Republicans contend Mayorkas' "willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law" on immigration amounts to "high crimes and misdemeanors" for failing to manage the U.S.-Mexico border.

 

Even though two 2020 election workers in Fulton County, Ga., endured an onslaught of threats and harassment following baseless fraud claims, people there are eager to serve as poll workers this year.

 

His intellectual defenders make their case that the danger is overblown.

 

Scammers have duped consumers out of more than $1 billion by exploiting Walmart’s lax security. The company has resisted taking responsibility while breaking promises to regulators and skimping on training.

 

The state could be the last stand for Republicans who don't want Donald Trump to be their nominee again. There likely won't be another opportunity with such a moderate Republican electorate.

Anyone who votes for this asshole is, at the very least, okay with all kinds of shitty behavior. From making fun of people with medical conditions, denigrating all stripes of non-white, non-male folks, all the way to attempting to prevent the transfer of presidential administrations through force; All of it is owned by anyone who votes for Trump.

 

Hunter Biden, the president's son, appeared in the audience at a congressional hearing on holding him in contempt of Congress for refusing to testify behind closed doors.

 

Republican state officials are advancing new legal arguments in the courts that threaten to erode the Voting Rights Act's protections against racial discrimination in the election process.

"It proves that Google’s app store practices are illegal and they abuse their monopoly to extract exorbitant fees, stifle competition and reduce innovation."

Worked for a small publisher that nixed a couple of mobile app projects (that I thought would be really cool) because of the monopoly position Google has. I really dislike how mobile programming is gated by Google+Apple.

This guy nails it. I completely missed how the open AI drama was, at bottom, a marketing blitz.

I, for one, would like to see more water-based everything. Especially motion pictures. For instance, a movie about that swimming guy, what was his name? Aquatic Man was it?
