Someone posted this one. I find this article interesting for another reason. This writer loved The Last Jedi and hated this, so he arbitrarily decides that Last Jedi outrage was "ugly" but this isn't. I'd argue the reaction is proportionately severe. https://t.co/yG9PNwe6xi
After just two days of online "critiques," I've come to the conclusion that the worst thing about going to a Rush show is that you're surrounded by thousands of Rush fans
@wbuxtonofficial@marshallpruett My unwritten rule is that “Bommarito” sounds like a limited-time-only menu item at Taco Bell that you’re gonna severely regret eating later
The easiest prediction in the world was that she was gonna kill it.
The second easiest was that every video of her was gonna bring out ALL the spergs in the replies.
Aaaand, here we are.
Seeing as how it went last time they found themselves in front of a notable nine-member judicial panel, this seems like a great way for the NCAA to prevent themselves from continuing to exist
Actually, the NCAA can very easily prevent Brendan Sorsby from playing lol
All it takes is one statement that reads “if Brendan Sorsby so much as plays a single down for Texas Tech, not only does Texas Tech forfeit every game of that season but their entire athletics program is permanently barred from competing for NCAA Championships in any sport.”
They could put that out there with about two minutes of work, and then enforce it by simply never allowing Texas Tech to be selected for the CFP or NCAA Tournament in any sport ever again.
Beyond a bunch of oil barons and the few thousand people who rely on their money in West Texas needing to find a new hobby, there’s absolutely zero downside to this. Sometimes, there just needs to be a sacrificial lamb. It’s called a deterrent. And when someone disrupts the natural flow of society badly enough, you need to hold a public execution to remind the masses that the very idea of law and order still exists. College sports will survive just fine without the presence of a historically irrelevant athletics program that’s third fiddle in its own state.
@AllKindsWeather If they want to give the Supreme Court an excuse to finally fire their asses into the Sun for good, they should totally go ahead with this.
California Is Blocking a Federal Audit of Its Voter Rolls
California allows first-time voters to register using forms of ID that most Americans would find surprising, including:
-Gym membership card
-Employer ID card
-Credit or debit card
-Prescription drug label
-Insurance card (California provides free health coverage to undocumented immigrants)
Full list: https://t.co/BvfviJsYG8
This is permitted when a voter fails to provide a Social Security number or driver’s license at registration. Our office believes this policy deserves a closer look.
We also have serious concerns about how California maintains its voter rolls. There are open questions about whether the state is promptly removing deceased voters, people who have moved, and individuals convicted of disqualifying felonies.
On top of that, California allows third parties to collect and turn in ballots on voters’ behalf (a practice known as ballot harvesting) with few restrictions. This makes it difficult to track who actually received, completed, and submitted each ballot.
For over a year, the Department of Justice has been trying to audit California’s voter rolls. Federal law gives the Attorney General the authority to review state voter files and confirm that only eligible U.S. citizens are voting in federal elections.
@AAGDhillon sent California a letter explaining our legal authority. California refused to comply, claiming state privacy laws block the review, an argument that does not hold up because those laws don’t apply to the federal government in this context. We’ve sued California in federal court, and the case is before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
If California genuinely wants voters to trust its elections, it should open its records, not fight to keep them closed.
What are they afraid of?
