Lifelong Republican who had to leave the party behind in 2016. Independent now and can't believe the difference in perspective letting go of the tribalism provides. Obsessed with con artists, cults and conspiracy theorists.

As long as Ohio Sen. John Husted has been in office, he's accepted over $116,000 from Les Wexner, former Victoria’s Secret CEO and alleged Epstein co-conspirator.

Husted accepted $3,500 from Wexner as recently as Julyβ€”only two months before voting to block the Epstein files release. trib.al/6iNBfAh

My "My name does not appear 38k times in the redacted Epstein files and 1M times in the unredacted files" tee shirt is prompting many questions already answered by my tee shirt.

Senate Democrats Block DHS Measure as Funding Deadline Approaches Lawmakers say they remain far apart on deal on Homeland Security to put new restrictions on immigration enforcement

NEW: Senate Democrats REJECT funding for DHS, which will lead to shutdown of the agency. Keep in mind, ICE and CBP are still funded by supplemental money in the BBB, but it's harder to spend and will deplete those funds. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

A brief, recent history of the Washington Post:

1- Trump wins in 2024.
2- Bezos and minions make series of Trump-friendly changes to paper.
3-Readership tanks.
4- Bezos and minions fire tons of employees while telling them the audience just doesn't like what they're doing.

Don't fall for the okie-doke. Lucy is just going to pull the football out again. They are all con men and will tell the media what they want to hear but don't report this as a fact until verifiable actions follow.

In Christianity we don't do disturbances in a house of worship to point out the hypocrisy of the religious leadership of the time. Can you imagine Jesus doing something like this? It's more important to protect the right of the clergy to oppress the least of these like it says in the Bible.

Killing the driver prevents the driver from stopping the vehicle which is now a deadly weapon that CANNOT be safely stopped or controlled.

An officer cannot claim self defense if he puts himself in front of the vehicle. They are also not justified if they can move out of the path of the vehicle. Shooting the driver does not stop the vehicle.

It wouldn't matter if he was DIRECTLY in front of the vehicle. Firstly because he PUT HIMSELF there, second the vehicle was starting from dead stop so there was plenty of time/space to move, 3rd the vehicle was steering to AVOID the officer. There are more factors as well.

He could have taken down the license plate and let the flock camera network track her down. There are VERY few situations where firing at a moving vehicle is advised or authorized.
