I love Grippy Sock Couture though.

Pretty much this. The early years of the Nazis also looked like heavily armed thugs destroying the apparatus of state and assaulting “wrong” people in the streets, mostly communists and other leftists.

I was about to say, just from the few BD toys I can identify, that’s an easy $4-600 depending on size.

You also want to be about to keep track of the victims in case you need to put a hit on them or threaten them into silence.

That’s my point. He is enough of a fan to know the connotation. He knows what the name implies, and company names are a deliberate choice that imply things about that company.

They’re already gearing up for a ground invasion of Mexico. I’m personally super excited for Mexican-American War 2. /s

Never mind Cuomo’s weird threat of “elect me or Trump will invade the city”, like he was already gonna do that either way my dude.

I was about to say, they’re only doing it this way because you can’t just have them killed openly.

He’s the law and order president.

The law is whatever he orders it to be.

Cuomo has the support of the guy who, less than a full day after the attack, was in an interview gloating about how he was so happy that he had the tallest building in Manhattan now.

Call it what it is: genocide. “Ethnic cleansing” was a weasel word definition to let the Clinton admin wriggle out of intervening in Rwanda.

This exactly. And moreover, with SCOTUS saying it’s totally OK to detain people in foreign prisons before their case (which is done online to further minimize the ability of the defense to actually do their job), they can just ship you to the country that has a hit on you, and weird, you wind up dead or beaten halfway there so you look nice and dirty for a judge who’s already likely decided to throw you wherever (but now you look like “one of them” so there’s an extra layer of justification).

Sabotaging from within is a romantic notion, but one that often doesn’t work out.

Especially when, even if you’re not found guilty of actually breaking the law, you can still be brought to your medical board over these laws. They’re MEANT to be vague, meant to be open to a million interpretations, just like old poll tests, just like Jim Crow laws, just like a hundred other things.

However, there’s no faith like the zealotry of the adult convert.

One use I’m honestly fine with on the whole. Fleecing your company is always morally correct.

He’s a narcissist. Letting go of ANY shred of power is unimaginable, because he deserves EVERYTHING. Any scrap of power he has relinquished has been at legal gunpoint.

Not to mention expanding the bunker at the WH. Dude knows he’s absolutely going to try to stay President no matter what happens. Expect full Franco.

…Because the metals are likely melted down for scrap value and the jewels are probably popped out and sold to gray-market connections. Unless you happen to run into a jeweler who REALLY KNOWS THEIR SHIT, there’s really not a good way to trace a gem back to the piece it came from unless that jewel is incredibly identifiable, not worked further after its theft, and of a known provenance.

It’s not “oh there’s a shadowy dude who ordered them to be stolen away so they could be cashed in”, it’s because jewelry theft is a highly practiced art and anyone smart enough to put a heist together like this and simply vanish is also smart enough to make sure the evidence is gone within days. Puts real reasonable doubt into a jury or judge when your prosecutor has to say “well, we don’t HAVE THE JEWELRY, and we can’t GET IT BACK, but I swear this is the dude”.

It’s like having your car stolen and chopped.

Hate also just ages a person. Stress makes you age seriously fast.
