Ukraine is in a war for survival. They just let prisoners out to fight. I doubt they’re going to go after a foreign volunteer battalion lead by fighters from one of their major suppliers of arms.

His responsibilities have evolved over the years, but Dr. O’Connor says the most important part of each day is saying, “Good morning, Mr. President.”
Because Dr. O’Connor and his team are some of the first people President Biden will see each day, Dr. O’Connor stresses the importance of greeting the President affirmatively and making themselves available. This simple engagement can help to set the mood for the rest of the day.
Osteopathic medicine isn’t quite quackery, they’re actual doctors, but it’s very questionable.
The call to remove the presumptive candidate is an entirely different thing than saying “and put our chosen person in instead”. If he said a specific person you’d criticize him for trying to decide for the whole party.
The replacement should be chosen after consideration by a much broader group, either behind closed doors by party leadership if it’s Harris, or by the delegates if it’s not (or they simply don’t think directly installing her is the best move).
That he’s not even trying to throw anyone under the bus in the campaign to shake things up is almost just as concerning as him refusing to accept the obvious. The only message we have is “everything’s fine, stay the course” and that Biden will adopt an old man schedule, neither of which is reassuring.
The layers of protection provided in the Supreme Court ruling makes it very easy to justify either immunity or simply excluding all evidence of a non-official crime. It’s much broader than just “official vs. non-official”. The LegalEagle YouTube channel has a good run through of all the ways in which immunity or effective immunity could be achieved and it’s bad. “Top 5 worst Supreme Court rulings ever.”
That a literal case of stealing state secrets and refusing to return them could possibly be shielded by this ruling demonstrates just how insane it is.
What kind of nonsense question is that? These candidates both don’t have near majority support (polls of head to heads are not measuring that) and there’s no reason to have a different system if two hypothetical candidates actually did. Most people did not want this rematch in the first place.
If you have a situation where say there appeared to be two likely dominant candidates, but one crashes and burns spectacularly, other voting systems wouldn’t cause a default decision for their single opponent. And the people who thought Joe Biden was too old from the very beginning could already be supporting their replacement. Hell, we could just have all these potential replacements already competing and work it out in voting.
Ranked choice’s end results are not the issue. It solves the problem because it allows multiple similar candidates to compete, which means the left wouldn’t have needed to winnow down to a single candidate. If Biden becomes incapable that’s fine, people have another candidate already available who wasn’t spoiling him by existing. And if we don’t all agree that Biden is incapable? Biden-stans can vote him first and the other candidate second, and vice versa, and one of them will garner the full vote of the left.
Criticizing Disney’s pay and worker rights is literally Abigail Disney’s claim to fame.
Parliamentary systems. Ranked choice or approval voting. These two candidates don’t actually hold majority support, they’re just the end result of filtering and internal politics in a FPTP system that needs to have two parties.
You know there are other forms of democracy right? This isn’t the only way to select an executive, and many of those systems aren’t about choosing the least bad option.
We’re past the point of registrations across multiple states
LOL, no we’re not. Biden hasn’t even been nominated yet. The earliest deadline is Ohio, which is requiring the Democratic party to do a special virtual vote to get on, but that’s still in the future.
Your link is a list of filing deadlines for the primary.
So maybe after being wrong and accusing everyone else of being foreign agents, check your own information sources that are trying to convince you of this.
She doesn’t have any role in running the parks. I don’t think anyone in the Disney family does anymore. They’re just a megacorp. Abigail Disney criticizes the Disney Corp all the time. Mostly about worker conditions, pay, and obscene CEO pay rather than ticket prices.
Joe Biden will lose. There is no more disastrous option. “Who knows what will happen” is at least in the grouping of “maybe they won’t lose”.

All the best Russian influence agents join servers that are in close proximity to their office. I moved from lemmy.world to sopuli after .world’s performance was unreliable because they seemed to have a reasonable block list and were in the goldilocks zone of neither too big nor too small. And my mastodon account is hosted on an EU server because I don’t think the US has good data privacy rules. Turns out internet services still work when it’s overnight in their home time zone.
If we’re going to be ruled by Old Ones, they might as well be Great.
Biden will pull more moderates and centrists, the key group in this election
Says fucking who?
I don’t know why he wouldn’t simply ignore this ruling. This is one of those situations where the executive has all the power and a judge is telling them to do something. Just don’t.
Letting convicts join under very strict rules is literally letting prisoners out to fight.
And sure, they could negotiate with America on penalties. Or they could turn a blind eye because they’re in a war for survival and these are volunteer units of foreigners. It would be nice if war crimes enforcement was a top priority in every war, but the United States doesn’t do it when we have the universal upper hand and can easily loose a few fighters without it having any impact on our success or sovereignty.
