    FBI Raid of the Traitor's Country Club!

    heron replied to SummerGarden's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    OK, so now we know at least the outlines of the seized materials and some of the probable cause for the warrant. Well, looks like WaPo reporting was at least somewhat accurate. So, did the...

    1099 Contract

    heron replied to Tallies816's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Dig out your own documentation of hours actually worked, put it together with the documentation submitted by HR and your contract. Take it all to an attorney. Wage theft is common in healthcare...

    FBI Raid of the Traitor's Country Club!

    heron replied to SummerGarden's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    To be fair, let’s include a major national news organization starting what I believe is a pretty irresponsible rumor about nuclear weapons. Meanwhile, from where I sit, the contrast in remarks...

    FBI Raid of the Traitor's Country Club!

    heron replied to SummerGarden's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Outside of this thread, which democrats are commenting on the search? I don’t follow party politics, but so far I haven’t seen much out of them. So, I don’t know about democrats, but the...

    No … my notion of how to shift away from fossil fuels is, among other things, to ban private automobiles. Nevah happen, but a girl can dream … My heart isn’t bleeding … the fact is, the...

    So, maybe they should make better EVs? Yes, I know that you didn’t say anything about shifting to renewable energy. My point is that in the 50 years I’ve been following this debate, the first...

    So, your notion of how to shift away from fossil fuels is that it needs to be both easy and cheap, with little to no adverse effect on consumers? Sorry, that ship sailed decades

    It’s way too early in the legal process for the DOJ to release anything except to acknowkedge that a warrant was served and investigation is ongoing. They already made it pretty clear that Trump is...

    Not sure about emt, but I did. Pretty predictable. Personally, I think it’s way premature to pontificate - we don’t even know what is in the warrant or what was seized. So … why hasn’t Trump...

    So … I believe that a copy of the warrant was given to Trump’s people. If it’s so egregious, why hasn’t he released it? Why hasn’t he released the inventory of what was seized? What’s

    A hit dog howls. Threats in one hand, a whole deck of victim cards in the other. Roy Cohn would be proud. Trump’s big mistake, which may yet prove fatal, is to assume that everyone is as...
