  1. Yes! Because then they can ask them about anything. The lunge detail is trivial compared to the bigger picture of Trump's criminality.
  2. Maga die hards aren't enough. I didn't day he won't run. He might. But he won't be nominated.
  3. It won't fail at least in some potentially many red states. So far its constitutional based on a similar evil law in Texas. These radical right wingers are on a roll and they're out fot blood.
  4. Obviously you wouldn't want to get overly graphic about slavery to the very young but to introduce the basic facts about such an important part of American history using clear words yes absolutely.
  5. I would like to refer people to Jon Stewarts The Problem with Jon Stewart on youtube for a brilliant analysis of the downfall of trump and how the Hutchinson testimony fits into that. He doesn't need to be prosecuted. That would be nice and well deserved but he's OVER regardless.
  6. So lie to them about history? They clearly are teaching history at that age so freakin' don't whitewash it!
  7. I wouldn't go because I wouldn't fit in except if they have a separate restaurant. Sometimes Indian nightclubs do.
  8. Its pretty annoying to read all the not so borderline racism here. Anyone that actually knows something about this group would know that along with great unwashed masses many are filthy rich and like to show it.
  9. I was thinking as the place is so high end IF they did serve food it would be special.
  10. I think this is about the insane backlash against critical race theory. They don't want the white kids to feel guilty or some such silliness.
  11. My understanding is that some surgeons will do both eyes at the same time but the safer option is to do one at a time for obvious reasons. The risk is small but still there. Blind in one eye is manageable. When surgeons do clinics to remote areas working on each person for minutes I'm pretty sure they do both eyes. Obviously if you only need it for one eye they don't do two!
  12. Snitches for helpers. Could make the East German Stasi look like amateurs. The American Taliban's goal is to make fetuses legally people which would instantly ban abortions nationally. These radicals are bringing the US closer to civil war. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/fairness-justice/red-states-eye-restrictions-on-interstate-travel-for-abortion-services Red states eye restrictions on interstate travel for abortion services Conservative advocacy groups are teaming up with anti-abortion state lawmakers to draft legislation that would put an end to interstate travel for abortions , which could limit the remaining abortion options for women in states with stringent bans. The Thomas More Society, a conservative public interest law firm, has worked with red-state lawmakers to draft model legislation regulating interstate travel for abortions that would employ the civil enforcement mechanism that propped up Texas's six-week abortion ban, the Washington Post reported . The bills would target anyone seen to be aiding and abetting interstate travel for abortion services.
  13. I think there is a fair chance that the U.S. will make an unbalanced deal to get her back. I hope not but there will be a lot of pressure to do what it takes.
  14. I have a lot more sympathy for her than you do and am not so quick to condemn her without knowing the facts, but his happened and it's horrible for her and and her family. I consider her a casualty of war.
  15. Not everyone is politically savvy. You could say she should have known better, but that doesn't mean that she did. Maybe she's just a dumb jock. As far as the question of whether the U.S. should agree to a very unbalanced prisoner swap, my initial feeling is no. Don't be bullied by that Putin monster. But yes that would make her a victim of this war.
  16. More possible felonies. But she decided to be truthful and now she is subject to death threats.
  17. Anyone that thinks she is just another person accused of a crime in Russia and being treated the same as a non-famous person. That's who.
  18. Hey, I beat the professional pundits to the punch. https://www.thedailybeast.com/put-a-fork-in-donald-trump-the-ex-president-is-done
  19. Don't be so naive. Whether she had the goods or not, if she wasn't famous (and being lesbian helps as the Putin regime is aggressively anti LGBT) she wouldn't be up against punishments of this level. She's basically being held hostage for the hope to trade for a much higher value Russian or Russians, and also of course, given war criminal Putin's antics and the sanctions, it's a way to stick it to the USA in general. It has propaganda value in Russia as well to continue to scapegoat LGBT and linking LGBT to the west. So she's literally a great catch for them, a true gift. Of course we all can face consequences for crimes abroad, but this is much bigger than that. But indeed it ought to be a lesson to other westerners as well -- steer clear of Russia! Even nobodies may have value as Putin pawns.
