Buelldozer , in WA health department sues over denied entry to Tacoma ICE facility
@Buelldozer@lemmy.today avatar

This article from January has more detail in it.

The idea that The Department of Labor and Standards can show up with a Court Order and be denied entry is mind boggling.

Aceticon ,

How is refusing to obey a court order signed by a judge not the crime of Contempt of Court?!

@Buelldozer@lemmy.today avatar

I’m sure that it is but I don’t know how a County Court goes about enforcing that against a Federal facility. That’s why it so rare to see this happen, the system only works if everyone plays along. I dunno.

SeaJ , in Texas judge steps aside in Elon Musk's X case against advertisers

He stepped aside because he is invested in both parties. I guarantee you if he was only invested in one side, he would claim that he would be impartial.

MyOpinion , in US Considers a Rare Antitrust Move: Breaking Up Google

Yes please. Google has become a monster.

DragonTypeWyvern , in 4 former officers accused of staging sham raid to extort nearly $37 million from California man

Imagine thinking you can get away with financial crimes against a rich guy. What are they, hourly?

SeaJ ,

They probably thought that the rich guy who hired them (the estranged business partner) would protect them.

They worked for the rich lady, so they probably had a chance.

Zugyuk , in Donald Trump says he will flee to Venezuela if he loses election [Newsweek]

Openly staying that he is going to flee the country… With ongoing court cases. Time to revoke that passport

“No, no, Agent! I am Donald…o Trump…ski. Famous Russian real estate guy and international lover of beautiful ladies. You don’t need my passport because all your friends know me. WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU’VE NEVER HEARD OF DONALD TRUMP I’M THE PRESIDENT!”

Not trump, that sentence was too coherent

I know, but I can’t downshift hard enough to get into that headspace. I tried.

hanabatake , in US Considers a Rare Antitrust Move: Breaking Up Google

Breakup Divesting the Android operating system, used on about 2.5 billion devices worldwide, is one of the remedies that’s been most frequently discussed by Justice Department attorneys, according to the people. In his decision, Mehta found that Google requires device makers to sign agreements to gain access to its apps like Gmail and the Google Play Store.

It would be wonderful

PugJesus , in Immigrants Are Becoming U.S. Citizens at Fastest Clip in Years: The government has reduced a backlog of applications that built up during the Trump administration. New citizens look forward to voting

Immigrants are the finest Americans, because they have went above and beyond what those of us who are native-born can do - they have chosen to become Americans. I hope someday we can make a society worth their respect and not their disappointment.

SendMePhotos ,

Oh Jesus Christ that is one hell of a perspective! I have never thought about it like that before.

edit: oops wrong comment thread

Milk_Sheikh ,

It’s not cheap either, you gotta WANT it. Between application cost, prerequisite fees, and lawyers for paperwork, it’s common to be out of pocket a few grand.

papertowels ,

Yup, we regularly joke that my non-english speaking immigrant dad is the greatest American who ever lived.

His WeChat account gets regularly suspended/blocked because every day he sends chinese language news published in the US, decrying the censorship that happens there.

SarcasticMan , in Elon Musk draws fire for playing down impact of America’s atomic bombing of Japan: ‘Not as scary as people think’
@SarcasticMan@lemmy.world avatar

Elon is like that greasy kid in high school who would correct the History teacher with facts he learned by posting on /pol/. “Actually, the slaves loved being slaves because they got free housing and healthcare.”

Can someone please line his shit ass up against the wall already?

MissJinx , in Why Iran Has Waited to Retaliate Against Israel for Hamas Leader’s Killing
@MissJinx@lemmy.world avatar

Organized Religion is the root of all evil. As a woman I want a world without religion. please and thank you

teamevil ,

People would find a new evil to worship if given the opportunity.

MissJinx ,
@MissJinx@lemmy.world avatar

tbf they can worship anything they want. My problem is not so much with having faith but with the mass control, kid rape, women killing part of things, that comes from organized religion. When someone gives a dude the power to talk like god it’s never good. Why do people need to have other people teling them how to think all the time?!!! Idiocracy

WhyFlip ,

Organized religion for the most part is a good thing as it tends to control the masses, setting boundaries as to what is right and wrong. Now we have digital pacifiers, the latest means of mass control.

Humans are perfectly capable of dividing themselves into factions and fostering hatred of the other without religion, don’t you worry.

anubis119 , in A Wisconsin Tribe Built a Lending Empire Charging 600% Annual Rates to Borrowers

Reminds me of this old commercial I used to see. I think they got shut down for predatory lending IIRC. youtu.be/xgLMgVq4p_E?feature=shared

billiam0202 ,

I remember those! Also the fine print:

The APR for a typical loan of $10,000 is 89.66% with 84 monthly payments of $743.99.

For the curious, that means you pay

$743.99 x 84 = $62,495.16

How the fuck that commercial aired more than once without any sort of federal intervention boggles the mind.

It’s the one where they are in the future, and have aliens, and a bunch of greedy people. It has a hero in it, that makes a stand for what is right, killing a bunch of aliens.

Battlefield Earth, right?

MyOpinion , in J.K. Rowling, Elon Musk Named in Imane Khelif's Cyberbullying Lawsuit

Both of these people should be held accountable for the terror they brought to this person.

schnurrito , in Racism Is Why Trump Is So Popular

From skimming this, there seems to be nothing in there not debunked in 2016 by slatestarcodex.com/…/you-are-still-crying-wolf/

rezifon ,

Another way to look at this is that you’ve linked to an article that necessarily lacks the entire last eight years of context necessary to discuss an article written in 2024. Please, join the rest of us in our current reality if you want to discuss what’s happening now.
