I'll stop eating beef lamb and pork the same day they start letting me eat vegetarians.
After the endless chance [sic] of lock her up! How ironic will it be if Trump is the one that actually sits behind bars? Surely it would be proof that there is a God. It would also be proof that he has a sense of humor.
Ironbite-and his hand picked SCOTUS Bro just joined the majority in not taking up a case that could've spelt dire news for abortion rights.
It doesn't concern you, Sister, that kind of absolutist view of the universe? Right and wrong determined solely by a single all-knowing, all powerful being whose judgment cannot be questioned and in whose name the most horrendous acts can be sanctioned without appeal?
Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.

A two-thirds majority, then; only four justices need to agree that the Court should take a case for them to consider it. (This is to prevent a majority on the Court from determining its docket.)

So I think I've finally cracked the code when it comes to Trump and how he views this investigation.He has no clue how a real criminal investigation is actually run or proceeds.He tweeted today about how there's no "smocking gun" found so therefore there's no collusion and other things. The thing is, "smocking guns" only exist in crime dramas and the such. There often isn't a concrete "ah-hah gotcha!" piece of evidence in real life. But in the Orange Piss Pot's head, there has to be. He doesn't get that all the testimony, all the investigations, and all the shit Mueller's been finding out about is the result of a real investigation. And it's got him scared.Ironbite-and his hand picked SCOTUS Bro just joined the majority in not taking up a case that could've spelt dire news for abortion rights.

What do you think?And today, Trump lost the shutdown fight until the end of this farce. He gave a sound bite that can and will come back to bite him in the ass."I will be proud to shut down the government over the border wall."Now, before people come here telling me that I'm wrong and it won't do anything, think about what has just happened. We had a 40 seat pick up in the House giving the Democrats a very wide berth to do whatever they want. And the biggest reason that most voters cited in voting against Republicans was Trump. And he's just handed the Democrats a great weapon to use against him.Ironbite-this man is....amazing.
