They targeted multiple locations with fighter jets and Tomahawks fired from Navy ships."

At least here, the coalition is the big countries instead of George W.

That Works posted:In a 6-3 decision A lot of these are inaccurate because Roberts would defect in a weak attempt to shore up the legitimacy of the court. In this particular instance, Roberts said some really unfriendly things in his Hodges dissent. If the court were to revisit, it may well go six to three.

While much of the crisis is a consequence of American support for the Saudis and Israel, the only reason that there isn't a broader group publicly signed on to the action is because India and China just don't want to be seen as on the same page as the US here—but they're equally as anxious about the shipping lane's security as everyone else. In a bizarre counterfactual where this coalition were to inexplicably shrug and ignore the attacks, someone would almost certainly be mobilizing kinetic action to attempt to reimpose security.

I look forward to my marriage being annulled. Also in NH news https://www.glad.org/new-hampshire-house-passes-two-bills-attacking-lgbtq-rights-lgbtq-public-education-and-child-welfare-advocates-respond/ The New Hampshire House of Representatives today voted on four bills relating to LGBTQ+ rights, and for every bill, voted against protecting LGBTQ+ rights. Two of the bills (HB 368 and HB 264), positive measures that would have streamlined affirmative birth certification and protected LGBTQ+ youth seeking certain health care in New Hampshire, failed. The other two bills (HB 396 and HB 619), dangerous attacks on LGBTQ+ rights, passed and are being sent to the New Hampshire Senate. These two bills would undermine the right to equal protection under the law for LGBTQ+ people by giving a license to discriminate against and segregate LGBTQ+ people in schools and other settings, as well as make it more difficult for trans teenagers and their families to access appropriate health services supported by every major medical association. And in WV https://newrepublic.com/post/178029/west-virginia-bill-ban-transgender-people-schools-obscene-matter Senate Bill 197, which was introduced Wednesday, prohibits obscene matter from being within 2,500 feet of a public school building or facility. Obscene materials are defined as something that is sexually explicit “in a patently offensive way” or something that “lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value.”

There will probably be a mass relocation out of Florida at some point. Because people gonna people though, it will be a chaotic humanitarian clusterfuck of individuals trying not to die in the aftermath of a monster hurricane while the state goes bankrupt from it's half-baked insurance scheme now that all the major players are pulling out.

That Works posted:Roe is precedent and settled law. FWIW, The legal underpinning of Roe is an inference that the right is a Constitutional one - essentially a decision that the right should be in the Constitution. The legal underpinning of marriage equality (race and sex) is the literal words of the Constitution. That being said, when you're playing Calvinball, anything goes.

Yeah it's probably not exactly stabilizing that it was a 5-4, and two of those five are gone and replaced by Kavanaugh (who probably doesn't care) and Barrett (religious zealot).

I'm not familiar with this repayment plan - but any of y'all qualify? https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing...rolled-in-save/ quote:Starting next month, borrowers enrolled in SAVE who took out less than $12,000 in loans and have been in repayment for 10 years will get their remaining student debt cancelled immediately. This action will particularly help community college borrowers, low-income borrowers, and those struggling to repay their loans. Apparently SAVE replaced the Revised Pay As You Earn (REPAYE) repayment plan and I remember seeing that option a long while back.

Also, Donnie sued the New York Times and others at the paper, and just got charged $392,638.69 for sucking at it. Usually, judges will take a bite out of the defendants' attorney fees claims, but the judge didn't even bother. https://twitter.com/susannecraig/status/1745875236149440586

Search your feelings, you know the answer already. No. Border Patrol has to detain any "illegals" they catch on our side of the border, and then process them to see if they either get deported, are wanted by another agency, or eligible to be released with a immigration court date. Chuds and TX gov are stupid as gently caress though so they see/frame this as "Biden just letting everyone in", when the reality is there is a process and you can't just boot everyone back across the border the moment you find them.

Because people gonna people though, it will be a chaotic humanitarian clusterfuck of individuals trying not to die in the aftermath of a monster hurricane while the state goes bankrupt from it's half-baked insurance scheme now that all the major players are pulling out. Based on the response to Katrina, I am inclined to use the words "mass migration" rather than "mass relocation". Relocations require planning and are very expensive, while letting people just die is cheap. At some point the actuarial cost of saving anyone will rise too high and they'll just get written off. You'll see lots of refugees but they won't have anywhere to relocate to unless they have enough money or perhaps family willing to take them in. One of my long-range fears is that as the climate crisis accelerates, you'll see these internal refugee issues harden the borders between states, leading to interstate conflict, jurisdictional disputes, further insurrection, and so on down the line until we have Civil War 2 or end up completely Balkanized or both.

Comedy option, Biden should call up the Texas national guard. Turns out they all need to be deployed to Alaska for a few months on an emergency basis.

Absolutely serious post here, and I ask this because I feel like I can’t trust the stories put out by either side. Is the border crisis under this administration really a thing? I could have sworn I saw someone ITT recently saying that it absolutely was, but I can’t recall who, or if I’m even remembering the right thread. What is the real story here?

Wouldn't getting called up for federal service actually be better for them? I thought I remembered hearing that the Guard gets hosed over in a bunch of ways when on state duty, especially in Texas where Abbot's been calling them up for extra long extended border duty.
