If you had the power to make your wishes come true and this is what you'd wish for, it's time to for you to reconsider what you're about.
Sticks and stones. Anyone can write anything but it's up to you to control your own anger. Consider the wife beater who maintains that it's their victim's fault for making him so angry that he loses control and gets violent.
Take a step back, no people in the world, zero of them, cares about what someone here writes about you.
Why do you?
Wow, that one guy is certainly a legit sample size. Nice research, that certainly proves that it wasn't good for one person!
How does that compare to, say, how many people say that cigarette smoking destroyed their lives? Or gun violence.
Maybe I missed something along the way, but a tweet isn't proof of anything, it's an opinion.
This is exactly how Trump gets M's of gullible people to go along with his stolen election lies.
Thanks, that's a lot of good info. He didn't ask my age, although I was 70 at the time and maybe look it
There isn't much of a choice for Viktor, if Vlad wants him back in the game, he'll be back in the game, or risk falling out of an upper story building window.
I just read that Russia is using ordinance from the 1990's in Ukraine, so if Viktor can put together some deals for Vlad he'll have even more money squirreled away.
At any rate, it will be interesting to see what becomes of him, he might be too little too late to save Vlad's Ukrainian folly.
This stupidity has been effectively debunked several times on this board. Why in the world do you think it's important or interesting or sensible enough to keep repeating?
Hint: it's not. And you're not triggering the libs, you are merely demonstrating a lack of critical thinking skills, which seems to be the way you roll.
Anecdotally, last year I went to my local Costco for my flu shot. They told me they were out but the pharmacy guy said it was actually no big deal because it was only effective on that small-ish variety of strains.
I'm neutral on flu vaccine, flu is usually not life or death, but I've gotten my 2 covid vaxxes and 3 boosters. And I'm all in on the polio vaccine.
It's not a pleasant outcome when the anti-vaxxers have their way:
https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/06/health/measles-outbreak-spreads-ohio/index.html
Measles, for goodness sakes, very highly contagious and most of the affected children are unvaccinated. What the heck is wrong with these people?
Yes. Why would the US give him up for a woman basketball player? Some reading between the lines is in order.
So, then, your position is that Viktor has, basically, no value to Vlad at this point?
That could be, I suppose, but he might have connections to a list of non-government suppliers of arms and still can be an effective middleman with his old pals. If he has no value to Vlad, Vlad would have probably let him enjoy his time in an American supermax until the sentence expired.
Clearly, there seems to be something going on that we mortals cannot discern.
It's also a possibility that overworked and underpaid prison guards could have been convinced to leave the room during a prison visit or two to facilitate private conversations. See Jeffrey Epstein, for example.
Your point is not well considered.
Do you think the US would have made the trade if the merchant of death had not named names and / or has not been turned to work for us?
No one cares much about a WNBA star, her story would have faded in another news cycle or two. But if Viktor has come over to our side then the trade is just a pretext to get him out there legitimately to start working for us.
You seem to think that people in DC are unable to think things through and do subterfuge. You think it's another fuck up because that's what you want to think.
Biden was the head of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for years. Of course that can't compare to Trump's experience in running teen age beauty contests overseas, but as Newt recently said, it's a mistake to underestimate Biden.
Do you think he's been able to run his operation from jail for these past few years? It's possible, and you're right, maybe he hasn't been turned but named names.
On the other hand, Vlad desperately needs to get his hands on some weapons, so there's that.
On the other other hand, it might be silly to believe that anyone in DC actually cared about a WNBA star and this is a chance to get Viktor out there with a handler. They couldn't just let him go to be a spy for us but a trade might be very very convenient.
You ok, though, with Gen. Flynn, Manafort, Bannon, etc. all getting pardons from Dear Leader? They all pled guilty, they're criminals, too.
Griner had a prescription for the small amount she was carrying, it's not like she was dealing pot on a large scale in Moscow.
The merchant of death has been turned by the CIA or they never would have let him go.
Seems to be a poorly written article. What percentage of those being hospitalized with covid are unvaccinated? I might have missed it but it seems like an important data point.
The other thing is that there are always multiple strains of the flu going around this time of year and the flu vaccine typically works against about 2/3 of them.
https://www.cnn.com/2021/12/16/health/flu-vaccine-mismatch/index.html
"It tends to be a “good” season if the vaccine is 40% to 60% effective, Roberts says."
I'm no anti-vaxxer by a long shot, but forewarned is forearmed.
Totally not true, never happened, obviously.
He / she shows the empathy of a sociopath. Again.
No harm, no foul, I look forward to jousting with you in the future.
There are a lot of historians who believe that the Revolution was fought to preserve slavery, this is not breaking news. Do some research into when and why Virginia signed on to the fight for Independence. I'm not going to do it for you, but be warned it involves some reading.
When did I advocate for drag queen reading in school?. I said I had no objection to it, can you not tell the difference?
It's not like the drag queens are role models or anything, anyway:
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/rudy-guiliani-donald-trump-drag-video-seduce-new-york-mayor-us-president-a8344921.html
So you haven't read The 1619 Project but you have strong opinions about it? What are you afraid of? Will reading it turn you into someone who advocates for drag queens reading in schools?
Like yourself, I have ignorant opinions about a lot of books I haven't read. The idea is to not be so obvious about it..
But seriously, folks, what the fuck is he talking about?
"Her opinions"? A woman edited it but it was written by many contributors, which I guess answers the question about whether you read it.
Gaslighting? Seriously, What the fuck are you talking about? Aren't you against drag queens reading to kids in schools? Do you know what gaslighting means? I have my doubts.
Sorry but you make zero sense. I'm advocating for open discussions about a variety of things and you've turned it around.
It seems like those against drag queens reading to kids, LIKE YOU, are about keeping uncomfortable facts out of curriculum.
By the way, how did you like reading the 1619 Project book? Are they some more uncomfortable facts you want to keep out of the classroom?
I never understood the mentality of people who like Trump, but I thank you for providing some insight. Your reading comprehension skills seem to non-existent.
I am ok with it, not sure what the problem is. I guess in some enclave where there's no cable tv or internet we can keep the kids having pure thoughts.
And it's a good thing no kids ever saw this:
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/rudy-guiliani-donald-trump-drag-video-seduce-new-york-mayor-us-president-a8344921.html
I'll bet there's a miniscule number of times that drag queens have read to anyone and you guys are seizing on another culture war issue to avoid tackling real world problelms.
I'd much rather hear how you plan to deal with infrastructure problems while at the same time advocating for cutting taxes.
I'm not questioning the frequency of your interactions with teachers or your honesty about that. I want to know how you know all about what all the "dems" want.
But keep deflecting, please.
Once you got called out, you reverted to "both sides", which I can believe, but I think it's a lesser problem for the most part.. Ask teachers in Florida, for example, why they are quitting and the problems with parents doesn't come up so much:
https://www.news-press.com/story/opinion/2022/10/25/florida-teachers-why-so-many-leaving-their-jobs-ron-desantis/10565180002/
"The reason? Governor Ron DeSantis’s inserting himself into school classrooms with his anti-woke hatred, with bans on books, on critical race theory, and on sexual orientation and gender identity discussion and instruction."
https://19thnews.org/2022/07/national-school-teacher-shortage-florida-controversial-laws/
I want someone trained in auto mechanics to work on my car and I want someone who took a degree in childhood education to teach my kids. They know best, not some right wing politicians looking to build national profiles.
So, you know all the "Dems" and they all told you that? Or, maybe you can link to a poll of "Dems" about it? Or, maybe you're just repeating shit that Tucks told you?
The "Dems" I know want the schools to teach their kids and raise them in the sense of helping them learn how to think and solve problems and appreciate context.
It's the Jesus people who want schools to be extensions of church and to raise kids in the ways of the Scripture. That evolution is incorrect, that women should serve men, that the earth is 6000 years old.
It's also interesting that you know about what "Dems" teach their kids about sex. Do share where you find all this stuff out, it's fascinating.
Just because you don't give your lap dog treats doesn't mean you don't own him.
Putin wouldn't do anything for Trump because Jr, Kushner, and Manafort, in the infamous meeting in Trump Tower, promised Putin's surrogate that the Magnitsky Act would be repealed and then Trump wouldn't do it when he assumed office. And that controls Putin's access to his $Bs.
Trump even tried to withhold money for military equipment for Ukraine that had already been approved by Congress to get back in Vlad's good graces. But surely that wouldn't have benefitted Putin, who was definitely not getting ready to invade Ukraine, it was all about MAGA.
The pairing of The Art of the Deal and Donald Trump is an oxymoron, by all accounts Trump has been a terrible negotiator throughout his career. Name one thing Trump did while in office that benefitted anyone other than himself, his family, and a few cronies. The idea that he would put something on the line for someone else is laugh out loud funny.
The issue with their marketing approach, one of them, has always been their refusal to acknowledge that no one wants to buys software for computer protection in an ala carte fashion. There's no demand whatsoever to buy a separate anti-keylogging thing and an anti-virus thing, etc., these are not retail stand-alone products.
They probably should have sold their first three offerings, assuming they work well, to a company like Norton for addition to a suite of protection that can be installed all at once.
Anyone who didn't run for the exits when they were "selling" on HSN has only themselves to blame. And that includes me. They insist on a marketing plan that was designed to sell appliances in the late 20th century.
Interesting because when I went on their website, the correct one thanks to you, I saw no mention of a staff or anyone other than the founder.
The mechanics of this thing is odd, how did they even find her? I'm guessing she might be a shareholder who lets them use her company name so she can get free publicity.
Or is a family member or friend of one of Zerify's employees. I'd be surprised if her company is actually paying for its use.
Question: there are 5 colleges within about 20 miles of Zerify headquarters. How is it possible they've never sold anything to any of them ever?
You are correct, my bad.
However, the company I mistakenly posted about, has 5 employees, the LLC joint has one, the founder.
Which leads to the obvious question, with whom does she Zerify?
By their website, they seem to be a right wing political campaign consulting group. So, the five of them can Zerify back and forth but won't be able to with their clients, who don't have it and see no reason to switch to it.
Listening to snippets of the arguments now going on at the Supreme Court about the hateful graphic artist who's apparently afraid that being gay is a contagious condition. The main takeaway is that these justices are doing everything they can to convince us that they're far from being great legal minds.
I'm not a lawyer but can understand logic, a bit, and this is pathetic. Can't we do better for Supreme Court justices? I don't mean more left or right, just smarter and less focused on the rights of Christians to discriminate. They embarrass themselves.
Again, see what's going on in Indiana about the abortion laws there.
Seriously, it was a win win. Imagine how glad his cousins were to not have to deal with him. Strange that he looks at it as their loss.
What's "the left"? It's the kind of term you throw around as if it has some meaning. I don't get it, it seems to me to be a phrase that excludes any kind of nuance that we encounter in actual real life.
I believe I've asked you two or three times already to please define what it means to you. If you want to be taken seriously, because otherwise you just come off as a lightweight tossing up word salads. Oooh, "the left".
If you can't explain what you mean the term is meaningless, sort of like calling anyone you don't like a communist or whatever. You don't think there are staunch fiscal conservatives who are socially progressive? What boxes must be checked to be a person on "the left"?
I'll respect your answer, although I might not agree, if you give one. Who eats whose own, what does that even mean, you speak in riddles.
Ok, but do you see that Avenatti is not going around calling the judicial system corrupt because he's been convicted? He's not claiming that he's a victim of some Deep State conspiracy designed to shut him up and put him away.
He's a sleaz-o criminal but at least he's big enough to shut up and do the time. We'll see how Don Jr and Eric handle the sentences they'll get for tax evasion, if they'll man up, too..
Another interesting case making its way through the court system is happening now in Indiana. A Jewish and Muslim group is challenging the very restrictive abortion law there on the grounds that it violates their religious freedom:
https://www.reuters.com/legal/judge-blocks-indiana-abortion-ban-religious-freedom-grounds-2022-12-03/
I guess we're about to see if religious freedom in this country only applies to Christians who don't want to pay for their employees' contraceptive coverage in corporate insurance plans. Or who don't want to bake cakes for gay marriages.
Ok, fair enough, but one nut job is a pretty small sample size.
After Harsell tweets that Levine is saying this, he turns that into, "they", notice that?
How big is Levine's following, how many are coming to his defense? Who is this, "they" that's referred to? You make it seem like he's Biden's Surgeon General or some such.
You know, there are nut cases who think all kinds of things, I don't see this as a movement or political action, it's just one nutter. On that you make and rest your case? Pretty, pretty, lame.
Trump insisted that Obama wasn't born in America, was he correct just because he said it on tv? I mean, again, does this also have credibility because it's on the internets?

Actually, it should be "worse" is coming, not "worst".
You seem to consider yourself some kind of financial or stock maven, but I'm not seeing it, your stock picks are mediocrities, at best. Your economic predictions are without basis in the facts based universe.
On what do you stake your claim that "worst" is coming? Is it below you to provide links, references, anything that anyone would consider substantive, or are you just convinced that if you write it that it's correct.
Because I'm not seeing it. Data and theory, both, are indicating, that it seems to be a tossup, things could get "worst" but it's also possible the "worst" is behind us. If you, or anyone, can't prove that you predicted the meltdown in 2008, your current predictions are without merit, you have no track record.
You MAGAts hope for the "worst" for America because you see any problems that can be laid at Biden's feet as a cynical way to regain political power. You and Vlad love it when American fails.
Remember those commercials for Hertz? "Thats brutal, Juice". And it was.
From Kemp's subsequent career in politics, we might safely assume he was suffering from CTE.
Yes, on 1/6 but I don't think he's using Twitter these days, he's using his own failing platform, Truth Social.
It will interesting to watch to see which obnoxious blowhard destroys his platform first, Dear Leader or Musk.
It's possible that true MAGAts don't spend much time on Twitter. Instead they exchange words of wisdom, more often, on Telegram, 8Chan, Stormfront, Parler and other shining lights of the free speech movement
Herschel Walker was, undoubtedly, a great football player. And that's why other former great and popular football players who respect his values, have endorsed and campaigned for him.
Like..... no one.
Yes, and it's particularly troubling when those who are role models to some embrace drag shows:
https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-stuck-his-face-in-rudy-guilianis-chest-in-2000-drag-comedy-skit-2018-5
Personally, I'd rather have drag queens reading to kids than trying to overturn elections.
Of course, Rudy always advocated for the traditional family unit:

Blood is thicker than water. If you refused to talk to your cousins when you were young, for whatever reasons, it's on you - to them, they had an unfriendly cousin who wouldn't talk to them and, possibly, were hurt by that.
I have a cousin I'm close to, an absolute brainiac otherwise, who's very conservative, politically. I disapprove, obviously, think she's naive, and gets news from limited sources, primarily Fox, and she knows it. We joke about our differences, don't talk about politics, but, blood is thicker than water.
You make adult rationalizations for churlish childhood behavior. It's pretty lame, all in all.
Sorry, I guess it went over my head, as things sometimes do.
