There's little doubt he's stone cold guilty. Kinda wish Mr. Mike was posting at the moment to give us some professional insight as to how likely they are to actually stick and in what form.

Re: U.S. politics thread and Joe Biden-the Ronan O'Gara of U.S. Presidents

Basically both parties have done nothing but provide shite candidates for 3 straight elections, assuming Trump and Boden go again. The republicans not since Bush Senior. To put it mildly, this is abject nonsense. On the GOP ...

Re: The Australian Politics Thread
The case was not 'thrown out', nor was it Higgins' choice not to pursue it further. The trial had to be abandoned when a juror brought his own research during deliberations. The lead prosecutor later said he felt the same juror was the only one he doubted would convict. That's no proof of anything ...
