  1. That they "quoted" or reproduced or however you want to say it the messages would ordinarily be a data point that their veracity is unimpeachable. You don't want some collateral fact in the indictment that is easily disproven. But, we have seen that the Trump Administration continues not to be good at law.
  2. Yeah some percentage of that 79 million was just voting on the economy. And that is pretty fucking stupid, too, but it's not evil stupid. Close, but not quite. I can't be sure, but I feel pretty strongly if Biden hadn't been saddled with COVID inflation, we wouldn't be in this situation.
  3. He didn't follow the orders of the regime swiftly enough and resisted.
  4. I mean, we all knew it was coming, but Liarpants McLiarface said he didn't know anything about it. And the rubes believed it. The persuadable rubes, anyway.
  5. Weird cunts is kinda chef's kiss.
  6. Hoax does not have the meaning that Trump ascribes to it. And substantial public harm doesn't mean hurt feelers on the part of a bunch of snowflake MAGAts. It's defined right there, and Kimmel didn't do it.
  7. Oh, he's just joshing! Can't the left take a joke?
  8. Lulz at the idea that any sort of context justifies those two sentences. Maybe if they're armed and shooting at you. That would justify it.
  9. I haven't seen him say or "preach" anything remotely Christian. He just invokes Christianity constantly.
  10. This is hilarious. Getting a pirated feed means that SOMEBODY out there is giving money to them so you can watch, which means you watching is helping them get money. You're still seeing their ads, which is where most of their money comes from. Way to go! You showed them! Well that someone ain't me and those someones are paying based on subscribers/viewership and I and anyone else like me won't count for that. Also, do recall that I'm an IP lawyer, so for me to suggest this is . . . something.
  11. His spin on the Marques Slocumb "fuck lion" saga was an all-timer as well.
  12. The disinformation was life-threatening, in most cases, not some statement of controversial opinion. And it was done in the public interest, not to salve the ego of the fuckstick president. And, oooh, the administration expressed frustration. Did they have the FCC chairman threatening to revoke their license?
  13. I don't think Rove has ever been very MAGA. That's not to say he's not a supporter of P2025/common gooder type stuff, I just don't think he likes the gross populism and the deviance from conservative political aims that Trump MAGA indulges.
  14. You sure people aren't saying that at IT? He'd do that kind of thing at BC, but when people there, and "here," and elsewhere were saying the things he took on. Usually someone like echeese.
  15. Well, yeah. This wasn't done in the public interest. He didn't say anything about Trump's interest.
  16. Scipio synthesizes the info well, he's a clear writer, and he can be funny as shit.
  17. She's very sharp.
  18. Incredibly stupid, you mean. In a fucking suit my ass. Aside from whether you believe he was some great civil orator or a racist muckraker, he's an insignificant political operative. A pimple on the ass of the USA.
  19. Well, you could avoid going through any legitimate Disney/ABC/ESPN channel. Have your cake and eat it too.
  20. You assume that it is UT law enforcement, and that is a good initial assumption. But the FBI frequently assists local law, particularly with computer forensic and other technical subject matter, where locals really may not have the horsepower. And, here, the FBI has demonstrated an interest in the case. And, of course ol Kashyap didn't himself script the texts or discords or whatever they are, but he's a stand-in for FBI.
  21. And, although a .50 cal is highly likely to do really gross damage, anomalies happen.
  22. Broadly speaking, though, a .50 cal or 12.7 is a major destruction machine. Why in the blue fuck was your friend hunting deer with a .50 unless it was extreme long range? That seems like it should be illegal.
  23. Well, from a caliber or diameter standpoint, .30-06 is not huge. Rifle bullets caliber from roughly .22 up to .50. But then there's mass, and that's often accounted for by length of the projectile. Mass surely counts toward the energy of the projectile, which is a big factor, and .30-06 is a pretty high-energy round as they go. But it's not a monster. For reference, when you're reading military fiction or non-fiction and a .50BMG machine gun, M2 or Ma Deuce, or a 12.7mm heavy machine gun Dushka is referenced, that is a huge, heavy projectile fired at very high velocity. It's not just a long-distance sniper round. When a .50 or 12.7mm machine gun comes into play against personnel, they're being mutilated and blown to shit. That round does not drill through people or "through and through," it blows them to shit as if it were an explosive round.
  24. The difference being hitting the skull. It seems the Kirk shot went through soft tissue only. Any high-energy projectile will enter flesh and generate a shock wave ahead of it, which has the potential to "blow shit up." But when the projectile and the shock wave hit something big and hard like a skull, that's when things get "weird" and shit really starts "blowing up," because the direction of the shock wave and the projectile itself get changed from basically straight ahead to up, down, left, right, and some of the energy gets transferred to the bone, which starts heading off in its own directions. Here are some shots through ballistic gel that mimic soft-tissue only.
  25. I know this is tongue in cheek, but a reminder that you don't get a trademark on just a set of words. It has to be used to sell a product or services. I make this post only because it's such a common mistake on here. If you wanted to register a trademark in that phrase for goods like tshirts, hats, koozies, etc., that might be a possibility.
