Just watched a 9th Circuit Court case where a DOJ attorney argued that kids in detention didn’t need soap, toothbrushes, blankets or beds. Who are we hiring as attorneys in the DOJ, and when did America ever let their policy deteriorate to this level? Oh yes, when Trump became president.
If I, as a mother, refused to bathe, clothe, provide medical care, or a proper sleep environment, my children would be taken away from me by the state. When the federal government does this to hundreds of children and infants, it’s considered policy.
Trump and his people lie so consistently that I don’t know if I believe them when they say the drone never went into Iran.
Why are the Democrats coming up with plans to make sure they don’t get in the White House? They have to stop giving money away to everyone.
Kellyanne Conway said after a week of trying to figure out what the Hatch Act is “Not even clear what Hatch Act allows. But I haven’t violated it.” How would you know that you didn’t violate it if you don’t know what it is? Are you sure that she has a legitimate law degree or did someone buy her one too?
Please stop your squawking about “hate comments” in Quickly. I can understand that having your political views destroyed with facts would be so annoying. But hearing factual data is not the same thing as being a hater. It’s all in the perception, I guess.
Trump is very predictable — his reactionary incompetence in both crisis and negotiation handling is bumbling at best. He has no wins and is batting 0 for 20.
No, this is not Mayberry, but what exactly has happened around here that any law enforcement officer needed am AR-15 or AK-47 rifle?
More to my point that this is Northwest Indiana, and not Fallujah: police officers are civilian public servants, not an occupying military force. The police are there to protect and serve the public good; not to wield their might against insurgency. As such, police officers should dress like police officers in police uniforms, not like soldiers in combat fatigues. They should dress like peace officers, which they are; not warriors, which they are not.
The picture of all the garbage left behind at Camp Trump is indicative of all the garbage touted at his campaign rally.
I always get a big kick out of these wealthy white boys that eventually get caught up in their underhanded corruptions. They whine like little kids, that someone had the nerve to actually catch them doing something wrong. Their wealthy parents and their attorneys “take care” of everything for so long, that they think it will always be like that.
On Friday, the courts released the texts between Sean Hannity and Paul Manafort. That was some of the best comedy that I have read in years. It was amazing that there isn’t massive bruising on their backs from all of the patting.
Trump thinks it is quite unfair for him to be impeached. Hasn’t anyone realized yet that his idea of “fair” is him getting everything he wants without anyone standing in his way, or saying anything bad about it at all? Thinking like a toddler again.
