you can just feel the healing and unity

Biden’s nominee to be the assistant Attorney General in charge of civil rights, is a woman named Kristin Clarke.

While at Harvard, Clarke said that a chemical called melanin, gives blacks “greater physical, mental, and spiritual abilities” than other races.

Soon, the person who said that, will be writing civil rights laws.

we are all shocked you give her a pass. so Brett Kavanaugh drinking beer in high school should be used against him, not what a democrat says in college. sounds fair.

very recently, she said it was “madness” for the federal government to side with Asian college applicants who were irrefutably discriminated against because of their ethnicity ( it’s in the article). what do you think of the justice department’s head of civil
rights, not caring when asian americans are discriminated against?

doesn’t it start to paint a picture of someone who has a serious racial chip on her shoulder?

This question highlights Jeff’s lack of consistency. My guess is he is thinking apples and oranges.

he’s perfectly, 100% consistent.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Two prominent leftist journalists have a rational discussion on the media's part in dividing us.

see.....

Speaker Pelosi names Rep. Swalwell to return to the Homeland Security Committee...

Swalwell, who is also on the House Intelligence Committee and is slated to serve as an impeachment manager...

Swalwell likened President Trump to terrorist leader Usama bin Laden in an interview earlier this week...

He’s also been referring to multiple Republican lawmakers as the "Coup Klux Klan" and accusing others of being associated with "terrorists"...

Swalwell was having sex with a communist chinese spy....


this makes him the ideal democrat....

Conflicting reports but a small folding pocketknife doesn’t justify 7 shots mostly in the back. Don’t even know if it was open.

I'm a true believer that evil comes in many forms; that the worst evil is not what one person can do, but rather what evil they can inspire OTHERS to do, in their name.
And so, I'm sharing a string of tweets, by Ezra Klein, an American journalist. He tweeted:
"I want to be careful in how I say this bc obviously you can't just break into the Capitol and desecrate offices and hit police officers with pipes (and smear feces on the walls.) People should be arrested. But I don't think they should be our focus."
"These people were lied to, over and over by officials at the highest levels of the American government, by people with power, and presumably, knowledge. They trusted the President, and Republican members of Congress, to tell them the truth, and they believed what they were being told."
"And what they were told was that a crime of astonishing proportion had been committed - Power over the U. S. Government itself had been stolen, in broad daylight. And the thieves were just going to get away with it. (They were told that Electoral politics had failed.
"They were told this by the President. By the House minority leader. By more than a dozen senators. By more than 100 U.S. representatives. By anchors on Fox News. By nationally syndicated radio hosts. (and by conspiracy theorists, like QAnon.)
And then, the President asked them to show up and fight for their country."
"I'm not here to release anyone from personal accountability for their actions. But the real villains here are the people in power who lied to those who trusted them, putting them and the country in danger, for personal and political gain."
"The worst consequences should be for THEM - and all who conspired to enable them - not for their marks.
If we're going to hold those who invaded the Capitol accountable, and we SHOULD, then we need to hold those who convinced them to invade the Capitol, accountable.

There’s still video

During the last 100 hours of the Trump administration, the capital has been sealed off and flooded with 25,000 military troops to keep the president’s own supporters from attacking and disrupting the transfer of power. America can never forget that.
