    NY Times 'Never Trumper' Stephens Admits Misunderstanding & Mislabeling DJT

    I wish the Trump the best in taking this country where it should go. I want him to succeed in that because the whole country would benefit from it. But given some of his statements of what he intends to do and the nominations for cabinent and other positions I'm not very hopeful that's what...

    Another Bad Opinion by the Supreme Court - Kick the can down the road

    Yes. But my point was that the Supreme Court was making a workload choice, not anything to do with the merits of the case. It can only hear about 1% of the cases in which its review is sought and has to priortize which ones to take. This case would essentially have to be among the 50 or so most...

    'Missing' GOP Congresswoman in Senior Facility

    So do I. The Constitution would likely have to be amended, just as it had to be done to impose term limits for president. It wouldn't be easy, but if the public gets fed up enough there may be the push needed to do it. This is one issue that is not rooted in one particular party.

    'Missing' GOP Congresswoman in Senior Facility

    We seriously need to get octogenarians out of Congress. Even if they don't suffer from dementia, they are very much out of touch with modern American society both due to their age and because they've spent so long in Washington that they have no experience of what it's like for most of us to...

    Can the government take your property just to hand it over to your business competitor?

    I do too. Unfortunately at the federal level the Congresses and the presidents we've had so far this century have not done a whole lot of anything aside from passing budgets, naming post offices and renaming military bases, and approving presidential appointees for top agency posts and approving...

    Another Bad Opinion by the Supreme Court - Kick the can down the road

    You are misinterpreting the action of the Supreme Court. The court made no decision (as that term is used in the courts). It instead denied a petition for a writ of certiorari (which lawyers often abbreivate as denying or granting cert). The petition asks the Supreme Court to agree to hear the...

    Can the government take your property just to hand it over to your business competitor?

    We may indeed agree on a lot when it comes to issues. The main difference between us right now is that I can't stand Trump and you seem to wholeheartedly embrace him. But that's a difference in views about a political figure, not issues.

    If a person dies and owe money on credit card, what happens?

    The credit card lender, like all other creditors, will file a proof of claim (or whatever it is called in the state conducting the probate) outlining its claim to estate assets. All the valid debts of the deceased must be paid before estate beneficiaries get anything. The credit card company...

    Can the government take your property just to hand it over to your business competitor?

    For those unaware, the power of eminent domain, a holdover of the British Crown's power to take property as desired by the sovereign, was limited in the Constitution by imposing two requirements that the King of England would not have to meet: (1) the taking of the land had to be for public use...

    Nima Momeni Found Guilty in Death of Cash App Founder Bob Lee

    All I can say is that country has far too many people ready to go Rambo and attack other people over mostly small stuff. His anger wasn't focused on the right person. While it would still be a crime I can better understand him attacking the guy who actually harmed his sister.

    Stephanopoulos/ABC apologize to Trump, ordered to pay $15 mill 2 settle defamation suit

    I understand that. Yours is a political reaction though, not a legal or business one. The fault here was nothing that Trump did. ABC's employee Stephanopoulos is the one at fault for not checking his facts before making those statements to a million or more viewers. Substitute some other...

    Stephanopoulos/ABC apologize to Trump, ordered to pay $15 mill 2 settle defamation suit

    I would have likely have told ABC to settle it if I was representing it, though I would try to get the amount paid down as much as I could. It's not an issue of sucking up to Trump. It all comes down to the fact that litigating this may well have cost ABC much more than the $15 million and this...

    Check out this clever GIF that turns Donald Duck's face upside to become Donald Trump. No editing of the image was necessary, just rotating it. https://tenor.com/view/donald-duck-trump-donald-trump-upside-down-gif-17042553

    Choosing the jurisidiction that likely governs the contract law that applies and/or the jurisdiction where the litigation takes place is preferred as that will get you the best replies. Your contract with AdSense likely includes more than just the TOS info on the website. You need to read both...

    Political Humor and Satire - Guaranteed to Offend Somebody

    The picture shows up in the thread as essentially a thumbnail size picture. Clicking on it brings up an error, but I can open it in a new tab. The problem is that it's still thumbnail size and when I drop it into an image program to enlarge it the pixel count is so low that it comes out showing...

    In an even older precedent, this guy has been going pantless for 90 years. But he's never run for office. https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTCHutnjB_f2jbluyw3cyEoVfk7tWooF9pWyg&s

    The New Yorker link worked great! I see a scandal brewing already for candidate Godzilla. He's wearing a coat and tie but apparently no pants. Just what kind of deviant lizard do we have here?

    Stephanopoulos/ABC apologize to Trump, ordered to pay $15 mill 2 settle defamation suit

    I'm not surprised. Statistics show around 95% of federal civil cases end in settlement. This one was ripe for settlement. The depositions alone were likely to be costly and the nature of the lawsuit didn't make either ABC or Trump look good. Arguing over whether Stephanopoulos was defaming Trump...

    You need to speak with an attorney in California. The situation you have amounts to a contract dispute, so an attorney who litigates contract matters is what I suggest you look for. There are a number of ways to find an attorney. Online I have two suggestions for you. The first is the State Bar...
