Re: US Supreme Court Discussions
That depends on when he first started flying that flag, since it's history greatly pre-dates the insurrection.

Re: Trump Charged With 37 counts of Espionage, Obstruction and related crimes
Ugh, Trump's defenders are (willfully?) misunderstanding what it means that the FBI was authorized to "engage" with the Secret Service as part of the search. It's clear from the context that the meaning is "work with," but Trump fans think it means "shoot at." Leave it...

Re: The (no longer) much too early 2024 election thread
Just as a general comment, there is no reason why you can't start a new thread for a topic that doesn't fit well in existing threads. just sayin'.

Re: US Supreme Court Discussions
As others have noted, the most problematic part of the new flag news is that it raises more questions about the "neighbor" excuse that Alito gave for the other flag. Clearly, the Alitos like to fly "meaningful" flags.

Re: Trump Charged With 37 counts of Espionage, Obstruction and related crimes
Thanks for that reminder (which I shouldn't need, but apparently do), that these days, CNN largely can't be relied on. I was disappointed that none of the my usual sources of information about Trump-related legal hearings (primarily the reporters from Lawfare) seemed to be covering that hearing (or ...

Re: The challenges ahead (Biden's America)
I am not, as I think y'all know, naive about the various forces of darkness that propagate our universe, and I fully support taking whatever actions are necessary to expose and oppose those forces. Sometimes the only resource we have is patience, and the realization that as bad as things sometimes s...

Oh my. I can't imagine what Harbach was thinking; they are in precarious enough a situation with Cannon without antagonizing her more.

Re: The challenges ahead (Biden's America)
What you all say is true, but that doesn't change the fact that change comes first from within. It might not become obvious right away, but eventually the forces of negativity can and will be overcome.
Of course, it might be the dolphins doing so.

It's easy to blame the media, or rich people, or whoever else. I advocate looking in the mirror.

You can say that it is poor messaging, but people are going to believe what they want to believe, no matter how untrue it is.

Re: White Council and topics they discussed
I don't think they are contradictory, just two different versions of the same tale told on different ways. In Appendix B it says in the entry for 2953 that Saruman "feigns that he discovered" that the One Ring went to the Sea, but it doesn't say that he never previously made that claim. In...
