The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Me: And let me repeat: this was a Trump United States Attorney's investigation and plea agreement. Have a problem with it? Take it up with him.

Dope1: Tell me you don't know anything about how US attorneys are appointed without telling me you don't know anything about how US attorneys are appointed.

Trump appointed the guy that Delaware's democrat senators suggested. That's how it works.

No, that's not how it works.

In 2018, the Senate confirmed Weiss to serve as US attorney for the District of Delaware. At the time of his nomination, he was serving as the acting US attorney for the district and was one of nine candidates whom Trump said shared his "vision for 'Making America Safe Again.'"

Nice try, though.

Dope1: Do you really believe that Biden would have kept a Republican in that slot????

The 66-year-old Weiss, a Republican, will have to decide whether there is sufficient evidence to seek a federal grand jury indictment against the son of a sitting president, Democrat Joseph Biden.

The Google is your friend.
