Well the story about Will Smith was in the news longer than a Supreme Court Justice's wife trying to steal a democratic election.
Oh and Will Smith faced more consequences too.

and yet you won’t comment on congressional democrats trying to steal a democratic election in 2016.
why is that?
your opposition to trying to steal fair elections, is politically selective. Which means it’s fake.
if you’re ok with democrats trying to steal elections after the fact, you don’t get to cry when republicans try to do it.

oh, yiu keep harping about the insulin bill.
i’m addition to calling prices of insulin, the bill also gave the feds a lot more control on setting prices of other drugs. that’s the provision that republicans mostly objected to.
you’re being extremely and consistently dishonest about such things.

WE pay by far the highest prices in the world for medical care with far from the best results.
Why?

Please list the places which have the "best results", and compare the racial diversity of those places, with the racial diversity of America.
It's a little easier to achieve good health care results in a small country thats 90% racially homogeneous.
We have 330 million people, we are racially diverse, and we have a wide open southern border. Those things have consequences.

it’s the fact that the US allows huge numbers of penniless, unskilled people in. many other countries don’t do that.

Jen Psaki said that doesn’t matter, because they aren’t here for very long. she actually said that.
there’s no talking to these people, it’s not possible.

I never said we did. Read what I wrote.
This is what you constantly do. I post something, then you claim I posted some extreme, nonsensical gibberish.
here's what I posted - "the US allows huge numbers of penniless, unskilled people in. many other countries don’t do that."
How could you possibly go from there, to "we have the highest percentage of immigrants"?
You're always responding to something I didn't come close to saying...

Pete said other countries have "batter results". I've asked him several times for a list of those countries, and strangely he refuses to provide it, unless I missed it.
Why do you think he made the claim, then won't provide the list?
Liberals like to point to Scandanavia of how we should be. I'm assuming that's what he was referring to, I could be wrong. Those countries have a lot of oil which they don't ignore like we do, and they don't let in millions and millions of unskilled immigrants.
We're a huge country that has a massive and wide-open border with Mexico. You need to take that into account when you compare our results to other countries.

Feel free to google healthcare costs, results and immigrant populations in the top twenty countries.
The USA is consistently falling behind while increasing cost per capita
It’s not the “brown people”

It's not?
You're saying whites aren't generally healthier in the US, than blacks and Hispanics? Because if they are healthier, than it is indeed non-whites who keep the results from being better.
It's cultural. Liberalism keeps these people alive, but in horrific situations, and you almost have to believe it's blatantly intentional. Liberalism increases dependency on welfare, robs them of the innate desire to thrive, causes insane rates of fatherlessness, coddles drug users, etc...All kinds of negative health effects from that culture.

Pretty telling when you say that brown people “ You're saying whites aren't generally healthier in the US, than blacks and Hispanics? Because if they are healthier, than it is indeed non-whites who keep the results from being better.”
And the reason is “liberals”
Pretty much fits what the rest of the Aryan Brotherhood claims

Tell me what I said, which is incorrect.
Are whites not generally healthier than hispanics and blacks? Yes or no?
I'm not saying that's good. I'm saying that's the current reality.
Do you disagree?

Now you’re claiming that there’s a factual basis for critical race theory?
Or it’s genetic?
Maybe phrenology?

No, it's because of cultural life style differences. Middle class blacks that have similar life styles in food, etc. to middle class whites have fairly the same results as the whites.
Lower class whites that have similar life styles in diet etc. to lower class blacks have similar health outcomes to the Blacks.
If you claim that cultural lifestyles are "systems" or "systemic" than there is a systemic reason for different levels of health . . . and it's not race based.

Ok, I asked you three times if whites are generally healthier than non whites in the US, you won't answer. Because in addition to being a lunatic and a liar, you're an unbelievable coward.
Add me to the long, long list of people who will ignore you.
Think hard about John's supposition if you need help.

Back to the coup
Newly uncovered texts show Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) begging the Trump White House for talking points to justify stealing the election in November 2020: “Please give me something to work with. I just need to know what I should be saying. Please tell me what I should be saying.”

Another Republican
“If POTUS allows this to occur... we’re driving a stake in the heart of the federal republic...”
That’s a text from Rep. Chip Roy (R-Tex.) to Trump’s chief of staff Mark Meadows in the days before Congress was going to certify Biden’s win.
Roy argued in texts that Trump’s attempts to overturn his loss on Jan. 6 was undemocratic. “We’re driving a stake in the heart of the federal republic,” he said. It’s the same argument the Jan. 6 committee is making now.
Seeing I agree with these 2 Republicans they must be rinos

so why was it ok for maxine waters and a few other congressional democrats, to try to overturn Trumps 2016 win in some states, in their attempt to give the 2016 win to hilary? there was zero evidence of wrongdoing in those states, but they tried. Even Joe Biden told them to stop, he said the 2016 election was over. He was right.
i think what trump did was awful. i think what the congressional
democrats did was awful. i think it’s awful when any of our representatives try to overturn our votes
you only think it’s awful when republicans do it. which means your outrage is politically selective, which means it’s fake.

John Eastman is the father of the fraudulent electors scheme.
Twenty years ago, before SCOTUS stepped in, the Florida GOP was planning to use it to nullify their citizens' votes if Al Gore won the election.
And Eastman was helping them plan it.
