The National Enquirer trying to blackmail Jeff Bezos, potentially the only person in the world who at this point really could not care less. [emoji38]

Seems as if the Saudis may have been the "government" involved.
At who's direction? That's still to be decided (psst, it was the Trump administration)
Please dear Lord let there be a great Democrat running against her in 2020.
This is so true, and why the frustration was so great for people who knew the importance of getting behind the nominee in 2016, while continuing to listen to hoards of people on the left still badmouthing Clinton and calling her the lesser of two evils and continuing the #neverhillary nonsense.
We now have 2 supreme court justices and a boatload of circuit judges that have been placed because Hillary was not a "true progressive". Along with all the other absolute nonsense that is happening.
The fact is that i am all behind most farther left policy ideas, but the reality is that change happens in small amounts no matter who gets into office on the Dem side. Any of them will stand behind far more progressive policies than any republican would. The reality is that a few changes will get through and many won't.
More importantly would protect and hopefully reverse the destruction of the Judicial branch.
put up Biden/Harris, Biden/Klobuchar, Booker/Harris, Harris/Booker, Harris/Klobuchar, Biden/Castro... Whatever. Just get a bulletproof pair together and get this orange shitpile out.
umm, yes. she may have *some* native ancestry but this is equivalent to if i listed myself as black on government forms because i had one black great grandmother. that doesn't make me black and it doesn't make her native. yes it may not have mattered on this particular form, but it does raise the question of if she did the same thing on forms or elsewhere, where it would present some sort of benefit to be listed as a minority. and you know for a fact that even if the dems put this past them and nominated her that she'd be eviscerated over and over for it Hy her opponent. they'd beat her into the ground with it so much that she'd never have a chance to even talk about her policies. she was my preferred candidate before this too but that millstone is now too heavy to overcome.
she absolutely deserves a very important place in the government of whomever wins (knock on wood), but she's got about as much chance at being elected now as howard schultz.
Oh I understand, it is especially galling given what he gets away with. But as we see time and time and time again, there are distinct and different standards for the orange Teflon Don and well everyone else. I am in favor of her proposed wealth tax, but the very sad reality is that it will get lost among all the Native American stuff. Which works out perfectly for those same wealthy people. Funny not funny how that works out.
I really wish she hadn't done those things, she's smart and has some good ideas. I've voted for her twice and it's very disappointing. For me it's about credibility. I don't know what was going on in her head that she seemingly thought she needed those advantages. Maybe because of her humble background? She's the only one who knows.
The African-American analogy still does not hold up in certain areas of the USA, actually. I double checked to make sure what i remembered was correct.
The One Drop Rule: How Black Americans Became …

Nov 29, 2012 · The Classifications. The classifications were Mulatto if you were half black and half white. Quadroon, if you were a quarter black and three fourth white. Octoroon, if you were one eighth black. If it could be proven that you had even "one drop" of black blood. You were considered to be black no matter how white you …
It’s official. Roberts is our swing Justice.
Wow. Just saw that.
yes i know about the one-drop rule but that has been defunct in american law since well before i was born. only racists subscribe to that theory these days.
my point was that if i had for example knowingly claimed myself as black due to only one distant ancestor on, say, a job application and that was an influencing factor in the decision making process (like if the position was given to me based on affirmative action) that i tangibly benefited from, then that's morally fraudulent (not sure about legally) and flat-out unethical.
this is not a "but her emails" thing where everyone in that administration and the previous one did the same thing but clinton was just singled out and hammered away with it because she was a mortal enemy of the right. warren's issue is a true question of ethics. if she knowingly did that on other documents to try and gain an advantage or benefit, then it's absolutely a real problem. maybe she didn't do that anywhere else and this one bar application form is the only time. really only she knows that, and unfortunately for her i don't see how there's any possible way to prove that she didn't.
I can't believe i missed this last night because i was hearing in late morning that wr were waiting for the SC to rule on it. Then i remembered i got home on time in time for the weather on the late news and rushed today while just getting the weather!
I hope this is not a case of SCJ Roberts rejecting this only to kabosh RvW later when the "right" case is sent up.
The anti-choice right was more distressed by Kavanaugh’s really narrow dissent.
However, some pro-choice writers have said that he finds a way to do this — tow a “I ain’t overturning Roe” line will still finding a way to deny abortion access.
I highly doubt that anyone's paying attention to interference.com in that regard. Maybe we shouldn't post about Trump every day either, talk about an attention whore.
