to deal with this. Net Neutrality whether good or bad was beyond the scope of the FCC. Have Congress authorize the FCC to handle this, and while you are at it, have Congress include a "Fairness Doctrine" so the regulated carriers like Facebook and Twitter can't selectively censor viewpoints they don't like.
This whole brouhaha shows he corrupting influence of Hollywood money, and I suggest that a certain company known for it vigorous legal team and control freak attitude that now owns the biggest movie franchises is probably the biggest corruptor in the whole deal.
You do not have to talk to the police. Enough of these incidents have happened.
You get stopped, and the officer asks you:"Do you know why I pulled you over?" If you say something like: "I must have been speeding." You have just incriminated yourself. If you answer at all, you could say: "Officer, I have no idea why you pulled me over?" You have answered their question and have not incriminated your self.

If dog, wolf, and coyote can interbreed and produce fertile offspring how are they different species, and not simply variants of the same species? A wolf, a coyote, and a German Shepard look a whole lot more like similar animals that a German Shepard and a Dachshund.
In the field of econimics, one thing is for sure - and that is that Marxisn and Keyensianism are complete failures. That does not bother some, they simply double down claiming they didn't implement it hard enough--Cuba/Venezulea I'm looking at you.
