    You want anthracite coal. Not that cheap as bituminous crap.

    Being in Northeast PA, I can set you up.

    It is not clear, though, what would legally justify “treason” charges since the military officers were following the orders of President Joe Biden to withdraw all U.S. forces from Afghanistan.​

    ​

    So this is the way they want to get at Biden?

    No-- this is how they cull all the non-MAGA officers. Or try to. Methinks they might be biting off more than they can chew with this one.

    You funny, NBC News!

    How will a new Trump administration prosecute corruption?

    When the compliance lawyer Alexandra Wrage was invited onto CNBC’s program “Squawk Box” in 2012 to give an anti-corruption argument on the air, she was surprised. “I remember laughing at the time, saying, ‘Well, is there somebody that you found who’s going to give the pro-corruption argument?’”

    Whom they brought on was the president of the Trump Organization, four years before he won the presidency of the country the first time. Donald Trump called the United States’ Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, known as the FCPA, a “horrible law.”

    Passed in 1977, the FCPA made it a crime for companies with a connection to the U.S. to pay — or even offer to pay — bribes to government officials of other countries. The law was the first of its kind in the world, and a landmark. Most countries have followed suit, adopting similar laws, although experts say many are not as aggressive in combating bribery as the U.S. statute.

    “Every other country in the world is doing it. We’re not allowed to do so. It puts us at a huge disadvantage,” Trump said in that 2012 CNBC appearance.

    Trump then hung up, and Wrage, founder of the anti-corruption organization TRACE International, replied to the host.

    “Well, the answer is certainly not encouraging a climate of lawlessness. U.S. companies never benefit from lawlessness.”

    I ran a 5k this morning in that exact area of Columbus, the Short North.

    The Nazi march was around 10 idiots in masks chanting some kind of racial bs. A few got arrested not far from where this video was taken for concealed carry without a permit.

    These super-dark times have the ********ed up side-effect of reminding me of so much random stuff, none of it good, if I am being honest.

    Just now it is this Bertolt Brecht quote from The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui:

    If we could learn to look instead of gawking,
    We'd see the horror in the heart of farce,
    If only we could act instead of talking,
    We wouldn't always end up on our arse.
    This was the thing that nearly had us mastered;
    Don't yet rejoice in his defeat, you men!
    Although the world stood up and stopped the bastard,
    The bitch that bore him is in heat again.

    I'm torn between whether to give you positive rep for a Brecht quote or negative but we haven't got negative now, (a sad loss IMO), so it'll have to be positive.
