Under a qaurintine, say of two weeks they could quietly scoop up all the bad guys. Brilliant!

Thread

Only leftists could criticize the president for addressing the country during a period of public and economic turmoil.

MSNBC@MSNBC
WATCH: Exclusive: Joe Biden talks to @Lawrence on Monday about how President Trump is handling the coronavirus outbreak and the tanking stock markets:

“I wish he would just be quiet. I really mean it ... just let the experts speak.”

More tonight on @TheLastWord.

Part of the job of the president is to communicate the steps his administration is taking.

Leftists know that.

We’re seeing a concerted effort by Democrats and the media—sorry for the redundancy—to cause deaths and bring on a recession.

Leftists say that it’s inconsistent for conservatives to oppose abortion but support the death penalty.

The problem with that argument is that it equates unborn children with murderers.

I’m a fan of Tim Pool, but he said something recently that made me roll my eyes.

While pointing out that eliminating cash bail and adopting no-arrest policies has only increased crime rates, Tim said he didn’t know what the answer is.

That answer to WHAT?

People are arrested for committing crimes. If they can’t afford bail, that’s THEIR problem.

And in reality, IT ISN’T A PROBLEM.

You go to a bail bondsman and pay 10 percent of the bail.

The bondsman puts up the rest.

How many people REALLY can’t afford that?
You have to work REALLY HARD to go to jail.

There’s no definition of “true first offender” because it’s impossible to gather the data.

Either it isn’t kept, or it can’t be legally shared.

We don’t even know how many incarcerated people committed no prior criminal acts.

The point is that the overwhelming majority of people in jail or prison deserve to be there.

But when talking about people not being able to afford bail, Tim Pool said that he would rather err on the side of keeping people free than incarcerating them.

Then he said he doesn’t know what the answer is.

I know the answer is.

Jail is leverage. By arresting people, you get them off the streets and can force them into treatment programs.

In California, the cops can no longer save underage prostitutes.

Before, cops could arrest them and get them away from their pimps.

They were NEVER jailed.

Now, the cops have to allow the underage prostitutes to continue working.

Don’t kid yourselves: This was deliberate. Rich pedophiles lobbied Sacramento.

Today, this happened:

Ex-LA City Councilman Mitch Englander Pleads Not Guilty To Corruption Charges

Englander is charged with accepting thousands of dollars in cash and a female escort during trips to Las Vegas and Palm Springs in a “pay for play” scheme.

https://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2020/03/09/ex-la-city-councilman-mitch-englander-arrested-on-corruption-charges/

He got bribed with cash, whores, and vacations.

The FBI investigated for two years.

I don’t understand selling your soul for cash, whores, and vacations.

But that’s why I’m not a politician.

Bernie Sanders went on Fox News to call for outlawing billionaires.

Chris Wallace points out that billionaires create jobs and give hundreds of millions to charity, but Sanders says that a person is entitled to only so much money.

The government should determine how much money each of us has.

Sanders sees billionaires in isolation. He refuses to understand how important those billions are in keeping the economy rolling.

Billionaires keep their assets in privately and publicly held businesses, stocks, and bonds.

Currently the average for billionaires’ luxury items is 2.3 percent of their net worth.

In other words, ALL THE REST OF THEIR MONEY is benefiting the rest of us.

Outlawing billionaires will tank the global economy.

Which is what Bernie wants.

Leftism is malign. The point is to make us all peons, serfs, and peasants.

But Bernie won’t be the nominee. Biden will.

And that’s how the socialist agenda will be implemented.

Everyone should live in a socialist country for a year.
I despise all my neighbors.

Why should they get my money? They didn’t earn it, and they’d simply blow it on giant trucks, booze, and fast food.

Socialism doesn’t work because it makes people into entitled piglets.

They always demand more slops in their troughs.

But in their quest to force socialism on the rest of us, Democrats and the press are saying the craziest things we’ve ever heard.

“The president shouldn’t address the country.”

Why?

“Because I say so.”
My father said that.

I already knew by the age of four that it was a cop-out.

And we’re all a lot older than four, aren’t we?

END
