Hi, I'm Joe Perez and I didn't catch the part where USPS doesn't deliver filled in ballots to ballot boxes, and I completely missed the fact that the driver had intercepted mail in ballots he was supposed to deliver, filled them out for himself, and dumped them batches, and was caught on camera over four times, committing multiple felonies.
81 million. most secure.

like this ruling?

just a random quote I found on the internet that I thought was cool:
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog..._minority.html
As set forth in this court’s precedent, the seizure inquiry is an objective test in which the allegedly seized person has the burden to show that a seizure occurred. To aid courts in the application of this test, we now clarify that a person is seized for purposes of article I, section 7 if, based on the totality of the circumstances, an objective observer could conclude that the person was not free to leave, to refuse a request, or to otherwise terminate the encounter due to law enforcement’s display of authority or use of physical force. For purposes of this analysis, an objective observer is aware that implicit, institutional, and unconscious biases, in addition to purposeful discrimination, have resulted in disproportionate police contacts, investigative seizures, and uses of force against Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color (BIPOC) in Washington.
Today, we formally recognize what has always been true: in interactions with law enforcement, race and ethnicity matter. Therefore, courts must consider the race and ethnicity of the allegedly seized person as part of the totality of the circumstances when deciding whether there was a seizure for purposes of article I, section 7. Here, in light of all the circumstances of Sum’s encounter with Deputy Rickerson, we hold that Sum was unlawfully seized before he provided a false name and birth date to the deputy, so his false statement must be suppressed.

No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Seems like that 4th Amendment might have something to say about potential red flag laws that Washington is talking about, post Uvalde.
So Kavanaugh had an alleged assassin visit his house, and Barrett had her kid's school and her church targeted by protestors, although protesting Judges is "technically" illegal. Pesky thing, those laws...which to follow and which to turn a blind eye. I'm wondering if we'll hear anything...anything at all from the collegial justices on the Left regarding these issues. Certainly a SCOTUS member should have the capacity to see both sides of an issue, and in this case the issue is whether they will be protected should the shoe end up on the other foot.

My daily commute is 1.6 miles in each direction. Takes about 15 minutes, give or take traffic. If I'm lucky, the engine gets near operating temp. Which... sucks, because I have to do the emissions test within the next 30 days. And I disconnected the battery a few months ago to insert the trickle-charge cable, so the readiness monitor codes aren't set, and the OBD-II specs don't account for people who drive 3 miles per day.
So I'm gonna have to go and burn a bunch of gasoline on the highway in order to prove that my car doesn't emit too much bad stuff
I wouldn't be driving it right now were it not for the fact that my L5 - S1 vertebrate junction weren't decided committed to holding me in a position of "You don't need to be in a wheelchair... just yet... but your sorry *** better not turn too sharply to either side while you're sitting in a chair or wiping your own anus on the toilet, or else we will pwn your ***" mode.
