    I utilized multiple sources to learn Spanish. Independent books, classes, friends, random people, movies, and music....lol.

    The resources for other languages just seem limited here in the US. Music is the big advantage and major resource Spanish has that's lacking in other languages. The lack of good French music is particularly disappointing for such a beautiful language.

    For German I'll learn it anyway I can. Its going to be the only language I'll explore in depth beyond the romance family.

    "Duolingo" is a great free app that can help you learn multiple languages.

    Ok, you are an autodidact. It's possible if you have a thing for languages and the necessary discipline. Yes, there are lots of opportunities to speak and hear Spanish in the US. Actually, there's quite a bit of French music?! There's also lots of contemporary German music...

    Btw, one still can't post on your page. Maybe you have to look into it so I don't have to keep abusing threads on this forum.

    I like this one. Used to be super popular in Germany. As is Zaz and Louane.

    Yes I guess its hard for me to appreciate words without the sound. Its not like math. Equations paint pictures and represent shapes. I can't get pictures from words unless its a clever song or story.

    You should really give duolingo a try, they sound out the words and have pictures that go along with the learning. All totally free

    You're reaching.lol

    Many lawyers felt that Trump's travel ban was unconstitutional because it was a thinly veiled Muslim ban. You can't ban citizens from coming into the country because of their religious faith.

    One lawyer complimenting another lawyer for standing up for the Constitution isn't really controversial.

    Look, the Mueller investigation will stand on the facts. If you have a problem with the Mueller investigation, which I'm sure you will, why not wait for it to come out first instead of trying to discredit the entire process beforehand.

    Mueller is a registered Republican. He's on your team.

    I don't know why some conservatives refuse to believe just maybe Trump isn't this ethical and righteous populist hero some of you believe him to be.

    Mueller was the smartest, the most competent genuine and trustworthy man ever when they appointed him. Now that he's digging up some things they didn't want he and his people are the devil. Trump himself approved of Mueller. Now we are hearing talks of "agents' and conspiracy theories from his camp and his followers. In fact, everyone who doesn't fit the picture is a devil. It's nothing new. There's no proof of anything in it.

    How can it be a "Muslim Ban" when it was merely Trump enforcing Obama's ban already on the books?

    As you know, there's ONE BILLION MUSLIMS, so stop with the muslim nonsense. It covered only a few countries temporarily for 90 days ..just 90 days AB, who didn't vett properly along with a terror history.

    She was "Upholding the Constitution" my ass, she was protecting no such thing and you damn well know it, the President has full power of whom they allow into this country. She was an Obama holdover who defied her position's obligation and her new boss. This is why the The Supreme Court upheld the ban.
    This senior deputy in Mueller's probe needs to be removed stat, l can't believe you're defending this taint.

    FBI will hand over anti-Trump texts its top Hillary and Russia investigator sent his lover after buckling to warning it could be held in contempt of Congress
    By Nikki Schwab, U.S. Political Reporter
    • FBI senior Agent on the Mueller Russia Probe, Peter Strzok's, texted anti-Trump sentiments to his lover
    • He was on the Mueller probe until the texts to his mistress, an FBI lawyer, Lisa Page, were revealed internally in August
    • But he was also senior official in the Hillary Clinton secret server probe which let two of her aides off with untruths
    • He then CHANGED the language of Comey's memo about Clinton to remove 'grossly negligent', the standard for prosecution of mishandling intelligence, to "extremely careless" so she could not be arrested
    The text message scandal broke when both the Washington Post and the New York Times reported that the messages were the reason Strzok got reassigned to the FBI's human resources department earlier this year.

    As the Post put it, the messages 'expressed anti-Trump sentiments and other comments that appeared to favor Clinton.'

    A spokesman for Mueller's office told the newspaper that Strzok was removed 'immediately upon learning of the allegations.'

    Page had already left the Mueller probe by the time the text messages were discovered. She has since returned to the FBI.

    But Strzok was also a critical figure in the Clinton secret server probe, interviewing her top two aides, Huma Adedin and Cheryl Mills, who were not charged with lying to the FBI despite their evidence they knew nothing of her server being at odds with emails they had sent, and removing language from a memo which would have led to Clinton herself being charged.

    In August ABC News reported on Strzok's removal from the Mueller investigation, as the special counsel's team looked into Russian meddling in the 2016 election and whether there was collusion with President Trump's campaign.

    But Mueller never disclosed why he was ousted.

    Stop trying to scapegoat Obama whenever Trump decides to do dumb shit.
    Trump's ban on ANYONE entering the U.S. from Iraq, Syria, Iran, Yemen, Somalia, Sudan and Libya for 90 days, no matter what, is NOTHING at all like Obama's administration halt of processing Iraqi refugee for 6 months in 2011.

    Obama's actions were a response to a specific terrorist plot by Iraqi refugees in Kentucky attempting to send aid to Al Qaeda who didn't disclose their previous terrorism ties.
    Even while Obama put a halt on processing new Iraqi visas, Iraqi refugees were still being admitted into the country.

    What were Trump's reasons for attempting to block the entry of citizens from the 7 countries I listed, even if they had green cards, or were attending university in the United States, or had gone back home briefly to visit relatives??
    There was no 'reason', except Trump didn't want Muslims coming into the country and the courts recognized it.
    There was no imminent threat, there was no diplomatic crisis.
    Trump was just being Trump, which means a White nationalist bigot.

    The POTUS isn't a king.
    Trump can't make declarations that are unconstitutional. Every court in the country where the Trump administration tried to get his Muslim ban enforced rejected it because the parameters were too broad.

    This is the 3rd iteration of Trump's travel ban, which now includes Venezuela(wtf??), Chad and North Korea.lol

    There is no end date for Trump's latest ban. Makes sense. Because it's temporary.smh.

    You may disagree with Yates' legal position, but don't act like she was a part of conspiracy to gum up the works for the Trump administration.
    Apparently the Supreme Court, a federal court in Hawaii and a court in Maryland agreed with her.

    Comments like this make kinda sad that I hid Bliss, but my tolerance for nonstop goalpost moving, deflection, hypocrisy, and conspiracy-based nonsense is only so high.
