Gotta know what you are doing to get the butt cheek marks right.

Hey, he showed a bunch of manilla folders with stacks of papers that were totally not blank props and lied about divesting or whatever from his private companies that were a clear conflict of interest thrpighout his presidency. That totally counts!

What a load of bullshit.

It is a new level of a news organization directly acknowledging how much word salad he spews instead of treating it as normal.

We only had one ocean when we bullied Mexico into giving up territory.

We took over multiple islands both east and west of the continental US, which are now territoties and the state of Hawaii.

So no, oceans didn't stop us when we rrached both coasts.

Honestly the best thing for people to keep in mind is that humans were really good at moving giant stones long distances at that point in time so they could come from pretty much anywhere. There is a video on Easter Island statues where they figured out a way to walk the statues down to the water's edge matching oral tradition descriptions and there is a guy who moves huge blocks multi ton around with a similar technique.

When people did it full time for generations I bet they had even better techniques!

I agree completely, just wanted to make sure it was clear that he has been convicted.

Just an excuse to avoid actually holding him accountable for anything.

Putting his ass in jail might harden his base but turn off those who were only party loyal out of tradition and might throw away their vote to a 3rd party. Hell, it might motivate more people to overcome voter suppression and vote for Dems if the system actually does something to hold him accountable. Increased turnout is more important than how hard conservatives mash the Trump button.

While I love the detail and clarity of your posts, it is getting depressing seeing just how little actual progress has been made on holding him accountable.

Keep up the good work so if anything actually happens we will have a reminder that there was something.

But if we never get him convicted of any crimes, it won’t matter very much.

Texhnicslly, if we never see him sentenced for his convictions it won't matter. He has 34 convictions.

 
 

This is something that I couldn't find an obvious setting for, but someone pointed out that the descriptions are different on different instances.

This post has a German (?) description on midwest.social, but on programming.dev it's in English.

In my settings:

  • Interface language is Browser Default.
  • Languages has Undetermined and English selected

All other descriptions on posts are in English, only youtube seems to be different.
