I'm with you. For the record, I was not advising people to act unethically, just surprised he wasn't better at it.
He'll go after their loved ones to get at them. He's a moron, but not everyone in his sphere is. Plus, they have playbooks from other fascists to follow. They'll figure this tactic out.
He's smart, but not wise. When you don't know everything and don't know what you don't know, you act carefully. When it comes to the law, you should be extra careful and he should have had attorneys that advised him again putting this shit in writing.
Yes, it's called the present, and the Neanderthals have control of the White House.
My ears were burning.
I did criticize iPads, and now I own one and stream from it a huge portion of my watching experience.
I usually do mine solitarily.
The distinction they are making is that it wasn't nothing, it just wasn't nearly enough. Woefully so. However, some people tried, but the assholes were already installed to stall and block the attempts. There were legal processes being followed, but the right was not faithfully doing their jobs. This was because they were specifically installed in those positions to not do the right thing.
Why would you do that to those leeches? I speak, of course, of the annelids, not the terrible humans leeching off of us.
Honoring him! He's an icon.
Very good. Now, same or different: fire and ice?
That's true. This is more of a 'they had a position then for bad reasons and they have a position now for bad reasons, regardless of whether what is happening is good or not' situation.
When did she get a pass? She went to jail. Now, she may not receive the same treatment as everyone else, but she was convicted and she went to jail. That's hardly a pass and is way more than these assholes have experienced. What's more, she isn't doing it anymore (as far as I have heard).
If Trump knew he was going to do that and told people so that they could buy/sell in a manner that was financially advantageous, that is most certainly insider trading. It may not be what is the most common form or the most commonly prosecuted form, but it is trading based on information others do not have. Having it be protected information may add a layer when it comes to prosecution. I would offer that whether tariffs will be levied or paused is protected information, as well.
Edit: It's also market manipulation, but they used market manipulation to conduct insider trading.
Especially them. I don't feel safe around the police without a serial killer in my vicinity.
I look at that less as a plot point and more as a nod to video game design. I really liked that movie.
There was some amazing stuff in some of those hidden passages. It was well worth it in that game. Doom/Doom 2 had a lot of that, too.
