So they took out a TSP loan and tried to get out of paying it back. TSP is the US federal government employee savings plan, sobthis person is or was a federal employee or member of the military. You can get a loan against for savings, but the money is taken out of your account and if you don’t pay it back on schedule, it gets treated as an early withdrawal and subjected to income tax and early withdrawal penalty of 10%.

How do they know it’s a god in cat form and not just a statue of a normal cat?

Except they aren’t targeting the one group they always said they would; masked thugs snatching people off the street.

Never should have made it to the Supreme Court in the first place. Plaintiffs are literally arguing that Congress has to manage all programs itself. Massively stupid.

Depends on who responds. Some will just nod and inform the caller that they are indeed federal law enforcement, but others (who absolutely despise ICE as cosplaying wannabes) may decide that taking the actors into custody, even if only for their own protection if a crowd is forming, is the best course of action. If it happens enough, it should force DHS to direct agents to properly identify themselves, and even if not, some actual consequences for these thugs may discourage some from participating. And as others have pointed out, friction between law enforcement agencies is in the population’s best interest.

and there are still masked ~~officers~~ people abducting people off the street

If they refuse to show law enforcement ID, they are just armed people impersonating law enforcement. Call 911!

Well, after last night I think it’s safe to say I will not be liking the Dodgers as a whole any time soon. Ohtani and Teo are cool, though. Impossible to dislike Mookie.

I really hope Iran doesn’t start lobbing missiles at Al Udeid, that would be a catastrophic escalation. I don’t think they will, despite some people’s attempt to depict the Iranian regime as crazy, they are definitely rational and acting in a way they think is in their best interest. I think they realize that attacking the US directly would not be beneficial to their agenda. Anyway, this is the world’s first good look at war conducted via ballistic missile, aside from the brief exchange last year.

Don’t make me like the Dodgers, please.

That’s exactly why it was doomed to failure the moment Elon was forced to complete his purchase of Twitter.

Basically, create a new search engine entry with a URL that defaults to Google’s “web” tab instead of “All”. As others have said, swearing in the search has the same effect.
