Re: Kyler Rasmussen and the Book of Abraham

It seems unlikely that the Book of Abraham would disagree with what the most learned academic minds would have to say on the subject, or that a fraudulent one could in any way align with what we’d expect from the ancient world. What a mess of a sentence. Imagine writing this way about any other sub...

What would happen if Kyler Rasmussen presented his findings to a true academic journal?

Re: Trump and Intelligence Briefings

I can’t quite tell from the video clip, but did Mr. Priest disclose his sources that fed him this information? Here’s his lawfare podcast interview that might shed more light on the matter: https://www.lawfareblog.com/lawfare-podcast-trump-and-his-intelligence-briefings-david-priess It’s 55 minutes...

Re: Rittenhouse Trial: Calling Res Ipsa

Well, that is the advantage of being the last man standing. Except three men were left standing, two of which declined to testify. One did. Why wouldn’t the DA have offered some sort of deal to the other two men if this were an effective strategy? - Doc Sorry Doc, I misunderstood your point. Yes, w...

Re: Trump and Intelligence Briefings

Apparently it was just impossible to brief him on anything because it required listening, and Trump constantly interrupted with his derailing rants. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6RIFOcIq7E Given this, why would anyone want a commander in chief who cannot have adult discussions with military off...

Re: Rittenhouse Trial: Calling Res Ipsa

Does it? If they thought, whether mistaken or not, that they were legally using less than deadly force to protect others, their intent was to exercise the rights the state gives to its citizens — not to enforce the laws. If they thought … I suppose they could testify to a jury or judge what they th...

Re: Rittenhouse Trial: Calling Res Ipsa

Multiple times, by multiple people, the protesters have been referred to as vigilantes. Could someone help explain to me how they fit that label? Weren’t Rittenhouse, et.al. the ones who were taking upon themselves a role of law enforcement by setting out to protect private property against lawless...

Re: Juicy Smollet Trial

Just when you thought Dave Chapple was the last laugh on the story, nope! The Juicy defense is now that he was set up! His two friends: 1) Forced Juicy to pay them for their help in the scam 2) Forced Juicy to make up the story about roving bands of Trump supporters yelling anti-gay slurs and "This...

Re: Michigan School Shooting

This is how I think about it: The ultimate purpose of a media company is to make money. If it's a publicly traded company, it has a legal duty to maximize shareholder profits. Who a media company chooses to target as an audience will inevitably affect the product it sells to its customers. Fox News ...
