"Theory" is not a gift from the thinking society to those pseudo-researchers who strive to recycle commonplaces. Good theory invites us to think, to question it, to find flaws in what it proposes. To repeat the trite, let's rather stay at home.

Lindsey Halligan is incompetent and her cases may be tossed. She told the grand jury that James Comey had no Fifth Amendment right to avoid testifying at his own trial and they didn’t need to rely solely on the record because the government had more evidence.

U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro wasted our money pursuing sandwich thrower
To establish a forcible assault, jurors were required to find that Dunn caused “reasonable apprehension of immediate bodily harm.” That allegation was laughable.

Opinion | The sandwich thrower was wrong. But Jeanine Pirro was, too.

The sedilia at St Mary’s, Piddlehinton. Prettily carved 15th-century stone triple-seat in the chancel, used by clergy during Mass. Trefoiled arches and a moulded cornice, typiche of late medieval Perpendicular style.

Good evening fair world. I’ve been looking at the trees this afternoon. Where would we be without trees? So connected to our essence as human beings. Trees, rivers, the moon, the sky, old buildings, trackways through woods, flowers and birds. 🌳

Why can’t you guys just accept that Trump’s tariffs didn’t cause any problems, but Trump CUTTING tariffs on some of the things he PUT tariffs on will SOLVE the problem (which the tariffs didn’t create)

In a complete panic, Trump now calls for the release of the Epstein files. What do we think? He struck a deal for redacted files, or Pam Bondi will say she can’t due to ongoing investigation, or Trump realized his followers won’t actually care?
