I don’t know if it’s the case here, but with Colbert’s identical issue (it was even about Talarico, but during the primaries), Colbert not only had offered, but had actually held 2 interviews with Crockett (Talarico’s primary opponent).
The first time, yes. The second time proved what history has proven countless times. Killing a bunch of people with a big military is easy. Occupations are really, really difficult.
In its history, the US has only had 2 really successful occupations, (West Germany and Japan after WWII), and both of those were because they occupied nations were cooperating with the US and its allies.
This entire scheme was a combination of market manipulation along with a universal price hike. A lot of very rich people got a lot richer. They got to engage in insider trading while massively increasing prices while pretending they had no choice.
Not too well. That still comes out to nearly 4 years to hit a billion dollars.
They can fine him for each failure to appear.
They just need to schedule him every minute of every day until he complies.
Gen X got skipped in politics. The boomers refused to cede power, and it’s like the Xers largely aged out of entering the political space.
Yeah. If they had the cotes to override a veto on this, they’d also be able to remove him from office.
I don’t get why he pled the fifth.
It’s not like they kicked his lawyer out of the building while trying to manipulate him into saying something they could stretch into justifications to prosecute him, right?
it’s the equivalent of someone with 10,000 in their bank account spending 1 dollar.
The Gaza genocide is horrific. But it also wasn’t on the ballot.
Anyone who didn’t vote Harris was saying that they saw absolutely no difference between the 2 candidates and are okay with everything else that’s been happening since last January that wouldn’t have under Harris.
Yeah, but it would have been easier to win the election by playing Weekend at Bernies with his corpse and letting the governor appoint a 6-year replacement.
Now there has to be a real election in November.
I was taught not to speak ill of the dead, so I’ll focus on something good about him:
He died.
I’d take a bloated corpse over the bloated turd we have today.
This is about having the goons enforcing Trump’s orders arrested.
They’re making ludicrous money manipulating the market.
Hey - I know Rick Scarborough.
He’s a bastard.
They traded their independence from the feds in exchange for free used equipment.
He had nephew he had been the legal guardian of he cut contact with when was 19 and Harlan Crowe stopped paying for his tuition.
He’s literally an Uncle Tom.
Honestly, it’s especially troubling with a cease fire. The lesson taken from there is that openly threatening the mass-murder of civilians is a legitimate strategy.
Yep. This is the argument to make to Republicans. We pay for socialized healthcare for Israel. Ask them to explain why we can justify that while also making cuts to other international healthcare initiatives and denying healthcare to Americans.
