Tell them they can perform under the Palestinian flag 🤣

that deep, dark internet, the Reddit culture, and these other dark places of the internet

Lmao

I think the point about due process is the key here

I was looking for something that would trigger on normally protected speech, and I don’t think that’s in there. The term “aiding and abetting” is a common legal standard, so I wouldn’t call it vague, but placing the onus on the individual whose passport has been revoked to show that the Secretary of State was wrong makes it ripe for abuse and harassment.

As usual the headlines are sensational and misleading, even if there is a real issue.

IANAL but where is the “thought police” part? I see a specific exception for the first amendment. Material support is defined, and doesn’t mention speech or advocacy.

I suppose if they declared that a bunch of liberal and/or Democrat non-profits were terrorist organizations, then this means they could also take one’s passport, but I’m pretty sure losing your passport would be a minor addition to the general disaster that would entail.

As much as I would love to see Netanyahu in ICC custody, this is a mistake. It is not any mayor’s place to be arresting foreign leaders granted visas by the state department.

He’s a comedian. Is this a joke? How can someone honestly think this?

Okay but the studies I’ve seen suggest that EV batteries typically last between 15 and 20 years.

How is that different from any other used car?

Work on your critical thinking skills. If you propose a policy that saves 10 people’s lives, and I respond with a proposal that saves 10 other people’s lives and increases the odds of winning additional power in the next election cycle thus enabling you to help yet more people, do you respond with “your’e a MAGA traitor, and want these 10 innocent people to die”? Not if you’ve got any sense.

If you want to convince me that this is not political malpractice, you’d have to convince me that this is literally the best they can do; that there is no other policy they could choose to pursue that would do at least as much good and improve their electoral prospects. I find that hard to believe.

I think when choosing what you will spend your political leverage on, particularly in an election cycle that’s liable to determine whether we have free and fair elections for the foreseeable future, you pick something that 1) does good for people, 2) makes your opponent look bad, and 3) makes you look good. This proposed option only ticks one of those boxes.

Cleaning up Republicans’ messes will only keep the Republicans in power, and you out, until you no longer even have the power to do that.

My god these people are terrible at politics. This neither protects our democracy, nor gives them anything to run on in the midterms. “Something bad didn’t happen because of us,” is almost impossible to campaign on.

Hell, they’re practically protecting Republicans because now there won’t be 20 million Americans who have personally experienced how wretched the Republican agenda really is. And disproportionately Republican voters!

Schumer has to go.

Unless text is removed to add the picture, nobody loses anything by adding additional tools that help some people.

She literally said they were too ignorant of election law to be held accountable for signing and filing false documents.

That usually doesn’t fly https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignorantia_juris_non_excusat

I’m kinda surprised how willing this court is to burn its own credibility for small inconveniences to the Trump regime. I expected them to sell out the rule of law at some point, but I figured they’d do it for something big, with a maximum show of courtly gravitas. This is just clumsy and obvious.

I’ll begin by confessing that I also tend to apply philosophies situationally, but I’d be curious how you’d respond to the criticism that such an approach sort of gives away the game that philosophical applications are all post hoc rationalizations for our existing, non-rational preferences. I’ve found that to be the strongest criticism of such an approach.

Trump doesn’t care if he’s smart or not. Trump traded dropping out of the race and endorsing himself in exchange for HHS. Purely a political transaction.

I think you should stop writing post titles

Maybe the Amish were on to something.

I bet Chicago could use Bernie in the next couple weeks. Maybe dust off the old civil disobedience.
