Bragg Manhattan DA charges tfg? Hush money. tfg “INDICATED!”

I just learned the New York Times is publishing the trial transcripts in pdf form. This looks to obviate the need to rely on the yeoman services of Shad Riley (85 followers including me) to convert them.

I haven't heard much about this proposal so am off to do research, but my first question would be 'Does this mean they become active-duty Space Force units or a Space National Guard?' and my second question would be 'if the latter, aren't they remaining a National Guard attached to the state and if ...

One of Noem’s claims is that she met Kim Jong Un and implied she stared him down. Now it’s being said that that was an error in the book. The problem with that… Noem recited the audiobook herself! And said she knew about "little tyrants" from her time teaching Sunday School for little kid...

I also speak judge: You are not going to cause a mistrial or a reversal on appeal by making this statement to the press. Good try.

I believe the US Army dropped the requirement that you must have a combat arms MOS and been engaged in combat to get the CIB. You are still required to have been engaged in actual combat, though. I thought they had simply created a distinct Combat Medical Badge and Combat Action Badge for non-infan...

Indeed, I'm all kinds of proud. I tell people that one of my few regrets was that he wasn't still in the UK while I was serving there so I could bring him in as a guest and treat him to a pint at the Embassy's in-house pub.

Arizona's Senate has voted to repeal a 1864 law banning abortion, the last major push in the Democrat-led effort to erase the law from state books.
So the newer law will be in effect which was ... 15 weeks? I can't remember now.
