Illegal solicitation of campaign donations

samedi 17 octobre 2020 à 02:00

Senator Lindsey Graham asked for campaign donations in an interview while in the judiciary committee's meeting room. It is illegal to do that.

Individual rewilders

Individual rewilders release locally lost species to try to preserve them, and occasionally it works. But usually it does not.

Los Angeles County thugs attacked then arrested reporter

vendredi 16 octobre 2020 à 02:00

Los Angeles County thugs attacked then arrested reporter Josie Huang as she was reporting outside a hospital. Then they gave a reason which was an obvious lie and brought charges against her.

I've heard that the charges against Ms Huang have been dropped, but there is no sign of an investigation of the attack on her.

Barrett's confirmation to the Supreme court

*Barrett's Confirmation to the Supreme Court "Would Be a Catastrophe for the Climate."*

Barrett's testimony

vendredi 16 octobre 2020 à 02:00

Barrett's testimony implies that she thinks all people can simply choose their sexual orientation.

I don't investigate all the associations and attitudes of an organization before I give a talk for it. I don't have time. (Indeed, I expect, when I give a talk for a university, that it is doing some harmful things that I publicly condemn, such as developing nonfree software, obtaining software patents, and teaching that it is wrong to share copies of published works.)

So I think it is possible that Barrett did not know about those specific positions of the ADF when she gave talks for its fellowship program.

But it is also possible that she knew them and agreed with them, and is now covering it up.
