Would a Buddhist bluff at poker?

(They say yes, bluffing in poker is fine, but false shit talking/"you should fold because my hand is so much better trust me!" is perhaps to be avoided.)

Maybe not a warrant, and IANAL, but government agencies aren't necessarily at liberty to share information amongst themselves. For instance, IRS needs a court order to share returns with law enforcement (IRC Section 6103(i)(1)).

But yeah...this seems like maybe not a super great solution...

Am I traveling with a fixed per diem, or do I need to submit receipts/costs for reimbursements?

Totally unscientific observation, but it seems that at airports they rarely ask if you want a receipt, and just assume that you do


which makes sense in the context of business travel.

I think it's a reference to the vice presidential debate with Pence in 2020: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/kamala-harris-mr-vice-president-pence-interruptions/

Could be wrong though.

No doubt in my mind.

There were stories going around about how Trump claimed to have been in an emergency helicopter landing with Willie Brown, the (Black) former mayor of San Francisco. Willie Brown denied this.

So...I actually think the headline makes sense, and is kinda funny, but the context is definitely important


Trump confuses a short Black politician from SF with a tall Black politician from LA.

if the Democrats truly understood the minimum wage would be $20 or more

In Democrat-controlled California, the minimum wage for fast food workers is $20: https://www.dir.ca.gov/dlse/minimum_wage.htm
