no i still can't get over lyft and uber completely shutting down operations in minneapolis bc the city council passed a minimum wage requirement for rideshare drivers. they rather cease operations in an entire metro city than pay workers fairly.

and it makes me think about how boeing is offing their whistleblowers instead of fixing their shitty airplanes from falling apart in the sky.

or how train execs are still lobbying for more lax quality control of trains even though their trains are derailing with hazardous materials on them.

or how the uaw union called for a ceasefire in gaza but expelled union workers who protested for a ceasefire during biden's speech to the union.

or how the nypd will fine $100 to people who skip a $2.50 subway fare all while the national guard is searching bags for "psychological" safety.

all these companies and institutions know are greed and would rather deal with a lawsuit bc it probably ends up being cheaper than the profits they generate. and all of this goes unchecked bc we rather have a capitalist society than accessible and safe transportation.

pete buttigieg you stupid twink, you're absolutely worthless!

#'secretary of transportation'.... has he (or this admin) done anything since he's come into office? like genuinely?#minneapolis doesn't want those evil companies anyway but god it's not walkable by any means i hope we can find alternatives soon #politics

Planning on packing the pc up later today and wouldn't you know, of course it hasn't randombly rebooted even once in the last 24hrs lmao. Sorry luv but I ain't trusting you. Just need to call the shipping service to make sure that I can use the nearby locker system to send it back, i'm not sure if it has large enough lockers. I hope it does though, because I can haul it there myself. But if I need to go to the nearest post office, I'm gonna need to call a ride because it's pretty far and in a really shit location to get to. fingies crossed the locker works.

#shut up yoi #You'd think they would've kept a post office in the largest fucking suburb in the city #but nah let's move it to a neighbouring suburb which is really difficult to get to by public transport #brilliant!#everyone disliked that.

Why are there Marines helping to guard the White House? Isn't that the job of the secret service?

Yes, the Secret Service is responsible for the personal protection of the President and his family, and they take the lead in doing so in the White House just as they do outside of the White House.

But the White House is also a vitally important military facility, so the military has a significant presence there as well. The President is Commander-in-Chief of all American armed forces and the Situation Room is obviously staffed by the military, as are the White House's emergency bunker. And, of course, the President always has a military aide nearby with the "football" briefcase required in case of nuclear war. The U.S. Army is responsible for handling the White House Transportation Agency and the travel logistics for the President and his Administration. The U.S. Navy runs food services at the White House Mess (I believe that military aides also do any necessary grocery shopping for the President and First Family -- the President is personally responsible for actually paying for his family's regular groceries). All of the service branches of the military help run the White House Communications Agency, both in the White House itself and whenever/wherever the President is traveling. The President's personal physician and most of the White House Medical Unit are usually active-duty members of the military.

So, yeah, the Secret Service doesn't stop protecting the President just because he's at the White House, but the part played by the military in day-to-day logistics at the Executive Mansion is significant because the White House is basically a military base in addition to being the President's residence and place of work.

As the federal government struggles to recruit young people, a recent survey found that 30% of those between the ages of 18 and 30 have either declined to apply or withdrawn applications for jobs because of strict marijuana policies required for security clearances.

The poll, published on the unofficial marijuana holiday April 20 by ClearanceJobs and the Intelligence and National Security Foundation (INSF), interviewed young adults about federal employment policies, focusing on cannabis.

Participants were first asked whether they’d consider working in a federal position that requires security clearance, and almost 80% said they either would or might consider applying; 40% also said that they’ve used marijuana in the past year.

One of the most notable findings is that 20% of participants said they’ve declined to apply for federal jobs because of the government’s restrictive cannabis policies. Another 10% said they’ve withdrawn applications because of the marijuana rules.

The survey also found that 25% said the government’s marijuana policy would prevent them from seeking employment requiring a security clearance in the future. While 39% said they’d be willing to abstain from cannabis in order to secure a federal job, 18% said they wouldn’t. And 15% said that they wouldn’t stop using marijuana after getting a security clearance.

Interestingly, most of the panel didn’t have a firm grasp on what the government’s cannabis policy actually is. 16% said that any marijuana use automatically disqualifies applicants for security clearance, 37% said there’s no eligibility impact, 24% said it is one of several factors that are considered for clearance, and 23% said they didn’t know.

Similarly, there’s confusion about the policies for people who’ve already obtained security clearances, with 9% saying those individuals can use marijuana anywhere, 31% saying they can use in a legal jurisdiction, 33% saying cannabis use is prohibited, and 26% saying they didn’t know.

Only 4% of participants correctly answered both questions about what the federal government’s security clearance rules are for applicants and those who are already cleared.

The survey involved interviews with 905 adults aged 18-30 living in Virginia, Maryland, the District of Columbia, California, Florida, Texas and Colorado. The interviews took place in February. The margin of error is +/- 3.23 percentage points.

While marijuana employment policies under federal prohibition remain strict, various agencies have moved to loosen requirements as more states have enacted legalization.

For example, the United States Secret Service recently updated its employment policy to be more accommodating to applicants who’ve previously used marijuana, making it so candidates of any age become eligible one year after they last consumed cannabis. Previously, there were stricter age-based restrictions.

The federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) has also revised its cannabis rules for job applicants. Applicants who’ve grown, manufactured or sold marijuana in compliance with state laws while serving in a “position of public responsibility” will no longer be automatically disqualified.

Late last year, draft documents obtained by Marijuana Moment showed that the federal Office of Personnel Management was proposing to replace a series of job application forms for prospective workers in a way that would treat past cannabis use much more leniently than under current policy.

The Biden administration instituted a policy in 2021 authorizing waivers to be granted to certain workers who disclose prior marijuana use, but some lawmakers have pushed for additional reform.

For example, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said at a congressional hearing on marijuana legalization last year that he intended to file a bill aimed at protecting federal workers from being denied security clearances over marijuana.

Last year, the nation’s largest union representing federal employees adopted a resolution supporting marijuana legalization and calling for an end to policies that penalize federal workers who use cannabis responsibly while they’re off the clock in states where it is legal.

The Director of National Intelligence said in 2021 that federal employers shouldn’t outright reject security clearance applicants over past use, and should use discretion when it comes to those with cannabis investments in their stock portfolios.

The FBI also updated its hiring policies that year to make it so candidates are only automatically disqualified from joining the agency if they disclose having used marijuana within one year of applying. Previously, prospective employees could not have used cannabis within the past three years.

The Department of Transportation (DOT) also took a different approach to its cannabis policy in 2020, stating in a notice that it would not be testing drivers for CBD. However, DOT has more recently reiterated that the workforce it regulates is prohibited from using marijuana and will continue to be tested for THC, regardless of state cannabis policy.

Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-OR) sent a letter to the head of DOT last year, stating that the agency’s policies on drug testing truckers and other commercial drivers for marijuana are unnecessarily costing people their jobs and contributing to supply chain issues.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) also emphasized to its workers that they are prohibited from using marijuana—or directly investing in the industry—no matter the state law or changes in “social norms” around cannabis.

While the Biden administration did institute its waiver policy, it came under fire from advocates following reports that the White House fired or otherwise punished dozens of staffers who were honest about their history with marijuana.

Then-White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki attempted to minimize the fallout, without much success, and her office released a statement in 2021 saying that nobody was fired for “marijuana usage from years ago,” nor terminated “due to casual or infrequent use during the prior 12 months.”

Florida wildlife conservation raided a facility and killed over 30 snakes. Even went out of the way to kill the legally owned boa, incorrectly, causing it to suffer for at least 20 mins before passing. This is after being told repeatedly not too by the caretaker that was presnt. Made a bloodbath of the floor.

The officers were having so much fun.

This is animal rights

#guy had permit for burms and retics #law changed #was told to rehome animals but had only made it through 70% by the year #and the fwc arrests him and requires he doesnt rehome the animals due to the law restricting transport #and thats why the officers came in on a random day to kill his remaining pets #ara #animal rights #and no im not exagerating #just google florida python killing #theres both video of the happy officers and photos of the aftermath #dead pet #dead animal #animal death #fwc #herpetoculture #aras want ur pets dead #because they think its better than being owned
