This is to circumvent election laws. They employ these people as spokespeople and pay them a million dollars for giving a single appearance. Nothing prevents them from getting up there and saying “fuck Trump and Elon is a slaver” at all.
I mean fuck Musk and fuck Trump for this, but probably not because these folks who “win” are frauds
Which instance?
Oh I misread that…call it election nerves. My bad
ackshuyally
This is /c/politicsmemes holy shit lol
Drat. Thanks 😂
Does this imply that if I am standing on an object moving at a constant speed in a straight line, and I am lifting and dropping a sufficiently massive object such that I’m causing the object in standing on to accelerate towards the object I’m dropping, that eventually I’ll slow or stop the object I’m standing on?
The FBI uniform crime report is fairly authoritative, but you should prepare yourself that this person can’t be convinced by reality. https://www.politifact.com/article/2024/sep/27/whats-behind-recent-false-claims-about-immigrants/
The NYT has always been a rag for the oligarchs. Nothing more, nothing less.
Yeah I was being hyperbolic for effect, but the point is that he owns the WaPo so that he can use it for his own personal social and political gain, not to make money off of it. I doubt the WaPo readership will substantially drop from this. And I have many questions about the people who still read his rag
The Post could lose all its subscribers and Bezos could still easily cover costs. He isn’t in the newspaper business for the money. He bought it for exactly moments like these. 8% is how much he just paid to hedge his bets
Well yeah, he wants a pardon
Burner email and phone number
This was productive and I’m sure you convinced a whole lot of people
They’re suing him for copying scenes shot for shot from their movie after they told him explicitly not to
In general that would be pretty easy to identify. If the number of votes were large enough to impact an election you’d see voting numbers that are far greater than you expect based on the population and demographics of the area served by a particular voting office. In addition you’d see counts greater than you expect when certain people are working but not for others.
In addition usually you have to check in at a desk or table to get your ballot. An official dishonestly stuffing the ballot box would also have to somehow fabricate real voters checking in at the desk, or else there’d be more ballots than people who checked in and they’d identify the fraud. Where I live you check in with your ID card so unless the official had a bunch of IDs of valid registered voters they’d be caught.
Lastly voting fraud is a crime pretty much everywhere, so getting caught is bad.
A more realistic version of voting fraud is what is being planned in the US: getting supporters of a candidate (in this case Trump) to volunteer at voting locations and having those people fabricate evidence of fraud. This can just be their testimony, but it can be used later in lawsuits to give face value validity to accusations that the election was stolen, and used as justification for violence or a coup. This is what Trump tried, poorly, in 2020. They will try better in 2024.
The whole song slaps so hard
November rain? Holy shit that song is long as hell, I’m dying imagining Trump swaying along to the third guitar solo in the last 10 minutes
Sea of Thieves overall best. Hunt: Showdown a close second
That’s why they are “employing” them as spokespeople. They are not paying them to register. They are paying them to represent the PAC, and the job is only available to registered voters in some states.
Still slimy and still questionably legal but not obviously in violation of that statute
