But like all tech before this, we need a watchdog to make sure it doesn't hurt us more than it helps us.
I don't trust this administration to oversee anything. Trump has proven over and over again that he cannot be trusted..He will do what's best for himself and his family and his wealthy buddies. The rest of us are not worth his time.
It's already being used to change perception of reality.
Geesh
What part don't you understand
What part makes you think Ballpeen does or doesn't understand?
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news because the site has ran well for the last couple of weeks or so but I got another error message today and also about 3 days ago after trying to log in:
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in D:\WebRoots\dawgtalkers.net v2\libs\mysqli.inc.php on line 208
$20 a year for two years from what I understand is doable.
I assume you're correct, but my worry here is that giving out this contract will further constraining additional roster-building on the offensive side. At this point in this team's rebuild, I'd much rather put the money towards building the supporting cast than a relative long-shot at QB.
What is it about showing a valid ID at the polls that scares you people so much? I don't get it.....well, maybe I do, but seriously.
Have you bothered reading the thread? That isn't the point. It's that just saying "Everyone needs a photo ID to vote" is a fraction of it. It seems to be a one size fits all solution without anything included to help those which it presents an obstacle to get those ID's.
I wasn't aware of how it worked in Ohio but after reading from some posters living there and looking it up, there are programs in Ohio which makes those ID's free and you can even get transportation to acquire one. If you're going to require all voters to have a photo ID they should have easy access and free ID's. Ohio is doing that. If you demand voters have photo ID's in every state it should be required to do it the way Ohio does it in every state. But that isn't in the bill now is it?
When I lived in Ohio it's the same as it is here in Tennessee. I had to go to my license registration office to get my drivers license. That's almost 20 minutes away by car. It was the same way when I lived in Ohio. A drivers license in Tennessee is $28. That's not an obstacle for me. That's easy for me and you too.
But not for many people. Not for the poor, often times the elderly or disabled. They have the same right to vote as all the rest of us do. If you are going to require voters to have a photo ID in all states, all states should have programs like Ohio making those ID's free and transportation to get those ID's. But you don't see that in the SAFE act do you? Of course you don't.
No American citizen should have to pay to vote. No American citizen should have obstacles placed in their way to vote.
What about making these photo ID's you want to require legal voters to get free and easy scares Republicans so much? I don't get it.....well, maybe I do, but seriously.
I would like to remind you of something. When you leave your home to go on a trip, you have a clear direction in which you must head to reach your destination. With each passing mile you get closer to that destination. We are traveling down that road with a clear direction. We are rapidly passing those mile markers.
Showing how we're traveling down that road in the exact same direction, headed towards that same destination isn't to deflect or minimize anything. It's just a heads up for those who refuse to read the warning signs.
You don't start out where you end up. There are many miles between those two points. Wherever you go, there you are. We're getting closer and closer to being there.
You are right. We have a friggen communist in the NYC mayor's mansion.
By the way, that isn't going well.
Think on a bigger scale. Promoting fascism as your alternative is probably worse. And that isn't going so well for people in power who have spoken out against it.
No, a numbers guy is a numbers guy. There are a lot of them out there. So you're saying he was kept to fix the clusterfudge cap mess he himself created?
It should be a law a federal employee cannot shoot into a closed door.
Debatable....
What's not debatable is that someone cannot lie when giving sworn testimony. ICE agents are being deployed like they're a goon squad, and we're seeing behavior in line with that.
I get how people could form the opinion that was political grandstanding. But when the other side actually convenes a grand jury in an attempt to prosecute and imprison them for that? Trying to minimize the huge contrast between those two things by shrugging it off by saying such a threat to their freedom was nothing more than "The whole thing was political grandstanding by both sides" is a sad commentary to the direction our country has headed in.
These two things are NOT the same.
I get it. But it is a classical double standard… We can do stupid things to stoke our base, but when you do things to stoke your base we will cry foul and then try to indict you…. Because we can. Nanny Nanny boo boo. Or… Kiss my Grits.
I find the entire thing hilarious. The very people who claim the other side are the people who get #triggered and are #snowflakes had a total meltdown over a halftime show. And the headliner of their "alternative half time show" was so triggered over a trans person doing a Bud Light ad on the internet he broke out his automatic rifle and shot up a case of Bud Light. Yes, they selected him as their poster boy......
Just a little bit about the man behind all of this.................
Olsen rose to prominence by working closely with Trump to undermine the results of the 2020 election under the slogan “Stop the Steal.” He urged several DOJ officials that year to file a complaint to the Supreme Court scrutinizing Trump’s loss, and even called the president multiple times during the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. A federal judge later sanctioned Olsen for making “false, misleading and unsupported factual assertions” in support of Republican Kari Lake’s unsuccessful legal challenge to overturn her loss in the 2022 Arizona gubernatorial race.
A disgraced, sanctioned attorney is getting access to all of these people's personal information. Many of the claims being used have already been debunked in court cases. But he has been instrumental in helping spread election lies from the very start. Now they have stooped to the level of using those lies in a coordinated effort by the trump administration to obtain warrants and manufacture even more lies and mistrust in our election process. They are trying to insure that Americans believe an election can only be fair when they win and Democrats lose. This has gotten to the point that is more than disgusting.
