The problem with admonishments from groups like this is that they’ve so covered themselves with shit trying to maximize profits their words don’t mean much when they actually have something meaningful to say.

Trump nominee + Bush senior nominee. Couldn’t find it in this article.
News organizations and the judiciary might want to pretend who appointed a judge is unimportant to understanding a news story because they all strive to do good objective law, but that’s a fantasy.
A pardon is just words in the same way a law is. Someone has to implement them, and in this case it would require state officials to act rather than people who can be fired if they don’t do it.
This is insane and stupid and tells me there’s no one involved in the process that has ever managed a software project before, which makes it doubly insane and stupid.
Of course a fresh out of college hotshot thinks they can complete a major coding project in 3 months. That’s why no one takes their estimates seriously, not announces them to the world.
Man, my broad social-studies type learning cut off around World War II out of fear of touching anything politically controversial and this guy is out here just regurgitating propaganda to justify the American gestapo currently kidnapping dissidents.
Cool that you elevated a subjective quote by noted partisan liar Elon Musk into your title CNN.
That they were happy being in a chat with someone only identified as JG or whatever is the whole reason this problem occurred. So now they’re all going to obfuscate their identities and make not really knowing who you’re talking to the norm so the leaks might be slightly less identifiable.
It depends on if the shortfall in rent is coming from something server related. If stux is pulling a good salary for his hosting work and the shortfall just came from a different job falling through, that’s a fine time to ask for donations, but not something people would feel warrants shutting down the server rather than taking out a loan.
I’m fine having the burden spread unevenly. I don’t mind donating more so that a free platform is available to anyone who wants to use it. Whether something is funded by donations or fees is separate from whether the cost of people’s time should be included in the revenue target.
I assume he’s applying donations to the server costs first, then considers extra as profit/salary. We should be considering developer time as a core part of server costs, but I think people would react poorly if server donations went to personal expenses before server expenses.
I think one of the best thing hosts could do is be transparent about costs and how much time maintenance takes and what sort of effective wage they are getting.
I think the journalist just went by his initials as did a few other people in the chat, so it could be as dumb as just having someone with the same initials. Which is notably not how government systems work, for exactly the reason that you need to know exactly who you’re communicating with and the system should make mistakes like this unlikely.
Obfuscating your identity makes sense of you’re trying to talk to leakers or doing something shady and want to allow some deniability should the conversation be compromised. Which begs the question of why so many of them already had their Signal accounts set up that way.
No one is upset about the incompetence threatening our ability to murder Yemenis, they’re attacking them for being incompetent broadly. It could have been plans for arming Ukraine or where our spy satellites are looking and the reaction would be the same: “look at these incompetent MAGAs fucking up governing” with an extra glee at being able to tag it as “national security” that conservatives lean into so heavily.
And they weren’t incompetent at murder. The murders went through just fine, because very little of the actual operation was handled by this crowd of idiots and some combination of a US citizen being rightly scared of his government and assuming our murders are justified and should not be hindered.
None of this is to say liberals aren’t morally bankrupt about our well oiled murder machine, just that they’re not angry about the risk to the murder operation. They don’t care one way or another whether some Arabs got murdered. Haven’t before and don’t now.
JFC, you can absolutely make selecting someone contingent on their plan to vote against an postmaster general intent on destroying the service. What do you think the process is, just evaluating the cut of their jib and crossing his fingers hoping they’ll advance his policy interests?
He had no control over the postmaster general. He only had control over a majority of the people who vote for him…
Pardons don’t make the crime they committed legal.
A security clearance does not grant you access to information, it’s a minimum prerequisite before someone else decides you have an active need to know something and then shares the information.
During Biden’s term they got even more judges confirmed. He should have knocked off a few Supremes so he could match him there, but I’m just pointing out that it’s not like Republican terms are particularly productive.
Murkowski? McCain (specifically thinking about ACA)?
The Republicans have been stopped by their own politicians playing ‘maverick’ before. You forget how little got done in the Senate during Trump’s first turn.
Not “rather than identity politics”. What about that makes you think they’re not about social justice? They’re dedicated progressives, not class reductionists.
A multi-racial party doesn’t mean you downplay racism, it means the party has solidarity across races. That’s what solidarity is.
What is that minimizing title? He’s talking about an invasion of conquest. Call it that.
