Even though two 2020 election workers in Fulton County, Ga., endured an onslaught of threats and harassment following baseless fraud claims, people there are eager to serve as poll workers this year.

 

His intellectual defenders make their case that the danger is overblown.

 

Scammers have duped consumers out of more than $1 billion by exploiting Walmart’s lax security. The company has resisted taking responsibility while breaking promises to regulators and skimping on training.

 

The state could be the last stand for Republicans who don't want Donald Trump to be their nominee again. There likely won't be another opportunity with such a moderate Republican electorate.

 

In Washington and other states, independent redistricting commissions have fallen prey to partisanship, just like the legislative bodies they were meant to replace.

 

Nikki Haley is acting like Ron DeSantis isn't even in the race anymore — and DeSantis' campaign isn't spending on ads at all. Here's a breakdown of their closing arguments before Tuesday's primary.

Anyone who votes for this asshole is, at the very least, okay with all kinds of shitty behavior. From making fun of people with medical conditions, denigrating all stripes of non-white, non-male folks, all the way to attempting to prevent the transfer of presidential administrations through force; All of it is owned by anyone who votes for Trump.

Two years ago, a "once in a hundred years" wind storm downed trees that had been around for decades. Many of them fell on houses, garages, etc. Last year, the once in a hundred years wind storm took down even more. We haven't had the every hundred year storm this year yet but I am expecting it. The issues are serious.

"It proves that Google’s app store practices are illegal and they abuse their monopoly to extract exorbitant fees, stifle competition and reduce innovation."

Worked for a small publisher that nixed a couple of mobile app projects (that I thought would be really cool) because of the monopoly position Google has. I really dislike how mobile programming is gated by Google+Apple.

I wonder if real estate investors are still hopeful of a comeback or if they are trying to think of new uses. Office park real estate, must be particularly hard hit - who would rent those horrors now that they can afford a place in a highrise.

It's hard not to schadenfreude thinking about all the predicament of the owners of the cynically bland environments they tried to stuff us in.... And they wanted us to pay for parking on top of it. Hoping we never go back.

They say we become numb to his rhetoric, but I am still astonished by the incoherency of his speeches. The excerpt above is just a cluttering of words that don't really say anything.
