Why do most Americans use an iPhone?
  • I have no need for third party apps.

    For anything beyond texting or scrolling, I have a desktop.

    Defying mask mandates wasn’t due to a ‘love for freedom’ but due to delusions and selfishness.

  • White House posts despicable video of immigrants being deported.
  • That isn't really happening at a scale you need to be worried about. They are net contributors to your economy and commit crimes at lower rates.

    The only down side is some wage suppression in low-skilled areas like picking fruit.

  • Trump cuts threaten a ‘generation of scientists’ as many weigh leaving US
  • Scotland/Ireland doesn’t seem to be shifting right! Not like elsewhere anyway.

    We have a weird dynamic in Glasgow where even our football hooligans are pro-Palestine and even showed up anti-blm marches (and chased them away).

    Several unis here, lots of Serbians, Italians, Spaniards in the faculty and is more diverse than many of the English towns that rioted.

    No riots here, we were doing this instead.

    Pay will probably be shite comparatively and the weather is miserable but can’t fault it otherwise

  • No Way
  • Took me a while but I found what I was thinking of.

    It was the Fired FEC head

    But it wasn't because she was fired they didn't go forward, it's because the board is 3/3 dem/rep so a republican would need to 'flip'

    Asked by Alicia Menendez, "What is most alarming to you?" she replied, "Well, I can't talk about anything that would be currently before the commission by law, complaints that are filed and any investigatory action remains confidential until the cases are closed."

    She then continued. "But I can tell you that in the past we have had 63 separate complaints filed against the president or his political committees –– and not all complaints are well-founded not all complaints are worth the agency's time to pursue. But our nonpartisan professional staff has advocated that we pursue 31 of those cases and, in not a single one, did we get four votes to move forward."

    This is one of the things they talked about in the election interference hearings in December too

    “Almost every matter that the FEC has not pursued is associated with the former president [Trump]” (Rep Torres, about 57minutes in)
