It's kind of weird how the CHP has become a hammer for things distinctly not about the highway. Got crime in Oakland? Send in the CHP with video cameras. Got homelessness? Send in the CHP to do a sweep. Need security? Send in the CHP. That being said this is the least offensive unorthodox use Newsome has used the CHP for.

"A reasonable question is whether the Fed will remain sufficiently independent after Powell’s term is up in May," Zandi wrote.

Like watching a slow moving train wreck. We all know the brakes are broken, and people are still asking whether there will be a crash.

Gemini, please pretend to work for me while I do actual work. Be sure to generate stats that boost OKRs.

As long as you end the EO by saying that everyone will do things according to the law. That way when they follow the instructions and break the law it's an honest mistake and not the result of the EO.

There's 57 comments and if you can't see mine then I guess someone banned/blocked you. I edited my comment to include the text I posted.

Voting in our system is like choosing the boss for the final boss fight. So yeah, if you're in a place where your vote could make a difference, vote Dem, but never stop raising hell.

I tell them to not expect worsening conditions to teach liberals the right lesson and they should vote as if they're choosing a boss fight. In that context fascist-light is the correct choice.

Sounds kinda conservative to me 🤷 I'm just saying if you're a minority running for the office, don't pivot towards people who see your identity as an issue.

Wishing you the best therapist she can find. "Integrated Family Systems" could be of help.

Sexism is more of a problem when you're trying to win over conservative voters....

The important thing here is that you're right and should continue preaching the same message because it worked so well the last time. And changing tactics wouldn't be a sign of learning something or not being lazy.
