Taking from foreign entities or paying money to foreign entities (like Hillary paying Steele to help her campaign) is illegal. "Collusion", per se, isn't illegal, so Mueller was appointed Special Council to investigate something that is not illegal, which is itself illegal, so he'll be kicked to the curb by the first counter-suit to reach a judge who actually understands the law. I'm not sure how foreigners shitposting about an election of interest to the entire world is illegal. Moreover, the Russian interference doesn't seem to have been aimed to help one side over the other, just to rile up discontent in general.
You don't get a do-over after committing fraud. You get prosecuted. At least, you do in a non-banana republic. It doesn't matter what they could have done; it matters what they did do. Would it have been legally possible for you to earn the $10,000 you just robbed from the bank?
McCabe testified under oath before Congress that the dossier was so critical to obtaining the FISA warrant that they wouldn't have pursued the warrant without it. One thing to note is that the Democrats, especially the ones on the Intel Committee, aren't saying that the claims in the memo are false. Presumably, it's because they know that every claim in the memo has a paper trail a mile long. One thing a bureaucracy does well is keep detailed records.
Um, the FBI and DOJ are not "independent". They derive their authority to operate from the President. The US has a system of checks and balances, and the check on government agencies is the President. The check on the President is Congress and the courts. The security apparatus pursuing its own illegal agenda is a component of a banana republic.
There is every reason to believe that human consciousness is just a glorified version of the above program. Odd that the list of scientists didn't include a field that could actually tell them what's going on, namely Computer Science. I don't know what they mean by "credible philosophers" and physics has nothing to offer. Neurons operate at the macro level and filter out quantum effects. What dummies.
With only a pure popular vote, there would be no United States: it would have disintegrated a hundred years ago into several independent countries. The purpose of the electoral college is to prevent this from happening by preventing the bulk of the country from feeling powerless against a small number of big cities. Here are the county-level results from the 2016 election. Note the small dots of blue in the ocean of red. Of course, while Hillary claimed her $1.2B "participation trophy" from the popular vote, it's telling that her own party doesn't believe in the "popular vote" for use in their primary elections. Instead, they use a regional points-based system with a even large percentage of the electors coming from party insiders. That's how much they value the popular vote!
There is still no indication that Trump has done anything illegal. The Special Council isn't even investigating something that would be illegal even if it happened (which the two-year colonoscopy with zero leaks of results demonstrates didn't happen). But the coming week should certainly be interesting for revelations of FBI and DOJ corruption.
It's not "legacy racism", it's a full-standard-deviation lower average IQ that has made green people less educated. IQ is a strong predictor for success and has a strong genetic component that cannot easily be compensated for. OTOH, green people also have a toxic culture that celebrates failure, dependency, and violence; maybe algorithms could do something about that.
Growing in value by 20% per week is totally sustainable. In 52 weeks, each Bitcoin will be worth $260-million and the market cap will be $3-quadrillion.
If we're actually serious about addressing climate change, we will use geo-engineering. The price tag is 1/1000th that of carbon, it will actually work rather than something that will be rejected after wasting tens of trillions of dollars and killing hundreds of millions of people with energy poverty, and it is effective after two years instead of 70 years.
Let's see, 21-million bitcoins in existence times a price of $1-million each = $21-trillion total market cap (plus extra coins mined by that time). Yeah, that sounds plausible!
In the case of a tattoo, it wouldn't be the patient or the doctor who was signing it, it would be the tattoo artist forging their signature. Would that really be a legal document?

So stupid that he ends up outmaneuvering and utterly crushing every political opponent that goes up against him. Yep, that kind of Stupid.
- Paying foreign nations to cook up a dossier of opposition research.

Black women look a lot like men. No training set is going to overcome this fundamental fact.
This was no accident or mistake by the judge. This was fraud perpetrated against the court.
Don't worry -- the Democrats will be illegally leaking their counter-memo next week. That's just what criminals do.
Clearly, Obama and Hillary didn't discover anything useful, since it would have been leaked before the election if they did.

Also, the Democrat operatives started calling it a nothing-burger immediately after it was released.

Christopher Steele is a foreign national and it's illegal for a campaign to pay a foreign national for opposition research.
I know that I want to pay a $60 service fee every time I tap my Bitcoin card for a corner-store purchase!
So does this:
10 PRINT "I AM CONSCIOUS"
20 GOTO 10

99% of all software patents are obvious solutions to trivial problems that have already been invented. I'd call that a problem.
The Venezuelan government will just fix prices like it has for every other domestic industry and force producers to sell their goods at a loss.

All investment vehicles go up 20% per week forever. Don't you know anything about economics?!
