expatriado , in Robert F. Kennedy Jr. tried to meet with Kamala Harris to discuss Cabinet job

he is probably stealing more votes from Trump than Harris, so he better stay in the race

tal ,

Harris and her advisers have not responded with an offer to meet or shown interest in the proposal, say people familiar with the conversations.

The Kennedy outreach, made through intermediaries, follows a meeting in Milwaukee last month between Kennedy and Republican nominee Donald Trump to discuss a similar policy role and endorsement that resulted in no agreement.

I imagine that Kennedy would like some return on kingmaking.

SeaJ ,

From polling, it appears that you are correct. Although how committed those voters are remains to be seen. I think I recall Johnson polling at around 6% in 2016 but ended up with a little over 3%.

pyre ,

well he’s going for the uneducated fuckwit vote, so yeah.

wasn’t necessarily true before, mind you. i think a lot of people were going to vote for him just because they didn’t want to choose between the same two dudes again.

also the more he talks the more he’ll drive away any voters lucky enough to have multiple neurons, and maybe steal a couple single neuron voters.

vanderbilt , in Google pulls the plug on uBlock Origin, leaving over 30 million Chrome users susceptible to intrusive ads

Hopefully the DoJ case against Google includes getting bent over a barrel for abusing their position as a market maker to force their revenue model.

TenderfootGungi , in What a "no taxes on tips" policy could mean for U.S. tipping culture

It would reinforce it. Instead, do what several countries have done, and make tipping mostly non-existent.

TheAlbatross , in "Double haters" who loathed Trump and Biden actually seem to like Kamala Harris, poll suggests

It feels kinda good to think that some Washington think tank might be calling me a double hater

eskimofry ,

They’re probably old, senile and out of touch millionaires who are insulated from any consequences.

The irony of calling “double hater” people who as a general rule don’t like people who spread hate or actively support those who practice hate, is also delicious and kind of says everything one needs to know about the Doublethink style of discourse of the people making up such labels.

Being truly anti-hate as a principle logically makes one be both against Trump and Biden, one for spreading hate and the other for actively supporting people practicing their hate aginst men, women and children with extreme violence.

rusticus , in MAGA election official immediately spews conspiracies after conviction

No remorse. Throw away the key your honor.

Zaktor , in Columbia University president resigns after Gaza protests turmoil

Good riddance and should have been sooner. Not only did she personally order violence against her students and staff, resulting in a no-confidence vote from her faculty, but her heavy-handed response to the early low-key protest is what kicked off the more forceful campus protests across the country. It’s amazing that such a failure lasted as long as she did. The other resignees were pushed out after mistakenly treating a political witch hunt by actual antisemites like a good faith discussion, this lady actually massively failed at her job and is personally responsible for the “period of turmoil” at both her campus and across the country.

She could have just let students camp on the lawn with their signs until they got tired of it.

expatriado , in Vance agrees that raising grandchildren is ‘whole purpose of postmenopausal female’

this shouldn’t be ok with more than %4 of the population, but here we are, with %40+ thinking it just fine

Silverseren , in Vance agrees that raising grandchildren is ‘whole purpose of postmenopausal female’

Goddamn, he's such a creepy weirdo.

hate2bme , in "Double haters" who loathed Trump and Biden actually seem to like Kamala Harris, poll suggests

Not me, but I do like Walz. Wish he was running for president.

p5yk0t1km1r4ge , in A teen was falling asleep during a courtroom field trip. She ended up in cuffs and jail clothes
@p5yk0t1km1r4ge@lemmy.world avatar

How the fuck is this allowed?

Warl0k3 ,

Separation of powers. Executive has the DOJ and friends, Congress has the Sgt at arms and Judiciary has contempt. All three are, in theory, immune to interference from the other branches, to allow said branches to defend themselves. Stupid, stupid idea.

Chocrates , in "Double haters" who loathed Trump and Biden actually seem to like Kamala Harris, poll suggests

The fuck do they have to give it such a negative name? I think a lot of people didn’t like either option, across a lot of different spectra of citizen.

T00l_shed , in Gov. Tim Walz agrees to VP debate hosted by CBS News on Oct. 1

Ok, someone needs to sell a brand of this as Couch Condoms and donate the proceeds to voter registration programs.

perishthethought , in Disney Seeking Dismissal of Raglan Road Death Lawsuit Because Victim Was Disney+ Subscriber - WDW News Today

I’d be really curious to hear if the court accepts Disney’s argument. (F*** them if they do)

timewarp ,
@timewarp@lemmy.world avatar

It’s Florida so it wouldn’t surprise me. However there are multiple ways it which it shouldn’t. Did Disney have unequal bargaining, was there consideration and acceptance, is it against the public interest and public policy, does the arbitration clause create undue burden… All these things should be against Disney. But… The Supreme Court even when it didn’t lean Republicunt has been pro-arbitration and anti consumer.

halcyoncmdr ,
@halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world avatar

None of that should even matter.

Disney is claiming the one line in the terms and conditions of a free trial of Disney+ years ago means the consumer must abide by those terms in perpetuity for anything Disney related. Even things completely unrelated to Disney+.

timewarp ,
@timewarp@lemmy.world avatar

Yes a lot of conservative higher courts and Supreme Court have determined that arbitration agreements don’t expire and last for eternity. Read various court cases on them. It is truly sick that the higher courts have ruled this way. It shouldn’t matter but in many cases it does matter.

halcyoncmdr ,
@halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world avatar

My point is the agreement was for an entirely unrelated product. A restaurant is in no way associated with the Disney+ streaming service. No one would expect the terms and conditions from a streaming service to apply to a sit down restaurant.

I’d even say that while they’re both under the Disney brand, they almost certainly are separate companies, further differentiating their products.

timewarp ,
@timewarp@lemmy.world avatar

I know and agree. What I’m saying is that the courts and especially conservative justices don’t care. Should Disney be sanctioned for this bad faith attempt? Absolutely! But will Disney be? Probably not. Is it possible Disney’s motion to compel or dismiss will be granted. It is definitely possible.

Pacattack57 , in Rachael Lillis, 'Pokémon' actor who voiced Misty and Jessie, dies at 46

So sad to see another person become a statistic in the fight against cancer. My heart goes out to her and her family.

I hate to make something like this political but Republicans in the senate just rejected a bipartisan bill that would have increased funding for finding a cure for cancer.

So…Kennedy voters?
