That's not entirely true.

An initial investigation can uncover enough evidence to charge, which already exists.

In discovery more evidence will come to light.

Discovery is why Trump never sues anyone that accuses him of rape.

This Is Your Brain On Uber This week we feature Keith Chen, a behavioral economist at UCLA and the head of economic research at Uber. Keith explains why surge pricing makes us nuts and discusses our weird economic choices.

(6/11) Uber tracks battery life. Former exec Keith Chen noted in 2016 that users with low battery are statistically more likely to accept surge pricing. Uber says it doesnโ€™t use that data to set prices, but the correlation remains a point of regulatory scrutiny. www.npr.org/transcripts/...

(5/11) Walmart, Whole Foods, and Kohls are switching to electronic shelf labels that can display dynamic prices. Kroger deployed them with Microsoft AIโ€”a setup a 2024 Senate inquiry warned could enable โ€œsurge pricingโ€ via facial recognition. (Kroger claims it will only lower prices.)

(1/11) If you live in NY, youโ€™ve probably started seeing a new warning: โ€œTHIS PRICE WAS SET BY AN ALGORITHM USING YOUR PERSONAL DATA.โ€ This mandatory disclosure went into effect late last year, and itโ€™s the first attempt by a US state to grapple with a new generation of surveillance pricing.

So the United States will only use empty warehouses to house people it wants to terrorize, not people it wants to shelter from the cold.

We really are not a very good-natured country.

All the more reason to go straight for the throat and use Article II, Section 4 of the Constitution. That way you bring down many criminals with a few rocks.

Brian Palacios โ€“ the ICE agent who murdered 43-year-old Black father Keith Porter on New Yearโ€™s Eve โ€“ was named last week. Palacios is a documented child abuser, homophobe, avowed racist, and lunatic who brandishes his firearm at childrenโ€™s soccer games. He seems to be subject to restraining orders, which should prevent him from owning a gun at all, let alone having one issued by the federal government.

This is false.

The reason it didn't receive more coverage is because there is not a video of the shooting.

I don't believe any of this narrative.

Law enforcement agencies completely lack credibility.

The agent knew fireworks would happen and used it as a cover to claim he "heard gunshots" so he could murder his neighbor he didn't like.

I bet in discovery we'll find some prior altercations.

And it's about them keeping their seats for another (4) years.

NO WAY!

If your state has a primary, make sure you vote then too. Vote out any Dem who votes with the Republican party.

They are the same guys who dismantled the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare). They sued 60 times to repeal it.

Police refuse to identify suspect in concentration camp fire out of fear that she will gain widespread public support.
