    This is indeed a very interesting topic. My friend has wanted to do a gastric bypass for a very long time. But she is very afraid of facing problems after the operation. One of our friends had a similar operation and began to have very strong age spots all over her body. Nothing could help her, so she decided to go to the clinic https://www.nwcollege.edu/programs/advanced-aesthetics. There she helped to remove the stains with a laser. So you must be prepared for various consequences after such a serious operation.

    HS, since when is condemning fascism considered a bad thing in America?


    According to last night’s speech, only when Republicans do it.


    …or just MAGA Republicans.

    ….or just “the good” Republicans who’ve been intimidated by MAGA Republicans.

    Basically all Republicans, I guess.

    I don't like this type of thing. It's a political campaign speech posing as an "address to the nation."


    Yes.  I remember when addresses to the nation were to discuss important news events or threats to our country, and what the government is doing about it. I guess now the opposition political party a threat to our country, according to our President.

    Hoax. 

    Hoax.  The agents shouldn’t make judgments about the papers to be collected while on site, particularly because the sensitivity of some of the documents in question is such that many, if not all, of those agents lacked clearance to review them.  Any overreach could be (and, to my understanding, was) corrected later.

    Hoax.  You’re getting conspiratorial now.  Which, I suppose, is unsurprising given the Q circles in which you hang.  

     

    Face it.  Your main guy got caught with some pretty sensitive stuff for which he now has to answer.  Whining about what other people may or may not have possibly done if Jupiter was in line with Venus during a harvest moon in a leap year  with a La Niña isn’t going to change anything in that respect. 

    Trump should have Chef Jim Crow get admitted pro hac vice to help him out on this one.  Could drop the spatula on the government and show them what’s what.  A fine change to apply his reverse Pee Wee Herman defense: “I know I am but what are you?”  Should be wild!

     

     

    You're right about one thing.  The agents shouldn't make judgments about the nature of the papers.

    And it isn't okay for them to release photos of the papers so that people like you can speculate about the nature of the papers and make your own judgments

    Dude.

     

    •Its standard practice for FBI agents to catalog and inventory when conducting a search warrant, including photographs.

     

    For obvious reasons, and not so obvious ones.

     

    •the only reason they "released" that photo (it was in a Federal Court filing you dimwit) was because the former President filed a bull#### motion, allowing the DOJ to provide more evidence of the criming and obstruction. If Trump doesn't file a motion destined to fail, we dont have that photo and all that it portends. 

     

    There is only one side here slinging poo, and it ain't the DOJ. 

     

    If you lived outside of the right-wing media echo chamber, maybe you would understand that that photo provides some new information and confirms a lot of the reporting to-date. 


    I’m not defending anyone. I’m waiting for some facts to emerge. Right now there’s only posturing from Trump AND from the DOJ. The photo released by the DOJ is posturing. 

    I’m just saying that photo has no context and it doesn’t prove any more than the fact that there were documents in the residence. We already knew that. There’s an entire inventory. The inventory says “documents marked classified”.  I believed it at the time they released the inventory.
     

    You’re speculating. I’d rather wait until this whole story is developed before making any conclusions.

    Point made. 

     

    Sure. Trump had documents.

    But that photo provides zero context, except that the FBI and Justice Department shouldn't handle their investigation so cavalierly by releasing photos of their investigation.  Not a good look for them -- especially since they fought to release the warrant affidavit and are fighting to have a Special Master review what was seized.  Trump just might have done something wrong, but DOJ and FBI shouldn't be inconsistent.  It hurts their case, if they have one.

    Inflation Reduction Act Tell Me How This Works PLEASE !!

    So one of the big things in the inflation reduction act is increasing the size of the IRS to try to reclaim missed taxes. Wouldn't it make more sense to implement a consumption tax and decrease the size of the IRS? Avoid all those federal salaries and health care policies. This would tax those that have income from alternative means, no loopholes for the rich. Japan has had a consumption tax for over 30 years, a lot of growing pains could be avoided studying that history. 

     

    They should have hired 87,000 auditors to look at where our tax dollars are actually spent.

    We Need a Third Party

    in Politics, Polls, and Pundits

    Posted

     Effectively, there is already is a third large group of voters.  Independents.  They sway elections more so than far left or far right elements of the D or the R parties. They’re just not organized into a party with leadership or candidates, etc.

     

    We don’t really need a third party.  We need term limits and lobbying reform. We need Congress to do its job and not leave every piece of legislation to the President to issue by fiat. We need politicians to start acting like public servants, not an elite political class which hovers above the peons who just happen to be their constituents.  We need to back off the excessive news coverage of every presidential fart. Maybe then we’d get candidates who might be qualified to be president, instead of what we’ve seen in the recent past.

    Most dramatic sports moment you saw?

    in Off the Wall

    Posted

    The most dramatic sports moment I saw in person was Endy Chavez' catch in game 7 of the NLCS in 2006.  I was sitting up the leftfield line, so it all happened right in front of me.  The score was tied and he turned a two run shot into a double play.   He ran SO FAR to make that catch. Shea Stadium went nuts.  If the Mets would have won that game, then that catch would be famous. I suppose the second most dramatic was when Beltran struck out with bases loaded in the bottom of the 9th in that same game.

    Bill Murray > Chevy Chase


    Chevy Chase is so bad that nobody rates him as an as an actor.
    He can’t be overrated.

    Dane Cook was never funny.  Yes, I've seen the one about the sneeze and the one about holograms.  They both suck.  He was only popular because girls think hes cute.

    Pete Davidson is heroin Dane Cook.

    Lost in Translation has no redeeming value as entertainment.  Pretending to like it doesn't make you smart.

     


    Bill Murray is the most overrated actor of all time.

    And he seems like a douchy guy.
