Seriously anyone remember the issue with Emoluments? They were specifically banned in the constitution, and the Government was sued over it, and then the Supreme court sat on it until Trump was no longer president and then the supreme ruled it moot. Republicans will not play by the rules.

I don't think the same network in the hands of an unstable billionaire is an improvement. Given the choice I'd rather the U.S. have control of the network.

I don't think term limits will solve anything near what people pitching term limits as a panacea think they will solve.

They will not approve committee assignments for her replacement leaving the judicial committee deadlocked and unable to confirm judges.

Did he not pay the appropriate bribe? Are we suddenly going to start arresting rich people for doing crime now?

The article focuses on sexual abuse, but being a police officer offers many paths to abuse and lawbreaking, and a group of people who will back your bullshit until it starts to affect their privilege. It's not hard to figure why police act with disregard for the law: It's rarely applied to them, and not to the extent it's applied to non-police people.

I get it though. Israel has in the past expelled Palestinians and not allowed them to return leaving them stateless wherever they took shelter. Egypt doesn't want a million people to suddenly become their problem permanently.

Because everyone knows she is full of shit, some people just pretend to believe her because it allows them to do what they want: Attack queer people and act like it was justified.

I'm all about stopping the genocide in Gaza, that being said voting this down the bill would just add a genocide in Ukraine. Best we can hope for is harm reduction.

Miles features as Worf's beset upon first officer who has to cover for him as worf is constantly called away on top secret black ops missions.

It's absolutely ridiculous that the FBI is being partisan in an attempt to appear non partisan.

Dip biscuits in mash potatoes and gravy, or maybe a heel of bread if you don't have biscuits.

Attacking the source rather than defending your position... nothing more conservative than that.

People did protest, but there's no one to protest to. Supreme court justices are appointed for life, so there is no one to appeal to except the corrupt judge himself. I think people saw protesting the Supreme Court wasn't going to go anywhere and decided to focus on lobbying Congress for a supreme Court ethics statue.

To not see this defense brought forward you'd have to prevail on capitalists to not rabidly attack anyone to the left of wolf Blitzer, and so far nobody with that sort of money has been able or willing to show that sort of restraint.
