Guys. Mandani just bulldozed the Democratic establishment. Walked into the White House, and hypnotized Donald Trump into a democratic socialist. The spell will wear off as Miller, Vought and others reacting in horror rush in to break the spell. But this is hilarious!

If we can't regulate them, we should completely overhaul the tort system so that the Salt Typhoon type breaches result in lawsuits so financially devastating, the entire upper echelon of leadership at these companies get decapitated and are left penniless.
Breaking: The FCC has voted 2-1 along party lines to eliminate cybersecurity requirements for telecom companies that the commission adopted at the end of the Biden administration.
Telecoms had lobbied for the change. Democrats said it would invite another Salt Typhoon.
Story coming shortly.

Today is an excellent day to restore Link’s account, as other people who did the exact same thing were only given short suspensions.
He was one of the most positive voices here and he deserves to be reinstated.

These questions are like "Tomas works with Jade. Tomas recently murdered Jade's assistant for non-sexual reasons. Could this still create a hostile workplace for Jade?"

This is SUCH an important thread for white people (men especially) to read and learn to let go of your defensiveness around white privilege because you are not just harming others you are harming yourself with it!!!
One of the most liberating truths I’ve learned, and the one that white folx, particularly white men, still struggle to face, is this:
The myth of white supremacy explains your behavior.
It does not, and has never, determined my value.
