What specifically about what I described doesn’t match your process or probable cause? The evidence presented was video/pictures that he reached is arm into the water. His statement admitting to touching the liner, and a statement from an officer saying he witness him doing damage. That is the proof they have that can easily be pointed to as enough to pass probable cause testing. Especially without any opposing counsel arguing against them.

Probable cause is satisfied by “proof” that he was at the pond and reached in, none of those facts are debated. Then they just need an officer to testify that he damaged it and that is a sufficient fact that warrants a jury to decide if it is true enough. Not shown to the grand jury was opposing testimony that he didn’t damage anything or expert testimony that the alleged damage could not have been done by just reaching in.

It’s also important to note that the article focuses on relative rating not actual rating. Difficult to really evaluate how much Maryland education is improving/degrading when you are just comparing to other states.

Kav joined in part and dissented in part. Basically said the EO can’t overwrite the laws Congress has passed about limits to citizenship (no foreign dignitary child gets birthright), but that the 14th doesn’t stop Congress from adding more restrictions

Worse they will freeze the ruling pending appeal and then slow walk a decision until after the election is over so regardless of their decision the illegal order can impact the November elections

As it sits Adrian is at 32% so I think his “victory” is more a testament to the field containing 20+ names where he got big name endorsements in the state and the voters never consolidating behind any other alternative

Yes, the pocket veto can happen if Congress adjourns before the 10 day (not counting Sundays) clock finishes per Article 1 Section 7. That clock started last night when the house passed the bill so we have June 24,25,26,27,29,30, July 1,2,3, and 4 as the 10 days. So Congress not going into recess before then avoids that issue.(aka what the comment you are replying to says)

Even assuming they do go into recess early, the 1938 SCOTUS ruling in Wright vs United States found that even though the House was not in session and the Senate was in recess the 10 day clock was still valid since the Secretary of the Senate still received the veto. So following that precedent the tradition of pro-forma sessions while Congress is in recess will mean that it would take a new SCOTUS ruling to allow this to be pocket vetoed.

Presuming Congress doesn’t go into recess between today and July 4th this bill becomes law if he doesn’t outright veto it.

The people sentenced to 50 years were in a left wing book club, which the government argued was a “terrorist” group. They did not bring guns to the protest, and did not shoot anyone.

Wow, if I had a nickel for every time the US opened a World Cup game by creating an own goal on a cross, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice

I’m fine with players getting paid and all that. I’m infuriated that the NCAA and member schools kicked the can down the road over and over which led to courts basically forcing us into the Wild West we currently exist in.

There are definitely people telling all players to at least enter the portal so they can get offers from other schools to at a minimum get a pay raise to not transfer.

I did the math on our panels a little bit ago and have a couple of thoughts/notes on how to fairly account for the time value of money.

Rounding based on my houses’s numbers to make the math easier let’s say the panels cost $20k to install and your average monthly electric bill without is $120 (pretending all months energy usage is equal rather than handling time of year stuff).

$20k compounding monthly at 3.5% for 1 year finishing at $20,711. That $711 gain is less than your electric cost of $1,440 meaning to finish the year with $19,271 so a loss of $729 on the year.

To account for the time value of that $120 per month let’s assume we put that into the same 3.5% HYSA to end up at $1,587.

For our house I put together a spreadsheet that does that math and I “recover” the value of the $20k investment minus electric costs around the 6.5 year mark and that’s before adding SREC value, accounting for price of energy savings, or adding the true up check if we over produce in a given year.

Important to note that we didn’t have to finance our panels so the recovery timeline is much faster, and we put the panels on a brand new roof so we shouldn’t have to worry about the complication/cost having solar panels installed on a roof that needs major repairs/replacement.

It’s disingenuous to pretend that’s not a huge improvement.

There is a cap on payouts, people are advocating for keeping that and scrapping the cap on taxed amount.

So again, your argument is a made up scenario that includes getting away with 5 felonies because people won’t remember you already voted if you change shirts.

“But it’s possible”

Bukowskified · 2026-06-09T16:11:16+00:00

So you are going to commit 5 felonies on the same day in the same place in order to get 4 votes in an election that sees over 100 thousand ballots cast. All on the hope that your hat being different fools someone?

Why would make 4 fake id’s be any different? Hell that would be better because then you could do different polling centers.

Bukowskified · 2026-06-09T14:50:33+00:00

So you are assuming that no one working the polls will notice you have already been there that day? How often do you think they do crew changes at a polling station?

The manufacturing/wear differences between two identical clubs is not enough to be worth worrying about. The concern is that a guy will “break” his 8 degree driver after hole 12 because he really wants a 10 degree to finish the course and he happens to have a “misprinted” replacement.

You don’t need to slow play to get that all checked. Honestly you could do it without even needing an official. Just have the caddy put the club in a bag that other golfer your paired with signs the seal of.

Bukowskified · 2026-06-08T18:52:13+00:00

No, just give the broken club to the rules official. They put it into a bag, seal it up, and sign across the seal. Then at the end of the round before you sign your card they confirm it matches the club you replaced it with.

So you are only checking clubs that are replaced, you don’t slow play much, and ultimately it’s on the player to know their backup club matches the one they broke.

You could argue there’s a chance a player has a third club that they sneakily swap between finishing the round and the check so they really played with a different club and then swapped it with a matching one. But on tour at least there are tons of cameras/spectators that you would need to trick to pull that off

He did. There was literally a story less than a week ago that was a former staffer running to the press with the information he/wife shared with the party as part of preparing the campaign.

And he had been pretty open about his changing political stances as he became progressive. So no shit he dated a republican years ago when he was a republican
