As an offshoot of this thread, let’s talk about what happens if federal, state, or local officials text, email, call, or show up at your door wanting to talk to you about what you said about the President.
I have a theme, a thesis, a throughline, a leitmotif, which is SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH.

This is a First Amendment question combined with a practical question. The answer is as follows.
First, the First Amendment protects advocating the moral and practical necessity of breaking the law in the abstract.

Sex. They want sex robots.
one of the things I really do not understand is why so much of the development of robots seems to be focused on making them bipedal like humans. Why? It's an insane allocation of resources when it would be much easier to give them three or four "legs" or come up with some new system

How the fuck did the NYT manage to report this story with zero detail about which laws he’s claiming were violated
An FBI agent-in-training filed a lawsuit after he was handed a letter signed by the bureau’s director, Kash Patel, saying that he was being “summarily dismissed” because of “political signage.” The only thing that could be, he quickly realized, was a rainbow pride flag that had hung near his desk.
F.B.I. Trainee Sues After Being Abruptly Fired Over Display of Gay Pride Flag
He described his dismissal as the latest move by senior F.B.I. officials to play politics, damaging morale and hindering the bureau’s ability to carry out its public safety mission.

Well, that was something. Showed up for deportation defense training in Borough Park, trainers arrived, said there was “evolving situation” in Bensonhurst, were we up for heading there, we said Hell yeah, went and met folks on the ground, ICE ended up driving out of the hood with no one detained 🔥✊

Absolutely cannot wait to bust down the doors for a drink made by a company whose unionized workers are on strike in a store that doesn’t want to hire minorities anymore.
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.
The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.
