teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Mitch is a fucking weasel. Suddenly he is willing to give review to a black female nominee. Yea, because the asshole knows the replacement won't change the 6-3 slant.

He’s not ‘willing’ to consider anyone Biden nominates. He doesn’t have a choice.

I agree, but that won't stop the fucker playing to his base, saying "You can't bring up Garland now because we reviewed a black woman."
He is doing this because he knows it won't change the balance.
Mitch is like the asshole NFL player who commits a un-sportsman conduct penalty but the home team reffs don't want it called, he fails to see it, because he does not want to see it or admit it, because it is to his advantage.

Again, he’s doing nothing but bowing to the inevitable. He can’t stop Biden’s nominee from being voted on, the way he did with Garland.
Regarding your football metaphor, a better situation would be a fired coach not objecting to a particular player being signed.

It must be because of Mitch's tribal instincts.

Afghanistan: Parents sell children and kidneys to feed starving families
After the withdrawal of Western forces from Afghanistan last year, the Taliban regime took over but has not received international recognition. Afghans are now resorting to desperate measures to feed themselves as aid struggles to reach them.
The Taliban says this is all a Western myth, dreamed up by evil, dishonest Western media to discredit them.
They also say all girls in the country are in education, that schools and universities are all open and they're not rounding up female activists or carrying out vendettas against those who worked with the foreign troops once stationed here for two decades.
The lack of worldwide recognition of the Taliban government has meant a country which was previously almost wholly dependent on foreign aid has seen that all but dry up.

CNN reporting that Tom Brady is retiring. About fucking time. If any player of any team in history wins a ring, they are doing good. Tom shattered the records. But I really got tired of him hanging on too long.

I really think it would have been better if Biden had said he was going to look for the best person for the job. Full fucking stop.
