    What are Trump’s odd of living through a second term? He isn’t in robust physical health. Neither he nor Bernie are spring chickens.

      Her and Scalia were best buddies.

            For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

            Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                  You gonna make fun of me if I say I like her, too? I disagree with about every opinion she's rendered, but I've always thought her and Scalia's friendship was cool, and she's remarkably intelligent.

                    I like her too. And I hope she's able to outlive Trump's presidency.

                          I know this was a joke but since one person has already died, it is safe to assume more will die.

                            Clearly the supreme court doesn't care about human lives.

                                That is a sad case, and the border control officer should be prosecuted for murder. But by an American court. The civil suit, which is what this decision is about, is less important to me.
                                Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.
