The pteronarcyidae prefer swift riffles between cobbles and boulders. They are intolerant to loss of coarse particulate organic matter that is their food and habitat.

Did he shoot her as a way to get back at her wife? I am honestly asking. This seems the only thing that makes sense.

These guys are CLEARLY being trained that 18 USC 111 is violated when anyone follows an ICE agent, makes noise, or otherwise documents what they are doing in a way that can alert others in the area that they are around.
They are VERY confident of this interpretation of the law.

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.
The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

A bit underplayed that the Homan sting didn't reportedly come out of a public corruption investigation, it was a counter-intelligence one. Which means they somehow made the not-very-far leap to him from initially targeting a foreign and almost certainly state actor.

We're at the stage that if you have a better idea of what people need to do, then you have to do it. And maybe it starts with a couple of people and grows. YOU really have to do it.

Slack-jawed, I believe.
Donald Trump seems to be slack-jawed in every photo. This could be the sign of some sudden neurological problem. I’m not a doctor, but I find this very unusual for a man who typically offers a giant Cheshire Cat smile at the camera and gives a thumbs up.

Whatthefuck for the 8000th time this year…
Since I looked it up: The Bismarck was laid down by the Nazi government in 1936, christened by Hitler himself on Valentine’s Day 1939, and damaged so badly in battle by the Royal Navy in 1941 that the Nazis scuttled her. The ship never saw any other government of Germany.
This is Heritage Foundation Chief Economist EJ Antoni, Trump's new nominee for Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner.
And THAT is his Nazi battleship wall art/Zoom background.

Not going to pls many with this. But I think a much better way to express this is to say: “I would hope he can appreciate that there are many members of the Jewish community who find that phrase menacing or threatening. Speak to some of those people. Understand that experience …

You wouldn’t have a single house built without Mexicanos. You wouldn’t have strawberries or tomatoes or cantaloupe or cabbage or lettuce or the grapes to make your Chardonnay or Merlot without the backbreaking work of Mexicanos. White ppl demonize the very ppl who literally put food on your plate.
