The judge referenced in this article is for one of the federal trials. He does have charges in Georgia that he wouldn’t be able to pardon, but who knows how that would go down… leading the nation from a Fulton country correctional facility doesn’t sound like fun.
Going to the beach is nicer in a swimsuit than a heavy coat and mittens.
I’d rather do pretty much anything in the heat of Summer than during any of the winter months.
Hardly the first time someone has smiled in a mugshot, guilty or innocent.
If found innocent then it takes on an ‘I told you so’ energy. If guilty it makes you look like an even bigger piece of shit.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the severity of their situation hasn’t fully set in yet. The realization will come crashing down if/when the first of them is found guilty.
Tbh I wouldn’t know what to make of someone wearing a rainbow swastika
Sounds great, but someone would sue again. A loan servicer if not a republican
In this case that’s fair, but in some cases, particularly attempted murders, EMS may have to wait for police to ensure the scene is safe for them to work in anyway. Not to mention most police have at least some first aid training. Police response times are also very important.
Yeah federated platforms like lemmy are a potential solution. I would guess they aren’t more popular because nobody directly profits from the success of these platforms, and since no one entity has control of it people in positions of power may be wary of adopting it.
Also a distributed platform is pretty much always going to be more complicated. This scares off the casual users that make up the majority of social media usernames.
Look at Linux; you can be more open, better on paper, cheaper, and even easier to use in some cases, but the success of online platforms is not a meritocracy. It’s a pageant.
Well he could try to run I suppose. It would be pretty weird to have a presidential candidate running while in hiding in another country.
Unless I’m missing something this seems trivial to test. Just test blood sugar before and after drinking a diet soda. If bloods sugar goes down then the sweetener likely caused a release of insulin. If it doesn’t change then it didn’t.
It seems petty far-fetched. If artificial sweeteners caused a runaway insulin spike then I would expect them to cause a lot of cases of diabetic shock.
Bad move; the house is collateral. The bank can’t foreclose on an education, they definitely can take the house.
Can’t garnish imaginary wages [̲̅$̲̅(̲̅ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°̲̅)̲̅$̲̅]
Of course everyone involved knows they will face consequences, but they may feel those consequences are better than the payments. Courts can’t garnish paychecks that don’t exist and a ruined credit rating only matters if you were ever going to be able to afford to buy a house or car in the first place. Afaik actual jail time isn’t really a thing for defaulting on a loan. If the only leverage the government has to get people to pay the loan is to threaten their future financial security, then anyone who thinks the initial promises of security is bogus has nothing to lose.
There’s also some people who are willing to take the hit just to send a political message.
That said, I suspect nowhere near 62% of borrowers will actually meaningfully boycott in any way.
For (what little) it’s worth, he may be talking about this article:
They do list Florida as the strongest state economy for residents. Not sure what that has to do with Disney’s lawsuit.
Only 92? I think we can break into triple digits by Thanksgiving
A Google shows that they actually approved something similar back and April and got sued for it, but I haven’t been able to figure out how that lawsuit went/is going.
This seems a preposterously terrible decision…
Serious question: why? It seems worse in every way.
Neat, though my money is on him either being crushed or cooked to death before then.
Be reasonable. I supported Bernie too, but I don’t think Hillary would have plotted an insurrection…
Fulton’s a fairly major county, but every little big counts!
His lawyers did… It is literally their job, unfortunately for them
