They will unless those 2-year-olds pay up. Justices need cruises to clear their heads before making important decisions.

That’s exactly how most Chinese counterfeits are made. By patent definition, a counterfeit is an illegal copy of an original. Any similar or identical items produced outside of contract are infringements, and considered counterfeits.
Also, not all grey market counterfeits are exactly the same as originals. The manufacturers no longer care about brand representation, so they tend to have far lower quality control standards, and often use lower-quality materials to increase profits.
It gives them a new point of focus rather than the record-breaking severity of Beryl this early in the year.
Besides having countless unrecorded conversations with Putin while in office, Trump told Viktor Orbán, the authoritarian PM of Hungary, that he would not send another penny in support of Ukraine if he takes office.

He also is refusing to support NATO allies, and will let Russia do “whatever the hell they want,” if a nation doesn’t spend enough on defense.

Oof. That acronym.
I have no mouth and I must scream.
Semantics. Congress writes bills. The Governor signs it into law.
It’s true that the Supreme Court doesn’t write laws. I was wrong to write that. They interpret law, including the constitution. In this case they are supporting constitutional enshrinement if the ballot measure gets a 60% vote.
I don’t see that constitutional enshrinement on the 2020 ballot. Do you have a link?
State Congress writes bills. The Supreme Court writes interprets laws. Constitutional enshrinement is up to the state’s Supreme Court. They left it up to the voters in November, 60% to win.
The state Supreme Court put cannabis on the ballot in November, just like abortion.
It would do even more harm if people were more aware of how China is able to make things so inexpensively. Amazon and Walmart have standardized obfuscating slave labor.
In Xinjiang, the government is the trafficker. Authorities use threats of physical violence, forcible drug intake, physical and sexual abuse, and torture to force detainees to work in adjacent or off-site factories or worksites producing garments, footwear, carpets, yarn, food products, holiday decorations, building materials, extractives, materials for solar power equipment and other renewable energy components, consumer electronics, bedding, hair products, cleaning supplies, personal protective equipment, face masks, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and other goods—and these goods are finding their way into businesses and homes around the world.

Yes, the US also employs slave labor for big food brands. It’s important to be aware of those as well.
They were really clever with inside jokes in Arrested Development.
The family eats mustard and Parmesan as a gag meant to refer to his role as Colonel Mustard.
Gene Parmesan also buys a knife from a shop next to a kids play place with a ball pit called “My Little Ballroom.”
These are all very valid points of comparison. It’s a shame they weren’t clearly conveyed by either of them during the debate.
Trump wants Israel to finish what they started and expand into Palestinian territory.
He told Orbán that he intends to pull support from Ukraine if he becomes President again.
He will turn his back on any NATO allies that don’t pay enough.
He’s weak on regulating human rights violations in Chinese trade, and considers Taiwan our primary economic rival.
And I don’t think I need any links to substantiate his ongoing love affair with Putin and Kim.
State constitutional enshrinement is already on the November ballot for Florida, Maryland, South Dakota, Colorado, and now Nevada.
Montana and Missouri aren’t far behind with submitted signatures.
Nebraska, Arkansas, and Arizona are still gathering signatures.
Pennsylvania is awaiting legislative approval.
They have plenty of aid on land. The obstacle is land delivery to Gaza due to Israeli attacks, not weather damage to the pier.
The pier has been used to get more than 19.4 million pounds, or 8.6 million kilograms, of food into Gaza but has faced multiple setbacks.
She noted that the secure area onshore is “pretty close to full,” but that the intention is still to get aid into Gaza by all means necessary. She said the U.S. is having discussions with the aid agencies about the distribution of the food.
The big challenge has been that humanitarian convoys have stopped carrying the aid from the pier’s storage area further into Gaza, to get it into civilian hands, because they have come under attack.
That’s true. They’re like meteorologists in that respect. I wish I had the same security of employment in the event of complete failure to meet expectations.
I wonder why. Maybe it has something to do with Republicans in Congress overtly supporting Russia or covertly supporting China? “Ukraine is a non-NATO failed state. We would pull out our support.” “The review board restricting Chinese investments is governmental overreach.”
They’ve already succumbed to the disinformation and are unknowingly supporting the agenda.
Seems that way. Empowering local governments to determine legality will inevitably allow NIMBY to criminalize homelessness across the nation, with each city pointing fingers as the next.
Right. They’re adult enough to do it online. It’s arguably better for an 18 or 19 year old to dance in a club than have an OnlyFans. At least after working in a club they can choose to move on to other career options without complete documentation of their previous line of work.
