How did we get here with this Scam President who couldn't understand holes

How did we get here when one of the Ten Commandments in the Evangelicals Christian Bible I thou Shalt Not Bare false witness, and Donald John Trump could have be proven a fraud from the start in less than a second with just a paper card and a hole Punch?

Is Uranus sometimes as bright as Venus?

Ok, I expect to see some creative parody titles...

Anyway, I was outside this evening and I noticed a really bright light in the sky. Initially I thought it was a helicopter or plane approaching the airport some distance away. But it didn’t move. Pulled out Night Sky and saw that it is, apparently Uranus. It looks brighter than I think it should, brighter than Venus has ever appeared to my eye.

So my stupid novice question is: is this normal? Here is a pic of the Night Sky screen facing that way and a pic of the light.



California introduces mandatory voting bill

https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics...t-15031714.php

Assemblyman Marc Levine, D-San Rafael, introduced a bill Tuesday that would require all registered voters to return their ballots, either by mail or to a vote center, even if left blank. The measure, AB2070, would leave it up to the secretary of state, California’s chief elections official, to decide how to enforce the law.


Minister in Scottish government resigns over texts to 16 year old

Scottish minister has been "caught" messaging a 16 year old. The implication is heavily that it was not "innocent" messaging, one of the messages called the 16 year old "cute" and that seems to be the most salacious one as that is what the newspaper that broke the story has led with.

He has now resigned.

Should he have resigned? He has never met the 16 year old, all the mentions of meeting are in public places and even at public events, and nothing that would seem to be clandestine. Is this Is this a case of "no smoke without a fire" and the Minister just being a tad stupid rather than anything malicious?

Margaret Brennan

Margaret Brennan is the host of Face The Nation. She is brilliant. She is gifted at striking down poor arguments without bias. She has humiliated many republicans recently but not enough people seem to be watching.

I'd be interested in reading others opinions about her show.


The cancer miracle isn't a cure...

Its not a coincidence that air and water pollution alone aren't enough to cause the aforementioned cancers, but yet some of us continue to expose ourselves to the excesses. This article makes perfect sense, in that while some cancers can be attributed to bad luck, others may be totally avoidable. Examples: both my mother and grandmother succumbed to cancer. My mom from breast cancer, and my grandmother intestinal. Both were taken to the excesses. Most notably, alcohol, tobacco (grandma didn't smoke), and prescription drugs. And well, their diets were questionable as well.

DA Says Couple Accused of Drugging and Raping Up to 1,000 Women Did No Such Thing—Ex-

I'm not sure if this belongs in 'Trials and Errors' or here but this is scary (either way.)



Quote:

A California prosecutor is dropping all charges against a doctor and his girlfriend, alleging that his predecessor “manufactured” allegations that the couple drugged and sexually assaulted up to 1,000 women.
