  1. Especially the ones that protect workers. Tory MPs have been accused of “plotting to slash rights at work” after voting down a bid to stop employment protections expiring after Brexit. A government bill is set to ‘sunset’ a raft of laws originally written into UK law from the EU in a ‘Brexit bonfire.’ But they include the right to paid holidays, daily and weekly rest breaks, limits on the working week and maternity rights. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/tories-accused-workers-rights-plot-28568167
  2. And yet another conspiracy theory is born. That it's coming from you, I'm nearly shocked.
  3. As has been previously pointed out, it's not at all established that it was Biden who accessed those documents. Forgotten that already? It's always a risky thing to make an amateur diagnosis of someone else's mental condition. In this case, it may have come back to bite you.
  4. Both statements hold true? It hasn't even been established that it was Biden who accessed these documents.
  5. It would have taken just a bit mental effort for most folks to construe what the those sentences meant at first. For most folks. But since you can't figure what the revised version meant, therefore, when I reply to you in the future, I will attempt to use words of no more than 2 syllables (Sorry about that last word. Is there someone nearby who can help you with it?). As for keeping on topic. It was you who declared that you weren't going to abide by rules that the people who run this country impose. ADD much?
  6. Actually not, It goes to intent. The National Archives negotiated with Trump's people for months before a return was arranged. It turned out that his representative falsely asserted that all documents had been returned. Clearly, Trump knew that he was holding documents that violated the rules and had his people deny it. It was only after further negotiations had failed that the National Archives was called in by the Justice Dept. All Trump had to do was comply with the National Archives request and this matter would never have been assigned to the Justice Dept. It's clear that there's a very strong case against him for obstruction of Justice. Whereas in the Biden case, it's not at all clear that it was Biden who took these documents.
  7. I didn't notice that my voice recognition software decided that "cleaning" was what I meant, not "claiming". Here it is again: "I didn't know that being a guest of the government of Thailand makes one an especially entitled person. It's a good thing you're not claiming that privilege out of a sense of self-entitlement." As for the restrictions on Chinese travelers: I'd go with what epidemiologists recommend. Unlike some who believe that they know better.
  8. I didn't know that being a guest of the government of Thailand makes one an especially entitled person. It's a good thing you're not cleaning that privilege out of a sense of self-entitlement.
  9. Because the vaccine doesn't have to be a perfect match. It may be less effective against hospitalizations and death, but it is still effective.
  10. Maybe it's a case of karma for the huge number of baseless lawsuits that Trump has filed.
  11. Apparently it's a weak spot for Republicans who repeatedly challenge the legitimacy of elections they lose.
  12. Good question? You have any insights into Brazilian law that could help us whether there could be a civil and/or legal case brought against him?
  13. Gee. Odd how you didn't quote this part of what you wrote " There are many other cases anywhere, however, they are not always classified so serious... " I know it's against the rules for others to misleadingly cut a member's quote. Not sure how the rules apply to a member misleadingly editing their own.
  14. Actually, as the Senate Committe headed by Republicans contended in its report, there was plenty there.
  15. As has been explained to you over and over, when this information was released, Giuliani refused to release the data that could have corroborated the factuality of this news. Moreover, the seasoned reporter that the NY Post assigned to write the article about it refused because it was obvious that decent journalistic standards would require that it be extensively investigated before being published. As for Hunter Biden's alleged complaints, we know that other members of the Biden family weren't reluctant to invoke Joe Biden's name to promote their business. That makes them sleazy, but not criminals. 0 evidence that Biden profited from any of their practices. In fact, one email message from Hunter Biden specifically says that his father turned him down flat when approached about taking part in the proposed business venture in China. And, of course, we have no proof that he even approached his father about that apart from Hunter Biden's sayso.
  16. I didn't know that green screen technology was confined to the Ukraine. On the off chance that it isn't, doubts about their location could be raised against any public figure. You got any actual evidence re the prior whereabouts of Zelensky?
  17. Amazing how low some people will stoop to defend a dangerous liar.
  18. And the problem isn't confined to the mideast: Climate change linked to rise in kidney ailments https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/science/climate-change-linked-to-rise-in-kidney-ailments/articleshow/52197656.cms
  19. Not about offense. It's about your unclear writing.
  20. Quite a change from your previous stance: You really think it's likely that they're going to uncover massive amounts of criminality when a seasoned federal prosecutor given carte blanche came up with only one minor criminal conviction and a grand total of 3 cases?
