Wow.
Hickenlooper and Delaney tell Democrat’s the truth. And get booed.
LOL.
What a screwed up party.

[Yankguy1]

Yep. The second most screwed-up party in the U.S.

LOL.

I don’t know what Delaney said but what I caught of Hickenlooper at CADem19 he deserved the booing.
He seems to genuinely believe that Republicans like Mitch McConnell are like Republicans in Colorado state government, and subject to the same persuasion by a sufficiently bipartisan Democratic executive. What the fuck? He’s been smoking too much of that CO weed!

COGOP are just fucking outnumbered and McConnell couldn’t give two shits about anything but consolidating Republican power.

An Australian model facing a potential 21-year jail sentence in the US for allegedly assaulting a flight attendant on a plane to Los Angeles has asked a Californian judge to toss her conviction.

Adau Akui Atem Mornyang will be sentenced in the US District Court in Los Angeles on June 24.

Ms Mornyang has enjoyed significant modelling success since moving to Australia as a refugee at the age of 10, including serving as a global campaign face for Sephora in 2016, a Miss World Victorian finalist in 2017 and Miss World Australia finalist and recently walked the runway at New York Fashion Week.

She said the incident had ruined her career.

Ms Mornyang’s US legal team told Judge Cormac Carney a jury convicted the model at a trial in March after prosecutors relied on “an inflammatory audiotape that purported to depict Ms Mornyang screaming racial slurs and obscenities”.

South Sudanese-born Ms Mornyang was convicted of a felony charge of interference with a United Airlines flight crew member and misdemeanour assault.
Melbourne-based Mornyang, 24, faces a statutory maximum sentence of 21 years in US federal prison.
Prosecutors said Ms Mornyang, during the January 21 Melbourne to LA flight, ordered “several alcoholic beverages”.

Earlier this year Ms Mornyang denied she had attacked anyone and described the episode as “an ordeal” that she did not remember after having mixed prescription drugs with alcohol to sleep during the flight.

“I was not intoxicated because I had only two glasses of wine during dinner service, requested a seat move and slept for what I believe to have been eight hours, just to wake up five hours and five minutes before landing to an arrest.

“Did I take my Prozac and oxycodone before the flight? Yes I did. But I was not drunk before boarding.”

Even though passengers on that flight and other flight attendants said there was never a slap, the evidence was ignored and they decided to believe (the flight attendant),” she said in a text message.

#####

Alcohol should be banned on planes.....as cockpit cabin doors should always be locked.

Hardly a terrorist.
Maybe she heard the alleged racial slurs and obscenities in Hollywood movies.

21 years in US federal prison for that?...allegedly screaming a few racial slurs and obscenities, and a hugely doubtful misdemeanour assault.
Now there's an absolute outrage.

Not 21 months in prison...but 21 YEARS!

Oh look, another Aussie being an asshole. Fuck them all.

More like stay away from America if this is what can happen to you!

Gee, you take some prescription medication, have a couple of drinks with dinner, flail your arms about and scream a few racial slurs and obscenities ...and you get locked away in federal prison for 21 years.
Not even "dumb, drunk, racist and backward" bambuland has laws like that.

Kushner is dumber than a sack of hammers.

A former staffer at Kushner’s NYC publication, The Observer, described her former boss thusly: “We’re talking about a guy who isn’t particularly bright or hard-working, doesn’t actually know anything, has bought his way into everything ever (with money he got from his criminal father), who is deeply insecure and obsessed with fame (you don’t buy the NYO, marry Ivanka Trump, or constantly talk about the phone calls you get from celebrities if it’s in your nature to ‘shun the spotlight’), and who is basically a shithead.”

Told y’all about this guy a year and a half ago...

Did she sign her name to it?

I just had to read #1 to know this piece was going to be ridiculous.

Yes - "we" refers to Jared and his wife.
Yes, the President wanted them involved.

Kushner is the shithead son of a rich asshole.

I get it - you don't like folks with money.

Be careful - some antisemitism may be peeking through

Her name is Harleen Kahlon.

I know plenty of folks with all kinds of money from old money to nouveau riche. I don’t like dickheads. Jared is an asshole and he is surrounded by Jews who are white supremacists like Stephen Miller and Trump’s lawyer, Jay Sekulow who is a very big wig in “Jews for Jesus.”

So before you throw that anti Semitic bullshit around you ought do your homework.
