not that would be radioactive enough to do the, uh, job, no.
(you can buy some depleted uraninum in small cubes and such for people trying to collect a periodic table of the elements, etc. Or you can just buy the ore on amazon…)
by her standards of passing off a counterfeit $20*, we should have Trump drawn, quartered and hung.
(*he may not have been aware. around $70 million bills in circulation are counterfeit. 1 in 10k. Or he may have been given the phony bill from somebody else. We don’t know because the investigation stopped just as soon as they murdered him.)
“The issue, now before Cannon in the Southern District of Florida federal court, is likely to remain in the political debate at least until Cannon holds a hearing on the legal power of the special counsel to prosecute a defendant, on June 21.”
Well, I’m not a democrat, but I’m pretty fucking pissed that it took Marrick nearly 3 years to appoint Jack Smith as special counsel. (He was appointed nov ‘22), and that it took them over 2 and a half years to get a warrant to recover extremely sensitive documents- and they’re still missing some.
it’s almost like the people funding these polls want to convince people that lots of others are voting for Trump too, so it’s okay to vote for a insurrectionist, rapist, and convicted felon.
Half the government are scared of looking partisan and the other half are equally guilty.
Presumption of innocence isn’t a statement of fact- it is a presumption meant to inform proceedings at (and before,) trial so as to protect civil liberties; and while in that context is important, the reality that Trump and his supporters/puppet masters have incited insurrection is incontrovertible. We watched it happen live
This bill? 42 democrats apparently voted to protect a foreign genocidal maniac.
how much you wanna bet they also have their names appear on this list
(edit: yeah. I just checked they all do. it’s possible every congress person does, but, uhm, after a cursory search the average is around 100k in contributions from pro-israeli sources. I’m not even going to be bothering to check the republicans that voted yea.)
They’ll silently watch the fire as they think in their tiny chimp brains that Nazis are true Americans and everyone else is an illegal alien who needs to be gassed.
all while goosestepping to the audio book of My Thoughts By Trump, (shadow written by somebody else because he only writes with sharpies and crayons)
I wouldn’t be shocked at all if Trump actually published a book suposedly authored by him, but was really just plagerized version of Mein Kampf. (And while, yes, it’s ‘my struggle’, i felt ‘my thoughts’ would be more ironic.)
I kinda vote we air drop him somewhere in siberia.
Him and his cronies. didn’t they even build them a nice little village?
(and this is why I shouldn’t be in power. Follow the rule of law. let the legal system do it’s job. I believe treason is a capital crime… and even the most ardent anti-death-penalty person could make exceptions for the worst humanity has to offer.)
“People in our caucus… to me, they’re not really taking this as serious as we should,” Tuberville said. “American people need to wake up. This is a war; this is a war on our Constitutional rights, our constitutional republic. This is not as much about Donald Trump as it is about the people in this country.”...
“Here is what is becoming clearer and clearer every day. The threat that Trump poses would be greater in a second term than it was in his first term. This isn’t the same Trump who got elected in 2016. He’s worse,” Biden said, according to prepared remarks…...
It’s a bit ironic. If the Olympics weren’t corrupt, the Russians would have been kicked out wholesale instead of being allowed to compete as independent athletes or whatever.
