Chinese-American and other "Fusion" cuisine is better than the stir fried magical mystery meat and other assorted noodles and broths and Coronaviral wet market flavorings that makes up Chinese cuisine anyways (in my expert opinion).
Not to mention the Chinese using "street oil" (actual sewage) in said Chinese restaurants and stalls.

Democratic Rhode Island State Senator Joshua Miller, a sixty nine (heh) year old man, was arrested for keying a car in a parking lot that had a 'Biden Sucks' bumper sticker on it.

The son of the man who owns the car heard a scratching sound, confronted Joshua Miller who denied he keyed the car, and then drove off. The other man noticed Joshua Miller had a State Senator Joshua Miller bumper sticker on his vehicle as he drove away and looked him up on the internet before contacting police.

When police confronted State Senator Joshua Miller, he denied that he did anything and actually said the other man threatened him and 'trapped' him between the cars, falsely accusing him of keying the car and said that he might be one of the gun nuts that has been stalking him due to his supporting of anti-gun legislation. He then name dropped a Police Colonel who might know more about the threats to him.

Surveillance footage soon corroborated the victims story.

So State Senator Joshua Miller didn't change most of his story beyond stating "Because he was daring me to, basically" after being threatened by him.


The police are also unaware of any stalking or threats made against the State Senator.

The victim also stated he didn't recognize the guy and didn't know who he was until he saw the bumper sticker on his car.



Also as of the posting of this... Biden still sucks.


Update on the case. Rhode Island State Senator Joshua Miller pleaded no contest in court, paid $2800 in restitution to the owner of the car that he intentionally keyed, and $250 to a local community food bank for the 'obstruction' charge where he repeatedly lied to police and tried to blame the victim.

He also read out an apology in Court

The Blaze said:
"I am truly sorry for my actions in this matter, and I am disappointed in my behavior and lack of judgement," Miller said, according to WPRO. "In a blink of an eye, I exhibited a lack of self-control that has impacted my reputation. For that, I only have myself to blame as I am solely responsible for what led to today's court proceedings."

He added, "To my constituents and supporters and Senate colleagues, I apologize for my actions. Most importantly, to those directly impacted by my conduct, I offer my sincere apologies. All I can ask is that I be judged on how I have comported myself throughout my life as a husband, father, business owner, employer, and public servant," the station said.

Powerful words... but as of yet, has no plans on resigning and local party leadership agrees that there is no case for him to resign.

The Blaze said:
State Senate President Dominick Ruggerio, also a Democrat, said in a statement that he sees no need to remove Miller from the chairmanship of the Senate Committee on Health and Human Services, WPRO reported.

"Sen. Miller's actions on June 22 were deeply regrettable. He has accepted full responsibility, demonstrated sincere remorse, and made restitution," Ruggerio wrote, according to the station. "I don't believe that any one of us would want to be judged solely upon our worst moments."

Yeah I'm sure this was the first time he acted so petty and just happened to get caught.

Fair enough, but that "I don't believe that any one of us would want to be judged solely upon our worst moments." quote bugs me; because I know there's an unspoken "Though it's okay to do it to our enemies, of course." tacked on at the end.
Well ya, that's why they're called enemies. The political right giving the time of day to empty disarmament rhetoric like this is part of why they keep taking Ls. Of course your opponent wants a handicap to help him win, why are you considering it.

Bjornar Moxnes, leader of Norways Socialist Left Wing Red Party has resigned after being caught stealing two Hugo Boss sunglasses from an Oslo Airport store.



He wasn't able to explain why he engaged in "something so stupid" but it likely had to do with reasons of pure ideology with the shop possessing many sunglasses while he, rather unfairly, was in possession of no sunglasses and decided to rectify the situation through re-distributive means.


The forty one year old was a member of the Red Youth in his younger years and was ranked as one of the countries top ten political talents and was active in the Red Party since its formation in 2007, having served as its Deputy Leader in 2010 and Party Leader since 2012. In the latest elections the Party secured 4.6% of the vote and boasted over 14,000 members.

So this stupid motherfucker wants to effectively institute a backdoor draft and force government service in order to vote.

I'm open to arguments that it's better than what we have now.
It is unConstitutional to begin with, and would require a Constitutional Amendment to enact, because it is little different than a poll tax, and does put unreasonable burdens on the right to vote for people under 25.

This is sour grapes from the son of immigrants who doesn't like that native borne Americans don't have to pass the same tests to vote/be a citizen that greencard holders do, and who mistakenly thinks forcing public service and barriers to voting will make people value the vote more, rather than hate the GOP and people who push this.

Am I missing something? Vivek Ramaswamy was born in Cincinnati and is a US citizen.
You're right, he said his parents, not himself, were immigrants; I mis-stated before.

It's still sour grapes about immigrants needing to take tests to get the right to vote/citizenship while native borne Americans don't.

However the fact this guy is even entertaining this sort of backdoor draft as a requirment to vote as something to desire shows he is poison of one of the most foul types.
