GOP 2020: Life begins at conception, and ends at birth.

Eye-Tal-e-ans

I read that paragraph. I also read these two:

The article you sent me stated that the Feds still require a reasonable suspicion, but routinely ignore the law. It also states that the Supreme Court has held that such stops at immigration checkpoints are legal, so long as they are limited to a brief inquiry to residency status. I guess the law is fluid here.  

I know you’re an immigration attorney and this is the law as it stands, but what exactly is the government interest in justifying these checkpoints (even if the search is conducted within 100 miles of an international border)? My knowledge of checkpoints is pretty much limited to the context of DWIs, where there is a

I know Texas recently legalized DWI checkpoints, but they have to at least have a reasonable suspicion to justify a Terry stop. It doesn’t matter if they’re stopping everyone heading down that road.

Curious, how does one accomplish this without racial profiling?

So cops want protections on the same level as race based discrimination, subject to strict scrutiny analysis. They’re asking to be more protected under law than women, homosexuals, or just about any other person they’re sworn to protect. Never mind that even without the help of the legislature, they still benefit

A quick google search will give you the basics: but here’s an older article:

Oooh! Sounds like fun! Can I join in?

The last time the Democrats had sustainable, meaningful power, it was through a coalition of workers unions, community activists, minorities, blue collar laborers, farmers, intellectuals, and urban political machines. That fell apart once RFK was assassinated. Since then, the democrats have just assumed that these

That burn was so hot it seared my eyes like tuna steaks. Or the prez’s eyes from staring directly at the sun.

Christ, this cronyism knows no bounds. Why don’t we just take their money? The proper channels no longer seem to flow.

Trump: “If you don’t like me, you should sanction me!”

Like an inverse Cincinnatus, having failed to destroy the nation he loved so dearly, Bannon returned to his farm in Texas or some bumblefuck area, only to be strangled by declining ad revenue failing to support his abortion of a media company.

Psst! These statues were never erected to honor confederate leaders. They were erected to intimidate black people struggling for civil rights during Jim Crow. Pass it on!

True, but that’s not the point I was trying to make. If you have an unbiased news agency that’s primarily funded by the state, it becomes subject to the whims of the state. Given our political environment, this leaves a hypothetical NPR-on-steroids with the inenviable choice of (a) becoming a propaganda arm for the

The Federal government is attempting to slash their funding, partially on the grounds that some elements of our legislature and executive consider them to be biased news sources.

But does that really resolve the issue? Say if ABC gives us an hour of pure, unadulterated, balls to the walls David Muir each night, will that prevent executives from attempting to influence his broadcasts by infusing their own opinions? Fox News didn’t become what it was at the behest of advertisers; rather, the
