America has been waging a war on drugs for almost 40 years and it's not working. 
Maybe America should try waging the war sober and see what happens.

The street value of sober will go up and there will be disproportionate collateral damage falling on the poor and people of color.

It will give Mitt Romney that bad boy edge he’s always secretly wanted.

"We should have listened."

~Roger Goodell to Colin Kaepernick
Listened to what?
How is the NBA doing with its Marxist signage?
Checked its TV ratings lately?

By the way say there is some epic hooping going on in the bubble.

No Covid19 positives, either.

You and President Pant load think the whole world runs on ratings.

School reopening lawsuit: Judge rules in favor of Florida teachers
The Florida Department of Education quickly appealed the ruling, which called the state's actions unconstitutional.

Nobody wants the schools to reopen early except Trumpsters. Make believe the pandemic never happened.
You must not live in a big city with rotten public schools.

What’s that have to do with pushing children out into danger?

Good news for Biden out of the colleges:
https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/513336-biden-holds-52-point-lead-over-trump-among-college-students-poll

81% of Democratic-leaning college students  "absolutely certain" that they will vote in the presidential election compared with 74% of GOP-leaning college students and 63% of independents. Women are 10% more likely than men, among them.

Only 49% had a positive view of Biden, 51% negative. But 19% had a positive view of Trump compared to 81% negative.

Nonetheless, a full 70% say they will vote for Biden, versus only 18% for President Trump. Given the substantial increase in younger voters' turnout in 2018, this all bodes well.

This is the link for the poll, but at the bottom of this link is a 34 page PDF discussing all of this in greater detail:

Falwell still on the speaking schedule at the RNC?

It has worked.
Imagine the carnage if it had done nothing.
Cannabis can cause hallucinations, changes in mood, amnesia, depersonalisation, paranoia, delusion and disorientation. You might find it harder to concentrate or remember things. You may find that you can’t sleep well and you feel depressed. You may also feel hungry or like time is slowing down.

You might have lower motivation. And cannabis can affect how you sense things. You may see, hear or feel things differently. This is known as hallucinating. Hallucinations can be a sign of psychosis.

Psychosis can be a symptom of mental illness, including schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder and bipolar disorder. These can be called ‘psychotic illnesses.’

All bad.

You display all of the above effects from simply listening to a stream of lies on your radio.

Definitely don’t try pot, or soda, or coffee. You constitution is not strong enough. You will definitely freak the fuck out.

lol
I'll be 75 next birthday, not 25.
From England, 5 murder suicides thought now to be
work of a serial killer targeting happily married pensioners.
Of course...the latest despised people in society.
Shouldn' t be long before the trend hits Australia.
If only I could own guns and have them ready to fire.
The serial killer could be a pyscho high on drugs.

The one policy idea put forward tonight by the naked savages was to completely bankrupt Social Security by 2023. Real nice people, these republicans.

Fuck you. Republicans think bipartisan means when democrats totally capitulate in Order to “get something done” because the GOP would burn down the country to get their way. GOP policies gutted LBJ Great Society President grams and declared them failures even as they were wildly successful,

You don’t give a fuck about black kids.

Open8ng the schools with no plan or strategy is a symbol of not giv8ng a shit.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/new-york-ag-trump-organization-lawsuit/2020/08/24/882c03a8-e60e-11ea-bc79-834454439a44_story.html

Quote
The New York attorney general is investigating whether President Trump’s company misled lenders and taxing authorities by improperly inflating the value of his assets, according to a court filing on Monday.

The filing from Attorney General Letitia James (D) said that the Trump Organization has declined to hand over some documents that had been subpoenaed, and that the president’s son Eric has refused to be interviewed. James’s inquiry began 18 months ago, but James had not disclosed its focus or scope before Monday.

Eric Trump — now the day-to-day leader of his father’s company — agreed to an interview, and then canceled two days before, according to the filing. He has declined to set another date, citing “rights afforded to every individual under the Constitution” to justify refusing the subpoena for an interview, the attorney general said.

In addition, James said, Trump’s company has declined to produce any documentation to show it had paid the proper taxes when one of its lenders forgave more than $100 million of debt on the Trump hotel in Chicago.

The filing showed Trump’s company is now facing two advanced investigations into its finances in New York state — both focused on the years before he took office.

Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. (D) is separately looking into payoffs made in 2016 to women who alleged they had affairs with Trump — and Vance’s recent filings suggest that his probe may have expanded to cover other financial dealings at the company.

In Monday’s filing, James asked a New York state judge to order Eric Trump and the Trump Organization — which is based in New York — to comply with the subpoenas. James said this is a civil investigation, not a criminal one.

Not a criminal investigation.

Yet.

But if they keep refusing to hand over subpoenaed documents and pleading the 5th, it may well get to the criminal piece soon!
