The 27 year-old Syrian refugee who committed a suicide attack in Ansbach, Germany, was due to be deported.
German interior ministry spokeman announced at a press conference: Syrians cannot at the moment be deported to Syria, but that doesnt mean that Syrians overall cannot be deported. ???? Germany is screwed up Posted by: Nevergiveup at July 25, 2016 08:02 AM (zp+j1) 14

I assume there will be transgeneder bathrooms. Do you have to register your gender or do you just pick and choose according to how you feelat the moment? And what about gender counselors to help you decide if you are gender confused?

Ah, the logic of Lefties! From the WSJ article on the Philly "Lock Her Up" protest:
Javier Ruiz, 20, listed the 2012 Benghazi terrorist attacks, her use of personal email email and her refusal to unconditionally condemn hydraulic fracturing as reasons she should be imprisoned. Fracking is as bad as Benghazi and the email server? OK, buddy. Posted by: Lizzy at July 25, 2016 08:06 AM (NOIQH) 24

It rewrote some fictional history and decided on a darker feel. Plus like Ace said a few days ago, Amy Allen's Lois Lane is a doofus. Tip: don't waste your time with the theatrical release of Batman v Superman. Watch the extended version. Yes, it's a 3+ hour movie, but the added scenes give you context so you have a better idea of what the hell is going on in the movie, especially the first part. I hated the theatrical release but I rather liked the extended version. Posted by: VA GOP Sucks at July 25, 2016 08:10 AM (eytER) 31

I remember a segment where ole Deb was on a network interview and denied she said something about Israel in 2012; the host played the audio tape of her saying it, she then STILL denied saying it. Now that takes chutzpah. In my nic is a Politico write-up of the incident, but I couldn't find the interview itself. Posted by: GnuBreed at July 25, 2016 08:12 AM (gyKtp) 33

like Ace said a few days ago, Amy Allen's Lois Lane is a doofus. Posted by: VA GOP Sucks at July 25, 2016 08:10 AM (eytER) I didn't think it was "a darker feel". The first half story line pretty much followed the original golden age comic plots. The "Phantom Zone" stuff was different though and no Lex Luther. My main criticism of the movie was that the fight scene was simply too long. Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at July 25, 2016 08:16 AM (mpXpK) 43

I got to listen to Lanny Davis spin this thing. He first started out by saying it was appropriate for DWS to resign because of the questionable and indefensible things she did. He then got pressed on why it was OK for the Clinton campaign to hire her. He said he defied anyone to show him one quote from one email where DWS acted improperly. He's kind of a scumbag.

Hello, Horde.
I am planning on sitting on my ass in a lounge chair on the Green Bay beach for the next 4 days or so (if it's not too hot to sit outside) reading Wodehouse, nursing my knee, eating grilled hamburgers and brats and sweet corn, and trying to ignore the outside world as much as possible. (Although I might have to turn on the DNC for a few minutes at a time, just to see if the Berniebots are causing trouble for Cankles.) I have to wonder what is going on inside Bernie's head. I never thought he really wanted or expected to win - he would have gone after Scankles much harder than he did - (hey, Bern, still sick of hearing about her emails?) and he was more than willing to concede and embrace the old scrunt. But his followers are not willing to cave as easily as he did. Posted by: Donna&&&&&V (a white) (whitely brandishing ampersands and &&& so there) at July 25, 2016 08:39 AM (P8951) Posted by: J.J.

Actually, the comics covered that numerous times over the years. In the early era, the Kents simply expired of natural causes, being already middle-aged when they adopted the alien baby they found. If you look back at the Superboy stories of the 50s, the Kents always looked more like Clark's grandparents or people who'd had a surprise pregnancy long after the prospect had been given up. I always suspected that the advanced ages of Peter Parker's Aunt May and Uncle Ben came of the same source: a holdover from the Great Influenza epidemic continuing to affect how writers thought. Because the Great Flu killed so many adults in their prime, there was a lot of orphaned children being raised by their grandparents in the 20s and 30s, which influenced the thinking of creators like Seigal and Schuster and Stan Lee, who was not much younger. Generally, when depicting Superman's upbringing, his adoptive parents expire one after the other, and it is at that point he sets out for Metropolis to start his two careers. It wasn't until the 1986 John Byrne reboot that the Kents were not killed off as Clark became Superman. Byrne made a the Kents a bit younger and more believably Clark's biological parents in the eyes of Smallville residents. (The premise was that a very long and severe winter had the Kents snowed in at the farm during most of the pregnancy and Clark was born there. This gave a better cover story story for Clark's existence.) Byrne also kept the Kents alive and acting as Clark's primary confidantes during the early days of his Superman career. Jonathan was killed off during the 'Death of Superman' arc, IIRC. Byrne felt it was important Clark had somebody he could talk to openly about his problems besides other superhero types.

MSNBC showed a clip of #NeverHillary Bernie supporters discussing what's next. It was just like discussions here with Cruz supporters who are #NeverTrump.
One guy, "If Trump gets elected, it's not our fault!" One gal, "I know so many people who will now vote for Trump instead of Hillary." Another gal, "I know some of my friends will vote Trump, but they're not admitting t." Another guy, "If you vote for Jill Stein Trump will be elected." and then much more on how could you enable a guy who wants to round up immigrants and refugees blah bah blah. Interesting times!!

Last time I was in Philly I stayed in the historic Bache House, where Ben Franklin lived for several months while his own place was being renovated. In fact he's supposed to have slept in the very room I had. Tiny little room with a sloped ceiling right over your head, so if you sit up in your sleep, you bump your noggin'.
You're not allowed to open the windows either. Like everything else, they're historic. Very nice reading room filled with old books, and you can play chess on an 18th century Redcoats vs. Patriots set. They had the best coffee I've ever tasted, and an awesome breakfast spread on weekends. Cool digs. Posted by: WhatWhatWhat? at July 25, 2016 09:04 AM (s/EUv) 200

She doesn't really believe that. I don't think she even has to dig all that deep down to know that she's getting privileged treatment. Remember back in the day Rush Limbaugh would say the first question out of Bill Clinton's mouth was "how can we fool them today?" We're still seeing that in action. Hillary is just trying to play persecuted woman so her acolytes like Lanny Davis have ammunition for the talking heads shows. She doesn't believe it. She wants her base to believe it.

Guns did it.

this design for USS Discovery dates all the way back to 1977 and when Roddenberry had gotten the go-ahead for a new TV series. Ralph McQuarrie and Ken Adams both did concepts.

First is that the MSM is pushing it, which makes me look at it through raised Spock eyebrows; And; Who would one suspect that Putin would actually want as president, Trump, or someone who he reportedly has a lot of information that he gained by hacking her illegal server and which he could probably use quite easily to get shit he wants from her. If this "sub-plot" is real, imo, it is to suggest support for Trump in order to cause people to question a Trump presidency and drive voters to Clinton. Of course THAT would be absurd.

That is pure crap. The only reason the hackers are publishing DNC material is because they were too cocky and stupid to secure their servers.

No way I'm shelling out extra bucks for "CBS all access" to watch it. I'll just wait until it gets canceled & winds up on netflix.
Says CBS "The drama, set to bow in 2017, will introduce new characters seeking imaginative new worlds and new civilizations, while exploring the dramatic contemporary themes that have been a signature of the franchise since its inception in 1966." I realize Star Trek has always been "progressive," but given the left's inability to handle subtlety and nuance in conveying their agenda, I can only expect the new Trek to be a constant hammering of transgender bathrooms, gun control, global warming, and whatever else is on the agenda. Remember the horrible Next Generation "Global Warming" episode that ended with Star Fleet limiting ships to warp 5 to save the environment? I expect that will look subtle in comparison. Between this and Patton Oswalt and the Daily Show Chief Propagandist writing the new MSJW3K, I feel like everything I once loved is turning into left-wing propaganda.

Trump wants to weaken NATO. He has also praised Putin repeatedly, drawn moral equivalency between America and Russia, and worked to weaken support for Ukraine in the GOP platform. Putin also has a proven track record of supporting isolationist nationalist parties across Europe. The NF in France is a key example. This is not conjecture, it is proven and admitted. It is not a conspiracy theory to say it is pretty clear which candidate Putin prefers. As to having blackmail info - much of Trump's business now is with Russian oligarchs since US banks don't trust him. It is likely Putin has as much leverage over Trump as he does over Clinton.

From April 2016 DOJ Press Release: Wells Fargo Bank Admits That It Certified that Loans Were Eligible for FHA Mortgage Insurance When They Were Not, and That It Did Not Disclose Thousands of Faulty Mortgage Loans to HUD. In June 2013 Wells Fargo settled a lawsuit alleging that it neglected the maintenance and marketing of foreclosed homes in black and Latino areas by agreeing to spend at least $42 million to promote home ownership and neighborhood stabilization. In October 2013 Freddie Mac announced that Wells Fargo would pay $869 million to repurchase home loans the bank had sold to the mortgage agency that did not conform to the latter's guidelines.

They didn't really have a choice on that. The TOS characters, including the ship, are all bound within the films, leaving the TV stuff in a separate but equal periphery. My big annoyance is they dug up those awful old Ralph McQuarrie concept sketches that repulsed me the first time I saw them twenty years ago. Posted by: Epobirs at July 25, 2016 10:03 AM (IdCqF) 355
Caitlyn spoke at the RNC, the convention that gave a standing O to "social issues are a distraction," delivered by a gay guy.

If that is not a clue to Trump's intent I don't know what is .
Posted by: persona at July 25, 2016 09:54 AM (c6/9Q) You are doing it wrong. Look, spinning conspiracy theories is serious work, you can't just latch onto a couple of random facts that look right and bind them together with an idea you pull out of your ass. You need that odd twist, the new way of looking at the facts that convince everyone else that "OMG, I never saw that, this Person person is freaking brilliant, I should hang on every thought". Unless you have that, and it takes work and practice, you just come off sounding like a shallow 20 year old who just found out about persuasion, or someone who finally got on their meds, but can't break the thinking habits.

Epobirs, so because of Chris Pine movie Trek the TV writers were 'forced' to create a new ship. And dare I ask is this new series in the Pine universe? Well then that explains so much ...
Cavil remember the anti-matter is out in those giant pontoons because of fear of explosion... which almost made sense until one realizes that much anti-matter will destroy a ship no matter how far away they are from the hull. *thud* Posted by: Anna Puma at July 25, 2016 10:09 AM (xNWlE) 362

I think they said it's the "Prime" timeline (aka original), not the "Kelvin" (aka Abrams Trek). And no, that's where the warp coils were, not the antimatter fuel. Posted by: Brother Cavil, down with Eph 6:12-13 at July 25, 2016 10:14 AM (9krrF) 363

Posted by: Mallamutt, RINO President for Life at July 25, 2016 08:35 AM (6LFSJ) He opened a discussion yesterday, with him and Donna Brazille and some pundits, by showing a shot of Hillary! from 2008, and the look of adoration and affection on his face was revolting. "News" person, indeed. Posted by: m at July 25, 2016 10:17 AM (/7Lfc) 364
Cavil I think we might be talking past each other. Me remembering Lou Zochi and his stories about Starfleet Battles and what you are talking about.

does anyone know when Presdent Obama will arrive in Philiadelphia and when he will speak? We don't want to miss a minute of what our Black Presdent has to say. We also hope he makes a announcement that Bush will be arrested for his crimes and lies !!!!!!

So, the good guys can now be portrayed as bad guys. Yay? Posted by: naturalfake at July 25, 2016 11:28 AM (HGtd0) 370
I hope folks realize that this schedule is a hoax / parody. Not real. It is funny though. And totally believable.

What? No scheduled pogrom against rich people? No breakout sessions on how to torture rich people in ways that would horrify Lavrenty Beria?
