A white nationalist domestic terrorist with plans to cause a mass casualty event in the USA and you put up six posts about a celebrity?

You don’t give a shit about this nation.

God bless whoever figured this out and reported him.

As for Smolett - he clearly has some health issues - I would be concerned for his well being if close to him - and wouldnt expect him to serve any real time.

Heh

Doesnt matter.  They love their AOC.

No, just a willful misunderstanding of what she meant.

What else is new?

Well.
The Bill of Rights Lives and Breathes!
Thank you SCOTUS( unanimous)!

I would guess that you refer to Dawson v Steager, though you sure chose to be obscure.

For those interested in the case, here's a write-up of it.
https://www.scotusblog.com/2019/02/opinion-analysis-a-win-for-one-taxpayer-but-not-many-more/

Strikes me as a pretty clear decision, too. I'm glad it was 9-0, as I don't see a counter-argument to Gorsuch's decision.

However, it has very few applications outside of this case. Not none, but as the title of the piece suggests, "not many more."

Meanwhile, our amoral hypocrites, DimBulbWard and Kiiid, continue to give the Trump administration a pass on their kidnapping of thousands of children, their intentional failure to track them to enable reuniting with parents, and their hiding the fact that there were thousands more than they had previously reported in court reports during the summer of 2018.

But it turns out the lies by the administration go deeper than that - I'd forgotten both that prior to the zero tolerance implementation, the Trump Administration admitted to having already lost nearly 2,000 children in 2017!

Quote
When pressed about safety concerns Secretary Nielsen said, "I just want to say, I couldn't agree with your concerns more, period. We owe more to these children to protect them. So I'm saying I agree, we've taken steps and we will continue to strengthen what our partners do to protect these children."


There are 1,475 reasons not to be reassured by the secretary’s promise.

So much for Secretary Nielsen's commitment.

So much for the integrity of DimBulb and Kiiid - Kiiid who complained that I had to stop.

Why would he post about that when there is a minority celebrity to be attacking and a way to mock a vulnerable population.

DimBulbWard is an amoral hypocrite.

Yo...... what Ted said.

The best result would be the truth, wherever it goes, Kiiid.

I know you would prefer that it exonerate Trump, regardless of the truth. I'm reminded of Reagan and the report, A Nation at Risk, when he stood up on national television and explained what the report meant, despite not having read or discussed it with anybody -- and what he said had nothing to do with the contents of the report, only with what Reagan wanted it to say.
