@gmusser That's probably why they chose it. They knew it wouldn't cause a panic because nobody would believe it. 😂
@MarcC @Teri_Kanefield Exactly. It's the only explanation for all the overtly criminal activity and damn-the-torpedoes behavior. If we win all is forgiven.
Wasn't it Eastman who admitted in an interview that "yes, our intention was to overthrow the government"?

Trump posting about how he's been "indicated" again. I wonder how long before we hear about the journalists conjugating in the courtroom, and the dysentery spreading among the GOP. Jack Smith is a real albacore around his neck! It's a total stagmire!
@Infoseepage Suffering through it is also unhealthy.

I’ve logged into Threads a total of three times. Each time I’ve been struck by how bad a job they did at building a Mastodon app. It really is the worst implementation of microblogging I’ve seen, with no actual way to see what people you follow post, just an endless feed of celebrities. It’s bonkers.
@shoq Yeah, it's not going to look good 30 years from now.

“Simply put, it is not acting like a court; it will not be treated indefinitely by friend or foe as if it were one.”
Interesting piece on what a mess the #SupremeCourt has become and how some of its rulings might get defied given its rapidly diminishing authority in the eyes of so many across the political spectrum

Thanks, Alito.
42,536,385 more Americans have reported contracting #COVID, and 297,268 have died since the Supreme Court rejected the vaccine mandates. #ThanksAlito
@BruceMirken I remember when one criminal indictment would end your career. Even an allegation of hanky panky on your yacht would tank your career.
@msavoritias @KiffinEileen Yes, it's good to remember that some of the founders of the U.S. felt that people shouldn't be able to vote unless they owned some land. They felt that if you didn't own any land you didn't have any skin in the game, so to speak, so your vote might not be in the best interest of the country.
Fortunately, that faction didn't get their way.

The #German automaker Mercedes-Benz has completely disconnected #Russian dealers from its software.
Access to online systems for maintenance and troubleshooting is also limited.
The lack of official software can increase the time it takes to repair and maintain cars, as well as…

@ukrdef Penalty? I should think the Russians would be proud to show off their high-tech air defense capabilities. Or maybe not.

@jtheseamstress I should add that this had me in stitches.
(Hey, someone had to say it. Please don't hit me.)
@jtheseamstress Yes, shuttles. smh.
@abellware Yeah, but it's much more difficult to become super-rich doing that.

Turns out: "Portland police relied too heavily on tear gas, projectiles, hand-thrown rubber-ball explosives and other distraction devices that harmed peaceful people in the crowd during 2020′s social justice protests and riots, outside examiners found." https://www.oregonlive.com/news/2023/08/portland-protests-police-relied-too-much-on-tear-gas-rubber-ball-grenades-outside-review-finds.html?utm_campaign=theoregonian_sf&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter
