    Pretty much anything Mueller subpoena's him for he can claim executive privilege.  He also doesn't necessarily have to fire Mueller to stop it.  Courts could rule against Mueller.  Let's say Mueller tells the court he needs Trump to answer these questions because he is investigating Trump for obstruction of justice.  Trump's lawyers could then demand Mueller tell them what justice Trump is obstructing.   In other words obstruction of justice means covering up or destroying evidence of a crime or of an attempted crime.  So far Mueller has not charged Trump with a crime.  If there is no crime then there is no obstruction of justice.  If Mueller can not prove he has sufficient evidence of a crime to begin with the courts can rule that he has no case for obstruction of justice and allow Trump's refusal.

    This is not true.  Stop saying it.

    Fuck letting anyone else select my produce. Or meat. Or milk. 

    This.  Also, it gives me a chance to go by the beer aisle and check to see if they have anything new I'm interested in.

    Depends a bit what you mean by High-end. All the best restaurants are pretty unassuming and casual. Many are also pretty moderately priced.  Manny's is great but it's a steakhouse. Murrays is good, but also a Steakhouse.  I enjoy both but I know when I visit a new city I want a meal I can't get everywhere else, even it is executed better.

    You can't go wrong with Spoon and Stable but here are some you should look into- some have already been mentioned:

    Meritage, The Lexington, Bachelor Farmer, Saint Dinette, Corner Table, Travail, Tilia, Ngon Bistro, Butcher and The Boar, and of course Bar La Grassa.  

    Sounds a bit like Austin, so my comparisons would probably Uchi, Barley Swine, Emmer and Rye, etc.  We'll try to go to really high-end places if they are available (went to Alinea while in Chicago last summer), but I don't expect there to be any in Minneapolis.  Steak houses are out since we try to go to more unique places and I can easily get a great steak in Texas or really any major city.

    It was Captain Marvel's logo.  She will be in the next movie and has a solo movie coming out.

    Cool.

    Inside the Soul Stone.

    It's on the internet.  Google is your friend but basically Avengers OG -- alive.  Avengers next generation -- dead.  A few discrepancies. 

    A few people caught it here.

     

    Spoiler

    What makes you think Thanos is inside the Soul Stone?  I'm fully with the theory that those who were snapped out of existence are in the soul stone, but this is the first I've seen someone say Thanos is as well.  Since he has the Reality Stone, he could really be anywhere, including Titan as he believes it would be had he been successful in convincing them to follow his plan.

    It seems I accidentally typed seems twice as well. If that's your point, it's equally stupid. 

    If we're offering suggestions, maybe you could think more next time before making a cliched and tired post thinking you are posting some sort of witty shaggy/surly meme retort. Maybe work in a your mom joke for extra originality points next time. 

    Edit: Super Surly double post.

    It seems that my comment hit pretty close to home for you to get so butt hurt.  Maybe seek counseling?

    In the end credits under special thanks, it thanked 20th century fox for the Arrested Development character.  Who was the character? 

    Don't worry about it.  They blue the reference.

    Oh shit, Atletico down to 10 men. Second yellow for the fullback.

    Damn.  That makes more sense.  I tuned in about 5 minutes ago and my first thought was Aleti looks so shitty it's like they are playing with 10 men.  Turns out they are.

    And the GOP will repeat those deliciously ridiculous arguments with no shame.  And hell they'll add in a few crazy Alan Dershowitz quotes for good measure.

    They'll find out that his wife's brother's former neighbor's aunt once donated $100 to a Democratic school board nominee and claim that he's hopelessly biased and the whole thing is a sham.*

    I'll be in Orange County today. Any recommendations for a recreational dispensary?

    We've had R vs D for a long time and it's never been like this before.  R vs D used to get plenty of shit done.  And Trump has an R by his name right now, but he's been an R, a D, Reform party, independent, whatever, because he is outside the traditional party divisions.  He's an outsider who hijacked a party infrastructure. 

    I have a hard time imagining the solution you describe.  A noble hero running Perot-style and winning the presidency?   Won't he or she have to work with all Rs and Ds in Congress and at the state level?  There no infrastructure to support an independent.   That's why we end up with a parasite like Trump living off the GOP host. 

    The Rs are what their record says they are.  And now they are the party of Trump.

    if i did a poor job describing it, my fault.

    but if you drive down spicewood springs west of mesa, you probably know of the exact merge location.

    I do.  In fact, I drive it every day.  The one time I've seen someone on the wrong side of the yellow stripe is when a person in the right lane got angry, gunned it to block them from merging, and forced them into the other lane.  Was that asshole you?
