Complicit (Video)
[Daily Beast] "Every man knows her name. Every woman knows her face," the voiceover intones. "When she walks into a room, all eyes are on her. She's Ivanka."

Saturday Night Live may have gone a little soft on President Donald Trump in this week’s cold open, but his favorite daughter Ivanka Trump -- as played by host Scarlett Johansson -- and her faux-feminism were not so lucky.

"She's beautiful. She's powerful. She's... Complicit," the perfume ad continues. "She's a woman who knows what she wants. And knows what she's doing. Complicit."

#2  Confucius Stevenson have something to say about this...

O fine religious, decent folk,
In Virtue's flaunting gold and scarlet,
I sneer between two puffs of smoke, -
Give me the publican and harlot.

#5  They keep up this propaganda and they will be off the air in a year...I betcha the ratings have plunged everywhere over this non-stop political crap.

Really SNL is nothing but a Manhattan humor show, you have to live there to catch almost all of the "humor" and now even the "humor" is gone.

After Ackroyd, Murray, and Beluchi left, there was nothing to laugh at.

#6  Donks shouldn't teach Republicans that it OK to go after the next Donk president's kids. But perhaps if they keep this up there wont be another donk president.

India-Pakistan
Military courts’ establishment similar to admitting failure of our system: Asif
[GEO.TV] Defence Minister Khawaja Asif said on Saturday that though he is in favour of military courts, establishing such courts is synonymous to admitting that our present system has failed.

Addressing the District Bar Sialkot, the minister said, "Those who have pointed their guns on us, and on whose target is our society, country and our system, were armed 25 years ago by the then state."

"The goals were different then; but no one would have thought that the same guns would be turned on us," he said.

"No one knew that we would legislate and bring a constitutional amendment to punish them."

The government on Friday tabled a draft bill in the National Assembly seeking amendment in the constitution for establishment of these special courts.

The bill was tabled by State Minister for Law Zahid Hamid on Friday for the revival of military courts for another two years.

The draft stated that the country is going through extraordinary circumstances where terrorist organizations pose a threat to its existence. In such a situation, extraordinary measures must be taken, Hamid said on the floor of the assembly.
