Do you mean FALSELY yelling fire in a crowded theater? I’m not aware that it is illegal to install fire alarms in theaters, but pulling one if there isn’t a fire is frowned upon.
I don’t believe that there should be any punishment for telling the truth, yes.
Many people have adopted the mantra that “freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences”. I disagree with those people.
Biden’s reaction was far better than those of certain toddlers in the GOP, who immediately — and without attribution or any facts to back it up — found ways to link Biden to the actions of Hamas.
This is a bizarre article.
The IRS has said it won’t increase audits on households earning less than $400,000 annually.
Trust but verify. MEE looks fine to me now, but you can find wackos anywhere.
On 20 October 2022, MEE cut ties with Palestinian journalist Shatha Hammad after it was discovered that she made a Facebook post in 2014 which praised Adolf Hitler for “sharing the same ideology” and the Holocaust. The Thomson Reuters Foundation had withdrawn a 2022 Kurt Schork Award in International Journalism from her, after the discovery, on 18 October.
EU officials confirmed to TechCrunch that an investigation has not been taken at this point. Clearly, though, yesterday’s development (and the pace at which regulators are moving) is a strong indication of the bloc’s direction of travel.
This report was substantially revised to clarify a number of aspects, including — most saliently — that the EU has sent a formal request for information to X at this point. This could prefigure a formal announcement of an investigation but is not, yet, that formal technical step. We also clarified the scale of financial penalties possible under the DSA if a breach is confirmed; and added details of the regulation’s crisis response mechanism. We also fixed an error in the original report which referred to Interpol, rather than Europol.

I’m assuming that the Dems won’t run Hillary again. If that happens, all bets are off.
Well, he’s lost an election since 2016 and as he says, “nobody likes a loser”.
Just to be clear, I was talking only about the presidency. If trump is nominated, I think the probability of trump being elected to the presidency is zero, or it will be zero when election day rolls around.
I understand why there aren’t any republicans eager to show trump the door though. I think that is a mistake on their part, but I understand and agree with what you’re saying about that.
Recently, I think. I am sure other states will take similar action.
I have a hard time believing that the republicans are stupid enough to give trump the nomination, but it is quite easy to underestimate how stupid people are.
Gonna be hard to get elected without being on the ballot. I don’t see how the republican party can believe they have any chance of winning with trump.
But we all know that intent to “save the children” isn’t good enough,
I think that is frequently overlooked when it is convenient to do so.
Looking at her wikipedia page, it seems to me that her position could be a lot worse.
In 2022 she voted for H.R. 8373 (“The Right to Contraception Act”), a bill designed “to protect a person’s ability to access contraceptives and to engage in contraception, and to protect a health care provider’s ability to provide contraceptives, contraception, and information related to contraception”.

In 2021, Mace was among a handful of Republican representatives who did not sign onto an amicus brief to overturn Roe v. Wade.
…
In an interview on Face the Nation, she said she disagreed with the recently passed abortion ban in Florida, which was signed into law by Governor Ron DeSantis: “Signing a six-week ban that puts women who are victims of rape and girls who are victims of incest and in a hard spot isn’t the way to change hearts and minds. It’s not compassionate. The requirements [DeSantis] has for rape victims are too much, not something that I support. It’s a non-starter. I am a victim of rape. I was raped by a classmate at the age of 16. I am very wary, and the devil is always in the details, but we’ve got to show more care and concern and compassion for women who’ve been raped. I don’t like that this bill was signed in the dead of night”.

I’ve heard people state it as fact, but people repeat all sorts of things that they’ve heard. I don’t know myself.
This is disappointing news.
There is a theory that travel websites use trackers and other information readily available about your device and browser to advertise different prices to different people.
Is it just a theory? I thought it was known.
The French government doesn’t care much about that.

If you could just do that, it wouldn’t be a mystery.
I don’t think disagreeing with someone is punishment.
