Ignoring Saevel's typical ***, it was political stunt, nothing more. Trump tweeted out an attack on the FDA because he believed something, he had no evidence to back it up, but he attacked them anyway. He imagined this was some kind of big breakthrough (hint: It wasn't even close) and he could build some "momentum" before the RNC. Too bad he *** that up with his nonsensical, offscript "speech" today. And they say he is gonna speak everyday, great plan. Seriously, run him out there as often as possible.

Unlike everyone else, I rather wait for the investigation to finish.

Sure, this could just be as easily a "George Floyd" case as it could be a "Rayshard Brooks" case. The video posted on Twitter doesn't show much about the incident.

Either way, it still does not justify all the looting and destruction going on in Kenosha. This is just Antifa and BLM going wild...again....

But if you don't want to talk about the riots "peaceful protests", we can always talk about deranged Pelosi.

Especially after she called half of the nation "enemies of the state."

She called Trump and members of Congress, along with their supporters (aka voters) "enemies of the state."

You cannot spin your way out of this Vic, no matter how much you wish for it.

Quote:
"We take an oath to protect and defend the constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic and sadly the domestic enemies to our voting system aren't honoring our constitution are right at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue with their allies in the Congress of the United States"

And before you claim "she never said voters!" it is implied there, bub.

You apparently didn't listen to Joe Biden's coronation acceptance speech last week then.

Its not implied at all, nice try tho. This is nothing like Clinton's comment, Pelosi is clearly talking about Trump and Congress. She never mentions or implies the electorate. Swing and a miss.

Pretty easy, they promised it would be a positive, uplifting message (despite not voting on any platform at all) and it took Trump 5 minutes to derail it. It was the typical red meat for the base from there.

BTW, this is for those who love their conspiracy theories.

OPINION PIECE!

Democrats and the Great Mailbox Conspiracy

Quote:
Life is about priorities. That’s an important lesson everyone should learn. Our time on the planet is limited, what you choose to spend it on says more about you than almost anything else. Democrats, in the midst of a pandemic, have chosen a political show over you.

The post office is going broke. Were it not for a string of continual bailouts, the U.S. Postal Service would have closed its doors years ago. Were it a publicly held company, the people who run it would likely be in jail.

Meanwhile, the economy is shut down and millions of Americans are worried about how they’re going to pay their basic bills.

Facing these realities, the House of Representatives went on vacation. They normally take the month of August off, this time they gave themselves six weeks.

Not having a COVID relief bill didn’t change their vacation schedule, Speaker Nancy Pelosi wants to keep her majority and not having a bill that will help people from the damage government has imposed has to be made up for with at-home lies. But a political scam designed to scare gullible Democrats into thinking President Orange Man Bad is trying to steal the election? That’s worth an emergency session.

You really have to wonder how dumb someone has to be to believe this stuff.

The Postal Service is funded through next year already. Even if they blow through all their cash by the end of the next fiscal year, the odds of them doing so by November would require incompetence at a level that, well, only government could do. But they won’t.

Still, people are Hoovering up this conspiracy theory liked Hunter Biden on a bender. “Mailboxes are disappearing!” “Sorting machines are being decommissioned!” And whatever else these lunatics burp out next.

There is no threat to the post office. OK, that’s not entirely true. The Internet is the biggest threat to the post office – email and people paying bills, sent to them electronically, online.

When your business model is the steam engine, the internal combustion engine is eventually going to impact your bottom line. That’s not an evil plan, that’s reality.

Bailouts aren’t going to save the post office in its current configuration or else they would have worked by now. This ain’t their first rodeo.

But Democrats want to force everyone to vote by mail, not out of concern for the pandemic – if they were concerned about that they wouldn’t be on vacation. No, they want to force voting by mail because the rules that govern the vast majority of election issues don’t apply to voting by mail.

It’s not just ballot harvesting, the collection of ballots from people known to be on your “team” (and conversely, the collections and “losing” or delaying the mailing of ballots from those definitely not on your side), it’s electioneering.

Everyone who has voted has run the gauntlet of last-ditch lobbying by campaigns as you walked up to your polling place. There are laws that limit how close those people can get to the doors at polling stations. There are no such laws keeping them away from your front porch.

Anyone who’s watched the news out of Portland, Seattle, Denver, etc., knows the leftist mob has no respect for the law, election or otherwise. As a vote-by-mail election approaches, it’d be easy for people currently trying to set buildings on fire to pour lighter fluid into mailboxes in heavily Republican areas. There’d be no way to know whose ballots had been torched, no way to recast those votes. Do that enough times and you can impact results.

We’ve also seen how these mobs harass anyone they deem not “woke” enough. Do you really think these fascists would hesitate to do the same when it comes to voting?

Democrats couldn’t bring themselves to even mention the violence happening by their Brownshirts, not even the beatings of innocent people. Do you really think they’d give a damn if probable or suspected Republican voters found themselves in their crosshairs? They haven’t even acknowledged the attacks on police officers and the attempts to injure or murder them. Compared to that, who the hell are you?

So-called news organizations are reporting years-old photos as new, standard mailbox refurbishing as a plot against democracy, while ignoring a Black Lives Matter activist trying to kick a 30-yard field goal with a defenseless man’s head. Given that reality, what chance do you have?

Life is about priorities – it shows you who people are. This is who Democrats are. And when someone shows you who they are, believe them.

They could have said "water is wet" and you would demonize it.

Besides, tell us all this wasn't a positive, uplifting message.

Yeah, Tim Scott, the guy that wrote a partisan, ineffective police reform bill, never invited any Democrat input, then falsely accused them of "walking away from the table" they weren't even welcomed to sit at. Nice attempt to rewrite history tho. No one was fooled.

Vic, you obviously don't know what you are talking about.

Hell, even democrats not in office have stated the complete opposite as what you said.

It wasn't Tim Scott's fault that democrats never came to the table on his police reform bill, it's the fact that they don't want to solve an issue they campaign on repeatedly for decades. They don't want to solve any problems, because if they did, they would have nothing to campaign on ever again. That is the only reason why they are still in power.

"Vote for me and I promise to end the issue that I promised the last 5 times! But I promise to make sure it is solved THIS time, as long as you vote for me and not that racist Republican!"

That is the only message the democrats have made in the past 10 presidential election cycles. All they have ever done for the people they represent is make their lives worse, which in turn gives them more "problems" that they would fix, never mind they are the ones who created the problems in the first place!

Nice conservative blog, but no. Again, bolding false statements doesn't make them true. We know exactly what happened with Scott's partisan bill. Instead of negotiating a deal, he wrote his own bill that didn't do anything about Qualified Immunity, didn't do anything about police unions, didn't end no knock warrants, didn't do anything to make Americans safer from police. And then, he tried to stage a show vote, with no Democrat input, and it failed. Duh. Democrats are never going to support a bill they don't get to help write. And thats not unique to the Dems.

Offering amendment votes is a *** joke. They offered the Dems an "opportunity" to have amendments, but they offered no guarantee that they would PASS. Trump made it clear none of the Dem priorities would make it past his desk, so there was no reason to believe any of the Dem "amendments" would pass. There was never any real attempt by the GOP to do anything about police reform.

Check another box of another source you refuse to look at.

Besides, I thought you were all for unions. Isn't that one of the main donors for the liberals/democrats now?

Let me ask you this then. How does your foot taste? You seem to like munching on it a lot lately.

lol, nice tantrum. The author of your conservative blog is Marc Thiessen, a former Bush speechwriter and card carrying Republican. Do you even research the authors of your blogs, or do you just assume their affinity based on the publisher? A simple google search debunked your entire post.

You..do know what a blog is, right Vic?

Of course you don't. You want to die on this hill.

Well, go for it.

BTW, if your arguments have to result in accusation of "false statements" and "tantrums", they aren't arguments to make. Especially since you failed to even counter any points I made, even though you accuse me (and others who you disagree with, it's a pattern for you when you fail to make an argument here, a defense mechanism so to say) of making them.

In other words, try again bub. Nobody is buying your bull anymore. You have spent all of the intellectual capital you had and could borrow against long ago. It's getting to the point where I can, with ever post I make, counter every single one of your retorts, since you are being so freaking predictable now.

Also, it shows that you have no legs to stand on when you cannot even counter every point I make, and focus your arguments on one, very limited, and very ineffective point.

So, just gonna run away from the absolute fact that you posted a conservative blog and pretended it was written by a Democrat then? Pretty much destroyed your entire narrative. I don't need to "try again" because my account remains the correct one. Scott wrote a partisan bill, didn't solicit any Democrat input, and when it failed, he had only his party to blame. His attempt to rewrite history completely failed.
