Several days before Stines allegedly killed the judge, he was interviewed for hours in a deposition in a suit that names Stines in his capacity as sheriff. The lawsuit claimed that Stines knew or should’ve known that a former deputy had coerced a female drug defendant into having sex in exchange for freeing her from house arrest. The defendant said Deputy Ben Fields had forced her to have sex with him in Judge Mullins’ chambers after hours in exchange for Fields taking off her ankle monitor.
Fields, who also served as the judge’s bailiff, pleaded guilty to r-word charges last year. Both Mullins and Stines denied knowing anything about Fields' crimes.
In the wake of the shooting, some in Letcher County have focused on the sheriff’s state of mind.
The plaintiff and her two attorneys said Stines seemed agitated during the deposition, often turning to his attorney for guidance and asking for frequent breaks. The day after the deposition, Stines — who usually returned press calls promptly — took many hours to get back to a reporter about a fatal accident, according to The Mountain Eagle, Letcher’s weekly newspaper. Stines told the newspaper that he’d “told everyone at the sheriff’s office not to say anything to anyone until he returned.”
At around 7 minutes in she lists what other heads of state are there.

A bleating goat is a pretty normal thing to find funny. A thing that an entire species of animal does isn't really a "meme". I think the twitter user is a bit too online.

the stripes were actually just kept from the British East India Company flag, not sure what they were on that flag for though. But point taken.

Thanks for the confirmation. I removed the "alleged" from the title.

It's https://digitallibrary.un.org/record/3951466?ln=en "Combating glorification of Nazism, neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to fuelling contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance". The US always complains that Russia is trying to use it as a gotcha against the US 
You can find the US's rebuttal on the state department website or somewhere like that and it includes reasoning such as that Nazis get to have free speech in the US.
Up until 3 years ago I guess (thought it was more recent tbh), it would show blurry images instead of vector maps and satellite, but it looks like it's detailed now. Previously I think Google had to comply with some protectionist policy that South Korea had in place so that people would use South Korean maps, or something like that.
If so, looking forward to it.
Jordan is so weird man. Whitest looking leaders ever. At 3:31 it looks like he has a literal child (who looks like Timothy Chalamet??) as a representative of Jordan.

Looking for cheaper labor in South Korea. It means an even larger underclass of people in the US who may no longer be tied into the MIC. And you would think the US would be hesitant to build ships in the country right next to the DPRK and China, but whatever floats their boat.
You'd think the US would start leaning more into doing "class collaboration" type stuff in preparation for all the wars they want to start, but instead it seems like they're trying to build a larger 5th column within the US 😆

it's a file format. Any application that says it can use keepass databases should work. Thrre are lots of iOS apps that are comptible and KeePassXC on Windows (or Linux) is the best desktop application. You usually just have your database as a local file but applications also usually support remote databases on a file server, at least on iOS. KeePassXC doesn't have much remote file support built in.

Seems like a cool organization. It looks like it has over 90 countries as members, including Cuba, Russia, Iran, China, Vietnam, etc. Israel is still listed on the members page and the competition this year already just happened, so lets see if they actual commit to banning Israel by the time the next one comes around https://ioinformatics.org/page/members

You can skip past the parts with the CGTN correspondent. They copy western reporter style way too much lol. Basically the newer prime minister/government in the Solomon Islands is continuing it's cooperation with China. And the usual "mutual respect/win-win cooperation" language that countries use when talking about relations with China and vice versa.

> Yet in the hours before Salaam spoke at the convention, many Americans were learning for the first time that the DNC had [removed its goal of ending capital punishment](https://www.huffpost.com/entry/democrats-scrub-death-penalty-campaign-platform_n_66c67a0de4b0b9c7b360296b?1jq) from its official platform. The issue had previously been enshrined in the party platform for years, with the language in 2016 especially robust: “We will abolish the death penalty, which has proven to be a cruel and unusual form of punishment,” it read. “It has no place in the United States of America.”
