Iowa republican caucus voters were polled and 30% said they wouldn’t vote for trump if he is convicted. Of course, the election is months away, so too many of them will surely backslide, but still. It was a higher percentage in New Hampshire, too.




Hyperbolic headline. His speeches “aren’t demanding the world’s attention like they used to.”



SCOTUS is going to have to weigh in real quick if they don’t just stay out of the whole thing.


I love mine. I had a Pebble, which I also loved, but the Apple Watch merges pretty seamlessly with the rest of my Apple stuff, and has extra features my Pebble doesn’t. I think they should either pay a usage fee to Masimo, or change their software. They’ve wasted enough money and time fighting it.



So hard to say if they will

  1. Rule that only trump has absolute immunity

  2. Rule that all presidents have absolute immunity

  3. Rule that trump had absolute immunity, but no other president has it starting…now!


Probably has a multi-million dollar deal to be either a talking head, or a corporate board member / lobbyist (or both).


That’s surprisingly wholesome news from Google. Thanks for updating me!


I used rebble for quite a while—super kudos to those folks—but eventually gave it up. The battery life was finally showing signs of loss and my wife had already made the switch to Apple Watch when her Pebble died.

I’m kind of surprised rebble was allowed to continue this long after FitBit bought then killed Pebble. I know they said rebble could exist, but IIRC, there was some hinting it wouldn’t be for too much longer. Glad they either forgot about it or just let it be.


I loved my Pebble watch so much! I actually still have it, but finally gave it up when they stopped supporting it. I still have it, in my curio case.


Minus one for that media player. Lack of controls is really irritating. I don’t care to be forced into vertical videos, either—despite what some puppets think.


If it cuts down the Reply to All good job chains, I’m for it.


“Touchtone”

Both trump and Biden are old enough to make it a dial tone. ;)


chip roy is an asshole. He worked for john cornyn and rafael “ted” cruz, and ghost wrote rick perry’s book. He’s a “burn it all down” republican (nearly libertarian), with a I Got Mine, Screw You position.


I don’t know about rot, but if he’s guilty he should pay the appropriate penalty, be it a fine, a prison sentence, or both.


His “Ahm just a simple country fella asking questions” bit is so tired. Dude went to Vanderbilt, then was magna cum laude at U Virginia Law, THEN got another law degree with honors at Oxford. In the 2000s he ran for Senate as a Democrat, then switched to Republican.

Jackass.




Is this the “I was only driving the getaway car” defense?


He was hedging, but the reporter kept pressing and barr finally said something like, “Obviously I’d have to vote for whoever was the nominee.”



I mean, look at bill barr. He thinks trump is a fool and said of the current legal troubles “He’s toast”, but when pressed he said he’d still vote for trump over a Democrat.




Absolutely! I went up with my dad years ago. No way could he have walked down the mountain.


What’s with that last bit? It’s completely the opposite.

Prosecutors are the ones petitioning the judge to review the attorney’s conflict of interest.


You just reminded me of this guy I worked with about 30 years ago. One time, pretty much out of the blue, he said “black people are from Jupiter and they’re a very war-like race.”

My dad and I were at some event with this guy. We didn’t go to events with him any more after that.


I like many concepts of Anarchy, but until we have Star Trek levels of free unlimited power and food, I don’t think it would work.




The former custodian at one of my schools—she resigned because she wouldn’t get vaccinated—had a giant IVERMECTIN graphic on the sides of her car.



For 9 months, he’ll claim he doesn’t have them and also that he had the right to take them, even though they don’t exist (and also he shows them to folks at the resort).

In a year, he’ll claim he has been too busy to figure out which boxes the relics are stored in and needs time to separate out his golf shirts and newspaper clippings from among the relics, and also he doesn’t have them and has them and had every right to take them, and also Bibi begged him to take the relics as a gift to America.



It has, but also huge amounts of the money goes directly to giant corporations like Boeing, Raytheon, Lockheed-Martin, Huntington Ingalls, etc.
