[Hairy Lime]

Daniel Cameron stepped up today and laid out the facts he found in the Breonna Taylor case in Kentucky.
As the state’s attorney general
 AND
the special prosecutor Cameron told us

https://www.cnn.com/videos/justice/2020/09/23/kentucky-attorney-general-daniel-cameron-breonna-taylor-officers-charges-sot-nr-vpx.cnn
Cameron added that the outcome didn’t match the narrative of the last 6 months but pointed out that the system has to operate on facts, evidence and the law, not “emotion or outrage.”
He also confirmed another fact that had been misreported:
The police did knock and announce themselves, and they had a civilian witness to corroborate it.

Ham sandwich.

Which means they didn’t want an indictment.

The same source said Birx, who has spent much of her career tackling global health crises from Covid-19 to AIDS, is not likely to end her time in government service by stepping down from the task force.
"She is a good soldier. I don't think she's going anywhere," the source said

[bankshot1]

"She is a good soldier."


But the problem is Birx is a doctor and not a soldier.

And she knows Trump's incompetent and partisan malpractice of public health is killing people.

She should act like a doctor, not a soldier, remember her oath, and "first, do ho harm".

Yup.

Considering.

Try a dictionary, sometime.

Or don't. I don't really give a fuck what you do, anymore, outside of this space and little about within it.

We’re going to have to round them all up and herd them into Florida in an inverse Trail of Tears. There they can work on their authority issues as they adapt to the climate and the climate adapts to them.

There are somewhere close to a billion privately held gun in the United States. The enemies of this country, who put trump in power, want to see us turn all of them on one another. This is a service trump is doing eagerly for those he serves.

---Black attorney general chokes up during Taylor announcement---

Trying to feel the pain, but seriously to start shooting at cops?

[barton]

Yep.  People of Praise does share similarities in its doctrines to the People of Hope, and both are Charismatics.   Either community excludes women from the highest leadership positions and teaches that men are the spiritual leaders of their families.  So... tomayto,  tomahto. 

That answer doesn’t even rise to a LOL! it is so juvenile.
But at least the dems got another chance to don the HandMaiden costumes they bought for the Kavanaugh Cavalcade of lies.

You're not following at all.   You post that Newsweek misreported that Atwood based her Gilead society on People of Praise,  when it was a newspaper clipping on a different group called People of Hope.   You implied that this somehow  meant that the cultish comparison between Coney Barret's group and Atwood's Gilead was therefore invalid.

I pointed out that People of Praise,  like People of Hope, also is a charismatic group which does not allow women in leadership positions and places the man as the spiritual leader of a family.   And P of P also used to call women members "handmaidens, " only changing the name when the book was published and widely read.   Therefore,  your distinction,  while it did show a magazine's error,  was a distinction without a difference.
 The two groups indeed share cultish sexist doctrines that would potentially cloud the impartiality of a SC justice.
