…the light from Perkins’ gun pointing upwards against his house, away from Marquette. Prosecutors said that indicated that Perkins tried to raise his arms in surrender before he was killed.
…while still holding the gun? That’s not usually how surrending works
If you don’t want to be a cop, you have to go to a poor and/or black neighborhood in Chicago. No telling if they’ll catch you for it but they’ll definitely at least investigate it if it’s in a white area
A Harbor Freight solar panel produces 500 watts per day.
A coal plant makes 50 megawatts per day.
Therefore, fossil fuels are better. Checkmate, green energy!
Don’t undersell it as “over 300k” when it’s a whopping 482k!
Tell me how telling people their taxes are going to go up $3000 is better than explaining that the tariffs will cause their yearly goods expenses to go up by the same.
This article is for the layman, not someone who understands tariffs. And instead of explaining that, it says “it’s basically the same thing as your taxes going up!”
I’m saying people are going to look for this tax increase they heard about and not find it on their paycheck.
Feel free to tell me the downside of being accurate here.
No average person says “my taxes went up $3000 this year!” referring to anything other than their income tax.
This is the exact water muddying I mentioned. Call things what they are and explain what they mean.
There is zero downside to explaining it correctly:
“Trump’s newest round of tariffs are projected to cost the average citizen $3000 per year”
Same power without the bullshitting. And you don’t have someone looking at their paycheck wondering if it’s taken effect yet.
Calling it a “tax increase” when it’s not is kind of infuriating because it just muddies the conversation. Comparing it to a tax increase is fine but saying it’s “effectively” one is worse than useless - it either confuses people, gives them the wrong idea, or gives them an easy out to say it’s bullshit.
I hate when my side does stuff like this.
It’s so crazy that even the mods are saying it now. What’s next, the admins??
We’re just talking about people who are talking about killing Rick Scott.
Republicans would be out for political blood calling the left “deep state” and other horrifying shit
And they’d be right. An unelected billionaire gutting the government and hiding their actions is deep state activity
It’s a good thing you don’t get to choose
The one dude looks like someone generated an AI image with the prompt “hyper realistic clay sculpture of a fucked up cartoon bully” and didn’t bother to fix the eyes
I just can’t believe she refused to set up a courtroom in her living room. SMH some prosecutor
What’s she gonna do, demand court time?
I’m not sure how to interpret your first comment other than “she looks trans!”
I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt because I’ll admit I’ve thought people “looked trans” before BUT masculine features don’t make someone trans so calling out her physical appearance just makes you seem like a dick.
