62 million abortions have occurred since Roe v Wade
WooHooooo
Well that one's easy, the federalist society and corporate interests in general.
In 2016, then-Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump pulled an unprecedented move: He assured potential voters with a list of conservatives he would nominate to the Supreme Court if elected president, Marcus says. Brett Kavanaugh’s name was nowhere to be found on this initial list of nominees nor on a second list released later on in 2016.
“This didn't seem to be a big deal if you were Brett Kavanaugh, because it wasn't very likely after all, that candidate Trump was going to become President Trump,” Marcus says.
But when Trump became a nominee, Kavanaugh's absence from the list became a concern for some. And because of support from major figures in Washington — from former President George W. Bush to Justice Kennedy — an alliance of Kavanaugh supporters got to work advocating on his behalf.
In a private meeting with Trump, Marcus says, Kennedy pushed for Kavanaugh to be included on an updated list of nominees. At the swearing in of Justice Neil Gorsuch, “Kennedy asked for some time alone with the president,” Marcus says, and then a few months later, Kavanaugh appeared on an expanded nominee list.
After 40 years of hearing Trump talk a big game but hardly back anything up with substance, you are going to suddenly believe his words? The more likely interpretation is Trump thinks by appointing him to the Supreme Court that Kavanaugh owes him, and not that he actually did anything other than listen to the Federalist Society on who to appoint. Kavanaugh seemed to have been living just fine prior to his appointment, I doubt he would have had any issues had he never been nominated.I saw a headline about 4500 tips but it didn't say much about what those tips were.
I'm not sure at this point if there's much depth to this story.
But it doesn't matter much. The three remaining liberals of the scotus are 1000 years old and refuse to retire. Because that strategy worked out great for RBG. I fully expect President mtg to appoint a 9 0 conservative Supreme Court in 2025.
The reporting seems to be focussed on the confirmation hearings, that's unlikely to lead to impeachment unless it can be proved he lied under oath..
What's interesting is the reaction from Trump after the supreme court didn't magically overturn the 2020 election...
"Donald Trump recently said, in reference to Kavanaugh, "I saved his life. He wouldn't even be in a law firm. Who would have had him? Nobody. Totally disgraced. Only I saved him.... I saved his life, and I saved his career."
It was a curious quote, which is now seen in a new light"
So what did Trump actually do to save his life?

Wow, I don't think that is free speech either. More like a conspiracy to make people afraid of the Pfizer vaccine. I hope they investigate "Fazze" and find out who is really behind all of it.
Colour me stunned and amazed.Fazze is a part of AdNow, which is a digital marketing company, registered in both Russia and the UK.
The BBC has made multiple attempts to contact AdNow by phone, email and even a letter couriered to their Moscow headquarters, but they have not responded.
Eventually we managed to contact Ewan Tolladay, one of two directors of the British arm of AdNow - who lives in Durham.
Mr Tolladay said he had very little to do with Fazze - which he said was a joint venture between his fellow director - a Russian man called Stanislav Fesenko - and another person whose identity he didn't know.
He said that he hadn't been a part of the disinformation campaign. He said he hadn't even known Fazze had taken on the contract before the story broke. He couldn't enlighten us on who the mystery client was.
He said that in light of the scandal "we are doing the responsible thing and shutting down AdNow here in the UK". He said Fazze was also being shut down.
We have tried to get Mr Fesenko to talk to us but had no success.
Both the French and German authorities have launched investigations into Fazze's approaches to influencers.
But the identity of the agency's mystery client remains unclear.
There has been speculation about the Russian connections to this scandal and the interests of the Russian state in promoting its own vaccine - Sputnik V.

Dave you can come to Chicago and talk to any cop, even non white cops and they will tell you what they think of Lori Lightfoot and the nightmare she has created here. Cops are not overworked, they are being restricted from enforcing the law, their hands are tied, this is why Chicago is a mess. And yes Kim Fox, Cook County States Attorney stated that any theft under a thousand dollars will not be prosecuted. Look this up man.
Now what economic system do I like? Well honestly I don't know. I don't like Capitalism because too many people are alienated and exploited and I don't like Socialism because it creates big government that eventually also exploits you.
I'm seeing a pattern. The Biden administration brainstorms a solution to a problem. The most extreme nutjobs on the right take it to a ridiculous conclusion. Biden gives up on the idea.
Vaccine passports. I don't know if this was something Biden seriously considered. I think someone floated in a press conference or something. Then Ron Desantis starts passing legislation banning vaccine passports.
Door to door vaccinations. Not sure if this was a serious idea or even practical. But this lead to this very measured response. Where they compared health care workers to nazis. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/rep-marjorie-taylor-greene-refers-nazi-era-brown-shirts-opposing-n1273204
It's possible that the government is overstepping their bounds with Facebook. But if it's people like the Jewish space laser lady claiming it then I'm a little skeptical.
Russia is a relatively poor country, despite being the largest by area and lots of natural resources.
As an example, Australia ranks 21st in GDP per capita with $53,831 Russia ranks 57th with $10,846 per capita. USA is 13th with $59,939.

So, if the country is on average dirt poor, how come there are so many Russian Billionaires?
They botched (deliberately or otherwise) the transition from communism to capitalism. As I understand it, shares in newly privatized industries were given to workers, but there was general chaos and massive shortages of things people needed to get by. So most regular people had to flog off their assets super cheap just to survive. A few people in privileged positions basically hovered up everything.
There was never any Communism, not in Russia China or Cuba. Communist party has nothing to do with what Communism is. No country on Earth ever had anything close resembling Communism. Please Read the works of Karl Marx before making stupid uneducated claims. Soviet Union was Socialist dictatorship never Communist and before 1917 Russian Empire was capitalist. That is it.
Slowly the truth emerges....

We all knew it already, but it's nice to have confirmation.
Feels... Weird. Like the Kremlin leaked it just to keep fanning the flames.
I would hope Biden, if asked, just says "its irrelevant now" and moves on. We don't need to bring back the Russian story again.
I've got to say, this sounds very overblown. Russia has tried to influence every election we've ever had. This one is no different.
You're all over the place. It's like watching someone have an argument with themselves.
Lots of misinformation in there, like forgetting to mention that Fusion GPS was initially hired by Republicans, and Democrats started working with them a few months later. It's all a complicated mess, but calling it purely Democrat opposition research is just false.
It's also an outright lie that the FBI investigated the collusion solely on the Steel dossier. I could go on, but there are just far too many lies and disinformation in there to list.
But it's a good idea of how the average conservative thinks, or has been led to think.
https://thehill.com/policy/technology/561818-trump-to-sue-facebook-twitter-ceos-reportQuoteFormer President Trump is reportedly planning to sue the CEOs of Twitter and Facebook after the platforms took action to suspend and ban his accounts over posts he made in response to the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol.
The former president plans to announce a class-action lawsuit on Wednesday against Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, Axios reported Wednesday, citing unnamed sources.
Trump is scheduled on Wednesday to make an announcement about “efforts to protect Americans’ First Amendment rights” at 11 a.m.
I wonder who will be joining him in the lawsuit.
President Trump’s lawsuit may determine whether or not we’re all beholden to a handful of Silicon Valley Elites, and when the stakes are this high, it’s critical that YOU are on the right side of history!
Contribute ANY AMOUNT IMMEDIATELY to show your support for President Trump and his important lawsuit.
Next week will be interesting to watch and see who gets arrested. I'm betting it will be the Weiselberg types get arrested to pressure them to flip on Trump and his crooked family.

A grand jury in Manhattan has indicted Donald J. Trump’s family business, the Trump Organization, and one of its top executives in connection with a tax investigation into fringe benefits handed out at the company, people familiar with the matter said on Wednesday.
The specific charges against the company and its chief financial officer, Allen H. Weisselberg, were not immediately clear. The indictment was expected to be unsealed Thursday afternoon after Mr. Weisselberg and lawyers for the Trump Organization appear in court.
But prosecutors in the Manhattan district attorney’s office have been examining bonuses and luxury perks that Mr. Weisselberg received — including an apartment in Manhattan, leased Mercedes-Benz cars and private school tuition for at least one of his grandchildren — and whether taxes should have been paid on those benefits.
The indictment is a major development in the investigation led by the district attorney, Cyrus R. Vance, Jr., who has been conducting a sweeping inquiry into Mr. Trump and his business dealings along with the New York State attorney general, Letitia James.
