The only reason it has broad bipartisan support is because it's largely symbolic. 

Wow that’s great where my health care reform? Where is the raise in the min wage. Even $12 an hour would be better than nothing. Come on. 

It’s almost like they don’t give a shit about the rest of us.

The wealthy only care about accumulating more wealth. The guy’s corpse is going into the grave reaching for the mortician’s wallet.

Seems to be a few details missing here. For example, there were a number of labs existing under the same roof. One of those labs is run by the Chinese military. There were also labs there that were not of as high security as the one that was specifically studying the horseshoe bat. So, in fact, common areas exist where…

Every lilly-white branch of law enforcement needs to be cleaned out from top to bottom! This includes police and sheriff departments, state troopers, FBI, etc. You can also include the military. They’ve been infiltrated by white supremacists, Nazi’s and the like. They have the weapons, badges, and the bloodthirsty…

You got it. He’s a snake. Not a wild snake hiding in the grass hunting for his own food. He’s a big fat snake in a tank with a plastic heating pad. Rich people feed him frozen mice to keep him satisfied.

Took me a while to figure out what this guy was up to. I found out that the voting rights bill also had language in it about limiting the influence of lobbyists.

I guess the extremely rigorous screening process used to employ police officers failed this one time.

the department was made aware of the now-deleted Facebook comments

No more so than automatically rejecting anything the US intelligent community says on the matter and taking up the opposing position. When the US intelligence agencies stated that the virus was not man-made or genetically modified, did you reject that finding too?

Good. I hope that more local state-based activists can continue to connect with people there, and prompt them to action, including demonstrations like this-- shame him into voting to support voting rights.. or else face a credible rise of a primary challenger.

Who cares where it came from, we all just need to know it certainly ain’t the last.

DOJ should shut these places down and given every local PD a federal background check every year.

A *complete* waste of resources? If a failure of lab containment protocol, led to the release of a deadly virus into the population you don’t think that might be even a *little bit* useful to know? Like, maybe in the context of “Oh, that’s how it got out, maybe we better make sure we don’t do that again” sense? If it…

These mofos.

The guy didn’t even have the balls to attend the democratic luncheon with the reps from Texas. Just a fucking dickless coward.

It’s going to be a relief to various local Georgia PD departments to know that the voter suppression will help them as well as state and national Republican officials.

Five officers with the Savannah Police Department were fired on Monday after a man died while in their custody.

Wherever it started, the way it was handled by Western Nations and selfish idiots who can’t even be bothered the tiniest bit to try to prevent it’s spread was fucking pathetic.   That’s the FAR bigger issue.
