Just retaining them was the crime. Can a criminal just hand back the proceeds of a burglary and face no charges? He wasn't let off because he is innocent, but apparently because the investigator concluded he was too pathetic to be convicted by a jury. Yet that same too pathetic to convict man is POTUS. Strange world we live in.

Nope. They wanted to get Trump so they conflated a minor administrative case into a major legal case. The entire situation has been very badly done political theatre IMO. The court case has not yet concluded, so you are unable to say for sure that he refused, or just wanted to have a discussion about them before handing them over or not.

I agree, as indictments make him more popular. As he has so many now a few more will make no difference. Sometimes less is more; something the Dems apparently don't understand. Ten or so that were actually serious and had a chance of conviction would have had more effect on his chances than 91+ that IMO are often just malicious nothing burgers.

Inside Sweden's Deadly Gang Warfare: Voices from the Frontlines
thaibeachlovers replied to Social Media's topic in World News
That could have been a description of the Singapore government in the 1970s when I lived there. It was a brilliant country to live in back then- the bad guys got removed, and the good guys got to live better lives. Lee Kuan Yew was often described as a "benevolent dictator". The part that doesn't apply is the bit about race, as there were 3 different races pretty much equal populations and treated equally. -
Hmmmmm. Was it not the case that it was intended all along to remove those annoying male bits to change the child into the preferable castrated pseudo female version? Bit of a worry if the once upon a time boy decided that it was a mistake after all, and s/he had just been a tad confused. I'd like to be in the room when the parents had the talk where THEY had to explain that THEY decided that s/he was better off as a girl.

Shock, horror, hold the presses. Am I to believe that research into the long-term effects of puberty blockers was not done before giving them to any child that is confused about something or other? Well, well, well, is one able to say "told you so" now that it has come out that interfering with a child's normal physical development is not a good idea? Is that an example of shutting the stable door after the horse has departed? Humans have survived for over 50,000 years without preventing children developing normally, yet seems that all along humans needed puberty blockers. I'm amazed that this has only recently been learned and attempts to rectify the situation put into place.

Israel is at War - General discussion (pt3)
thaibeachlovers replied to Social Media's topic in The War in Israel
Considering the Oscars to be a waste of my time I was not aware of the controversy you reference, so thank you for informing me of it. I was able to use google to find out about it and kudos to Glazer, and brickbats to those media people who criticized him and de facto support israel's barbarous assault on the civilians of Gaza. -

As seems "normal" for this subforum you have posted a fact only information post and some pathetic individual has put a laugh emoji on it. It's not like you put any opinion from yourself on it to elicit such a response. It's sad that some posters think facts are some sort of joke. -
As Florida bans legal abortion, where will 84,000 women go?

Sorry, but I differ on that. IMO taxpayer paying for contraception avoids paying larger later when the unwanted child commits crimes and has to be incarcerated at taxpayer expense for years. Up to me free condom machines in every public toilet, and the pill free from any medical clinic after a free medical exam to see it was safe for the woman.
