I don't remember if twitter was part of the good side, but imagine if twitter logged Donnie out of his account and forced him into a slow lane and say it was the FCC head's fault. Donnie's first tv execution, the FCC head. e dog tax, talking about beepboop machine tubes, have a beepboop dog.

Unrelated, but Drew Margery on deadspin fielded a question about whether or not Barron Trump was gonna break the record for number of times jacking it in the White House. I wonder what the current record is now.

He's absolutely the rear end in a top hat client who honestly expects his attorney to lie their face off and break every rule imaginable to make sure he wins.

What happens if Pence gets put in charge mid way through? If the GOP support him when would his second term end if he were to win the 2nd time round. Would he only get 6 years or would he get 10 years (e.g 1 1/2 terms or 2 1/2).

DreamShipWrecked posted:I can see a SCOTUS decision based around the first amendment for net neutrality but that is a long road to get there. SCOTUS isn't really an issue here. The FCC has authority to write Net Neutrality rules, it is just choosing to write them in a way that blocks net neutrality. Once these have been "the rules" for years and trillions of dollars in commerce and personal habits are based around this infrastructure, it is going to be VERY hard to redo them from the ground-up. Opposition would be massive, compared to today, because it would be expensive and troublesome to switch and status quo bias will hurt energy to make dramatic changes. It's like if someone built a highway with an inefficient route. Then 5 years later, there is a new administration and they say, "Well, if we demolish the highway and make it a straight line, then we will save a ton of time." There will be significant resistance to demolishing the highway because people have their daily commutes already planned out, businesses have their trucks scheduled for certain trips and times, etc.

This may get lost in a fast moving thread, but today, right now, is the 100th anniversary of the Bisbee Deportation, wherein deputized vigilantes organized by some mining company forcibly deported about 1,300 striking mine workers, their supporters, and bystanders from Bisbee, Arizona, U.S., to New Mexico. As bad as class warfare is today, man it was poo poo back then. This is a world where you don't show up for work one day and your boss deports you, a U.S. citizen. What happened to you afterwards? quote:From the day of the deportations until November 1917, the Citizens' Protective League ruled Bisbee. Based in a building owned by the copper companies, its representatives interrogated residents about their political beliefs with respect to unions and the war, determining who could work or obtain a draft deferment. Sheriff Wheeler established guards at all entrances to Bisbee and Douglas. Anyone seeking to exit or enter the town over the next several months had to have a "passport" issued by Wheeler. Any adult male in town who was not known to the sheriff's men was brought before a secret sheriff's kangaroo court. Hundreds of citizens were tried, and most of them were deported and threatened with lynching if they returned. Even long-time citizens of Bisbee were deported by this "court".[3][4][5][6] Only a handful of deportees ever returned to Bisbee. Not allowed back home and threatened with lynching, of course. The newspapers of the time and the federal government sided with the mining executives, not the workers and random bystanders. quote:Former President Theodore Roosevelt said that "no human being in his senses doubts that the men deported from Bisbee were bent on destruction and murder."[15] quote:Although many newspapers carried stories about the event, most of them editorialized that the workers "must have" been violent, and therefore "gotten what they deserved." Some major papers said that Sheriff Wheeler had gone too far, but declared that he should have imprisoned the miners rather than deported them.[3][4][5][6] The New York Times criticized the violence on the part of the mine owners and suggested that mass arrests "on vagrancy charges" would have been appropriate.[16] quote:"Arizona officials never initiated criminal proceedings in state court against those responsible for the deportation of workers and their lost wages and other losses" The union's demands that were being fought over were quite bold and unreasonable, as you can tell: quote:They asked for an end to physical examinations (used by the mine owners to counter theft), two workers on each drilling machine, two men working the ore elevators, an end to blasting while men were in the mine, an end to the bonus system (Note: Under the bonus system, miners were paid more money not only for mining more ore, but for mining high-quality ore. Since only a few veins were of the highest-quality ore, assignment to these veins was very important. Mine supervisors routinely discriminated and played favorites among the miners when assigning the high-grade veins), no more assignment of construction work to miners (Note: Construction work was unpaid), replacement of the sliding scale of wages with a $6.00 per day shift rate, and no discrimination against union members. The company refused all the demands.[3][4] But not to worry -- by 1920 once all that had blown over, the AG gave it the attention it deserved: quote:At the end of the conflict, Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer and others advocated for a peacetime equivalent of the Sedition Act, using the Bisbee events as a justification. They claimed that the only reason the company representatives and local law enforcement had taken the law into their own hands was that the government lacked the power to suppress radical sentiment directly. If the government were armed with appropriate legislation and the threat of long prison terms, private citizens would not feel the need to act. In modern times we all have to watch Trump continue to be a free man, but being legally untouchable as part of the upper class really only has one direction to go throughout history, and that's towards improvement from a state of being completely awful.

Except they're only zapped for a fraction of a second. Hannity would have someone dunk his head in a bucket once and then he'd crow on about it not being bad. Hannity deserves a proper waterboarding. With video of it posted online so that when he's screaming and begging for mercy everyone of his dumb followers can maybe realize how loving bad it is.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:SCOTUS isn't really an issue here. While I see what you are saying, it would appear that any upheaval would be on the ISP's side, not the consumer. There wouldn't be infrastructure moving, just resetting everything back to how it is now by removing the throttling on their side. Or maybe it's more complex than I understand, I am not a computer scientist.

Mancow or one of those "it's not torture" loudmouth radio dudes agreed to do it and lasted like 10 seconds. Regardless, I don't really care. I just want to see Sean Hannity loving waterboarded is all I'm saying. Because I hate Sean Hannity a lot.

NPR just had an interview with a Republican and Democrat strategist. The Republican's name was Paris if you want to look it up. It was a thing of beauty. Among the Trump Jr defenses: It didn't turn out to be anything, therefore it wasn't illegal. Donald Jr was very transparent. Jr isn't a government employee. The Democrat lady just absolutely loses it. It's probably on the NPR One app. Definitely worth a listen. You could tell the Republican was just keeping his job and had no faith in any of his answers.
