Thank God we have responsible adults in the White House to deal with this.

Something not discussed much is Israel's intelligence. Its next level.

This is big

No doubt you watch it, thanks for the feminine outburst response for confirmation.

After quickly perusing to satisfy your curiosity of my opinion, apparently the Senator was being a putz, and was lucky he wasn’t tazed. As I said…theater.
 

But, you still chose Teasip U. So, your judgement has been off for a while then…😉

I’m sure that’s what they had in mind, democrats always trying to do the right thing.
😂😂😂

Entrance requirements were too high. 🤓

Yes you do, your posts might as well come from Joy Behar or Sonny Hostin.
You should have gone to A&M, at least that would have given you a chance for normalcy.

An absolute waste of time, baddog.

I agree, never was a fan.

I give "people" more credit than apparently UT Alum and the Democrats.....
I think every able bodied person, even folks with some disabilities, are capable of supporting themselves. 
I think if more people thought that way, we as a society would be in a better place

Totally agree. I work with physically and mentally disabled people….(a percentage of the parent s use them for gain….pathetic and sad) 
a good portion of these people are amazing in the sense of they don’t let their disability hold them back….they have a great attitude and a good worth ethic…..they aim to please.  
I know some veterans who ve lost limbs and do a better job than those with all their limbs.
really if anyone wants to accomplish something then victim mentality is not part of that equation even if they are a real victim unlike these fake victims.

Couldn’t agree more with this statement.

Exactly!  

He is threatening who was his top donor to not start supporting Democrats or watch out. Turmoil is brewing in the party and the mountain is growing like Paracutin.

True dat!

That’s the same logic of preventing school shootings by declaring schools as gun free zones. 

No doubt. We grew up poor as church mice after my parents divorced. My Mom refused food stamps, or housing assistance. She said as long as we could get by getting clothes from the Treasure house (donated clothing) and grow a garden and things of that nature, she would never consider assistance. And she never did. We had very little, but we got summer & after school jobs to help out my Mom with bills and buy our own school lunches. I've always thought that made us a stronger family and us kids stronger individuals. Even though she's gone now, I still thank her for that lesson all the time.
I have no issue with assistance for those that need it. Emphasis on the last 5 words of that sentence...

Mexico sued several US firearms manufacturers as being responsible for murders in Mexico  
It was not completely unexpected to be a winning case for firearms manufacturers but the unanimous decision, authored by Kagan, is a welcome sight.

The case is Smith & Wesson et al. V. Estados Unidos Mexicanos (Mexico)

Smith & Wesson was sued along with six other gun manufacturers (Colt, Glock, Ruger, Baretta, etc.) in the United States by Mexico. The claim (that might have shut them down) was that those manufacturers were responsible for gun violence in Mexico and because the cartels used American manufactured guns. Mexico claimed that since the manufacturers did not strictly police or regulate who bought goes from FFL’s, they were responsible.

The First Circuit Court of Appeals covering Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Puerto Rico ruled in favor of Mexico saying the suit could go forward. The firearms manufacturers appealed to the Supreme Court and their ruling was issued a few hours ago.

A unanimous Supreme Court ruled that the federal law, Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, protects firearms manufacturers from lawsuits in state and federal courts unless it can be shown that the manufacturer was complicit by aiding and abetting the illegal gun transfers. Mexico showed no evidence that any of the manufacturers were knowingly helping the drug cartels to obtain the guns.

The decision was authored by Elana Kagan who in her order wrote….
“Finally, Mexico's allegations about the manufacturers’ design and marketing decisions" add nothing of consequence. As noted above, Mexico here focuses on the manufacturers' production of "military style" assault weapons, among which it includes AR-15 ri-fles, AK-47 rifles, and .50 caliber sniper rifles. But those products are both widely legal and bought by many ordinary consumers.
(The AR-15 is the most popular rifle in the country.) The manufacturers cannot be charged with assisting in criminal acts just because Mexican cartel members like those guns too”

So in the Opinion of the Court written by Kagan, the AR15, AK47 and similar guns are “widely legal and bought by many ordinary consumers”. She then noted that the AR15 is the most popular rifle in the country.

That language may come up in the next session or two when the Supreme Court takes up the assault weapons ban in some states under the premise that they should not be included in the common use test in the Supreme Court cases of  Heller and Bruen.

The main facts that are important here in my opinion are that even the liberal leaning justices, saw the stupidity of Mexico‘s claim and issued a ruling to protect gun manufacturers against what I think is a frivolous claim and that Kagan wrote the opinion. In doing so wrote that the assault rifles and even sniper rifles were widely legal and purchased by consumers and that the AR15 was the most popular rifle in the country.

The flabbergasting part is that the First Circuit Court thought that the manufacturers should be liable if one of their weapons was later used to commit a crime. I guess in their opinion, if a drunk driver killed someone, the family should be able to sue Exxon-Mobil for manufacturing the gasoline. 

 

Yes he may have been the worst president of my lifetime.  He was also easily the best ex-president.  No one did more good with their time after being in office than that guy.  If I could bet on one ex-president for sure being in heaven, it’s that guy. 

My Father pasted away in December of 2020, he would of been 90 Jan 19th.  I remember several months before he passed, I took him to Wal-Mart to pick up some things. That was a big deal in itself, because I drove his truck. He didn't want to give up the keys, but he had no business on the road. He had Lewy body dementia, so it affects mind and balance.
Anyway, we had to park several spots from the entrance and he was struggling to walk but refused to use a walker. I picked up a shopping cart on the way and he used that to help him walk and keep his balance.  I told him he should get a handicap sticker for his truck so he could park close. He looked at me straight in the eyes and said, " Son, they only give out so many of those, so I don't want to take one away from someone who really needs it". 
Lying to benefit your family or any type of fraud, takes money or goods from someone.  BTW, my Dad was raised poor, lived on a houseboat in Louisiana and started working when he was around 10. He made a good life for himself because he seen what poor was.
