Eric Trump must answer the NY AG's questions by October 7th about property valuation, according to a NY judge.

I am sure he will appeal it. I doubt he will win.

But I wonder if he will plead the 5th to everything but his name, DoB, and residence. He has already indicated something of the sort.

Kentucky...

All those months and it turns out Breonna Taylor caused her own death.

Nothing changes.

Black person isn’t safe FROM THE POLICE in their own damn bed.

Actually they now know the bullet that killed Ms Taylor was not from the gun of the guy they want strung up

Damn investigation messed up the whole story

One of the folks on Trump's list is a member of the group that inspired Handmaid's Tale.
Regarding Josh linking to the Newsweek story via The Daily Kos 







CORRECTION
This article's headline originally stated that People of Praise inspired 'The Handmaid's Tale'. The book's author, Margaret Atwood, has never specifically mentioned the group as being the inspiration for her work. A New Yorker profile of the author from 2017 mentions a newspaper clipping as part of her research for the book of a different charismatic Catholic group, People of Hope.
Newsweek regrets the error.”

 Yep.  People of Praise does share similarities in its doctrines to the People of Hope, and both are Charismatics.   Either community excludes women from the highest leadership positions and teaches that men are the spiritual leaders of their families.  So... tomayto,  tomahto.   

Not quite Gilead,  but not really what RBG would see passing her torch to.

Daniel Cameron stepped up today and laid out the facts he found in the Breonna Taylor case in Kentucky.
As the state’s attorney general
 AND
the special prosecutor Cameron told us

https://www.cnn.com/videos/justice/2020/09/23/kentucky-attorney-general-daniel-cameron-breonna-taylor-officers-charges-sot-nr-vpx.cnn

Cameron added that the outcome didn’t match the narrative of the last 6 months but pointed out that the system has to operate on facts, evidence and the law, not “emotion or outrage.”
He also confirmed another fact that had been misreported:
The police did knock and announce themselves, and they had a civilian witness to corroborate it.

US riot cities should invest in water cannons. They're very effective...set the temp to 'super- chill' and watch the mood of the protesters/rioters dampen.
There's something about being hosed along the streets and into gutters they don't like.

Maybe that cash should be invested in the citizenry...

When, and only when, they've stop rioting and destroying the places....it's a good idea.

Ever wonder why people are protesting?

Not anymore...it's all been explained in this forum and elsewhere.

If you knew you wouldn’t be salivating over water cannons.

That answer doesn’t even rise to a LOL! it is so juvenile.
But at least the dems got another chance to don the HandMaiden costumes they bought for the Kavanaugh Cavalcade of lies.

Cops still lie.

Red is going to start a side hustle selling door frame ieds in Kentucky. They’ll sell like hot cakes.

Robert Taylor is a deep deep font of information on the criminal pathologies that reside in the White House, that your and Red’s vote for the Biden Harris ticket will help expunge.

It doesn’t matter her death is immaterial in this case, you know? The only cop facing any repercussion is the guy whose rounds went into the next apartment.

This shit stinks and you’re too racist to recognize. In fact you’re celebratinng the fact no one is accountable for her murder.
