It would take more than a couple. Trump is terrible on his own, but he isn’t the sole problem, he’s largely just a symptom of the bigger problem.

I wonder what universalmonk is doing now. Probably spending their big fat new commission/check.

He of all people has earned a retirement, but I’m still thankful that he’ll be around to add a voice of sanity.

Nah, it would have just kicked the can down the road, leading to accusations that promises mean nothing. UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml is already doing so a post or two below you.

But yeah, she should have said that from the start.

RIP

Probably worth going in person, explaining the situation, and asking for a provisional ballot.

I don’t want them to code my information in a way that benefits their insurance system but isn’t accurate to my actual diagnosis.

My fiancee has been dealing with this for like 2 years. She got a relatively simple bloodwork panel done, and the NP who ordered it fucked up the code/paperwork for it by labeling it as something more expensive than it actually was, which resulted in the insurance not covering it, which resulted in a $1k bill for what should have been a $20 test.

The bill was sent to collections, and they were told that the bill was erroneous because the NP fucked up the paperwork. They’re still calling 2 years later. They don’t seem to get the hint that my fiancee is disabled, has no wages, and no way to pay it*, and therefore they ain’t getting shit.

* Fortunately it is within my means to pay for it for her, but she has no wages for them to garnish, they can’t mess with her credit score over it, and so they have no pathway to do any harm for failure to pay. So fuck em.

It wouldn’t be this close if Harris just came out against the genocide in Gaza

It’d be worse. Do you have any idea how much damage AIPAC would do? The majority of americans are siding with Israel. She’d get called a terrorist simp before she even finished her speech. It would be an unmitigated shit show.

I wish the american public was wiser, and recognizing how evil Israel is. But that’s not the world we live in.

If the DNC was fully filled with a bunch of AOC types, we’d be leagues ahead on so many things this country is fucking up.

Granted, that is in part dependent on a country that would accept an AOC style DNC.

Nevermind I finally clicked the link after opening my big mouth

Props to you for taking responsibility for that.

By the time my state got it’s turn, Philips had already dropped out and endorsed Biden. Still voted for him in the primary because he was basically the only other option.

It very much happened. I remember voting for Philips for the 2024 DNC presidential primary.

There wasn’t one for the president this time, but there were still plenty of primaries that were very influential.

There technically was, it just not one where other candidates can really compete. The incumbent is pretty much guaranteed to win their primary.

The bounty itself reads that any person besides local and state government officials may sue a trans person using the restroom that aligns with their gender, with payments including “injunctive relief sufficient to prevent the defendant from violating the provisions of this ordinance; nominal and compensatory damages if the plaintiff has suffered injury or harm from the defendant’s conduct; statutory damages in an amount of not less than $10,000 for each violation of this ordinance; and court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees.”

As with the abortion bans, the “”“criminal”“” themselves has to pay.

Not false.

Yes and no.

As with most things related to the U.S. government, it is complicated, bullshit, and hypocritical.

That’s fair

Because the U.S. is a failed democracy. It labels places like Puerto Rico as a territory.

Good thing I wasn’t talking about what he was convicted of, and instead was talking about what he did. Defense lawyers always try to negotiate and reduce charges to lower ones.

Now answer my question. What would you have us do with him?

I think they’re just saying that everyone should have the option and use it.
