There are so many unelected people with untold power in this criminal administration. None of them would get through a Congressional hearing.

Every day I wake up dreading the news I'm likely to see on one hand and eagerly looking for the news I want on the other. So far, dread is fulfilled and anticipation sadly dissipates.

My theory is he's getting treatment for whatever physical ailment he's got and probably taking some more "cognitives" for the dementia.

If he was honest, he would say, "I just don't like having to look at Black people on the TV, or driving down the road, or at work. I don't like them thinking they're equal to me. I'm just a stone fucking racist, it's who I am, and so there."
Except he wouldn't say "Black people."

Once federal agents seized the ballots, chain of custody was blown, evidence tainted, conclusions worthless. Any crime they claim will likely be time-barred anyway. This isnโ€™t law enforcement, itโ€™s election engineering, a clumsy bid to rig the midterms and the future.

the chain of custody was broken as soon as they took the ballots, so whatever conclusion they reach will not be valid.

whatever crime they find will most likely have already postdated the statute of limitations

they're full of shit. they're trying to steal the midterms and beyond.

"Our political divisions draw us away from freedom as principle, making it harder to get to freedom as practice. They have been hardened by the collapse of local news, the rise of oligarchy, and the reach of social media."

โ€œI donโ€™t want them showing up somewhere else and doing this again"

That is EXACTLY what will happen if Senate Dems restore funding for DHS.

Withhold all funding. ABOLISH ICE and start the groundwork for prosecuting their leaders.

since they ended USAID, which has already killed thousands of people, since they put rfk jr in charge of public health, since they sent thugs to brutalize, incarcerate, and murder people outright, it's been clear to me that their goal is to kill us.

or to cull us, if you like. thin the population

This time, we know we all can stand together
With the power to be powerful
Believing we can make it better

Ooh, we're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son, oh
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?

Reminder for some folks - PARDONED does not equate to the crime not happening

The person was still CONVICTED of the crime, the punishment was however taken away

bondi seems especially well suited to this task as she really seems to relish heaping contempt on decent people.
