So just to be clear, WHEN HE WAS PRESIDENT, he held rallies all over the country and then hasn't paid for the expenses the cities incurred due to staffing etc?? I wonder if he or his campaign will even respond to this. It's not like these are allegations, the cities LITERALLY have a bill and have tried to get it paid multiple times
Hi @EffectivelyHidden! The mod team just recently finalized some posting guidelines which you can find in the sidebar or a pinned thread in this magazine. One of the guidelines is to begin your titles with a label so readers know whether it is news, opinion, editorial, or analysis. Please add a label to the title in future posts. Thank you!
Hi @pinkdrunkenelephants (great username, by the way), could you please take a moment to edit your title to add a label? It looks like "analysis" would be the best one for this article.
The mod team just recently finalized (for now, we will review later based on community feedback) some posting guidelines which you can find in the sidebar or magazine info page. One of the guidelines is to begin your titles with a label so readers know whether it is news, opinion, editorial, or analysis. Thank you!
There are no rules displayed on the side bar for me. There is a short synopsis of what the sub is about and some stats under that. Using edge as a browser.
Thanks for your reply. I see that you're on a different instance than our magazine is hosted on. OP however is on our instance and should be able to see the sidebar.
It's useful to know that other federated users aren't seeing the sidebar, so I greatly appreciate you bringing this up. I will add the rules to a pinned thread for our magazine.
Got it! I'll stick to the exact headline in the future.
(In my defense, I do think the title is better than the original headline, which makes it sound like there was only ever 1 black teen lynched in Mississippi and that it happened recently.)
“I wouldn’t want anybody to … make me a wedding website?” he continued, sounding a bit puzzled but good-natured about the whole thing. “I’m married, I have a child—I’m not really sure where that came from? But somebody’s using false information in a Supreme Court filing document.”
Up to this point, Smith had never designed any wedding website. (In fact, her website six months prior to the lawsuit being filed in 2016 does not include any of the Christian messaging that it did shortly afterward and today, archived versions of the site show.)
Democrats constantly looking for ways to subvert the court because it isn’t just acting as their unelected 2nd legislature and actually respects the constitution.
Hahahahaha, what's it like living in bizarro world where the court actually respects the constitution instead of bending over backwards to invalidate previous rulings for partisan (conservative) ends like it does in the real world?
It's amazing how people will twist logic into a pretzel to not acknowledge the clear and open (lack of) ethics issues facing the court.
A massive “oh no, anyway” moment. The only reason people are so enraged over this is because they need propaganda to throw at their opponents. Nobody making an honest argument believes that every school must carry every book available to them. It’s entirely normal for every library to remove things from it’s collection, especially so when that library is designed to serve a specific community such as a school.
Same bot fascist who posted in another thread. Either you're ruZZian or you're extremely dumb (or trolling). Books shouldn't be banned, only a fascist says that.
Pretty sure this poster is not a bot. There are plenty of people out there who sincerely believe, shall we say, things that are factually incorrect. There are also tons of trolls. Could be either.
It is very secure. Washington state has been using it for years. Every single citizen gets a ballot mailed to them for every election. It does wonders to increase voter turnout (of course, high voter turnout is largely detrimental for Republicans in elections, so they don't like this practice).
Actually it is probably more secure than voting machines.
I have worked as a signature verifier for two elections in my state.
There is a physical ballot and signature.
For signature verification alone there are at least two people reviewing together each signature submitted with a ballot to match with multiple past signatures on file. The voting portion of the ballot is not seen by us, we only review the signature so there is no way to flag a signature based on how you vote. Any flagged signature goes up to further review by superiors.
Ballots with votes that are not crystal clear to the tally machines (if you put an x in the vote bubble instead of filling it out, if you used a pencil/colored pen instead of a blue or black pen, erasures, etc) are physically reviewed in person by a team of two people and if still uncertain flagged and sent to review by superiors.
Ballots put in the tally machines are manned by at least two people.
Cameras are placed throughout the workplace.
All ballots are locked behind chain link spaces when not in process.
The ballot processing stations are in a secure space open space, anyone can come and watch as we work. You just can’t get closer than about 8 to 12 feet of the work spaces cordoned off by rope.
The tldr, a lot of measures are in place to make sure everything is in the open, machines and people are double checking each other to prevent machine/human error/bias, and there is a evidence trail of paper/witnesses/logs/recording.
Ooh, I can get mainstream CNN neoliberal bullshit on the fediverse too! What’s next a Rachel Maddow community where we talk about how great Hillary Clinton and Neera Tanden are?
This comment has nothing to do with the content of the article. You're posing in a community to discuss politics in general. If you have an issue with any particular point the article makes, feel free to explain.
I personally agree with the perspective that we shouldn't elect people who make claims about infectious disease which are easily refuted by science.
Kennedy this week drew backlash for asserting without evidence that COVID-19 was “ethnically targeted” — a claim infectious disease and ethics experts refuted. Kennedy was caught on video by a reporter saying Chinese people and Ashkenazi Jews were not targeted as much as other races, including Black and white people.
