After he was elected, Fetterman created the website Braddocc.com as part of a revitalization project to appeal to young people in the dilapidated steel town. The now-defunct website, which Fetterman launched with his own money, explains that "Braddocc" was "unofficially renamed" by the "young and disenfranchised for its Crip allegiance." The Justice Department considers the Crips, founded in southern California in the 1970s, to be one of the country’s most violent street gangs. i'm kind of disappointed he's not actually a member or affiliate of the crips

i'm listening to today's house hearing on ftx, and i'm surprised by the number of republican reps who are insinuating that the department of justice and sec deliberately timed the indictment and arrest of sbf to prevent him from testifying before the house. i can't tell if they're just grumpy because they feel someone is stepping on their prerogative, or if they actually believe that if sbf had been allowed to testify he would have revealed something that justice wanted to cover up i know everyone i talked to about was complaining that he wasn't in jail already, so suggesting that the arrest should have waited seems kind of wild

Fister Roboto posted:It would be nice if seeing the richest man in the world have a fullblown public meltdown would make more people realize that, hey, maybe we shouldn't allow anyone to have that much money and power. I'm not gonna hold my breath on that though. the actual lesson in all of this is that we shouldn't allow anyone to post
