@jeffowski More men should wear dresses. They’re very comfortable.

@tomiahonen I think Nikki is more concerned that Biden will win and then have to step down. I doubt she’s thinking that far ahead.

@mjrider Also remember Robbert, in New York State if you commit a million dollars of tax fraud you go to prison, it is that simple. Trump committed $180 million dollars of tax fraud in NY. He goes to prison on this crime alone for another 20 years at least. This is ON TOP of his PERSONAL tax fraud (similar to Weisselberg who went to prison) which was worth 17 years in NY state prison

What will Judge Engoron do with Trump $48M ghost loan & tax dodge on Wednesday?

Could charge $0 & hand it to IRS
Could charge the $18M in tax fraud
Could charge the $48M in fraud loan
Could charge 10 yrs x $18M tax fraux = $180M
Could add interest $180M + $120M = $300M

@KatM@mastodon.social Exactly why I retired when the pandemic hit.

@Kimota94 Abbott is delusional, and Trump would only choose someone as evil as himself. It would never occur to Trump that he couldn’t push around Abbott (no pun intended).

Every time I see “UNRWA” I think “United Nations Right Wing Association,” and I think I’ve been right all along.

Two Western officials confirmed on the condition of anonymity that they had been briefed on the contents of the dossier in recent days, but said they had not been able to verify the details. Although the United States has yet to corroborate the Israeli claims itself, American officials say they found them credible enough to warrant suspending aid.

Hamas was in [edit] UNRWA 2 years before they were elected into government in 2006.

"The prospect of a military standoff between 25 GOP states and the United States is not one the administration likely relishes. On the other hand, doing nothing emboldens Texas to continue enacting its twin goals of harming migrants and shifting the balance of power between the states and the federal government."

"A proposal dubbed the 'Help Not Harm' bill, H. 4624, would prohibit anyone under age 18 from receiving gender reassignment surgery in South Carolina. Any form of puberty-blocking drug or procedure also would be illegal for minors under the proposal. The bill is sponsored by all Republicans.

'“I just think that you were born a male or you were born a female, and that’s the only two genders there are,' Hiott said. 'What you were born as, that’s what God intended you to be, and I don’t believe it should be anybody’s right to change that.'

While Hiott and two other sponsors of the bill, Davis and McCravy, couldn’t say exactly where they had heard of gender reassignment procedures being performed, either way, they said they are pushing the bill as a precaution to ensure it wouldn’t happen in South Carolina."

THIS is what passes for serious legislation in #southcarolina!

A slew of anti-trans bills were just filed in SC. Some target an issue that isn’t happening

It is an absolute clusterfuck of capitalism when the narratives being put forth are both "send your kids to school sick" (because women need to get back to the office) and "women need their reproductive rights removed because they aren't producing enough workers"

Women are a goddamn Atlas, holding the entire world on our shoulders and the rest of you pissants keep telling us how to do it properly.

Gotta share. My daughter sent me a recipe this evening, which I immediately prepared, and then consumed. Two-ingredient brownies. Yes, seriously! Melt an 11 oz pkg of semi-sweet chocolate chips. While they’re melting, beat 6 eggs. When the chocolate has melted, mix the two ingredients together. Bake for 30-35 minutes at 350. That’s it!
