AOC isn’t currently trying to get the FTC to approve of a multi billion dollar media conglomerate merger. Had that not been the case, CBS could have easily won against Trump. They also didn’t actually admit legal culpability. It was just a $16 million shakedown, and everyone knows it was total bullshit.

AOC doesn’t have that kind of liability. Of course, she would have more difficulty in paying lawyers fees, for a legal case that would likely drag out for years.

She’s legally in the clear because Trump is an adjudicated rapist. It’s only slander/liable if the claims are untrue.

This isn’t about winning the case, they just want to force her to spend a gigantic amount of money on a legal defense that will drag on for years and which Trump can use to smear AOC.

I’m poor, so I’ll do what I can. Especially if it means ignoring people I’ve seen shoplifting. Because, no, I didn’t.

If these people had any financial acumen, they wouldn’t be walking into random banks, trying to convince them to give them free money.

Thing is, you can’t get car insurance without valid registration. At least, not in any state I’ve lived in.

Predictably pathetic?

Stop using chrome.

Keep in mind: Trump isn’t doing this for the right reasons. He’s doing it because Putin pissed him off, and Trump is one of the most vindictive people on the planet.

It’s a race to the bottom with vaccine denial, with Alberta in the lead

I remember that. It was so cool.

I really miss when Apple made devices that had those awesome little touches. I still think Apple devices are pretty great, but they used to be better.

Sleep function works pretty flawlessly on macOS. Always has. The hibernation function is pretty great, too.

In fact, I think it’s rather brave considering that getting fired is probably the least terrible thing that could happen
