    Thought I beat the clock and planted my soybeans on the last "day" advised. Fast forward 3 weeks without a drop of rain and....not a single plant grown. At least I don't have to worry about them being too small for roundup

    Amen!!
    Millions of demacrats watch MSNBC/ CNN every day and probably ( spanking the monkey" just waiting for this to come about.

    This will slowly fizzle over time.
    The next " scandel" will sweep it under the mat.

    See a house I want to buy that’s been on the market a little while and I kept procrastinating, finally decide to buy it so I get approved for the loan today and the owner changes his mind and takes it off the market today. Bummer

    There is -0- chance any of these subjects face these charges. Publicity stunt designed to harm the president.

    All of them are Russian government operatives living and working in Russia. This circus was only more treason by the upper-level of the DOJ- not only do they unseal meaningless indictments of Russian government officials <who were doing their JOBS> knowing that "justice" will never be served; they did it at such a time that the only reason to do so was intentionally poison the well before the summit...and in doing so set an international legal precedence thereby exposing US intelligence operatives to the same type of legal jeopardy/actions.

    They might as well indict the whole Iranian Republican Guard while they're at it for blowing up our boys and girls in Iraq. Soldiers kill. Spies spy. It's one thing if they were here doing it; but it's a farce to think that they are subject to our legal system for acts committed whose origin was in a sovereign nation.

    Bibi Netanyahu is probably preparing to indict Brennan, Rice, and BHO as I type this...

    That’s terrible, the context was obviously not racist. This country needs to stop freaking out over BS like this. Especially when that word is used all the time by our pop stars and famous rappers in song lyrics all the time.

    To think that the use of word, no matter the context could cost you your job, even if your the ceo of Papa Johns, is terrifying.

    I am an idiot I have become a soft old fool. Current barn cats we have a female she has kittens and a tom cat comes and kills her babies, sad really but we don't need more kittens and I don't have time to guard kittens. Well last night I was in the barn cleaning stalls when I hear kitten meows mother cat did not have her kittens in the loft she had them right next to the horse stall in a little pet carrier. I picked up the pet carrier and brought the barn cat into the house with her kittens. Now I have to go to town can get a litter box, the dogs can not leave the cat alone I should have just left the kittens in the barn but it is too late now.

    Something just dawned on me. The people who are all pissed off about children being separated from parents at the border are the same people that insist abortion is a free choice.

    I agree but I think the other higher ups there at the pizza factory were looking for a way to can this guy. Their stock has been plummeting for months. And for him to say that word no matter what context it's in, in today's society especially. He should know nothing good was going to come of it.

    Trying to relax have Saturday morning coffee and watch the news. Two of the channels that show local news in the morning are not showing the news they are showing world cup soccer and the tour de France.:mad:

    These 12 Russians can now be arrested basically anywhere else in the world besides Russia and maybe a few other countries. All their assets outside of russia will be frozen forever. Their lives are changed forever. It means any intercepted communications by them admissible against U.S. co-conspirator conspirators rather than just being hearsay. Or fake news as you guys like to call it. You have to name names to lay out a case. Can't just say these Americans talked to these Russians. You should know this stuff noodles.

    So Bernie Sanders was in town yesterday to stump for his comrade Keith Ellison. Funny how carbon footprint means nothing to the "progressives" when they feel the need to jet in to minnesota then up to Duluth for the day. I was also shaking my head at the people only in Minnesota would people flock to see a loser, I was befuddled until I realized they sell out US Bank stadium too so there is that.:poke:

    Disclaimer....Im not the smartest guy in the room.
    But if the lefties despise America and strive to "fundamentally " change it. Why don't they Ayn Rand it? They have the money and there is a multitude of $hitty little countries they could use. I personally
    A. Would leave if the Right could pull this off.
    B. Would not even miss Hollywood or the oppressed.

    if they travel anywhere, they will be doing so on official passports with diplomatic immunity. They aren't going to be arrested anywhere - not to mention that the G of R could just issue them legit passports with fake identities. IF (and it's a big if for me for too many reasons to get into) they actually did this it was at the direction of their superiors and they will be supported at home and abroad. These guys aren't Russian oligarchs- they are Russian government operatives and members of the military. I'm not saying it's impossible for them to have foreign assets but I doubt they do in any form that is forfeitable- these guys are supposedly cryptocurrency experts, right?

    Again, if you want to prosecute foreign agents for foreign acts, how about start with the Iranian Republican guard for the murder of nearly 200 American service members ? https://www.defenseone.com/news/2015/09/how-many-us-troops-were-killed-iranian-ieds-iraq/120524/

    Keep this in mind as well, if you extend American laws to foreign entities you also have to extend Constitutional rights to the same...

    Also, any recorded conversations (or associated metadata) they had with any American is already admissible under the FISA Act.

    This is a publicity stunt, and one with 2 dire consequences- 1) it taints the well before the Putin/POTUS meeting (I believe intentionally) and 2) it opens up US operatives to reciprocal retribution from foreign "friends" and foes alike - remember the Obama admin eavesdropping scandal where the NSA was listening to foreign heads of state including Merkel and several others? I'm sure that violated German laws. What is to stop Germany from prosecuting the previous administration (and holdovers)?

    https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-23123964

    Governments spy, and governments use propaganda at home and abroad. It's what they do. It's not like anyone died. Speaking of; what's to stop Pakistan from charging the previous administrations with negligent homicide for every innocent killed by our dronestrikes?

    And told Trump to stop acting crazy, talking crazy, that no one was meddling with the election.

    Agreed. They won't be arrested anywhere and this is a publicity stunt timed with Strok (?) and Page's week at the republican ceremonial dog and pony show that also won't amount to jack ****.

    Our government and its agencies waste a lot of time and money giving folks these "bread and circus" events.
