Posting more for the title of the article, rather than the (dubious and unsourced) content. From the Guardian: Comey don’t play that: ex-FBI director defies Trump Article posted:He hopes there are tapes. That would be perfect.

The new US ambassador to Israel is firmly against a two-state solution, advocates for moving the embassy to Jerusalem (where he already owns a home), and fundraises for settlements that violate international law. http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/features/2017/03/ambassador-israel-great-advantage-netanyahu-170312063724143.html KildarX posted:The snow flake thing is infuriating to me, because it's the same people who get bent way the gently caress outta shape about happy holidays or schools not celebrating (insert holiday here) or Donald Trump getting made fun of on SNL. If you wanna call people over sensitive that's fine, but don't just turn around and immediately do the same poo poo. I have yet to see a "gently caress you liberal snowflake" facebook poster who didn't also post stuff like "If you stomp on the flag, I'll stomp on your face," or start crying about football players not standing for the national anthem.

Two Finger posted:SOURCE THAT poo poo http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/16/politics/congress-reactions-trump-michael-flynn-memo/index.html Nothing about impeachment - just a request for Comey's testimony - but also more rumblings about appointing a special prosecutor.

If there's any fairness in this world, James Comey will be remembered as the man who crushed the lifetime dreams of Clinton and Trump alike. The man who took on both sides and got the last laugh. What a legacy.

bird food bathtub posted:So when do the rats start jumping off the sinking SS Donald? It's looking like there are a lot of bricks being shat lately. There is going to be zero loyalty there. When people start flipping on him/each other it will be a blood bath that makes a Friday the 13th movie look tame. I wonder who will play Trump in the inevitable movie 10-20 years from now.

They'll be drowned out by all my Facebook "friends" shrieking that Donald Trump is the target of a witch hunt devoid all evidence, shortly before they go back to demanding a special prosecutor for Hillary Clinton.

Mister Sinewave posted:It's both funny and sad that Comey, a man who genuinely believes that civil liberties and due process are not burdens to be dealt with, but are rather both our greatest strengths and our reasons for being -- can unite people across both ends of the political spectrum in agreeing that he obviously should have no place as head of an organization like the FBI. The Kingslayer needs not care about the opinions of the little people.

These tend to be the same veterans who hated every minute they were in. We lost a couple of our guys on my trip to Afghanistan. I can't think of a better way to honor their sacrifice than by getting a day off work and eating some kickass BBQ. And maybe by not launching into another war until we have an actual exit strategy.

orange juche posted:How do you intensely study for the ASVAB of all things and only come off with a 31? I took that thing cold turkey with no studying after not having my rear end in a classroom seat for 4 years and got a 95. I assume illiteracy is a factor. I'm not joking. I had a similarly high score with no prep, and I had a Colombian guy in my basic training flight who literally could not read or write English. He could speak it well enough, and eventually guessed his way to success on the one multiple choice test we took. And even he, presumably, scored above the 31st percentile on the ASVAB. Good to know that the Army maintained its existing standards for its first female infantry soldier.
