      Having never read (or even heard of the article until fourteen minutes ago) about it, just leads me to want to order that same dish if they both ordered it. Though it looks like a dish I’d order anyways.

      A married couple ordered the same dish, the _horror_, as if a married couple wouldn't have similar tastes. My parents regularly get the same thing when eating out, its not planned its just everyone ordering what they feel like.
      Of all the circus that goes into being president/ a celebrity, atleast let people eat whatever they want without judgement.

      Journalistic academia today (at least in this country) is less about generic investigative reporting and more about advocacy and campaigning causes, at least that's how it is in our journalism studies. Lots of social and political sciences scholarships and awards granted by media and social advocacy organizations, with priority given to immigrants and visual minorities.

    Point of clarification, presidential records are never accessible via the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). They are instead accessible via the Presidential Records Act (PRA). Congress and the Supreme Court private documents are never made public because when you write/interpret the laws you get to decide which ones apply to you.

      Dude don’t even get me started on the Supreme Court. Like you know they always blah blah blah they created three equal branches that all cancel each other out “equally” except it’s all bullshit and we know one branch has 80% of the power. It’s like saying you have a 50/50 chance of winning the lottery because either you don’t or you do. AND then inexplicably the judges have lifetime power, no general worries of reelection if they’re biased or bad. Insane

      The 3 branch of governments throughout history literally work by 1) giving president more and more power 2) always reminding president they only gave him power cause they are lazy and can take it all away 3) don’t mess with the Supreme Court because they might just call everything unconstitutional

    • @Minecraftmike5089

      Additionally, just because the release of the documents would be a crime does not mean the viewing by the public would be a crime. The US does not have any sort of secrets act like the UK does, and any such legislation would be laughably incompatible with the constitution.

      @Hill.3669 Год назад +143

      I don't think the staffers have that much freedom though. If they choose to omit certain events unfairly and those events boil over and reach the president at a worse time, they can loose their jobs. Take for example a disaster like the Ohio Train Derailment, let's say a staffer held stock at Norfolk Southern (the company that ran the train) and wanted to sell their stock later in the day but an acknowledgment from Biden would bring down the stock price, the staffer could easily choose to omit the news. This action would however hurt Biden's image because when asked about the issue later on, he would be oblivious to it which would mean that his staffers are failing at their jobs.

That one titled "Bin Ladin Determined To Strike in US" almost a month to the day before 9/11.

      Purely a guess, but this could potentially be to prevent events in the eastern states having more focus then those in the western states. In Washington, Oregon, and California the president would be getting up at 4am then actually make it to the oval office at 6am when those states start to get going. Meanwhile 7am on the east coast isn't that late and a national issue is unlikely to arises domestically before then. Likewise if some major event happens in the evening on the west coast, the president is more likely to be in his normal work hours to address it as opposed to having to be dragged out of bed and tired the next day

      Definitely used to be a pretty common thing the Presidents did. And something that pretty much every president since w bush has been trying to get back to.

      @@stratagama On a daily basis, Presidents are living and working in the same building, day after day after day. Think back to the pandemic, and how many people were feeling "stir crazy" working from home. It's essentially a 24hr, 7 day a week job working in the White House. Try to keep that pace for 4 or 8 years. That's why Trump said "This is more work than in my previous life. I thought it would be easier". Hard to imagine what you're getting into when you're that ignorant.

      @Rexvideowow 6 месяцев назад +3

      $755,580,000 for 2023, which was not a leap year, so that's 365 days = $2,070,082.19 per day. In the video, for some reason he's off by a few dollars ($2,070,079). He lists $86,254 as the hourly pay (we're dividing by 24 here); it should be $86,253.42 (only off by $1.42). He then lists $3,593 per minute, which is grossly off (should be $1,437.56; we're dividing by 60 minutes here). It looks like the mistake he made was dividing by 24 a second time, which you correctly identified. He also generalizes the "3/4 of a million dollars, by 7am" figure, which is $750k; more accurately, it's $603,773.97 (7 hours * $86,253.42 hourly pay = $603,773.97). Off by $146k. I also disagree with the usage of the word "before" when referring to when the president wakes up, which is ambiguous. He obviously means "by the time".
