Wall street Shunning Trump...

Posted By Rod Kaufman

"Campaign donations to Biden are five times larger"
"professionals on Wall Street are shunning Trump and funneling staggering amounts of money to his opponent."

Off topic, does anyone else have trouble with certain posts that won’t format correctly. I’ve tried twice to quote a Davis post and the software won’t let me. I can quote the post before it or after it no problem. His posts also extend past where it it is supposed to be formatted and his text will appear behind the ads to the right of the page. Anyone else experience this? I thought maybe it’s my IPad but it does it with my MacBook too.
I wouldn't want to try to quote Richard's post, twice and I have enough of a hard time with myself for having to do it once. But, no, I haven't had any technical glitches, either with pop-ups from CNN links or with quotes from Richard.

But what about the dead guy? I know they only shot him ten times and burned his body afterwards but doesn't Kim's apology count for something?

Instead of feeding the guy to his Piranha's in his Piranha pool, like he did with one of his ex-generals, he had him shot and evidently felt remorse afterwards:

The guy who was filled up with lead reportedly wanted to defect. Why the hell did he want to do that? Did he want to get wormy?:

I remember studying these critters in pathology. They used to be quite uncommon until they found a home in north korea...

It's AMY!

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Another one of her "opinions"
In Kanter v. Barr, 919 F.3d 437 (7th Cir. 2019), Barrett dissented when the court upheld a law prohibiting convicted nonviolent felons from possessing firearms. The plaintiffs had been convicted of mail fraud. The majority upheld the felony dispossession statutes as "substantially related to an important government interest in preventing gun violence." In her dissent, Barrett argued that while the government has a legitimate interest in denying gun possession to felons convicted of violent crimes, there is no evidence that denying guns to nonviolent felons promotes this interest, and that the law violates the Second Amendment.[49][50]

Just a few questions for Amy, and maybe I'm just spitballing here, but:
1. Do you believe in evolution?
2. Do you believe in vaccinating your kids?
3. Do you believe in arming convicted felons?
4. Have you ever heard of overpopulation?
5. Are you an anti-masker?
6. Did you get tested before meeting Trump? How many times?
7. Ever gone without healthcare insurance?
8. Any pre-existing conditions you would like to notify your carrier of?
9. How do you plan to insure your kids when they turn 18?
10. Any plans to have Clarence's wife interview you on your favorite conservative blog?

That's "sexist"? and that's the topic of discussion here. Sexism obviously isn't what Feinstein is talking about here...
