I watched the video. Horrid.

A few questions.

1. Why were they SO AGGRESSIVE on the initial stop?
2. Why did it take them so long to handcuff the guy once they got him? I kept hearing "Give me your hand". WTF...cuff him already. Keystone cops.

It's almost like something else was going on - as in maybe this kid knew someone that the police were not happy with, etc. and they were coming after him from jump street.

A point about police. They are hired/trained incorrectly and underpaid (for what they have to do). Ask any cop you may know and trust, he'll tell you there are guys doing the job that shouldn't be even close to the job.

Sycophant - Your reply makes sense, and while Fox is reporting it, has it far down on their home page (rather than a top story).

Of course, this is all over Twitter being misrepresented: FBI corrupt/Trump clean.

It's interesting - Fox news is reporting that Charles McGonigal "spearheaded" the Russia collusion investigation.

However, other articles and this one give that no indication.

He was head of the NY office for counterintelligence (2016-2018) but how much he was involved in the investigation should be clarified - since it's all over Twitter.

But my statement stands. If he was involved with Russia, how much can we trust he actually tried to get to the bottom of Trump/Russia.

Its hilarious that a guy who investigated Trump for the phony Russia collusion is now arrested for real Russia collusion. But nothing will happen to him, but you can't make this ---- up.

Let me give you some 'Trump supporter' logic.

Maybe because he was associated with Russia, he really didn't do his job in investigating Russia collusion. Like, assigned to the case but not really turning over every leaf because.........you figure it out :)

Interesting, I've checked the home page of Fox News and zero mention of this. Earlier today and just now.

Biden documents, yes. This, no.

Wonder if it was the other way around..............

The really scary thing:

He says his cousin drops off the gun when he's feeling "mentally unstable".

Terrific.

The thing to remember with transgender is, this is not a new thing.

This goes back centuries.

The fact that we have laws/doctors/etc. to deal with it can only be considered a plus (unless you're a Republican?)

Cutting into a healthy body is mutilation.

Are you sure? Millions would disagree.

When it's done to a minor it's child abuse.

I get your point here, but you also have to consider the number of cases, and along with that, have some concept of what each case entails.

" Gender Reassignment Surgery Is Now Available To Oregon Minors Without Parental Consent"

Did you actually read the article, or just the headline?

The article seems to point out these laws in Oregon are to the benefit of teens - meaning to assist with the pressure that goes along with being in this situation and the potential result (namely suicide).

No where did it mention how many teens actually get reassignment surgery - other than Bruce Jenner which doesn't really apply to this discussion.

Bottom line, the law is on the books but surely there is a long, long process.

The pattern is so familiar.
First, deny it's happening.
When it's exposed, pretend it's an extreme outlier.
When it's exposed to be more mainstream than outlier claim it's wonderful and attack anyone who challenges it.

That sounds like the Republican strategy to a tee.

But, back to the matter at hand, hasn't this thread shown these type of procedures performed on teens is rare?

Capitalism anyone?

Am I reading that right?

Of the two impeachments, McCarthy is referring to the second one?

Maybe it's time to bring out this friendly reminder:

Do Democrats really want to set this type of precedent?

Yes, lying about an election and trying to steal it illegally is a crime.

Yes, I do want that precedent so the next person refrains.

Conservatives will end it

What does that mean exactly?

Do you think Conservatives will one day take over and rule forever, spewing their power?

LOL

The GOP had a chance to end this all back during the 2nd impeachment. They refused. In fact, they were scared.

And even today, Mitch McConnell proves that by literally saying "we know exactly who was responsible for this."

So, to protect democracy and persuade this from not happening again, you go after Trump.

Trump deserves this.

And on cue, Lindsey Graham Tweets that Trump will be tough to beat if he sticks to the tone of his speech.

I mean, you can't make this stuff up.

Just like I said, should have impeached, but will ultimately ride or die with Trump.

Thanks a lot Republicans, thanks for this.

You simply had to impeach him after January 6th (a no brainer).

Then you could have just sat back and watched for any of the multiple indictments while he ran his mouth in public.

But now, you've let the sleeping giant awaken and this will bad for the US.

No one is going to beat him. In fact, in typical Trump fashion, he'll win because there are too many opponents and Trump will get just enough of the vote needed.

And while he may not win in 2024 - he will continue to do damage to our country and Republicans will sit back and do NOTHING again.

I don't read all your posts but we are in complete agreement with that last statement you wrote.

Wouldn't drive thru at McDonald's have been a bit more in the plan?

I know when I am up against time, that's what I do. Eat and drive at the same time....

Wasn't the idea to rid yourself of the scene?

"one man's disinformation is another man's facts".

Been seeing that around conservative TV the last week or so....

Basically you can say anything like "how do we know there wasn't three people in the Pelosi household. I mean, we didn't see it so how would know?"

This is pretty damning for those who have been charged, but it doesn't establish anything new that could be used to prosecute Trump.

Glad you see that what was done on Jan 6 (up to and including) was indeed an insurrection attempt...

well, unless a smoking gun on the same level as the Zelensky call turns up...

Are you saying that Trump should have surely been impeached the first go around?

If it's fourth and one, I might choose Walker. Might.

Because he's going to pussyfoot it and there's no guarantee you pick it up!

It should be pretty obvious to anyone that Walker is suffering from post football injuries. The violence, the multiple personalities.

Not sure that's the guy you want as your Senator.

LOL, the Trump economy.

Raise spending, cut taxes - the two polar opposites.

Who couldn't have a great (short term) economy like that? Of course with a price. And Republicans let that happen.
