Bragg Manhattan DA charges tfg? Hush money. tfg “INDICATED!”
:think: Presumably if a non-involved lawyer he believes his interpretation of the law :boxing: to be super-critical and fears it might be missed by everybody in court – oh the injustice! – his correct line of approach is to either (1) just STFU, or, if he cannot restrain his enthusiasm (2) pester th...

Diamonds are cheap to mine. The days of them being difficult to extract and hence ultra-expensive are long, long gone. It's the De Beers cartel that keeps prices artificially high, bullying or buying out anybody selling diamonds at their true value, restricting global supply, and marketing to ensure...

The dregs of birther remainders.
Shrouding birthers is newsworthy! :towel: Oh c'mon bob! "Shrouding" implies a deliberate act of not engaging with someone trying to promote an argument. This is simple indifference, nobody cares; insofar as they are noticed at all, the birthers are tossed into the same "are they stil...

Why yes, fuckhead, you can most certainly respond freely to what Ms. Daniels said. Farcical. Katie Phang's comment on Twitter was that Trump has the option to respond to Stormy's narrative, yes, he is free to testify in the trial, those are the rules and that is his right. I'm sorry, my hearing's, ...

Therein lies one of the sadnesses of American life: perhaps this argument could happen anywhere, and anybody in any country can lose their temper, and some will will progress to violent intentions or actual violence. But because guns are accessible, instead of a fist fight, a complaint to authoritie...

Bragg Manhattan DA charges tfg? Hush money. tfg “INDICATED!”
To be honest, I’m surprised more trials don’t end in acquittals. But I don’t think jurors really understand (or care about) reasonable doubt. Not a lawyer, not a juror, not a jurist, but that might well be true. I'm not a complete fuckwit but I'm sure I'd struggle with managing the evidence and arg...

Checks, personal or otherwise: organizations typically allow directors and staff to purchase items or services with personal funds and later be reimbursed by the organization. So a personal payment is not direct evidence of a payment by the company. But but but … if the organization's records show a...

That's sad. I can't claim to have known Gregg as a flesh-and-blood being but I enjoyed his posts, his explanations, his attitudes, his opinions.
My sympathy to those closer to Gregg whose loss is so much greater.

Good luck with it Foggy! "Sweet sorrow" seems to be the operative phrase. Even for non-believers, it works well to devise a memorial service that not only works for the living participants (giving them joy, closure, acceptance, snacks, whatever they wish) but also one that you think the ma...

How or why the Neanderthals and Denisovans disappeared about 40,000 years ago is the subject of speculation. Sadly, I think we were very, very mean to them, to the point where we wiped them from the face of the planet. :blackeye: Indeed. However, that hypothesis is not proven (yet?) and there are o...

Interesting views, thanks all. I hadn't considered the English (? I don't know its history) pantomime tradition. Of course dames are cross-dressing and thus (arguably?) drag, but doesn't raise the same doubt in my mind, probably because it is so cartoonish. Probably Barry Humphries too. Anyway, the ...

There's a natural tendency to look at the past where the pews were full and think that the expression of doctrine in services back then was the cause of that. One of the biggest traps in logical thinking is mistaking correlation for causality, so it's pretty natural to think that if you resume Lati...
