FBI - you're blowing it! I will never trust you again, after your raid of Georgia's election office. Why should I trust anything you ever say again? You are throwing away 118 years of trust.

Remember how useless it was to have Trump remove his son in law, who just morphed to a new job? That's what firing Miller would do. No change in policy, and he's still hanging upside down in a closet in the White House.

Stop the Democrats from Compromising again! Damn it, we want the laws followed, not some compromise of firing an advisor or two. Stop with these "clever" halfway measures. Defund ICE now.

A lot of us warned our post 9/11 apparatus would be used exactly this way.

Giving equal time to opposing views should mean multiple different views, not just two. You don't give only one other side, you need to give all sides. You shouldn't assume every issue has 2 sides, which reinforces binary thinking, and conserves the two party system's control.

Every losing bettor thinks the game was rigged.
I pointed out this before widespread gambling began, that gambling will focus the losing bettors on rigging, rather than admitting they had made a poor bet, or even a routine losing bet. It would make bettors focus on normal errors and call them fraud.
