Think about what it says that the Papadopoulos info was kept SECRET for this long!

Think about what went down, him pleading guilty AND agreeing to work for Mueller.

And NOBODY knew until now?

What ELSE does nobody know?

OH god, If I was a trump team member, I would be buying a big boat to leave the country in right about now.

Can you be pardoned if you are entering "not guilty" plea?

Or only AFTER you have been convicted of something or can the traitor pardon them now and end everything that would happen as in trials etc?

I suggested to the admins we need a forum or pinned GD thread where we can be educated by our resident attorneys about everything Russia/FBI investigation.

"Stranger Things" question about plot line.

The sheriff guy, is he the father of Jane/El? Is that what the birth certificate was about?

I have been watching but not always with my full attention.

Reminder, Gorsuch must be removed, Garland must be put in the seat

Just a reminder that anything less means we have no laws in this country.

Voter ID laws are unconstitutional UNLESS

said ID being required is given to the voter not only for free but if the voter has to extend ANY effort AT ALL it is unconstitutional and is a poll tax.

Sure the ID is free, all you have to do is go get a birth certificate and then drive to the DMV after you spent 6 hours on the phone with bumfuck county to get the birth certificate, blah blah blah...

Sorry, no, unless you FIND me and HAND the ID to me, you cant require it.



These filthy fucking traitorous assholes know there is no voter fraud, so what they are doing is the EPITOME of anti American.

A Brief and Depressing History of Rape Laws

In many societies, rape was defined as a crime against property—if it was defined as a crime at all.


https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/9bkje5/for-context-heres-how-various-societies-punished-rapists


I tried to trace American laws as to rape and I came to the conclusion that law or no law, for over a hundred years rape was entirely acceptable if the victim was black and even if the victim was white, rarely did a man pay any legal penalty for it.

This is the America the GOP wants, the conservative men are tired of worrying about hurting a woman's feelings for sure and most of them dont want to have to deal with the legal system if they force themselves on women.

Hell, they sure dont like sexual harassment civil actions and want them gone.

I refuse to blame someone for doing something they TOLD us they were gonna do.

I blame the people who overtly and indirectly gave him the power to do it.

It is not surprising that a liar has told 1200 lies in 6 months, it is not surprising that Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell want to take away our SS and Medicare and food from poor people.

They TOLD us they wanted to do that!
