Roe v Wade is dead. They haven't said the magic words yet, but the scotus letting the Texas anti-abortion law stand is beyond the pale.

Nice self-victimization and good job putting words in my mouth. I'd also like to see you back up this claim.

I'm not sure who is ultimately responsible but considering it's Texas they'll absolutely have dems arrested in order to push through the bill.

While I admire the effort, why do you folks still take ninjamonkey seriously?

I can't tell you how the bill is going to be financed, because very little about the 'american families plan' reconciliation bill is actually known. What I can tell you is that what you're describing here is not how things actually work, at all. The government does print money, but what finances public works and investment is mostly public debt. The sort of thing the right gets very angry about going up when someone else is in charge, then keeps quiet about when it goes up massively under their administration. The funny thing about national debt for countries like the US is that interest on them is near zero. And, like with all investment, the question is whether or not there will be a good return on investment. The answer to that question is absolutely, unequivocally, yes. A lot of parents are stuck at home because they can't afford to pay for daycare, per example. Along the same lines, investment in good, free/cheap education is always a good investment, and one that's desperately needed.

What's your point here? The congress is getting trump's tax returns because it wants them and has fought a years-long legal battle to obtain them. Obviously they're interested in reading them.

Leave it up to Sinema (and Manchin) to blow up a wildly popular bill that would do much to improve a lot of lives.

I feel like it might be relevant for the people who are reading this thread, the next SRW game will also be released in America and Europe, for the first time ever.

Until not very long ago, the DoJ was filled with Trump appointees who had an interest in doing nothing, and the DoJ is also busy with prosecuting people involved with the jan 6th insurrection. Also not sure if threatening election workers can/will be prosecuted under state or federal statute.

Venice was a major power in the Mediterranean in it's heyday. In the same vein Poland, or rather the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was an elective monarchy with a proto-parliament called the Sejm, and it was one of the major European powers for a few hundred years. The Dutch republic was a globe spanning empire that rivalled the British Empire during the time of the American Revolution. Great Britain had an elected parliament. Much of of the American constitution was in fact founded in principles of British law.

A lot of people, actually. Most of them at least reasonably intelligent.

Qanon is 4chan bullshit getting mainstreamed thanks to facebook, reddit and twitter It might be a joke to some, but the jan 6th attack on the capitol says otherwise for at least a part of the movement or whatever the hell it is.

I'll just give you Soldato-J

Since this isn't really moving, I'll just give you a second character. How about Roux Louka.

I'll give you George de Sand. He seems like someone you'd like. Birthday will be 1/30, bloodtype A. For earliest Soul, you see. edit: actually, make that Guy Shishioh.

You sure are flashing those tory colours

I was told the prosecution is looking for an upward departure from the normal sentencing guidelines, so we'll see. I think that a jury that's willing to convict is willing to sentence to a long sentence (if that's the jury's job and not the judge's, I don't really know)

We're well past the point where "a few bad apples" narrative has any credibility. Police in the US is rotten to the core and needs to be cleansed.

Police never get convicted for murder on the job. This is really an outlier.

I would honestly just increase the tax on gas. Yeah, cars have gotten more economical, but the price of a tank of gas in the US is still much lower than in most of Europe.

It's just not a crazy man and his toadies' rambling anymore. There's still a lot of stuff happening. People getting fired left, right, and center, DeJoy about to get ousted as postmaster general, ICE receiving special attention, and DOJ going after the insurrectionists harder than the previous admin.

At first I thought that I was neutral, then I realized that in my experience, all who say this exact thing use it to excuse bad behaviour or bad outcomes. So put me down for bad thing.

I never even got around to playing MXP in the last 4 years. If I'm going to do this, and I'm not sure I am, it's going to be very basic. If there's at least a menu translation patch, that'd be much appreciated.

ICE is full of piece of shit humans, from top to bottom.

I'm not happy with the acquittal and wanted to see witnesses, because republicans deserve to be made to look bad on national television.
