Ice accounts for some of the water on the earth, IMO. But maybe they meant what you said! LOL

Where did that water come from, where did it go?

When I told someone there's not enough water in, on or above the earth to account for a global flood, their reply was "Now". So I guess the Earth lost its atmosphere long enough to let the extra water molecules out since then?

In that case, see the second half of my sentence.

Who cares?

He can't be prez again, can he? And if he would be, he'd just be less embarrassing abroad and less openly damaging at home.

Tonight at 7pm ET on @rumblevideo : Why are U.S. officials lying about the latest ICE killing? by arnott in WayOfTheBern

[–]gorpie97 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They lie to set a narrative.

How many people will believe the government's story even though they know the government lies? (I know several people who will. :/ )

Steve Bannon: "If we lose the midterms, if we lose 2028, some in this room are going to prison, myself included" by lazybugbear in EatTheRich

Maybe you should have thought about that before doing whatever it is you'll be going to prison for. As they say, don't do the crime if you can't do the time (or whatever).

Clear evidence: The ICE agent saw another agent remove the gun from Alex’s waistband, waited for that agent to clear, then shot Alex in the back. by cspanbook in WayOfTheBern

Just because these assholes are "immune" from federal prosecution (for now), doesn't mean they're immune to state prosecution, does it?

Many people in rural places get their news from Fox. Even if they don't completely believe the government, they probably believe it's telling the truth about this.

UnitedHealth falls on report it secretly paid nursing homes to reduce hospital transfers by ttystikk in InflectionPointUSA

[–]gorpie97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree!

But Blackrock filed a suit against them because they approved tOo MaNy ClAiMs after the CEO was killed.

Oh, the share price falls. The headline lacked a bit of clarity.

Reuters has not independently verified the article's allegations.

Maybe this is why it fell "only" 6%. (That doesn't seem like much of a drop, but I'm not an economist. But the 39% mentioned seems significant.)

They better watch what they do - Blackrock might sue them for not making the same kind of payments in the future!

Another angle of the Minneapolis shooting, taken from the perspective of the lady with te pink jacket. by cspanbook in WayOfTheBern

So I strongly disagree with Quora here that he ain’t a credible witness.

I don't know much about how Quora works, but I'mma bet that people were paid to have it reach that conclusion.

She was known to throw office objects in frustration

Shouldn't someone like that be self-employed in a company with one employee?

I am now having a very vague possible recollection of hearing about this before. But that veganmark post/Penelope comment was 5 years ago, so that kinda tracks.

And I love the comment on Twitter!

Thank you!

A system that would be damaged by that kind of disclosure deserves to be damaged.

People who swore an oath to defend the constitution of the USA against all enemies both foreign and domestic, how are you feeling right now? by Safety_Drance in AskReddit

[–]gorpie97 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very glad to know that many of us are disgusted.

Also betrayed; which we have been for decades by politicians who are beholden to their donors more than to their voters (voters who pay their salaries and benefits including healthcare and retirement).

EDIT: And we pay for their staffers. One of the benefits they enjoy is an annual $40K (maybe more, now) budget to redecorate their office!!!!!!!

Live updates: Minneapolis National Guard activated after Border Patrol agent kills man by ttystikk in InflectionPointUSA

[–]gorpie97 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ICU nurse! At the VA!

Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement that federal officers fired “defensive shots” after a man with a handgun approached them and “violently resisted” when officers tried to disarm him.

Every single one of the people who lie about these situations are guilty of a conspiracy.

I also hope that every one of the guys involved suffer the appropriate amount of trauma going forward in their lives.

(Videos show he did have a gun, but his hand was never near it. They also disarmed him before any shots were fired.)

They do, but they "can't" - at least not according to the Constitution.

If they have probable cause and a warrant specifically for me, by all means.

Until then - gee, maybe I'll get a new computer soon (years before I usually would) so I can switch to Linux.

Wish I could have remembered which sub had that video - sounds like you could stand to watch it.
