Elon Musk's Boring Company cut a 1.7-mile tunnel beneath the streets of Las Vegas that's meant to offer a clean way of clearing up traffic in Sin City. Since it opened, the tunnel has drawn criticism for its high construction costs and relatively low passenger numbers compared with traditional mass transit systems like trains and subways. Now, the company behind it has been accused of skirting "building, environmental and labor regulations," amid a lack of oversight on the project.
Mineral water from several European nations has been found for the first time to be contaminated with TFA, a type of PFAS "forever chemical" that is a reproductive toxicant accumulating at alarming levels across the globe.
Gullible Idiots, pay attention. On this one you in particular oneironaut and Msgt and shrimpdic.
I am tired of the lazy not just intellectually lazy. The files deleted by the committee, seem to follow the established rules and were on government storage and part of the government record. They were backed up and archived as a part of the record. This is a by law thing. They are not gone and were never public.
The committee released an 845-page report, more than 100 transcripts of testimony, along with memos, depositions and documents. IN FACT, the House could open ALL the records to the public if it chooses. Since it is such a big deal, you better get on the GQP to do so as they are in control of them to open ALL the records on J6 collected by the House Committee.
Look up the archive information... US House Archives
Senate Archives for giggles too.
A light read by the records office that includes relevant laws.
See? That isn't too hard.
Plea deal. He was certainly charged with far more. Clearly his crime rose to felony level. Just like the getaway driver if their partners murder someone robbing a bank.
Federal Criminal Attorneys:
18 U.S. Code 1752 says, "whoever knowingly enters or remains in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority to do so with the intent to impede or disrupt the orderly conduct of Government official functions, engages in disorderly or disruptive conduct in, or within proximity to, any building or grounds when their conduct impedes or disrupts normal business ... ."
The penalties for violating this federal law depending on the specific actions taken and the circumstances surrounding the crime:
For basic incidents of trespassing on restricted property: the crime is prosecuted as a misdemeanor, and you could face a maximum sentence of one year in jail as defined under 18 U.S.C. 1752(b)(2).
If you carried or used a deadly weapon during the incident, or if anyone suffered significant bodily injury due to the incident: it's charged as a felony, and you could face up to 10 years in prison if convicted as defined under 18 U.S.C. 1752(b)(1)(A).
Very interesting and this is something I have thought a long time about his actions. He did get addicted to the spot light and lives for it. But our apartheid FElon clearly has some serious right wing racist ideas.
