They basically want border towns to become civilian ran security checkpoints by the sounds of it.
You stop for gas in Bumfuck, TX and the clerk gets to pressure you about what you're leaving the state for. If they think you're "one of those types", this ordinance gives them the authority to make your life a living hell. Doesn't even matter if you're actually getting an abortion, just that they "think" that you are.
Definitely don't ever underestimate how quickly lack of sleep can mess you up mentally and physically.
Inflicting sleep deprivation on a person is widely recognized as a form of torture by human rights organizations as well as the UN.
Elvis jumpscare house!
Curious if you are a JelloApocalypse enjoyer or found this elsewhere.
This is from the first house they toured through on their second Bad Zillow Houses stream.. The whole house is pretty nutty
You mean the fact that the biggest initial source of support the Nazis got was from the emerging business class who were scared of the rising influence of labor unions? Can't imagine why that gets pushed under the bed.
Not like we had that nearly happen here in the US or anything though. Just don't look into the Business Plot or that many of the Jan 6thers turned out to be small business tyrants...
Just remember that the most dangerous Nazis aren't the skinheads on the corner but the ones on Wall Street.
90% of his advice is pretty much just boilerplate self help stuff you can find in thousands of books on Amazon. That stuff gets you in the door and is meant to develop a sense of trust because you might see initial improvement and feel good from the advice.
It's when he does the rug pull and starts introducing trad nonsense into it that determines how willing a person is to keep following through on listening to him.
Like you mentioned, this is an extremely common tactic used by religious leaders as well as cults. Back in the mid 20th century when the whole self help craze started, many cults took to framing themselves as self help groups to attract outsiders. NXIVM is probably the most infamous example of this. The first few meetings should seem like a normal support group but would soon start ramping up into full on cult mode.
Looks like it was cropped from this New Republic article from last June.
In short, the article says the Republican Study Committee's proposed 2024 federal budget calls for removing the Community Eligibility Provision from the National School Lunch Program which provides funding to low income schools to have free meals for students
In my opinion the biggest problem w the police isn’t the officers it’s the training and culture.
That's sorta the point that people generally have issues with cops dude. It's the overall culture of shielding of each other from consequences, stoking a "everyone is your enemy"/warrior mentality among officers, bad or lack of training leading to unneeded violent escalation etc.
It's been police departments dragging their heels and throwing tantrums on addressing these issues that have what caused people's dislike of them to grow.
"Try to do that at an airport and you'll get arrested."
She knows plane spotting at big airports is a pretty common thing too right? Hell, some airports even have a place where it's specifically encouraged. Reagan Intl has a park that was built at the end of the runway for plane spotters.
"I'm the media"
You'd think she'd be better at researching basic stuff that takes a 5 second google search to know it's perfectly fine to do
That was basically how the Nazis started out. A bunch of businesses owners were worried about the rise of leftist politics in Germany so they saw the Nazis as a way of pulling populist support away from the left. Also the Nazi SA was used to break up unions and left wing party meetings to further disrupt leftist influence.
They wanted to push the message "We are the good capitalists, it's those other bad capitalists that are the issue."
Kenneth Copeland is straight up one of the creepiest persons alive. He has that look and mannerisms like he's actively deciding what part of your body best matches his evening cabernet he has as he waits for his skin suit to be dry cleaned.
Kinda seems to be based on those weird scam letters you'd get. You'd get some random trinket that's a "holy relic" but conveniently it only works if you mail back some money to show your "devotion".
13th Amendment "except as a punishment for crime" goes brrrr
