Or using a case where a government employee refused to follow rules she disagreed with is not the precedent they want to set while banning gay marriage nationwide.

the court declines the vast majority of appeals. The executive branch wasn’t behind this appeal. It means a lot less than you or many in this thread think.

how dare you now I’m not going to all tell you about my products that you don’t want to hear about at all.

Not just in California. Every state has elections now. Make sure to vote. Non-federal election years have significantly lower turnout than most. It doesn’t take many votes to swing a municipal election. Get out there.

It wasn’t just the white house. Also congress is the one that makes the budget, and the laws that causes a delay in budget negotiations to stop payments.

In a sensible country, the government would continue to spend at the levels of the previous budget in the event of a delay in negotiating the renewed budget. It makes no sense. There are no benefits. Please do what you did in 1814 again we need it.

If your income does not have withholdings you are required to make payments quarterly. If you owe above a certain amount when filing your tax returns you have to pay a penalty.

You can write exempt on the withholding form to stop your employer from withholding, but the forms are very clear that it is only to be done if you owe no tax. Unless you earn less than $16k or whatever the standard deduction is for you, it would be unwise to not make advanced tax payments.

You can file your forms differently to avoid paying the feds, or delaying those payments, but you do so at personal risk.

Because the purpose of a CEO is wealth transfer. Controlling the company is purely incidental.

Elections are run locally. You can get involved.

voter suppression. non proportional representation.

the pitifully low voter turnout is a systemic issue.

Doesn’t matter what you’re asking for. Anything can be vetoed.

The UN was formed after WWII and it was a scheme by the allies to cement their power going forward. All permanent security council members with veto power were the winning side of WWII.

The UN basically has no powers against the wishes of any member with a veto.

US has veto power. There is no possible way for the UN to do anything.

The UN is flawed by design.

They let him host the Olympics, so yeah probably.

Also the US has veto power at the UN. So nothing can be done unless the US approves. Since the US enthusiastically supports genocide, nothing can be done.

I’m more impressed by the number of unions.

resign

Americans are so lazy they omit 75% of their country’s name.

This article gives no information about the status of this bill, or even the number for the bill so you can look it up yourself.

Covering bills like this at the point of introduction is pure fearmongering. Anyone in the legislature can introduce a bill. Most bills go nowhere. Unless it leaves committee or gets co-sponsors, it’s not really being considered at all.

If something happens with this make sure to pay attention. But covering this at this point is just trying to make you afraid to get a click.

agreed, but at this stage expecting more than a statement is unreasonable. no organization could be in full go mode this early.

their actions to come will be telling.

so far the news is only that the executive branch is pursuing this, and this news is only a few days old. This is their first response to the matter.

No organization can move quickly enough to already be doing the things you suggest at this point. This is the make a statement of intent phase, which they have done.

Give it time, nothing happens immediately.
