What authoritarian regime wants more oversight and transparency?

None of those 3 are part of the same political party

Also, nobody was saying Bernie had dementia when he was running for president.

It's even worse when one side in it's entirety says "this person has dementia and is unfit to lead", then immediately chooses to vote for the person that's roughly the same age instead of somebody two decades younger.

When the progressive or leftist or liberal group says it, they mean it. When the right wing media says it, they are just repeating the normal propaganda news cycle.

This administration has repeatedly shown not to care about the status or criminal history of any non-US-born person. Also, they have revoked the status of legal migrants to be able to call them "illegal migrants" directly after, despite them doing everything correctly and being in America legally until the rug was pulled out from under them.

And aside from all of that, why are we okay with the government even thinking of doing this to anybody??? That should be a major red flag even as something they are considering. But based on their previous actions, it's definitely something they want to do, which is even worse

EDIT: Just realized your username is "freedom advocate". You of all people should be against this.

Software engineers at FAANG companies easily make that amount. And that's the caliber of engineer that is typically making this type of exit.

You're commenting as if your circumstances are the same as a tech bro founder's, which seems to be incorrect.

This is expected. Only one affects the gamers in the immediate short term. I'd be shocked if this wasn't the case

Yes, you're talking about a personal "payout" thats probably only 2-3 years of a salary? That's not much of a "payout" that's just a nicer severance package. If you built a company that wasn't about to go under, it's not worth handing it to some asshole for practically nothing

7 figures??? That's not selling out, that's just trying to get anything for a sinking ship if you sell for a million. Thats barely covering salary+expenses for 2-5 engineers depending on level and location.

Journalism has been replaced with news reporting

Ironically, straight out of the communist country playbook. Go to Lao even today, there is a midnight curfew because you shouldn't be out late, you should be up early to work!

How is approving trumps budget and candidates "fighting like hell"?

Tree shaking should fix this to a large degree though
