It's like everyone in gov't is looking for a press release involving this subject.

The important thing is the Constitutional right of the shooter to have the weapons. Founding fathers blood of patriots cold dead hands etc. For those dead thoughts prayers etc, and anyway they should have been somewhere else, no one told them to be there. Maybe they were all "crisis actors" like Fox usually claims; they should change their international marketing slogan to "if you hate America you'll love Fox!" NOTE: the above is sarcasm. Great idea! Won't effect those who could cause it to change, though. At least not at this moment. But yeah, TripAdvisor would be a good place to start it.

I don't get how a known criminal will cultivate a persona that draws attention to himself to his own detriment. In LOS I get it, he had access to a certain high-level pocket. Anyone else remember this guy?

It's a practice known as pimping. Second oldest profession, or so I've heard.

Maybe they can get Cheech & Chong to be their spokestoners.

You're talking about the incident in the car, right? That's the important thing? Hijacking the narrative. Do you work at Fox? She gives 2 hours of testimony about the players and their plotting, and all the focus is on the steering wheel sideshow, literally clown-car stuff. Yeah, sure, we're going to be distracted from the criminal activity by this.

Well, the job of the Secret Service agent is to protect the boss against all threats. If it looks like the boss could be sent to jail for something, lying to prevent that from happening would be within the duties of the job, no? The legal equivalent of "taking a bullet"? When this whole sad circus comes to a proper trial, if the DOJ ever gets around to it AND is not compromised from within, you will see a lot of this sort of reasoning. I'm watching the hearings and I can see some of the hiding places that will come into play: Giuliani was drunk the whole time, can't be held responsible; DT was convinced by Bannon, Flynn and whoever else that he can remain president and believed it to be true, therefore can't be held responsible, and so on. You say this can't happen? Sounds like a variation on the Twinkie defense. If it goes up to the Supreme Court, well, by the time it reaches there it could the 2030s and all this election silliness is passe and presidents are elected by state governors. If there is one legal maneuver DT has learned it is playing for time. Back when George W. was president and the White House was being run by Ms Cheney's father, when Congress tried to redress his actions they were told the VP was not part of the Executive Branch. When they approached it as him being a member of Congress (the VP is "president of the Senate") he told them VP is not part of the Legislative Branch. And he got away with it. I'm hoping his daughter, who I assume has inherited some knowledge of how this slipperiness works, puts it to good use. Personally I never thought I would be putting hope in anyone named Cheney. (Have you noticed she has the ability to sneer as she's speaking, just like daddy?)

I used to have a tradition (in jest, of course) that every 4th I'd have to say something good about the US and something bad about the UK. With BoJo and MMarkel I figure you guys across the pond deserve a break. A good thing about the US: Charmin Ultra-Soft toilet paper available in nearly every supermarket.

Hey, those aren't marijuana dolls! This is a marijuana doll

A country in the throes of an epidemic. The mass idiocy epidemic. Gives me the creeps whenever I see one of these. Big truck. Big flag. Small brain. Oh, and probably a gun somewhere. For those of you who have been out of the country for years, there's a lot of these on the road. The word patriot has been redefined. And then there are the sh_t heels in gov't and media who are provoking all this. And you'll want a nice decal for the tailgate But chin up, a lot of people who have friends/relatives caught up in this are saying they are sick and tired of "this politics stuff." Sometimes it's as easy as changing the channel on television or keeping off of social media. Maybe there will be de-programming groups for them, like there were for the Moonies some years ago. Keep the faith.

Jorma Kaukonen of Jefferson Airplane, and Hot Tuna. And his hopalong buddy Jack Cassidy. And for something acoustic:

You definitely were not here in the 1970s.

"I wasn't going to kill him, I just wanted him to think I would so I waved a loaded gun at him and made threats." Pretty solid defense there. The man fired his gun injuring the motorcyclist and fired further shots in the air. In total four shots were fired Anyone want to bet they find more than one slug in him? But then there must be famous money that goes with the famous name and into brown cloth pockets.

I tried carrots once and I thought I could fly. I went to the window to do it and thank god someone was there to stop me. https://aseannow.com/topic/1262848-woman-posts-warning-they-put-ganja-in-my-soup-causing-an-allergic-reaction/?do=findComment&comment=17422347

Adverse inference. By refusing to answer on the grounds you may incriminate yourself you are implying that you may have committed a crime. By seeking a pardon it means you know you need one, but does not qualify as a confession. In either case this is like the old situation of the police searching you and while they find no controlled substances they do find a packet of rolling papers. This tells them that if they look harder they just might find something. "Mr Flynn, do you believe in the peaceful transfer of power?" "FIFTH!" Myself, I am of little hope. As much as it pains me to say, what hope I have hinges on Liz C. I think she is the impetus behind the hearings, and I suspect she is prodding Benny in the ribs to keep things moving. The Dem politicians seem to have this attitude that victory means losing by a smaller than expected margin. They can learn a lot from the Lincoln Project. Here it is from my favorite Democrat: They fight hard. And we don't fight like that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lincoln_Project Keep the faith, baby.

Any chance of this happening before November 2024? If not, all these "unprecedented actions against a sitting president" can be back in play. Even if he is not back in the WH but another GOP member is then fuggetabou. Unless its Liz C.

Does anyone else remember the infamous passport stamp Malaysia would use that would cause Singapore to deny entry? S uspected H ippie I n T ransit Even though it seems they no longer use it, Occidental guys with long hair can get a hard time from Malaysian authorities for no other reason. I met one US guy who immigration wouldn't let on a flight to mainland Malaysia from the eastern part, the woman at the desk citing all sorts of problems with his passport (one must go through immigration when flying between the two parts of Malaysia, go figure). He simply got on a different line and another agent sent him right through like the rest of the travelers (maybe the woman was jealous of his hair ???? ). Occasionally things from a forgotten era crop up in newspapers like hippies carrying venereal disease, being drug addicts, seducing their daughters, oh, and being communists -- every so often there will be articles about the red menace that you would think were written in 1967 (maybe they were!). A little off-topic but pertinent to liberal attitudes: regardless of the Malaysian gov't's Islamic anti-gay stance, there are a lot of people who appear to be openly gay, especially in the population centers like KL and Penang. I haven't been there in some years, but it looked like Penang was becoming Malaysia's San Francisco; this seemed to start when the city got World Heritage status.

In Oregon USA, where it's easier to find a dispensary than a gas station, there is one set of stores that look like high-end jewelers, all the stuff pre-packaged in elegant little packets and prices are roughly 3x than most other places. And of course the more you pay the better the quality, right? hooch.mp4

Unfortunately I stumbled across the answer to my question. Myanmar to Obtain Pantsir-S1 & Orlan-10E

It's "tin tu mutt." Please use proper Thai in the future.

Hey, that's what I say! (but I use convenience stores, can't ignore Plaid Pantry etc). It's like cosmic or somethi... oops! dropped my bong!

Under the influence of something. Maybe the binge began yesterday and it felt like a year. Romeo blew a fuse?

The Federal gov't should make it a felony to make accusations of any sort of voter monkey business without viable standing. If that person themselves ever ran in an election, even for something like the dogcatcher for Cowsass, Wisconsin, their own electoral history will be opened up for investigation. Sorry folks, "I just know!" doesn't make it. https://www.politico.com/news/2022/06/15/gop-commission-refuses-to-certify-new-mexico-primary-vote-00039771 Miss Vickie's quote sounds a lot like the demands people were making to see Obama's birth certificate because they "don't know who he is." I don't recall hearing similar for DT, W, et al.
