Can Kanye West Help Señor Trumpanzee Steal An Election He Can't Win Legitimately?

DownWithTyranny at DownWithTyranny! - 2 minutes ago
Kanye's wife, Kim Kardashian shrugs off his outlandish behavior by reminding everyone that he's bipolar, trying to generate pity for him and sympathy for herself. He's been committed to a mental hospital at least once and, although not officially diagnosed as psychotic, every indication points right at that. And now he wants to help Trump win a second term-- by appealing to low-info fans of his music who might otherwise vote for Biden. I doubt much is going to come of this-- other than lots of fines for faking signatures on nominating petitions in every state in which he tries, ... more »

Neither follow the heart that is not pure love

Bob Dinn at balance10 - 8 minutes ago
I AM the advocate of the here and now. The far-off worlds are only so far as you make them. Life’s transcendent experiences are meant to be lived in the forever moments of the Presence. And the I AM Presence is the measure of molecules of time and space wrapped in a blanket of eternity. Can you experience God today? Then be at peace. You will know Him forever. And if you have not found Him, I pray thee seek him while there is yet time and space. For this compartment of consciousness is assigned to thee for that self-discovery in Him which is so necessary if you are to ente... more »

For the Symposium on Mark Tushnet, Taking Back the Constitution: Activist Judges and the Next Age of American Law (Yale University Press 2020). Mark Tushnet Conventions often reflect enduring values, and so I begin with the conventional statement of appreciation for the seriousness with which the contributors to this Symposium have taken my arguments. As several contributors suggest, I wrote the book in a style intended to make its arguments accessible to interested nonspecialist readers.

The Problem of Man’s Rights

Unknown at The Conservative Socrates - 28 minutes ago
The concept of man’s rights is intelligible only against the background of a certain kind of social order. If there is no social order, the concept of man’s rights is incoherent. The universe does not recognize man’s rights—the existence of a social order or a nation is a necessary condition for the concept of man’s rights to become coherent.

A new study from the University of Michigan on the use of facial recognition in schools is recommending that lawmakers and school administrators ban the use of this technology in educational settings. The researchers behind the study write that facial recognition in schools “will likely have five types of implications: exacerbating racism, normalizing surveillance and eroding privacy, narrowing the definition of the ‘acceptable’ student, commodifying data, and institutionalizing inaccuracy.

How Socialists Won Our Democratic Rights

Kevin Zeese at PopularResistance.Org - 3 hours ago
The myth of modern democracy is that it was handed down from on-high. In fact, the ruling class resisted extending the franchise at every turn – and it was socialists who fought them for the right to vote. Since the advent of the modern state, ruling classes have tried to restrain the voting power of workers and those not “well-born.” Contrary to the mainstream story that capitalism naturally gave rise to democracy, establishment powers in nineteenth-century Europe restricted the vote for as long as they possibly could. Only when faced with mass mobilization — or when continent-wid... more »

Is TikTok Really a Threat to U.S. National Security?

Huan Zhu at The National Interest - 4 hours ago
*Huan Zhu* *Security, Asia* Without a set of common international rules governing data, we will face a fragmented world, rife with uncertainty, that hurts both companies and consumers. There are not that many things that excite both teenagers and policy wonks at the same time, but TikTok has found a way to do so. The fate of this Chinese‐​owned social media company that has become a phenomenon in America is now in the spotlight. Because of concerns over data security, it appears that the company must either be sold to Microsoft (or some other American company) or be forced to sh... more »

*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Asia* The An-2s have reportedly been maintained to a higher standards of readiness than the KPAF’s dilapidated fleet of jet fighters. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Surging dozens or hundreds of difficult-to-detect An-2s could easily overwhelm the air defenses on the DMZ, even if the losses sustained in doing so might be considered unacceptable to a Western military mentality.

In case you do not know Egypt has got Senate elections tomorrow Tuesday and Wednesday. Yes, and already the Egyptians abroad should have participated and elected their representatives on Sunday and Monday via mail around the globe due to coronavirus pandemic. Back in Cairo, most of the Egyptians would have not known that there would be Senate elections or Senate in the first place if it were not the big banners. I would say that the Senate elections banners revived the billboard and outdoors ad industry after it was hit hard by the coronavirus. [image: One of the elections banner... more »

Democrats and Republicans Play Favorites When Allotting Convention Delegates to States

John A. Tures at The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*John A. Tures* *Politics, Americas* Politics is a push-and-pull between the parties and the states. As the Democratic and Republican parties pick their nominees for the presidency, they’ll do so under a delegate system that rewards states for their partisan loyalty – and ignores the common principle of everyone having an equal say. Consider these examples: Texas, home to 28.9 million people, will have 228 pledged delegates at the Democratic National Convention. New York, with two-thirds the number of people, at 19.5 million, will have more pledged delegates – 274. This inequali... more »
