If these fuckers cause another economic meltdown because of their greed, there will be war on Wall St.

dogslayeggs , in Georgia elections board weighs proposal for extensive document review before certification

It allows any member of the board to review any “election related” documents. Yeah, that won’t be abused to slow down the certification process if their guy doesn’t win. The loan democrat points out the job of this board is just to certify the votes were counted, not to investigate if anything was done illegally (the Sec of State does that), but of course minor things like that don’t matter.

I love Portland! That gaming bar Ground Kontrol is so awesome!

It’s a great place! Got a little dicey during the pandemic though. :(

vodkasolution , in Actor George Clooney, a high-profile Biden supporter and fundraiser, asks president to leave race

First time in years I think it was not that bad to settle there when I had the chance

The big brown doe eyes are one feature I find super attractive, but there is something else about the post thumbnail I can’t quite articulate. The bangs and framing are one subtle element as are the vibrant saturated colors. What else do you see in the image that makes her so striking in style and symmetry either on practical terms or in terms of human social psychology/neotenic features… or perhaps it is the golden ratio in this particular still.

I believe that’s her in the Robert Altman film 3 Women.

I’m not a big fan of Altman, but he really knows how to bring out physicality in an actor.

Today ,

It’s funny how same but different she looks in the Shining.

Alexstarfire ,

It’s her teeth/mouth.

Branch_Ranch , in Treasury, IRS announce 'major milestone' of $1 billion in past-due taxes collected from millionaires

Fuckin" git it!

Catoblepas , in 'We're screaming into the void.' Across the U.S., heat keeps breaking records

In my county there were 2 cities that set new all time record high temps of 115 F/46+ C last week. I’d be shocked if it was the last record this year for us.

ImADifferentBird , in Senate Republicans block Democratic bill codifying Roe v. Wade abortion protections
@ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

The vote was 49-44, falling short of the super-majority needed to defeat a filibuster

Another reason they should have ditched the filibuster when they had a chance.

Pacattack57 ,

My question is why were 7 votes missing?

Maggoty ,

At 49 it fell short of the normal threshold too.

homura1650 , (edited )

Not quite. You need a quorum of senators present, and more affirmative votes than negative.

Having said that, if this actually was a viable vote with 49 senators supporting, you would probably see more vote. Although, I suspect there are at least a few senate Republicans who would at least abstain to let it pass.

Reverendender , in Hungary’s Viktor Orbán to meet with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago

I imagine it would be surprisingly easy to bug this meeting and share what was discussed, publicly, given the atrocious security of Maralago.

Addv4 , in Inside Goldman Sachs' expanding but risky financing engine

Are they at least asking for the financial details of the businesses? I remember noting that a lot of the issue with private equity was how opaque their finances were.

That absolute waste of DNA James Inhofe didn’t live to see the damage he’s caused the world.

BlameThePeacock , in Hungary’s Viktor Orbán to meet with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago

He’s not a representative of the government, what personal business would Trump have with Orban?

If he’s doing it for diplomatic purposes it’s illegal.

When has ‘illegal’ ever stopped him before?

CaptainSpaceman , (edited )

Hes passing on a message that is totally not from Putin

EDIT: Welp…

AbidanYre ,

Was Rand Paul busy or something?

fartington ,

The first thing I thought of. I wonder if he will consider it a love letter like the one from ‘rocketman’.

svc ,

Maybe putin has made his VP pick

eldavi , in 'We're screaming into the void.' Across the U.S., heat keeps breaking records

some of us are screaming into the void; the rest are supporting a president who gives token gestures to the environment on one hand while simultaneously blocking affordable green energy products and ramping up oil production in the name of maintaining the status quo on the other.

SeaJ , in Black man dies, crying for help, after hotel guards pin him down, video shows: Milwaukee police are investigating the killing of Dvontaye Mitchell, whose death has drawn comparisons to George Floyd’s

Like the case in Kent, WA a few weeks ago where a Ln off work security guard murdered a teen who was returning an airsoft pistol to a sporting goods store because he thought he was going to rob the place. He is being charged with murder. It should be no surprise that the victim had brown skin which likely played into why the guy thought he was going to rob the place. I’m sure the guy wanted to be the good guy and save the day but he had access to a gun and became a murderer instead.

orcrist ,

We should never assume the best in cases of homicide. The cops have taught us that quite clearly. Maybe he wanted to be a hero, or maybe he wanted an excuse to shoot someone and took the first chance he got.

Who tf is George Clooney?
