"Spying" >The FBI in 2023 sought and obtained data about the senators’ phone use from January 4 through January 7, 2021. That data shows when and to whom a call is made, as well as…

I'd assume that's a typo of "violence or hatred"

The law actually says "anything of value of $5,000 or more". The majority opinion is just arguing in bad faith there

I'd guess that it speaks to the "knew charges were coming" bit to support that they were specifically fleeing the law and not disappearing to escape a bookie or an annoying family …

Although with binary numbers you'd probably want to modify the rules to avoid rolling so many d20s, since you'd need to re-roll them 12/32=37.5% of the time

This reasoning is true of every real number, yet it's been proven that almost all real numbers are absolutely normal and therefore contains every finite sequence of digits

Ironically you only start to see it where you want to see it. Motivated reasoning you agree with is just reasoning
