If they had evidence then don't you think they would have included that in their filing. If they had evidence don't you think they would be screaming it from the roof tops and Trump would be yelling about it non stop 24/7.

They got jack poo poo.

From my understanding their excuse was they can't produce it yet due to some legal reason... I don't think that's ever stopped Trump and his cohorts before.

I got into an argument with a (literally) 400 pound guy at work who unironically claimed he could take Holly Holm in an octagon, he'd just grab her. I said even if she just didn't decide to jaw him and immediately end it, he'd never lay a finger on her and gas. He got super offended about it, like I was an idiot for not seeing that he, a morbidly obese man, couldn't beat up a world class trained fighter that was a silly woman.

Some guys are super weird about admitting a woman is better than them at anything.

Anyway RIP to Ryan Dunn :(

It’s not.

The actual number? About 5%, or 1/10 as much.

I don't know if you guys have been following the controversy around the ouster of Claudine Gay, from her position as President of Harvard following a lot of student protesting against Israel (aka supporting Palenstinians)

Well basically after she refused to disavow the protests, Bill Ackman, a hedgefund billionaire, basically accused her of plagiarizing in order to find another way to oust her. He basically got a lot of right wing chuds to amplify this until she finally resigned.

However, his wife, neri oxman, is an MIT Professor... and after Gay's ouster from Harvard, Business Insider did some research into her and found out she had copied Wikipedia word for word and this dude went off.

First he tried to silence Business Insider reporters by talking to the Private Hedgefund in charge of the company, who he is very buddy-buddy with. But of course that didn't go well.

I honestly don't want to go too much into it, but he's been posting huge long diatribes on twitter defending his wife and basically saying her copying off wikipedia, especially back 10+ years ago, isn't really plagiarism.
If you want to know more, Molly White, (of Wikipedia and Web3IsGoingGreat fame), did a couple videos about it starting here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_jM6aoTDK0

ANYWAYS the point of my post though is to post this tweet. "She" in this case is Bill Ackman's wife, and the person writing is Bill Ackman

Why would she resign over baseless plagiarism accusations?

I don't know the specifics but I believe she did plagiarize.. something. But there probably wasn't going to be any pressure to remove her over it other than the fact that she refused to do anything about the protest on campus. I don't really care either way about it. I mean yeah I guess remove her? But no one cared until this guy decided to basically use it to get her fired. But I think the funny thing about it was this dude's hypocrisy over being outraged by her plagiarism but not by his own wife's.

Edit: oh yeah and all the stuff that led to him admitting that she gave epstein an orb

taiwan is having their presidential election tomorrow (1/13) (so technically right now since its 7am over there.)

the current president is termed out and her party (DPP) is leading the polls by 3-5 points. so hopefully their party's nominee does win. i am hoping they do and not the KMT (and the less worse alternative, TPP). imagine the incompetency of the GOP but split into two parties.. that's the opposition and yet they are within a MOE of winning.

taiwan law prevents polling 10 days before the election but nothing much has changed so here's hoping everything goes as planned.

okay that is all.

Like I said last night, it's absolutely hilarious these idiots are only finding out now that the people they want to vote for them are just as racist as everyone says they are.

There will never be a person of colour as the GQP nominee for president, and to think otherwise is absolutely laughable.
