Ukrainian Missiles Are Blowing Up The Black Sea Fleet's New Missile Corvettes Faster Than Russia Can Build Them

We should definitely keep immigrants out... they might do something wild like fill the jobs we don't have workers for, make up for the Baby Drought, be less likely to commit a crime than a citizen, and be a Net Positive Economic Impact like they have been for decades.

Just sayin'.

There's a Military purge going on now, with the KGB (as the Russian people still call them) replacing Generals and Aides.

This is important because the only force in Russia that can take power from Putin is the Military.

Lee is a bipartisan agitator, lol.

The Painless Pole has become the Painful Troll, lol.

"The documents offer previously unreported details of Conservative Partnership Institute (CPI) trainings and "bootcamps" for congressional staff at CPI's sprawling Maryland ranch, and lavish, star-studded retreats for members of Congress " mostly members of the far-right Freedom caucus " at a string of Florida resorts.

They also show how CPI, widely described as the "nerve center of the Maga movement", enlisted its own network of affiliated organizations along with like-minded far-right organizations " some classified as hate groups by experts " as well as individual extremists to promote anti-immigrant, anti-LGBTQ+ and anti-vaccine policies, along with others premised on the false claim that the 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump.

Heidi Beirich, co-founder and chief strategy officer at the Global Project against Hate and Extremism, said speakers featured at CPI events included some "seriously extreme people", and indicated "how far right the Maga movement has become"."

- The only real evidence of that is Cohen's word

You seem to have intentionally missed the parts where Cohen's testimony was corroborated by both other witness testimony and documentary evidence.

Look at the guy... he was obviously starving!

Let's talk about Senate shenanigans showing signs of success....

"Russia's Deputy Chief of the General Staff was arrested today.

3 more Russian generals were arrested today. Belarus' Chief of the General Staff was fired today.

Vladimir Putin flew to Belarus unexpectedly to discuss the situation with Belorussian President Lukashenko. Is an army's mutiny on the way in Russia? "

"Based on the historical correlations and the Dow's year-to-date price-only gain of 5.6%, Biden's chances of winning re-election are 58.8%.

Those odds will rise if the stock market gains more between now and Election Day, and fall if the market declines."

"Even if the electronic prediction markets weren't sending such mixed messages, it would be hard to show that their track records are better than the stock market's. That's because, without a large sample, it's very difficult for a pattern to meet traditional standards of statistical significance."

Bingo!

Which is why Cohen is referred to as the "Accomplice" in the Judge's Jury instructions rather than by name.

Apparently because some Justices feel they should allow politicians to veto SC decisions and dictate how they vote.... because politicians are openly owned by billionaires and corporations now, and that's still a bit sticky a proposition for SC Justices, although they are doing their best at working around any ethical considerations.

This was a popular feature of Nazi Germany; the wealthy Elites supporting the Fuhrer, and the Courts looking the other way.

"Earlier this month, Yuri Kuznetsov, the head of the Russia's Defense Ministry's personnel department, was detained on suspicion of taking a bribe.

And Major General Ivan Popov, who had headed Russia's 58th Army, was "arrested on suspicion of fraud," Russian state news agency Tass reported on Tuesday.

Shamarin is reported to be a top aide to Russia's top general, Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov."

.

According to Russia watchers like Inside Russia, the claims of, "fraud, stealing, and bribery" are laughable, as all those things are SOP in the Russian Military.

And Popov is extremely popular with the regular troops, so there could be some reactions to his arrest.

OK.... Wait for it......

"Writing alone in a concurring opinion, Justice Clarence Thomas appeared to argue that the nation's high court should not be policing racial gerrymandering at all, going so far as to criticize the court's decision in a landmark case ending segregation in the US as "extravagant."

In its monumental 1954 decision in Brown v Board of Education, the Supreme Court sought a "boundless view of equitable remedies" through "extravagant uses of judicial power" to end racist segregation, according to Justice Thomas.

He said he wrote separately to address whether established voting rights are "faithful" to the US Constitution. "In my view, the Court has no power to decide these types of claims," he wrote.

"Drawing political districts is a task for politicians, not federal judges," arguing that the court's "insistence" on hearing cases involving racist voter suppression "led it to develop doctrines that indulge in race-based reasoning inimical to the Constitution."

He argued that the court should "abandon" these kinds of cases and "leave redistricting to politicians."

As is obvious from this thread, the smidgen of a concience rwingers might have once had about Justice and Fairness and the American Way has been completely replaced by the Trump Cult with "winning at any cost", or as on wingnut said:

"In 2018, Bongino said, "My entire life right now is about owning the libs. That's it."

The Supremely Unethical Court (cartoon)

"The 6-3 ruling from the high court reverses the ruling from a three-judge district court panel that found GOP lawmakers improperly used race when designing Congressional District 1, represented by Republican Rep. Nancy Mace.

In a majority opinion written by Justice Samuel Alito, the court's conservative justices said that the district court's findings were "clearly erroneous." Race and politics "closely correlate" in South Carolina, and voters who challenged the congressional lines failed to provide direct evidence of a racial gerrymander, the Supreme Court said.

"The fact of the matter is that politics pervaded the highly visible mapmaking process from start to finish," Alito wrote.

In a dissenting opinion written by Justice Elena Kagan, and joined by Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson, the three liberal justices accused the majority of cherry-picking evidence presented during the lower court proceedings and "reworking the law" to impede racial-gerrymandering cases.

Washington " The Supreme Court on Thursday maintained the lines of a congressional district in South Carolina that a lower court had invalidated as an unlawful racial gerrymander, delivering a win to Republican mapmakers who said they used politics, not race, as the predominant factor when drawing the district bounds.

"It is to respect the plausible " no, the more than plausible " findings of the district court that the state engaged in race-based districting. And to tell the state that it must redraw District 1, this time without targeting African-American citizens.""

Yes, but you are a dedicated dufus who has fallen for the Lawfare Lie as hard as any dedicated Trumper; you should be standing in front of the Courthouse wearing a red tie and white shirt along with the other Cultists.

What Trump did in Manhattan is against the law there, and they have every right, and every duty, to charge and try him.

Meanwhile, back in the NBA... Mavs come back to win Game One in the Wolf's House.

"Her critiques of Trump during the primary grew even sharper after the former president mocked the absence of her deployed husband and called for all of her donors to be "permanently barred from the MAGA camp."

"In that moment, he showed that with that kind of disrespect for the military, he's not qualified to be the president of the United States, because I don't trust him to protect them," Haley said in February.

Then, days before dropping out, she said she no longer believed she was bound by the Republican National Committee pledge to support the party's eventual presidential nominee."

O, that this too too solid flesh would melt
Thaw and resolve itself into a dew!
Or that the Everlasting had not fix'd
His canon gainst self-slaughter! O God! God!

How weary, stale, flat and unprofitable,
Seem to me all the uses of this world!
Fie on't! ah fie! 'tis an unweeded garden,
That grows to seed; things rank and gross in nature
Possess it merely. That it should come to this!

But two months dead: nay, not so much, not two:
So excellent a king; that was, to this,
Hyperion to a satyr; so loving to my mother
That he might not beteem the winds of heaven
Visit her face too roughly. Heaven and earth!

Must I remember? why, she would hang on him,
As if increase of appetite had grown
By what it fed on: and yet, within a month"

When Hamlet says "woman," he means Gertrude. He sees her as morally weak because she has betrayed her husband by marrying his brother, Claudius, just one month after her husband's death."
