    Harvard study shows that trigger warnings are fruitless and anxiety-inducing.

    I can’t put a link here, so google it, I guess

    Thanks! I honestly needed the explanation. I thought one doctor was escorting the other out and I’m thinking, “that’s not that funny”. It’s funnier now.

    I was devastated the first time I heard Nirvana played on a classic rock station.

    I saw Nirvana live about four months before Kurt Cobain died. I had to sneak out of the house to see them. My mom threw away my concert t-shirt. Good times.

    Do you often call people liars when they’re not lying, and then go and prove they’re not lying? I mean seriously, you’re so full of it.

    I simply was stating the video exists, which you quoted from. I said she corroborated it i.e. it wasn’t fake, since she did when she confirmed it but that she was taken out of context. Others in this thread keep saying it’s a deep-fake or doesn’t exist. I think your “liar” label belongs there instead.

    I make no claims to her culpability. It’s a ridiculous claim. She’s no more responsible than Trump is as far as I’m concerned. Those responsible are those that turned to violence.

    First off, you’re right it’s quash, not squash. :">

    The paying to not run a story as a private citizen is different than using the weight of the federal government to do it, implying you’d be complicit in foreign espionage. As for the rest, the FEC has set the burden of campaign violations very high. See John Edwards. The FEC, the justice department, and other prosecutors all looked into it and said, “Nah”. Even they would’ve pursued it, it may have ended up in a fine like Obama and Clinton had to pay when they did similar.

    Both Trump’s and H. Biden’s convictions will be over-turned.

    Biden’s because, even though Hunter’s own words convict him, they’re a violation of the 2nd amendment. Ironic because he’s convicted of statutes his father helped enact.

    Trump’s because it’s so obviously a politically motivated it’s barely even in dispute. CNN’s legal experts were trying to figure out how charges were even brought. There’s plenty to appeal – from the judge’s jury instructions to the fact the defense couldn’t even bring in an elections expert – but the fact that no underlying crime in the “conspiracy” was brought forth should be enough.

    Before I’m accused of being in the bag for Trump (I’m not, I’m an independent), I think definitely the classified documents case and possibly the Georgia election interference one were worth pursuing. Accepting that Biden, Pence, Obama all had classified documents too, Trump’s obstruction was top-tier, probably due to narcissistic pride.

    Conversely, I think Hunter is guilty of tax evasion and will be prosecuted. But Hunter Biden isn’t running for president, so theoretically it’s not really relevant. What will be interesting is if it brings out any more of the “10% of the Big Guy” dirt, but as I’m of the opinion Biden won’t be running (brokered convention) it will all go away.

    What gets lost in all this Hunter Biden thing is how we shifted from the laptop story being Russian disinformation to being a key element of the case and verified as legit by the FBI. I think an independent investigation needs to be pursued to find out what, if any, undue pressure the Biden administrator put on journalists and big tech to squash the story before an election, a clear violation of the First Amendment.

    Her daughter took it as part of a documentary. It’s amazing how many people are saying it doesn’t exist, despite Nancy corroborating. I guess that’s where we are now.

    So it sounds impressive but what you’re basically doing is using loans to build more things (business, houses, office buildings) then you can take out additional loans on the things you build and pay off the first loan. You can also buy and sell other types of assets and use clever accounting to show a loss over here to offset any gains over there.

    Some people think the 2020 election was “stolen” in the traditional sense – ballot stuffing, mysterious boxes at 3 AM, that kind of thing. There’s no evidence of that.

    Others, when they call it stolen, just have to point to “Russia gate”, one-sided media, ballot harvesting, a show impeachment. Constant media bias. Deep state liars who through texts talk about how they’ll get him. This time it’s “I’m gonna get Trump” prosecutions in an attempt to bankrupt his campaign and million dollar judgements for “crimes” without a victim. Weird that they all just seem to be coming around at the same time, even though so of his “crimes” are decades old.

    I’ve heard people who don’t like Trump say they’ll hold their nose now and vote for him now because it’s so blatantly obvious.
