Yeah. They don’t have authority to end the contract. Local officials can do things to interfere with utility hookups.

But sending in the local police to attack protesters and the press is just an asshole move

He’s informally helping to coordinate stuff like this even if not part of his official duties

He’s about as likely to follow through as Musk was when he actually challenged Zuckerberg to a fight

Funding and performing a large chunk of the world’s scientific research is not abusive, and with no other country stepping up at the needed scale, it’s going to leave everyone worse off.

It’ll take a year to get through the courts and in the meantime a huge chunk of junior researchers will find another career. This is going to permanently damage the US even if reversed

Sounds like it was at the request of Minnesota prosecutors and for assault

The donations are all listed in cal-access and the endorsements are all public.

Yes, but ICE changed tactics so it’s all less visible.

Same thing locally where I am. Signal chats are active, but we mostly respond to local cops doing something dumb and being mistaken for ICE

Several places have very active protests in support of the concentration camp hunger strikes too

They were showing up in large numbers before people were murdered for it. The murders just got your attention.

Funny how they’re quietly funding the other prominent Democrat

Automated enforcement gets actual violations if done right. But it tickets the white and rich a lot more, so there is huge pushback

I don’t know how she did it, but the solution I’ve seen was to attach a spinner knob to the wheel. Cheap and easy to do. And gives mobility to somebody who otherwise wouldn’t have it

Typo if you’re not understanding:

Escalating violently is what cops are trained to do. If you put a bunch of bored cops around students, who occasionally do dumb stuff, the cops will escalate violently some of the time.

The difference is that they’re stationed inside the school all day, every school day. They’re not there to respond to whatever emergency there is in the community, only to minor incidents inside the school, with the training to escalate violently.

Pretty sure they’re not restricting this by platform.

He’s a eugenicist who thinks his “good genes” will protect him instead of God.

Yeah, the billionaires pay people to write stuff like that. There’s a reason the Forbes tagline was long “The Capitalist Tool.”

I don’t expect any such individual to actually get a payout. Just folks who beat up cops.

It means the social circle around American politicians, which tended to really dislike the idea of paying workers more

My understanding is that it won’t be there next April
