These judges have absolutely no foundation for that statement.

California's open carry ban unconstitutional, appeals court rules
Judge Lawrence VanDyke, a Trump appointee, said in the 2-1 decision that the state law could not stand under the Supreme Court’s 2022 landmark gun rights ruling.

Mein Vater war (guter) Kunde im Mitarbeiter-Shop des Unternehmens, bei dem er 2004 nach 35 Jahren Betriebszugehörigkeit in Rente ging. Zuletzt hat er dort 2018 oder 2019 eingekauft, im Januar 2023 ist er verstorben. Ich habe den Shop mehrfach darüber informiert. Kurz vor Weihnachten erneut Werbepost an die Adresse des im Frühjahr 2022 verkauften Elternhauses. Ich überlege jetzt, mal den Datenschutzzuständigen ausfindig zu machen und anzufragen, ob das da alles DSGVO-konform abläuft.

I‘m from West Germany, I never learned Russian or even how to read Cyrillic script. But since Russia‘s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 I must have had so much much exposure that I can now read this important message on a sign at #39C3. Learning through osmosis in times of crisis.

I get it, but man -- we're mostly just exhausted. It's been 10 years of this. None of our institutions are helping us. Everyone's been in various forms of going broke since 2022 because of inflation and high interest rates. Trump's approval ratings are low and nobody wants him

Strikes run on pizza.
Turns out they also can begin to end on them.
Several pies, in fact, arrived on North Shore Drive on the brisk Tuesday that was Oct. 18, 2022,
when the strikers first walked out of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette newsroom
because the PG had violated federal labor law.
The workers said they would not go back to their jobs until their employer followed the rules.
They had no idea it would take three years
