  1. He could only hope to look that good.
  2. ^^^ This. An amoral psychopath.
  3. This is fucking insane. Authoritarian erasure of a population is here. It's not hypothetical or in the works, it's here. If you believe in a free society, it's high time to start speaking out and doing everything you can. No doubt more states including our own backwater state are next. And more targeted groups are being queued up because the guardrails are failing.
  4. Seems odd for the judge to release this evidence before it's a matter of public record in the trial (at punishment). It's still a potential issue for appeal/motion for new sentencing. Ah well guess I should just enjoy the Abbott depantsing. Abbott in a sane world: "New information has come to light and I have decided that the use of my pardon power in this case is not appropriate at this particular juncture." Real Abbott: Insulates self and never answers any questions ever, can either do nothing or proceed with pardon while still answering no questions, and no consequences for him either way.
  5. is this punishment evidence ? Why is the judge releasing this or is this legally imprecise journalism?
  6. Wow. And I wouldn't doubt that a major part of his appeal will be based on the admission of the extraneous (other "bad act") evidence under the rules of evidence -- rule 404 and then 403
  7. If you're referring to me, you've got three errors in your gotcha. People who argue this type of farming is necessary to survival and appropriate aren't worth arguing with.
  8. So without factory farming, billions starve? Look around at your fellow Americans and consider whether mixing in a salad instead of daily bbq and burgers might be a good thing.
  9. Disgusting. No animal, even livestock, should live (or die) that way. Fuck factory farming/feed lots/large-scale dairy. Fucking cruel.
  10. I don't know if anyone is interested but me... but this is a very thorough and brutal take-down of Kaczmarek's decision, which answered basically all of my questions. https://adamunikowsky.substack.com/p/mifepristone-and-the-rule-of-law-9c4 Now, the Fifth Circuit (2-1) has upheld all restrictions on the drug from before they were loosened several years ago (guess they couldn't avoid ruling that the statute of limitations expired to challenge original FDA approval) and in doing so, rubber stamped the insane finding of plaintiff standing, bloviating on the risks of the drug, etc. Read Unikowsky's analysis -- he clerked for Scalia-- and you get even more outraged that our federal judiciary has been taken over by activist nut jobs who will twist the law well past the breaking point to get what they want. He doesn't say that. He doesn't have to.
  11. Anything I Don't Like is Neo-Marxist by Ron DuhSantis
  12. Legal eagles -- is there any way that SCOTUS (assuming they ignore the glaring standing problem) doesn't uphold Kaczmaryk based on the plain language of the Comstock Act? And why the f didn't anyone move to repeal that bullshit? Talk me down from the ledge plz?
  13. Sure, I benefited. My privilege is real, but it's not as whole as that of the dominant group. The party in power here would just as soon see me dead, perhaps even celebrate it. Their policies show that. And I don't have it nearly as bad as some.
  14. Who's this "we?" You got a mouse in your pocket? (says the member of two increasingly shit-on marginalized groups)
  15. That's right, there is no right of self-defense in Texas. JFC these mendacious pieces of shit that short-circuit the brains of the rubes. It ought to be criminal.
  16. Florida's gonna have some dirty mansions
  17. The whole premise that the plaintiffs have standing is ludicrous to me. And from the portion I read on standing, Kaczmaryk says (1) there's no conflict of interest here like there would be if, say, a woman sues her "abortionist" (he repeatedly uses the term abortionist, which I guess Alito used too). And (2) Evidence shows women don't have a close, or even any, doctor-patient relationship with their abortionist, so these plaintiffs are certainly closer to the issue than that. Because plaintiffs provide post-abortion care -- obviously a more solid doctor-patient relationship. Absolute batshit.
  18. [Kavanaugh] So what's wrong with that?? [Kavanaugh]
  19. that and 50% of eligible voters don't bother to vote, mostly concentrated in our cities
  20. if there's any doubt left about her being batshit, they were "vacationing in Mississippi" when contacted by police [shudder]
  21. yes but I'm gonna need more confirmation than a tweet starting with "word on the street is..." and two replies
  22. oh come on, like absolutely anything would ever come of that. Great job by Trump of destroying confidence in the legal system for "both sides"
  23. Side note. It's interesting -- well, not really -- that the right seizes on the shooter's apparently being transgender, but not a peep about the reported autism. Not one. The Sandy Hook shooter was autistic as well, maybe others too. Which of course, matters not for shit because the only one single thing consistent in every single school shooting is the fucking guns designed to kill shit tons of people.
  24. IIRC, that community is heavy on law enforcement/border patrol dudes and their families. Mix in the social conservatism of rural Hispanics and I guess you're at 60% for Abbott. Still fucking insane though. In addition to Israel, France likes to strike and burn shit when they're upset, like with Macron raising the retirement age. I agree we need some kind of national uprising in this country, particularly since the minority view has gotten entrenched into power through gerrymandering, SCOTUS/judiciary shenanigans, and the Senate. If the majority can't vote our way out of this, they leave us little choice....
