I think Graham and Flake and Corker are examples of conservatism vs Trumpism, and also examples of why there really ain’t that much of a difference between the two. They don’t vote for Trump’s policies and nominees because they like Trump; they vote for Trump’s policies and nominees because they back those policies…

Even if it was a joke, I’m not sure why the victim has to attest to that. How would he know what the assaulter was thinking?

That sounds like a lot of work. It would be a lot easier to come up with one shell company, Essential Consulting, and write a check to EC for $1,000,000 and from EC to DJT Jr. for $1,000,000. Then if someone asks why, say that it’s book royalties from Trump’s book. And if someone asks to see the book, realize with a…

You can’t spell “Italian” without “Latina”!

I don’t think it was a joke. I also believe that other people in the administration have said much worse, and I also suspect that this is not the reason she was let go. There was another leak a short while later of a private meeting involving Sadler, her boss Mercedes Schlapp, and Trump where Sadler denounced Schlapp…

Honestly, that’s what is so sad about Pruitt for me. It’s not just that he’s a grifter, it’s that he’s a *cheap* grifter. He is the kind of person who would pistol whip a cashier so that he can steal the 36 cents in the “take a penny leave a penny” (it wouldn’t occur to him to even try to open the cash register or…

I thought it was a fetish thing, like some people sniff dirty underwear.

That’s why wills are so important. If you don’t have one yet, you’re leaving yourself vulnerable.

Weinstein himself (and a few other people) are sued as individuals, in addition to the LLC. It doesn’t matter if the LLC goes out of business.

As far as I can tell everyone in Roller Derby has a silly codename. It’s not just him.

Thanks! I’m not sure why I didn’t know that the season was already filmed.

Ahh gotcha. Thanks!

I think it’s amazing that he couldn’t even bring himself to fulfill her request. It would have been such an easy gesture to make with no real downsides for him, and it would be a good photo op. He could have still pardoned D’Souza too, it’s not like there’s a cap on the number of pardons he can issue.

But he didn’t win. The show just started. Why does she have to make do when the show isn’t close to ending yet. Did I misread this story?

Yeah, it’s like Ireland and Northern Ireland, or Mexico and New Mexico, or Virginia and West Virginia. Kansas and Ar Kansas.

Why? Aren’t they the hard right party that the May had to make a deal with after that snap election debacle last year? Indeed, that deal with the DUP is probably the main reason why Northern Ireland’s abortion laws are unlikely to be revisited any time soon.

I don’t know for sure, but I strongly suspect that states would have to be able to rescind their ratifications before the new deadline, as five of them were able to when rescind their ratifications after congress extended the deadline the first time (to 1982).

The Constitution doesn’t say anything about deadlines for ratifying amendments, so it’s really a legislative decision. If Congress wanted to reopen the deadline for ratifying an amendment, one challenge might be that states may want to withdraw their approval especially if it was ratified decades ago where the…

That’s a great point. There’s definitely a need to do something new with the material IMHO to justify making it a reboot. Just copying the original with new actors doesn’t seem worthwhile especially since the original is available for free watch.

She tried to post it, but the software that powers Kinja recoiled from the link. Her keyboard started bleeding and her monitor started blurring and sparking. It wasn’t worth it, we can just google it ourselves using someone else’s device.
