Someone please bribe the Supreme Court with a free ocean submersible ride

Yes the problem with “whataboutism” is that it can be used to dismiss any claims of double standards without further examination.

For example, here in the US we punish black murderers more harshly and more often than we do white murderers. If a black murderer tries to point out this double standard, their claims would accurately be dismissed as “whataboutism”. But when you view the system as a whole, then you can see that systemic racism is undeniable.

I’m on the fence if this type of lawsuit is actually in the interest of justice.

But one thing definitely irks me, this is the type of justice that is only doled out to enemies of the US.

Let me know when Palestinian Americans win a lawsuit against the US and Israel after an American-made, Israeli-fired bomb kills their entire family.

I guess “vote blue no matter who” only applies when you’re punching left…

In an ideal world, Hitchen’s Razor would be applied whenever a politician speaks and whenever an advertisement plays.

Unfortunately for us, human psychology makes us all vulnerable.

The problem is that the Trump and Biden camps set the rules at this debate.

The moderators were not allowed to live fact check, nor could they cut the candidate’s mic during their allotted time.

This means that the responsibility of countering Trump’s lies fell completely on Biden. There are so many lies, it would be a difficult task for any person.

But Biden signed up for this, and he failed spectacularly. None of Trump’s bullshit was effectively countered.

I think its only a RBG situation if Biden dies soon.

It’s more of a Diane Feinstein situation, where everyone can see the dementia progressing, but everyone around them has a vested interest in keeping the status quo.

Arredondo was taken into custody at the Uvalde County Jail Thursday afternoon, where family members and parents of several victims of the shooting gathered.

Finally, some good fucking news.

Why is this news and upvoted now? They have been running these disclaimers for a long time.

I believe they started running disclaimers after Fox, Dominion reach $787M settlement over election claims which happened last April.

Yes your quote really drives home my point. They wrote the debate qualifications specifically so that rfkjr wouldnt make the cut.

From what I understand, he will probably qualify for the ballot in all 50 states. Since this debate is happening unusually early, his ballot access has not been certified yet.

I dont feel strongly about rfk, it’s probably better for America that he is not on that stage. But this is just one more example of how our two political parties operate in a corrupt, anti-democratic way. They have no principles nor morals, its power politics all the way down.

Rfkjr is literally crazy, yes, but it’s hard to deny the fact that the debate qualification rules were written specifically to exclude him.

The fact that theres 175k convictions in a smaller state is rather shocking.

Think about all that effort by judges, DAs, police, corrections, etc. All of these people, paid by taxpayers, could have been tasked with doing something beneficial to society. Instead they participated in a counterproductive, racist, braindead prohibition scheme. What a waste.

He hasn’t changed his stance, hes doing the bare minimum to garner positive headlines in an election year.

He needs to actually change stances if he wants to prevent another Trump presidency.

Alright most of this slang is overused and a bit outdated but wtf is “jitz”?
