Helith posted:Really? Hope the mega rich don't mind sharing with all the Kiwis and all the Aussies then as Aussies get to live visa free in NZ. Plus all the Pacific Islands that have rights to live in NZ too. Why wouldn't the wealthy just do one of the things they're good at; corrupt and take over the local political machine and use their influence to end those arrangements.

I wonder if the Republicans know that we couldn’t care any less if this causes Biden to lose the Dem nomination. Investigate everyone. Throw everyone into court and prison.

I love how last week Rand got his rear end blown out completely on The View (to the point where even Ana Navarro wasn't having any of his poo poo) and he's still going on TV because he's incapable of knowing when he's defeated.evilweasel posted:https://twitter.com/kyledcheney/status/1184118504666079232 I'm going to guess that, in addition to the few employees left at State not happy about what's been going on, the fact that even one subpoena was obeyed makes it easy for the rest to be obeyed because of precedence?

A lot of evidence has come out about that fraud case being a crock of poo poo, and that they genuinely thought their kid was in a balloon. The police took advantage of a japanese american mother who could barely speak english and without a translator, to get a false confession. All because the sheriff was facing corruption charges and needed to look good for re-election  I know you are just referencing it, but that case is a whole lot more hosed up than people know

Yes, but not in the legal sense of precedence. No one wants to be the one left holding the bag, so once one person talks, it is in everyone else's best interest to appear and point fingers.

VitalSigns posted:wtf Ana Navarro is on that show too? Hilariously(?) enough she was filling in for Meghan McCain quote:Meghan McCain skipped out on Sen. Rand Paul’s (R-KY) appearance on The View Friday morning—citing “personal reasons”—despite accusing the GOP senator of having Kurdish “blood on his hands” in Syria the day before. Meghan McCain, noted coward quote:Paul was ostensibly on the show to promote his new book, simply titled The Case Against Socialism, but they began the interview with his support for President Donald Trump’s controversial decision to let Turkey wipe out America’s Kurdish allies in Syria. Like, how do you go on The View which is basically daytime fluff piece TV and get completely owned by everybody there including a Republican strategist whose only real saving grace is that she hates Trump so much she voted against him in 2016?

I can't find any word on any repercussion or movement since Pompeo defied the subpoena for state department docs; does anyone know what's going on with that? Also, don't his employees jumping ship and also complying go against Pompeo's story about his team being 'harassed'?
