  1. Of course it doesn’t. Nobody on here is saying Biden is perfect. But anybody who equates Biden’s failings to Trump’s vapid, delusional, treacherous bullshit if a fucking idiot.
  2. Same thing could be said about the occupation of the Sudetenland. They say violence is never the answer. They are wrong. Sometimes violence is the best response. Allowing terrorists to shutdown the democratic process and then face zero repercussions is worse than violent escalation. It ensures they will be back. Violent escalation is why we have cops and military. This wasn't some fucking park that protestors were occupying.
  3. Correct. I don't want them removed, I want them detained, charged, convicted, and sentenced to prison. They need to stop playing. And how the fuck does the Capitol get breached? For fuck's sake, every podunk city hall got emergency security measures after 911. Are there not hardened doors, either visible or pocketed? The only way this makes sense if someone literally left the door open for them.
  4. Yep. And they would vote against any politician who voted for the passenger bill of rights, because it's socialist.
  5. Yep. NE-2 was gerrymandered in 2008 after Obama won. It will almost certainly be again. I wouldn't be surprised if it goes to a winner-takes-all format. They tried that after 2008, but we had a bad-ass State Senator filibuster it, and there really wasn't the political will to fight him on it. There were enough Republicans in the base who felt having some attention on Omaha was a good thing, and without the split, no candidates are going to come to Nebraska. But, that means prioritizing local concerns over national party goals. I don't see local concerns winning out this time.
  6. Well, that's Brad thinks. I'm sure that by the end of the week the Trumpkins will have proven that he has a brother, an accountant and a heffalump working for the Chinese intelligence agency that developed smallpox.
  7. It makes for a good holiday movie.
  8. I'm guessing that wouldn't be the first time Sidney thought she was on a spaceship.
  9. Um, ok. I’m down with that.
  10. Like, totally, fur sure.
  11. Seriously? I grew up in the 80s. The Outsiders was mainstream. I'm pretty sure every group of kids had someone who was trying to make "Pony Boy" stick as a nickname. It was directed by Coppola. I don't care how much it grossed.
  12. I imagine there are a lot of Serbians asking “what the fuck did we do?” right now.
  13. Seriously fucking jealous. My Chicagoland experience was three years in Joliet. Not nearly as cool.
  14. On the Nebraska AG's site, there is a form where you can report complaints that you want his office to investigate. I asked that they arrest the Nebraska AG for theft of State property. I don't know if education can reverse the damage, but I know damn well that defunding public schools is extremely dangerous. Fuck school vouchers. Fuck state efforts reducing funding for higher education. I look at those initiatives with an entirely different lens now.
  15. No man, they just the credit card to verify your age.
  16. And it gives the people supporting her in the state a reason to keep returning her.
  17. Here's the thing about Trump: if you look at any time he declared bankruptcy, he was claiming that it wasn't going to happen up until the moment that it did. He's never going to publicly concede the inevitable. But, he still signed the papers in the end.
  18. The lawsuit is fucked up for multiple reasons. Obviously, there is the question of standing and states' right - "the law". Obviously there is the fact that the basis for the challenge lacks any compelling evidence - "the facts". But something I think what is being under-appreciated is how fucked up it is that the official state governments are using not only the tax dollars, but the authority, of the state to pursue a purely political endeavor. This is not fighting for water rights for all Texans, or even a partisan policy issue like abortion rights. This is purely an attempt to install a political ally, and using the state government to do so. It is extremely similar to what Trump got impeached for - using the government's funds and position for purely political gain. It is corruption, right out in the open.
  19. I don't remember that one. But, it's okay to be a whore, as long as your father-in-law is your client. (Genesis 38:12 through 28)
  20. I'd talk shit, but I assume Nebraska will join the lawsuit in the next 24 hours. But, this does allow them to actually introduce evidence at the SC level, right?
  21. There was actually some sort of unknown there. If 2000 was a tightrope walker juggling lit torches high above the ground, 2020 has been a group of performance artists smearing feces on themselves while singing God Bless America. 2000 was "what's going to happen next?" 2020 is "what the fuck is this?"
  22. The second amendment is now a greater threat to democracy than a safeguard to protect it.
  23. This thread moves fast, so maybe it's already been addressed, but TwiceHorn's guess is correct. She sent sex videos to her boyfriend's ex-wife. She is a naughty girl. classy
  24. Calling Epoch Times a far-right media network is missing a good part of the story. Epoch Times is the associated with Fulan Gong, a religious movement which has been persecuted by the Chinese government. It was started by a Fulan Gong adherent, and is basically the anti-Chicom Chinese paper. Do you remember those Iraqi dissidents who manipulated the US government into invading Iraq? Well, it's like that, only with a little bit of cultish doomsday appeal thrown in for good measure. This NBC article is interesting.
