Can you elaborate on the distinction you're making?

The house can stop it, but that seems unlikely. It had a better chance of block in Senate.
I just got out a regal imax screening, seated at showtime and expected some trailers but they ran 30 minutes of straight up ads and then 15 of trailers. Dudes, the movie is already 3 hours long and tickets were $30 a pop - can we please cut this crap all together?
There's no need to threaten like that, the billionaire bracket can absorb 2%, and they know it. It's a bluff and FUD is the only play they have. Some will move loudly for a political statement and the media they own will play up those stories, but reality few will give up NYC lifestyle and convenience over the proposed rate.
Edit- side thought... It would be so easy for one or two to step up and announce they are proud to support their city, to care for their neighbors, and embrace the proposal as a badge of pride and accomplishment. But no, this is america land of the greed
billionaire hedge funder Bill Ackman said he was “gravely concerned” because he believed the leftwing candidate’s policies would trigger an exodus of the wealth “If the city of New York is going socialist, I will definitely close, sell, or move.”
Big fucking rich guys can't handle paying $20k to keep their city above water and create a better future for everyone. Even after they have more than that coming back in fed tax cuts. Good riddance to parasites, go try to do business from Montana or something.
The bottom line: While Trump's actions might be "unseemly," the history of the Logan Act and the fact that it's never been legally tested mean that it's not a "meaningful law" that's "likely to ever be used, against Trump or anyone else"
Good enough for me! let's get to negotiating.
I mean trump proved the Logan act is completely toothless, if that's what you're alluding to. Obama should do it.
That was my hope after bush 2, then again after first trump term. Then the country provided republicons every lever of power as a reward. I'm not holding my breath of anything swinging anywhere.
Its been 11' 8+8" for a while - are you saying they're raising it again? Thought this was a high as they could get it without interrupting the rail line

I dropped my launch edition steam deck last night on carpet and while all the buttons still worked- something was rattling inside of it. After I opened it up I discovered a missing chunk of plastic from the R2 trigger, that piece presses against another to keep the button from over articulating. I suspect this trigger absorbed most of the impact, there was no other visible damage.
Of course I was upset that I broke it, but so very pleasantly surprised to find ifixit had the trigger in stock and reasonably priced. This availability made me love the deck even more, and really the fact valve made these parts available places the deck above any other competition in my mind.
This machine is built to last, I am so excited to get it fixed and get back to gaming.

Eh, Auschwitz took nearly two years to convert from camp to gas chambers, and sounds better paired with alligator. Potato, potato from my perspective.
