    Just found out that man of the people Ted Budd is a multimillionaire who partially owns the Budd Group here in town and I am so glad to vote against him on Friday. This guy is a swamp thing.

    This came up and it's something she used to do all the time in her own book but not in other things when Byrne was her writer before both Deadpool and Gwenpool.

    I worked for a franchise for 20 years. The job is easy and fairly simple. The pay is horrible. 19k drivers have sued corporate and franchise stores across the country. And the man himself was being sued for harrassing a woman from another company as well as employees in his building when he got fired the second time. 
     
    And I am not supposed to be talking about this.

    I want to say something, but the best I can do is I'm glad he got fired and I don't have to work for his creeping cheap monkey face any more

    Can we at least agree that all politicians ought to wear full-body suits with their (corporate) sponsor logos plainly displayed for everyone to see?

    I would like Escape from New York-esque mini explosives injected into every politician as soon as they take their oath of office set to detonate when they speak falsely.

    Pattern Ghost took mine. I would like real time tracking on any money a politician gets. Richard Burr is supposedly facing an investigation on 80k he made which could have been due to insider trading. And if they can prove it, I would like all of his assets stripped off.
     
    Also I would like to get rid of civil asset forfeiture except after the case has gone to court and the suspect has been convicted. I have seen too many stories of police just taking people's money and property on a claim and they can't get it back without going to court, and they can't get the whole sum or the property back most of the time. If you think someone is a doper, prove it. Otherwise, quit raiding people just because they have money they intend to use for things.
     
    I would also like to get rid of Qualified Immunity in most cases. It shields people in authority from having to pay for intentionally bad decisions. I would rather they have a day in court and if they lose, they should pay the price instead of I'm a senator/police/judge and I can do what I want

    I have to agree with Joe. There are two proposed places being fought by residents since one appears to be at the end of a development with no way to get to a main street except through the development and the other is supposed to be right at the entrance of another development behind a shopping mall.
     
    There was another development nixed by Clemmons. The spot was in the same area as others already there close to the shopping strip on Clemmons Rd/Stratford Rd

    You wouldn't have liked the 5g plan they were going to do which became the new legacies that no one likes.
     
    My issue as a reader was continuity. I just had to stop reading DC because they had ten history reboots that only rebooted part of their line and not the other. It's why their characters have new ethnic backgrounds, new sexual orientations, histories that make no sense, fan fiction type romances, new personalities that don't go with what went before, and Tom King writing alternative takes on heroes that are just bad.

     It's like picking up the latest book in a novel series and finding the main character is not a white 6'4" 250 pound ex-army major who has decided to wonder America and the world to pick up hot chicks when he can and punch bullies as a hobby, but has become a Nigerian millionaire solving problems on his family estate and flirting with the gardener while his mother harasses him.

    And older readers are more picky about what happens to their characters. They tend to drop books until something comes along to draw them back in.

    https://fixthecourt.com/2022/04/bicameral-bill-bring-real-accountability-third-branch-introduced/
     
    Though work on the 21st Century Courts Act of 2022 began at the start of the 117th Congress more than a year ago, and though several sections mirror the 21st Century Courts Act of 2020, this legislation is expanded and takes on new urgency in the wake of revelations last month that Justice Thomas’ wife Ginni sought to overturn the election results while Thomas was ruling on several 2020-related cases.
    Legal scholars and FTC believe Thomas should have recused from these cases and a recent Jan. 6 Committee case since, among other reasons, Ginni had a stake in the outcome and since text messages she wrote to Mark Meadows imply she may have discussed her efforts with her husband.
    Among the bill’s more impactful proposals, it would:
    — Require the justices to finally write and abide by an official code of conduct;
    — Require a brief explanation whenever a judge or justice recuses from a case or petition;
    — Create a process in the lower courts by which a party may submit a motion for recusal that would be reviewed by judges from other courts;
    — Create a process at the Supreme Court by which a party may submit a motion for recusal that would be reviewed by all nine justices; and
    — Expand the federal recusal law to require disqualification when a judge or justice has received within the previous six years income, travel reimbursement or a gift from a party or their counsel.
