I mean, every market has 2 or 3 whole aisles dedicated entirely to cleaning products and each seems specific for one thing only. I feel like some soap with a disinfectant is enough, but most people I know do a whole 3 stage cleaning ritual - soap (and rinse), disinfectant (and rinse), bleach (and rinse to finish)

Why is the Republican party so content with denying healthcare as a human right, and trying everything they can to harm people who need any sort of assistance? Like.... How do they do it? How much are we talking here when we speak about tax savings for them?

Pretend I am rich? Like how much money am I getting back by Republicans kicking men off healthcare or destroying insurance for those who need it most. It must be alot right?

I'm up to this point in the guide, going over setting up VMs and the configuration to the network to accommodate them, and am wondering if anyone would recommend going a different route? Like was said in the beginning, this is just their workflow, that they've had for a while. Are there better ways to explore now?

An indictment has been completed against 402 people, including Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu, accusing them of being part of a criminal organization. The 3,900-page document alleges that the structure, referred to as the “İmamoğlu Interest-Driven Criminal Organization,” caused a public loss of 160 billion Turkish Lira and 24 million dollars.

For his alleged role as the leader, prosecutors have requested a prison sentence for İmamoğlu ranging from 828 to 2,352 years. He is personally charged with 143 criminal acts, including founding a criminal organization, bribery, fraud, and money laundering. [...] The indictment repeatedly uses the phrase "like the tentacles of an octopus," a metaphor originally used by President Erdoğan, to describe the group's reach.

The document claims the organization was established to take over the CHP party and create a fund for İmamoğlu's presidential candidacy. It alleges that the ring used irregular tenders, zoning permits, and other municipal processes to generate illicit revenue for both personal enrichment and political goals. [...] In total, 99 individuals are formally accused of membership in the criminal organization.

Beyond İmamoğlu, other mayors and officials are named, with specific accusations of bribery, extortion, and tender rigging. The investigation also targets journalists, accusing them of knowingly aiding the organization through favorable media coverage. [...] The indictment includes statements from 76 individuals who benefited from active repentance and 15 secret witnesses.

Israeli media in Hebrew:
- The United States ~~and Israel~~ are working on an alternative plan for the Gaza Strip in case the Trump plan fails.

So, they are planning to break the fake ceasefire OFFICIALLY, ignore what they agreed on, escalate the attacks into a full scale assault, kill a few hundred/thousand innocent people and then blame the whole thing on Hamas and Palestinians.

In the wake of the Chicago South Shore raid—which reportedly saw masked U.S. agents rappelling down from a Black Hawk helicopter, bursting into a 130-unit building, kicking down doors, zip-tying and holding American citizens at gunpoint, and the detention of 37 Venezuelan nationals—a law school classmate asked me: Why isn’t every one of these raids—where officers trash property and terrorize residents—a potential Bivens case?

The answer, chilling, at least to me, is: Because my team and I spent decades at the Department of Justice making sure that such lawsuits would be dismissed, typically without trial, and often even without discovery.

For half a century, Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents has been hailed as the primary safeguard against unconstitutional actions by federal officers. Bivens permitted victims of these actions to seek money damages from individual federal officers directly under the Constitution. These actions are often analogized to the far more common “Section 1983” claims available against state and local officials under the Civil Rights Act of 1871. But accountability under Bivens is far more constrained than many lawyers might assume. Certainly, if you ask the general public whether they think there is a way to file a civil suit and receive compensation—whether from individual officers or the United States more broadly—for constitutional violations such as excessive or deadly force by federal actors, the general belief is: of course. Yet constitutional violations hardly ever result in the payment of damages. The reality is the behemoth that was Bivens now no longer serves victims of constitutional harms, the federal workforce as a whole, individual officers in particular, or society at large. Those in the United States must look somewhere else for recompense, deterrence, settled litigation expectations, and institutional and jurisprudential order.

Here’s why.
