To be fair to you, Tim, I don’t think Trump is walking through prisons in search of injustices. As far as I can tell people petition for their loved o...

Possibly big news. Read with caution (note the ellipses: Trump Offered Assange Pardon if He Covered Up Russian Hack, WikiLeaks Founder’s Lawyer Claims

This is gold. Reminds me of Tim’s post above. https://twitter.com/theangiestanton/status/1229960784228298752?s=21 Identitarians are the worst and are ...

2 of the 11 were black women, Tim, one of whom was arrested for drug offences. Another person arrested for drugs was Crystal Munoz, a Latino. These ar...

It looks like CNN is having another meltdown, this time over Trump’s pardoning spree. Trump's pardon spree deepens crisis gripping American justice

Hey thanks. Makes sense.
February 18, 2020 at 20:21
Any idea what the “no one” means? I cannot wrap my head around it.
February 18, 2020 at 18:43
That’s fair. But then again I don’t trust any news.
February 18, 2020 at 18:39
Have I ever attacked your source? No. Meanwhile you spend energy policing the bias of the source without being able to refute what was written.

It looks like Bloomberg’s vast wealth and propaganda is paying off. He has moved up enough to qualify for the next debate and is surging in the polls....

I just thought it was an interesting story. Smart or not, all Obama could do was talk and write speeches. Not very impressive if you ask me. Trump has...

Now I get to watch as you scurry off to find anything that confirms your biases.

Because I’m not as credulous as you. Would a racist endorse Jessie Jackson’s presidential campaign twice? Would a racist date a half-black woman? The ...

I’ve read the same well-documented nonsense you have. But then I went further. You’re stacking the deck without telling the other side of the story.
February 16, 2020 at 18:13
There is nothing wrong with speculating. But the notion that Trump is racist is an alternative fact, an anti-Trump smear that has been bandied around ...

Is this true or false? What news taught you this?

You want to give away your own power and give it to the government. That explains your level servility.

I thought Trump hired them.

To be fair they had fake documents.

Personally I think it's a fair decision in the McCabe case because he was already fired. But I do not think it is fair in the case of others.
February 15, 2020 at 00:13
They are saying the DOJ broke the plea agreement. It's complicated but that's the essential point. more heavy-handed recommendations and all that.
