Well certainly you were. It conveniently leaves out the fucked up policies of your group, if that's your line. And as we all know, if you voted for someone, you back ALL of their policies. You can say it. You are OK with kids in cages. You voted for it, it makes you hard. Right? That's how this works, no?
I actually voted Romney in 2012 for what it's worth lmao

Thank you for reminding me that political parties are only about 1 issue. I had forgotten. Not happy that Trump carried over kids in cages from your boy Obama, and expanded on it, but that happened long after any votes were cast. Feel free to link me to Abbotts "shooting immigrants" policy, and I'll give it a read.
I was more talking about the thousands of brown foreign children being subjected to our states horrific foster care system after being forcibly separated from their parents that they were traveling with. Which is a uniquely trumpian and abbott policy. Along with the theft of billions of our tax dollars to pay for a shitty and already decaying wall through some of our states most beautiful nature

You voted for trump and abbott despite their family separation policy and child concentration camps, and the demonization of brown people coming near our border. Please continue doing your Johnny Sack impression and tell us how many hatian orphanages you donate to

Reading the article, it seems like the prosecution didn't have any other evidence that May (the defendant) set the fire, and generally had very few facts to support sending a 20 year old to prison for life

Anyone helping him delay things is complicit. I would totally be sympathetic if he had legitimate arguments. I'm completely in favor of due process and I don't like the government running over people. This is not that situation. We know who and what we're dealing with here. Delay for the sake of delay is wrong, and judges shouldn't tolerate it ever.
This exactly. Trump's arguments have not had any substance or actual grievance behind them. And any other citizen trying his shit would not get past thinking about it, and yet we must treat everything trump says with UTMOST(!!!) sincerity because slippery slope? Give me a fucking break, it's absurd to paint my frustration as mere "wanting to skip to conviction". I want to get to fucking criminal trial. With evidence. For fucking ONCE in trump's miserable awful goddamn existence.
Twice himself said he'd be completely nonplussed with nothing happening to trump, this is all 3rd person academics to him I guess. There's no other person in the country that would be able to get away with a similar set of actions, but we need to be suspicious of prosecuting this man who has transparently tried to seize power? Fuck outta here

The Bible is clear, in both Old Testament and New Testament, that homosexuality is sin. Just like with any other sin…we are to repent.
1 Corinthians 6:9-11 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived! The sexually immoral, idolaters, adulterers, passive homosexual partners, practicing homosexuals, thieves, the greedy, drunkards, the verbally abusive, and swindlers will not inherit the kingdom of God. Some of you once lived this way. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
Yes, we know that Paul hated the gays and wanted women to know their place. Try to keep up champ

But she is clearly not so beholden to Trump that she would do anything to protect him. Or maybe she is just sucks at it.
Aw shucks, what reason would a lifetime appointed udge with little to no prior experience be beholden to trump in any way? You're right, it's more likely that she just sucks at it.
Which means that trump is directly abusing the justice system to fill courts with dogshit judges while president, and then as a citizen shop all of his cases to their courts to exploit their shittiness as another delaying tactic

It's funny seeing the lawyers tell me I'm overreacting to all these specious legal filings because the courts will OBVIOUSLY call bullshit on them and treat them appropriately. It's like y'all weren't paying attention during the decades long assault on Roe made up by a bunch of specious legal filings and unconstitutional law, that was all bullshit up until the supreme court decided that they were no longer bound by precedent while taking aim at the civil progess of the Warren court.
We've seen this pattern before between the American right and the judicial system. It's happening again now. And it'll succeed because y'all think it's too preposterous to succeed.

While I get the frustration, there is essentially no delay anymore. The 11th Circuit took that option away from Trump. This is just a sideshow. He may have intended to delay the investigation, but instead he has caught himself if a monumental waste of his time and money that just creates opportunities for him to incriminate himself.
Great, the circuit court got it right this time! Let's hope they continue to correctly handle all the bullshit that trump's menagerie of judges is inputting into the justice system.
I don't think our judicial system is going to bat a thousand. Shit is Calvinball depending on the court and panel of judges you get.

Tell us how this is breaking how the law works.
Well in most cases, a judge would require a petitioner to back their claims with evidence. Cannon has decided this step is optional for trump, and future courts either must treat that assertion equally or go through a long process to overturn that "fact". Since district judges are supposed to be fact finders and all that and our system is set up with that inherent trust which is being exploited by trump and cannon to delay and obstruct this criminal investigation

Fortunate for trump that he's got cannon in his pocket to do exactly that and throw up every procedural delay that a district judge can to further deny justice from the American people. Doesn't make a shit if dearie won't tolerate it, cannon will overrule him and allow it
It'd be one thing if trump were raising genuine issues in his appeals and filings. But he's not. It's completely specious and farcical. And yet you think that it's unreasonable and impatient to be frustrated and concerned by these completely fabricated delays?
As it stands, district judge cannon can do whatever the fuck she wants until removed, and it's up to the court system to bat a thousand to beat her and trump's delaying effort. Because otherwise any possible loose thread will be exploited in bad faith (just like we're seeing now) to further delay things and run the clock. It doesn't matter if trump has no evidence to back his claims, cannon (and you in this thread lol) will treat them as legally salient and incredibly important filings, despite being filled with zero actual content that's supported by more than rhetoric.
I know that this is but one case and one judge, but it just takes one of these instances to completely break the way the law works. And we're seeing it in action right now.

i know what you mean, and it's a common sentiment, but the church is the bride of Christ of which He is the head.
On the other hand, I'm pretty the institution currently known as "the church" isn't what Jesus was talking about, and probably more towards the Matthew 18 version of "the church" as "where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them". The big building perpetually in need of a new roof and worrying about hiring the right worship band isn't what the faith is meant to be focused on.
Shows like the righteous gemstones do so well because of how stark the contrast is between message and action for "Christianity" generally right now

If you closely watch any legal proceeding, a trial, a hearing, etc. as we're doing to these things, it's a whipsaw, even for the lawyers participating. And having a rooting interest in the outcome makes it that much worse.
Lawyers trying a case have to listen to the other side, almost uninterrupted, for hours and days. it can kind of beat you down and you feel like you're losing, Then you get your turn, and it's quite the opposite. Euphoric. We just fucking kicked their ass. The truth lies somewhere in the middle, and hopefully closer to your view than not.
It's a very bipolar experience, except maybe in something like the Alex Jones trials. Those kind of nonstop asswhippings of the opponent are rare. Even when the "opponent" is a clear piece of shit, like Alex Jones, it's a really special case where they fuck it up that bad.
So, it's up, it's down, it's a lot of "woohoo" and "aw fuck." Winning and losing battles before you win the war. And so many times, the win comes in a way you never originally envisioned and might momentarily want to call a loss or a Pyrrhic victory.
So, as a lawyer, you learn not to get too wrapped up in the little victories and setbacks along the way and keep moving toward the end goal.
This is the legal equivalent of "yeah I know we lost to Kansas last year, but we're gonna win the chip this year!" You're banking on a judicial system that isn't beholden to trump and isn't calvinball. That it's even a question is a major problem. That this mere citizen is so more equal then everyone else to get so much special treatment IS the problem my dude.
What's the end goal? Justice for trump's crimes? By the time he's done delaying, he'll be dead or the statute of limitations will have ran and the legal system will get pantsed by trump again. And you'll have an explanation and tuttut for everyone who's rightfully concerned with our democracy and justice system kowtowing to a fascist demagogue

Well, be glad they’re not propagating.
With recent website moderation laws that our very fine state passed and that were upheld by the 5th circuit... It could become much harder (and literally illegal) to put the kibosh on these sick people spreading their ideas to uncritical and angry chuds across the internet on your website or message board. I'll be glad when they're not propagating, but it's not time to break out the bubbly. These sick fuckers aren't going to just be wished away.

Lithium batteries are on the clock. Solid state alternatives are already in testing.
Super capacitors are another interesting angle on this too. Much faster charge/discharge cycles, and graphine/graphite are a hell of a lot easier to source than lithium

this shouldn't be a thing.
Turns out that cutting regulations just to cut regulations may lead to a bad time
QuoteChanging insurance rules known as Solvency II that were inherited from the European Union is seen by the government as a key Brexit “dividend” for Britain’s financial industry.
Jacob Rees-Mogg, the Brexit opportunities minister, has called for a rewriting of EU financial rules to trigger an “investment big bang” in Britain powered by the City of London.

I have no clue who sabotaged the pipeline but if it was the Russian government, then why didn't Putin just say "FU, I'm turning off the tap."? It's not like another country was going to commander the origin point in Russia and take over Russian NG operations. Really weird situation.
Yeah but doing it this way churns up more mud and muck that can be used in the media battle to distract from more inconvenient domestic narratives. After the last half decade it's a pretty familiar tactic, at least when the state and its media apparatus are coordinated

I just have a problem with it calling itself "full self driving beta". It's nowhere near close to ready for fully autonomous drive, and it's ridiculous that they're charging people five figures for the privilege of being a guinea pig
