  • I suppose, but if you want to keep the nuance, the kid is a teenage girl, Jeremy is the boyfriend, and Jacob is hella gay and the parents have said they don’t care. One kid explicitly not having a condition (the second bill specifically said it’s not subject to those conditions) doesn’t mean the other magically went away


  • To my understanding (not saying I agree with it, just trying to make the logic understood for awareness)…

    • Congress passed a law allocating funding, but also requiring access for Congressional inspections without notice

    • More funding was later allocated, and it explicitly was not conditioned on access for inspections

    • Noem took that to mean allowing inspections without notice were no longer required, despite the initial funding with the requirement still being in place



  • No. Grand juries are used when a prosecutor wants to bring a certain level of charges against someone. The prosecutor basically shows the evidence they have that would justify a case, and they sign off on the indictment (charges). While a trial is not a sure thing for either side, grand jury proceedings are basically a formality and it’s not uncommon for a prosecutor to go their entire career without failing to get a grand jury indictment.

    If an officer-involved shooting is justified and there’s no reason to bring charges, there’s no reason to get a grand jury involved either.
