So bet if we looked back at Bader Ginsburg, or Sotomayor one may find stuff as well... but seeing as the rules just changed this is just another witch hunt from the left. Now if you were seriously interested in looking into corruption and taking in government... you'd be screaming loudly about Joe Briben. But a course not a peep to be heard for the herd of sheep that bury their head in the sand when it comes to the Left.

What is not good is giving these socialist and Marxist any air at all, just let the thread die.

How about what some of us have said all along:
99.9% of politicians and their appointees are evil, self-serving scum and provide no benefit to the working American.
Is this going to turn into a witch hunt by the right and the left to dig dirt?
GREAT use of our Taxpayer Money that'll be!
I generally don't give an F about the Biden China story or this new Clarence Thomas bullshit... how about the WASTE OF OUR RESOURCES that should be going to IMPROVING THE MIDDLE CLASS LIVES and bringing people OUT OF POVERTY?
They don't want that. They want us fighting. They want us DISTRACTED from the real issues. They want us divided. They want us as slaves.

Tell me, sir, just how does that work exactly: Your ambivalence toward corruption and yet your earnest and noble desire to improve the lives of others? Do you truly believe that the bad trees whom you don't give "an F about" are capable of producing the good fruit of unselfishness and charity? A curious mind is dying to know, therefore, if everyone us had the same attitude as you, from whence comes the magic wand that would be necessary to change the dark, depraved, evil, corrupt hearts of 99.9% of the politicians?

It's no wonder this nation is in so much deep trouble.

I miss him.

Then if you remember Paul Harvey and the rest of the story, you also remember it always tilted right in alignment with reality.

I'm with you.
The system is beyond repair. The Republic as is will continue to crumble and the powers that be gave themselves power that prevents any meaningful change.
Honestly the only way for it to change is a revolution.
I'm not kidding.
We just don't collectively have the balls to do it.

The world was different then. No one commented on right vs left. We were Americans first. We need to get back to that.

This goes back to community. Nearly everyone has this similar desire, no?
The violence and constant infighting we see portrayed on TV and on social media are really just propagated by TPTB and continually used to divide us. I know of no one in my community or other areas I've spent time in that actually spend their energy and resources into furthering division themselves. It's all driven by evil media and above.
What has TPTB done to encourage family values and community? Nothing, in fact they're done the opposite- families constantly torn apart, communities thrown into violence because of lack of proper actual policing and law and order, minority areas in disrepair leading kids to criminality, etc. I'm not even talking about two parents from the same gender, a lot of people may disagree but they're both capable of raising a kid-- I'm talking about the fathers AND MOTHERS that leave their kids or WORSE, stay with their kids and do drugs, abuse alcohol, and give their kids a terrible upbringing. What has TPTB done to fix that.
I just came back from a resort in Mexico. On two separate occasions the table next to me were discussing politics, both discussions on extreme opposite ends of the spectrum. Did I get up and throw punches? Get into a screaming match with someone I disagreed with? No. I kept to myself and think, this is the correct way to react as a community member. It's not starting witch hunts on the opposite party, it's not shunning people you disagree with, it's not letting this stuff run your life.
It's caring for your loved ones and your neighbors. It's respect. It's love. It's understanding disagreeing beliefs. Yada yada.
I know you're a man of scripture boxcar, Isn't that the bigger message from Jesus and the bible rather than homosexuality being a sin etc etc....
