they are afraid the FBI will raid their homes and confiscate their property.

Jason Crow said it yesterday, there are 2 camps of Democrats, those who want to fight now, and those who want to wait Krasnov out and beat him at the ballot box.

Schumer and Jeffries should be out in the street confronting the Gestapo.

Those who say we have to burn down the village in order to save it camp. A small group and curiously influential.

Frankly, the camp who scares the crap out of me.

They pretty much never cover the stories properly.

"Disgraced nyc developer tells racist lies about popular democrat"

He fabricated a lie about Obama's birth certificate, claimed to have sent investigators for which he never produced any evidence, claimed he had witnesses, for which he never produced any evidence, and eventually Obama proved it was all a lie. Yet the media gave the fraud from the start way more airtime than they ever gave anyone.

And they struggle even now to call him a liar.

This whole thing would never have been possible without serious help from the media.

One week of honest reporting and headlines and he'd be toast.
