Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I'm wondering if the next line is "Proud Mary keep on burning" or "Carry me home to see my kin"

Sir, can you just scribble two 0s beside the 30, and initial. Thanks!

How did you get that picture from FlyingSquid???
Only possible explanation I can come up with is that it's an alt and he posted from the wrong account.
There's really no other way; I mean, squid doesn't even have it bookmarked, how could someone else get it

“You have failed to explain, much less justify why there should be a delay”. Daaaaaaamn judge has forfeited his fucks.
If I had to deal with the same smooth-brain at work every day while they insist to make my job more difficult for no other reason than they can, I'd lose a fuck or two along the line as well.
Average Teen I Deal With Daily: WHAT? Aw, HELL naw...I ain't tryna get lunch detention for tardies!
Me: Holy shit...you got lunch detention for accruing five tardis without even trying?! Phenomenal!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
He’s fucked.
The original article contains 275 words, the summary contains 2 words. Saved 99.99%. I'm alive!
Totally a humanoid-type person.
You made me choke on my beer. Awesome comment.
Bad human
2/275 would be 99.38% (repeating of course) saved. Please update your human code with a math lesson module. Your humor module works just fine though.
I think this makes them a good human... Since like 99% of humans are bad at math it makes sense since they would make this mistake....
I think 100.62% of us can agree with that
Yeah, and fuck the remaining -1.62%
Good notbot.
Good human
Good bot
LOL, antagonizing the judge every step of the way and then asking for a favor.
Donald [pausing between social media posts inciting violence against the clerk]: I need a favor.
happy Letitia James noises
actual consequences? could it be?

I think he's doing both.
How does he have any money left to litigate at this point?
His current move is a pressure campaign to get the RNC to pay off his legal debts. Those spineless fucks might just do it.
Splendid. Every dollar to Trump's lawyers is a dollar that isn't buying a Trump advert.
He was making Eric go back to college for a law degree but Eric went to Disneyland instead and blew the tuition on Dole whips
Dole whips are very good. I get it
Last I heard he's grifting his gullible supporters for about $100k/day, but it's still unsustainable.
The NY judgement alone is $78k in interest per day until Trump pays it.
I read the other day that Trump had about $550 million in liquid cash & he can't touch $50M of it without other loans coming due. Loans he can't pay & pay the judgement at the same time.
E. Jean Carroll is about to sue him again.
Yeah, I imagine his non rich maga acolytes would be out of money soon, and his donors are sick of paying his legal bills. 🤔
There has to be some atrophy there surely.
Like imagine you've been working hard all these months and donating whatever you can afford... surely there's a non-zero number of people each week that think "you know what, there's better ways I could spend this money".
IOUs written on colored construction paper with crayons. I'm guessing.
Get it right, lib.
He only uses the finest sharpies. The best. Everybody's saying it. Believe me.
Or written on the constitution.
No, he already used that as toilet paper
Every judge who isn't corrupt should know what the playbook is by now and deny that shit.
Of all the judges this engoron guy is the only one that seems able to deal with them as you would any other scum bag. Everyone else is so busy trying to act impartial they're paralysed by inaction.
Do or do not. There is no try.
