get a load of this... Republican congressman to nominate Trump for House speaker
Response to underpants (Reply #13) Wed Oct 4, 2023, 12:48 PM to call the conference into session, and that speaker would then have to resign. I'm not sure if the rules can be changed between Congresses anyhow (this was for the 118th Congress), which are two-year terms. I don't see this happening although it would be entertaining in a train-wreck sort of way; TFG would have to show up for work regularly which isn't how he rolls.

I laughed at today's details on Trump trial
Response to Recycle_Guru (Reply #17) Wed Oct 4, 2023, 12:05 PM And has been able to get others to do his bidding, even commit crimes. So we know he uses all kinds of tactics to establish his control and intimidation. Reply to this post Back to top Alert abuse Link here Permalink
Hey, if it take only one member of the House to bring up a vote to oust the speaker?
Response to imanamerican63 (Original post) Wed Oct 4, 2023, 10:40 AM I donít think Repubs are stupid enough to allow that rule to survive much longer, especially with calls to raise it to 50% of the caucus already coming from some of them.

You know what would have been nice? If MTP had booked Biden for the inaugural show.
Response to librechik (Original post) Mon Sep 18, 2023, 12:51 PM We have no choice. We have time to adjust because the 2024 election is not now. Putting Trump front and center will cause him scrutiny. Not sure how flattering that will be among the general public other than MAGA. Reply to this post Back to top Alert abuse Link here Permalink

CNN hosting a Trump town hall
Response to tinrobot (Reply #4) Mon May 1, 2023, 03:46 PM 7. Kaitlin Collins is the moderator Make of that what you will. Also, is TFG the only participant? CNN has already hosted a similar free ad under the guise of "town hall" for Glen Younkin. It was hosted by Jake Tapper and to say that it was not challenging for him is an understatement.

On MSNBC now Trump sues Cohen
Wed Apr 12, 2023, 02:43 PM Trump has launched a lawsuit against Michael Cohen for breach of contract and breaching client/attorney privilege. What an idiot, he is still lashing out, thinking it will help him. No client/attorney privilege in the advancement of a crime.
Wisconsin's Supreme Court Race Is the Next Abortion-Rights Test
Fri Mar 31, 2023, 03:18 PM The overturning of Roe v. Wade unleashed chaos across the legal landscape around abortion last year and sowed particular confusion in the state of Wisconsin. An abortion ban dating all the way back to 1849 immediately took effect in June, outlawing the procedure in virtually all instances except where it is required to save the life of the pregnant person.
The new Perry Mason
Response to Faux pas (Original post) Sat Mar 18, 2023, 12:22 PM 7. I'll have to circle back to it. Started episode 1 with my wife (an attorney) and it wasn't her thing, so I kind of lost track of it given all the other things on my list. I did like the grittiness of it.

Pic Of The Moment: DeSantis' Plot To Whitewash American History
Response to EarlG (Original post) Fri Mar 17, 2023, 11:44 AM 1. So when a child asks the natural questions, "why?" or "what groups of people?"... they're making it so that a teacher can be arrested for replying honestly, since the historical reality will make some students feel troubled. I certainly felt troubled by many aspects of the history of the struggle for equal rights for all Americans, and I think those feelings helped me to become an empathetic, loving person.
Pope John Paul II covered up child abuse as cardinal in Poland, says report
Pope John Paul II covered up child abuse as cardinal in Poland, says report Issued on: 06/03/2023 - 01:49 The late Polish pope John Paul II knew about child abuse in Poland's Catholic church years before becoming pontiff and helped cover it up, private broadcaster TVN reported Sunday. Michal Gutowski, the investigator behind the broadcast, said that Karol Wojtyla, as he then was, knew of cases of paedophile priests within the church while still a cardinal in Krakow.
University at Buffalo recommends ways for teachers to catch ChatGPT cheating - all time-consuming
Response to Cuthbert Allgood (Reply #10) Fri Mar 3, 2023, 10:52 AM 17. And we teachers are partially to blame. My son had a typical busywork assignmet That required writing just basic, basic bs (think copy paste/ he's 12). As a writing professor, I showed him how to use chatGPT to generate text and then make it his own and fact check. ChatGPT will also generate a list of sources it used for you as well. For the rulesy folks on DU, it was 1AM already with a 6AM wakeup call.
It's beginning to look a lot like FITZMAS (again)
Response to gab13by13 (Reply #10) Thu Feb 16, 2023, 01:13 PM 13. Thank you for your explanation. I'm wondering why the OP didn't explain what it is. As another poster downthread explained, the OP wasn't even around here at that time. IMHO, it is an outdated and irrelevant term that does not apply in today's environment.

What's your favorite single issue of a comic?
Wed Feb 15, 2023, 03:14 PM Doesn't have to be a stand alone, but not looking for best arch, or best run, or anything. Just what single issue sticks with you. Mine would be Watchman #4: Watchmaker. Blew me away the first time I read it, and in subsequent reads still has a huge impact. A very close second would be Fraction's Hawkeye #11. Pizza Dog is such a good character and what Fraction did without words was incredible.

On the gas stoves issue
Response to Cuthbert Allgood (Reply #4) Fri Jan 13, 2023, 10:56 AM 10. Until last summer, I would have agreed 100 percent with you I have had gas stoves since I got my first appartment in 1972. I also hated using the electric stove tops available to us in many timeshares. However, last summer, the unit we were in in Lanzarote was recently unpdated and had an induction hub. After figuring out how to use it, it was wonderful.
On the planted documents theory
Response to Aviation Pro (Original post) Thu Jan 12, 2023, 11:47 AM 3. yes, but it's the Secret Service doing the monitoring... and elements in the SS are clearly part of the Trump cult (Tony Ornato as an example) so this could still be an inside job.

For people coming down on Paul Whelan's supporters for saying the adminstration failed him
Response to ripcord (Original post) Thu Dec 8, 2022, 11:40 AM 7. I think an important lesson from all of this - When you go to another country follow the rules. It was dumb what Brittainy did and I hope she learned a lesson. We released a very bad person to get her back. The Whelan story is very unusual - he was "supposedly" caught with a flash drive containing Russian border guard names and locations. He also carried passports from multiple countries which is not illegal but unusual??
Lindsey Graham: "It's just a matter of time until somebody comes across that southern border & kills
Response to LonePirate (Reply #1) Tue Dec 6, 2022, 01:01 PM 39. The skin color is basically the difference and what is important to right wingers. The same reason they decry "urban" violence but tend to isolate the young White mass murderers as "misunderstood, poor young men." People coming across the Southern border are "other" and therefore scary to Conservatives. They are to be hated, while White Supremacists are to be "understood" and worthy of redemption.
OMG! The media actually did its job!!!!!!!! Finally calling fake christians out
Response to BlueSky3 (Reply #63) Mon Jul 25, 2022, 01:13 PM 65. Thank you for the link. I hear you. It's been through countless official translations from the Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek, to Latin to English. Not to mention the thousands of other modern language translations since the printing press.

shooter bullied over poverty, appearance, clothing, called gay slurs, was aggressive towards women
Response to Demovictory9 (Original post) Wed May 25, 2022, 07:04 AM 8. People Control, Not Gun Control This is my generic response to gun threads where people are shot and killed by the dumb or criminal possession of guns. For the record, I grew up in the South and on military bases. I was taught about firearms as a child, and I grew up hunting, was a member of the NRA, and I still own guns.

Sen. Feinstein was as attentive and engaged in the Jackson hearing as anyone there
Thu Apr 14, 2022, 10:43 AM bigtree (80,826 posts) ...despite the anonymous charges leveled by 'staffers' in this recent article that she's in some sort of rapid mental decline. It's not evident at all in the recent hearing, albeit, Sen. Feinstein has seen better days (haven't we all). See for yourself... Sen.

As I watched the attack on our capital, I saw things most Americans did not.
Thu Feb 3, 2022, 02:10 PM fightforfreedom (274 posts) I saw a complete failure of our education system. I saw a complete failure of generations of parental education. What we saw that day was thousands of Americans of most age groups, completely mindless. They had history wrong, facts wrong, reality wrong, they could not tell the difference between right and wrong, a lie or a truth. They could not tell they were committing crimes or not. What they did that day most children would have known better.

AmazonSmile reportedly donated more than $40,000 to leading sources of vaccine misinformation in 2020, according to separate analyses by Popular Information and the Washington Post.

NBC's Pete Williams, gold standard in #DOJ reporting, says #Rosenstein en route to White House, won't resign and will force them to fire him. As I am told, Vacancies Act only kicks in if he resigns.
