You're grammar is just fine. English has both positive and negative concordance, and people who criticize double negatives are trying and failing to be clever.

(In general, many of the more pretentious grammar "rules" were made up in the 18th C by dictionarians trying to outdo each other. Often they are attempts to import Latin rules into English, a language with Germanic-descended grammar.)

Are you asking for an explanation? I'm going to give one anyway. First, I meant "concord" not "concordance". Sorry. Anyway, some languages have negative concord: two or more negatives reinforce and are still a negative, e.g. "I can't get no satisfaction" or "I don't know nothing" ../..

If you were paying attention you would notice that I already corrected myself. For the record, I don't think I determine, I think that the speakers of a language determine. And every English speaker except language snobs knows that "I ain't got no" is correct English.

We will never know what's what because our DOJ doesn't seem to find these things as issues. How is it possible for Dual-citizens American - Israeli to work in federal government here? Who approves these ppl, and who are they loyal to?

Ya think? They are all corrupt to the core with black hearts. Greed and zest for power runs through their veins without regard for others. May Madam Karma bitch slap each and every one of them.

She’s getting money from somebody & it should be investigated! If she’s honest it’ll get out but if she’s lying she will look even worse than she did before! We already know she killed a poor helpless puppy for no good reason. She could have found the puppy a better home instead of killing it! She’s

And we have the exact same here in Australia. We are in a massive housing crisis & our politicians are multi millionaires & our Prime Minister just bought a $4 million house while working families are living in their cars. 😡😡😡

That’s true now! Citizens United was the death blow to our Democratic Republic! But hey it would just take one decent President with brains to change this all up! No money or bribes in politics, term limits, tax the rich and churches! No corporate sponsorship!

If America was actually a proper functioning Democracy, Trump would have been arrested straight away & held without bail on J6. It took 2 days to impeach the South Korean President & 2 weeks to indict him. That's how a real Democracy works.

You mean the “tech-bros” who dream of a future where they float around on anti-grav couches attended by AI robots powered on the souls of minorities & POC’s ! Those tech bros⁉️😳

They gotta invent and develop them first and if Elon is any example, that ain't gonna happen anytime soon. We were supposed to be on Mars, traveling in hyperloops cross country and have driverless cars everywhere by now.

Seems like the husband she reportedly cheats on has a carwash and an insurance company (alongside their farm) and earns well over $1M/year.. So I'm sure that's all above board.

Burlt a government salary affords you, free Healthcare for life, pension for life, and every fucking POS human that can buu you off. What a great place to work, or pretend.

Base slary is 174,000 right? Poverty level is 15gs, 54gs for 8 memeber household. A hell of a lot of Americans make a lot less than that, and from down here buying a rolex on 174K is easily doable, maybe not smart fiscally, but doable. 3gs in cash is something else, drugs, payoffs, bribes???

I get your sentiment. I wonder why whenever a woman does something wrong, it means she has sex for money? Have we ceded to the right that sex work is the worst, even tho they patronize them more than Dems? Or do you have evidence she's earned money in exchange for sex? Not picking on you personally

I do not support Noem or Trump, and I don't know about the cash in her purse, but I'm pretty sure being a public figure gives you a platform to sell books and make other endorsements, which makes you money. The talking point that politicians only get rich from bribes or such is lame.

I would never say she's smuggling guns and fentanylfentanyl across the border; or, that ancient alien astronaut theorists believe she is human trafficking - including children - for profit, but IGN boards suggest that Last of Us 2 Episode 2 was a good in'

Two more questions: Who was she having dinner with? Her security detail did not immediately see the theft. Did Noem request that they look away & "give her some privacy", or could they not bear to watch what was going on?

She best get her a new residence, seeing that whomever took the purse has her address and the keys to her abode. They definitely struck gold. Got her credentials too...someone might be cosplaying ICE Barbie soon. 😆

Seriously, wouldn’t she have had some sort of security detail with/near her? And did she go to dinner alone? Why did she leave her bag? Lots of questions to be answered. If she can’t keep her own belongings safe how can she keep a country safe?
