Politics Thread

I wonder if it matters that Rhodes was at the Capitol that day...and was convicted of seditious conspiracy?
Or does it matter at which hotel he spent the night?,
Which one might be more germane to the charge and conviction?

The sentence construction is correct; "and was not present" refers to the subject of the sentence...Tarrio.
And like Rhodes, Tarrio never entered the Capitol (which would have been hard to do since he was not present in DC that day).

Great deflection on the point I originally made, many posts ago. Stewart Rhodes was convicted of seditious conspiracy, and was not a tourist.

Despite the massive deflection, I once again answer (perhaps you missed my earlier answers) that I live in the South because I was born and raised here, and I love the locale. Perhaps only those so fortunate understand the connection.

Many, many of my friends (as you might suspect) are Republicans. Some of them are quite rational and can discuss issues without personally attacking others. And of course, some of them can't. I suspect that's true around our country. I do not "abhor" any of them. Many are misguided by consuming only radical right information, by many are also more broadminded and well-informed.

Which reminds me...why do you live in

I would think you'd want to move to South Carolina.
(Apparently that's a "legitimate" question to be asked, which should not gather any deflection.)
I'll help you pack if you're coming down. Weather's great, and you can play golf almost year round.

Sounds like Hogan is going to run in '24. He'd be absolutely outstanding for the country as he is a moderate and extremely pragmatic in his decision making. Unfortunate that he doesn't have a chance in hell of winning

He might win Maryland in the primary. Maybe.

Doesn’t sound extreme enough for either base to get behind. You are correct. No chance.

I think he could cause some havoc as an independent.

Why would I want to move? I get everything for free up here in Calahooga County? (Joke)
But thank Gawd it is mitigated by a sensible Republican controlled state.
I can just relocate and shop about 6 miles west where the taxes & gas prices are much lower and becomes a more sensible area. The outmigration to other counties around here is at pandemic proportions.

You can have your opinion, but that sentence says what it says. It does not say Rhodes was in DC. And it says what I have said and belies your incorrect take, no matter how you try to spin it. Stop disrespecting a reporter. He clearly included both Tarrio and Rhodes in his statement.
I’d love to see the outcome of that case away from the DC bubble. Say in South Carolina. That would be interesting.

How ironic, and laughable. This is the fucking left making our lives better:


The Swiss Confederation usually imports electricity from France and Germany to keep the lights on over the winter, but this year neither country has any power to spare. Many French nuclear power plants are down after years of postponed maintenance, while in Germany we suffer from a superfluity of idle wind turbines and a (self-imposed) shortage of natural gas.

The Federal Council of Switzerland has therefore published draft legislation, which outlines four tiers of escalating measures to conserve electricity and avert potential blackouts. The first prescribes a lot of temperature restrictions for things like refrigerators and washing machines. The second includes more unusual rules, such as the demand that heating in clubs and discotheques “be set to the lowest level or switched off completely,” and that “streaming services … limit resolution of their content to standard definition.” The third foresees cutting business hours, banning the use of Blue Ray players and gaming computers, and also limiting the use of electric cars, which should be driven only when absolutely necessary. A fourth and final tier mandates closure of ski facilities, casinos, cinemas, theatre and the opera.

What's worse, the idiots running western countries, or the idiots who voted for these idiots?

11th Circuit Court of Appeals not impressed with lower court's involvement with the Mar-a-Lago investigation.

GOP Judiciary Committee wisely decides to delete twitter that had supported Kanye West along with Musk and Trump.

Total embarassment for Judge Cannon as she sees her career piled up on the trump garbage dump with so many others.
