That was posted June 30 and the article says the study in question was posted July 2, so I think it is a different one.

Money laundering, tax evasion, and racketeering are the classics for organized crime.

Oh, you have the study? Can you post a link?

An elderly relative of mine started getting tickets in the mail for running red lights. She apparently just forgot that you couldn’t turn left on a red light. It’s a miracle she never hit anyone.

Unfortunately a good 40% of the country are so brainwashed by propaganda that they think that what Trump is doing is good. Someone is going to start the second civil war, but nobody is eager to fire the first shots.

Deadpool.

I think one of these would work for you.

They are hilariously wrong a lot of the time.

And Tasmanians, and Native Americans, and Indians, and Kenyans, and Irish…

Not if Trump gets his way

“The Civil Division shall prioritize and maximally pursue denaturalization proceedings in all cases permitted by law”

There are no cases permitted by law!!! The 14th amendment outlines that anyone born or naturalized in the US is a citizen. There are no constitutional mechanisms to reverse this. I know we are past the point where shouting “it’s against the law!” matters, but damn…

The cost of repairing their car from an accident won’t stop them, a ticket won’t either. All it does is punish local drivers making moves that no actual officer would actually ticket for (like turning right on a red with no pedestrians present).

Red light cameras are nothing more than a tax on local drivers and, as usual, that burden falls most on minorities.

IIRC, the Democrats used the filibuster more during Trump’s first term than the Republicans did during Obama’s second term. It is a highly flawed tool, but it does have its uses. Yeah, we are going to be able to pass more things we want, but so will the opposition.

I think we should get rid of the filibuster because it has allowed the Executive to take more power. That doesn’t mean it will be entirely positive. It might even be a net negative. Remember that we got rid of the filibuster for supreme court appointments and that is what allowed the Republicans to take a supermajority there.

Little sea raviolis.

The last time the Dems had a filibuster proof trifecta, it was for about 2 months and they passed Obamacare. The Repubs spent the next decade trying to break it. The Democrats have a lot of issues, but they are NOT the major problem here.

You mean the continuing resolution that would have caused a government shut down which Trump would have used to take more power and a meaningless symbolic vote?

Yes, but that would have affected virtually nothing Trump has done since gaining office again.

That’s Lincoln Square. The lot was behind a block long strip of popular restaurants and businesses and served as the collective parking for all of them. Removing it pretty much guarantees the street parking along that block will never be removed, when otherwise that block would be a prime candidate to be made a pedestrian-only block.
