An even marginal organization of FAU students could've sealed the deal one way or the other, yes.

The first time I ever voted in a presidential election was in 2000 in Florida. Honestly, I'm amazed I still care π€£
Indeed. And Gore gracefully conceding sealed the deal, but that was a different time, back when both parties accepted election results.
Scratch that. 448 of those mail-in ballots got counted. Thomson is now ahead by 5 votes out of 19,072 votes cast.
For those of you who weren't alive for the 2000 election, remember kids, every vote counts
Crazy night here in Boca. This is with all precincts reporting but with 468 mail-in ballots still out countywide.
Throughout the series, whenever Swearengen is frustrated/annoyed but is powerless to address the source of the annoyance, it is comedy gold ... Of course, when he can address it, it's usually pretty horrific!
Excellent read. Sometimes I just go back and watch the episode about Wu's stolen dope, because it's one of the funniest things I've ever seen on TV. Comedy, tragedy, that show has it all.
Remember the incident where DHS claimed officers shot a guy because he attacked them with a snow shovel?
Yeah. It didn't happen. They shot him through the door of his own home. And then arrested him. And then lied about it. Again.
And they almost shot some kids in the process.
The best part? Now that the job market HAS flooded & tanked, the advice isnβt βoh hey maybe we were wrong & that whole humanities thing is actually MORE important in the face of AI,β itβs:
YOU MUST ALL WORK IN THE TRADES!
Ok yeah definitely thatβll fix it anything but reading books I guess
Propublica is one of the best journalistic outfits working in America today. Good on'em
Oh, so THAT'S how Elon knew Trump was in the Epstein files!
The Border Patrol should be at the border, not on the streets of American cities. And Congress should nix any funding for ICE's weaponry. If ICE agents believe an arrest will be dangerous, they should work with armed local law enforcement.

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.
"A president bent on imposing his will on everything from the media to universities to international corporations to major law firms to the nationβs museums to how the states conduct their elections is a tyrant."
Link in the first post is a gift link if you want to read more.
"A president who orders states to redraw voting districts in a non-Census year to strangle the opposition is a tyrant.
"A president who demands absolute obedience from his partyβs officeholders and who calls for their defeat when one crosses him is a tyrant.
A president who threatens to seize another nationβs territory βwhether they like it or notβ is a tyrant.
"A president who prostitutes the Department of Justice to persecute or intimidate his perceived enemies, now including the chairman of the independent Federal Reserve, is a tyrant.
"In what seemed a joking remark (with him, you can never be sure), Trump recently told congressional Republicans that he would not try to block the 2026 election because people would then call him a dictator. Itβs much too late for that."
Our editorial for tomorrow's @sun-sentinel.com, the one-year anniversary of Trump's inaguration reads in part: (1/x)
At the @sun-sentinel.com Editorial Board, we are on the side of good government. So we often disagree with the party that previously wanted to drown gov't in a bathtub and now wants it big enough to punish enemies and reward friends. But not always. A case in point in today's editorial (gift link):
I think that is a fair point, but I would also say institutional rot affects everyone. When the parameters change as new people come in, it can change behavior across the board. That said, I do think that's a perfectly fair criticism of the piece
ICE went from 10,000 agents to more than 22,000 in 2025 amid a massive hiring push that lowered the agency's professionalism. The killing in Minneapolis is the result.
Our editorial (gift link):
The ceremony will feature light roadkill hors dβoeuvres, goblets of beef tallow, and a sewage plunge, and will include a memorial tribute to the parasitic worm that perished after eating a portion of his brain, but whose influence continues to be deeply felt.
Sorry, there's a part 3 even though I said 1/2 in the first post.
My point is that the rest of this money could be rolled up in that grand jury investigation. It is possible. But since grand jury deliberations are secret, we have no idea. 3/3
Prior to this herald story, there was already a grand jury investigation in Tallahassee on the $10 million of Medicaid money misappropriated through hope Florida and into political committees. That grand jury is being done by the elected State attorney from Leon County, where Tallahassee is located.
Hi! That's my post. To answer your question, let's say it's not legal. Who should do something about it? The governor? The attorney general, who's in the Hope Florida scandal even deeper than the gov? 1/2
Even more narrowly tailored, these last few weeks, when all the kids are on winter break, everybody's taking vacation, no one seems to know what day it is, what planet we're on, etc
