The brutal arrest is only part one. The detention phase is often worse, approaching torture, and often involves children being separated from parents and the parent(s) being deported to a random, distant country - while US for-profit prisons are also making $$$. How low we have fallen as a country.

Trump started a stupid & illegal war in Iran that has driven up diesel prices. Now he wants to bankroll Putin's illegal war against Ukraine by buying diesel from him.   One strategic disaster after the next. www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

Trump lifts sanctions on Russian diesel, suggests US may buy amid surging fuel prices
The move comes weeks ahead of the midterm elections.

The Pentagon says it plans to livestream an execution. Pete Hegseth said the public will be able to watch the firing-squad execution of Nidal Hasan, convicted of the 2009 Fort Hood mass shooting, scheduled for December 3. Turning a government execution into a livestream should alarm everyone.

So I’m assuming that ketamine is a controlled substance. But I haven’t heard anything about anyone getting in trouble for pushing the ketamine on the young woman. Consequences matter. Also, this is one of the most horrific gang rape scenarios I’ve ever heard of. From a bunch of college boys.

Perhaps something less extreme, like chemical castration.

They should actually be service organizations, who volunteer to do good work in the community, and set a good example, rather than an extreme party mode. If you want to party, do it in someone’s home. If you want to develop a good reputation and experience, do the good service.

I’ve thought this exact same thing. It’s as if Putin and his cronies were sitting around a table saying, “Who are the absolute worst possible picks to fill these cabinet positions?” And because they have a copy of the Epstein files, the president complied every time.

I've played poker at dozens of casinos in my life, from the fanciest palaces in Las Vegas to crappy riverboats in the Midwest, and I can say that the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City was -- by a fucking mile -- the dirtiest, dingiest, cruddiest casino I have ever experienced in my life.
