Whites in Durban set up "modesty" patrols to crack down on hooking. Sounds like the authoritarian impulse is still alive and well even though they are no longer in power.

Nice to see subculture features like this.

Encouraged survey respondents to under-report income through vague question design. Rookie mistake.

Bunga in fourth, current clown in third. Should be interesting, new types of italian corruption are on the way.

They slashed KRG funding, making an already secessionist province even more restive. If Jolani is smart, he's gonna leverage this to gain even more control over Kurdish politics.

Being largely ignored because it's not shia? check. Being basically a pile of rubble? check. These idiots are just experts at encouraging insurgency against them.

About damned time

MSNBC mentioned Russia 5000% more than Yemen last year. Guess which one they want you to think about.

This might finally be the thing that gets them to "put up or shut up" RE the evidence or not in the RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA stuff. Or not, they could just say "national security magic wand" as usual.

Innovations in Tyranny (TM)

Bush has run an anaemic – one might say low-energy – campaign...

Texas doesn't need another carpetbagging criminal. Hopefully the upcoming primaries end the Bush dynasty.

Makes for more exciting play, but certainly "changes the game" in ways the GMs and team owners may not have prepared for.

As has been well known colloquially, MI5 really are a thinly veiled crime gang.

Malinvestment: hurting the environment and driving up prices (as usual).

Lean out ground beef for burgers with 25% mushrooms, sell it as a health food that is "good for the environment".

Not posting the image for this one because (as WB7 would say) "Food and Beverage Warning". Pretty much perfectly sums up Trump's recent positions though.

Interesting findings. Sounds worth independent verification.

Drunk cop runs a red and plows into a black man, so they instead charged the black man with a DWI. Unfortunately for the taxpayer, the pigs didn't do a proper railroading job, so not only does the innocent man get off, he gets a $1m reward, as the department doesn't fire or otherwise discipline the officer responsible for all this. Hilariously enough, this caused the innocent man to become a cop, "realizing the power of the badge".

They attempt to tax & confiscate property from the church, then the christians predictably close the largest tourist draw to Jerusalem (the church of the Holy Sepulcher) and the catholic church tells its' followers that the Holy Land is no longer welcome to Christians. Now Israel has "frozen" the legislation indefinitely, but the damage is already done. One hopes this news spreads to the evangelicals here to show that the Israeli government is not worth defending.

USG doesn't do things to help you, citizen.

Like everyone else does, because to meet quotas you have to engage in illegal behavior.

Idiot.

Rightly sees innovation as the way forward, and public restraint of the market via corruption & licensure as the primary problem. Otherwise, he showed they've got a working flying crowbar and other un-interceptable strategic arms. I guess the US' underwater glider nukes don't make them so comfortable anymore. Interesting that he noted they were working on glide based systems, which are nigh-undetectable.

Anything with the term 'gun' anywhere in the string got nothing. They've obviously reverted it now, but this is great news for ctd, buds and ammoseek.

Formal demand for all foreign forces to skeedadle. US responds by threatening sanctions over them buying S-400s.
