I got lucky in that my publication was through a journal that doesn't charge money for access or submissions. It's part of our professional organization and our annual membership fees cover the journal's expenses.

The accounts are largely based in countries that are suspected by many to be manipulating US public opinion (e.g.Russia/Israel) or from countries with lots of click farms, scam centers, and other "engagement" services.
It showed how much of the American right-wing social media sphere wasn't legitimately American in origin.
That's probably accurate that there wasn't a true bill, but it's one of those things that I don't think has actually been tested.
The specific circumstances where the foreman signed off on the second indictment with 2 charges instead of 3 without the rest of the grand jury suing the exact bill is really weird. But if it weren't for the statue of limitations it would be an easy remedy - just take it back to the grand jury.
And if it were a different technical error, there's a 6- month period after the SoL in which an indictment that's thrown out of techical grounds can be corrected.
But the combination of the 2 is unprecedented as far as I know, and there's a legitimate legal question as to whether it's a bad indictment that should be thrown on on technical grounds (giving 6 months to re-file) or if it simply wasn't an indictment at all.
And now with the whole thing being thrown out because Halligan isn't actually a US Attorney, it's even more confusing - especially when it comes to prosecutorial misconduct she may not have committed since she wasn't actually a prosecutor.
It's a fascinating train-wreck.
IIRC, an indictment that's thrown out for procedural errors has 6 months from the SoL expiration to fix the indictment, so long as the original indictment was made before the SoL expired.
With the question of whether or not the grand jury actually agreed to indict or just the foreman, the more interesting question is whether or not there even is an original indictment to be fixed.
As with many issues surrounding this administration, I don't know if we have precedent on something like this. The way they stack up their fuckups on top of each other and make everything legally hazy means they're either the worst attorneys in America or are really clever. Or, more likely, someone really clever knows how to use one of the worst attorneys in America in an attempt to buy 6 more months to come up with something to justify charging Comey.
Also, they can also now pretend he did something wrong but got off on a technicality. Now that it's thrown out on procedural grounds, they don't have to show their lack of evidence.
The main thing the Endangered Species Act does is limit development in the habitat of endangered species. The President of the United States is a developer. Of course he's targeting the Endangered Species Act. He hates it with a passion.
Also, his felony convictions are related to the overvaluation of land he owns that can't actually be developed due to a conservation easement that's the result of the Endangered Species Act.
Saudi Crown Prince. Trump defended his ordering the murder and dismemberment of a Washington Post journalist just this week.
It's not about homosexuality being wrong. It's about the hypocrisy of the Trump's treatment of sexual minorities.
And let's not forget that it was Clinton who signed an order to eject non-closeted homosexuals from the military.
I'm sure the administration suddenly removing federal whistle lower protections has NOTHING to do with fear of the people who had access to the real files.

Getting 20 interviews is an accomplishment.
I have a 100% sucess record on getting the job offer once I get an interview l, but getting the interview is the hard part for me.
The thing is, I'm also terrible at coaching others for interviews because I don't know exactly what I'm doing right or wrong since I effectively have no negative feedback.
At this point I think it's mostly my confidence that carries me because I basically assume I'm getting the offer. I ask a bunch of questions about the company, working environment, etc and essentially make them pitch the job to me instead of me pitching myself as an employee. I'm also generally comfortable enough due to my past success to mostly be myself, and I think any time you can make the interviewer laugh it's a good sign.
