One of these ad hoc offices that was to be conducting the sham plebiscites was blown up a few days ago and in another instance, the Russian-appointed overseer of these referenda was killed.

If you think that what is currently going on in the 11th district judicial system has anything to do with the law, precedent or convention, you would be wrong. It is all about obfuscation and delaying tactics to stem the revelations until after the mid-term elections. As an example of the insane premises by Trump's team of crack (interpret that as you will) lawyers, they are arguing that any document produced by any arm of the government and Trump has seen or night have seen is his to do with as he sees fit, and no longer can be the property of the government. Even "top secret" or "above top secret" documents. The firm that Trump has retained demanded and received a 3 million advance retainer, so that tells you that they expect to lose the case(s), which in the past meant Trump refused to pay his attorneys if they lost.

It is a criminal offence in the US to lie to the court, provide false documents or lie to federal agents. In essence, if Trump's lawyers provide a list of documents that Trump says he has declassified and it turns out to be false in any meaningful way, then the lawyers are on the hook themselves. They are caught in a bind and there is no remedy. This invalidates Trump's last line of defence. ''

Bringing in bodies at random solves nothing and only adds to the frustration. Gotta be the right people, and I trust Walters and Co to do that.

Apparently the Russian army has "donated" more operational tanks to the Ukrainian army than any other country. One of those abandoned/captured tanks was a T-92, a state of the art brand new tank that has been promptly given to the US. Similarly, the Ukrainian army has found massive amounts of ammunition rockets and missiles.

The MAGA/Antiaxxer movement has become a cult wherein the participants (except for the leaders) are completely emotionally and even financially invested in their beliefs much like evangelical adherents who, at the urging of their ministers, mortgage their homes and take out personal loans to donate to their churches. It closely resembles a form of mania, not responding to logic, facts or any evidence that things are not as they believe. I had a patient who was utterly convinced that his music (which was terrible) would be loved by any and all rock bands. He sold all his possessions and moved to the US, living in his car and going from one door to another until his money ran out. Even after he returned to Canada, he persisted in his beliefs.

Dreaded Side Effect Rears Its Ugly Head in Latest COVID Variant All over the world, the rates of death and hospitalization from COVID keep dropping. But our successful mitigation of the worst outcomes of the 33-month-old pandemic belie a growing crisis. More and more people are surviving COVID and staying out of the hospital, but more and more people are also living with long-term symptoms of COVID. Fatigue. Heart problems. Stomach problems. Lung problems. Confusion. Symptoms that can last for months or even a year or more after the infection clears. As many as 21 percent of Americans who caught the SARS-CoV-2 virus this summer ended up suffering from long COVID starting four weeks after infection, according to a new study from City University of New York. That’s up from 19 percent in figures the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported in June. Compare those numbers to the recent rates of death and hospitalization from COVID in the U.S.—three percent and .3 percent, respectively. Long COVID is by far the likeliest serious outcome from any novel-coronavirus infection. And possibly getting likelier .This Could Be the Only Way to Beat COVID for Good: The CUNY study, which is not yet peer-reviewed, focused on American adults, but the results have implications for the whole world. Globally, long-term symptoms are partially replacing COVID deaths. After all, more COVID survivors means more people at risk of long-term symptoms. And long COVID is cumulative—people get sick and stay sick for a while. “Despite an increased level of protection against long COVID from vaccination, it may be that the total number of people with long COVID in the U.S. is increasing,” epidemiologist Denis Nash, the CUNY study’s lead author, told The Daily Beast. That is, every day more people catch long COVID than recover from long COVID. But understanding long COVID, to say nothing of preventing it, isn’t a priority in the global epidemiological establishment. That needs to change, Nash said. “I believe it is long past time to be focusing on long COVID in addition to preventing hospitalizations and deaths.” https://www.thedailybeast.com/scientists-warn-of-spike-in-long-covid-cases-across-the-united-states?ref=home

Watched the post-game interview with Vernon Adams who cam across as a humble personal who gave credit to the rest of the team. Nice. I hope he does well but the Stamps have lost not a step with Maier.

It has been predicted in this forum that the sloppy defence would cost us sooner or later, and it has come to pass. Coaches are supposed to burn the tapes of a game like this. I'm burning my PVR.

Embarrassment has never been a part of right-wing behavioural repertoire. Better than being in jail as a "short-eyes".

Pretty much, yes.

Oklahoma University’s 3rd string QB’s name. We could draft him but I'm concerned that he might screw us over.

That wouldn't take much.

Rose has made a few good plays this year- just not enough.

It was implied that somehow Harrison not seeing the field would have made a difference.

NOT the problem.

We not just beat we were beaten up.

And a big cork.

Neither can play all d-line spots and d-back spots at the same time.

Took a helmet in the solar plexus.

Well, maybe we have a chance, but the whole freaking team was so inept, it leaves little room for optimism.

TSN pumping a comeback scenario for all they're worth, but I think that ship has sailed.

Shivers thought CFL meant Canadian Felons' League.

Shivers being praised whereas he was a terrible GM.

Janarrion Grant is playing himself out of a job. No speed and no read.
