Because, you know, when black people raise their voices in concern, it's because we're being irrational and complaining about not getting enough special treatment and free stuff.
It really is, they are basically cornered wounded animals which mean they are going to do whatever it takes to save their asses.
Think about it. They are looking into their own intelligence agencies in order to discredit them. They want ammo for the upcoming election. What kinds of leaders do this?
Why do I have a feeling that these two sources are downplaying the upcoming testimony because that's exactly what it feels like to me lol
"You brought a roll of paper towels to the cook out, didn't ya, Mitch?"
Yeah, it's clearer and clearer that Great Awokening theory might not apply uniformly to white liberals or at all to center-left Democrats.
They have control of the offices needed to generate fraudulent charges to use for butter emails 2.0 at will, or to straight-up lock up political opponents and dare the courts to stop them
Not just political opponents. People currently working in the DOJ. Their own people.
Smh. Really hope that the people defending her open their eyes.
That's a possibility, but if the Strzok non-indictment is anything to go by, they aren't getting friendly DC juries for their bullshit and making up evidence whole cloth against agencies paid to root-out actual smart criminal conspiracies will be tough.
what on earth is a democratic candidate doing on hannity reciting jim jordan's talking points.
pelosi, do something
pelosi, do something
Not true. The mainstream deep state media is choosing not to report ir.
You can't do something. It's not worth it. She wants someone to do something. She wants to be the victim. She knows her 10 minutes in the party are almost up, and she's gonna line up that sweet Fox News gig on her way out.
Some of these people considered the DNC and whoever the eventual nominee is worse than Trump.
Makes their paper look stupid tbh.
Having the rest of the WaPo Editorial Board proverbially body-slamming Marc Thiessen whenever he opens his mouth almost makes me want WaPo to keep him.
...
...almost.
The Right Wing Machine Behind The Scenes cannot take advantage of actual scandal now. They only see and concoct ones out of thin air or make mountains out of molehills. Wonder where they got that from.
Yes, I mean, Barr is on Plan F here, and 90% of what he's done since he got there is conspiracy theory firehose (cuz the administration is propped up on conspiracy theories right now) but this does have a nasty whiff of it mixing with that OTHER 10% he does, like shut down SDNY investigations into Individual-1's finance probe or blow off whistleblower recommendations.
But they need to have a reason right?
I mean what good is it going to do going after Obama Administration people? They are not in government anymore. I really don't think they are going to lock up Obama.
And they can't lock up Biden either. Unless they do a probe into his son's Ukraine stuff then I guess they could...
Yeah, even talking about this is bonkers. But I guess it's not unexpected. Trump has threatened to lock up his political opponents since his debate with Hillary, and probably even before that. I guess it's not surprising as we head into election year that he starts to act on it. The question is, how far will he go?
Schumer's shiteating smirk is amazing. McConnell doesn't even know what to do with himself there lol.
I see that Mitch is upset but I wonder if he truly understands why
Does he understand how most of the country thinks he's an obstructionist asshole who played a huge role in ushering in this era of hyperpartisanship
Or does he think he just has a bad reputation for reasons that aren't his fault and that's why he's crying when no one wants to shake his hand
The DoJ does not need to have a predicate to make an investigation criminal.
So basically just open up multiple investigations because reasons so they can indict and potentially arrest someone
how is this person a Democrat? Is there any other democrat that goes on fox opinion shows?
You do realize that CA-25 has encompassed different locations over the years, right? It hasn't always included parts of Los Angeles and Ventura. In 1993, the era you describe, it contained A LOT of red territory, explaining its Republican lean. This principle applies to congressional districts in general: they keep the same number but don't always include the same locations in the state after redistricting.
The CA-25 we're discussing has only existed and been in effect since 2012, and it is NOT a heavily Republican district.
Having the rest of the WaPo Editorial Board proverbially body-slamming Marc Thiessen whenever he opens his mouth almost makes me want WaPo to keep him.
...
...almost.
they're literally paying a dude to lie and the response "republicans are wrong too" is maybe not the best retort to a literal lie
Basically. Even if they don't go full Gestapo (which... Barr's opining about how Good, Actually a Christian theocracy would be this month makes me think they have no qualms doing so), they can muddy the waters by having all sorts of reports about criminal investigations about x, y, or z. I think the media is getting better about this but I don't trust that their love of the horse race won't end up winning out.
Lol normalize the DOJ turning into the USA Gestapo to push the horse race narrative so CNN can make more money
Yeah... count on it
The more I think about it the more I am worried not only about 2020 but the country's future. This kind of environment is not viable long term. Even if Dems win next year... if this is always the alternative, we are eternally fucked.
And yeah Barr's statement about the lack of faith or whatever in this country was weird. I mean sure have your opinion and feelings on that. But you're the AG not a theocratic leader.
Not if Bernie has anything to say about it.
The only person saying Tulsi is relevant is Tulsi herself. (And Bernie.)
It's a grift. She's cut from the same cloth as this administration.
Doubtful. Eternity is a really long time.
But it's going to get worse before it ever gets better, for sure. The last gasps of white power are going to linger for decades. (I think the only question is whether or not there's enough time for things to get better before our species goes extinct; I wouldn't put any real money on it.)

Can you imagine them barring a candidate that meets all their thresholds? People would never shup about it
How many times has she been on FOX News, or just Tucker's show in the past month? It feels like a bunch, just even if we go by the tweet clips linked in here.
The only reason we even have these thresholds (and Tulsi at all TBH) is because of Bernie.
The DNC's mistake was accommodating sore losers. Now we're stuck with this dumb primary.
You'll need the cash to buy Ron Paul Freedom Vittles™ before SHTF
As a white person this makes no sense though. Things are going to change no matter what they do. I think some men just want to watch the world burn and Barr is one of them
American society was built largely as an exclusionary construct, by white people, for white people.
It's a reaction to losing power and losing your place in society. As long as you can keep the minorities beneath you, you remain on top, where you've always been told you belong.
That's why they'll gladly burn everything down, as long as it burns minorities even just a little more. It's not a rational reaction, but it does make sense. And until the power is taken from them and they lose all ability to reclaim it, this is what they will keep trying to do.
But it's not a fight they can ultimately win (unless they succeed in destroying everything first, and we all just die off).
