    I'm in the top 1% of income, and I'm feeling the inflation. I have no idea how the lower and middle class are doing it.

    :roflol: What type of expense is it? This should be good. Paying his lawyer for services is what type of expense? Rent? Paying for a legal agreement is what type of expense?...

    You responded to my question, "where's the crime" in logging an NDA as a "legal expense" with saying it's "never a legal expense" if there is a campaign benefit. That's false....

    That is your claim. You said it's a crime to engage in an NDA that helps a campaign. And you awkwardly said NDA's aren't legal expenses for some strange reason. Just because an...

    It's inappropriate to call StillBlue a liar. You don't have to agree with his attacks on the First Amendment, but respectful disagreement is needed. Ad hominems aren't needed.

    There's no law that you can't engage in an NDA if you're running for office, lol.

    I think it's more embarrassing to promote fascist truth police policies where people lose their rights if their political adversaries call them liars.

    You're hiding from the fact that contextualism often ignores the law. That's the purpose. Justices use "ambiguity," or a false sense of ambiguity, to justify what they want. An...

  22. CornPop replied to the thread Which parts of the US Constitution need to have a more modern interpretation?.

    This is what amendments and legislation are for. You don't get to change the meaning of the Constitution to suit your liberal agenda without lawful legislation or amendments.

  28. CornPop replied to the thread Trump Was Fined $9,000 For Speaking.

    That's not true. The prosecution asked for the maximum fine of $1000 and it was granted. Nothing Trump did was so egregious that they could get away with throwing him in jail.
