Just got my second federal court notice continuing trial and hearings. This is how this crap began last time.

The riots in Philadelphia are the most recent consequence of the Liberal Democrats’ war against the police.  Law enforcement is an incredibly dangerous occupation, and thousands of officers have given their lives in the line of duty.  All lethal force incidents must be fully investigated.  The facts must be followed wherever they lead to ensure fair and just results.  In America, we resolve conflicts through the courts and the justice system.  We can never allow mob rule.  The Trump Administration stands proudly with law enforcement, and stands ready, upon request, to deploy any and all Federal resources to end...

For Bible-believing Christians in 2016, Donald J. Trump was the most unlikely presidential candidate imaginable. He fathered children by three different wives, made some of his wealth in the gambling industry, and was known for using vulgar and degrading language. He was no one’s image of a choirboy. But at some point, Trump managed to win the confidence of enough voters to overcome seemingly insurmountable odds, and in the process he convinced the largest number of evangelicals in history to vote for him on Election Day, which was nothing short of a miracle.Earlier this month, USA Today wrote that Trump’s...

And I thought they sucked before. Just today Twitter unlocked the NY Post's account. It's been locked ever since it tweeted out the story of Hunter Biden, Joe Biden and Tony Bobulinski. Mullah Dorsey decreed it to be "Russian disinformation." The account remained locked even after the DOJ and the FBI both agreed that it was NOT Russian disinformation. That wasn't good enough for the Pravda wannabe media. It took a Senate hearing and a thrashing of Jack Dorsey by Sen. Ted Cruz to get the NY Post account unlocked. Then Dorsey and Zuckerberg sheepishly admitted that there was no...
