RIGHT ONNN BECAUSE JUSTICE MATTERS
There won’t be a rep party left
Good luck, so far the batting average sucks
They still can’t let go of Trump.
@Aaron Goff lol these aren’t my opinions… These are the opinions and conclusions of LIFE LONG hardcore republicans who are hemorrhaging out of the party since November… Democrats are by no means perfect but they have not fundamentally broken American democracy over the course of the last two decades. Mitch mcconnell alone is single handedly the biggest reason that the country is where it is right now.
@NorebThere was an incident when a Bernie Sanders supporter opened fire on Republican officials (nearly killing one) at a charity softball game. Apparently “inspired” by Sanders’ comments on health care, and how Republicans basically didn’t care if people were dying. Should Sanders be blamed for that? Do his supporters condone violence? Should I just assume any liberal or Leftist committing a heinous act is indicative of everyone who votes left? I don’t think it’s fair to demonize a group of people based solely on the fact you might not agree with them, yet you’re doing that very thing. With ZERO accountability apparently on the Democrats, who also contributed greatly to the corroded state of politics. I would give your “objective” argument more credence, if let’s say, you applied the same standard of objectivity across the board. Which apparently you don’t. But I’ve seen that sort of mindsight on both sides of the political aisle. Now is the time for the Democrats to show how their ideas and policies are better for the country. Instead, they go after a former President who has no power. Hence, the straw man. Want to shut up the nay-sayers? Then show how your policies are better. You can’t accuse one side of being ignorant, rabid, petulant children while behaving like ignorant, rabid, petulant children. And vindictive to boot!
@Aaron Goff no youre just a child. Good luck with your warped sense of reality.
@Noreb Good luck with your sense of “objective” opinion lol. Ending a discussion with an insult. Very intellectual, indeed. Just proves my point. Alright, guess one of us has to take the higher ground. G’night. Take care.
@Aaron Goff kool story kid.
He still hungry , he want to bite more…?
Oh, here come the race grifters, doing the only thing they know how to do…
Huh?
@Roger Out Groups like the NAACP and the ADL push the narrative of racism and cry until they can extort money from the rest of us. They are parasites.
fis that

oh good
WE ARE still here for TRUMP
These people are demented
You would think that a proper news agency would have looked into weather or not the NAACP has standing.
The NAACP has no “standing”
Your opinion..the courts will decide
Counter sue for rigging evidence, fraud, lieing in court, etc. Did this guy do or say or imply anything that could be considered inciting?
If so impeach him.
GET OVER IT!!! HE JUST WANTS HIS MINUTES OF FAME!! IT WILL TURN OUT THE SAME AND HE WILL INCRIMINATE HIMSELF.. LMAO
So this means we can sue BLM and antifa great let’s go they got lots of money from the democrats we sure could use to help this country instead of bailing out criminals
Sure, go ahead
Way past time the NAACP and Bennie get Removed from their Parents Basement. And if they need Money they can WORK.
NAACP???Who or what is this defunct organization??
I would like rep Thompson to explain how this was meant to disfranchise b lack voters And how he came to this conclusion to me this sounds so much like a conspiracy theory
The trespassers’ argument was that illegally-cast ballots should not be counted, so I guess Thompson’s position is that black voters cast illegal ballots and therefore would be disenfranchised?
They’re scared. They really wanna loose 2022 and 2024
NAACP…are they still a thing and why? I thought we were trying to get past racism.
Can’t wait for republicans to sue some dems, including Kampala, for the 1 billion in damages, property destruction, and injuries from black lives matter riots.
