In the US, people who solve problems get arrested, apparently. Or maybe it's just Alabama. We can pretend that, right?

2022-12-17 Alabama women, 85 and 61, sentenced after feeding stray cats

Two Alabama women have been given suspended jail sentences last week after feeding stray cats and trapping them so they could be neutered, a common public health intervention to reduce stray numbers.

Officials accused the pair of feeding feral cats near the courthouse, claiming it had resulted in thousands of dollars in property damage.

“Democrats on the committee said their investigation suggests Trump had not been correct in claiming during his 2016 campaign that he could not release the records himself because of an ongoing IRS audit.”

He had not been correct? Spit it out, fellas: He not been truthful.

Astonishing that anyone still feels obliged to talk in euphemisms about Trump’s lies. washingtonpost.com💳 , archive.is.

Thing is, I remember this claim being debunked back then, in 2016; why is it still being treated as a reasonable error in 2022?

If a candidate, use Kari Lake as an example decides to cite fraud and refuse to concede every single Republican that ran in that race should not be seated either. I’m beyond tired of hearing how this person lost due to fraud but yea every other race on the same ballot was good. It’s an argument that defies logic and makes no sense at all and the press needs to start bringing up that oh ok so Kari lake was defrauded but no one else on the same ballots was? Mock them for stupidity
