    2 people were killed and 8 others injured in shooting at Brown University

    The only way he would walk is if they changed their mind about his likely guilt. If they were still reasonably confident he was the right guy, they would have charged him with something just to hold him, even if it was something petty.

    The left *has* to do that to maintain their "only the professionals can handle this" narrative. If they went with the truth of "the professionals won't arrive in time to do anything but clean up the mess, you're on your own till then", it would absolutely destroy the doctrine they are trying to...

    Every time one of the dems introduces impeachment proceedings against Trump or a conservative, one of the Republicans should introduce impeachment proceedings against one of the activist judges. Boasberg would be a good place to start.

    Europe in Chaos

    Enough time has passed that the people in charge don't remember the last one first hand. So they think they can "win". It's an inescapable cycle. They just don't get that everyone loses (except defense contractors). The only question is how badly.

    New York State Enacts Cash Acceptance Law

    The cost of keeping cash around is the 3-10% it evaporates every year due to inflation. Imagine if you'd stuck $10k in cash under your mattress for Y2k and just left it there. That $10k would have lost nearly 50% of it's value. It would still be $10k, but it would only buy the same stuff that...

    Japanese internment was not legal, not in any way shape or form. If it was legal to imprison people just because their grandfather was from a country we happen to be at war with, then it would be legal to just round up all the white people and lock them in camps because "social justice" too.

    I think the thing with the Epstein files is that the whole world order would burn to the ground if they were released in full. Where I disagree with Trump is I say that's a price worth paying, and I think he's scared of the power vacuum it would leave.

    The president can sign the documents using any means he chooses, autopen included. But, there's a lot of evidence that Biden wasn't the one signing these.
