  1. I will say this, at least the government is dealing with the funding problems instead of the people. And, yes, I feel like the US does indeed have the best care, theoretically.
  2. Good to see that what is probably one of the least or less political institutions, and probably conservative, but not in the GOP conservative sense, do this.
  3. Well, I think consistent with their damage theory in the defamation cases, Dominion was fucked or pretty close to it as an ongoing business as a result of the politicization by the defamation. So it was probably a cheap pickup and not going to be much of an influence going forward.
  4. I think we all agree on that, but it is based more upon recent events, see ana above, than historical.
  5. So, for Comey's arraignment, they brought in a couple of AUSAs from North Carolina. https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-situation--three-thoughts-on-the-comey-arraignment That's bizarre and more evidence that they can't find anyone in ED Va willing to try this case. And Wittes correctly notes that it is bizarre for the defense to be more prepared than the government. One of the benefits of being a plaintiff/prosecutor is that you can and should, really must, get your ducks all in a row before commencing the case. But the big takeaway is that Comey and Fitzgerald appear to be intent on embarrassing the Trump administration and not just by a swift acquittal.
  6. Well, troph's departure was more principled and reasoned than Rex's various fits.
  7. Troph decided that, as a member of the LGBTQ community with a number of posts to that effect along with other dissent from the regime that it was advisable to delete her presence from this forum.
  8. All of those addressed in the Lawfare piece have clear defenses such that the case never would have been brought by a normal US Attorney. But the Lawfare piece also mentions, but does not delve into, a second Norfolk property, which seems to be the subject of the indictment. Fuuuuuck.
  9. What's most ominous about the guard movements to me is that he's slowly ramping up to full-scale mobilization of the military. He doesn't have to order the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to move TNG troops to Chicago or Portland. And he's probably doing the Venezuelan boat bombings with a container full of CIA "troops," not USAF or Army. So he hasn't issued any unlawful orders down the DOD chain of command, he's stayed out of it. But I think he's working up to it.
  10. This guy? Nowai.
  11. That's some sick shit. Yes, Georgetown, and also a confessed sex pest.
  12. Comey pled not guilty yesterday and is going for the vindictive prosecution dismissal, or something similar, in addition to challenging the validity of Halligan's appointment. https://www.bbc.com/news/live/cly14kplv02t There evidently will be a lot of classified documents, so that means a clusterfuck. A lawyer other than Halligan has appeared. Trial currently set for January 5. Judge doesn't want that date to slip and it appears Comey is intent on a swift trial, but we'll see.
  13. Is it just me, or is Ella more attractive this year than prior. She's not a woofer by any stretch, and the highlights don't usually fool me, but I think she's a little slimmer or something.
  14. So is this The movie star, well she crashed her car But everyone said she was beautiful Even without her head
  15. Oh true, I just hate hearnig "Kubik with the kill/point/fuckingwhatever."
  16. I dislike Kubiks.
  17. We do have middles, ladies.
  18. Give em the business, ladies.
  19. Collis' religious liberty clinic sounds frightening, but to his/its credit, they seem to be representing a lot of non-judeo-christian parties.
  20. That is a more academic outgrowth of the Civitas Institute. Collis is a Morm, although I see some of his scholarly work is praised by non-right-wing sources. Regnerus has written some scorchingly anti-LGBTQ stuff. This is a bunch of Nazis. Also, so much for the idea that conservative viewpoints aren't represented at UT.
  21. Not to mention, which is a more clear and present danger at this point? Some kind of Muslim takeover of the USA and the imposition of Sharia law? Or the accretion of undue and unlawful executive power and the unchecked exercise of it? You good with that under a Democratic or Muslim administration @Chopped @Screwed?
  22. You wouldn't know her, she's from Canada.
  23. What evidence do you have that Islam is taking over America, or Europe for that matter? And why are we talking about Muslims when the topic was Sergio?
