If transgender people don't exist, then exactly whom are they trying to kick out?

But when you do shoot yourself in the foot, it blows your whole leg off.
The Federal Open Market Committee has 12 members. Jerome Powell has one vote; the board of governors have 7 votes. Jerome Powell announces and explains the decisions of the committee to the public, but it is insane to imagine that he is making those decisions alone without the backing of a majority of the committee.
The person or company who imports the goods pays the tariffs. The tariffs go to the US Treasury where they are mixed with other revenue like income tax. The government then spends that money on all of the usual stuff.
The actual, Actual Final Confederate Flag carried to Appomattox (also cleans minor kitchen stains):
At least it lets the police do some ballistics testing to verify that the bullets at the scene came out of that gun.
If you can account for all of the bullets and preferably all of the shell casings as well, it goes a long way to rule out more complicated scenarios like additional firearms or shooters.
They add both sugar and acid, what else ya want?
MSG? Oh wait...
I bet their free energy machine even has a secret plug into the wall!
It sounds like she's saying that regardless of how culpable she may have been, she should be covered by one of the sweetheart immunity deals that the feds made with Epstein.
For those who might not be familiar, the background still appears to be from the infamous police chase of OJ Simpson in a white Ford Bronco.
OJ Simpson was acquitted of murder after the LAPD bungled a bunch of evidence handling. Putting Obama in the place of Simpson and Trump in the place of LAPD is a massive racist dog whistle to a lot of people.
That's not quite right. In sci fi there are rules that remain logically consistent, based on known physics or not. In fantasy, they can make up the rules as they go along.
Compare Star Trek and Star Wars. Trek's subspace field theory is not any kind of known physics, but Trek is still sci fi. Because the subspace fields are fairly consistent about what they do. Star Wars' fan base damn near revolted when the series hinted that The Force might not be purely mystical.
Sci fi doesn't have to explain what the rules are to the reader. They just have to be be discoverable using the scientific method. Dragonriders of Pern is hard science fiction, originally published in Analog.

Okay folks, here's the financial breakdown.
Total compensatory damages, covering actual harms (tangible and intangible): $129 million. Punitive damages: $200 million. Sum: $329 million.
Punitive damages are capped at 3x compensatory damages, but that's not a factor here because it's less than 2x.
Tesla was assigned 33% of the blame. The driver is 67% to blame.
That gives Tesla a bill of ($129 million * 33%) + ($200 million), because the punitive damages were assessed against Tesla only. Total Tesla payout: $242 million.
The driver is liable for the rest: $87 million. Plaintiffs will presumably be able to extract a tiny fraction of that from insurance.
