What…uh…what would those “ethical questions” even be? Because the obvious ones seem pretty simple to answer.
Traders in companies running online prediction markets with ties to Donald Trump Jr. can bet on the outcome of events that his father affects — an example of the ethical questions raised by Trump family business ventures during the president’s second term.

Jeff Bezos is no stranger to issues of press freedom. He got a lot of goodwill when helping WaPo's Jason Rezaian get out of Iran. He stood with Khashoggi's wife after the Saudi gov murdered him.
Which makes his silence on one of WaPo's reporters getting raided on home soil all the more salient.

As a dual national, I want to say in all sincerity, and without malice, that stuff like this isn’t helpful.
Your Constitution was eviscerated on January 20th. Americans just haven’t realized it yet.

I feel pretty misunderstood by people living in rural areas, and yet mysteriously, this isn’t considered a problem.
I’m sick of putting up with this idiotic display of obeisance to chucklefucks simply because they live in rural areas.

Republicans control all 3 branches of government. Even when they don't, both parties pump out constant rhetoric about "real Americans" living in rural areas.
The entire premise of this article is a conservative-fluffing myth. Cities have more political power because that's where most people live!

He's not going to cancel any elections, but there will absolutely be plenty of fuckery, because the GOP has established infrastructure and practices for that, and people at the state level who will do the work.
Trump says a lot of deranged shit, but, per this Reuters article — and the threats of invoking the Insurrection Act in Minnesota this morning — he is very clearly exploring how to cancel the midterms.

the question to ask about this is, okay, he wants to cancel the midterms. how does he get the VA state board of elections to cancel the midterms? how does he get the georgia board of elections to do it? how does he convince republican house members to quit their jobs and give up their paychecks?

You can really see where the #SeaKraken PK woes started, and when their short-handed play stabilized.

here's goal differentials at 5v5 and on special teams. Oilers' struggles this year can be boiled down to their 5v5 play. special teams are the only thing keeping them afloat.

OT, but the "what applies under which circumstances and when" part of law is always so fun.
Not sure who needs to hear this, but the Insurrection Act isn’t the same as “martial law.” It authorizes the molitary to engage in civil law enforcement. And not clear that even then, whether they can enforce state criminal laws

i think this gets at something important which is that normal people are rightly pissed off that they’re having normal time stolen from them by this ravaging horde of jumped up mall cops. everybody has to work in the morning! why is it THEIR job to hold their community together in such a basic way!

He’s definitely garbarino.
Rep. Garbarino: "What really bothers me is how comfortable people in this country have become to not listen to law enforcement. When a cop tells me not to do something, I don't do it. That should be the normal way things go."
