Bernie Sanders introduced legislation to stop arms sales to Israel. Get on those phones.

Bernie writes:
"Today, with colleagues, I introduced legislation to block arms sales to Israel.

Sending more weapons to Netanyahu's extremist government is immoral & illegal: U.S. weapons are responsible for far too many civilian casualties in Gaza.

We must end our complicity in this atrocity." (Images of the bill attached.)

"the crime rate of Manhattan is 14.1 per 1,000 people" factoid actualy [sic] just statistical error. average person commits 0 crimes per year. The Adams Administration, which lives in New Jersey & commits over 10,000 crimes each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

Adding this to the ever-growing pile of evidence supporting the position that AI scraping isn't fair use. Because if you're willing to pay sometimes, you shouldn't get to just take the stuff you don't think is worth paying for.

How supermarkets intentionally spike the prices of products then slightly decrease them: framing that as a "discount" -->> www.theguardian.com/business/202... (so many overlaps with emissions accounting tricks and greenwashing math here!)

The ACCC claims that Coles had planned the temporary price spike to establish a new higher “was” price for the subsequent promotion after receiving a request from the supplier for a price increase.

This helped Coles, at a minimum, maintain its profit margin on a grocery item while keeping the products in its promotional category, according to the regulator.


In court documents, the ACCC cited the example of a 16-pack of Strepsils honey and lemon throat lozenges sold at Coles.
A similar practice occurred on 245 products sold at Coles monitored by the ACCC, with the new promotional price almost always higher than the price charged before the spike.
The separate proceedings against Woolworths include nearly identical allegations affecting 266 products featured in its “Prices Dropped” promotion, including Arnott’s Tim Tams, Palmolive dishwashing liquid, Raid insect spray and Oreo cookies.


The court documents allege that Woolworths priced its 370g Oreo family pack at $3.50 from January 2021 to November 2022, before the price spiked to $5 for 22 days.
The court documents allege that Woolworths priced its 370g Oreo family pack at $3.50 from January 2021 to November 2022, before the price spiked to $5 for 22 days.

It was then returned to the “Prices Dropped” promotion for $4.50, which was 29% higher than its long-term regular price.

“Denaturalization.” They’re going to strip people of their citizenship and deport them. They’re going to deport US citizens.

Rafah was supposed to Biden's "red line" ... instead, Rafah is now destroyed and Biden and Harris are committed to continue to send weapons and expand the destruction. Arms embrago and cease fire now!
