People who are dismissively calling these "hoax bombs" are missing the entire point. Whether the devices cause carnage or not, the intent is to terrorize people and upend their lives, which is why the media needs to grow a backbone and call it what it is...domestic terrorism.

At this time of political chaos, let's not forget about the everyday corruption that still occurs on a daily basis.

As The World Turns Discussion Thread
James Karen had such an impressive body of work (his final project is still in production), I'm pretty sure everyone on this board knows him from somewhere. I remember him from an episode of The Golden Girls and who can forget his turn as the racist man who George saves on The Jeffersons?? His time on ATWT was before I was born but it sure would be nice is there was a clip out there somewhere that could be uploaded to YouTube by someone. CBS, remarkably produced a bunch of pristine clips of classic ATWT before the show was cancelled and I see some rare episodes from the 60s up there, so I hope one of him on this show can be found...somehow. As a child, growing up in the NYC tri-state area, I also remember him as Mr. Pathmark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcIrNPcknpk Don't these YouTube videos embed anymore?

Russia probably demanded that Trump use an unsecured line, better for them to listen in. The Chinese were not going to let a good unsecured line go to waste.

Speaking of Borna, this is a nice thing for him to do.

Yeah, I think José was saying Grigor landing outside the Top 20 was likely, not inevitable. I don't know what to say about Grigor's new look. I was envisioning a buzz cut like Borna Coric but I'm now guessing it's more extreme. I'm afraid to look now. Serena's going to be onstage for a talk with her ex. LOL.

I've heard people talking about Grigor's hair but I haven't seen it because I have yet to see one of his matches in about two weeks now. CoCo Vandeghwe's ranking is also going to have a severe drop as well.

He didn't have to, someone said that someone on Fox Newschannel has proposed that Hillary sent the package to herself. I knew some right-winger would get around to doing this.- The Politics Thread
According to CNN, the devices were "rudimentary but functional", which makes me think that they were very basic in construction but they were capable of a good amount of destruction.- The Politics Thread
Yet Trump is still scheduled to go on one of his Dumpster dive rallies where he's likely ramble on about how each of these people sent it to themselves to spite him.- The Politics Thread
Who misspells Florida on the return address of a package?? Although frankly, I have an idea of the type of person who would do that.- The Politics Thread
And sadly, a good portion of those mailroom people tend to be long-term temporary workers who don't even get the full and proper benefits of a permanent employee.- The Politics Thread
NY Governor Andrew Cuomo just announced during a live-streamed/televised PC that a device was sent to his Manhattan office and is being handled.- The Politics Thread
There must be a list out there.- The Politics Thread
God, I knew someone connected with upper law enforcement would be targeted somehow. I was thinking of a former FBI official but I guess this is of the same intention. All those documentaries I used to watch describing the chaos and political upheaval of years like 1968--this feels a little bit like what I imagined those years of turbulence and chaos felt like, on a more modest, slightly less violent level.- The Politics Thread
Also, it doesn't affect white guys. Just gonna keep it real, right there.- The Politics Thread
Speaking of people in positions of prominence not doing their jobs, I keep wondering when a serious and earnest discussion of voter suppression will take place.- The Politics Thread
I will have to take your word on that but as someone who used to live, study and work in NYC and was there on September 11th, I think most people are underestimating the effect that the effect of something like that can have on your psyche. Perhaps CNN headquarters in Atlanta won't care, I'll give you that but I would think those people in the Time Warner building would care.- The Politics Thread
CNN will certainly care, I would believe.- The Politics Thread
Thing is...it's not just Democrats that this is happening to. Add Les Moonves/CBS and you've got the truth right there!- The Politics Thread
Trump's America and everyone who voted for this monstrosity is responsible.- The Politics Thread
Maybe because a link between The Proud Boys and the Heritage Foundation was recently discovered? Of course, the press can't be relied upon to actually do some research to verify whether or not this is the case. Just more rhetoric on caravans thousands of miles away from any U.S. border. - The Tennis Thread
