Just to address something I failed to in my call-in: 85-804's limit on $50k concerns the US' debt to contractor; the US can be held liable for more "[with] approval by an official at or above the level of an
Assistant Secretary or his Deputy, or an assistant head or his deputy,
of such department or agency, or by a Contract Adjustment Board
established therein. "

Barring the restrictions listed in the law it really does give the president carte blanche power to engage in contracts that he deems acts in the interest of national security. Obama used it in 2014 to indemnify private contractors working with USAID during the 2014 Ebola outbreak from lawsuits

Allsup does a better job laying this out than I do: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hn_rzIcSi-0

Does 10 USD buy you a packet of fags in the US?

no

How about a free BJ in the toilets then?

the person who would do it for that price you wouldn't want a BJ from

But! Think of the children!

Let me put that in another place

Wakanda is a fictional place. Just why?

late show comedy sketch?

not really funny. But thats the late show for you

That is so cringy

So dry.

It looked like a legit add.

@Nic Harvard of course my good man, John Milton’s “Paradise Lost” is the original and famous one! 😉 However the title is quite fitting for Giles Milton’s book also.

I’ll see if I can get a copy.
My knowledge of the late Ottoman Empire is scratchy - and almost all from the perspective of other European empires 1700-1925

The cringe and she thought this was a good idea? https://twitter.com/kamalaharris/status/1085009675744145408?s=21

I cringe at her existence

What bothers me, and I mean *really* bothers me is I cannot tell the difference between these clowns real shit and someone making a horrible parody of them

Yeah it’s indistinguishable

That's kinda the problem with politics right now, the left is literally beyond parody.

no one is talking policy its all who can be the biggest celebrity

They have to wait until they figure out what the "correct" policies are before they take a stance

I'm not convinced it was ever about policy.

And by ever I mean all history

@grant Some rare times it has been. Not often admittedly, and less so in the last 80 years

waste of money. I could have told them that for 1/2 the price http://www.fox5dc.com/news/majority-of-guns-used-by-criminals-bought-on-black-market-study-shows?fbclid=IwAR0NiBinAsnl1TnDuBlUBzELhj7Lcr21KHTc-jb_UVlyPhXMe7CmJT3a2UY

Hell if they gave you $20 you could have told them that

Easy

Thats because they don't listen to anyone who know anything about guns.
