I approve. The kid (and probably his entire class) will have every last one of his private messages and emails related to the incident subject to discovery now.

“He was wearing a MAGA hat, which is shorthand for ‘I Hate Brown People’ or ‘White Male Power...’”

Surprise surprise, when you give a racist white kid an unearned sense of immunity and a team of highly-paid lawyers and PR professionals, he seeks to take full advantage of the grift.

Probably worth noting that the “investigation” into these chucklefucks was hired by their own archdiocese. But then again, the Catholic church does have an excellent track record in self-imposed investigations...

Nicholas Sandmann went to the rally to troll “the libs”. Period. End of story. That is reality. He successfully trolled the media and is now going to try and make it pay off in a lawsuit and media appearances. Nicholas Sandmann is a perfect representation of the right wing/ republican party today in 2019. No ideas.…

Yes, the media and pretty much everyone else jumped on this story too soon before they knew all of the facts.

“Anyway, according to Sandmann’s lawyers, this lawsuit is “only the beginning,” so it sounds like more are coming, what fun.”

“a modern-day form of McCarthyism.”

Oh, so only a little money from the NRA, but still enough to be the only democrat in the congressional top 25 in 2016, is all right if it’s Bernie.

That’s $11,000 from the fucking NRA. Enough to place him in the top 25 of all congressional candidates.

No. But I’m tired of this “Bernie is different! He’s not just a regular politician” bullshit that’s played ad nauseum by his supporters when he’s shown repeatedly that he’s really not all that different.

Well at least we can be sure that all the money St. Bernie accepts is from regular individuals and small grass roots organizations. He’s not some regular politician who’d stoop to the level of accepting money from powerful lobbying interests, especially ones whose motives are inherently evil and have caused the…

If by excuses you mean the facts she got 3 million more votes and the EC is a backwards system that has become heavily gerrymandered towards the GOP in the last decade, then you’re correct. 

Fake nice northern midwesterners. 

Just saying, man, the courts have repeatedly backed up gerrymandering. I disagree that Democrats should “play dirty.” We should push for fair, equal elections rather than using the same underhanded tactics. I think Democrats should push to eliminate gerrymandering altogether and to have impartial, non-political boards…

Ironic that the GOP’s illimitable thirst for power, blatant gerrymandering, and ignoring the will of voters while in office wasn’t enough—no, they had to accept foreign money and invite foreign powers to help them win elections as well. Which led directly to the increased scrutiny they’re under right now that will be…

jfc...

Twenty years ago I would have been absolutely certain the Board would vote for a new election. Now I’m not so sure, because our country is a trash fire.

Can we fucking not.

Nope.
