Looks like mark meadows is gonna catch a contempt charge for blowing off the committee..and, in the process, still managed to hand over incriminating documents, as well as incidentally revealing that he committed a crime the committee didn't even ask him about. How can every one of them be this dumb?

Jewish parent in California is suing the local school district for banning a menorah display at a Christmas tree lighting ceremony. “Defendants have endorsed, and continue to endorse, religion by sending the message that Christians are officially favored, and non-Christians disfavored, by school officials,” she says.

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"

More fun from the sedition squad. They are apparently thinking about pleading the fifth, despite not being charged with anything and not being on trial for anything. Way to blow up any notion that you don't have any beans to spill by suggesting that answering questions would violate your right against self incrimination. They don't give a shit anymore..if I had to guess, they're certain that they're going to win the political struggle that they're just trying to wait out. As certain was they were when they initially decided to conspire against the us.

I guess this could go in the official spread of covid 19 thread..since it's an official plan to spread covid 19....hey, question for a friend, when can we suggest that these domestic terrorists are suicide bombers? That they've been radicalized to the point of being willing to infect themselves with a biological agent in order to use it as a weapon to bring about the fall of american democracy. They're the ones who kept telling us it was a weapon..weren't they....?

What happened, doc?
Quote:Republican Mehmet Oz — now campaigning on outlawing abortion and overturning Roe v. Wade — has previously denounced the idea of a highly-restrictive law outlawing abortions "as dangerous, unfair to women, and premised on misleading information."

Not sure this counts as news, per se, but I think it might be an example of Horseshoe Theory in action, at least if you count Christian extremism and Muslim extremism as two different poles of the same horseshoe:

Can anyone make sense of today's "split decision", over the Texas abortion law?
