People are being paid to riot, but that bill is an abomination. All they have to do is enforce the existing laws & deal with the perps.

Not all of them. Some, and I don't care that they are. But organizational & logistics costs are being paid by 'someone'. All perfectly acceptable (not to mention legal) as far as I'm concerned. Simply enforcing existing laws against assault, property damage, etc., should be sufficient. This bill is craven grandstanding at best.
Trump will be lucky to survive the first term...and definitely not a second.
It is of no consequence what others do or do not do...Trump is not 'President material'.
He is an idiot, plain and simple.
An American President SHOULD be required to have an IQ greater than his age.
It'd also be nice if a President was not one-foot-in-the-grave and instead young enough to have to live through the consequences of his stupidity.
Plausible deniability.
Two people meet off the record in a plane on a tarmac and secretly discuss
the tapping of phones.
Does the press want us to believe someone ordered Trumps phones tapped
or does the press want us to believe that his phones were not tapped?
Iben....even Kaspersky doesn't like that link.
The quality of the bullshit on the Internet is the best you'll find anywhere.
As Trump distracts you with Tweets, the GOP seeks to invade your privacy

There is some merit to limiting such suits; their primary purpose in many cases is to serve as very lucrative cash cows for law firms. Devil's always in the details, of course.
The narrative that Russia is the good guy, and the Europe countries the bad guys is not going to be productive in the long run.
Motivated reasoning is the idea that we are motivated to believe whatever confirms our opinions.
“If you’re motivated to believe negative things about Hillary Clinton [or Donald Trump], you’re more likely to trust outrageous stories about her that might not be true,” Waytz says. “Over time, motivated reasoning can lead to a false social consensus.”
They got that part right. Otherwise, it's just laying down another pseudoscientific basis for insulting and dismissing people who come to the 'wrong' conclusions.
In other words you don't agree with the 'science' so it MUST be 'pseudo'.
Kinda proves its own point...;p
Now, Now, Paul... You know what the difference is. And that there's no such thing as 'proof' in 'soft science'. Part of the reason for the phrase.
