It looks like there's no mention of suicide, suicidal, or even the word "thoughts" in the complaint.

I'm hoping we can surprise people and flip California red(highly unlinkley), otherwise I can't do much since all my family and connections are here and my husband does not want to leave.

If it wasn't for in-laws/family pressure, I would have probably moved to another state, but then a part of me realizes that moving doesn't fix the problem because eventually there is no where else to go.

I guess Tulsi is desperate for money to keep her campaign going.



Maybe but she might also have a legitimate case. If Clinton smeared her and tanked her campaign, she might have a claim.

Clinton helped her campaign. It was tanking before the "Russian asset" stuff.

I don't think a political candidate has much of a case suing someone for criticizing them tbh.

I've seen similar said about Trump and McConnell. It seems that "Russian spy/asset/stooge" is just a popular attack now.

It was always bullshit from the start.

The funny thing is, if Democrats wanted to pin Trump on colluding with a foreign power, Israel and Saudi Arabia would be pretty easy wins. I wonder why they don't fight those battles :^)

Yeah that would work. I live in TX-26, I guess it'd be called something like "Denton-Northwest DFW".

That would likely be the simplest way to do it. You could also use geographic regions for larger rural districts

Yeah, but the Israel lobby's strong on both sides of the floor, whilst we still have a big dependence on the Saudis. Even though we export more than we import, we still need to keep them on our side because we remember the last time they all hated us in the 70s. As I've said before, a divided Middle East is a submissive Middle East, and that's what we want more than anything else.
