I’m sure this will be endlessly delayed by every kind of legal maneuver possible, and I personally don’t expect the sentence to include prison time, but I don’t care. The motherfucker has been found GUILTY ON ALL 34 COUNTS. That’s good enough for me.
Edit: are there people out there who don’t think it’ll be a circus? I agree with the verdict 100%, but let’s not kid ourselves. The next few months are going to be ridiculous.
Russia has accused Nato and the US of “provoking a new level of tension” after the US and Germany became the latest allies to let Ukraine’s military to use Western-supplied weapons to strike targets inside Russia....
I almost sympathize when they use the term “debt slavery”, but then I remember that they’ve spent months, perhaps years, dealing with their problems in the least effective, most irresponsible way possible.
Yeah, the trial verdict really pisses off conservatives. A coworker was a Nikki Haley supporter. I thought she’d be annoyed, but not too angry, because I thought she’d given up on Trump. Wrong!
She usually knows better than to talk politics with me, but she had to vent about the Trump trial. Of course, she blamed everyone but him.
To avoid making her even angrier, I pretended to remain neutral, claiming that I didn’t know much and hadn’t really been following the trial, but secretly I was enjoying every bit of her Fox News-parroting tantrum. She’s good at her job, but a malleable idiot when it comes to politics.
Here’s how John Howard Griffin did it when writing Black Like Me:
In late 1959, John Howard Griffin went to a friend's house in New Orleans, Louisiana. Once there, under the care of a dermatologist, Griffin underwent a regimen of large oral doses of the anti-vitiligo drug methoxsalen, and spent up to 15 hours daily under an ultraviolet lamp for about a week. He was given regular blood tests to ensure that he was not suffering liver damage. The darkening of his skin was not perfect, so he touched it up with stain. He shaved his head bald to hide his straight brown hair.
Funny timing. I just finished rewatching WandaVision the other day. I remember liking it the first time, but it’s better once you’ve seen the films that come afterwards and know more about her character.
BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) — Andrew Tate, the divisive social media influencer awaiting trial in Romania on charges of human trafficking and rape, lost an appeal Thursday to have the court relax geographical restrictions preventing him from traveling outside the eastern European country....
He should be locked up again (or at least placed back under house arrest) for claiming that he has “fundamental free right to travel”. Believing he has that “right” makes him a flight risk.
Using Mulvaney as a tool is a shitty way to treat a person, but apparently Becker doesn’t count her as a real person, which tells you everything you need to know about him.
