WoodrowSkillson posted:Mueller is doing this utterly by the book and methodically. He is definitely having person after person answer the same questions and is cross referencing all their answers to figure out who is lying, who is being misled, and who is the source of lies. He knows his report is going to be scrutinized more than nearly any other such report, and is making it as airtight as possible. He indicted those Russians so that later he can state "Individual A exchanged emails with known Russian agent B, indicted on crimes XYZ." the democrats will have congress eventually were gonna need the info as well as for history book

It felt like an All-Star game where you have to cram like 5 people in the shortstop position while also somehow winning the game. I dunno, looks more like Chris "Alexander the Great's Chief Eunuch" Barrie to me.

Goosed it. posted:I was talking to my dad about Mueller questioning Trump and my dad said not to get too excited about it because to avoid the questions Trump can basically claim that his answering Mueller's questions is a national security threat. My dad also said that Congress can call Trump on it (but I don't think anyone thinks that would happen). Claiming his campaign activity falls under national security would raise a lot more questions than it'd answer.

JeffersonClay posted:The right thing to do in this situation is to refuse to sign the IEP, go to due process, and if necessary threaten litigation. Sorry for your lovely experience with the special education system. Sure, and while that multi-year process is ongoing my child is now attending a school where the educators and leadership are actively hostile towards him and us. We also would likely have had a CPS investigation started against us as well. They counted his outside therapy sessions as unexcused absences, usually counting as a half day each and after 10 days of unexcused absences they can report you to CPS here. At least my wife has a background in education and worked over 10 years as a college lecturer. We'll probably re-evaluate things for high school.

Crackbone posted:Am I reading that right? Killing the research ban on the Dickey Amendment is a huge deal. I wonder if it will kick off a research war like we saw with some of the controlled substances. AFAIK there really isn't much research either way, but the corporations at odds with the data are always able to fake data to "prove" their point. ("Fake" here making technically correct but academically dishonest data sets that support your position and burying the ones that don't) At least publically funded research cannot be buried.

I mean it is an explosive, you can use for 1910-style mining or whatever, but definitely nothing that Home Depot would offer. All a pipe bomb is made of is a metal pipe and lids filled with gunpowder and a fuse. If he did use gunpowder then it's hardly a surprise that he bought plumbing supplies at a hardware store. Hardest part is not blowing yourself up when making it.
