You’d think the maga folks would be lining up to name k2-8b or whatever it is after their lord Trump.

Life could be so advanced in other places that the equivalent of them looking at us could be like us looking at a couple of cells.  They may not have contacted us due to our primitive nature.  It could also mean that anybody looking at us is in fact looking at the past.  They might see an unhinabited earth or even dinosaurs and say "Nah, don't need that. Nothing there for us."

 

There are probably be some planets like that. My hypothesis is that most other planets with life are anywhere from the primordial ooze to caveman stage.

The blacker and whiter it gets, the closer we get to openly rounding up and disappearing entire groups of people in plain view of everyone else, who will comment about what’s happening before their eyes at their peril.

If hundreds of thousands of ciminals were let into the country, why did the violent crime rate not rise last year?  

I understand that there are logistical problems with allowing too many immigrants into the country at the same time, but they are lying about the violent crime wave.

I realize that you guys know that!

“Crooked Joe Biden cooked the books on crime figures.”

See how easy that was?

What alarmed Nicholas Reppucci, head of the Charlottesville Office of the Public Defender, is that the enforcers called in to detain the two men in the city Tuesday morning were wearing plain clothes and did not display badges or arrest warrants.

Somehow merely saying it's "highly alarming" isn't a strong enough response. It sounds borderline mealy-mouthed and punch-pulled.

They're putting those aside for the citizen militias. The professionals will still wear camo and flak.
