Lots of it doesn’t even go through Amazon warehouses these days.

But what other options are there? The ballots were destroyed, so there’s no way to know who to contact to let them know it happened.
Since the ballots hadn’t been collected, there’s no way for the state to know the identity of voters who dropped off ballots that were destroyed in the fire because those ballots were destroyed.
That’s simply not true anymore.
We recently got straight-up scammed on Amazon by a third-party seller on Amazon, and they won’t do jack about it. They said it’s between us and the third party.
I’m done with their bullshit. They’re nothing but an expensive front page for alibaba drop-shippers these days.
Just like how you sign a credit card payment and those are always verified?
Maximum wealth law. Once you’re worth more than 100 million, 100% of any new income goes to a designated fund for social programs.
100 million is enough money that there is still no real limit to how pampered your life can be, so there’s no argument that the rule would hurt anyone.
He can golf every day. Hell - I’d throw a few thousand a year into a crowdfunding campaign to keep him fat and happy playing golf every day for the rest of his life if it would keep him out of politics.
I don’t even care about justice anymore. I just want him gone at any price.
If it doesn’t do it on its own, one of 2 things will happen:
A lot of them simply won’t believe he actually lost, so he wouldn’t be overturning anything, but correcting.
He can investigate crimes as President, but he cannot attempt to circumvent the counting of the vote.
Certifying the vote is the duty of the legislative branch (Pence was acting as President of the Senate - a legislative role), and if it needs to be stopped due to legal reasons that’s the jurisdiction of the judicial branch.
Separation of Powers requires that the President cannot officially act in that situation.
Furthermore, he didn’t investigate any allegations that people had voted for Trump illegally.
But the biggest smoking gun on whether it was the President or Candidate Donald Trump is that Trump specifically excluded the official White House counsel from his meetings but did include his personal and campaign lawyers. That says that not only was he acting outside his official duties, but that he knew he was acting as a candidate.
Nope. That ruling doesn’t apply here because he was acting as a candidate for the Presidency at the time.
A President cannot act on behalf of their campaign in an official capacity.
I still can’t believe nothing substantive came of that.
It was incredibly harmful to the reputation and stock value of multiple pharmaceutical companies as well as Twitter. And then the greedy pharma assholes had to publicly announce they were still price-gauging people for life-sustaining medicine, making the reputational damage even worse.
If someone hasn’t made a 3D printable model for IR glasses I think I may make one this weekend.
With a model file, 20 cents of filament, a few LEDs, some wire, and a watch battery these could be made DIY for a few dollars after the printer cost. You can get a decent 3D printer for 200 bucks these days.
They won’t be as stylish, but they’d do the job just fine.
Everyone looks at extremes.
Yeah, a populace armed with AR-15s and Glocks can’t fight bombers, but when a government reaches the point where bombers are being used against the population you’ll also have a military split, so there will be heavy equipment on both sides.
Imagine something smaller in scale, like if the governor of Texas decided to start execution of liberals while Trump was President. Trump probably wouldn’t directly take part, but also wouldn’t send in the military to stop the governor.
That’s where small arms for civilians becomes relevant.
They’re also relevant because they’re distributed. With 100 million+ armed households, there’s no safe way to be a tyrant.
Trump was almost killed by 1 person who planned poorly. If there were millions of armed people moved to that level of violence it would be impossible to govern without committing the kind of atrocity that would cause a military split/coup.
How is voting for her the best option. Literally all she can do is benefit the Republicans by pulling votes from the Dems. Hell, in Georgia they’ve literally ruled that votes for her won’t be counted even though she’s on the ballot.
Her winning the US Presidential election is less-likely than winning the power all 25 consecutive times by finding the winning ticket on the ground at random truck stops in Malaysia.
Don’t do it on Election Day. Have our spread across early voting and election day. It’ll alleviate the long waits on election day itself and allow employers to stay open since not everyone is off the same day.
If it were a wheel which way would it roll?
The downside is it probably won’t significantly increase voter turnout. People hate voting negative of long lines. Giving everyone the same day off to vote would just make it that much worse.
Very few people can honestly say that the lack of a voter holiday is the reason they don’t vote.
I live in Texas, where voting is famously difficult, but even I have 5 separate locations whets I can vote 7 days a week during early voting. The 21st through the 27th available times are Monday through Friday 8-5, Saturday 7-7, and Sunday is 9-3. The 28th thriving the first is 7-7.
During those time periods it’s rare to have a line at all, and there’s a ton of groups that will take you to the polling station if you don’t have transportation.
If someone is too lazy to take 10 minutes to vote during early voting, giving them a day off on election day won’t change their behavior.
If the goal is to just give people another day off, that’s fine. Just say that. If the goal is to get people to vote, you should tie the benefit to voting.
Should they though? The average lifespan of a car is 12 years. Even if they got someone to pay the subscription the entire time, that’s like 5% of the value of the car, spread over a length of time that makes it almost worthless. They could more easily charge an extra 1500 for the car, which is more money and it’s money they get now and isn’t picked apart by inflation.
It’s not especially good financially in the short or long term and is harmful to the brand image and customer loyalty.
Whoppers never make it to the bowl on my house. They’re too good.
