This is part of what “defund the police” is shorthand for, in addition to diverting resources to non-police assistance for things that absolutely don’t need to involve police officers.

No, true, I get it. You’re probably right. The immediate gratification of doing that wouldn’t have necessarily outweighed the longterm career (and legal) effects, though I bet it would’ve been immensely gratifying.

He claims he has the most transparent administration in history. He’s sort of correct. Everyone with half a brain can see right through what they are trying to do.

What I love is that the blame has now shifted from protesters to Tulsa’s law enforcement, who “had overreacted, making it difficult for supporters to gain entry.” Pointing your finger every which way is a sure sign of a successful event.

Don’t forget all the whining about the “fake” polls then trying to sue networks for said polls saying he’s trailing bigly.

One of the gifts that keeps on giving with donnie’s followers (the brotherhood of the bone spurs) is they apparently think they are ‘owning’ and ‘triggering’ with their tragically moronic rants. Reality is when people who aren’t fucking imbeciles listen, mouth agape, they wonder how someone could be that fucking…

Also from Tom Morello. Pretty sure “davez67" is former House Speak Paul Ryan: 

While true, and I’m not trying to defend Ridley Scott here because I didn’t really ever want 1 aliens prequel, let alone 3, but only 3 of those movies are his and he’s apparently ignoring the ones that aren’t.

Wasn’t that what Prometheus was supposed to answer? Why’d he bother making it if it didn’t address any of that?

I don't use Twitter at all, but I kinda love the fact that Trump & his cronies are actually using Twitter to complain about how bad Twitter is.

YOOOOO you should definitely watch Merlin

Man, I know slightly better than average high school players who have coaches in their DMs making all types of promises, telling them to lie about their address so they can change schools, etc.  I cannot IMAGINE what has been given and promised to someone like Zion Williamson. And if his parents knew how to play the…

totally, but Duke is the pinnacle of “my shit dont stink”.

LOL, the phrase “decorum and decency” has never, ever been used to describe any action of the current president.

I care insofar as it ruins Coach K fake image of running this clean program at Duke. Fuck that guy. 

Reading that quote again... How were his actions not “malicious” in light of remarks like that? It wasn’t a “lapse in judgement,” it was deciding to be an asshole and fuck with an event. And as for “apologizing,” I don’t believe him. You can’t just say your sorry when you that blatantly broke the rules, you’re just…

They’ll just chalk it up to “God’s Will” or some such bullshit and completely ignore their part in all this.

I own plenty of guns, as a centrist who tends to swing left on alot of things, even. My father has, being a Sheriff years ago in Oregon and a big game hunter in Washington and Alaska. My grandfather did too, being in the 508th 82nd Airborne and parachuting over Normandy.

It is certainly a protest centered around “empowerment”, but I don’t think it was truly threatening. I’m actually involved in North Carolina politics so I can speak specifically to the gun-wielding protesters there, not Michingan, but our sergeant-at-arms weren’t actually nervous about violence. There are and have…

No, they remember the fancy Doctor Lady up there, telling us all how genius the president has been so far.
