One of a so-called group of "impactful community leaders" invited to speak at the Democratic National Convention was convicted murderer Donna Hylton. In 1986 when she was 21 years old, Hylton was convicted for kidnapping, raping, torturing, and murdering Thomas Vigliarolo. In a three week torture session Hylton starved her victim, burned him with cigarettes, squeezed his testicles with a pair of pliers, sodomized him with a metal rod, and ultimately murdered him when the ransom she was demanding wasn't paid.
She justified her crime on the grounds that she needed money to launch a modeling career and that Vigliarolo "was a homo anyway." She spent 26 years in prison for these crimes and was paroled in 2012. After regaining her freedom she found work as a Democrat activist, joined the Coalition for Women Prisoners and advocated for the early release of "prisoners like me."
Biden campaign manager Greg Schultz boasted that "the endorsements of these impactful community leaders shows that Joe has touched the heart and soul of those who have been mistreated by our judicial system. Victims of the systemic racism of our courts and law enforcement recognize the tranformative potential of the policies and personnel that Joe will bring to this nation if voters make him the next president of the United States."
In related news, Biden also received the endorsement of the Chinese Communist Party's newspaper The Global Times. The paper's editors predicted that "Mr. Biden will be much easier to deal with than Trump—a viewpoint that is shared by many countries. Polls already indicate that a majority of American voters are ready to reject the 'America first' policies of Trump and begin the transformation into the socialist progressive nation envisioned by former President Obama by electing Mr. Biden president of the United States in November."

Think this day and time has come when we’re not fighting liberals/Demonrats.......we’re fighting against Satan himself and it’s apparent because of what we’re seeing today......God help us...
“Impactful”? Whatever happened to “influential”, “important”, “effective”,and other words in what used to be known as the English language?
I think “impactful” acknowledges that the person has used kinetic energy to effect change. Examples would be burning another person with a cigarette, sodomizing him with an iron rod, and murdering him.
Guess I”m just old-fashioned. To me, it’s still “had an impact on”, etc.
But there are far more important things than semantics this election season, that’s for sure. Our Pres. MUST win, so he can “have an impact” on America’s future. :-)
