No, because they're all connected to other connections.

Speaking only for myself, and not in any way, shape or form as an EO Mod, Facebook is evil. When Facebook first went public I took a look at it, created an account, and immediately knew it was bad news. Already knowing how it was used in academia, it was clear to me what would happen with it...

Fox News really isn't the propaganda arm that it was when it was invented and when Roger Ailes was still there. They're still homers, still rooting for the (conservative) home team, the taking heads and commentary and opinion show hosts in particular, but they no longer play the propaganda game...

The MSM at large, and CNN in particular, has become propagandists with press passes. People in general, liberals especially, tend to engage in projection, in order to deflect attention, where they conspicuously allege others are doing precisely what they are doing themselves. Trump colluded...

Handing out immunity like that, much like they did with Hillary's cohorts, should tell you that Mueller isn't really interested in the truth as much as he is in arriving at a report here he can recommend impeachment. Plea deals and immunity in lieu of prosecution are strong coercive incentives...

I read the thread title and thought to myself, "That's a pretty good trade."

He advised his client to refuse a presidential pardon He should be disbarred for that.

Behind every angry woman is a man who has absolutely no idea what he did wrong.

In the case of campaign finance laws, knowing and willful intent is the critical base of the law. Says so right there in the law itself. It's one of the laws you can legitimately plead ignorance. Absent a tape with clear and unambiguous intent on Trump's part, there's no way this is going...

That entire piece is predicated on the belief that the payments were made solely to influence the campaign. That's an easy one to allege, but far more difficult to prove. If Trump has a history of paying off mistresses at times when he was not a candidate, it becomes even more difficult to prove.

Says Cohen. Just because Cohen says it doesn't make it true. Cohen has his own motivations to lie or embellish, funny forget that. The FEC will tell you straight up that not every expenditure that influences a campaign is necessarily a campaign expenditure. If Trump has a history of paying...

Cohen's evidence is quite clear, if you believe him to be uber credible and that he didn't embellish in any way. A lot of people have said things under oath, especially during a plea negotiation to get a better deal, that were less than truthful.

Yep. That's exactly what it's like. A partisan impeachment to remove a president has never worked, and isn't likely to. It failed with Andrew Jackson. It failed spectacularly with Clinton. And it'll fail with Trump. The bipartisan impeachment of Nixon, which most importantly had the support of...

Of course, the legal definition of high crimes and misdemeanors is, offenses that the U.S. Senate deems to constitute an adequate ground for removal of the president, vice president, or any civil officer as a person unfit to hold public office and deserving of impeachment. So, I'll defer to...

As Alan Dershowitz duly noted, every candidate for president violates campaign finance laws. The penalty is a fine, unless the DOJ can prove Trump willfully and knowingly violated the statute for a corrupt purpose Mostly, violating campaign finance laws is the jaywalking of criminal acts, and...

I sense sarcasm.

That's like saying any crime committed against a person in a protected class (gay, Jew, black, etc) is automatically a hate crime even if their protected status played no roll in the crime. The fact that the timing fell so close to an election would be a slam dunk violation, if Trump has never...

On OJ, two things stuck for me. One was the time line that the prosecution dug their heels in for. I didn't buy that OJ could have done everything they said he did, and when they pushed the time line multiple times, it became less believable The other was the fact that the investigators seized...

All diet styles work. Forks, Paleo, Atkins, South Beach, Mediterranean,Grapefruit, Volumetrics, they all work. Some come with outrageous claims based on junk science, or simply blind faith. Trying to turn a species of omnivores into strictly herbivores, and then justifying it with with...

You are correct. The date you fail a medical examination is the date you become disqualified to drive, regardless of the expiration date of the previous medical card.
