- He has given the Medal of Freedom to mostly sports players.
If he has stopped there it wouldn't be that bad. But he also gave it to Gym Jordan, Devin Nunez, and Rush Limbaugh.
And Ed Meese, one of Reagan's AGs who had to resign sue to scandal.

A great Canadian philosopher once said "If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice!"
If I were hiring for a forklift operator, and someone was a good candidate who came with experience but their prior employer didn't certify him properly, I would pay for the certification. $300 seems like noise compared with the general cost of onboarding a new employee. But it's been a while since I worked in Manufacturing/Operations, and when I did the managers at that place were competent, so maybe my standards are too high.
In that case, OP should just be honest about the status of his certification. If other employers hire from WalMart often, they know their practices. The new employer may even want to pay for the classes, if they know the candidate has done the job before and is likely to pass. But I don't know how much it costs and whether a company would normally pay for that.
It may not have happened here, but it sure as hell happened in Germany 85 years or so ago. How did that turn out?
Yes. In fact, in the US, it can be a crime for a doctor to aid someone in distress, if that person is a pregnant woman and helping them might harm the baby they are carrying.

Dude should go a step further and push for PR statehood.
Or is it simply cheaper to manufacture while being sold for the same price?
Yes, it's mainly that. Most vendors don't make their own power adaptors anyway, since there are strict requirements for power adaptors that are plugged into AC wall sockets in each country. The stuff inside the large brick is likely sourced from somewhere else, who has all those certifications worldwide. Note that it also uses standard AC power cable plugs. That large brick can be shipped worldwide by simply changing the AC cable it ships with.
The small GaN Brick is also outsourced, but since it is smaller it is probably more expensive to build. However, the AC plug is integrated into it, which means the seller has to stock physically separate units for each plug type if they want to ship worldwide.
As far as the price is concerned, this one shop is selling them all at around the same price, but I bet the MSRP on the Lenovo one is much higher, because of the brand. The parts inside the Lenovo one are probably cheaper.
I am not allowed to carry these certifications outside Wal-Mart to use.
Says who? Will Walmart use a memory gun to erase your knowledge about which lever does what? If you find another job that uses those skills, they will do whatever they need to paperwork-wise to make you eligible.
Put it all down. Don't use the word "certification" if it makes you feel better, but list all those things somewhere. Some people put a section with "relevant skills" at the end, you can list all the machinery you know how to use.
In fairness to Tony, he was probably drunk at the time.
I mean, he did that in 2020. Heck, he even did that in 2016, noting that he would have won the popular vote too, if it weren't for all the illegal votes.
Or in Moscow
Don't the Dolans still own MSG? They are shitty enough that they might have done it for free
8% is not that huge a chunk. All they have to do is lay off 20% of staff, and they make it back with some margin. The quality of the reporting will suffer, but isn't it going to suffer regardless, now that we know that the owner is under Trump's tiny thumb?
If the NFL wanted to be a league full of "unwritten rules" like that, it may as well be MLB
Yeah, I saw that in the article, and immediately dismissed it for all the reasons I already stated.
Plus, many of the more likely tie scenarios involve Nebraska, one of only two states which appoint EC votes based on congressional district. If Harris wins the lone vote for the district with Omaha in it, it makes it far less likely to end in a tie. Maybe That's what Trump is on about, then: more pressure on Nebraska to change its EC allocation process.
I mean, they can't really engineer a tie. If the vote ends up that way that's one thing, but if they have found a way to manipulate votes why not go for the win?
They could lean on certain states to change their certification, but that didn't work in 2020, there's no reason to assume it would work now. These battleground states have had a lot of attention put on them, their Governors and Secretaries of State aren't going to roll over like that.
No, I think the game they are playing is to purposefully sabotage the certification process at the local level so key Harris wins can be neutralized. If Harris wins GA or AZ, I am fully expecting the local election boards to do everything they can to stall the certification. They've basically been telegraphing that, so much so that there have been recent court rulings telling those local boards they can't do that.
I'm sure that will come up in the confirmation hearing, which is why the Senate is so important. And why the Democrats keep focusing on Texas even though Kamala has a very slim chance there. Cruz is vulnerable, and if Allred takes that seat and keeps the Senate in Democratic hands it will go a long way to limit the damage Trump can do by limiting his choices.
And he keeps talking about the tests if he just took it. Which either means he can't really process the fact that it happened in the past anymore, or they really do have to test him often. Neither is a good look for anyone's grandpa, much less a grandpa who wants to run the free world.
NYC Mayor Eric Adams is under fire from fellow New Yorkers for wearing a baseball cap supporting BOTH the Yankees and Mets.
On Monday, the mayor marched down Fifth Avenue during the annual Columbus Day Parade wearing a baseball cap supporting BOTH the Yankees and Mets! The hat featured a Mets logo on one side, an "X" in between and a Yankees logo on the other side. ... "No wonder Eric Adams got indicted, that hat is a crime against humanity," one user wrote in a post on X, formally Twitter.

Former President Trump on Wednesday clashed with an ABC News correspondent at a convention of Black journalists, slamming her “disgraceful” questioning after she asked why Black voters should trust him with another term.
The phrase “TRUMP TOO SMALL” stems from a memorable moment in the 2016 Republican presidential debates, during which Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., made a crude joke about the size of Trump’s hands.
“And you know what they say about guys with small hands,” Rubio quipped.
President Joe Biden says he won't participate in fall presidential debates sponsored by the nonpartisan commission that's organized them for more than three decades and instead proposes two debates with former President Donald Trump earlier in the year.
Biden’s campaign proposed that the first debate between the presumptive Democratic and Republican nominees be held in late June and the second in September before early voting begins. Trump responded to the letter in an interview with Fox News digital, calling the proposed dates “fully acceptable to me” and joked about providing his own transportation.
