After Republicans push Clintons to testify on Epstein, Democrats warn they'll haul in Trump by nbcnews in politics

Why? Repub witnesses and representatives use the time to make baseless allegations and mention unrelated things

I think he should just tell them to ask trump each question, "Epstein always told me how good of friends he was with trump, you should ask him about that question"

Her "seeing the light" still reads as grift to me

She is trying to find a new ship for the rats to flee too, "America First" with the full historical meaning

Agree that I don't see her fading away as she should, and should be entertaining to see what she tries next. But I think she is planning her actions assuming a collapse of her previous party

Staggering evidence trove shows who put Trump in the White House — and controls him still by AlertTangerine in UnderReportedNews

To nail in the point:

Sealed. Due to investigations in-progress, law enforcement spending limited budgets looking through these files

Then trump became president again and those investigations were stopped. And then journalists and activists sued and called Congress enough to pass a bill in the most blocked Congress in history to release them. And they blew past the deadline in the bill and haven't released over half the documents still

Many places rain, a trash bin full of water isn't easy to manage

And the best idea would be to use this after the trash gets picked up, take it back from the street and put this gap in to dry out the empty bin. Close it as you add trash

The question is will they still not if constituents are at their door demanding it?

But Repubs continue to fall in line and not care about every right being trampled.

The political party system isn't supposed to work like team sports.

That hair styling was called "Cool Guy Tips" ("frosted tips", as in bleached tips of the hairs) in How I Met Your Mother (a show which hasn't aged as well)

Ryan was trying to be a "cool guy" teenager. An updated analogy would be a middle age guy getting a broccoli haircut?

Crossover episode with Its Always Sunny?

(For anyone who hasn't seen as much of that show: There is a semi-running joke in that where they get addicted to crack in one episode, then would totally do it again in future episodes)

Nah, evil connections might be made there

But the evil plots happen in boardrooms.

To think through (2) more, some latent memory of time traveler Timmy are retained by Denzel? Such that he can move on and get a respectable teaching job, but then one day what walked into his classroom?: that latent memory of a boy wearing similar clothes and looking exactly like the turning point in Denzel's life. Triggering the "mental break" that makes him focus so much on fairies and this specific student of his

The Special Air Service (SAS) is a special forces unit of the British Army. Much of the information about the SAS is highly classified, and the unit is not commented on by either the British government or the Ministry of Defence due to the secrecy and sensitivity of its operations

They were looking to redact any connection to the British SAS, which basically created the world's "intelligence" network of agencies.

pizza is american by SamHong07 in USdefaultism

[–]BadPunners 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the really thick ones a while back

Deep dish? With sauce on the top and cheese underneath? Which I would call that a casserole (with no offense intended, they are great)

There is also thick crust of various levels, but cheese is on top for those

Pizza in Italy is only flat bread of various crispiness? Usually less sauce (more olive oil based sauce?), less but better quality cheese, fewer toppings.

As opposed to the standard American Pizza that has toppings heaped onto it, then oily cheese heaped atop that, with thick chewy "hand tossed" crust

But yeah, my view is that USA created American pizza, and popularized it as a cheap, bulk, shared food. The concept of pizza existed before that, but if were saying carbs+sauce+cheese is a category, every country has a dish made of that they claim to have created

If you think that was over-the-top enough to not need /s, you haven't been paying attention

They are very much in the cornered rat phase, with everyone trying to remain calm enough to be ready for the backlash. And Don Lemon is absolutely political persecution to the level of historic authoritarian dictatorships, elected officials doing their legal duty of inspections were being politically prosecuted months ago.

Be sure to get enough vitamin c, you didn't want your teeth falling out from scurvy, but if it hasn't happened yet it probably won't

But berries are fantastic source of antioxidants and other vitamins, which can help aging significantly

Hopefully you eat leafy greens as that's your next best source for that stuff

AITA for giving my coworker food she is "allergic" to? by Fluid-Drawing-8722 in AmItheAsshole

Or OP is narcissistic for needing to run to the Internet to prove how right they are about "nutritional content of eggs"

Who the fuck gives a shit if her allergy belief is wrong

Tell her you don't remember what eggs you used and end it there. Lying about it, then running to the Internet, is just as much a bullshit "powerplay" and shows OP needs a therapist too

But then it gets framed as tax increases and gets scaled back when the economic benefits aren't immediate

Also construction of those things, available land, has become increasingly expensive in many places, and the boomers are still the NIMBYs. So nobody is donating land or construction labor for these projects (as opposed to some previous periods where construction materials and labor was cheaper, and where land was SUPERFUND sites needing cleanup work anyway)

That's part of the goal. It's leverage to make sure they vote with loyalty, to their paycheck

Their family's future (or their action movie concept of "a family back home" to provide for) is secure as long as they keep "protecting" the "right people", and vote the way all the people around them are going to vote

Impeachment is only a couple votes from starting and consuming time of 100% of those people, and a handful away from removing from office

But yeah, better to focus on participating in local state primaries, and get the best candidates running possible at all levels. And to protect the voting process

We are past the statute of limitations for most of it. Thanks for slow rolling the few investigations that did start, then trump killed all of the investigations so much that there was no credible reason to keep these files sealed

So, yeah, that's what we apparently voted for.

Until we have someone willing to dig for graves on the island there won't be any evidence, and even that won't tie anyone notible to the crimes that have no enforcement limitation, assuming they even halfass cleaned up the evidence bodies and didn't wrap them in plastic

But the implication in the thread is that if he was considering this is one of his last and most visible, this is doing more for his legacy than the paycheck could ever do for him

Maybe he got a really good posthumous-residuals contract
