We know he's guilty, he knows he's guilty, the judge, lawyers, jury, etc. all know he's guilty. We knew it on jan 6 and we know it now. The time for a trial was years ago. And now that it's here it's dragging ass. How many examples of blatant disregard for the law is it going to take for this flap jowled pig fucker to see a prison cell? Jeeeesus christ

This is not a trial of trump.

This is a trial of the American justice system.

It was a “bold, controversial strategy” in the same way that firing on Fort Sumter was a bold, controversial strategy.

You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise, it’s crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?

You want me to tell you about my mom? My mother?

Blamo!

So it wasn't just me? 'Check all the boxes with a bike'. Fail. Maybe there was a bike behind a house or something...

Edit: Worked fine on my phone.

You guys are probably using privacy enhancing browsers, signs of the WebDRM technologies starting to be used. They want to track you or you don't get to access their content.

Do you have cookies turned off or something? I accidentally opened a link in Firefox the other day and got hit with that until I realized I have Firefox set to never keep any history, cookies, etc.

[–] thisbenzingring@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I am using Firefox on mobile but it has the default settings, I even tried it in private mode which is more settings enabled or relaxed.

Oh well

[–] SheeEttin@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Weird, I use Firefox on Android and it worked for me.
