Now it’s time to get its equivalents passed in the other 49 states…
When Republicans control most of the state legislatures?

How do I parse this sentence?
Is it
“bars any ((state law enforcement agency) or (other investigative entity))”

Dude, they only pretend to love small business. Their idea of small is only seven owners, like WalMart.
Do a file recovery for deleted files and see if you can find any info. You’ll probably have to mount it as an external drive on another machine, and it’ll have to be mac-specific recovery software.
