This story is bananas. Florida charges people $50 a day for their stay in prison. The state wants this woman to pay $127,000 because she was sentenced to 7 years—even though she only served 10 months.

A perfect example of how the gov’t sets people up to fail upon release.

If Seinfeld—the beige of comedy—thinks good material is cut because of 'the extreme left' and 'PC crap,' he has more than enough money to fund anti-woke tours and TV shows.

He won't, because he knows it's all just 'tee hee, triggered?' tripe nobody will actually pay to watch.

There's no evidence of this quote being by Orwell, the Orwell society doesn't believe it's his:

TRUMP WANTS TO EXECUTE PEOPLE, ADMIRES DICTATORS WHO DO EXECUTE PEOPLE, AND HAS LAWYERS WHO ARGUE FOR IMMUNITY IF HE EXECUTES PEOPLE.

Congrats to New York Times Pitchbot, who last night was effectively awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

You can toggle over any dot on our map to find the campus name, number of arrests, prosecuting agency, prosecutor's response, and prosecutor's election year.

Prosecutors hold enormous power: they can brand these protesters with a criminal record for life—or let them go.

Unintentionally perfect summation of what managers really mean when they complain about 'quiet quitting.' The employee is doing their job, but the manager doesn't want that, they want the emotional rush of being powerful and they're not getting it.

The 'lung float' test is being used to charge women with murder. Many experts say it's unreliable.

“There’s no way you can determine live birth versus stillbirth with this test,' said one doctor, who called the test “an outrageous breach of science.” propublica.org/article/is-lun…

Noem wants to pretend she's some sort of practical farmer, but by her own account she had a bad day and so shot an expensive selectively bred puppy then haphazardly killed a goat and let it rot in a gravel pit, rather than eating it. Both are a total waste, no farmer would do it.

Andrew Cuomo walking down the well-worn sexual misconduct → conservative pundit trail.

this is one of the most obvious attempts to misclassify an employee as a contractor I've seen in a while

The assassination of political rivals as an official act.

Understand what the Trump team is arguing for here. Take it seriously and at face value.

This is not a game.

Yup. Every time I've seen a former employer attempt to enforce a non-compete, it was because they were mad and wanted to punish the former employee for leaving, even if it was a waste of time & money.

This is not an appropriate use of our legal system. They should be banned.

This isn't some regrettable technicality or scrupulous adherence to defendants' rights, it's just bullshit. Weinstein claimed consent, the prosecutors introduced evidence of him victimizing others the exact same way, thereby showing intent. Appalling.

Remember: Weinstein was also convicted in 2022 in California and is serving a 16-year sentence there.

Christina Bobb, the Trump attorney who was just indicted in the Arizona fake elector scheme, was recently named as a senior counsel for 'election integrity' for the Republican National Committee.

The New York Times is not well.

We have 40,000 troops deployed to help him, we just approved another $15 billion in military aid for him, and the first thing he does is compare us to the Nazis and demand international intervention? To do what, arrest more Jewish protesters? jewishvoiceforpeace.org/2024/04/22/sta…
