William Lamberth, a Tennessee state representative, asked students protesting gun violence which gun they’d like him to use when shooting them: “If there’s a firearm out there you’re comfortable being shot with, please show me which one it is.”

The Fox channel on these resident tvs be spouting all sorts of fake news.

Peter Wehner, conservative contributing editor for The Atlantic, recently referred to Donald Trump as a 'mob boss'. He has since walked back that comment, saying, 'That comparison turned out to have been insulting to mob bosses everywhere.'

I'm reminded of how, several mass shootings ago, one troll openly declared that he believed that the average person has the right to shoot somebody, but that there's no right to not get your head blown off. This incident has erased any doubts in my minds that the Republican politicians who consistently refuse to allow gun control of any kind secretly agree with that statement.

And I guess that in a few terms, they'll be outright arguing it, if not actually putting it into practice.

Agreed
Cant remember mob a boss needlessly incriminating himself as much as DJT....well Gotti maybe, who ironically probably suffered from similar mental condition(s).

An article supposedly explaining where Melania stands with regard to her cheating jerk of a husband.  But my favorite part of the article is below.  

Melania’s former aide explains her indictment day absence: ‘She isn’t leaving him’ (msn.com)

The former president also did not mention her directly during his post-arraignment address at his Palm Beach residence, reported the New York Post.

“I have a great family and they’ve done a fantastic job and we appreciate it very much. They’ve gone through a lot,” the 76-year-old said.
“I have a son here [Don Jr] who has done a great job, another son here [Eric] who has done a great job, and Ivanka,” said Mr Trump. “And Barron will be great someday,” he said, referring to his teenage son with the former first lady. “He is tall and he is smart.”


It appears the boys are all great or will be great.  Seems a daughter is missing from the list.  And woo-hoo...Barron is tall!

And yet Melania stood by Trump when he called Mexicans “rapists,” when he mocked a disabled reporter, when he bragged about grabbing women “by the p*ssy,” when he said there were “very fine people” on “both sides” of a Nazi rally...

For decades, Justice Clarence Thomas has secretly accepted luxury trips from a major Republican donor, newly obtained documents and interviews show.

The extent and frequency of these apparent gifts to Thomas has no known precedent in modern SCOTUS history.

From what I know about the mafia, they do what they can to avoid incriminating against themselves or each other.

I always thought a better point of comparison would be a wrestling heel. Think about it, what other profession would let you get away with traveling to a city and then publicly insulting the people who live there?







And unlike Rick Rude, Trump somehow got people to agree with him.

I've long believed that Thomas was the worse justice on the court, and this just cements my opinion.  Not only does he seem to show disdain for the people of the U.S. in his opinions, this shows he is a grifter.
