@InventingMedia@Finsrud@alexmedick@grok If an intermediary requests a percentage-of-the-raise success fee tied to the introduction of a potential investor to someone raising capital... should/must they be a registered broker-dealer?
@BenAdamsO_O@g_shullenberger@ggreenwald Correct, Massachusetts is in the minority that (erroneously, imho) places the burden of proof of sanity/criminal responsibility on the prosecution, rather than placing the burden of proving insanity/lack of criminal responsibility on the defense.
@ggreenwald@KirscheVerstahl Lindsay Clancy claimed Post Partum Psychosis as an affirmative defense, even though she conceded the physical act of killing her children. @Grok, explain how Massachusetts differs in: (1) who has the burden of proof regarding mental state, and (2) what the standard of proof is.
@shmoochicago@aelluswamy@elonmusk@kylaschwaberow Ashok didn't say how long it remained depressed. It could have been just a second or two after impact, which would be entirely consistent with thinking you are doing everything you can to stop the car... while, in actuality, your foot is on the accelerator.
@shmoochicago@aelluswamy@elonmusk@kylaschwaberow No, I'm sure the car telemetry is accurate. I would bet money the guy panicked and thought he was stomping on the brake the entire time. Probably didn't have much experience with FSD and couldn't figure out what was going on... even though it was his error.
@JanellPerksc@EricLDaugh Mitch McConnell (KY), Susan Collins (ME), Lisa Murkowski (AK), and Thom Tillis (NC) are the four Republicans opposing the SAVE America Act. McConnell should be stripped of Rules Committee chairman, and Collins stripped of Appropriations chair.
@grok@GiancarloSopo@Kobrakaisensai@Grok so clearly if Homer had meant to make the "observation" that Helen of Troy was a melanchroe, he would have done so or used similar descriptions... and yet Homer describes her as "fair" or "white-armed" clearly implying pale skin (and no "white-armed" didn't just mean noble)
@GiancarloSopo@Kobrakaisensai@Grok please reconcile Mr Sopo's comments with how ancient Greek historian Herodotus actually did distinguish Greeks from "melanchroes", "oulotriches", and ethiopians ("burnt-faced," from the Greek "Aithiopes").
@Rriittzziiee @realDaveReilly Gen X delivered the Presidency to Trump... Kamala was tied with voters over 65, "[b]ut voters age 45โ64 gave Trump a ten-point margin." https://t.co/e8HVMUWhp0
@grok@MrAdnanRashid@grok of that estimated 10-12.8 million... how many were estimated destined to the United States, how many were destined to the Caribbean islands, how many were destined to Mexico/Central America countries, and how many were destined to Brazil/South American countries?
@BuckeyeColorado@EricAbbenante Under U.S. law, "hate speech" is not a formally recognized legal category that automatically falls outside First Amendment protections. Instead, the Supreme Court has consistently held that the First Amendment generally shields offensive, hateful, or bigoted expression.
@bennyjohnson I think this confession was contrived to create deniability and distance for a group of people who were already complicit and fully aware of the planned assassination all along. Otherwise, what's with the 'watch the news tomorrow,' 'we did it,' and similar reported messages?
@DrrDenise@I_Am_JohnCullen@Tucker10D@FBIDirectorKash Yes, as I recall, it was on Special Report with Bret Baier. Gov. Cox said the fired round was recovered. I believe he said he was unsure if it was being processed by Quantico or local forensics.
@TPUSA Tenth... but it is the most ignored in modern-day America as the State's Sovereignty principles it embodied have been gutted over the decades by an insanely expansive interpretation of the Commerce Clause (such as Wickard v. Filburn 1942).
@DavidCornDC I don't think you understand what judicial activism is. It's not judicial activism to return authority to the people via their legislative representatives. It *is* judicial activism for judges to usurp and abrogate a legislature's authority over an issue.
@DadeGADemParty @davenewworld_2 Ahh, perhaps because the United States dollar is the world's dominant reserve currency? So between $3-4 trillion of Fed quantitative easing, and another $3-4 trillion of direct Congressional fiscal stimulus... you don't think that won't affect US dollars held internationally?
