No stranger to manufacturing unhinged conspiracy theories, Dixon also recently got caught claiming that Planned Parenthood has employed a  business model to   introduce sex to  7th graders so they can profit off of  plenty of abortions in high school   
 


true

Senator Sinema is making waves mid-bill vote-a-rama.

Of course.

She and Manchin wandered into Thune's office to discuss an amendment she would like to make.

There have been a few.  Both sides.  Its the process.

And now......as we are now where we are in this  case - Biden has been warned to do this through proper channels (low key) and to not propogandize  the matter.  Lets see what occurs.

(In other words, LeBron and all others - media, gay groups, etc - chill, let the government handle this and Ms Griner's status and her treatment will be more to the positive)

The question has been asked, not totally unreasonably, about the teacher being held in juxtaposition to Ms. Grines.

Let me expand the comparison:


Bizarre.  And yes it invites questions of certain sorts of privilege. 

The comparison I've usually seen is with the 60 year old teacher Mark Fogel, who got a stiffer sentence than Griner, for MM treating severe arthritis.  The outrage was mainly focused on his case not being mentioned by Biden and only reaching mid-level State Department officials.

Less than 50 per cent of drug offenders in Russia do jail time

Was Ms Griner properly represented?  Did they go overboard in accusing Russian authorities of being strict vs Ms Griner because she is

a)  black
b)  gay
c)  famous?

Had they played it more low key like Lorber did, who knows?  Nope.   Had to rile up all America to decry the big bad Russians as evil.

I assume in CT the amount he could have to pay is more than 750K per plaintiff, which is the max in TX. (The 45.1 mil then chopped to 1.5 mil ending some  kind of "appeal" to the  structure)

"At CPAC today, John Schnatter says Papa Johns had the best pizza out there every year when he was in charge, because he instilled "conservative values" of "truth and God.""

Jealous? Papa Johns is a GIANT in USA pizza business.
Are you saying his business model was wrong?

O's, White Sox, Phils win again.  Red Sox show some hope?

(Baltimore 2 back of Tampa, 1.5 back of Seattle)
