β€œ The plan hit a snag when Mullin was told by the U.S. ambassador to Tajikistan, John Mark Pommersheim, and other embassy staff that transferring large sums of money would violate the country’s cash law limits. As the Post reported, Mullin turned sour:

Embassy officials told Mullin they could not assist him in skirting Tajikistan’s laws on cash limits on his way to visiting one of the most dangerous places on earth.

Mullin was outraged by the response, the officials said β€” threatening U.S. ambassador John Mark Pommersheim and embassy staff and demanding to know the name of staff members he was speaking with.β€œ

Fucking THIS.

As I understand it yes, that’s the intent.

I wonder whether corporate entities can also be sued (they are people, after all…)? For instance, if a woman flew from Texas to Boston and terminated her pregnancy in Massachusetts, could the airline be sued for facilitating the procedure? Them’s deep pockets there. Guessing the misogynists in Texas wouldn’t be averse to a big payday to help bankroll their abusive dystopia.

I think every physical confrontation instigated by a MAGAt in Texas, including car accidents, which involve a pregnant woman as the victim should be reported.

That’s not who they’re trying to target? Oh, well.

Better make it any incident involving any woman, just to be β€œsafe.” You never know who might be pregnant.

It’s so odd… Looking at the Fox News site, there is just a wall of stories about the fall of Afghanistan to the Taliban.

There is nary a story in sight about the fall of Texas to the Taliban.

Irish abortion bans fell to freedom of movement as a right under EU law.

It takes and took a lot more than that but it was the start.

β€œOne of the reasons that open carry is so dangerous is because it’s so difficult to enforce,” Karwoski said. β€œIt’s hard for law enforcement when they see someone walking down the street with a military-style assault weapon to understand their intentions and respond accordingly.”

It’s not western ny politics if it doesn’t involve right winger nonsense, shenanigans and general trickery and treachery

What, trying to prove the dead kids β€œweren’t angels?” This is straight up bullshit harassment. β€œDrop your suit or we will release the info on your child’s hair pulling incident!” WTAF.

Sounds like they have pretty good grounds for appeal and maybe even an injunction, if the judge had undisclosed conflicts of interest and failed to recuse themself.

β€œThere is no conceivable way that these [records] will assist Remington in its defense, and the plaintiffs do not understand why Remington would invade the families’ privacy with such a request. Nonetheless, this personal and private information has been produced to Remington.”

Yep.

Bingo. Admittedly, not on the set of the 2021 bingo cards I [don’t] have, but whevs.


Hoping to unplug this Labor Day Weekend and focus on good things, nature, overdue house repainting. Listening to Terry Pratchett audiobooks while scraping and sanding rough cedar siding prior to priming and painting in 95Β°F heat (with 57% humidity) is a fine way to totally not think about this bs for a while. I made a gallon of green iced tea and I have ice packs in the freezer ready to go, for a thing that looks like this:

I mean… Brown is a democrat?

It’s centrists vs. socialists it seems in this case.
