"be very careful about siding with people wielding a sword at the 1st amendment ... "

The American People and the U.S. Supreme Court have been whacking at (interpreting and reinterpreting) the 1st amendment since at least 1925.

"Hundreds in publishing sign letter objecting to book deals for the Trump administration"

That was a letter from agents and authors etc. That is not the same as the Publisher. No publisher vowed to not publish a Trump presidency book.

You lied.

So.

Middle finger to you, Liar.

Re 15

I could have known it was a lie without looking it up.

First it was coming from you so was it was just a high probability it was a lie.

Second publishing is a for profit business. And if there was the possibility of huge profits involved then a for profit businesses would never say never.

The fact is publishers WERE concerned about being able to verify trumps many known lies because the AUTHOR is normally responsible for the veracity of the book.

And if the book turned out to be a sack of lies and lost money as it most likely would because the many ventures of Trumpy seem often doomed to failure how would they get their (which would surely be a large) advance back?

"I knew it wouldn't age well for you. I also see you framed your response as a question, which tells me you're really good at playing dumb."

And I knew it would draw you out. I just wanted you to post your sources.

Because I had already checked to see if my memory was correct.

And was. No publisher ever vowed any such thing.

You said and I quote:

"publishers who vowed to never publish a book about Trump's presidency"

Please show in any of your links where a PUBLISHER vowed to "never publish a book about Trumpy's presidency.

Thanks.

I have seen the Democrats move further and further right every election cycle for 45 years. Like a steady erosion of principles for funding and a moving ever further right of the Overton window.

Proof that you can bring a monkey into American politics but you cannot make him understand it.

Here's a hint: Democrats do not operate in a vacuum nor have they had enough control of Congress to pass purely democratic policies with those "democratic principles" in ages.

You can apparently thank citizens like yourself (for not voting?) and about 50% of America for voting FOR that.

(Editing repost)

Doh.

She doesn't have a platform. Period. Full stop.

What a desperate maroon!

Being the leader of the Democratic Party then the Democratic Party Platform IS her platform. (Think maybe you can find it online?)

Are you on your Period?

Then Full stop it!

You are on a low traffic blog with maybe 20 regulars. It's okay to just be honest here.

I hope he doesn't, but I'm not voting this time around. I feel like there's no point.

Stupid is as stupid does.

If you are not voting then why are you complaining so much?

If Trumpy wins the White House and we lose the House and Senate to maga republicans then you will get the government you deserve.

Sounds just like a Parks and Recreation episode featuring Nick Offerman.

To be continued I am sure.

FTA:

First, the kinds of issues we examine here are related to concerns that a president may also abuse his or her authority by relieving friends and allies from accountability in the justice system.

And this is for stinkerbell ...

Second, we do not also chronicle President Joe Biden's use of the Justice Department because there is no evidence that he or anyone at the White House ever took similar actions.

Ouch! Thats gotta sting a bit.

Trump talks about ENFORCING THE LAW and Democrats actually do it.

Time to bring back Civics class.

If the Russians taught American Civics to the bots in their troll farms maybe we would get a better class of trolls here.

"Biden has spent nearly 40% of presidency on vacation."

As usual you got nothing. Except much ado about nothing. Signifying nothing.

It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

"You all love censorship and cannot abide ANY opposing viewpoints."

Speaking for myself I can't abide such blatant ignorance of the constitution and in particular how the first amendment has been interpreted and applied in America and will speak out against attempts at propaganda and misinformation any chance I get.

Donald Trump told ally Mark Levin that he had "every right" to interfere with the 2020 election in comments aired on Fox News on Sunday.

The rights and duties of the President are clearly spelled out in the Constitution.

So I am sure that maga maroons can point out the exactly where the right to interfere or meddle in the election is enumerated in there.

We need to demand it be rebalanced for all Americans.

The federal government represents all of us.

As such Federal jobs are available to all American citizens and as such is very diverse just as America is.

Sorry if you can't qualify for one but that's on you.

And there is no such thing as a "Deep State" no matter how many times you repeat that tired old Trumpy canard.

Once again stinkerbell sides with a billionaire whose "legal responsibility is to his shareholders, not to the public and its freedoms." And shows that he has no understanding of the first amendment and it's relation to social media.

"So ---- stupid"

Like Tom Hanks said, "stupid is as stupid does".

publishers who vowed to never publish a book about Trump's presidency? Remember that? No? Didn't think so.

POSTED BY LFTHNDTHRDS

Maybe nobody remembers it because it didn't actually happen?

Speaking of "self-appointed moral censors" ...

Can you share with us a link to the source where you can show that "graphic ------" is actually "being peddled to underage children"?

Please do not post a link to your butt. Where you seem to get most of your nonsense.

Thanks.

Re 13

Welcome to America comrade!

In America we call those "federal agencies".

The Federal Register lists 438 agencies and sub-agencies ...

Politics are not allowed in the civil service workplace below the executive level.

But..but..What about Hunter?

Where is Hunter Biden?

Oh here he is ...

Hunter Biden argues his conviction should be tossed out, citing judge's ruling in Trump documents case

"In federal court papers filed in Delaware, Hunter Biden's attorneys asked the judge who oversaw his gun trial to dismiss the case against him because of a federal court ruling in Florida dismissing the classified documents case against former President Donald Trump."

Can we ban this gibbering slack-jawed traitor apologist? Or at least stop giving fascist opinion screeds a forum?

No worries bro.

I predict that as we get closer and closer to the election and they get more and more desperate he will cross the "red line" and get himself banned.

I wish you fake, anti-American ignoramuses would simply stop sowing dissent where you don't belong. You continually lie and obfuscate what most of know are the actual truths and facts, particularly about our elections.

He says he is an American. A Virginian no less! One of the original 13 colonies.

But he doesn't seem to have a clue how politics work in America.

It seems it would easier to teach a monkey to be an astronaut than explain the history of America and how it works to him.

I but I admire your perseverance.
