White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told NBC in a statement that if federal workers “don’t want to work in the office and contribute to making America great again, then they are free to choose a different line of work, and the Trump Administration will provide a very generous payout of 8 months.”
To accept the buyout, federal employees simply have to reply to the email with the word “Resign,” the emails reportedly instruct.
Basically- he has done it, but we're not sure if he's allowed to.
Trump issued an executive order directing the relevant party (the Board on Geographic Names, part of the Department of the Interior) to change the name back to Mt McKinley. Controlling the names of geographic landmarks is a power that Congress delegated to the BoGN, so that they didn't have to hold a vote on every single item. The Unitary Executive theory posits that, since the president is the head of the executive branch, any power delegated to any part of the executive branch is ultimately under the control of the president.
If Congress cared more about their own institutional power instead of partisan power, they would rebuke the attempt and clarify that, no, they set up a process and deviations from that process will not be tolerated.
My take on the likely outcome - people will sue (not sure if lawsuits have been filed yet or not), it'll work its way up through the courts, the judicial branch will rule that disagreements between political branches is outside the purview of the courts (basically saying that if Congress doesn't like what's happening, they have the power to change the laws, so it's up to them), and, since Congress is controlled by R's, the name change will stand.
I tend to agree. Admittedly without having thought too deeply about how it would work, I kinda think there needs to be 2 internets: one that is anonymous and one that isn't. The anonymous one is vital for people to be able to freely dissent from and protest their government, etc. The non-anonymous one would be, as you said, something that can assess responsibility back to specific people. Idk. I'm just spit balling. Fascism, through unchecked capitalism, is killing the Internet. 🫤
I'm partial to the idea that they're terrified of hitting on a trans woman. In their mind, there is a fear of being perceived as attracted to someone outside their rigid definition of femininity, which challenges their fragile masculinity and internalized homophobia.
Jan. 6 was nowhere near Ball’s first brush with law enforcement. Three previous felony convictions — including for domestic-violence battery by strangulation, resisting law enforcement with violence, and battery against a law-enforcement officer — are listed in the charging documents.
Piece of shit was already a piece of shit before J6.
Definitely looks NSFW/NSFL, but the dude actually only had minor injuries. Scroll down the thread a bit and people posted links to English news articles about it.
Agreed. Make the phones ⅛ in - ¼ (3.18mm - 6.35mm) thicker and use all the extra space for a bigger battery! Virtually everyone throws a case on their phone anyways, so it's not going to be a very noticeable size difference anyways.
Don't get me wrong, I love the game. But especially in the beginning before you start getting some upgrades, everything is sooooo far away and there's so much emptiness.
This is my biggest complaint about No Man's Sky. There are literally over a billion billion worlds, but they're all mostly empty, not to mention all the space in between.
