Someone really needs to kick 's head off his narrow shoulders. This guy is a smarmy, dishonest prick whose entire job seems to be instigating irrelevant moments in the press room. This is a perfect example...

"...for every four litres provided to Gauteng by Rand Water, one litre is wasted through leakage (the city’s fault) and one litre is either given away for free (public good), stolen (the public’s fault), or not accounted for (much harder to allocate blame). This means only half of what is provided can be charged for." https://businesstech.co.za/news/lifestyle/756675/why-taps-are-running-dry-in-south-africas-richest-city/

The nepotism runs deep with this one and never being called to task for it by Democrats or anyone else, it's time for a little entitlement reward.

"In Bid to Tighten Grip on GOP, Donald Trump Endorses Daughter-in-Law for RNC Co-Chair"

https://time.com/6694269/donald-trump-lara-trump-republican-national-committee/

"Donald Trump endorsed his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, to help lead the Republican National Committee, a move that would tighten his hold on the party even as the 2024 nominating contest continues."

>> I don't think it's fair to accuse #Democrats of never calling Trump to task for his nepotism… because the press was singlemindedly focused on "but her emails."… They're doing it again now.

#Dems are singularly responsible for #virtueSignaling and #appeasement in making political appointments, while #Trump & #GOP are openly engaged in #nepotism.

Between these two extremes, it is the #Dem Leadership's fault for not choosing competent apolitical appointees.

It's important for everyone to recognize that what you're saying makes no sense whatsoever.

You're blaming the Democratic Party for failing to do things that it is not possible to do. You're angry at Democrats for what Republicans did.

That's what this whole thread is about. Trump appointed his own family members to White House positions, and some people here are angry... at Democrats.

This is insane.

Are Guardian opinion pieces deliberately annoying and judgy? Everyone alive ages. It is not complicated. Using a woman's age to flog papers is weird and anti-feminist. People who are 50 usually look about 50. There is no shame in it. Aging is a gift.
For the record, I no longer read opinion pieces as 99% of them are idiotic. I only make exceptions for Adrian Chiles.

@ElizaB @JackTheCat Remarkable what you can be paid for when your wife is an editor. But maybe the Grauniad should think about becoming a national newspaper, not just one of London and the SE and spending the money on journalism.

Gnome wayland had and API to request for screen capture, last year or so they changed their API, made one set of "private API" for their own software ( #nepotism ) with out any limitations, and one "public API" with sh*t ton of limitations and clutter for other software. We at Flameshot were bombarded by Gnome users' bug report and Gnome devs refused to address the damn issue.

politicalfinger,

@georgetakei If republicant’s want to impeach Biden over alleged nepotism as VP, it’s going to get interesting.

Demand McCarthy investigate Trump and family!

Let’s put every single congressman, senator, president, governor, and USSC justice, under oath, and ask them if they have ever used their position of power to influence anything in a family member or friend’s life.

Then ask them if they have used that same power and influence to earn millions above their official salaries, by opening doors for special interest groups, and corporate America’s billionaires.

We would have nobody in our government.

"I can't even figure out what school boards do by the way" - Doug Ford, Premier of Ontario

He needs to touch base with his nephew Michael Ford. After all, Mike started out as school trustee until Doug ramped things up & appointed him Ontario's Minister of Citizenship and Multiculturalism.

Ontario's Integrity Commissioner was pretty blunt in his assessment of Minister Steve Clark's connection to the $8.3 billlion #Greenbelt swindle:

Minister Clark "chose to stick his head in the sand" because he knew the outcome would be "politically challenging for him."

Premier #DougFord says Minister Clark will remain on the job and will not resign.

gemelliz,

"in a functional democracy, Housing Minister Steve Clark would have no choice but to resign over a breach of his own duties this severe.
👉​ But this is Doug Ford’s #Ontario and he’s going to give Clark a pass because he’s a “good guy” and he “works hard.”

Gentle reminder that the Press Secretary for the Premier is MPP Steve Clark's daughter, Caitlin Clark.
