@DavidBane1776@j_fishback The difference is that when you hire a contractor to build a deck, the outcome of that project is entirely within the control of the contractor. In a legal case like this one, there is another side with their own lawyers, and an arbiter who decides the outcome.
@atrupar The unemployment rate is not calculated by counting vacant job positions. It’s calculated by dividing the number of unemployed job seekers by the total number of the workforce. People who have been deported do not affect the unemployment rate.
@BriannaWu It was Egypt’s constitution, not the Muslim Brotherhood’s charter. The MB was in power in Egypt at the time. Amal was working for the Int’l Bar Association’s Human Rights Institute. They asked her to review the Constitution. Not draft it. George was embellishing.
@megbasham It has stopped many. This is the first mass shooting in Australia in how long? Years? It’s so uncommon that it’s a global news story. In the US, these barely make the news now, they’re so common
@TonyLaneNV Comparative fault is a thing. They both bear some responsibility here. Also, the cyclist did slow down before entering the crossing, and the entire area was brightly lit, so to say “no visibility” is just wrong.
@DavidMastio@ReidDA Section 1 of the 14th Amendment does not mention race. Had the drafters of that amendment intended it to apply only to race, they could have easily written it to make that clear. That they chose not to limit it in that way cannot be ignored.
@BuzzPatterson I. Don’t. Care. It’s. Not. His. House. It’s. Our. House. If I rent my house out to someone, they don’t get to do major renovations without my permission, even if they’re paying for it.
@EricLDaugh Why would you believe Trump here? He just makes stuff up like this all the time. More likely is that Trump received word that Republicans are about to break.
@greggnunziata It literally is short for “ANTI-FAscist”. The meaning in Germany in the 1930s was the same as it is today. It’s a philosophy of opposing fascism.
@tedcruz You have a majority is both houses of Congress. You could have suspended the filibuster and passed whatever you wanted. You are more interested in scoring political points than in governing. This shutdown is on you. All of you.
