    @loki said in UK to make millions of HK residents eligible for visas: The UK imperative is easy to understand, and probably was contemplated in the original deal - if and when China took over. It was. I believe that when the China handover in 1997, the residents at that time were offered to either take a UK passport, or the special HK passport. Most took the special HK passport, as they had "roots" there and did not want to give that up.

    @andyd said in Censored ?: I can't believe Melania didn't take her chance to speak out on the departure podium and repeat her tweet that the Capitol rioters are patriots You are definitely a low-life, classless piece of shit, aren't you? Larry was right...

    @lufins-dad said in Day One's Exective Orders: A masking challenge? How fun! People will do anything when it’s a challenge! Ice Buckets, Tide Pods, Spoonfuls of Cinnamon, and wearing masks! How about a 100 Day Colorblind Challenge! No referencing somebody’s race for political gain for 100 Days? Or the corruption challenge! No Biden accepts payment to work in industries that they have no experience or qualifications for? It’s fun! CNN can run a little countdown on their scroll! WHO? Seriously? After the crap they pulled last year? After it became obvious how corrupt that group is? Makes perfect sense... Does this extend for ANY reason or just failure to pay? If somebody’s trashing the joint is the landlord no longer able to evict? Are the landlords being taken care of in the meantime if a tenant isn’t paying? When the moratorium ends do we expect that the tenant will be able to suddenly pay the 18 months of back rent they couldn’t pay before? Hell, 18 months of rent would make a pretty decent down payment. If someone had more brains than honor they could really abuse this. Landlords are screwed no matter what. Do you realize we’ve made more climate progress without the accord than we did in it?Doesn’t matter, though. There’s a lot of money passing hands in the accord... 8&9 Oh no! He’s failing the Colorblind Challenge already! It's all about the benjamins. Joe's family has to eat....

    @horace said in RUSSIA!!!: So who here disagrees that the Capitol raid played to the American left and to Putin? Certainly it played to the left in the headlines, obviously. In our pocketbooks? Yes, it will be used as an excuse to spend money, the current security presence around DC for example. At the ballot box? Maybe, maybe not. At the moment the blame goes 100% to one man who might not be on any more ballots.

    @jon-nyc said in Trump reopens flood gates to the swamp: @loki No, he's given his own staff flexibility to go work as lobbyists. No order Biden gives will reverse that. OK I see that now. Now for some semi snark... they won’t get jobs in this country as we are so happy to cancel them all so they will have the opportunity to work abroad.

    @taiwan_girl said in Is this why Barr left?: But I agree, as accurate accounts come from people with time in the President Trump whitehouse, it is unlikely that many (if any) will write him in a positive way. Says who?

    I thought the reason for resurrecting this thread was that TN is the most immigrated to state in the nation as of last year.

    We've reached peak "crazy people are virtuous". Well, I hope we've reached the peak. But the ideas those who lean left can effortlessly carry in their heads never cease to amaze me.

    Plus the fact that there was no security at the Capitol was the best thing to happen for Democrats in many years.

    @doctor-phibes said in The Biden Coup: @renauda said in The Biden Coup: @doctor-phibes said in The Biden Coup: You'd think Fox News would have the money to stand up to Dominion. Mr. Occam suggests a simpler answer may be at hand. You bet. What they need is Captain Sisko. I've long suspected that Orange Julius is in actual fact a Ferengi. Keeping up with the Cardassians, perhaps? That's a masterful dig.

    And I make this soup all the time in the instant pot. Usually with barley, and whatever meat and veggies are in the fridge. Bone broth and wine and herbs and salt and pepper. Yum.
