  • Texas hospitals prepare to gather data on treating non-citizens

    Jump

  • They do especially in Texas which has no income tax. So even immigrants working under the table pay what they owe to Texas

  • Hungary: Orban compares EU to USSR, urges people to 'resist'

    Jump

  • The EU one is actually more strongly worded than the NATO one, if I recall correctly. Basically NATO's standards are to strongly suggest countrues help in whatever way the country thinks necessary but not require it. EU's requires countries to provide support including military support.

  • Vince McMahon and WWE accused of allowing 'rampant' sexual exploitation of young boys by announcer in new lawsuit

    Jump

  • Oh yeah. These allegations and his role in them go back years. Behind the Bastards did a pretty good series of episodes on McMahon. The guy is a massive piece of rapist shit.

  • Why Are Trump Supporters Suddenly Freaked Out About Deepfakes?

  • I swear that neither would lose him a single goddamn vote.

  • He tried to force Rita Chatter ton to give him a bj but she refused and he raped her in his limo. Mario Mancini corroborated the events.

    He also appears to have forced a paralegal into a threesome a few years ago and shit on her...

  • US economic resilience in wake of pandemic, inflation battle 'fantastic achievement'

    Jump

  • And yet you'll have dipshits on Pierce Morgan saying that the big question "are you better of now than you are for years ago?" Implying that most people are doing worse than they were for years ago...during the height of the pandemic.

  • 2% is the target. Do you want them to go into explaining why deflating to 2019 prices is a bad fucking idea?

    As for the job market, hiring is up and unemployment just went down when they were already alright. That's not stagnation. Sure it sucks for some sectors like tech (anybody know if decent paying tech jobs, hit me up pretty please) but most of the rest of the job market is good.

  • You should have started with:

    Vince McMahon?

    Vince McMahon the rapist?

  • Gun Companies Gave Customers’ Sensitive Personal Information to Political Operatives

  • Something tells me gun nuts will waive away the violation of privacy that gun companies sharing gun purchasing into with government officials represents.

  • Clearly fines are just a cost of doing business for Ratchy. Whoever approved Derrick to work on that machine should be arrested. Same goes for the other violations.

  • People of Lemmy, what games have you been playing lately?

    Jump

  • Currently Green Hell. Took me a bit to not be mauled by a jaguar or get bitten by a snake.

    My last game was Skyward Sword.

  • Arkansas May Have Vast Lithium Reserves, Researchers Say

    Jump

  • Yeah. The lake only currently exists because the canal built to divert part of the Colorado River around there had a massive breach and flooded the dry lake bed. Farmers didn't care because they still had the canal and were not really affected. Now it is all super salty farm runoff. Lithium brine pools certainly aren't going to make things much worse considering the lake is pretty much a giant brine pool.

  • I'd prefer to mine where there is less life. Southwest AR has a decent amount of wildlife. The area around the Salton Sea would probably be better.

  • US startup charging couples to ‘screen embryos for IQ’

    Jump

  • So basically they are straight up scamming people since we do not have knowledge of genetic indicators correlated with a test that has changed over the years.

  • Elon Must is offering voters $100 to sign his pro-Trump petition

    Jump

  • I'm not the one who said doing what is in the article was illegal. I'm the one saying that it is not illegal. Sorry that I have not memorized the entirety of voting law. If you want a legal opinion, go search a fucking law blog. Law is generally not black and white which is why there are legal opinions on every law but if you want the one referenced, it is 52 U.S. Code § 10307 section C:

    (c) False information in registering or voting; penalties

    Whoever knowingly or willfully gives false information as to his name, address or period of residence in the voting district for the purpose of establishing his eligibility to register or vote, or conspires with another individual for the purpose of encouraging his false registration to vote or illegal voting, or pays or offers to pay or accepts payment either for registration to vote or for voting shall be fined not more than $10,000 or imprisoned not more than five years, or both: Provided, however, That this provision shall be applicable only to general, special, or primary elections held solely or in part for the purpose of selecting or electing any candidate for the office of President, Vice President, presidential elector, Member of the United States Senate, Member of the United States House of Representatives, Delegate from the District of Columbia, Guam, or the Virgin Islands, or Resident Commissioner of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.

    So very likely yes, if Musk was paying people to pledge to vote for Trump, it would be illegal and would be punished by up to five years in prison. Paying people to pledge support for free speech, the 2nd Amendment, and the Constitution would not be.

    Happy?

  • Elon Must is offering voters $100 to sign his pro-Trump petition

  • Not sure if it is explicitly illegal but there would absolutely be lawsuits with good reason. Imagine a district where 51% of the people sign a pledge to vote for a candidate but the candidate only gets 47% of the vote and losses the election. The candidate with the pledged voters would scream voter fraud and their backers would likely get violent. Considering we had that happen with almost zero voter fraud in 2020, it would not be an unlikely scenario.

  • Elon Must is offering voters $100 to sign his pro-Trump petition

    Jump

  • To all those wondering how this is legal: nowhere does it ask people to vote for Trump. The petition asks people to pledge their support for the Constitution, free speech, and the 2nd Amendment. Signing it does not indicate you are voting for Trump. But I could absolutely see the signatures being used for propaganda.

  • Elon Must is offering voters $100 to sign his pro-Trump petition

    Jump

  • The petition is saying you support free speech, the second amendment, and the Constitution. You can certainly support all of those and vote for Harris.

  • A large chunk of that came from their senator Rick Scott. He committed the largest Medicare fraud in history costing about $2 billion back in 2002.
