The only bet I will take is Trump will find an excuse to get out of that debate. (CAN’T WAIT TO HEAR THIS EXCUSE BUT ANY BETS MAGA).

This debate should not have but one rule just have the two stand there on the stage and the first one who has to pee is the loser.

Justice Alito degrades the f**g by flying it upside down. MAGA destroyed Colin Kaepernick career for kneeling to protest police k*****g Black kids. Remember your comments what a disgrace there are no reasons to denigrate the American f**g well he didn’t denigrate the f**g he kneeled during the national anthem in protest of police k*****g black kids

What Alito did was denigrating the f**g. Where are you clowns now how come your not saying anything about Alito bunch of (F) ing MAGA hypocrites. I mean real (F) hypocrites

The people yearn for laws to regain their potency. They are sickened by statutes on the books that vaporize upon needed enforcement. They are tired of excuses and inaction. We feel the chaos everywhere from the trivial to the existential. How many times has Joe Biden threatened the Houthis? Is the Red Sea safely navigable—or not?
What does Joe mean when he virtue-signals “Don’t!”? Did his “don’t” stop Putin from attacking Kyiv? From Iran targeting Israel with missiles and drones?
I recently flew on a Southwest flight. I had purchased a first-class ticket to board and earned a second in line according to Southwest’s singular protocols. But first were the supposedly invalided. And there were 12 such that claimed serious maladies that not only required wheelchairs but also the accompaniment of their families. All told some 20 boarded first. And purchased first-class ticketholders were relegated to 6-7 rows in the rear.
I lingered before deboarding. Some 10 of the 12 walked out easily along with 7 or 8 of their relatives.
I said nothing, but just listened to the other passengers, who complained that there were zero rules to ascertain disability and their first-class tickets were a bitter joke. I thought silently that had all the stricken been apprised they could board first, but would have to disembark last, then some of the “disabled” might have thought of boarding with the majority.
Why does not one pay any attention to federal servants who swear under oath to tell the t***h to Congress and federal investigators, and then summarily lie so boldly?
Again, there are no consequences. No consequences for once CIA Director John Brennan who with exemption lied twice under oath. So did Director of National Intelligence James Clapper. And with self-confessed impunity.
Add in Anthony F***i and Andrew McCabe. How could James Comey seriously claim amnesia 245 times when interrogated by the House Intelligence Committee? How could “51 Intelligence Authorities” simply lie on the eve of the 2020 e******n by swearing the authentic H****r’s laptop was likely a product of Russian disinformation? Did Leon Panetta or Mike Morrel suffer ostr****m, ridicule, or public censor for boldly lying on the eve of a p**********l debate and upcoming e******n?
If we just charged one government grandee with perjury who lied under oath, and if convicted jailed him, perhaps the t***h would return to the government. Or for the public liars who prevaricate with impunity, what if we just ostracized them, as if lying was a cardinal sin?
If laws were enforced, if lying earned a perjury charge or at least social ostr****m, then the order would follow. Deterrence would reappear, and the smash-and-grabber, the carjacker, and the knockout-game puncher would recede into the shadows.
A final note. Laws must not just be enforced but done so equally and symmetrically.
No one believes Trump would be prosecuted by Bragg, James, Smith, and Willis were he Biden and not Trump.
No one believes that the laws were enforced against arson, r**ting, murder, mayhem, and l**ting during the summer of 2020. And yet illegal parading was charged against many of the J****** 6 demonstrators.
Some like Peter Navarro go to prison for refusing a congressional subpoena; other refuseniks like Eric Holder claim hero status. Does anyone believe if the evidence against the Biden conglomerate were comparably applied to the Trump clan, the latter would be similarly excused and exempt?
If a special prosecutor in 2017 found that Trump had removed classified files in the manner of Robert Hur’s findings of Biden’s illegality, then surely Trump would have been impeached, convicted, jailed, and removed from office.
In sum, when laws are not enforced, or enforced erratically, unfairly, and dishonestly, then there is no civilization. And so, we witness why America has become what it is: home of the unfree and home of the lawless.
