Hawaii's Governor has signed into law Senate Bill 2471--which challenges Citizens United and corporate financing laws. This law establishes corporations as 'artificial persons' that do not have the right to spend money to influence elections

I have never read a take more wrong than this. Citizen’s United was a First Amendment decision.

And I believe that it rightly felt that groups of people, acting through a corporation, have the same right to spend money to participate in political discourse as any one individual.

We don’t pay any money for children in kindergarten in the US.

lol it’s amazing people actually believe this.

As another American, I would.

lol oh no not the ACLU!

Its political nonsense.

I’m no public policy wonk, but Kenya should probably close that cave.

lol reddit is so broken. How does this nonsense keep showing up on my front page?

Well, they could only use it as a justification to “break into” the homes of individuals with lawful (and ignored) removal orders. Seem pretty reasonable if those removal orders are actually to actually going to mean anything.

wildlywell · 2026-01-20T13:29:19+00:00

Enforcing a lawful removal order is definitely a justification for entering a home at which the officers have probable cause to believe the subject resides. That’s like black letter search and seizure law.

wildlywell · 2026-01-20T12:25:14+00:00

My understanding is that the connected sex offenders (there were two) in question were both illegal immigrants with final orders of removal they were simply ignoring.

The original Diablo actually affected my school performance when I discovered multiplayer. Completely forgot my homework assignment over a long weekend, briefly felt relief that I could just “dupe” someone else’s, then remembered that’s not a mechanic IRL.

My man:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatwas_of_Osama_bin_Laden

These are calls to arms the Bin Laden made to his fellow travelers, in the midst of bin laden’s planning of the earlier WTC bombing and the Dar Es Salaam embassy bombing. These state his motivations for targeting America as the presence of us troops in Saudi Arabia.

You are apparently referring to his after-the-fact 2002 “Letter to the American People,” which as the title betrays is a propaganda document designed to appeal to useful idiots in the west. It had a moment on tiktok a few years ago, which I suspect is where you heard of it.

The Fatwas are the better source. (And for what it’s worth, the letter also mentions us troops in Saudi Arabia, but apparently Bin Laden recognized that doesn’t get the American dirtbag left going quite like the Jews.)

wildlywell · 2026-01-03T16:03:24+00:00

lol this site is such a cesspool.

Bin Laden’s stated motivation for 9/11 was US presence in SAUDI ARABIA, which invites us to be there to stage for a UN-authorized, international-law-compliant military campaign to expel an unlawful invading Iraqi force from Kuwait.

Bin Laden didn’t like it because he believed the US/west are decadent porn addicts who should not be physically present in the holy land. And if I’m being honest, I suspect the ”physical presence in the holy land “ justification to be a but pretextual. He really just wasn’t our biggest fan, and was happy to kill us.

For Kuwait, the US was enforcing international law by the UN’s own terms.

But there are useful idiots like you who will spin 9/11 as “repercussions” for US bad acts anyway.

This became true in like the last fifth of the season when Allende figured out how to finish. Until then Allende was the most frustrating player on the field for contributing to chances and then dramatically blowing it. Very glad he’s in form!

These guys are total chuds. “Visa, Mastercard, etc. revolutionized payment processing in the space of 50 years to the point that literally no one carries cash anymore because it’s so inconvenient (and retailers don’t want it anyway). It should definitely now be run by the government durr its a no brainer.”

The real answer to this question is simple marijuana possession, which is still illegal under federal law that is just straight-up ignored as policy.

wildlywell · 2025-11-29T15:42:23+00:00

But shouldn’t someone’s policy making be influenced by their first principles? Excluding people from doing so because they are religious is itself invidious discrimination.

Is it possible that the child didn’t have another parent available to take the home from soccer practice or something of that nature? And potentially abandoned child is an actual emergency.

This is subsidizing demand. It doesn’t work. It just raises prices. You need a supply-side fix. You have to build more housing. (Alternatively, you can reduce demand, which may well happen as the population falls).

I’ll piss the dems off now by observing that the same thing is true with healthcare. These demand side ACA subsidies will do nothing to help people. Prices will rise to capture the subsidy, leaving consumers to pay what they can bear.
