How does CBP know where the upload is? Is the uploaded file publicly accessible or would they need another password to even get their hands on it?

So he's not even back on US soil yet? Habeas corpus does not yet apply.

Defending the concept of a constitution-free tyranny zone for foreigners (where US border patrol somehow still has legal authority?) is fashy enough, but it's really freaking bad when you use it to strip an American citizen of the rights their own country affords them.

I regret to inform you that you have woefully underestimated it. The actual retail rate offered to consumers is closer to $2200 US per gallon. Sources: internet-ink.com, cbc.ca. This $14 million fine is only worth like, seven thousand gallons, or less than 200 oil barrels of ink.

One downside of a laterally centered driving position is much worse visibility when overtaking. A centered driving position is good for a track car where the chances of overtaking on the left or right are roughly 50/50, but on the street where the odds are heavily biased one way or the other depending on whether it's a LHD/RHD country, having your driver's seat on the correct side makes it much easier.

The vast majority of voters in any party want the opposite of that but are told to vote for "the lesser of two evils" which admits to an inherently evil system.

This is only possible because the US has first-past-the-post elections, a clunky and primitive voting method that can enable this situation. Moving to more advanced voting methods like ranked choice or STAR voting prevents a two-party stranglehold from forming.
