@elonmusk Crimes are sometimes treated differently when there is a disparity in power, age and education between the victims and perpetrators. In some cases, victims are coerced into acts they wouldn't normally commit, such as in forced suicide (which is illegal in some countries).
@IngrahamAngle@SpeakerJohnson Persons who suspect or have reason to believe child abuse has occurred still have a duty to report it, even if they were not directly involved in the acts. It may be mandatory for people who work for organizations that deal with young people. Willful blindness is not a defense.
@IngrahamAngle@SpeakerJohnson The DOJ should release the files to bring an end to this chaos. Most victims of sexual/child abuse also became victims of powerful systems (churches, families or organizations). Most ended up with VERY SERIOUS problems later on in life. This nonsense has the same pattern.
@Reese10Angel The SKY should have won that game. With that said, they re' playing against professional players, so they can lose or win on any given day. My take: They are missing very easy shots around the rim and excuses for it will only produce more excuses, not wins. Put in the work! IMO
@Reese10Angel Watch The Movie: "The Skin Game." You must be grounded in your belief God now that you have skin in the game. Some will alway try to get under your skin to produce long-term traumas in your life. Forgive those (busybodies) who do wicked deeds to you.
@Reese10Angel The SKY should have won all those games with the best players in the league. Basketball is a team sport, so the team will win or lose as an organization. One person can't beat a whole organization ( the sum of its parts). Brush off the rust to prepare for the next game.
@elonmusk Question: Are some of your so called allies laughing with you or at you? People who have historically shorted stocks are not looking at a long-term growth propositions for the companies or the US economy. The real growth is in the disenfranchized or poor communities. IMO
@elonmusk This satuation is also making the US appear weak across the globe. Russia and Ukraine are getting real wartime experience while we are jawboning other nations, running from Russia and training green soldiers.
@elonmusk In chaos there is often a pattern. The pattern seems to be a new form of colonialism, meaning a developed country trying to force a weaker country to give up its naural resources and sovereignty in exchange for perceived help. Ukraine is just one target of this pattern.
@elonmusk I think the real argument is centered around what is known as the Laffer Curve and maximization. What tax rates will maximize tax revenues? Some think tax cuts will result in more consumer spending and increase demand. Some are for programs that support the disenfranchised/poor.
@elonmusk With a million things the President has to worry about a stupid email is no one of them. If you want to know what employees are doing and resources they are using then implement a system equal to the IBM Maximo Asset Management Suite and stop wasting people's time with nonsense.
@elonmusk Self evaluations with basic bullet points will not be very useful to anyone. An upgrade of the IBM Maximo software would be a better long-term solution to monitor projects and people (resources). The program may need to be tweeked to centralize it to DOGE.
@elonmusk DEI is institutionalized racism against who exactly? Before the 70s most companies would not even hire monorities or women in the workplace. The civil rights movement gained rights for all not some. Quotas based on race is the only thing illegal not diversity.
@elonmusk@realDonaldTrump There also should not be a tax dividend until the $37 T in US debt is under control. One similar augrument concerned corporations borrowing funds to pay shareholders huge dividends. Some also received reduced corporate taxes due to their capital stuctures.
@elonmusk@realDonaldTrump That statement doesn't make any sense. Who wants to know how many toilets a janitor cleaned last week? Some jobs are seasonal or cyclical, meaning the workloads may change from quarter to quarter. Why would the President want to be preoccupied with micromanaging the gorvernment?
@elonmusk Any saving from DOGE should be used to pay down the $37 T in US debt. The bondholders are owners of our assets unless the US plans not to pay them and go to war. Trying to negotiate the debt down in the future will only cause a technical default with more borrowing cost problems.
@elonmusk The reality: The government is no longer able to finance many low priority programs. Cuts must be made somewhere on its financial statements. The audits are necessary to allow decisionmakers to make critical decisions.
