  1. Some of us are having a lot more trouble letting go of a fraudulent political party than others, and admitting how long it has been fraudulent.
  2. Imagine doing that with celestial navigation and no digital computers.
  3. And he's gonna explode the goddamn deficit. And, if you didn't know that already, he'd be happy to tell you, repeatedly.
  4. Yes, and most administrations leave it to Hollywood for all the glory guts bullshit.
  5. That's one of the most cockamamie lawsuits I have ever seen in my life. Makes some of Trump's efforts look sane and grounded. They're suing all defendants in their individual capacities, alone, for violating their civil rights under color of law in violation of 1983.
  6. Well, if it had huge object insertions . . . .
  7. My CHURCH did that when I was in 7th grade.
  8. The whole cult is nonce words. And nonces.
  9. Quite possible, but you'd think the vehicle for that might be a call to Roberts or a letter.
  10. On the judges thing, it might be better characterized as a suit against a Local Rule, or still more accurately, a Standing Order. D. MD. enacted this standing order https://www.mdd.uscourts.gov/sites/mdd/files/Amended 2025-01.pdf That says for detainees seeking habeas corpus, certain rules apply to insure proper names are used, and to give enough time to deal with it on an emergency basis, deportations of habeas petitioners are stayed for two days. Two. Fucking. Days. Such orders come from the Chief Judge of the District, usually with the advice of the other judges. The first authority to undo such a rule would be the Chief Judge of the Circuit sitting over the district, the Fourth Circuit. Then I suppose the Supreme Court, which retains authority over all federal court rules. The government is also asking that all judges of D. MD. ostensibly party to this rule or order be recused from such cases in the future, based apparently on the bias this reflects. Judges get to run their courtrooms. When a set of circumstances, like an administration hot to trot to deport people in a hurry, starts infringing on courtroom order and procedure, judges get to set some rules. I suspect this goes nowhere. Totally embarrassing for the US DOJ. Fucking clown show.
  11. Of course, I never intended to attribute any merit or acumen to her.
  12. She inherited a construction business from her father.
  13. Probably a pretty good sign that they've given up on the FDA approval angle. Or know it isn't viable.
  14. Does he really want to start talking shit about test scores? Like Wecshler? SAT? Against AOC?
  15. Trump wants peace because he thinks it will make him popular. If he thought blowing lots of shit up would make him popular, he'd do that instead. In fact, that's exactly what happened here.
  16. What the former Intel leaders said was that a mysterious laptop, with no digital forensic chain of custody, shows up with a bunch of embarrassing, but not criminally inculpatory information on it has the earmarks of a Russian disinformation campaign. They were, ultimately, wrong. Unlike Fox News and election disinfo and half the other shit they spew, they did not know they were wrong ahead of time and spew it anyway. The only people that knew the Steele Dossier was bullshit were Steele and I guess some of his sources. People were credulous of it, but, again, unlike Fox News, they didn't KNOW it was bullshit before they started spewing. What Fox News routinely does is disinformation, intentionally wrong information. The rest is just being conventionally wrong, something Fox rarely admits to.
  17. Someone read him one of the numerous cease-and-desist letters he receives on a daily basis from lawdogs everywhere. He thought it sounded cool. Kind of like Hegseth and OPSEC.
  18. Doesn't even have to be malicious, really. A blurb about world religion is worthwhile in history/social studies.
  19. *chavs, or chavettes, avoid
  20. You are so cabined into your little world of Chamber of Commerce types that you don't know what's really going on in this country. Christian ZIonism is one of several major factors that makes US elected politicians and their appointees over-deferential to Israel. It is far less some spirit of Christian charity or brotherhood and more the votes and money of AIPAC, Christian Zionists and some other groups.
  21. The next time Trump "looks at" any intelligence will be the first time.
  22. Didn't realize Irma had been elevated to the 5th. She was a long time magistrate in Dallas and good people. Had no idea of her politics, but could have guessed and could have been dead wrong.
  23. Yeah, I get that too, is the RRHoF using the name?
  24. Generally speaking, the 5th Circuit is a bit right of Alito and Thomas. That particular panel, though, was on the liberal end of things.
  25. Over generalization, perhaps, but not wrong. Accurate Christian extremists supporting a bunch of Jewish extremists because the Christian extremists want to accelerate the end of the world Accurate while the Jewish extremists believe that their sky daddy gave them some special dirt along with permission to kill everyone who's already living on that dirt. Accurate a bunch of Muslim extremists pissed off at the Jewish extremists because some magic man floated up to a sky paradise from that piece of dirt, plus, they were already there. Accurate This, and an unquenchable thirst for oil, is what's driving our foreign policy for a big ol' chunk of this little blue dot we all have to share.
