I see this as the SC simply endorsing the principle of qualified immunity enjoyed by every government worker from dog catcher to judges to DAs. Seems like a very pedestrian, benign, and uncontroversial decision if one accepts the QI concept. Why the hysteria ( disguised as snark)?

Good thing the Japs and krauts did not think of this during WWII. Maybe we would not have waved them in. Biden would have.

"Men" and "Women" are not genders. They are FIT TYPES!!! And only two of those exist as is clearly stated in the bible and millenia of human existence. Natch.

Very profound and very true in any context. Facts are not racist. Facts are not sexist. Facts are not transphobic. So why is it that any fact that does not make a black person appear godlike, or any fact that does not make all women appear flawless, or the fact that a man is not a woman cause the person who states it to face certain social ostracism and the very strong possibility of loss of ability to make a living up to and including total loss of freedom in some jurisdictions? Even in the case of Jewish people: Stating Jews in America have much more influence than the raw numbers of their population percentage would predict - a measurable fact - has caused more than one public figure to lose his job. However, it seems that stating Jews have won many more Nobel Prizes than the raw numbers of their population percentage would predict never results in a job loss.

And how about a state where only citizens can? https://www.themainewire.com/2024/06/49-states-including-maine-are-handing-voter-registration-forms-to-illegal-immigrants-applying-for-welfare/

I am of the opinion that money from outside a jurisdiction should not be able to be used for an election within that jurisdiction. Whether we are talking about local dog catcher or president. The money for an election should come only from within that jurisdiction. I don't know how to square this idea with the first amendment but if the supreme court can figure out how no American has standing when White House tells Twitter what can and can't be posted there then I am sure some supreme court (in)justice can figure out how to make the first amendment work in our favor to keep the foreign influencing PACs and Soros PACs out of our elections.

Nice Sanctuary ya got there, New York. Now don't go imposing your patriarchal western racist imperial colonizing culture on this poor asylum seeking immigrant who is just giving the USA what we deserve by existing.

The exact remorse being reported here would be interesting to know. The article is behind a paywall. This industry "news" site is usually left of hyper-progressives and has been a shill for EVs for at least half a decade. I would not be surprised if their conclusion is that the remorse is that the EV subsidies are too small, EV mandates are too weak, and the biggest remorse is that vehicles operating on organic fuels were not banned during the 1973 oil embargo.

Problems for whom? Democrats' goal is to have illegal aliens registered in many states and then have those ballots cast in every one of those states. Illegal aliens will get to vote more often than any legal citizen anywhere. You are a racist if you don't think this is a good idea and a election denier if you think this is evidence of election fraud in any way.

news flash: 340 million Americans are in danger of experiencing a heat phenomenon tomorrow called "summer". SUVs are to blame.

The questions of the naive and innocent are so endearing.

How is this possible?!? Europe is the green capitol of the world. Mandates. ESG. Bans on gasoline. Windmills and solar panels everywhere which means the electricity is free (I actually heard a CEO of a multi-billion euro German company make the claim that electricity was becoming free due to, you know, made up credits). How is it possible that electricity which is subsidized for cars which are subsidized and most workers can plug in at work for free because it is sustainable and they get ESG points and it is subsidized STILL be too expensive?!? Is it that climate denying racist physics again? Stupid physics. Greta does not approve of charging costs.

Another one bites the dust. Pesky physics. Silly customers preferring cars that work differently from BEV constraints. In other news: Don't these people know about mandates? EPA rules? CAFE requirements? HOW DARE these people have a preference based on actual experience?!? Note - it is probable that most if not all of these 46% were not forced into an EV but were enthusiastic adopters right up to the point the reality struck them in the face. They are definitely not MAGA deplorable climate denying right wing racists. These are probably people who think Greta might be right. HOW DARE THEY?!?

First physics then math then the roads then the universe were all discovered to be racist. Now, the environment has been proven to be systemically racist. What are absurd lefties going to do about it? this Canadian has a plan: "Elizabeth May says it's not enough to say we're in a climate crisis, we have to do more to deal with on of its biggest threats; environmental racism... She says her law will give govt more 'tools' to deal with environmental racism" The environment is so racist that it makes the Nazis look like the racist JV.

Now even some of the physics-semi-literate EV fanboys are starting to realize they were hoaxed.

Guess then we will balance the budget. Just like people who cannot get a mortgage have to live month to month on cash flow and save for big purchases. A mortgage for a house is OK if your monthly income pays down the debt. Paying for groceries and lattes on your credit card while the balance continues going up and you pay only the minimum is no way to live your life nor to run a country. We will learn this soon.

Maybe we should consider them to be reparations.

Hmmm, free "renewable" energy and administration policies are driving the costs of energy so high that we cannot put in place the means to give away more of this free renewable energy for our green wonder cars. Why is this thing called physics always ruining all of our plans?!? Once Petey B can figure out how to use those billions of dollars to get a charging station or two going all will be good. The all we need to do figure out:

It is not the crime that matters. They can make that up like New York does. But show Garland the right man (a man from the political right) and he will find you the crime. Channeling his inner Beria.

Yes. They are fecal matter super spreaders. Green kills.

The definition of Felony changes often. A crime against another person such as rape, murder, etc. might be a felonious choice. But, Rasta, you have probably committed a felony within the past 48 hours and I bet you did not make a decision to do so . https://www.mic.com/articles/86797/8-ways-we-regularly-commit-felonies-without-realizing-it

Allowing annual deficits is taxation of the next generation without representation. Everything can now be called an emergency and, therefore, needs to be financed according to our cowards in Congress. Soon our progeny will be very upset with their ancestors and with good cause. We started down this path during the Wilson administration and it is soon going to get to its logical and inevitable conclusion. Economists warn of "austerity measures will cause recession" but those same ninnies who think "the ability to have a deficit when needed in a particular year of emergency" then applaud policies that think a deficit is mandatory and must be bigger than last year's deficit for "the economy". The same people who think inflation is OK think a ever growing deficit is OK. The reckoning will be devastating when it happens.

Call Merick Garland and tell him you saw Trump on your property with a secret document. SWAT will be there faster than Jimmy Johns (freaky fast) and have authorization to kill all present. Problem solved. But make sure you duck.

Green is not clean. Green kills. Where were the Sierras who tie up all useful projects in courts for decades when we (and by we I mean trees, turtles, you know - the things Sierras really think are important) really needed them to gum up the works? No where to be found. Because it is not really about the environment. It is about sticking it to "the man" whom the Sierras have come around to think of as normal Americans.
