The FCC immediately changed the website to state that the agency is not independent right after Carr's comments!

We've all been so disgusted with Trump's remarks on the Reiners that it's only now starting to sink in that his broader point is that his critics all deserve to be murdered.

Donald J. Trump is the tackiest person I think I've ever had the misfortune to know about in my entire life, and considering that I was an enlisted man in the army and I lived in Oklahoma for 17 years, that's really saying something.

WTF? ICE is arguing in court that US CITIZENS can be detained, handcuffed, and biometrically screened unless they can prove citizenship on the spot. And that a REAL ID isn't enough. This isn't border security.

We're a couple of weeks into our fundraising campaign, where you can get our first Techdirt challenge coin, celebrating 30 years of Section 230. This is becoming more important than ever as 230 is under attack. Just yesterday a bill was released that would kill 230

Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

So love wobbegongs. Everything is good about the wobbegong. Its name. Its flattened Oscar the Grouch face. Its frondy bits. Its lazy life as a hungry rug. And it’s a shark. Outstanding animal 10/10
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

there is really no difference between the current administration and having the country run by david duke
On that last post: I genuinely cannot think of any good-faith reason to bar international adoptions from those 39 countries. Under this new ban, consulates will refuse adoption visas for any baby from Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela, Nigeria, or any of the 39 other countries.

Not for nothing but federal law contains several statutory provisions that restrict, if not outright prohibit, this unilateral action by the senile dementia patient in the Oval.
War Powers Act. War Crimes Act. Anti-Piracy Act. Neutrality Act.
All still on the books.

Forget all this. The President has no fucking authority to declare war on anyone.
International law is great. It's important. But this shit is illegal as a matter of AMERICAN law

It is international law 101 that a military blockade is not just a violation of the UN Charter, but a crime of aggression.
Unless that blockade is in response to an 'armed attack.'
None of President's Trump's list of complaints come close to an armed attack.

I asked what I should use instead of firefox and someone said “floorp” and I legitimately thought it was a bit for like five minutes. tech has gone beyond making the torment nexus real to making poob real.
