Her district is red enough to support her batshit insanity. Georgia as a state as a whole, especially one that goes into a runoff, probably not. They did reject weirdos like Kelly Loefler, after all.
But I’m usually very bad at calling things like this.
“Due process guarantees the rights of a criminal defendant facing prosecution, not an illegal alien facing deportation.”
Even if that were true, a deported person is generally sent back to their country a free (wo)man. Unless the destination country has other business with them, they’re free to return to life as usual. When you are paying someone else to imprison them, it’s not deportation. When you do it without due process, it’s a concentration camp.
I’m not Canadian, but I’ve previously known that in the US you only have to live in the same state as the district you’re representing. An argument in favor of that concept (that I admittedly just made up) is that congressional boundaries get rewritten every decade. In theory, this could be used to push a rep out of Congress if someone really wanted to, if they were required to live in district. State boundaries are much more stable so this is pretty good immunity to that.
HCR 1013, which would proclaim in Oklahoma that “Christ is King,” arguing that it excludes Oklahomans who identify with other religions as well as Oklahomans who are not religious
So… Christ is who Christians worship. Glad the legislature could clear that up for us.
Basic geography could go a long ways, if people believe you. At this point people were exploring the world trying to find the spice Islands, but didn’t know WTF they were doing. Magellan navigating the strait that would be named after him was impressive at its time, but now we know the best way from Europe to Asia (and spices and stuff) by sea without any modern canals is by going around Africa. Like, it still sucks and it’s a long trip but it’s doable compared to going to damn near Antarctica.
This assumes I don’t die, can communicate, and am not in the then-unpopulated (and quite landlocked) current location of Denver, Colorado.
Edit: bonus fact: if a sailor managed to smuggle a knapsack full of cloves back, it was worth about as much a house
I think you’d sometimes see it as “rapeseed oil” - still not great, but better.
That oil is more commonly called canola, by the way. Canadian Oil, Low Acid. Used for the same reason the motto was changed.
Totally with you there (probably a big selection bias on Lemmy, of course). Especially the draft. It’s… Announcements of people getting job offers. Yay?
That said, look up some of Jon Bois’s videos on YouTube if you have some time. I only learned about him because he’s a delight on Bluesky, and he has a kind of interesting/entertaining way to tell stories about sports. At least, the couple videos I just started watching have been!
That said, it may not be the best for current events.
The original is blocked in the US, but I found this and it seems to work: https://youtu.be/tDYjZ36IGfE
Definitely a pretty good representation! You know, as good as you can get when your instrument is grooved asphalt and rubber
It’s a different song that I don’t recognize, but it does sound correct for whatever it’s trying to be, if that makes sense
Congratulations. You did a great job ignoring the rest of what I had to say.
If he were capable of embarrassment that might do it, but apparently that’s not happening here
And tying it to the Bluesky system? Not sure the cost of that (I swear I saw it was a potential monetization they were looking into) but also the time to figure it out isn’t practical for everyone.
Because the headline is kinda shit: they’re no longer doing international shipments direct to consumer worth more than $1000, because US customs is making things so screwy.
For what it’s worth on the voice thing, assuming that’s what “he sounds like that” refers to: https://www.npr.org/2025/01/29/nx-s1-5279176/rfk-voice-spasmodic-dysphonia
That’s the result of a rare neurological condition known as spasmodic dysphonia, which has afflicted Kennedy for decades.
If you’ve got any evidence that it was heroin that caused that neurological condition I’m all ears, but we have a pretty reliable source on this one.
That’s great for an organization like NPR which may have the resources to tie its own domain name into Bluesky. For some freelance reporter or otherwise verifiable person, I’m not sure it’s quite so practical.
Colorado’s Supreme Court found that he engaged in an insurrection and was therefore ineligible. Then SCOTUS basically said “uh, this gives me the federal feelsies because it’s a federal office, so Congress has to do it”
Feels like all Congress has to do is say that the first term didn’t count. But to be honest I can see poor health catching up to him first anyway.
If they are, and there isn’t anything to display it, how are we to know what’s been vetted and what’s slipped through the cracks? Especially on a new account?
At first I thought it was Instacart with fewer things available. After reading the
press release“news article” it looks like it’s a way for people to buy things (no doubt at inflated gig economy app prices) for a party they aren’t necessarily hosting. Basically chipping in however many dollars but with a thing “attached” to it.Yeah, if I’m hosting a party I’m not making people use that.
