And before Annoyed says it, I believe both sides are corruptible. Except Jelgate of course

Corruption is everywhere, we had this huge scandal a few years back when they found out all the construction contracts given to the city of Montreal and Laval were rigged between a handful of entrepreneurs.

They did not EVEN say sorry!

Pfftt... Rank Amateurs

And this is 3 years out of date.

Anyone can be corrupted, and one would be stupid to assume it's only on one side Jel. You are not corruptible because you are the corruption.

Most of them are Wizards of the Wall Street I assume? Auction conjurers, speculation mages, tie sorcerers are hard at work.

Jokes aside, NY isn't special, it just has a bigger concentration of these business folks.

On the plus side, there are some good things that come out of NY.

From a nearby city's school district..

East High School approves new cell phone policy

East High School in Rochester has approved a new ban on cell phones in class for the upcoming school year.

Under the new policy, all cell phones will be taken from students when they enter the building in the morning and returned at the end of the day.

If parents need to get in touch with their child during class time, school officials say they can call the main office.

Other schools in the Rochester City School District are not implementing this policy.

I hope this policy spreads like wildfire across the entire country.

Looks to me like you were talking about Collins, the recently arrested NY congresscritter.

Nope.

It's a French policy, so it just shows that divorced of who puts something forward, you are willing to not only listen, but embrace something that comes from "the other side".

I've said before that I don't care where it comes from, a good idea is a good idea.

Your actions say different

One more for the count, Jelgate is right.
You willingly sold the soul of what was once a party dedicated to human rights and the people for a SCOTUS seat because, as a smart cookie, you KNOW that tilting the SCOTUS right gives right leaning people the last gasp of control over the country in a way you happen to like (and don't give me any "constitution as written" twaddle, the right already has 10 more amendments they want to push through to change it, look it up).
The right wing has won exactly ONE popular vote in the last 8 presidential elections with Bush in 2004 (war sells to both sides obviously), which means the people (who vote at least), don't want your style of governance or law, or interpretations thereof, but the SCOTUS is the last end game run around of the will of the people, not because it was designed to be, but because it has been weaponised by both parties.

If you have never voted democrat in your life, your statement is, quite frankly, a joke.

Your own words say otherwise.

If a Democrat has an idea l like, or that has a platform (and is credible) I will back that idea or candidate.

I just don't happen to see much I like coming from that corner of the yard.

[Chaka-Z0]

Can we talk about the Space Force bill coming up?

Does that mean SG-1 is getting fired?

No you won't. Again, actions speak louder than words

[Annoyed]

I don't think it would pass muster due to a treaty we signed back in the days of the space race, barring the militarization of space.

For example, I agree with the Democrats on net neutrality. In fact, ideally, I go farther than they do.
ALL traffic should be treated equally, no exceptions, no BS.
