Politics And Current Events

I think anyone who lies in any official capacity in regards to national security should have the book thrown at them. That doesn't alter any current things that are considered as fact, however.

Just bc they are sleaze doesn’t mean they set up trump. I don’t think that at all. Don’t project right wing nut job stuff as things I’m implying or believe.

Are you saying I was implying that you were?

I'm still curious where the 'sleaze' moniker is coming from.

Is an attention grabbing whore a better term for you?

Because he wrote a book?

I get it. Anyone that criticizes trump means they are the greatest thing ever to some of you. They can take no criticism because they hate trump.

We all know, except for ned, that trump deserves everything that is coming to him. Maybe you guys should learn to see that some of these attention whores are dadholes and terrible people too.

What happens if I think by nature you have to be a total deviant to be a career politician, someone at the highest level? It literally has to be in your blood to operate at that kind of success.

I'm just trying to understand the nature of the criticism. Is he a 'sleaze' because he wrote a book and is promoting it? Because that just seems like a pretty big leap to me.

“... when the racist letter [Smollett received] didn’t get enough attention, he concocted the staged attack.” — sources

The brothers, breaking their silence: "We are not racist. We are not homophobic and we are not anti-Trump."

To me, there were enough red flags about the attack that is was reasonable to question its validity.

Former House speaker Dennis Hastert, who less than a decade ago stood second in line to the presidency, was sentenced to 15 months in federal prison Wednesday for a bank fraud case linked to allegations he sexually abused teen boys more than 30 years ago.

Federal Judge Thomas Durkin called Hastert, 74, a "serial child molester" and rejected a prosecutor's recommendation of six months in prison on a banking charge that carries a maximum five-year sentence.

I know this was on a fraud charge and not the molestation charges, but the prosecutor asked for 6 months?

Let her rot. Bring her son home.

I mean yeah, I feel she should pay for what she did... But she was also young and stupid and I would assume did a lot of learn'n in the last 4-5 years. I'd bring her back, give her a few years in prison, and make her help others not be so stupid. She could be an asset against that type of recruiting.

At what age are people accountable for their actions? 19 is too young for a capital crime?

The USA continues to have the worlds oldest children.

What a total cockwomble.

The implication is that Jussie Smollett thought the police had two innocent men in custody and he said he would testify against them. Only when he realized the cops got the right guys-the guys he orchestrated the hoax with-did he refuse to comply.

Kamala Harris gets to memory hole her time as the queen of mass incarceration.

Sen. Kamala Harris: "We have failed to put the resources into our public education system, and instead we are putting tons of money into a system of mass incarceration...Let's speak these truths."

She's the gift that keeps on giving. Looking forward to the hard hitting Sundance documentary about her rise to fame
