My first post since coming over from Twitter. Man, that place has turned toxic. I run a law firm in Chicago and am CEO of an interesting technology startup in the real estate space. I look forward to following some of my fav here, and hope to add to the conversation, whether the topic may be.
OMFG, they are still in the Haitians eating dogs and cats thing, even AFTER Vance admitted he and Trump made it up? Dumbest, most reactionary, manipulative and fear-driven people ever.
Republicans have a bill to deport immigrants who attack dogs. Goldman moves to have it renamed to: The Kristi Noem Canine Relief Act

I am usually pretty unmoved by the president's failures of decorum, because I find it creepy that people are generally unmoved by fucked up presidential shit if it's discussed in a tasteful manner and everyone adheres to fancy, historic norms, but that "Quiet, Piggy" shit was something.

Not the flex he thinks it is. He is acknowledging that his operation is both racist and retaliatory. Defense attorneys will have a ball with this video.
Bovino: "Whether they were criminals or individuals that were taking jobs from Americans -- you name it, that's what they were doing. And I'll tell you what's gonna happen. We're gonna go even harder on the streets. If he releases those 650, we're gonna apprehend 1,650 on the streets of Chicago."

My Jewish friends who are ok with this nonsense are going to need to explain to me why they are ok with their faith and history being manipulatively weaponized like this.

These are the same people who dress up in tactical gear, (poorly) wield weapons of war on American streets, and act like tough guys.
This s some of the weakest, whiniest shit I have ever heard. Onions and mustard coming out of bread? Trying to compare that to an explosion? STFU.

I used to say this trial was a waste of taxpayer dollars, but I think it’s totally worth it.
Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."

The gaslighting is off the charts. I’m not a fan of throwing around terms like good and evil. It feels like an emotionally manipulative way to frame things. But this shit is straight up evil. To make a decision to starve people and then lie about the cause and ask for their vote is really something.

Multiple senior Trump officials are moving onto military bases.
That’s not normal behavior. So ask yourself, is it really about their safety, or is the stage being set for something bigger?

I’m not saying voter fraud doesn’t happen. It does, and it is wrong. But it is also typically statistically insignificant.
