Who has jurisdiction, when a website crosses state and national borders by simply existing on the open internet, is a serious question worth answering.

Joni Ernst won't seek reelection to Senate in 2026, sources say Republican Sen. Joni Ernst of Iowa has told confidantes she plans to reveal next week that she won't seek reelection in 2026, multiple sources familiar with the matter told CBS News. Ernst's announcement is scheduled for Thursday, the sources said. Ernst, 55, has served in the U.S. Senate since 2015. Spokespeople for Ernst did not reply to requests for comment. Some Iowa Democrats have already jumped into the race, including state Sen. Zach Wahls, state Rep. Josh Turek, and Des Moines School Board chairwoman Jackie Norris. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/joni-ernst-wont-seek-reelection-to-senate-in-2026-sources-say/

The first thing that came to mind here is that European ethnonationalists speak about polish immigrants the same way American ethnonationalists speak about hispanic immigrants.

I kind of disliked the concept of hardcore competitive SSB since I learned wavedashing was a thing 20 years ago. It's a game about fighting 80s and 90s era cartoony video game mascots with cartoony slapstick chaos, the hyper competitive stuff just sucks the soul out of it for me.

i've had covid since friday night, sucks real hard man

yes, and let's also not forget that they plainly don't believe in white collar crime as a general rule (unless it's mortgage fraud)

that's not bucket, that's kaptkrunch

the thing about cashless bail is that it isn't really about the bail, it's about when *pre-trial* detention is appropriate in a society where defendants are innocent until proven guilty. there are certain crimes where the defendant is a clear danger, like murder etc. but the point of cash bail is to address like flight risks. if you put $X000 down you're less likely to skip out because you want your money back. but it effectively creates an off-the-books crime of being too poor to afford bail. two-tiered justice and all that. so this is just yet another example of maga dipshits not caring about "law and order" and really only caring about "order".

it's so painfully blatantly obvious in Russia, problematic people "fall out windows" - and in magaland, black Democrats in positions to check and balance "commit mortgage fraud"
