Right. I mean, look, we covered this in the 80s and 90s already. This is settled law.

This random asshole lost me the moment he said "the most important thing that Tucker says".

Tucker Carlson has never said anything important in his life. Not ever, not once.

Not really, but let's just say, after decades of Trump escaping any consequences for any of his dozens of crimes, I will believe the accountability when I actually see it and not before.

Also note that Epstein's legal team included Ken Starr, who was so aggressive in going after Bill Clinton for entirely consensual sex with a 24-year-old.

That's precisely what we saw with the Jan. 6th criminals.

So it's obviously likely to occur. It's not about what I think.

It's not "Congress". It's Republicans. Say their names. Democrats impeached him twice and would have convicted him if there had been a very small amount of Republican support.

Does it matter if the law is never enforced, and if the law-breaker dies without ever having been held responsible, and if all those who aided and abetted the conduct also escape responsibility? Because that's what seems likely to occur, here.

I'm no expert, but unlike pythons, our hearts are contained within a rather rigid bony structure. :) I don't think having our hearts grow by gigantic amounts would work out well for us.

There's three votes for anything on the supreme court. If trump said "I'm the god-king of arrakis" he'd get three votes and a lengthy opinion about the long history and tradition of english common law with regards to the spice melange

I misunderstood you, you were saying the image is homophobic, not the person commenting. I agree with you.

I'd argue it's not redundant; it can simply be read as distinguishing from other generations of adults, at least in the right context.

Um, no, he's not homophobic. I can assure you of that. However you ARE extraordinarily obtuse, and you're pretending that the salient feature of the image isn't even there. Just shut the fuck up if this is the best you can do.

We have a guy in the US Senate RIGHT NOW in the majority party who had polio as a child (McConnell), and yet somehow we still can't summon enough of a clue, as a nation, to keep from dismantling our vaccination system. It's so idiotic that it defies belief.

Try a re-install, or just a hard restart of your phone.

It's pretty hilarious watching Apartheid Boyβ€”who moved TO the apartheid regime because he liked it, then moved away (to Canada) just in time to avoid military serviceβ€”talk about the glories of "Scotts-Irish" culture. Like he fucking knows.

I just saw someone call him "President Oompa J. Loompa" and that made me laugh.

Anyway, maybe it'll happen today.

Degrees, of course, do not necessarily mean he has learned much of anything.

You can't teach subliterate idiots if they refuse to be taught and/or lack the ability to learn. It's not on the Ivies. It's on the idiots.

"The Scotch-Irish military culture." What complete bullshit.

I still doubt it. A SCIF is for top-secret documents. Only. These documents aren't even classified, as far as I know.

I've asked several people if they can provide any evidence that a SCIF was used here. So far, nobody can.

Nice idiotic comment! Meaningless. I didn't miss any part of the point.

I don't know of any source confirming that a SCIF is being used to view these documents. There's no particular reason why that would be the case.

Ousted how? It's impossibly difficult to oust a president.

A universe of supreme arrogance in which all fact has been entirely dissolved in the aqua regia of MAGA igorance.

It's kind of impressive just how good J. D. Vance is at being incredibly annoying and pissing people off. In any country, in any language, in any context. He's a real talent. This is why I'm not at all worried about him succeeding Trump, at least not via winning an election. He's not capable.

Maybe the staffer is underage and was really busy getting raped and just got distracted! Could happen to anyone. Fits perfectly with Trump's known behavior patterns.

Not to mention that the impulse towards what was supposedly "woke" to begin with rose out of the fact that those same people were gutter racists from about 1600 to the present. Unreconstructed Confederates who didn't change one bit during the 1960s except to temporarily hide things.
