The only actual high speed portion of Acela is in MA, and the time savings from Boston to NYC is a bit more substantial, accordingly.

I managed to snag a $70 round trip ticket from DC to Boston, months in advance, during 2021. Only time I’ll probably ever justify taking it. As a nerd that likes trains, it was fun.

He’s allowed to campaign from prison if convicted, too. Eugene Debs did it, after all. Logistically, I’m not sure how it’d work with a former president. If he’s ever locked up, it’s going to have to be in a supermax, for his own safety. The Unabomber’s old cell in ADX Florence will be the perfect fit for the needs of a former president and fellow Ivy League graduate! But at any rate, there’s no law stopping him from campaigning by mail.

Obama did an extrajudicial killing by drone of Anwar al-Awlaki, a US citizen who was (allegedly) an Islamist stochastic terrorist. Obama also murdered his 16 year old son as collateral damage in the assassination of al-Awlaki by drone. Seems to me there’s laws on the books banning stochastic terrorism if you’re a Muslim. Also if you’re black, see the MOVE bombing and Fred Hampton.

Stochastic terrorism is only legal if you’re a white supremacist or a neo-Nazi.
