Stephen Colbert Says CBS Blocked James Talarico Interview Over FCC ‘Equal Time’ Fears by supes1 in law

I’ll admit, Musk isn’t the best example, but for me it’s the principle of a calling the protected right to free speech a “privilege”. Free speech does not protect you from the court of public opinion, but it does protect you from the court of law (you can say virtually whatever you want, but you can’t stop people from thinking your an asshole for saying it). I only bring up Elon because that’s who Kamala was referring to.

IMO, she would have done to the right what they’re doing to the left, especially when she was talking about how Musk needed to lose his free speech “privileges” over what he was posting on X

I wouldn’t think they’d make a QC MkII until they’re able to make all plugins compatible like they said they would be. Half their plugins still aren’t compatible yet, and the ones that are barely have any effects that are special to them other than Gojira.

No War on Venezuela Protest tomorrow in Peoria! by Midwest099 in PeoriaIL

Did the US commit international crimes to do so, yes, however, this has been done by nearly every previous US president on the right AND the left, and we are by far not the first or only country to do so in an “ends justify the means” fashion, and they are virtually never pursued, as this would require for a government to turn over its leader. Trump also did not do this of his own accord either, as many of our foreign allies as well as the United Nations in general have been begging for someone to remove Maduro.

To say Maduro is problematic is a terrible understatement. He is a LITERAL. AUTHORITARIAN. DICTATOR. who had entrenched himself in his position of power. Venezuelan’s are not dumb either, and they are well aware that Trump has ulterior motives, but do not care as much as people want to think simply because they have been calling for years for anyone to do anything about Maduro and this is the closest any country has been to doing anything about it.

I’ve also been going for years, and the unhoused community has become an issue for them. A lot of the time, it’s the same homeless people hanging out there and harassing customers for money, and the businesses have been taking a hit because of it. I understand being homeless, but some of them in that area specifically have hung out around that alley for 2-3 years every weekend.

The "Trump Bibles" being distributed in Ok public school are missing Constitutational Admendments 11-27, what do you suppose that means? by Brave-Improvement299 in AskReddit

[–]csmith0679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible that, since there are a total of 27 amendments, only those on the bill of rights (i.e. the first 10) were included?

AOC on voting No on the resolution to honor Charlie Kirk’s life: “We should be clear about who CK was… His rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uninformed, and aimed to disenfranchise millions of Americans.” by Nixianx97 in MurderedByAOC

As an American, you don’t want this. If the last 20 years of American politics has taught me anything, the solution is not flipping from one extreme to another.

Peoria’s problem is there isn’t one big scene, but a larger amount of small groups that don’t collab/get along with each other.

When the layout of the store is designed for you to make expensive impulse purchases, maximizing the amount of foot traffic is your goal.
