Rubbish, several House reps in NY are Republican. The notion that unbiased jurors can't be found is self evidently false.

So, leave her to rot in a country which we are at war with? Or take whatever deal we can get? The US had already judged Bout as not being a security threat any longer. At some point you do need to stop not believing any mainstream media.

I'm out until macroeconomic factors favour investment. That is, inflation going down and economic stimulus applied together with monetary growth. Price is not a determinant for me.

There's a crypto forum.

There's a crypto forum for this.

The German police have said they expect many more arrests. I don't know what larpers are.

Incorrect. A hearing is set for Friday, when Howell will consider whether to hold Trump and his post-presidency office in contempt of court.

Yet another Putin war crime. Russian forces have installed multiple rocket launchers at Ukraine’s shut-down Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, Ukrainian officials claimed Thursday, raising fears Europe’s largest atomic power station could be used as a base to fire on Ukrainian territory and heightening radiation dangers. https://apnews.com/article/russia-ukraine-putin-government-and-politics-db24e22048b3c82746bc9beced967f7a?utm_source=homepage&utm_medium=TopNews&utm_campaign=position_03

I'd prefer to wait and see just why the FBI haven't pressed charges and why Musk has not proceeded with his big reveal. I think that's the reasonable approach rather than sharpening the pitchforks.

Over 50. The Germans are just making this stuff up? The fascists lost bigly this time.

All the cards were held by Russia. The US tried hard to get Russia agree to release others, they got no traction. It was Griner or nobody. That has been made crystal clear by Blinken.,

Who could it be is baseless speculation until proved. Who else could santa be except a person who lives at the north pole?

Just unsupported right wing talking points from a newspaper with a low reputation for reliability and truth. Why can't you produce evidence, not opinion? You just come across as a wing nut when you can't debate in good faith.

Even in Russia sentences like that are not handed out for that quantity. She was a political prisoner. If they'd given her a a few months or a suspended sentence as is typical I'd say let her do the time.

Your link to support your claim that "the big guy" was Joe Biden is where?

Do the popping heads here really think Griner should spend the next 9 years in a Russian concentration camp? Is this the level of hate round here? To be clear, Blinken said this wasn't about choice. It was Griner or nobody. I have no sympathy for what Griner did, especially because the Sate Dept warned her not to go but I'm not rabid either.

CNN TV are reporting that the number arrested is now over 50 with more coming.

9 years for a tiny amount of hash oil is not excessive in your book? That isn't public opinion or based on any kind of sentencing law even in the US. You're just upset because Biden again does something actually popular.

CNN are reporting that the DoJ has recommended contempt charges for Trump over the documents subpoena.

They should have taken no deal? That would have been political insanity. As much as the far right might hate the gay, black girl, the sentence was manifestly excessive. The deal was predicated on that. If she'd gotten an appropriate sentence, the US may not have been willing to deal.

Eastman, Clark, Guiliani and Meadows will join Trump in the dock.

The worry now is that Putin knows he's a dead man walking if he loses the war. He will face justice in The Hague.

Hoping that H Biden committed a crime? LOL. You drank too much koolaide.

What corruption? There is nothing but innuendo and a single vague reference to "the big guy". If corruption is convicted then so be it. Until then it's just the usual far right wing trash talk.

For all the popping heads around here, CNN is reporting that Russia would not deal for any other person besides Griner. There wasn't a choice here. So knocking Biden is a bit pointless. He traded the worthless Bout for the only person he could get. The result is wildly popular. Refusing to accept that trade would have been both stupid and unpopular.
