Devout Christian Mike Johnson shows up to hush money trial to defend a guy accused of cheating on his wife with a porn star (www.vanityfair.com)

House Speaker Mike Johnson describes himself as a Christian before anything else. He has said his “faith informs everything I do.” He has told people curious about his views to “pick up a Bible.” His wife reportedly runs a counseling service whose operating agreement, which he himself notarized, states, “We believe and...

ghterve,

Or that didn’t happen and you think it did because you listen to and believe lying liars who lie.

ghterve,

How do you think they just skipped the parts where they would state the actual alleged crimes? They in fact didn’t skip that part.

ghterve,

You’re just imagining facts that are convenient to what you want to think but are not true. This case has been in the works for years. It didn’t just happen recently all of the sudden because it is election season.

ghterve,

Again, do you think they can just ignore things like statute of limitations and proceed anyway just because they don’t like Trump and are out to get him? The case would not be in progress if that claim of yours was accurate. The charges were indeed filled before the statute of limitations expired. This is a real court with real rules that apply and matter. It isn’t a clown sham court like Trump wants you to think it is. Facts do indeed matter. Stop fabricating them (or believing someone else’s fabrications) to fit a narrative that you want to be true.

ghterve,

She did sign that letter. But she had previously said they did have the affair (and described it in detail). And shortly after she signed that letter, she admitted to Anderson Cooper the letter was a lie. She explained that she lied because… Get this… She was concerned about legal complications because she had accepted the hush money to not reveal the affair.

She also admitted that statement was a lie during her recent testimony while under oath. Signing that statement was not likely a crime. But if she had lied under oath this month, that would be a crime.

So, she was clearly lying at some point. Why do you choose to believe the much less plausible option that she was truthful the one time in 2018 but she was lying all the other times? There’s no logical explanation for that, yet the opposite (lied in the 2018 statement you posted) has much more logical support. The only reason I can see to believe her only that one time when she had reason to lie is because it lets you believe Trump’s lies that you really wish were true.

ghterve,

Ah but how convenient it is that anything we look up that doesn’t fit your narrative can simply be dismissed as being the MSM which obviously has an anti Trump agenda and therefore is a lie. That’s pretty convenient, yes? It is almost like that’s exactly why Trump made up this whole MSM is liars who are out to get him thing. He has even tried to turn “doesn’t like Trump” into an insult that he then uses against anyone not supporting his lies to try to discredit them so that his own lies seem more believable.

I hope you can eventually see out of his cloud of lies, deception, and manipulation. It may be painful briefly, but you’ll eventually start seeing all the ways you have been manipulated. It will eventually feel good like a nice warm blanket to finally be free of it.

ghterve,

Boot the laptop from a USB memory stick that has a Linux installer on it.

ghterve,

What?

ghterve,

I’m confused because I’m unfamiliar with any governments in the US that require homeowners or renters insurance. The closest I can think of is that FNMA or FMAC backed mortgages would surely require insurance to cover their collateral, but the government doesn’t require that you have a mortgage backed by either of those.

So… what are you talking about with “the government makes you have it”?

Also, how is it a scam? If you want to insure against a risk, you can choose to purchase an insurance policy against that risk. Sure, the insurer wants to make some profit off of that, but government insurance regulations and competition both help to keep that profit in check a bit…

ghterve,

What commodities go down? Inflation ensures that that’s not common.

ghterve,

It sounds like you are already doing this!

Congrats and good luck!

ghterve,

Well, this stranger is happy for you! Here’s to a much happier and healthier future.

ghterve,

They didn’t mean the backdoor was (or was not) an accident. They meant the backdoor was implemented sloppily enough to be discovered and maybe that was not an accident (as in, he wanted it to be found, but still wanted to plausibly be seen as trying his best to keep those coercing him appeased)

ghterve,

Woosh? (Probably)

ghterve,

I’m assuming the original post you replied to was meant to be a joke, since, like you pointed out, many or most people use RSA. I assume (using Occam’s Razor) that is more likely than them not knowing that and intending their post at face value.

ghterve,

They don’t expect them to be perfect. They expect them to be accountable for the consequences of their mistakes.

ghterve,

After realizing both shavers and cordless toothbrush chargers are going this route, I gave in and installed these in the bathroom

In all my cases where I installed those, I got lucky and the GFCI protection is upstream in another outlet somewhere.

You’re comparing a 25 year old vehicle with a new one. Come back in 25 years and do a similar comparison with a 2024 30k EV… Or, accept that your argument has nothing to do with EVs and is just an argument against buying new.

ghterve,

When you are 23, two years is forever. When you are 53, two years is like next week.

ghterve,

Good point. How did this go with R1? Did they make any pricing “promises” years before launch? Did they hold up?

Trump may have defamed E. Jean Carroll again, one day after posting a $91.6 million bond for last case (www.cnbc.com)

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday stood by his 2019 statement that writer E. Jean Carroll made a “totally false accusation” against him, despite similar claims resulting in him losing a defamation case in January....

ghterve,

Did you ever wonder if maybe it is because she has a horrible piece of shit for a father?
