No. That’s a ridiculous conclusion.

NYS law exempts extreme drunkenness. The law was written this way to avoid having to prosecute everyone for drinking and then having sex.

Pcq la réalité c'est que le discours sur l'inhumanité de la carceralisation il est toujours là quand ça les concerne alors qu'ils n'y vont jamais et ça justifie qu'ils en soient exempts

When he's not busy trying to steal Albanian islands for luxury resorts, Jared Kushner moonlights as Trump's lead negotiator for Gaza.

He took the job as a "volunteer," which conveniently exempts him from the financial disclosures an actual government official owes the public.

I love how The Atlantic exempts certain arguments from editors and fact checkers. "Boom for shop-class specialists" is, ahem, a stretch. Those fields are anemic except for construction, where it's at least been growing since early 2021 but nothing like the actual "booms" of the 1990s & 2010s.

Dems need to call out the Trump idiocracy. He falsely claimed the world tariffed & was unfair to the US, that his tariffs were reciprocal. Canada had 0 tariffs on US. Wants USMCA gone as it exempts 94% of his tariffs, that are also on Americans not Canada. SCOTUS confirmed he broke laws & agreements

it’s “Bush declares war but exempts his 20-year-old daughters from serving” but for public intellectuals

like even if trade school is way to get more stable employment, there’s still the backdrop of elites thinking that the people are too educated

Anyone have Navy Federal Credit Union for their mortgage? I received a notice my hazard insurance, property taxes would be increasing some $800. Funny as Michigan exempts disabled Veterans Homesteads for their homes. Even funnier as I have hazard insurance (home insurance)-not from NFCU?

Futures Trading Taxes: What Every Trader Needs to Know
Futures Trading Taxes: What Every Trader Needs to Know Understanding the Section 1256 Contract Designation The Internal Revenue Service classifies most futures contracts as Section 1256 contracts, a designation that fundamentally shapes how traders report gains and losses. Regulated futures contracts, foreign currency contracts, non-equity options, and dealer equity options all fall under this umbrella. This classification matters because it exempts futures from the wash sale rules that plague stock traders and grants access to the favorable 60/40 tax treatment.

I get you dig this bill, @robinsonmeyer.bsky.social. And the cost provision strikes me as a good, if inadequate standing alone, provision. But this bill also exempts from federal environmental review natural gas pipelines used to fuel data center and other gas-fired power generation.

Braverman wrote "For Englishness to mean something substantial, it must be rooted in ancestry, heritage, and, yes, ethnicity – not just residence or fluency"

Beyond self-interest, not clear why she'd oppose "For Britishness to mean something ... it must be rooted in ancestry + yes, ethnicity"

astonishing to see them file suit over this. it exempts 100s of thousands of Portlanders from the tax, while raising it a bit ($15 for the year) on those with the most ability to pay. it would be a shame if council had a hearing on the Clean and Safe ESD rates and how those have been hiked > 10%

Actually, rich people stay rich by spending money on stuff they can sell for more money than they spent, and that exempts them from paying taxes, like art

Remember when Martha Stewart went to jail for insider trading? I do. Trump and his minions are using knowledge of decisions being made to buy low and sell high, and unload stocks before we find out what's coming. This damages your retirement.
