USPTO Wants To Make Bad Patents Unchallengeable. You Have Until December 2nd To Tell Them No.

USPTO Wants To Make Bad Patents Unchallengeable. You Have Until December 2nd To Tell Them No.
The US Patent Office is about to gut the only effective tool we have for killing bad patents—and they're doing it by administrative fiat, without Congress, in a way that would make patent trolling easier than it's been in over a decade. They need to hear from you by Tuesday, December 2nd, or this may become reality. Patent trolling was really holding back all sorts of innovation in the 2000s.

Musk's "time away from politics" involved having Republicans completely revamp the 2021 infrastructure bill so that a huge swath of the $42.5 billion in taxpayer broadband grants are funneled to his company (and away from better options) in exchange for satellite service he already planned to offer

65 years ago on Nov. 14, little Ruby Bridges was escorted into an all-white elementary school in New Orleans. Norman Rockwell, renowned for blissful depictions of Americana, did this remarkable painting for Look magazine. Printed as a double page, over-size spread, it's his masterpiece.

Alan Dershowitz is one of those claiming Epstein was not a pedophile because he pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. "That’s not a pedophile." See this important response from Julia Brown, the brave reporter who broke the news on this

@padilla.senate.gov I ask you to be a leader for progressive action, and democracy with a spine - call on Chuck Schumer to step down as leader of the Senate Democrats. He is no longer up to the task, giving away all leverage for nothing.

I will not support a deal that does nothing to make health care more affordable.

We are in a health care emergency. A simple one-year extension of these tax credits would cost less than Donald Trump’s $40 billion bailout for Argentina.

A vote for this bill is a mistake.

It's a major lesson that the US has never learned: that to have a country where people want to do good things, they have to know that there will be serious consequences for doing bad things.

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.

If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.
Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Right: 'Maryland gerrymandering is an affront to Western civilization!', from today.

He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

ICE detained a Virginia mom while she was driving her 16yo daughter to school bc she couldn’t recall her SS#.

“The agent got flustered and lunged at her,” said her daughter.

ICE arrested her even after she showed proof of legal status.

“I want this video out there because I want my mother home.”
