Trump signs executive order ending cashless bail

President Donald Trump signed an executive order ending cashless bail on Monday. "One of the executive orders has to do with cashless bail -- that's when the big crime in this country started," Trump said before signing the order. He said that when a person kills someone, and they are released on cashless bail, they are just told to return to court, but they don't. "They thought it was discriminatory" to require bail after killing people on the street, Trump said. The executive order charges the attorney general to identify cashless bail jurisdictions in order to withhold their federal funding. "So important -- this isn't Republican or Democrat, Trump said, signing the order. "By the way, most Democrats agree with this. We got to bring our country back."

Republicans, is this true, or has our President lost his mind?

During the last Presidential Admin, we saw exactly how dropping bail worked out. Crime rose like flood water.

If there's enough evidence to make an arrest, the person arrested needs to sit their ass in jail until trial, or put some skin in the game to ensure there's money for resources to track them down should they not show for court.

I didn't think it was possible either ... but it has happened.

On Feb. 2, a grand jury in Manhattan Supreme Court indicted Clark for murder in the second degree, assault, two counts of robbery and grand larceny.
The suspect was arraigned Thursday on the superseding charges. At the hearing, Manhattan prosecutors requested that Clark be remanded without bail.
But in a shocking move, Judge April Newbauer released Clark on his own recognizance.

But since you asked

Key findings of this study include:
Individuals released on Zero Bail were subsequently rearrested for a total of 163% more crimes than individuals released on bail.
Arrested individuals released on Zero Bail reoffended at an average rate that was 70% higher than arrestees who posted bail.
The average recidivism rate for those released on Zero Bail was 78% over 18 months, while the average recidivism rate for those released on bail was only 46%.
Individuals released on Zero Bail committed new felonies 90% more often than those who posted bail.
Individuals released on Zero Bail committed new misdemeanors 123% more often than those who posted bail.
Individuals released on Zero Bail were rearrested for two or more new crimes 148% more often than those released on bail.
Individuals released on Zero Bail committed new violent offenses 200% more often than those who posted bail.

Okay let's just keep you in jail until we get some evidence to support your arrest.

1% is more than enough for you.
How often do you think men dress up like women so they can expose themselves to women in the women's locker room?
Yet you'll use that argument to say trans women shouldn't be allowed to use the women's bathroom.

Cashless bail is atrocious. Having said that, Trump lacks the authority to do this. This will get swatted down in court.

They've done it with speed limits and the drinking age in the past.

Yes, and an EBT card.

Same thing JPW did. Bragged about his doctorate and few nights later was talking about his gig as a short order cook.

I don't judge people by what they do for a living or by how much money they make, but it isn't a good look when they have to lie because of insecurities or whatever.

I don't talk about my career on here anymore. And it doesn't my posture here if I'm simply regarded a stock guy at the local 7-11.

This isn't true. There are lots of layoffs but the people laid off, but people in larger SW firms aren't laid off.

Google even had layoffs, and in 6 months most everyone was hired back in different rolls.

I personally have never been laid off, the day may come but I suspect I will retire before that.

RE:Like Microsoft and their 100 day rule; look it up clowns.

The 100 day rule is for Temporary employees, IOW the "employee" worked (W2) for someone else NOT Microsoft.

Its not a LAYOFF, its the end of the term the IRS has said is max allowable before the person is an employee.
Also you would know this going into the position.

Google has something similar for TVCs, there's a matrix the only exception is if you are going to get hired by the FAANG, then you wouldn't need this period.

Indeed. All kinds of workers get laid off all the time.

It's worth knowing if you get fired for cause, like not showing up, or showing up drunk, or not doing your job, you won't qualify for unemployment benefits.

So, try to avoid being that kind of worker, or you won't get unemployment when your number comes up in the Great Trump Depression that Republicans voted for to own the libs.

My favorite getting laid off event was when I told my boss after I'm done getting this LAN and Exchane Server and tape backup rotation and licensing and phone system sorted out, there isn't going to be much more for me to do around here.

Not long after I did those things I got laid off.

So that was a good lesson to learn.

I couldn't be from California, because the baseline humidity is over 32%. My people need continental climates, not coastal.

I do like gardening, and can I can grow more produce in my 90 annual frost free days than you can in a year round growing climate.

Finally, it is the southerners that are known the world over for sexual relations with livestock, which further narrows the gene pool and reinforces everyone's understanding that southern people are inbred.
