Food for thought: Neurosurgeon - One of the most difficult jobs in the world. The best of the best earn $1 to $4 million annually. Corporate CEO - Moderately difficult job. Top earners get over $100 million annually. Are CEOs overpaid, or are neurosurgeons underpaid?

Someone needs to start a Christians Against Fascism movement. Christians need to call out the hypocrisy of fundamentalists who preach hate disguised as the word of God. If you look the other way because “we’re not that different in our beliefs”, you are complicit in their crimes against humanity.

I’m still using TikTok for the moment, although I do believe the app has been compromised to some extent. However, today I will start blocking anyone who has an Instagram link in their bio. #BlockMeta

Nazis break the social contract of tolerance by being Nazis. There is no reason to tolerate them, or their speech.

I’d really like to add emphasis to the tagline in the Washington Post story, “Historic Verdict in Scheme to Illegally Influence 2016 Election”. I’ve talked to people who aren’t that concerned about the hush money conviction. However, election tampering is a very serious offense by any measure.

Communism: Government ownership of the means of production. I thought Communism was the Boogeyman for the conservatives.

I had no idea how bad the housing affordability crisis is in Hawaii until I saw this info. I live on the East Coast of the USA, so I’m quite far from Hawaii, so I don’t hear much about that state by word-of-mouth, and you can’t count on mainstream media to tell this story. Info from reventure app.

The NY Attorney General has REJECTED Trump's bid to dismiss his $500M civil fraud judgment post-election. The AG stated that Trump's presidency doesn't shield him from civil litigation over non-official conduct, per the Constitution and multiple court precedents.
Dear Mr. Sauer:
I am writing in response to your letter dated November 26, 2024, regarding the above-referenced action. This Office will not stipulate to vacate the final judgment already entered by Supreme Court, New York County, in this action or otherwise seek to dismiss the action.
As you know, this is a civil enforcement action under Executive Law § 63(12) against the Trump Organization, a business headquartered in New York, and its top executives concerning those defendants' fraudulent and unlawful actions to misleadingly inflate defendant Donald J. Trump's personal net worth in business transactions for the purpose of obtaining more favorable terms on loans and insurance policies than they otherwise would have received. This civil enforcement action was filed following a multiyear investigation by the Office, and multiple courts have rejected claims that the investigation or action were brought in anything other than good faith. See People v. Trump Org., Inc., 205 A.D.3d 625,
626-27 (1st Dep't 2022); Trump v. James, No. 1:21-1352, 2022 WL 1718951, at *12-14 (N.D.N.Y. May 27, 2022). Following summary judgment and an eleven-week bench trial, Supreme Court concluded that Mr. Trump and the other entity and individual defendants violated § 63(12). The court also entered final judgment ordering various forms of equitable relief. Defendants appealed from Supreme Court's post-trial final judgment. That appeal has been fully briefed and argued in the Appellate Division, First Department, and the parties are now awaiting a decision from the First Department.
Your letter presents no basis for this Office to seek to vacate the final judgment or to dismiss this action.
First, Mr. Trump's upcoming inauguration as the next President of the United States has no bearing on the pendency of defendants' appeal in this action. This civil enforcementaction is not a criminal action, and Supreme Court did not impose any criminal sanction on Mr. Trump or any other defendant. Accordingly, the various actions taken by the Special Counsel's office or the District Attorney's Office of New York County in the respective criminal cases brought by those offices against Mr. Trump are irrelevant here.
Contrary to your suggestion, the pendency of defendants' appeal during Mr. Trump's term as President fully comports with the U.S. Constitution. The final judgment concerns only business conduct undertaken by entities that are part of the Trump Organization and individual defendants who were acting on behalf of the Trump Organization. The judgment thus does not concern any conduct related to Mr. Trump's first term as President. Nor does it implicate any conduct that Mr. Trump might undertake after his upcoming inauguration.
Presidents do not have immunity from civil lawsuits arising from unofficial conduct, and such lawsuits may proceed while the President is in office. See Clinton v. Jones, 520 U.S. 681, 694
(1997); Zervos v. Trump, 171 A.D.3d 110, 128 (1st Dep't 2019); see also Trump v. United States, 603 U.S. 593, 615-16 (2024). Regardless, Mr. Trump's upcoming inauguration is irrelevant to the judgment rendered against the fourteen other defendants found liable by Supreme Court in this action.
There is also no merit to your claim that the pendency of defendants' own appeal will impede Mr. Trump's official duties as President. The ordinary burdens of civil litigation do not impede the President's official duties in a way that violates the U.S. Constitution. See Clinton,
520 U.S. at 705-06; Zervos, 171 A.D.3d at 125-26. In any event, Mr. Trump does not face any such litigation burdens here. The trial is over, final judgment has been rendered, and defendants' appeal to the First Department has been fully submitted and argued. Mr. Trump's official duties will not be impeded while awaiting the First Department's decision. Nor wi…

Does anyone know of a left-wing genealogy society? I can trace my ancestry to the American Revolution. I’d like to meet other people whose families fought to defend our country from the Tyranny of a King. I want to get together with others to remind people about real American values.

The folks who say they want “small government” actually want the government in everybody’s business… Small government means no regulation for businesses — it doesn’t apply to anyone or anything else.

I’ve realized that capitalism is very similar to fire. It is not inherently bad. Fire can do many helpful things like allowing us to cook or forge steel. But, without safeguards, fire will destroy everything in its path. Completely unregulated free-market capitalism is economic anarchy.

If you’re having a debate inside the Democratic Party about the role of pressure groups & special interests in determining your agenda, & making you take unpopular positions that cost you swing states, & you’re not mentioning AIPAC then you’re not actually having a real debate.
