      Unfortunately she’s protected by congressional immunity. If only people in power didn’t create special rules for themselves.

        Only when she says it on the floor as a congresswoman. She doesn’t have carte blanche to say whatever she wants anywhere else.

        And since she sent out his nudes in a mailer, he can sue

      hunter biden matters to republicans because he’s the only thing they can hang on joe biden, who has been honestly masterful in the way he’s navigated the late and post-pandemic.

      Taking a private citizens’s nudes and sharing it against their will in congress may go against the spirit of that clause. I would love to see how this holds up in court.

    One side uses a distraction. It gets full media attention. People get involved. People get angry. People start blaming each other. Then, the other side counters with a distraction. It gets even more heated. This time it’s personal. There might even be consequences. Maybe…

    Why the fuck are you eating all this rotting shit those out of touch, self-absorbed, greedy, attention-seeking Partisans are serving you?

            I’m not a US citizen. I don’t care for your celebrity obsessions and gossip. I just don’t understand why shit like this is making news, let alone being part of your political life. Or lawcrafting… Let me remind you, we are not talking about making laws, we are talking about naked pictures of some dude…

                Yes, and by giving it any kind of attention you’re basically promoting this kind of behavior in your political institutions. And then, after few years you wonder why your political landscape is full of reality-tv-show clowns. It’s “Keeping up with Kardassians” but with diplomatic immunity. And I’m talking about both of your political spectra, not just the one easy target.
