  1. Right wing shout down crew still out in full force I see. Don't see how any American can take issue with wanting the full report released. Your side especially, since it you think it clears Trump, even though Mueller/Barr expressly said it doesn't.
  2. Roger Stone is currently on trial for coordinating with Wikileaks and Guccifer 2.0. The case is directly linked to the IRA hacking case. Stone wasn't officially a campaign official, so Barr's nuanced statement yesterday says nothing about Stone. Let's see the report before we make sweeping conclusions.
  3. Lots of pages of talk about a report that very few people, none posting on here, have actually seen. Congress needs to get the report and Mueller before them ASAP.
  4. Slow your roll gents, we need to see the report.
  5. Chill the fuck out y'all. Nobody knows what is in the report until we actually see the report. Ken Dilanian's DOJ source has been wrong repeatedly for months.
  6. Immediately if politically possible. Trump has done incalculable and irreparable damage to the United States and continues to do so on a daily basis. Pence would stop most of the bleeding.
  7. ^This. Barr is there, specifically because he is a fixer. He has a track record of covering up crimes for GOP presidents already. I don't know why anyone expects this to be any different. https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2019-01-10/attorney-general-william-barr-used-pardons-to-protect-president The only good possibility is this is so bad, Barr will not be able to look the other way. That's not a lot to hang your hat on. Even then, he will contain the fallout for the rest of the GOP. That's what he's there for.
  8. Kind of like Zavala does, but Meadows and Jordan somehow have power.
  9. Abramson on things still outstanding and why he doesn't think Mueller is done yet. It's long, but worth reading. I'm only going to post the first few. Still a lot of unfinished business. I don't think Mueller is going to have time to finish all of these before he fires off a big salvo though. This is still years worth of work in a normal, functional system. It will be far too late, if it isn't already.
  10. Not every day, but frequently. The feedlot is almost as large as TCEH's campus, but the cows get a better education.
  11. It depends the direction the wind is blowing. There is a giant feedlot SE of town right off 84. If the wind is blowing from the east, Lubbock smells like pigmeat posts.
  12. https://www.reddit.com/r/Lubbock/comments/2obp5y/why_does_it_smell_like_cow_shit/ https://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/article/Lubbock-feedlot-tries-to-corral-that-cattle-odor-1936592.php https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g56208-d4742699-r314070363-Holiday_Inn_Express_Lubbock_South-Lubbock_Texas.html
  13. Fuck off with that bullshit false equivalency. A few parts of Austin, specifically areas around 6th Street smell like transient piss. Right by I35 and Mopac, Austin may smell like exhaust fumes. ALL of Lubbock smells like cow shit.
  14. Lulz. Y'all are the ones trying to tell us Lubbock isn't that bad. This is a really stupid argument, even for TCEH. Austin doesn't reek of cow shit. There isn't even a reason to get into the hundreds of other reasons Austin is better.
  15. Oh, I know. Just putting the facts on this thread for when the usual suspects start trying to defend Tucker. The post is not for them, they are lost. That post was for anyone else who didn't know the whole story. I remembered some of the details and googled the others. Fact: Jeffs was accused of child rape when Tucker defended him.
  16. In both 2006 and 2009, Tucker defended Warren Jeffs by saying he'd only facilitated rape, not actually done it himself, as if that's a defense. Jeffs was the "prophet" of the FLDS church and his followers believe he was speaking with God's voice. If they disobey Jeffs, they disobey God and are risking their souls. Jeffs also expelled members and confiscated their property if they disobeyed him. He is directly responsible for the rapes, just as much as if he'd held the girl down during the act. At the time of Tucker's 2006 comments, there were multiple allegations Jeffs raped underage girls himself, as well as facilitated it by forcing children to marry much older men, but he had not yet been charged with raping children himself. Perhaps Tucker was so poorly informed, he hadn't seen these accusations, but that is a poor excuse considering it was his job to know the news. Even giving him the benefit of the doubt for his 2006 comments, Tucker's 2009 comments are both indefensible and completely ignorant. Jeffs was charged with child rape in two states at the time of Tucker's comments.
  17. Gorscuch maybe not, but Kavanaugh is a fucking toadie and will do whatever is in the GOP's best interests. That's why he was selected and why the GOP was willing to let a perjuring piece of shit on the Supreme Court. You know that just as well as the rest of us, but can continue to pretend otherwise if that floats your boat.
  18. This is the stupidest timeline. Trump has a ton of hand movement when he talks. He also has unwanted hand movement when he grabs them by the pussy. Also, should Trump really be talking about hands? Beto's hands are proportional and he should tell the short-fingered vulgarian to go finger himself if he can reach that far around his fat ass.
  19. He'll veto it. Let's hope it helps the senators grow some spine. I'm not optimistic.
  20. Senate voting on it now. 7 Republicans apparently oppose. Trump says he'll veto it.
  21. This is awesome. "Bob Mueller is more Republican than you've been on your best day." Gaetz can't even respond, because it's true.
  22. Golden cage is a good term for it. I've been referring to it as Caesar syndrome. People make a big deal over Caesar choosing to cross the Rubicon with his army, but he would have been tried and convicted in Rome if he returned without the army. With a little study of his character, there isn't much of a choice. When put in that situation, Julius Caesar would always choose to save himself while getting revenge on his enemies. Trump is far more repugnant, selfish and narcissistic than Caesar. Trump will make the same choice if he is allowed to.
