Just landed at SFO and I could not find the girls bathroom.
Come to find out all the restrooms in my terminal were changed to “all gender.”
Now listen, have your all gender restrooms, fine. But can you keep the male and female restrooms as well?
Walking into a bathroom of 12 + stalls, to be surrounded by men is beyond uncomfortable— I want don’t want to go to the bathroom next to a man, I don’t want to freshen up next to a man, I don’t even want to give a man the opportunity to stare at me in the bathroom.
If I’m allowed to chose a female driver for my Ubers just to feel “safe and comfortable” then I should be able to chose a female only restroom.
Keep the same energy
@HedgehogDogs@IAmPoliticsGirl I would not deign to give actual legal advice online, and certainly not without getting paid!
But it took seconds to discover that Barbados still holds marriage records from before their 1966 independence, managed by the Registration Department at the Supreme Court in Barbados.
@Sroneous@IAmPoliticsGirl Great! Can you help me? I was married in Barbados on a wedding/honeymoon trips over 30 years ago, when Barbados was part of Great Britain. Now it has separated and has a new government. They say my marriage certificate is no longer available. What do I do? I mean, since you know.
@IAmPoliticsGirl Certified copies of misplaced birth & marriage certificates are easy to get. All states have online portals guiding you thru the process.
And it's inexpensive too. In Massachusetts it's only $20; essentially free, discounting labor and materials.
Dems never stop lying, do they?
@EdKrassen Democrats are trying to deal now that ICE is bringing down the unbearable lines at airports.
They lost their leverage…. Chronically delaying travelers…. And they are still pushing for a solution that will allow them to defund ICE if they win the midterms.
BREAKING: Republican Senator Kennedy just blamed Trump the government shutdown!
"The Democrats have offered to open up everything but ICE. Ted Cruz and I said, ‘OK let’s accept their offer…’ Senator Thune submitted that to President Trump. As is his right, [Trump] said ‘No! No deals with the Democrats.’ It would have worked. We could have had TSA paid by the end of the week but the President said ‘no deal.’”
This is the DONALD TRUMP SHUTDOWN!
Even Republicans are acknowledging it.
TSA wait times in Phoenix are less than 20 minutes. How is it possible that they are 90+ minutes in places like Atlanta and New Orleans? This shouldn't be hard to figure out.
Factually innocent isn’t a jury verdict in America.
A myth you’re inventing to sound smart.
Juries say not guilty, which means innocent under the law.
Mueller didn’t conclude guilt.
His own report says it does not conclude that the president committed a crime. He just tacked on a custom smear that he admitted had zero precedent anywhere.
Special Counsels aren’t the rest of us free to imply guilt over coffee. They’re supposed to be beyond reproach.
Former Trump White House attorney Ty Cobb blasts Trump’s “shameful” and “despicable” post about Robert Mueller’s death:
“He’s a demented narcissist. You know, seriously hates anybody who stands in opposition to him, has reworked the justice department into a revenge machine, and rules the country in a very authoritarian manner with the assistance of a cowardly cabinet and even more cowardly Republicans in Congress.”
Cadbury has changed Easter to “This Season.”
But they’re still profiting from selling Easter Eggs.
Christianity is not shameful. It is not offensive.
Not another dime should be spent on Cadbury products by any Christian. Anywhere.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
We actually do have a factually innocent verdict, it's just rarely made, as I said. The fact you don't know that doesn't make it untrue. My "tricky wordsmithing detached from any principle" is straightforward legal speech strictly in keeping with our criminal justice system, of which I have been a part.
Innocent until proven guilty is not a moral foundation, it is a LEGAL presumption. It is for juries, not the rest of us. The rest of us are free not to believe and say that someone is innocent. We can conclude guilt. Mueller actually concluded guilt after his investigation but basically said Trump couldn't be prosecuted while in office.
Have you ever made this same argument about a Democrat? Clinton, perhaps?
No. Your reply is a textbook case of over-intellectualizing a clear moral failure.
We’re not in a law-school debate club splitting hairs about not guilty v some imaginary factually innocent verdict that doesn’t even exist in American trials.
Juries don’t render factually innocent, that’s a fiction.
A not guilty verdict affirms innocence under the law.
There is standard language for 200+ years when prosecutors cannot level charges. It’s insufficient evidence, or we are closing the case.
Mueller invented that not-exonerated line.
Innocent until proven guilty is a moral foundation of our entire justice system that binds every government investigator and prosecutor.
Mueller deliberately flipped it for one man only, then, as he knew, the entire media machine ran “TRUMP NOT EXONERATED” headlines for years. The public opinion verdict.
Mueller weaponized ambiguity against a president when the evidence didn’t support charges.
Your tricky wordsmithing detached from any principle may delight you for the fancy feeling of argument but it sends you off into ungrounded, amoral outer space.
He's very athletic. But what part of his skill set is worth floor time right now, and how do you compensate for the parts that aren't ready (e.g., defense)? He can't shoot from 3, he can't handle the ball, he can't make his rotations, and while he finishes at the rim well, his midrange is crap. Why play him?
It is almost 100 percent certainty that it will not happen, but I truly believe JJ needs to give Adou 3-4 games here this week of solid run. Maybe even all of Jakes minutes and back up SF minutes if you got Lebron/Luka/AR out when you play some of these lottery teams during this stretch after the Pistons tomorrow. Let's be real: it's a month before the playoffs, so a dramatic impact is unlikely, HOWEVER, Adou Thiero's skillset is the EXACT kind of skillset that can take this team over the top and they've desperately needed. He wont come in and play 30 minutes and be a super star, but if Jake is having a disaster game and you need to plug a guy in, here is that guy: you got him! on the bench! give him a chance here the next week or so to see what he does....
Sure. Notice that in our criminal trials we don't have verdicts of guilty or innocent, we have verdicts of guilty or not guilty, which are not the same. Not guilty just means that "while we could not conclude the defendant is guilty, we also do not conclude he was innocent."
There is a "factually innocent" verdict that can be rendered when it is proved that the defendant did not commit a crime, that is almost never rendered.
So Mueller's statement is entirely consistent with our legal standards. Besides, "innocent until proven guilty" is a standard for juries, not investigators.
Tell me how Mueller couldn’t conclude in factual evidence against Trump but also couldn’t say he was innocent when we’re all innocent until proven guilty as a major tenant to our laws?
“…while this report does not conclude that the president committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him.”
Trump posts that after the “death of Iran,” Americans’ “greatest enemy” is now the “Radical Left, Highly Incompetent, Democrat Party.”
This kind of rhetoric is beyond irresponsible and dangerous. It is anti-American.
This tells all:
Key excerpts from the video (Mueller’s 2019 House Judiciary Committee testimony on the Special Counsel Report):
•“…The evidence we obtained about the president’s actions and intent presents difficult issues that prevent us from conclusively determining that no criminal conduct occurred. Accordingly, while this report does not conclude that the president committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him.”
•Rep. Ratcliffe: “Where does that language come from, Director? … Where is the DOJ policy that says … an investigated person is not exonerated if their innocence from criminal conduct is not conclusively determined?”
•Mueller: “I cannot [provide any example other than Donald Trump] but this is unique.”
•Rep. Ratcliffe: “The special counsel job nowhere does say that you were to conclusively determine Donald Trump’s innocence or the special counsel report should determine whether [to] not exonerate him. It’s not in any of the documents … of the Constitution. Nowhere do those words appear together … The bedrock principle of our justice system is a presumption of innocence. It exists for everyone. Everyone is entitled…”
These are the clear segments demonstrating the gross political motivation: inventing and applying a non-standard, non-DOJ “does not exonerate” standard uniquely to President Trump (admitted as unprecedented), in direct violation of the presumption of innocence.
