Aren't there sound reasons to support anonymous whistleblowing?
Would there be critical feedback without pseudo-anonymity on the internet?
But you folks just have to dom all the haters.
What is their favorite thing: stuffed animal brand, candy, musical artist?
But then wouldn't undercover ops be obvious?
Is this similar to the "ban all crypto" movements that periodically forget everything we've learned about infosec and protecting folks?
Do protectees' deserve privacy for their safety?
In the 1990s, they told us kids not to use our real names or addresses on the internet.

> According to [...], Rove’s grandfather was Karl Heinz Roverer, the Gauleiter of Oldenburg. Roverer was Reich-Statthalter—Nazi State Party Chairman—for his region. He was also a partner and senior engineer in the Roverer Sud-Deutche Ingenieurburo A. G. engineering firm, which built the Birkenau death camp, at which tens of thousands of [...]
Oh, also Rove and Kenneth Lay of the Enron deregulatory debacle that put California hospitals in rolling blackouts in the dark.

They forced the US into trillions of dollars of debt by cutting taxes and starting wars.
They have not paid the bills for the wars that they started and debt-financed.

LIV Golf

> LIV has paid millions to golf resorts owned by Donald Trump, who has publicly supported the new league which is attempting to compete with the PGA.
Trump takes direct payments from SA for Liv golf.
"Analysis: The real reason Donald Trump is on board with LIV Golf" https://www.cnn.com/2022/07/19/politics/donald-trump-liv-gol... quoting a presidential masto-toot:
> "All of those golfers that remain ‘loyal’ to the very disloyal PGA, in all of its different forms, will pay a big price when the inevitable MERGER with LIV comes, and you get nothing but a big ‘thank you’ from PGA officials who are making Millions of Dollars a year,” Trump wrote. “If you don’t take the money now, you will get nothing after the merger takes place, and only say how smart the original signees were.”

When you cut revenue and increase expenses and the real problem here is disease in the world
How does that affect the job growth statistic?
Bond yield curve inversion prior to COVID and probably due to what they had done economically by then
Mr Trump's relationship with Mr Epstein apparently extended far beyond when Mr Trump told the American people he cut it off with ~Ballstein~ (Zoolander) Epstein.
Do some public and civil servants still see this as more than a cucking humiliation s show?
IMHO that immature need specifically would be distracting and saboteurially counterproductive in an acting or actual.
Here we're looking for a change in the slope of that job creation line
You've just helped explain that job creation was necessary due to the disaster performance of his predecessors.
This seems to confirm that Joe Biden created the most jobs of any president in recent modern history.
Can't prove quid pro quo bribery with crypto transactions? Can anyone convict bribery? Even at the standard of prosecution by Congress?
TIL about Epstein and Ken Starr
They cut taxes and debt-financed war, which forced the US further into debt.
(Elon Musk was the only contributor to a PAC that claimed to represent a deceased Supreme Court Justice.)

(They're perfectly free to choose a different vendor on this their need for chat productivity and video.)
Fascist isn't fair. I shouldn't have said that. Fascism is when the government controls but does not actually own any or enough shares to control the means of production.
What a shame though. Should US exclude foreign firms (France,) from consideration for contracts for the same reason?
No doubt the tariff master has made this all better with cruel tit-for-tat leverage that caused loss for these US firms.
(EU just canceled aspects of GDPR etc, so it's not new privacy law?)
(Edit: Kushner is currently ambassador to France. Why wouldn't they trust US-based communication firms over there all of a sudden?)
Does it matter whether a competitor in such a country is copying their business while they are denied the option to compete?
Then you'll need to pay for a VPN.
Can Humans that breathe CO2 breathe on Earth?
Humans with tardigrade DNA for radiation resistance risk their offspring losing said advantage if they cross with a person who is not so hardened.
Without artificial gravity and fortification, humans' musculoskeletal structures will not develop sufficiently in lower gravity to survive on Earth. If a person is born on Mars, what do they need to do to physically return to Earth?
Orbital debris cannot be recovered without permission.
Wireless power beaming burns the atmosphere. If it is n % efficient, then where is the other 100-n % of that energy?
What is the minimum latency to each of the LaGrange points?
We should send humanoid robots to establish human-sized habitats with airlocks for a number of years before risking humans.
