His opinion is a bit more complicated than “federal marijuana laws are unconstitutional”… it’s more like “federal marijuana laws are being enforced unconstitutionally.” Which is, basically, correct. The fact marijuana remains a schedule 1 drug under federal law but can be bought and sold at retail stores in most states under state law is an unsustainable clusterfuck of constitutional law.

I know the point has been made here before, but George Washington, having seen what smallpox could do to troops in close quarters, demanded that his troops undergo the vaccination therapy that was available in his day for smallpox. That’s a founding fucking father.

Fox News host suggests Florida building collapse is ‘God’s plan’ (Raw Story, sorry for not providing a better site, with video clip from FOX News Channel)
Fox News host Harris Faulkner suggested on Tuesday that victims of the building collapse in Surfside, Florida are part of “God’s plan.”
Following a press conference about the latest rescue efforts for dozens of missing people, Faulkner connected the tragedy to accusations that Democrats are trying to “defund the police.”
“You can have all the rules and the codes but you have to have enforcement behind them,” she explained. “And I liken that to where we are with the defund the police conversation. It’s like, yeah, you can have all these laws but law enforcement without police doesn’t really count.”
But Faulkner said that she also has hope that more victims will be recovered alive.
“This is not hope against hope at every turn,” she opined. “This is hope backed up by faith backed up by facts.”

COVID-19 ‘Vaccines’ Are Gene Therapy
mRNA ‘Vaccines’ Fulfill None of the Criteria for a Vaccine
To start, let’s take a look at some basic definitions of words. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a vaccine is:1
“A product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease, protecting the person from that disease.”
Immunity, in turn, is defined as:“Protection from an infectious disease,” meaning that “If you are immune to a disease, you can be exposed to it without becoming infected.”

re: #8 jaunte
It seems that border counties don’t want them:
Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has had to tweak a so-called disaster declaration he issued at the beginning of the month that claims an immigration “crisis” at the southern border, removing four Rio Grande Valley counties that refused to participate in his stunt, local advocates said. In total, 11 counties have been removed from the document, while a number of others have been added, Border Report said.
“Nothing says ‘this is a real disaster’ like the phrase ‘county leaders have chosen to participate in this partnership, which is reflected in this amended disaster declaration,’” American Immigration Council policy counsel Aaron Reichlin-Melnick dryly tweeted. “‘Cause we all know the best disaster is the one we choose to participate in!” I mean, where is the lie, folks?
“Migrant advocate organizations and residents have repeatedly pressured local officials in the Rio Grande Valley to not go along with Abbott’s plans, and some saw Abbott’s revised plans as a step in the right direction,” Border Report said.
“For weeks, @LUPE_rgv and allies have demanded all 4 RGV counties NOT cooperate with Abbott’s border disaster declaration. Now, all four RGV counties are OUT of the disaster declaration. County judges listened to border residents, agreeing with us: there is no border crisis,” La Unión del Pueblo Entero (LUPE) organizer Danny Diaz wrote in a Twitter thread. “Over 1,200 RGV residents and all of the county judges said no. And now Abbott has removed the RGV from the disaster declaration list. So, why is Gov. Abbott even coming here this Wed? There is NO place for political stunts at the expense of our community.”

Polish church report lists sex abuse of over 300 children (ABC)
It is unlikely any of the people in this criminal scheme will ever see jail, but it is very likely hundreds of millions of people around the world will continue to support this criminal organisation with their time and money.
WARSAW, Poland — In its latest report released Monday on the sexual abuse of minors, Poland’s Catholic Church lists 292 clergymen who are alleged to have abused over 300 boys and girls from 1958 though 2020.
The cases were reported to church authorities from mid-2018 until the end of 2020. The reports came from the victims, their families, other clergymen, the media and from other sources.
At an online conference in Warsaw, the head of Poland’s Catholic Church, Archbishop Wojciech Polak, apologized to the victims and asked their forgiveness, echoing apologies he has made before.

I looked him up. Wikipedia, the font of all human ken (citation needed) says until February of this year he operated a clinic in Schaumburg, Illinois. He shut it down in February after the FDA warned him about selling fake Covid-19 cures.
The FDA took down his Website promoting Vitamin D and Vitamin C as a panacea for Covid-19 in April. At that time the FDA also warned social media sites where he was promoting it.
His personal Website gets about the same monthly hits according to Quantcast as NIH.

I’ve lost any respect I had left for the Sheriff. It’s funny, because when he was first elected he said the border was a federal issue for federal agents, and focused on local crime and public safety, but was corrupted by the siren song of attention and money you get grandstanding about the border. He slaps on a cowboy outfit to go to Washington but wears nothing of the sort when he’s home. All an act, but absolutely despicable.

Yes. They’re master manipulators. Honesty isn’t something they care about, but optics can get them re-elected.
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un berated senior ruling party and government officials for their failures in the fight against the coronavirus, which created a ‘huge crisis’ for the country, state media reported,” Politico reports.
“The alleged ‘grave incident’ in North Korea’s pandemic fight was not specified in the report Wednesday from the North’s official Korean Central News Agency.”
“North Korea has claimed to have had no cases of coronavirus infections throughout the pandemic, despite testing thousands of people and sharing a porous border with its ally and economic lifeline China, where the first Covid-19 cases were confirmed in late 2019.”
Also
North Korean state television aired an unusual interview Friday in which a Pyongyang resident said he and others living in the capital were “heartbroken” to see how much weight the country’s leader Kim Jong Un had lost.”
“Kim has been shown in North Korean state media looking noticeably thinner in recent weeks, surprising and befuddling many experts who study the country. Pyongyang has not officially acknowledged any changes to Kim’s weight or health, so the interview amounts to the most official confirmation to date of the secretive North Korean leader’s sudden change of appearance.”

I’ve considered having my DNA “done.” (Is that like the “having your colors done” thing from a couple decades ago?) I suspect I wouldn’t learn much because we’re super boring and very English/Scandinavian. Mr. C., on the other hand, might be interesting. We learned our daughter is a Tay-Sachs carrier-of the Ashkenazi Jewish variety (very thorough genetic testing before she got pregnant.) No worries that their children will have it as her husband isn’t a carrier. Not a surprise since he’s Chinese. Anyway, we figure she probably got it through her father’s German side, but who knows for sure?

And that’s why I think that there could be 10 votes for this legislation. It’s not as though it involves spending money on the poor or raising taxes on the wealthy. It’s a very minimal piece of legislation — and several senators may not want to respond to ads that paint them as racists. The 7 who voted to convict Trump, plus possibly Tim Scott, Capito, Cornyn, and Portman. After all GOP senators supported the Juneteenth holiday. This is another easy vote.

re: #213 teleskiguy
So funny how aa state that borders Nebraska (Colorado) has had legal medical cannabis for 21 years.
When Colorado made it legal for any use, there were serious complaints in the Unicameral to close all the rural roads going from the bordering counties, and build a sand berm along the state line to prevent smuggling.
Ranchers and farmers loudly objected, as there are only eleven paved roads which cross the state line (one of those is Interstate 76). That would effectively cut off their agricultural machinery from crossing the state line where they might own property in both states.
Sheriffs Departments bordering Colorado also pushed for the road closures (because no one could ever use the paved roads for this supposed smuggling, and apparently no one ever did it before).
Okay, I yelled out the front door “hey kids get off their lawn or I’ll call the sheriff.”
I am now officially old.
They left.

From Juanita Jean’s, the World’s Most Dangerous Beauty Salon
Because everybody loves a parade, it is shocking that one of our favorite guys couldn’t draw a crowd big enough to move a couch much less a political campaign.
Remember this charming couple, Mark and Patricia McCloskey, who pulled weapons on a Black Lives Matter parade down their street?
Well, he kicked off his campaign for Senate this week on his one year anniversary of keeping the neighborhood safe for privileged white lawyers wearing dirty, tacky clothes. The newspaper says that tens of people showed up, even with free food and big names draws.
(more)
That crowd in the bottom photograph looks like McCloskey’s campaign spontaneously aborted.
With all deference to those referring to the election lie as the “Big Lie” I will have to respectfully disagree. The Big Lie has always been that government doesn’t work. The image of the incompetent bureaucrat has been around as long as I can remember and it probably goes back further than that.This image serves two purposes. Competent conservatives use it to convince us that government is bloated and that it is incapable of making our lives better. They use this image to justify cutting social programs to the bone to justify their tax cuts for the rich. No one wants the image of taking food out of the mouths of the starving so Richie Rich can afford another yacht. So, instead we have the image of welfare queens in Cadillacs sitting around and eating bon bons.

They were serving a search warrant working with the state drug task force (they only work on trafficking and manufacture) when the sheriff and the deputy shot the man. He is in Regional West Medical Center in Scottsbluff after the sheriff provided aid and the Bayard city ambulance company transported him to the hospital.
State law requires a grand jury weigh the evidence of any police shooting (whether or not they killed the person). Because of that, police departments will normally ask an outside force to gather evidence.
In this case, Sheriff Milo Cardenas and the county prosecutor have both asked the Nebraska State Patrol conduct the investigation. The State Patrol will draw investigators from all over the state to Bayard to investigate.
The street there remains closed tonight as a crime scene.
The last time a grand jury was convened about a police shooting here was last year, when a Scott’s Bluff County deputy was serving a court summons on a man. He released a vicious dog from his workshop to attack the deputy, and the deputy killed the dog.
The grand jury in that case determined from dash camera and uniform camera video that the release was deliberate and the deputy was in immediate danger.
re: #230 Anymouse 🌹🏡😷
That’s also an explanation of why calling the sheriff over fireworks probably isn’t a good idea.
The sheriff and one deputy were over on the other side of the county from me working a serious crime. The other deputy would be minding the store and the county jail. No one would have been available anyway.
As for the dipshytes launching fireworks from the church property, the village marshal just came by the church and ran them off. He’s just hanging out over there now to make sure they don’t come back.

Millions skipped church during the pandemic. Will they return? (Scottsbluff, Nebr. Star-Herald)
TL;DR, probably not, and a spate of churches collapsing is predicted nationwide.
Smaller organizations with older congregations that struggled to adapt during the pandemic are in the greatest danger of a downward spiral from which they can’t recover, said the Rev. Gloria E. White-Hammond, lecturer at the Harvard Divinity School and co-pastor of a church in Boston.
On the Maine coast, the pandemic proved to be the last straw for the 164-year-old Waldoboro United Methodist Church.
Even before COVID-19 swept the world, weekly attendance had dipped to 25 or 30 at the white-clapboard New England church that could hold several hundred worshippers. The number further dwindled to five or six before the final service was held Sunday, said the Rev. Gregory Foster.
The remaining congregants realized they couldn’t continue to maintain the structure, and decided to fold the tent, Foster said.
“We can’t entirely blame everything on COVID. But that was just the final blow. Some people have not been back at all,” he said.

In Charlotte, North Carolina, Temple Beth El was closed during the pandemic but kept congregants in touch through events like “challah day.” Volunteers baked over 900 loaves of the bread, which were delivered to homes so worshippers could share them over a Shabbat meal.
There will be no returning to “normal” after the pandemic, said Rabbi Dusty Klass. “There were people who went home and may never come back to the sanctuary. They may just pray from their couch. It’s up to us to make sure they have the opportunity.”
Since I seem to be by myself here, now for something different:
Why Do South Carolina Liquor Stores Have Red Dots? (Goes to the blog of Robert F. Moss)
In my post on the origin of the term “package store,” I mentioned that in South Carolina liquor stores are often called “red dot stores.” The reason for that is simple: almost all of the ones in the state seem to have at least one if not multiple big red dots on their signs or painted on the sides of their buildings. But why did owners start painting those red dots on them in the first place?
South Carolinians often speculate various explanations: that it’s because liquor stores owners needed a way for the people who couldn’t read could to find their stores, or because it represents a red sun because the states liquor stores were originally opened from dawn to dusk. The real answer lies back in the swirl of odd and often puzzling alcohol control legislation that emerged in the wake of Prohibition’s repeal.

Conservatives got so absurd, they posted a photograph of what they claimed were her feet in a bathtub surrounded by luxury to prove she was a faux-socialist.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez foot photo identified by foot fetishists as someone else (The Independent, January 9, 2019)
Wikifeet as a vast catalogue of (mostly) women’s feet, including Rep. Ocasio-Cortez. (Knowledge of such sites is just part of my day job as a bodice-ripper Romance editor. Don’t judge me. /s)
The photo in question, which was originally shared on Reddit and 4Chan, shows a woman’s feet and legs in a bathtub.
However, despite users suggesting the photo was originally uploaded by the New York Congresswoman to Instagram in 2016, as it was overlaid with the text “alexandria ocasio-cortez.instagram.post.9-3-2016,” a site dedicated to foot fetish photos was able to prove otherwise - with the photo actually belonging to model and political activist Sydney Leathers, Vice reported.
A ‘Wikifeet’ forum user was able to answer the question of whether it was actually Ms Ocasio-Cortez’s feet pictured by cross-referencing existing photos of the Congresswoman’s feet in sandals on Wikifeet with the circulating photo.
According to the user who pointed out that it was not Ms Ocasio-Cortez in the photo - it was as simple as noticing the differences in how the pictured feet were flexed and the length of the toes compared to what the politician’s feet actually look like.
“Because we can’t dorsi- or plantar-flex our second to fifth toes independently I knew it wasn’t a matter of the toe being bent,” the Wikifeet member explained to Vice. “I thought that maybe she has some form of brachydactyly but her Wikifeet page has clear evidence to the contrary. So it was clear to me that it wasn’t her feet.”

It worked well in 2016 because so many voters were indifferent or stayed home, a high turnout among the rabid True Believers made a big difference.
But that did not work in 2020. Despite a record GOP turnout, the Democratic people convinced enough people that indifference was dangerous.

They’ve achieved their goals anyway: Cost the taxpayers millions of dollars so they don’t have to support things like social services, promote a metric fuquetonne of conspiracy theories surrounding free and fair elections, stripped power from the Arizona Secretary of State (a Democrat), but only until the next election when the law can be renewed (if a Democrat wins again), got in some good racist talking points on China, compromised the security of people’s information with that stunt of taking information to Montana, &c.
China is facing its worst power shortage in a decade. That’s a problem for the whole world
Hong Kong (CNN Business) - China is in the middle of a huge power crunch as extreme weather, surging demand for energy and strict limits on coal usage deliver a triple blow to the nation’s electricity grid. It’s a problem that could last for months, straining the country’s economic recovery and weighing on global trade.
Guangdong province — a manufacturing center responsible for $1.7 trillion, or more than 10%, of China’s annual economic output and a bigger share of its foreign trade — has been rationing power for over a month. The restrictions have forced companies across the province to shut down for a few days per week. Some local authorities are warning that power rationing could last through the end of the year.

We are lucky to be protected in our valley. But we are seeing a lot more highly localized supercells, and if one of those unloads itself at the head of a sheltered valley, it can send a torrent of water downstream all at once.
That happened five years ago: a tree blocked a culvert in the lower part of the village and flooded out several houses.

Flash flooding is a serious threat in the American Southwest, where the dry hard ground of the desert can get over-saturated in a real hurry, and even a relatively minor storm can cause localized flooding.

I was in Tempe, AZ in 1979 when another 5” of rainfall would have been enough to collapse Horseshoe Lake dam upstream, which would have produced a cascade effect on the other dams downstream and sent a 15-foot wall of water throughout the part of town where I was living.

This reminds me of a discussion that I had with my 20th century history class before the pandemic times. I was talking about the history of Confederate statues and memorials particularly the timing of when and where within the municipalities (some of them appropriate land from Black communities or placed them on the edge of or on former Black communities) they appeared as well as some of the removals that took place before this big push we’re experiencing.
I made this same point about private property. I wanted to give an example of something I might put up that others might object to and all I could come up with on the spot was Jerry Garcia. I looked around and realized they didn’t know who Jerry Garcia was. I asked and one student raised his hand. I simply said Google him. I felt old!!

i was thinking back on my early education re the civil war
K-6 in the 60’s and on from there
the way it was taught, in short, was the country broke in two (though the landmass never changed), fought itself (brother against brother) and came back together as one happy family.
that’s not what happened at all.
of course this is over obvious now to most
the south left the union.
what remained of the north was the continued united states
the confederacy was a separate country that made war on the united states
the confederacy lost the war
the previously seceding states were readmitted

I think it was more that they didn’t inform the owners of the scope of the structural issues at first (after the 2018 inspection/report), but that by this year, they had: but the “issue”, now, was the projected cost of the repairs: $15M.
Last night’s network news reporting on the Miami collapse flashed a screenshot of a document with which I am familiar - by experience on condo boards - a breakdown of the repair costs pro-rated by unit [by size]: the sums cited ranged from $80K to $336K. Assuming condominium rules are the same, I think it would take a (majority? supermajority?) vote of the unit-owners to authorize the expenditure.
And it’s not unreasonable to assume that a number them were going to balk at the expense….

Good start.
The U.S. Air Force Academy has distributed actor and activist George Takei’s graphic memoir “They Called Us Enemy,” which recounts his family’s incarceration during World War II, to cadets as part of a new reading initiative. NBCNews
New York City, NY Mayor: New York City’s mayoral primary was thrown into chaos on Tuesday after election officials withdrew their initial tabulation of the contest’s ranked-choice votes, just hours after releasing a tally showing a dramatic tightening in the results.The city Board of Elections, which has long been excoriated as a den of incompetence, nepotism, and old-school political patronage, at first offered offered little in the way of explanation for the startling turn of events, beyond a lone tweet saying, “We are aware there is a discrepancy in the unofficial RCV round by round elimination report.” The board removed the results from its website, replacing them with a statement that read, in its entirety, “Unofficial Rank Choice Results Starting on June 30.”
The most obvious “discrepancy” had nothing to do with the ranked-choice tabulations but rather the total number of votes cast: Before the board posted its tweet, frontrunner Eric Adams had issued a press release calling attention to the fact that many more votes were included in Tuesday’s retracted results (preserved at the Internet Archive) compared to the figures reported on election night, almost 942,000 vs. just shy of 800,000.
Late on Tuesday night, the board finally explained the disparity. Confirming earlier reports that it had failed to clear test votes from its systems, it said in a statement that the errant tallies had “included both test and election night results, producing approximately 135,000 additional records.” As a result, those ranked-choice tabulations, which showed Adams leading Kathryn Garcia just 51-49 in the 11th and final round, may bear no resemblance to reality.
Officials will supposedly try again on Wednesday, but even if they somehow get back on track, it may still be a long time before we know the final outcome, since the inclusion of absentee ballots—which could prove decisive—won’t even begin until July 6.
Don’t count on the Board of Elections to show much urgency in addressing this debacle, though: Earlier on Tuesday, before the ranked-choice disaster unfolded, board president Fred Umane said the board might not hold its regularly scheduled meeting next week because so many members are on vacation.

A Donald Trump supporter who teamed up with members of the Oath Keepers to storm the U.S. Capitol building has testified before a grand jury and reached a plea deal with federal prosecutors in which he admits he entered into a conspiracy to obstruct the Jan. 6 certification of Joe Biden’s Electoral College win.
Mark Grods, according to a criminal information filed ahead of his plea agreement hearing on Wednesday afternoon, will admit he was part of a military “stack” formation and entered the Capitol building carrying a large stick on Jan. 6. Grods will admit that he brought firearms to Washington, D.C., and “eventually provided them to another individual to store in a Virginia hotel.” (

It’s usual for news outlets to summarize the news-to-date in a continuing story before they get to what’s current, mainly for people who haven’t seen the stories before the current one.
In the past, I have attempted to follow the news from outlets that don’t do that — if you happen to come to a story late, it’s almost impossible to catch up on what’s happening.

Totally aside from the moral/legal aspects, if you don’t think it was a mistake to bring over slaves, build an entire economic and social system based on exploiting their labor, fight a Civil War over the spread of slavery, continue to deny them voting rights, privileges and education even after freeing them, then you have a very distorted sense of history.

Everything I’ve seen so far just describes it as a developing story; no details yet.
“…The court said that District Attorney Kevin Steele, who made the decision to arrest Cosby, was obligated to stand by his predecessor’s promise not to charge Cosby when he later gave potentially incriminating testimony in Constand’s civil suit. There was no evidence that promise was ever put in writing.
Justice David Wecht, writing for a split court, said Cosby had relied on the former prosecutor’s decision not to charge him when he later gave potentially incriminating testimony in the Constand’s civil suit.
They said that overturning the conviction, and barring any further prosecution, “is the only remedy that comports with society’s reasonable expectations of its elected prosecutors and our criminal justice system.”

re: #429 Belafon
The Republicans are a failed political party that has descended into fascism and has yet to be crushed for attempting a coup. Everyone involved with the party today is an asshole.

re: #430 Eclectic Cyborg
My god. Someone needs to get fucking fired over this.
It sounds like Castor was.
But, I’m going to have to agree with part of the ruling, though it might be hard to charge him in any other way after now. The only good thing is Cosby’s reputation is ruined and he is going to have to disappear.
re: #426 Eclectic Cyborg
Wait. What the fuck?
So Cosby is going to walk away a free man now?
wait for ‘exonerated!!!’
re: #417 Jay C
What 19th-Century racists (i.e. most white people) would have recognized as the “Santo Domingo” syndrome (after the 1791 slave rebellion in what is now Haiti); where the only alternative to race-based chattel slavery and denial of human rights is a violent, bloody slaughter of innocents.
Updated, of course, for “welfare checks” and better guns, but still the same-old- same-old….
Yeah, but half the trick is that the slavers get to set the terms on “innocents” and you’re a bad person if you point out that…eeehhhh…
…maybe don’t build a society in which your fragile loved ones are constantly attended by people held in bondage because it’s cheap labor is worth the risk. There is a very obvious way that this goes bad, especially when you also train your fragile loved ones to disregard the humanity of those people you own.
It’s the same trick that powers settler-colonialism: push boundaries—just keep throwing civilians settlers at Kikuyu land, or Nez Perce land, etc— while playing “reasonable” but the violence is readied in reserve for the moment that the natives kill civilians that they don’t “read” as civilians because they’re re armed people taking their shit and will not talk or listen.
Build a society in which all people simply assume key entitlements—property rights plus racism—-throw them into a conflict zone where those assumptions make them look at an obviously dangerous situation as “an opportunity” and wait for the inevitable.
Kind of similar to all the versions of “die for the big abstraction” actually.

A free, but utterly destroyed, man.
The illusion of the man that he seemed to be before this all came out has been irreparably shattered.
re: #429 Belafon
“Up to 50 troops” will do what?
The “up to 50” is the give away that this is performative bullshit, particularly because the MSM won’t following up to see how many troops were actually sent (could be 3 dudes/dudettes in a Dodge Durango). But Noem threw her red meat to the base.

Oh, he’ll have a comeback performance at Grift-A-Lago when Snowbird Donnie heads south for the winter.

He’s going to sidle right along to the right wing grifter victim persecution complex pyramid scheme. There’s plenty of horrible mens rights activist types out there (even in Congress!) that will give him his due credence for BEING RAILROADED BY MONEY GRUBBING SLUTS AND A JUSTICE SYSTEM OUT TO GET BLACK CONSERVATIVES! He’ll have a platform.

Analogous to OJ: OJ’s acquittal meant he could never be tried again; but his reputation was destroyed.
On a much less serious front: looks like CNN is trying to rehabilitate Jeffrey Toobin, who appeared to have suffered permanent damage to his reputation last year, but he’s back on the air pontificating on current events. Yes — he didn’t commit a crime or physically harm another person nor was he involved in lying or misleading the public — but you wonder why CNN was unable to find a suitable permanent replacement.

Also, O.J. did later serve a decent amount of jail time for another incident.
Back in the office for the first time today. One person on our staff isn’t vaccinated because she is waiting for more assurance it’s safe. She’s not wearing a mask. Should I encourage her to wear a mask to protect herself, or naw?

I hope she’s not involved in any kind of risk management for the company.

Nine years for armed robbery. He’s on parole for another 20 years.

Yes. AOC’s page behind the privacy bar. Someone has to do the job of debunking conservative fetish-fantasies about her, and they were the only people capable of doing it, hence the fact-check.
Her feet are rated four stars out of five. They have fifty-three photographs of her feet. According to their suggested feet, those who like her feet also like Katy Perry’s feet.

9 years for 2 murders? Not a particularly long sentence for brutally murdering 2 people — and that’s what the punishment was for; the second crime would likely have resulted in no prison time if it weren’t for the anger of society against a murderer escaping justice.
re: #448 No Malarkey!
It’s probably worth telling her about the Delta variant transmission speed.
Trump just asked if the drugs are coming from China.
The sheriff just said, “No.”

re: #422 Belafon
So, why, especially barring a retrial? (I can’t click on the link since it’s in a tweet.)
Cosby agreed to testify in a civil case after he reached an agreement with the prosecutor to not be charged criminally. The prosecutor’s successor charged Cosby criminally and used Cosby’s testimony from the civil trial against him. That’s according to a write-up I read.

Sounds like he can’t be charged in PA. Did he commit any misdeeds in other states? Should be fair game there.
re: #324 GlutenFreeJesus
Guess they forgot the HOA wanted to fix the issues but residents turned down the increase in dues to pay for it all.
Plus I bet the condo association doesn’t have real deep pockets anyways. Only winners in the lawsuits will be the lawyers.
re: #398 b_sharp
Where does the conservative notion that we can only value our country if we pretend it’s perfect come from?
Did their parents completely misunderstand child-rearing suggestions from Dr. Spock?
Falls in line with the country being blessed by God himself. And you don’t want to confuse people by promoting Jesus and the 10 Commandments while also saying that we’ve simply bullied and killed minorities whenever it was profitable for some people at the time.
Which is pretty much the story of expansion westward from the original colonies. Land claims made (or granted), demand for new land due to non-sustainable crop selection (tobacco or cotton), and this leads to a constant push on the indigenous tribes, as well as a growing demand for cheap labor (slaves or indentured servants). Rinse and repeat.
Heck, a simple look at Washington’s career shows that he is not the “marble man” our dumbed down history wants to make of him. He essentially started one of the wars between France and England and was somehow lucky enough to escape with his own life and those of his men.
