Or breaches even. Breeches are pants.
The disinformation campaign on Facebook targeting migrants has subsided for now, until somebody needs another immigration crisis.
Migrants are overwhelmingly dependent on Facebook for information, and the sources that they follow are riddled with disinformation. https://www.techtransparencyproject.org/articles/inside-world-misinformation-targeting-migrants-social-media
Don’t laugh.
In an election where the polls are statistically tied in the battleground states, a handful of voters could make a difference.
Trump: Loyalty for me, but not for thee.
That depends on how Canada implemented their plastic bag ban.
California’s ban allowed “reusable” bags, which the plastics industry interpreted to produce bags that looked a lot like the thin single use bags, but of thicker plastic, and consumer habits weren’t changed by much.
Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
Like @TheTechnician27@lemmy.world said, this is closing a loophole that was in the original grocery bag reduction law.
He sounds very Trump-like to me!
Made in his own image…
That was an easy mistake to make.
It’s well past time to militarily overthrow the evil repressive religious zealot regime in Alaska.

NRA: The only way to stop a bad golfer with a gun is a good golfer with a gun.
Trump: I’m waiting on the final word from the Russian FSB.
He should have incorporated himself. That way no Texas court would ever convict him of anything.
googles for “how to migrate to Sweden”
Weird. Her face looks quite ethnic to me.
Repressed self hatred much?
This was by design to kickstart the private industry for space development.
NASA could have just kept building and flying space shuttles, but since the retirement of the space shuttle program in 2011, they were renting payload space on Russian rockets to get stuff into orbit.
Getting off of dependence on Russian rockets turned out to be tremendous foresight.
They’re all pretty much the same people.
Yes, that’s pretty much it.
Sparsely populated states like the Dakotas have more votes than their population proportionally should have.
Take North Dakota vs California, for example:
North Dakota has 3 electoral votes, California has 54
North Dakota’s population is about 784K, and California 39 million, or about 50 times North Dakota’s population
If California had proportional electoral representation to ND’s based on their population, it would have 150 electoral votes to ND’s 3.
Also Southern/conservative states mostly take away the right to vote from felons for life, and therefore a large chunk of the African American vote is ineligible because of disproportionate policing of those communities. Among other problems with AAs’ access to their voting rights, like gerrymandering, fewer polling stations, etc.
“A slight edge” isn’t enough.
Harris needs at least a 4 point lead to overcome the built-in Republican advantage in the Electoral College (fuck the EC).
That depends on state and county law.
If a recall is possible, the same would dictate what the procedure for a recall is.
