Native speakers are poor writers generally, but it's the way in which this is poor that signals non-native. Huge trouble with plurals. "We don't want business run by refugees and immigrant." My guess is east Asian.

LOL remember when you tried to contradict smug libs about this guy?

Quote:
Three people, including one of Gorka's former political allies, said he was a well-known member of Vitezi Rend back in Hungary, a charge he strongly denies.
Defending a ****ing Nazi to own the libs, LOL.

Today someone told me Trump's core competency is extracting value from bankruptcies.

Guy's a lawyer that has been working with Trump on and off during such proceedings. Told me that 30 years ago, his partner (at law firm) had this conversation with Trump:

Do you know the sources of funding of your project? (Taj)
Yes.
Do you know xxx pension fund invested xxx in your project?
Yes.
Do you know a lot of retirees invested in your project and will never recover their investments?
I guess they never did their due diligence on me huh.

Lol. Trump's core competency is borrowing money and not paying it back.

People like this should have been shouting from from the rooftops during the election. Maybe they did and it didn't matter.

First, it was a woman. Second, her name has been included in several reports of the situation. Third, she was banned from AirBNB.

Bill O'Reilly's ratings increase after reports of sexual harassment settlements come out

It's things like this that really make it clear and obvious that conservatives are the worst people on the planet. They will reflexively defend anything or anyone, no matter how terrible, just because liberals oppose them.

If I'm not mistaken, that was after the fact, and it was not initially reported by any of the major mainstream pubs (e.g. WaPo) that ran the story.

As far as the owner's actual identity, here's one source I read

Quote:
On Thursday, an NBC affiliate from Los Angeles published an account of a law student named Dyne Suh who was rejected by an #AirBnB host at the last minute because she was Asian. The name of the host Tami Baker Sutter was floated around on social media but it was eventually confirmed on Friday by a Facebook user named Jennifer Don who did some investigative work of her own as a result of triggered outrage on social media.
So it sounds like no one in the press really made an effort to discover her identity. If some rando on Facebook can figure it out, then I'm sure the folks at WaPo could have figured it out if they wanted to. I guess they didn't think it was that important.

Moreover, and I may be wrong on this, I have not seen any of the major news outlets actually publish her name after her identity had been discovered. The only ones that I saw that have reported it (so far) are outside of what I would call mainstream. I didn't spend that long combing every single one, but I checked several and didn't see it.

Remember that awful Watters guy, who seemed to be going out of his way to offend as many people as possible on the street last year. Well he was rewarded with his very own Fox news show.

Was that the guy who did the Chinatown bit on Fox News?

Yeah.

lol, they didn't just increase, they went up more than 50% week over week. These people are the worst.

I would be perfectly happy with a 3-state solution in the US. The west coast can be its own country, as well as whatever New England territories would like to live in a civilized country. The flyover red states can run their economies into the ground and pretend religion is science all they want.

Man forcibly removed from overbooked United flight
http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/201...ed_flight.html
Quote:
The woman who shot the video, Audra D. Bridges, said United offered passengers $400 and a free night in a hotel to take a flight at 3 p.m. Monday. When no one said yes, the airline doubled the offer to $800. Again, no one accepted the deal.

Then, United said a computer would randomly choose which passengers had to depart the already-boarded flight.

Two gave up their seats willingly, but another passenger, a man who said he was a doctor, would not give up his seat when asked to leave the flight. The video shows him being approached by security, tossed against a metal armrest and then pulled from his seat and and dragged down the aisle as he screamed and other passengers looked on in horror.

The bloodied, disoriented man was eventually allowed to re-board flight 3411, which took off O'Hare International Airport two hours behind schedule.

The man was unwilling to give up his seat because he had patients to see in the Louisville-area early Monday.

That post might be more appropriate in the law&order thread.

That's just united air security being dumb and united air being cheap

Apparently it was Chicago Aviation Police.

Republicans have found another area of science they can attack now that they control the Department of Justice.
