that’s exactly what they’re going to do and they don’t care that they’re being hypocritical. They’ve already banning books and school courses, so this isn’t going to slow them down at all.

Which is really just saying “our prison system is too shitty to prevent the prisoners from harming each other”.

Jessica Jones fits this solid, especially with season 1 which deals with trauma from an abusive relationship and how to overcome that.

As always, taxpayers foot the bill and Paxton hasn’t been punished/learned anything. At least the FBI investigations are still ongoing. Can’t get rid of this guy soon enough.

You joke, but in some cases that is quite literally true. For example Reverse Freedom Rides. rather than Migrants, back during civil rights era, anti-black orgs in the south would buss black families up North as a political stunt to have the North “death” with them if they were so anti-segregation.
Can’t Imagine why DeSantis wouldn’t want people to know that….

Reply to comment by found_allover_again in Northern California sees more rain while the south dries out by bluelotus214
it’s up to the Government bodies (like NOAA and FEMA) to update their rainfall data/models, which is done via statistical analysis.
That being said, some states aren’t waiting around and are starting to require standards/regulations to meet their own updated/“future storm event” models. For example, in New Jersey stormwater design has to be updated, so any proposed roadway projects that were previously required to contain/handle something like the 25 year storm event now are required to meet the “Future 25-year storm event”.

so the initial headlines can read “So and So fined millions of dollars” and we all walk away feeling like justice was served when in reality it wasn’t.

ok so where do you draw the line? Should alleged mass shooters be able to keep their job? What about if one of your employees gets charged with Jerry Sandusky levels of pedophilia, are you going to keep them on until the verdict is read? Should Casey Anthony be allowed to keep her old job since she was found not guilty?

Least surprising thing ever.

Spoiler Alert: Colorado Springs Gay Bar isn’t gonna be where the elites are. It’s almost like the right uses the term “elite” as code for something else…

and how is it his fault other countries are deteriorating enough to make a larger portion of their population want to immigrate to the US? He doesn’t control the economic conditions for either country.
your argument is like blaming a weatherman for an increase in rain.

So correct me if i’m wrong, but if the goal/objective was to stop people from coming over the border, wouldn’t an increase in stops mean they’re doing a better job than they were previously?
I’ve never heard of a cop’s job on the line because arrests went up.

Yup. Trump is/was a symptom, not the cause. And while that symptom clearly made everything unequivocally worse, Biden and the dems campaigning on “everything going back to normal” without addressing the root issues is nothing more than a pausing the backsliding, if that.

Reply to State police investigating death at shooting scene outside Beaver County Walmart by Agreeable-Rooster-37
Fuck this headline. Even looking at the pure facts, it should read “State police investigate after after officer kills good samaritan that was helping shooting victim”
that’s what happened. the text in the article says that and supports that. Yet news media can’t help themselves and have to be as obscure as they possibly can with their language whenever the truth would paint the police in a bad light.

Kinda wild that democracy is backsliding so quickly and there is hardly any sense of alarm or urgency form those at the top. Other than saying “vote harder” they seem to have no plan on stopping this kind of shit.

Reply to TEA to take over Houston ISD after weeks of speculation by Bystander5432
> While some have accused the state of playing politics and meddling in local affairs, Morath shut down the idea and said he doesn’t think there’s any truth to it.
given that a school takeover seems like a fairly big deal and states like Texas have recently been pushing laws that expands the GOP’s control over school systems, it would be really great if they expanded on what the critics were saying and if there is any legitimacy to their claim, other than taking the governments word on it
