I imagine, despite the testimony indicating that Mark should have known, that Mark Harris will plead ignorance, said he never planned any of this, and that it was a rogue staffer. Then, unless there is a paper trail (which, let’s be honest, there’s always a paper trail), the staffer will go to jail, Mark Harris will

She’s on the Oversight and Financial Committees. Those aren’t exactly bad assignments. Oversight is probably the fourth most prestige Committee, and Financial Committee makes a lot of sense for her since she reps a New York district.

Obama is also estimated to be worth $40m, takes home an annual pension of $200k, and makes oodles more each year in speaking engagements. Her drinking $20 rose is almost endearing in its lack of being hoity-toity.

Drinking $20 rose means you’re living like the 1%?

Student visas are heavily restricted in the types of employment they can take. From the USCIS website:

Not paying taxes on nannies is a longstanding political no-no that kills nominations. I know Clinton had several nominees torpedoed because of “Nannygate” (IIRC, he lost three attorney general nominees before it went to Janet Reno because of not paying taxes on nannies), and I think it killed a few Barack Obama

Disenfranchisement of one group or another is why Georgia has the second most counties in the nation behind only Texas.

I keep getting an error stating the video can’t be played. So maybe it has been already?

The gag order doesn't cover him going on TV. He's not allowed to give speeches on the courthouse steps, and the attorneys for both sides have a more comprehensive gag order predicated on the idea that as officers of the court they shouldn't taint the jury pool one way or the other. Stone can still speak about it

Increasing the size of SCOTUS is not going to happen without killing the filibuster entirely.

I seem to recall reading that he testified during his divorce trial that it was all an act just to make money.

Statutes of limitation would likely come into play.

Now this is a #PizzaGate controversy I can get behind.

I’m from Georgia. I first voted in a Georgia election in 2002. I went with my father. We used the same electronic machines back then. At the time, Roy Barnes (D) and Cathy Cox (D) were the Governor and Secretary of State respectively (Barnes lost his reelection bid that year, Cox won hers). I remember him showing both

This teacher is black, not white.

Republicans were masters of shifting the Overton Window for decades. It seems many of the Dem leadership haven’t learned how to do it.

When the Wayans Brothers put out that White Girls movie, there were TONS of “WHY COME THEY CAN DO WHITEFACE AND I CAN’T DO BLACKFACE” complaints.

The Hill is reporting that if Trump declares an emergency over the wall, and Congress then tries to pass resolutions to reign it in (under some law that gives them oversight over declarations of emergencies which they’ve never invoked), then Manchin will vote with the Repubs to keep the emergency in place.

The defense of “TV anchors host debates with guests who hold different, and at times, controversial opinions. That does not mean the moderator agrees with the views expressed”
