Lol @ including Booker and not Bernie.

 

Matt Gaetz is definitely like the guy that everyone picks on and mocks because nobody in the House likes him, right?

 

Isn't that the greater than sign? So he wants to know who will bring in the over 40 vote? Lol

 

I wonder if this kind of graphic/result is used intentionally to scare Fox News republican voters, to encourage more of them to get more involved and to vote

 

for real. Look at any poll (that I’ve seen at least). Booker isn’t moving the needle of millennials at all.

 

That's one heck of a ratio

 

YES! For a while my step-dad changed his facebook profile pic to a picture of my baby daughter - not him holding her, just her. It was the weirdest thing and I had to ask my mum to get him to change it.

 

Pelosi is a decent peacetime consigliere but not so much wartime.

 

i’m good at my job half the time but mainly only the half that doesn’t matter, it’s great & extremely cool

 

Amazon Requires Police to Shill Surveillance Cameras in Secret Agreement

Amazon’s home security company Ring has enlisted local police departments around the country to advertise its surveillance cameras in exchange for free Ring products and a “portal” that allows police to request footage from these cameras, a secret agreement obtained by Motherboard shows.

Tech firms “can and must” put backdoors in encryption, AG Barr says

US Attorney General William Barr today launched a new front in the feds’ ongoing fight against consumer encryption, railing against the common security practice and lamenting the “victims” in its wake.

“The deployment of warrant-proof encryption is already imposing huge costs on society,” Barr claimed in remarks at a cybersecurity conference held at Fordham University Tuesday morning. Barr added that encryption “seriously degrades” law enforcement’s ability to “detect and prevent a crime before it occurs,” as well as making eventual investigation and prosecution of crime more difficult.

[…]

He also accused tech firms of “dogmatic” posturing, saying lawful backdoor access “can be and must be” done, adding, “We are confident that there are technical solutions that will allow lawful access to encrypted data and communications by law enforcement, without materially weakening the security provided by encryption.”

This is a big deal and fucking bullshit.

 

We Know Who Put That Fake Presidential Seal Behind Trump. And He Got Fired.

 

im so sorry

 

Could this administration be any more ghoulish? Jeeez

 

The American people said “gimme something spooky”

 

Call your fucking reps!
Edit-it was totally my call that did it. You’re welcome.

 

Just saw a tweet on this earlier about local PDs starting "patio patrols." Who the hell is signing up for that shit

 

Residents can register their external home security systems in a database which is only accessible to police. The program is free.

If a crime occurs in the resident’s area, police will ask if they can review any video that might help with the investigation.
