Has there been proof of anything more than someone fronting a bill and getting reimbursed later?
I also am not sure how that relates to Trump getting a fair RICO trial. Like seriously why the fuck does it even matter?
Not that I've seen on the first question and agree with you on the second. At least not now. Let the Georgia bar take it up or let the county start an ethics investigation.
If Trump can drag out cases for years, Fauni should be able to drag out hers as well.

why would anyone think you believe she did nothing wrong?
I guess for the same kind of reasons that anyone on this board would accuse someone of making an argument that "she did nothing wrong".

I'm not suggesting she join a convent, but she can't take a break from the nookie for the sake of justice?
I mean, the issue are the trips and the expenses associated with those trips. It seems to me a reasonable compromise is to fuck in the supply closet after hours and start taking trips after the case is over.

Who the fuck is arguing it isn't a bad look?
The issue now is whether it affects the prosecution of the case.
No way it does or should.

Plus, I though she kinda kicked ass in her testimony. She kind of beat the shit out of her questioners. That's tough to do.

Well, she hired someone who she was about to fuck.
That's a big difference.

This struck me.
All of politics today is geared to the message: step back TO the ledge.

Comfort Crisis by Michael Easter (2021)
I thought one of the better books on the current fitness/mindfulness etc. zeitgeist. I thought the parts on nutrition and contemplation of death were particularly good nuggets, if covered move fully elsewhere.

I like that theory, wildcat, but I don't think it gives enough credence to the fact that Dems in recent decades just can't make a fucking decision. They agonize and move slowly while the GOP shoots first and lawyers up second.
I've got some relatives who are hard shell liberals who work in DC. Working under the GOP is a breeze they say, because the republicans just make a decision and everyone moves on. The Dems fuck around with 20 policy preogatives and nothing gets done.
You're mostly right but Dem pokiness adds insult to injury.

Fuck. Looks like I'm going to have to be defending Allred the next few months.
I think the book "Dress for Success" came out a fuck long time ago. Anyway, it basically said minorities should always wear conservative suits.
Allred is the epitome of that playbook. He's a black man that most whites are comfortable with.
I don't begrudge him sticking to that playbook. He's not going to get in the dirt, like Gutierrez will. And that's no fucking fun, but neither is rope-a-dope.
The progressive angry Hispanic or Hispanic wannabee hasn't worked over the last couple of cycles for state wide office.
When Allred beat Pete Sessions, there were plenty of people in our district who thought he was too milktoast, but miltoast still tastes better than horseshit, and I guess that's the longshot play. Especially when the dems are going to show up to vote against Trump.

A black Democrat is not going to defeat an incumbent white male GOP Senator.
He's a faux Metsican.

Allred's style and approach are perfect -- perfect - for suburban Texas. Including the siding with the GOP now and again.
We'll find out if that works out on the state level.
(I wish he had played for the Pokes or whoever the Oilers became. I especially wish he hunted and kilt animals.)

Just heard a short discussion (Houston Chronicle) with Allred and Roland Gutierrez. Gutierrez sounded pretty good I thought. They didn't talk guns, but this should be the absolute standard profile for any Texan trying for a statewide office.
As a gun owner and an avid hunter and fisherman, Gutierrez said he does not want to take away anybody’s guns, but he doesn’t want AR-15’s to be sold anymore.
“I own a lot of guns, and I believe in the Second Amendment, but I saw and continue to see what is happening across this country,” he said. “In Uvalde, I saw exactly what that weapon did to those babies. It is not something I want to see any parent have to live through again. We know it continues to happen. We have a lot of work to do in this country.”

You're being too kind, dude. It's a cloying slog but it does feature the song Jessica.

That's partly true, but it isn't all true. People always think something's all true.

JHC. I'm watching the Fulton County case on CNN right now. I don't see how you lawyers on here can do this for a living. Arguing every single point back and forth. Patience is a virtue I wasn't blessed with. I know this is important stuff being argued, but it would make me want to open up a vein.
Look, if I argue with you, I must take up a contrary position.

Yeah, the sooner rather than later sounds right. I've got a double bridge due to some amazingly crazy shit my teeth were doing in my younger years (permanent tooth shooting horizontally across the roots of two other teeth) and now one of the "foundation" teeth needed a root canal. When I asked the dentist if I'm going to need a couple of implants eventually, he said that might be a challenge because the bone has receded over the area of the bridge.
Since your brother in law is 55, he might want to look for the package senior deal where you get dental implants, prostate TURP surgery, a free stent, and one free lumbar discectomy if you promise to stick with Spectrum for at least three years.

Will try here instead of starting another thread.
Can anyone recommend a solid budget rucking pack? I'm really just looking for a solid plate holder system pack that holds only plates or other weight system, but I'd also look for a relatively small pack that have removable plates that I can use to store a few things if I wanted to use it as a small day pack. But really, would be happy with just a plate system that can hold a phone and wallet.
I do lots of walking and may as well put some weight on it. I've had some back issues so I want to start with relatively light weights.
Goruck just seems a bit pricey, both for packs and plates.

True story, one time I was walking through the Everglades and got attacked by a panther, a black bear, a crocodile, and a 12-foot python all at the same time. After I was done I had a couple pairs of new boots, an area rug, and some rather intoxicating cologne.
Literally all of your new stuff is illegal in the US and about 8 other countries.
