I'd like to see less misogyny, racism and ad homs and more 'meat and taters' type stuff that would hold up in criminal proceedings for the toadies and sycophants infesting the administration

We need to start locking these people up for tax evasion.

Well, because of Reagan, and a SCOTUS in that time and mostly GOP controlled house and senate in that time, and deregulation, things like this are possible. All the GOP does is write laws to make this type of greed possible.

So much for draining the swamp. Apparently by 'draining the swamp' he meant filling it with even more nasty predators.

And piled on top is today's indictment of Congressman Chris Collins....a notorious WLB asslicker... for insider trading.  They are all crooks.

I agree, but the problem is that the people who would be subject to such prosecution have a long history of using their wealth to ensure that their actions are never, ever deemed illegal. Remember kiddos, it's not a crime if you call it "tax avoidance"... yay for unfettered Capitalism!

Stats convinced me long ago that that the fiscal and physical harm caused by "white collar" crime far exceeds the harm caused by "street" crime. And yet, the criminal justice system is disproportionately focused on street crime. It's why I tend to tune out any conservative politician who campaigns on a law and order platform. If they were really interested in justice, they'd go after obvious shams like the DeVos clan are engaged in.

Distract the populous by punching down, as you horde all the money at the expense of crashing the economy. And somehow it works. They yell about how universal healthcare is going to turn us into Venezuela, as they shovel billions and billions of dollars into the military budget. The country is an oligarchy, and a lot of people are fine with it.
