I'm sure the people pushing this will be overjoyed to see public funding going to madrassas.

The first amendment would like a word.

It's a good thing there's no chance that it could be hacked.

You get a MANPAD, and you get a MANPAD, EVERYONE gets a MANPAD!

The questions are:

1. How much power is required to do it?

2. Where is that power coming from?

If the answer to the second question is fossil fuels, I'd wager the cycle is at a net gain in in CO2.

Reads like it went through several different language translations before hitting english.

Going back to the 79th Congress in 1945, Democrats have controlled the Senate 24 times, Republicans 14. Republicans have held it for the last 3, Democrats for the three before that.

They used to teach civics in the 8th grade. The system was set up for the House to provide proportional representation, the Senate to provide State representation. The basis for this article seems to be a complaint that the Senate isn't providing proportional representation. It's not supposed to.

It's working exactly as designed. Matthew Yglesias should have taken a civics class.

$10-$20 Package

~$8 per TV "Equipment rental fee"

~$10-$15 DVR "service fee"

? Tax, and whatever "mandatory fees?

Remaining a cord cutter: Priceless

He has a "plan".

As a sitting senator, maybe he could introduce "legislation" to implement his "plan". If it passed, it would be his 8th such since 1991.

Any member of Congress that talks about having a plan without at least introducing a bill for t hat plan is lying to you and hoping you are dumb enough to believe they mean what they are saying.

A 3-letter agency warning about spying on you.

Hilarious!

Best advice I've heard: if you find a GPS tracker on your car, remove it, go to the nearest truck stop, and put it on the container of a truck with out of state plates.

Wait, they actually prosecute people who lie to congress?

Looking forward to the trials of Comey, Clapper, Brennan, Rice, Clinton, Schiff, and a host of others.

Not to mention all the social media CEOs.

Reddit has a 4-year history (at least) of quarantining then banning subs that the admins don't like, regardless of 'site rules'. Suddenly, child porn, calls to violence, or doxxing are posted from accounts that are not regular users of the subs in question to "justify" pulling the plug.

Now that the Chinese are part owners, expect it to go full '1984'.

Targeting poor people...sure.

Targeting the rich and powerful for blackmail material has a much better return rate. (See: Jeffrey Epstein, and how fast that went down the memory hole)

I can already see "drone target practice for free stuff."
