    The US military should also wear shirts that say we didn’t bomb Russia, just in case slapping stickers of the Chinese flag isn’t enough.

    Is there video of this somewhere - I mean he obviously said it considering it's reported by limitless sources but haven't been able to find the video of it.

    Wanted to watch it for entertainment value but coming up with nothing.

    I'd be interested to see a "don't vote" percentage as well - I'm sure I probably know higher amounts than the average since the states I spend time in are foregone conclusions in every presidential election. I'm not sure Wyoming has been blue since the early 60s and obviously California was a given for democrats pretty much since I've been alive.

    Were you not alive for Ronald Reagan? The Dems even held their convention there in 2000 (with an epic companion protest by RATM). California has had as many Republican governors as Democrats since Reagan too.

    There's just been an absolute brain drain in the Republican party, and it was felt especially hard in places with a lot of college-educated whites like Orange County.

    Wasn't alive for the Regan campaigns - was born the year before Bush won the state and that was the last one.

    R vs D governors being equal since Reagan is technically true, of course, but it requires not counting the second stint of Brown, and Arnold was a RINO at the time, let alone current day.

    And Wilson only served one term.

    I know I was correct, so lets not act like California is a One-Party State. Its only a relatively recent development that the California GOP has cratered.

    Arnold is the only GOP governor since Wilson, Arnold didn’t have any place in the GOP at the time, let alone now.

    CA hasn’t had an elected GOP senator since before the fall of the Soviet Union.

    There’s actually a civil section in the RICO act. The plaintiff gets mandatory treble damages (+ costs and fees) if they can prove that the defendant violated the RICO act and caused them damages. Because of the lower burden of proof than the criminal side and the mandatory treble damages, civil RICO suits are very powerful and can be subject to misuse.

    Sooooo, he wants discovery to proceed on these issues? That’s a bold move, Cotton. Also, don’t see how this isn’t time barred by this point.

    much more of a chance the world ends than this stupid case even getting to discovery, but if, by some miracle this makes it to trial, seeing this braindead motherfucker on the stand might make the last 6 years worth it.

    Lol Legal Brains. I interviewed with them out of law school and was offered a job. They were weird. The managing partner, Peter at the time, was suspended from practicing law when I interviewed and had some scripted explanation for it so his daughter was the acting managing partner. They also asked me if I smoked cigarettes. I don't so said as such and they said "Good. We don't hire lawyers that smoke because if you can't take care of your own body how can you take care of your clients."

    They wanted me to work in Bonita Springs but drive to Tampa from there and over to Ft. Lauderdale each week but they were not going to pay mileage for it. They also offered me a salary of $40,000. I politely declined.

    They also said they practice intellectual property and I was interested in it at the time and asked about it. They said one attorney does some of it sometimes but I would have to bring in my own clients if I wanted to do it. Very strong practice.
