As he should be until he hurts or threatens someone. You don’t get to expel or imprison people because you dislike their beliefs. 

 

But that English Department manifesto is hilarious.

Yeah, it's so crazy for them to want to educate:

Quote

Imaginative reasoning is the ability to use the imagination to think hypothetically about the world in all its diversity—the past, present, and future, the local and the global. Such an ability, we believe, enables all of us to engage critically with social and political phenomena because it allows us to re-envision what is possible and to dream up audacious solutions to seemingly insoluble problems, solutions that might at first seem implausible but, once dreamt up—once imagined—suddenly seem possible. These moments of imaginative insight compel us to ask: Why are such solutions deemed impossible or implausible to begin with? Who says so and for what reasons? What prevents us from dreaming of alternatives, of imagining other paths, in the first place?

Oh. the horror of critical thinking.

Have you read mission statements before? They're usually pretty out there.

I just saw this in the Cruz thread:

The thread raises a good question. The government failed at all levels. They knew this kid was a threat but due to incompetence, laziness, and political correctness failed to take action. The blood of the victims is on their hands. 

 

For liberals who reflexively argue that people don’t need guns and should trust law enforcement to protect themselves...how did that work out for those dead kids?

So Obama failed for not expelling for imprisoning the Florida shooting, but the current government shouldn't expel or imprison the UNL student.

 

It's no wonder the right is so easily manipulated. You can't even maintain logical consistency.

you beat me to the punch.  i was jsut typing the same thing and saw your reply before i hit enter.   

[zoogs]

I mean, it's entirely consistent. Obama-era policies tried to push back against letting at-risk young people, especially minorities, fall into the trap of being over-policed and made into criminals. Intentionally or not, the system destroys lives early and sets folks on a path to crime. We know what people, any people, can do if given opportunity (keep falling up, Harvard Fellow Sean Spicer!) and we know what happens when opportunity is removed early and arbitrarily. 

 

The Obama position, the really scary one to some folks, is that this happens too much to minorities, which is obviously true, and we can do something about it.

 

The UNL 23-year old is a white supremacist, right? These are not the people they're worried about.

Holy wow this is bad for Trump. Huge news late on a Sunday night.

Mueller swung a HUGE hammer.

 

 

Quote

WASHINGTON — The grand jury investigating alleged collusion between Russia and Donald Trump's presidential campaign has issued a subpoena seeking all documents involving the president and a host of his closest advisers, according to a copy of the subpoena reviewed by NBC News.

 

According to the subpoena, which was sent to a witness by special counsel Robert Mueller, investigators want emails, text messages, work papers, telephone logs and other documents going back to Nov. 1, 2015, 4½ months after Trump launched his campaign.

 

The witness shared details of the subpoena on condition of anonymity. The news site Axios reported Sunday that a subpoena was sent to a witness last month.

----
In addition to the president, the subpoena seeks documents that have anything to do with these current and former Trump associates:

 

• Steve Bannon, who left the White House as chief strategist in August.
• Michael Cohen, a personal lawyer for Trump who testified before congressional investigators in October.
• Rick Gates, Trump's former deputy campaign manager, who pleaded guilty last month to conspiracy and lying to the FBI.
• Hope Hicks, who resigned last week as Trump's communications director.
• Corey Lewandowski, Trump's campaign manager until June 2016.
• Paul Manafort, a former Trump campaign manager and Gates' business partner, who pleaded not guilty to money laundering, conspiracy and making false statements last week.
• Carter Page, a former Trump campaign aide.
• Keith Schiller, a former bodyguard for Trump who left as director of Oval Office operations in September.
• Roger Stone, a longtime Republican political operative and Trump campaign adviser who sources have told NBC News is the focus of investigators interested in his contacts with WikiLeaks during the campaign

It continues to make me nervous that the media is reporting on these things. I'd rather it all be secret for as long as possible.

[Danny Bateman]

It sounds like somebody blabbed to Axios, which they typically do. That's kind of their outlet of choice a lot of the time. I'm just curious who was subpoenaed. Someone on Reddit guessed it may have been Don Jr. Who knows.

 

Take this next story with a grain of salt. Steele has his sources, but they should obviously be viewed skeptically unless independently confirmed. However, if this bit that he came up with later turns out to be true - this would be a smoking gun. Truly a gasp-worthy assertion here.

But no Trump's or Kushners?

[TGHusker]

Looks like Russia is taking a play out of the Trump play book - pointing back at the accusers.

Russia accuses the USA of interfering in their next election.

You're probably right. But who knows, more might come out of this than you think. I mean, it definitely wouldn't be the first time that information from an escort/stripper led to something much bigger.

 

This Anastasia Vashukevich situation keeps getting more and more interesting. The possibility of Trump going down (pun intended) because of an escort would be pretty fitting.
