Under the guidance, published Monday (7 August), teachers at schools in Orange County must use pronouns and titles that correspond to their “biological sex” at birth, and parents must fill out a form to let teachers know of any deviation from their child’s legal name, even if this is a simple nickname.
So if the governor of Florida was subjected to this “guidance”, he would need permission to go by Ron.
We call my son and daughter by shortened versions of their first names. Both are in High School in OCPS. Today they brought home the forms for us to sign to allow them to go by those shortened names in school. I was shocked.
Perhaps Ronald DeSantis should be forced to get permission from his family inorder to continue to be called Ron.
The sad thing is, my brother has a name like “Benjamin”. My mother is a very mentally ill individual and is extremely militant about her children’s names “I chose your names and you will go by exactly what I named you!” and refused to let him go by “Ben” or let us call him “Ben”. Except, outside of the house he always went by Ben, she just didn’t know it. I always called him Ben when we weren’t home, because it’s what he wanted to be called. So kids like this would have to bring a form home and get their ass kicked by mom for going by a name they aren’t supposed to? Fuck that.
The people of Ohio are generally very centrist to left leaning. We however have been so (illegally) gerrymandered that it certainly doesn’t appear that way. Rural Ohio is Conservative just like everywhere else in this country.
When decisions are made democratically, as this was, we usually make the correct decision. That’s why the right tried to take this away from us.
All States, except for Maine and Nebraska, have a winner-take-all policy where the State looks only at the overall winner of the state-wide popular vote. Maine and Nebraska, however, appoint individual electors based on the winner of the popular vote within each Congressional district and then 2 “at-large” electors based on the winner of the overall state-wide popular vote.
While it is rare for Maine or Nebraska to have a split vote, each has done so twice: Nebraska in 2008, Maine in 2016, and both Maine and Nebraska in 2020.
But even if the plan did not ultimately pass legal muster at the highest level, Mr. Chesebro argued that it would achieve two goals. It would focus attention on claims of voter fraud and “buy the Trump campaign more time to win litigation that would deprive Biden of electoral votes and/or add to Trump’s column.”
The memo had been a missing piece in the public record of how Mr. Trump’s allies developed their strategy to overturn Mr. Biden’s victory. In mid-December, the false Trump electors could go through the motions of voting as if they had the authority to do so. Then, on Jan. 6, 2021, Vice President Mike Pence could unilaterally count those slates of votes, rather than the official and certified ones for Joseph R. Biden Jr.
The vehicle went into a culvert behind the house before landing on the roof, according to Junction Fire Company. The investigation found speed to be a factor in the crash, according to Decatur Fire Company.
Has any crash ever occurred in which speed was not a factor?
The vehicle was found to have no velocity and so speed was not a factor in his incident. The driver simply phased in from another parallel universe and intersected with a tree.
well ‘crash’ is kind of a generic term used for any incident involving a vehicle and they can be caused by other objects besides the vehicle in question, and parked cars may be involved in incidents
so an animal/person/tree/meteor could theoretically fall onto a parked vehicle, and in that sense ‘speed’ would not be a vehicle factor code
source: I work with state crash forms as part of my job and see all kinds of factor codes, not all ‘crashes’ necessarily involve a moving vehicle
some examples: Parked, Stopped in Traffic Lane, Explosion/Fire
Correct me if I’m wrong, but saying ‘speed was a factor’ is kindof a generic catch all for “they were going too fast”
like, you could be going ten under, checking the address number on your phone and still hit a stopped car. In that case, it was the distracted driving and not necessarily the speed.
Yeah mentions of speed typically mean ‘over a safe speed (depending on conditions), or over the legal speed limit’
The full report would likely list one or more secondary factors as well, such as collision with a fixed object or whatever actually helped launch this car into the air
Sounds like this person wanted to ram the house so they floored it, but flying into the 2nd story was not planned
Awesome. I hope they get him and his cronies on RICO charges and everyone involved in this brazen attempt to overturn an election to install a fascist dictator winds up in prison.
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching him melt down over all these indictments. It’s just like, what did you expect dude? If you don’t want to be indicted every other week you should stop committing crimes. It’s super easy. Look at me, I’m not committing crimes as we speak! It’s effortless!
The mayor made sure to turn the 65 pounds of cocaine over to the district attorney. The DA got the 58 pounds of cocaine to the Tampa police. The Tampa police made sure the 41 pounds of cocaine made it to the DEA, and the DEA publicized the discovery and seizure of the 33 pounds of cocaine.
Prosecutors have said Wei, who was born in China, was first approached by a Chinese intelligence officer in February 2022 while he was applying to become a naturalized U.S. citizen, and admitted to the officer that he knew the arrangement could affect his application. Even so, prosecutors say he provided the officer detailed information on the weapons systems and aircraft aboard the Essex and other amphibious assault ships that act as small aircraft carriers.
The court on Tuesday voted 5-4 to put on hold a ruling from a federal judge in Texas that invalidated the Biden administration’s regulation of ghost gun kits. The regulation will be in effect while the administration appeals the ruling to the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans — and potentially the Supreme Court.
Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett joined with the court’s three liberal members to form the majority. Justices Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas would have kept the regulation on hold during the appeals process. Neither side provided an explanation.
