Similar to swimming?
Gaining a lot of steam amongst 'conservatives'.
Someday, maybe, people will realize the NYT and almost every other media outlet have lied in the past and will continue to do so in the future. It's their version of "journalism" nowadays. We all still know it as lying.
I believe the idiots who put the rose emoji next to their twat names claim to be "Democratic Socialists", which is a pretty way of saying "Communist"
What the hell does this even mean? Not a closer? And who is this random young lady as if she is some sort of expert?
Had a conference call this morning with a bunch of engineers from my company and from our client for one of the projects I’m working on. This client is a major woke entertainment company everybody has heard of with a huge amount of facilities just south of Orlando. Most of you have probably been there.
Anywhoo, the meeting started with 5 minutes of chatter about how much professional sports suck and how stupid it is that the mlb all star game was moved from Georgia to a more white location with more strict voting laws. The managing engineers and operators for this company were leading the discussion. I thought it was interesting because they were definitely speaking against the public opinions of their employer.
these companies who think they can mold public opinion are in for a rude awakening if/when their political cover goes away.

Poso agrees and so do I.
Desantis folks are just upset and reaching for something new.
Trump regretted endorsing him until the Wuhan Charlie cuz he was essentially a RINO (red flag laws, west cost corporate donors, ect).
I started a thread on it.
I don't care what Poso thinks. He is controlled oppo. DeSantis is a legit politician that actually governs with common sense.
Link on Trump regretting endorsing him.
I like Poso. I like Desantis too.
Yall are mean

Emojis don't mean everything.
She is America 1st. She is doing tons of work on organizing for 2022 & 2024.
Out.
That's why he would need to do a lot to ever having a chance at my vote or support.
Trumps & private citizens are much more preferable.
Good for her. Gen Flynn also said everyone pushing to make 2024 the big year should kick rocks, they're trying to make the election of 2020 lose attention
Yup.
What we do for 2022 and 2024 is about 2020.
Without 2020 we wouldn't have the same focus and drive for change that we finally do now.
Agreed. Just bullshitting, but still keeping faith and holding lines n shit
Several other bills are being discussed in the Texas House tomorrow regarding gun control. Two are the House versions of the Senate bills posted yesterday. However, there are 3 bills from lunatic dems to severely restrict gun rights. Among them is HB 118 which is Pelosi's HR 8 to make universal background checks mandatory even to include passing on weapons to family members regardless of how they are obtained---gift or inherited. They want everyone to use a FFDealer to facilitate all transactions.
Despite pushback from landlords, Ann Arbor bans criminal background checks
Ann Arbor landlords are now prohibited from doing criminal background checks, with few exceptions.
Ann Arbor says that criminals deserve housing you and landlords don't get to ask questions.
ANN ARBOR, MI — Despite pushback from some landlords, Ann Arbor is banning criminal background checks of renters, with few exceptions.
City Council voted unanimously this week to give final approval to the city’s new Fair Chance Access to Housing ordinance in hopes of ending housing discrimination against people with criminal backgrounds and helping formerly incarcerated residents return to society and lead productive lives.
“I’m delighted that we’re going to be moving forward on this,” Mayor Christopher Taylor said, calling it an area of discrimination that has real-life consequences.
“By banning the box with respect to leases, we will be expanding housing opportunities and the opportunities for returning community members to integrate fully back into our community, and that is a social good and I’m proud we’re doing it.”
Council Member Lisa Disch, D-1st Ward, cited research showing people who’ve been incarcerated once are seven times more likely to experience homelessness.
“That is not only a dangerous and precarious way to live, but it does make it really difficult to get a job and reenter society,” she said. “So, I think we’re doing a good thing here."
City officials have heard complaints from several landlords who argue the ordinance is taking away a tool they use to screen out housing applicants and keep their communities safe from dangerous criminals.
“There’s some people that when they are released from prison they can move on into society, and there’s other ones that still struggle with that,” Charlie Foster, a longtime Ann Arbor landlord, told City Council last month. “And I think as landlords we should have that right to have more checks put in the system than what you guys are offering us.”
Council Member Travis Radina, D-3rd Ward, said he’s grateful for the support for the ordinance from other community members
“I am incredibly enthusiastic about this,” he said, arguing many people in the community will benefit from it.
The city also needs to continue working toward expanding affordable housing, he said.
$5.1M from new Ann Arbor affordable housing tax could go toward downtown high-rise
The new ordinance makes it illegal for landlords to inquire in any way about a housing applicant’s criminal history or require disclosure of criminal history, or to deny someone housing if such information is received.
Violators can face penalty fines up to $500 for each day a violation occurs, plus other possible enforcement action.
The ordinance makes exceptions for landlords required in some cases to take a person’s criminal history into account.
That includes landlords who receive federal funding or accept tenants with federally subsidized housing vouchers.
The ordinance states it will not be a violation for a landlord to comply with federal or state laws that require them to exclude tenants based on certain types of criminal history. But in cases when that may apply, landlords still can’t inquire about someone’s criminal history until after they’ve determined the applicant is otherwise qualified to rent their apartment and they’ve made a conditional offer of a lease.
That rental agreement would commit the landlord to providing the apartment as long as the applicant meets federal and state mandated criminal history criteria.
Under federal law, there are three categories of people not eligible for federally subsidized housing: people convicted of producing meth in federally funded housing, people on the lifetime sex offender list, and people using illegal drugs.
Council Member Elizabeth Nelson, D-4th Ward, credited one of her constituents, Aaron Suganuma, a formerly incarcerated resident, for raising the issues that led to the ordinance.
“It feels to me like one of the best examples of how your local government works to reflect the interests and concerns that might start with an individual and then turn into a larger issue that’s going to have a really positive impact on many, many more people,” she said.
“And so I just want to thank all the people who spent time and worked on this ordinance to make it happen,” she said, thanking the city’s Human Rights Commission and legal staff.
The Human Rights Commission approved a resolution recently citing estimates that one in three adults in the U.S. has an arrest or conviction record, and nearly half of all children have at least one parent with a criminal record.
The commission also expressed concerns that private criminal record databases from which landlords sometimes pull information are not always accurate.
It also pointed to the disparate impacts on Black people, who are more likely to be incarcerated.
“The unmet housing needs of formerly incarcerated people in Ann Arbor are an acute challenge to dignity, public health and safety and equality,” it stated. “And statistical racial inequities at every stage of the criminal justice system translates into a racial disparity in access to housing.”
Similar measures to prevent discrimination based on criminal history are being enacted or considered in other communities.

Sports can be anything that is a physical competition.
Most engineers have the ability to think for themselves, regardless of their employers.
Some drug dealers from Louisville came out to my county to send a message to a local drug dealer. They didn't anticipate bystanders seeing 2 black dudes beat a woman then shoot into a mans apartment would net them getting the fuck shot out themselves. They tried to run but wrecked due to blood loss. Unfortunately we have really good hospitals and those guys will be paid for by tax payers for several years.
sigh!
One doesn't have to want the crackhead to acknowledge Ron has red flags.Yeah fuck him and his Naval service and all the awesome shit he's done for Florida. Wish we had the gay crackhead instead.
The "awesome shit" he has done in Florida was pretty no brainer shit and kinda late still anyways.
