Cops have been abusing the exigent circumstances exemption to warrants for decades without consequences.

Shooting people's animals? Yeah, they've done that, as well. For decades. Without consequences. Because they just whine, "I was in fear for my safety!". Worked for killing unarmed people.

"It also found the university failed to investigate, did not follow its own policies and never proved the allegations used to justify her dismissal."

So, they fired her for supposedly not following policy, and didn't follow policy themselves. That's so MAGA!

It's the internet. You could post, "Hi, hope you're well.", and some people will complain.

That's why there is a block feature.

Yeah, this is pretty much all the holiday spirit and cheer I muster now days. Wife made it for me. 👍

If they had one that said, "I stab my husband in his sleep", she'd have already made that one for herself. 😂

That's good young lady. Hopefully this one will be a good holiday season for you.

Wife and I are at the point of "wtf do we get each other because we've already gotten each other everything". 🤷‍♂️

I'm waiting for the time when I get just a card that reads, "this year, you live." 👍

If progressives had enough to enforce change, they would have.

The vote at the DNC was pretty split on Hogg, but in Congress? Not even close.
November 22, 2025 at 9:00 PM
You're 100% correct.

The system protects who it wishes to protect and punishes the victim for seeking justice. SA cases are extremely bad in this regard. It's awful and can be soul crushing.

Many judges aren't even hiding it anymore, though it's been going on for a long LONG time.
November 22, 2025 at 7:04 PM
Yes. And that change had started to happen when Hogg got elected to the DNC.

Then the corp-Dems forced him out and many people here on bsky cheered them on.

Now people are saying, "we need change". Good luck with it. Too many here and in DC are backing the corp-Dems.

At the moment? Absolutely nothing. AOC tried for years to get a bill through Congress making it illegal for members of Congress and their families to trade stocks. Nancy Pelosi blocked it.
November 22, 2025 at 3:45 PM
That pretty much a huge majority of Congress is doing it.

On the subject of cats...

Enjoy a good laugh young lady.

You already answered your question.

You want the devil and smut gargoyle romance.

So read it. 🤷‍♂️

I've not finished way too many books to pass up on one that I DO want to read.

Temporarily, yes. The DNC is running Harris. AGAIN. Who had already lost to Greene. Just a matter of time before her seat is filled by a bootlicker.
November 22, 2025 at 10:53 AM
So, my response to those going "you don't knowww"

She's getting Liz Cheney'd. Attacks already coming at her from the MAGA base. She'll be primaried. With no support. Meaning no money and Faux News 24/7 attacking her.

She's jumping ship.

Trump says he's withdrawing support for Marjorie Taylor Greene, may back primary opponent
President Trump said late Friday he will no longer support Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, marking a dramatic break with a onetime Trump loyalist who has increasingly criticized the president ...

"The president said he's withdrawing his endorsement of Greene and will support a primary challenge against her"

MTG: "fighting to release the Epstein files, defending women who were victims of rape, and fighting to expose the web of rich powerful elites would have caused this, but here we are."
November 22, 2025 at 10:33 AM
How big of a mouth does MTG have?

How many posts of "oh, I've gotten threats by (insert)" has she made?

She got told behind the scenes that she'd be primaried, ala Liz Cheney, so she knows how that's going to turn out.

Her BEST shot is getting out and avoiding that primary.

100%.

The tropes aren't new. Many are millennia or centuries old. Want doomed romance? Romeo and Juliet. Doomed hero? Beowulf. Hero's journey fighting monsters? Gilgamesh, a 4000 yr old story. Revenge plot? Hamlet.

No. She just realizes that any primary opponent is going to get all of the funding and she won't be able to compete. They'll smear her 24/7 in ads and she won't have the money to fight it.

It's not about the district. It's about her.

So. A few things.

1) Arabic numerals are literally 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. The numbers we use every day.

2) It's not true. Mamdani has made no such announcement.

3) The rumor was spread either as satire to prank MAGA or to perpetuate a lie and inflame people that don't know #1.

Or, they are being employed by DHS as acting agents while not, technically, having been through the certifications and regular employment processes which is why DHS is claiming he's "not one of theirs" while the guy is running around saying he's ICE.

Think deputized citizen. Technically, not a cop.
