All purpose news and politics thread part VI: This Is Not The Time For Posing

[MiddleMan]

Seeing that Biden is polling with women 25% better than Trump.

What's telling about that figure? Hillary Clinton only polled 14% better than Trump with women. And still won the popular vote by 3 million votes.

November is really starting to look like a bloodbath.

I know social media and anecdotal accounts are sketchy at best, but I just saw a lot of basically white women saying "I just dont like her" and saw that as reason enough to not vote for her

The SCOTUS is busy today

Supreme Court declines to hear legal battle over California sanctuary law

Stop me if I'm wrong, but wasn't SCOTUS supposed to address the hullabloo over Trump and the crapstorm about his taxes?

FDA pulls emergency use authorization of hydroxy chloro quine for COVID-19



note: The CBR forum really doesn't like a certain word, so I had to adjust it.

Has he been asked yet by reporters if he is still taking this **** preventatively? I mean after these reports its coming. But, I doubt he will say yeah I stopped we were wrong, or that it was a lie and he never took it in the first place.

Here's Matt Gaetz being a complete idiot again. Here he is thinking he is dunking on Ron Perlman.

Yeah, it's called acting. Does Gaetz think Sir Anthony Hopkins is a Nazi because he played Hitler once?

Well, that and the fact that Gaetz has clearly never seen Sons of Anarchy. If he had, he'd know that Ron Pearlman's character, Clay, absolutely hated Nazis, killing as many as he could.

Boy, that arc seems more relevant today now than it did then...

I also recall Clinton being in Court, with no media coverage.

Was that when George Clinton was accused of being an Atomic Dog?

I used to have a co-worker who said exactly that. She said she just didn't like her, and so she voted... for Jill Stein.

And every time Trump did something stupid, I'd look at her and say "You know this is your fault, right?"

[Malvolio]

The context of this photo is all wrong, like even the "open for business" in front of Trump doing this makes it look like he PAID to cop a feel on Vilarino, who could be who's "open for business".

The optics are so, so f***ed up. And yet...

It's the best botched campaign photo I've seen since the "R-O-M-N-E-Y" letter sign kids got mixed up so it read, "R-MONEY".

R-MONEY. Isn't that Mitt Romney's rap name?

Supreme Court says gay, transgender workers are protected by federal law forbidding discrimination on the basis of sex



Some good news for a change.

Wondering if there will be anti-Gorsuch tweets by Trump now.

Good news indeed.

I think this is just the opening salvo of Court Cases this week. More are coming up in the next few days.

If not, it should be.

The series I watched mentions that the messenger from France often didn't even have time to arrive before a new one was dispatched with an entirely different message.

Yup, there was so much switching that the right hand didn't know what the left was doing, and, apparently this continued into Napoleon's regime.

I know social media and anecdotal accounts are sketchy at best, but I just saw a lot of basically white women saying "I just dont like her" and saw that as reason enough to not vote for her

What was it some one said, 2 decades or more of bashing her, of course people will say that. Thankfully Warren, AOC, Duckworth and Harris, for example have enough people out there to keep this from happening to them. But it shows how women are treated differently when it comes to politics vs their male counterparts.


Re: the courts. Didn't Mitch say that he wants to stack it.

Did your co-worker ever explain why she didn't like Hillary, or was the reason 'just because'?

If I waited for a politician that I liked, I wouldn’t vote very often nowadays.

To me there’s always a difference between them, they might all be wassocks, but one of them will be less of a wassock than the others.

Good news indeed.

All the SCOTUS decisions are 6-3 with the same 6 in lock-step.

Are we seeing a push internally to remove the Trump Judges from the bench?
