I grew up fishing using lead split shot sinkers. The common practice is biting down on them to crimp them onto the line. Lead is still the standard. I don’t want to think about how much of that is in my system.

I live in a two party consent state same as Maryland and the law only applies if you have an expectation of privacy. There is no expectation of privacy in a public place OR in a crowd of people.

“Nothing good lasts, nothing bad lasts. The only constant is change.”

It’s definitely a love letter to black music and culture in general. Putting two goofy white guys in front of it all made it palatable to white audiences. Also, the big villains were racist hicks and white supremacists.

Oh great, NOW what am I supposed to do with all this cocaine?!

What network would ever agree to show that? They would lose all their advertisers. Even the far right propaganda machines.

Any cryptography can be broken with enough computing power and time, but that is beside the point. You don’t have to pick the lock if you can just climb through an open window. You get what I am saying?

There are loads of other ways to get credentials besides cracking encryption. Hell, wifi signals can be used to read the motions of a person’s hands over a keyboard with 90% accuracy. https://www.securityweek.com/researchers-use-wifi-signals-read-keystrokes/

BUT, if they can negotiate to give something to peel off a few Republican votes in exchange for things like investigations into the killings of Good and Pretti, body cams on ICE, and no face masks for ICE? Isn’t that better than nothing?

Disagree all you want about it tactically, but at least you recognize the logic, right?

That has been the position of nearly every US politician in both parties for the last 40 years. He also calls for a real ceasefire and a two party state, recognizing Palestine has just as much right to statehood as Israel.

Meanwhile when Trump was asked if it’s his job to uphold the Constitution, he said " I don’t know".

Realistically what do they have the power to do that they aren’t doing? Republicans have control of the House, Senate, Judiciary and 27 state governorships.

When you’ve got one side that mostly follows the rules and one side that mostly cheats, the side that cheats will usually win.

People love blaming the Jews. The National Association of Realtors spent more than the AIPAC last cycle.

Tinfoil hat conspiracy theory right there.
