  • Of course the criminal justice system is not just. Ask any poor person who’s gone through the process and they’ll tell you the same thing. Ask defense lawyers how often prosecutors, cops, and judges either lie or bend the law to work in their favor. This is old news.

    What’s more specific about this case is that the attorney general could have proceeded rapidly following January 6th and he didn’t, and that’s disgusting. Because it’s not like nobody saw this coming.


  • What’s funny is that your comment doesn’t even make sense. I think most Democrat voters would honestly happily say that if you think Biden broke the law too, then go prosecute him.

    For people who plan on following the law, there is no double standard, there is no hypocrisy. And when people focus on hypocrisy it typically means that they endorse criminal activity, and they’re just upset that someone else might get away with it when they can’t.








  • All of those things you posted sound good, but if you look at the details and execution, it’s either a pathetically laughable attempt or something they should have done 3 years ago.

    Prosecute companies for wage theft.

    Start splitting up monopolies at the beginning of your presidency or vice presidency, not at the end.

    Don’t destroy the train union and then pretend that you’re pro-union because you went to one picket line. And as I recall, it was Joe who went.

    When you push for non-competes or you push for student loan forgiveness, and the Republicans find legal ways to stop your efforts, find other legal ways to continue your efforts. If you just shrug your shoulders and say we tried, but we couldn’t make your lives better, of course nobody is going to think that you meant a word you said.

    The Democrat said 4 years to deliver, or at least to show that they tried very hard to deliver, and they chose to do neither of those. Which is sad.

    And if Harris is telling us what she wants to do in the future, we’re immediately going to ask why she and Joe didn’t already do it in the past. When we don’t get an answer, we just shrug our shoulders. It’s more of the same from Washington politicians. Democrats in Washington certainly represent somebody, but that somebody isn’t you and me.










  • It’s legally unclear if he’s able to pardon himself for state crimes. He’s the president of the United States, not the president of New York.

    But I hope he tries to pardon himself for anything, just so we can get this before the Supreme Court, because I think they would side with him but I sure want to see it play out. In reality he’s in such bad health and so old that I think he’s probably going to die before he would face any prison time, so the best we can hope for is that the Supreme Court makes greater fools of themselves, or somehow miraculously surprises us and does the right thing, which I don’t expect but you know it’s theoretically possible.
