This whole Epstein thing is a diversion from Trump and his cronies literally stealing the US from its citizens. Of course Trump was in Epstein's circle of friends and we know he is a rapist. Don't need any more information - there is plenty already out there that Americans are blithely ignoring. I would be willing to bet that many of the currently aggrieved people, who helped elect Trump even with all the previously exposed information, will, if they get the Epstein file, do the exact same with the new information and give Trump an pass. Anybody who could vote for him after "grab them by the P****" and the rape defamation verdict, will give him a pass for anything, no matter how much they might be pretending to protest right now.

I had friends 40 years ago in their early 20s that were adamant that they never wanted kids. Some of them stayed that way and are going into retirement childless and most of them are happy with their decision. A few aren't but can't do anything about it. The others discovered, that with with right person, they did want kids and are just as happy. Hard to say which you will be. I know a few young women banking eggs in case they change their mind 10+ years from now and want to have biological children. Can you bank sperm to hedge your bet?

Everyone slows down to watch the car wreck.

Just a guess but maybe if they aren't government backed scholarships, Ireland has no way of verifying them. What happens if Ireland helps the students get to Ireland and it turns out there isn't any real money? Now Ireland has to deport the students, which they won't be able to, so they will then have to cover the full amount of the bogus scholarships to pay for the students who otherwise can't afford to be there.

I'm guessing you either aren't American or you aren't and Evangelical Christian.

That is what the Billionaire's in US are aiming for. That is why they are dismantling all the government systems so that those tax monies are directly funnelled to them for no real services rendered.

Every day I am so glad that 8 years ago I decided not to buy a Tesla.

She probably thought it was toss up to be murdered immediately and quickly or suffer a slow death by daily anti-women injustices. She was dead anyway for simply having a brain as well as a vagina.

Trump's wife is an immigrant. Trump's parents were immigrants. Many people who are immigrants don't like immigrants because immigrant is code for "someone I don't like for x reason".

As non-American, the reason I think that Democrats didn't release the list was that not only were some Democrats and their donors on it, they knew that they would be crucified by Republicans and Americans for it. The also knew that at the same time all the Republicans and their donors on the list would be let off because laws, morality, ethics are only ever to be used to oppress the poor and non-whites or to combat Democratic politicians. Do you think Trump would ever have made it to President as a Democrat? There is a reason he switched to become a Republican.

Personally, as a Canadian, I'd rather never have anything to do with, or buy anything from, the US again. Yes it will hurt in the short term however I think Canada's best future involves acting as if the US only exists as a threat - Russia, North Korea & Iran all rolled into one.

And now everyone knows how deep they have to bury their facilities so US bombs can't get them. The cycle continues.
