Sure, make sexual assault harder to report and investigate.
Whatever could happen?

You may think SA is woke and not care about it, but it will
absolutely grind an entire institution into dust.

Whatever progress was made, it's gone. This is unforgivable.

This. Says who?

Journalism isn't about just writing and sources. It's about judgment and news sense. And that takes years to hone. Which is why the best of the best start at local papers and work up. Find me a wunderkid that's handed a national beat and I will show you a scandal.

I promise that if you stop doing shit in the dark of night like, dunno, removing Jackie Robinson's legacy or restoring Swastika legitimacy, you won't have do 180s all the time while looking like a clownshoes dipshit organization rather than a trusted profession.

But what do I know.

Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.

Life in CJSOTF-A

I say this often to people: China, other than an 80 year old local fridge with Taiwan has expressed zero expansionist desires.

The smart money was always in managing their rapid growth in a way that benefited all. Now it's going to be them managing our decline.

This is begins the rapid irrelevance of the OPEC Middle East.

And, if we continue to hang our hat on fossil fuels, ours as well.

That's because airlines have cut and cut and cut services and comfort to cram as many people as possible into cattle cars. What used to be exciting is now a miserable necessary evil to reach a destination.

Deregulate misery and, yeah, we can then all skip the yoga clothes.

The best time to get rid of him was when he did the Nazi salute.
The second best time was when he butchered federal agencies that led to the death of hundreds of thousands.
The third best time was yesterday.

Acshually the swastika should not be removed--EVER--from any list marking it has a symbol of hate and crimes against humanity.

Put another way,
Addressing BOTH road and firearms safety, could save over 60,000* American lives per year.

(Roughly over 30,000 firearms deaths per year inclusive of murder and suicide).

We tried this a while back. With France. Because even back then we knew Europeans will NEVER accept German militaryleadership.
