The Steele Dossier included Russian intelligence sources (so literal Russian Agents), at least that what it purports to be based on. It also included a lot rumors and unsupported allegations.

For serious crimes, because criminals would flee. For non-serious crimes we really shouldn't. But "cashless bail" has downsides. People are more likely to just skip hearings. Or they keep committing minor crimes because they

Same as it always was. My Trump supporting uncle on facebook was just a Pat Buchnnan supporting uncle at a bar.

Let's see Twitter's list of trusted newspapers. No way such a thing exists.

Instead of Guilianni, they could have just said "persons familiar with the contents of the emails."

Ok, but I've never seen the media ever publicly discuss document verification in a story. Stories about Trump's tax returns don't include any sort of explanation about verification. They wouldn't even publish the docume

The media commonly relies on second hand accounts of leaked documents ("persons familiar with the contents of [X] document"), including private documents. Something like this has never been censored before. It's not like they

I wouldn't bet that the GOP never gets back in power at the DOJ.

It's probably also amplifying the story.

HIV was much more deadly for certain groups (IV drug users and homosexual men) during the late 80's through early 90's than COVID is to the general public. 10% of self-identifying gay men in America born in the baby boomer generat

If you are aiming for elite (or semi-elite) schools you need sports or clubs to appear well rounded. 95% of students aren't really trying to get into those colleges. A lot of public colleges essentially create a formula (GPA and SAT&#

No easy way to charge per viewer, so they gotta price it once-sized-fits-all.

Or if you have 3.1 (or better) stereo set up, you could probably just turn the center channel higher relative to the rest to increase dialog (which is usually on the center channel).

Napster's assets were sold (eventually) to Rapsody, which operated a "Napster" service that was a lot like spotify.

Nobody blamed Boeing for not putting locks on their cockpit doors. The public actually doesn't generally place much blame on manufacturers of hardware for third party manipulation unless the point of the device is security. Nobody expe

See the North Hollywood Shootout for a good example of what happens if the cops are outgunned.

Are Telsas known to age well? I can't imagine long term build quality is lowly correlated with short term build quality. But the electric drive train is a major complicating factor.

These judge's don't have a real conflict of interest--as is traditionally understood. They don't make money from these suits--directly or indirectly.

The city really isn't severable from the burbs. Businesses based in the city create a lot money, but they are mostly staffed with people from the burbs.

This is way worse than 9/11 for the airlines. Probably an order of magnitude worse.

In the US, most of rules have been propagated by fiat, not lawmaking.

I've been a long time Roku user, who didn't like chromecast because I prefer a UI and a hardware remote. The advertising suggests it organizes all services into one screen. That is promising. But I am willing to bet it only cove

You can do that anywhere. Just don’t do it with a captive audience. And the people most inclined to discuss politics in the work place tend to be the people who take it personally.

Amtrak is clinging to an unprofitable business model (outside the Boston-DC route). 85% of adults in America have a car. The 15% (plus children) who don't can use Greyhound/Megabus buses, which are fine. Flights are generally more

The US does not have thousands of people vulnerable for war crimes. All of America’s foreign wars have been aided by allies that subject to the ICC. They used the same tactics. Where are all those indictments. NATO + Australia, Japan, and

They throw anyone who had any contact with someone who had covid in quarantine camps. Basically, the power of being an authoritarian government where people have no rights. Probably also a fair bit of luck. Those tactics don’t scale. So t
