A Fox producer who has worked with Maria Bartiromo and Tucker Carlson has filed lawsuits against the company in New York and Delaware, accusing Fox lawyers of coercing her into giving misleading testimony in the Dominion legal battle.
The GOP is spending millions to increase oversight on the WH. It’s working!
CNN — Donald Trump and his family failed to report nearly $300,000-worth of gifts they received from foreign governments between 2017 and 2020, including a “larger-than-life-sized painting” of the former president that may currently reside at his Mar-a-Lago resort, according to a new report by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee and supporting documents obtained by CNN.
this is a prime example of asymmetric warfare. If Biden did this it would be plastered all over right wing media for a week, in detail, with half truths mixed in, talk about China, foreign corruption, etc. Our right wing pro-crime people on these boards would be harping on it forever.
But when trump does it...nothing. The Dems don't play hardball and the regular media isn't that interested. Asymmetric.
remember, this the kind of guy Sally thinks was just a patriotic demonstrator.
They had flags! How could they be anything but 'patriotic?' /sarcasm
SENTENCE: Geoffrey Sills, of Mechanicsville, Virginia, ordered to serve 52 months (4.3 years) in prison for robbing & beating an officer with his own baton on Jan. 6. Once out, Sills will have restrictions on his Internet use for the first of three years of supervised release.

For every Geoffrey Sills there's 1,000+ Democrats who beat people during the BLM riots with no penalty because of corrupt political DA's like Alvin Bragg who place politics over the law.
Ok I went to the OECD website, and the OECD does just what I said - offers a measurement of inequality inside a nation rather than raw living standards across borders and calls that 'poverty.' . (Unless we are looking at different pages.) Here's the OECD's definition of poverty inside a nation. Clearly it's relative to that nation alone, not other nations.
OECD: The poverty rate is the ratio of the number of people (in a given age group) whose income falls below the poverty line; taken as half the median household income of the total population.
If we are talking raw living standards compared across borders, inequality does not enter into it.
If you want a better study, there are many that say something like this - that Americans simply live on a higher economic plane than our peers.
A groundbreaking study by Just Facts has discovered that after accounting for all income, charity, and non-cash welfare benefits like subsidized housing and food stamps, the poorest 20 percent of Americans consume more goods and services than the national averages for all people in most affluent countries. This includes the majority of countries in the prestigious Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), including its European members. In other words, if the US “poor” were a nation, it would be one of the world’s richest.
See figure 2 on page 2. This is based on 2005 data, but you can calculate the more recent data by using the World Bank data on the share of income by the bottom 10%, and the income per capita in PPP. See figure 7 on page 7 for the social mobility. US is among the least mobile countries in OECD. (Only Italy and UK are at the similar level.) Again, it has not changed much since this brief was written.
I will comment on your Just Facts study after reading it more carefully. I have one question: if Americans are paying for services Europeans are getting for free (paid by tax revenue) or simply paying more for the same service, does that mean Americans have a higher living standard for simply spending more money?
This one is for you, Sally. Here's a fundamental difference between folks like agip, Just Another Hobby Jogger, Flagpole, Proud Boomer, nonequals, Fat Hurts (RIP), etc. and folks like you, "Adult", runnerboy70, etc.
When is the last time we saw members of the latter group debating each other on matters of substance using real data? It happens quite frequently among the former group.

It tells me you're mentally diseased and think any data that doesn't jive with your preconceived notions isn't "real data".

You make sleepy Joe look really smart for having Ted Lasso visit the white house yesterday. So happy that you will now be able to get help with your mental problems. I look forward to your insulting replies. Let it all out. Doesn't that make you feel better now?

What the f*** other word do you expect us to use for:
- "Jan 6 was fake or a just demonstration or....."
- "Trump didn't try to steal an election."
- "Trump's not that bad."
- "Joe Biden is senile. And MORE corrupt and dishonest than Trump."
You guys say sh** like this on a daily basis. Moran is kind.
