Or our favorite sports league, the NFL.That bit was a joke about how all sorts of wealth redistribution is seen as communism in the US (except if it's to bailout big business).

Not that surprising tbh but still somewhat interesting.
Bullshit charges that she hacked into a state of Florida portal & tried to incite some kind of uprising. Complete horseshit.The feck is going on here?

Florida police raid home of former state Covid-19 data scientist
Florida police raided the home of a former state coronavirus data scientist on Monday, escalating a feud between the state government and a data expert who has accused officials of trying to cover up the extent of the pandemic.
Count yourself lucky. If that fella isn't performance art, I don't know anymore.I had never heard of this black conservative Jesse Lee Peterson
Probably 60/40.Jessie is like Hannibal Buress in his speech delivery but not funny.
Is he playing the black man conservative role as a con or does he truly believe the bullshit he spouts?

By July, Black Lives Matter protesters in Portland had become accustomed to the gray, black, and colorless tear gas that wafted through the city streets every night. But that month, they started seeing plumes of an unusual green smoke, too. Puddles of greenish residue seeped into the city’s storm drains. Human rights advocates and conservationists called on the local government to investigate the environmental impact of these chemical weapons, which had been deployed by the police, but no new chemicals were identified to the public.
...
HC is a highly regulated toxin, labeled as a “likely carcinogen” and skin irritant by the Environmental Protection Agency. Eye masks and gloves are recommended for people who handle the chemical. Defense Technologies, an imprint of Pennsylvania-based security equipment manufacturer Safariland, markets the HC canisters as “military-style” smokers, even though the U.S. military actually stopped using HC in grenades in the 1990s due to its extreme toxicity.
May be they listen to church podcasts or the clueless UFC commentator.That’s heartening, albeit to a small extent.

Absolutely. Raw projection of political power.That's basically a Gestapo act, eh?
Wouldn’t be surprised if they rolled up to her house in an APC.watching that 'raid' on her home by those cops really shows how fcucked up this country is.
as if we needed that with all the other police BS going on....
Wish her the best of luck.Former Bernie Sanders presidential campaign co-chair Nina Turner has filed paperwork to launch a run for Congress, pursuing a House seat that would become vacant if President-elect Joe Biden’s HUD Secretary-Designate, Rep. Marcia Fudge (D-OH), is confirmed to her cabinet post.
According to FEC records, Turner filed a statement of organization for “Nina Turner for US” committee on Wednesday, giving a P.O. box in Cleveland as its headquarters. Fudge currently represents Ohio’s 11th district, which also encompasses that city.
Turner, an outspoken progressive, was previously an Ohio state senator from 2008 – 2014 and then ran, and lost, Ohio’s 2014 secretary of state race. After the 2016 campaign, Turner became president of the Our Revolution, the progressive political organization that was an off-shoot of Sanders’ failed campaign. When the Vermont senator again ran for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020, Turner came aboard as Sanders’ campaign co-chair.
After Sanders’ primary defeat by Biden, Turner expressed her very pubic dissatisfaction with the choices in the 2020 general election, comparing the choice of voting for Biden or Trump as the difference between eating half or a whole “bowl of shit,” respectively.
A Monday story on Cleveland.com explained that if Fudge were to be confirmed, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine (R) would have to call a special election to replace her in the House of Representatives. The site named Turner as well as several Ohio state legislators as possible candidates for the open seat.
Her history suggests she deserves no mercy. Wrap her in the confederate flag she loves so much and (metaphorically) burn her on a pile of corporate lobbiest money.If you had a pet in this condition, you’d have to start thinking about mercy.

The case in question is relatively sleepy, with no protesting crowds or eager reporters waiting in the wings. Facebook v. Duguid asks whether a 29-year-old law, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, applies to all telemarketing calls or only governs calls made using technology that was available in 1991 when the law was originally passed. This seemingly small point carries widespread consequences. If Facebook prevails, telemarketers everywhere will be freed from the TCPA’s most effective restrictions, which ban live calls to your cellphone. This means more spam calls (and you thought it was bad already).
The most effective way to deal with this would be to get Thomas, ACB, Alito, NK, and Gorsitches cell numbers and sign them up. For. Every. Possible. Service.

How big of an issue is that in the US? How many spam calls do you receive per week over there?
at least 1/day, sometimes more. car insurance usually.How big of an issue is that in the US? How many spam calls do you receive per week over there?
Multiple per day.How big of an issue is that in the US? How many spam calls do you receive per week over there?
Yeah. Being in sales this really sucks. Just a few years ago I would have no issues answering an unknown number, but these days I send everything to VM.Multiple per day.
I get about two/day. Includes at least 3 recorded messages in Chinese (I think) a week.How big of an issue is that in the US? How many spam calls do you receive per week over there?
I got a spam call from my own number back in July. I also pay for a land line but no phone hooked up but I use the number when I don't want to give out my cell. It receives about 25 calls a day.How big of an issue is that in the US? How many spam calls do you receive per week over there?
Of course, as predicted, it gets worse. Reading the thread I'm not sure they even had their warrant when they did it. She asked them for it and only got it three hours later.Absolutely. Raw projection of political power.

I joked earlier that they may have ridden in an APC to her house. Probably not, but who knows with this mentality.Of course, as predicted, it gets worse. Reading the thread I'm not sure they even had their warrant when they did it. She asked them for it and only got it three hours later.
