  1. how much coaching did it take to get the girls to NOT mention names. maybe some money helped them. Sometimes the lawlessness and impunity of the wealthy and powerful is right out in the open, (like this case) and we are so brainwashed, and under attack from every side, that it just draws a collective yawn. absolutely astounding that Not one of the male predators has even sniffed being charged. it is impossible to keep track of the lawlessness of those people. Joe Biden is going to go begging to the murderer crown Prince of Saudi Arabia. In our world, There really is a large international group of people who are subject to no laws whatsoever. dont know what to say, i though ghislaine would lever a deal with her secrets.
  2. a planet without life is not ok. we are reportedly going through a mass extinction process. thanks to us. "Globally, up to 1 million species are at risk of extinction because of human activities, according to a United Nations report released in May. Many experts say a “mass extinction event” – only the sixth in the past half-billion years – is already underway. "
  3. US supreme court delivers another piece of wreckage. EPA can not regulate power plants. this wrecking ball court, together with congress that does nothing. means big trouble. "Justice Elena Kagan wrote a dissent, which was joined by the court’s two other liberals. “Today, the Court strips the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of the power Congress gave it to respond to ’the most pressing environmental challenge of our time, ” Kagan wrote in the dissent. “The Court appoints itself — instead of Congress or the expert agency—the decisionmaker on climate policy. I cannot think of many things more frightening,” Kagan wrote. She also said, “The majority claims it is just following precedent, but that is not so. The Court has never even used the term ‘major questions doctrine’ before.” A White House spokesperson on Thursday said the EPA ruling was “another devastating decision from the Court that aims to take our country backwards.”" cnbc. no idea where the World is headed. emissions continue to rise, and I am thinking its basically over for the planet. thankful that I am old, and will not be around twenty years from now to see the hellscape we have created. worth noting, half of democrats voted FOR scjudge John Roberts, who delivered this monstrous decision.
  4. whatever branch she belongs to. the others, only if there is no conflict with hers. probably as long as muslims, hindus, jews, atheists, buddists have no rignts shed be ok with things. she seems to have handily walked away from the steaming pile of excrement that is her past record. symptom of the steep decline. The Thomas character seems to hold a grudge for a looonnng time. Brady must be envious..
  5. Powell memorandum. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/58894b38ebbd1a2ab75adbe2/t/588cd57dd482e988fc008e79/1485624704579/Lewis-Powell-Memo.pdf a lot of it traces back to this document. "Fifty years ago, an American lawyer called Lewis Powell Jr. wrote a memo for the US Chamber of Commerce that deserves to be better remembered than it is. It was to become the blueprint for a “hostile takeover” of US economic and political life by a wealthy, conservative elite. Fifty years on, the threats to America’s “free enterprise system” that worried Powell — high taxes, government regulation and a powerful labour movement — have been well and truly defanged. In no small part, this is a result of the way that the strategy Powell set out in his 1971 memo was operationalised by its most influential reader: Charles Koch, CEO (then and now) of Koch Industries, America’s largest privately-owned company. Over the intervening decades, Koch (along with a handful of other hyper-wealthy Americans) has funded and organised a campaign to (in the words of one historian) ‘save capitalism from democracy — permanently.’ That campaign, as Powell recommended, has been waged on multiple fronts: in academia, the media, politics and the judiciary. Its success has relied on a near-perfect alignment of ideology and self-interest — and a ruthless persistence on Koch’s part." https://medium.com/volans/how-the-powell-memorandum-changed-capitalism-and-what-we-can-learn-from-it-today-d2ce10234f82 Kochs invested a lot of money in supreme court judge trump appointment Gorsuch, who is an anti regulation extremist. yeah, Garland is doing nothing. as is Biden, Pelosi, Schumer. bravely singing songs.
  6. "As reported, a corporatist coup within the Democrat Party, which started during the 2021 special elections, has been launched by a wide array of allied groups including cryptospeculators, the oil industry, pharmaceuticals, finance, and even Republicans. The White House political shop (which is now not-so-jokingly called the Committee for Assisted Democratic Suicide in some circles) has not only botched the politics around Biden’s legislative agenda but is now taking a sledgehammer to Biden’s electoral coalition. This year, they’ve had the president make endorsements in just two Houseprimaries. The first was for Representative Kurt Schrader. Schrader not only worked to gut Biden’s Build, Back, Better bill, but also voted against the initial House version of the Covid relief bill. (Not to mention that his reelection is opposed by local Democratic organizations that represent 90 percent of the Democratic voters in the district.)" https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/democratic-party-primaries/ right now, Biden's focus, like Wall street, is inflation.
  7. Ellingson
  8. used to hear stuff like this on Art Bell, now hear it coming from former President of United states.
  9. recommend you read the guardian article posted by watcher. also "In 2007, when Barack Obama was running for president, he promised that “the first thing I’d do as president is sign the Freedom of Choice Act,” which would affirm abortion rights and effectively codify Roe v. Wade, the 1973 landmark decision that guaranteed abortion rights as constitutionally protected. Then-presidential candidate Obama made this promise on July 17, 2007 in a speech to the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, which works to fight for laws and policies to protect reproductive rights and advance access to sexual health care." and then, after being elected: "WASHINGTON, 2009 April 29 (Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Wednesday he favored abortion rights for women but that passing a law guaranteeing those rights was not his top priority, trying to avoid inflaming divisions over the issue." abortion rights = fundraising point. endless source of money. Democrats are full of it.
  10. "The last day on which a majority of #SCOTUS Justices had been appointed by Democratic Presidents was May 14, 1969. The next 11 Justices, and 13 of the next 15, were appointed by Republican Presidents — even though Democrats have won 6 of the 13 presidential elections since then." partly chance, partly politicians either being ruthless (republican) or being weak ... Democrats. I also read today that this filibuster could be ditched by changing an appointment, the parliamentarian. do not know if correct. Dems in power, hold quaint legislative friends gentlemans club rules above all else. meanwhile there are actual revolutionaries in high places. edit , just read Dems are making "inflation fighting " their top priority. 🤣 I guess... just dumb.
  11. starting to think biden pelosi schumer et al are not up to the task they have been given. biden still living in the bipartisan world of thirty years ago. guy lives in a dream world.
  12. last time I saw something like this rourke, was doug flutie. not saying he's doug flutie. but I hope he is.
  13. I did not know there was discretion on offside. thanks.
  14. forget which game... offence was offside,refs let play continue, pass play , defence called for p.i. play was allowed, both penalties enforced, first down given. thought that was odd. never seen it before, is that the way the rules are supposed to work?
  15. "financial indiscipline" 😂 lol, just chuck them all out. just covered up for andrew. how bout this? "The Queen’s lawyers secretly lobbied Scottish ministers to change a draft law to exempt her private land from a major initiative to cut carbon emissions, documents reveal. The exemption means the Queen, one of the largest landowners in Scotland, is the only person in the country not required to facilitate the construction of pipelines to heat buildings using renewable energy. Her lawyers secured the dispensation from Scotland’s government five months ago by exploiting an obscure parliamentary procedure known as Queen’s consent, which gives the monarch advance sight of legislation." but, nice table manners, and can play polo! looked up their educational accomplishments.... only one of the Royals has a University degree. lol. talk about spoiled, and entitled. dianna had grade 12. lol. idiots.

  18. rourke best long passer in the CFL?
  19. derel walker .... doesnt do much
  20. "House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was asked why she is still supporting Representative Henry Cuellar,the conservative Texas Democrat whose house and campaign office were recently raided by the FBI, for reelection, and she said she is. Then, in a mind-boggling moment during Thursday’s press conference, Pelosi took the time to also remind everyone that in addition to the whole FBI thing that’s cast a shadow over Cuellar’s ethical standards, he’s also the lone antiabortion Democrat left in the House—a position one would think would leave a disqualifying black mark on a Democrat’s political résumé given the Supreme Court looks poised to overturn Roe v. Wade in the coming weeks. But no, Pelosi, whose party and caucus sought to use abortion rights to motivate Americans to go to the polls this past week, said she’s backing him even though he’s anti-choice. “I’m supporting Henry Cuellar, he’s a valued member of our caucus. " Biden supports him too. it's all theatre with them.
  21. three games one t.d. allowed.
  22. I think faj passing scheme divides the field into three equal parts from sideline to sideline. so he has three long passing plays..... 1. heave it as far as he can to left 1/3 2, 3, same to middle, and right thirds. somebody gotta be down there. hes going to get a receiver killed one of these games.
  23. his wife participated with vigour in a coup attempt.😂 taking a wrecking ball to their legal system. precedent gone, then nobody knows what the law is. basically law by fiat. the epa is going to go down in flames. clean air act, auto mileage rules, any kind of environmental regulation, going to be tossed. These people are crazy ****. and sadly, the dems are too flaccid to do whatever there is that they can do. impeach those on the court that lied under oath before congress. gasp! wont happen. I looked up.... when Roberts was nominated, 22 Democrats voted for his appointment. about half of total Dem senators who had a vote. edit. "The U.S. Supreme Court was wrong to legalize interracial marriage, Indiana Sen. Mike Braun, a Republican, argued on Tuesday. Suggesting the historic Loving v. Virginia ruling by the Supreme Court decades ago was a case of improper judicial activism, Braun said the court should have left that decision to the individual states, including those which had already outlawed interracial marriage. " I dont really want to travel down there. too insane.
