I think the issue is that you can choose to amass wealth rather than undertake charitable endeavors - but you're required to pay taxes if you take the "amass wealth" path.

Also, it is surreal to me that it has been taken as an article of faith that the Russia investigation turned up nothing. We have the Mueller report, which documents all the Russian hacking and distribution of information to Wikileaks. We have Don Jr.'s "I love it email" and we know they met...

I do want to put on my lawyer hat for a bit here and say that the "unless there's a statutory crime, you can't impeach" argument is very bizarre to me. I see Jonathan Turley and the GOP talking heads say that like it's this beyond obvious statement. It doesn't actually make any sense in the...

In your view what is "the middle?"

At this point NPC is ideologically committed. He's written too many times and been too vociferous in his support. No matter what anyone tells him, he can't back off his previous defenses of Trump.

What is the Defense to Trump's actions on the merits?

Trump claims to be worth $10 billion plus. He could be worth less than a $1 billion net, not worth as much as he says he is, but pocketing hundreds of millions over the last three years by profiting off the presidency. You really need to think a little harder about these things.

There is some real cognitive dissonance here: 1. The inspector general report proved everything that the GOP has been saying for years correct on all points. 2. The Attorney General strenuously objects to the conclusions of the inspector general report. Why does he need to object to a...

Even if that means that it doesn't happen until the 2021 Supreme Court term? It's clear the legal strategy behind refusing to testify is about running out the clock rather than prevailing on the merits.

How old is NPC...?

I posted about a connection between Parnas and John Solomon several weeks ago because they share the same sets of counsel, who also represent Dmitry Firtash. All of Solomon's "reporting" is part of a broader legal defense strategy designed to give cover to conspiracy theories by getting them...

wow this thread turned into a garbage pile of nonsense.

@Joe Bagadonuts John Solomon's work came up during Vindman's deposition. It's pretty interesting. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/11/08/you-know-his-grammar-might-have-been-right-lt-col-vindman-bashed-john-solomon-testimony/

The real reason the GOP is against making college affordable

Just now seeing this, and really you are not as well informed about these issues as you believe. Assange ended up in the Ecuadorian embassy out of practical necessity. There are specific traditions of South American law that made it the best safe haven for many years. If you watch older movies...

Read. The. Report. Wikileaks always claims to take pride in never publishing anything "false." This **** is false. The implication that the Democrats murdered a staffer in cold blood is a lie. Assange is not a journalist.

@Eenie-Meenie isn't worth responding to on this issue. As soon as someone dismisses countervailing evidence out of hand as "globalists" they're too far gone to actively deal with. The evidence of Assange and wikileak's ties to Russian intelligence is comically voluminous. They use Russian...

One better: Assange actively buried negative information about Putin and never published it, in order to continue pushing DNC content. https://foreignpolicy.com/2017/08/17/wikileaks-turned-down-leaks-on-russian-government-during-u-s-presidential-campaign/

Wikileaks was a significant partner of Russian intelligence over the last ten years and Assange actively fomented chaos globally while protecting authoritarians. It's a weird guy to rally behind.

Was at last night's game and came away with the impression that Emmanuel Mudiay will be starting in the playoffs. Can we just get Ricky back?
