If you can identify a specific area where we are not afforded equal protection under law, then I will join with you in calling for change.Quote:
But we're all not equal
The question is how many will deserve to be indicted .If in fact he picks Sally Yates for Justice Dept then the crooked media will proclaim the whole lot of them saints running the cleanest administration ever . Watching in amusement as the complicit press is orgasmic about how experienced' Quid's cabinet choices are. They have all been in the swamp for decades ;with years of failure, never getting any results or success. All the problems Biden ran on, never got fixed by this bunch.Quote:
Favoritism, Cronyism, and Nepotism are a fact of life in politics, never more so than the outgoing administration.
Now I wonder how many of Biden's cronies will be indicted for crimes and misdemeanors while pretending to run the count
The question was often asked of both HC and JB, "What have they accomplished?" The answer is generally the chirping of crickets.
I said we're not all equal. And are not considered equal. Big difference from what you said.Quote:

Thus, immigrants' children who are born in this country are also equal under the law. Are their naturalized parents also equal under the law??Quote:

Quid introduced his national security team today for 45 minutes . Then he walked off the stage without taking any questions from reporters . My God ! He won't even take questions from pom pom waiving cheerleaders . Guessing he will claim he's running a transparent administration .
Might have forgotten what he was doing??
No he just doesn't want to be put on the spot
I think you nailed it.Quote:

Why then was there gerrymandering before the November election, polling places were shut down, poll watchers were recruited, mailed-in votes were tossed out, et al?Quote:

The details were in the intros, his choices were present, and he isn't president yet, so no hurry on making appointments.Quote:

Deal?
Yes, it affected a lot of voters. It had very little to do with immigrant families unless they are brown. Plus, black voters were very much affected.Quote:

And as I've said before, there wasn't mass mail-outs of ballots (to everyone between 2 and 89?). Signatures on those ballots were verified with signatures on file. Many states sent out applications first to registered voters.Quote:

These were safe appointments meant to not rock the boat until after the Jan 5 runoffs .The Dems have this trojan horse strategery down pat .Quote:

There was NO gerrymandering before the election Redistricting takes place after the census once every 10 years .Next year comes gerrymandering ;and many states have mandated different methods ;and of course now the courts intervene in redistricting decisions more oftenQuote:

And redistricting cuts both ways. I was once in a safe Republican district represented by one of the statesmen of our time. 20 years ago his district was gerrymandered out of existence and I was added to Elliot Engel's district even though I live on the other side of the Hudson river from where the majority of the district resides . But at least Engel had a solid foreign policy record .
10 years ago I was gerrymandered again and put in lib Nita Lowey's district . Again across the river from the majority of the district .
Engel was primaried out this cycle and now his district will be represented by a radical socialist . Lowey retired this cycle and now starting next year I will be represented by a radical lefty who's accomplishments are that he will be the first Black /Gay member of Congress . wooohoo ... ! I haven't had a representative in 20 years . So maybe I should feel disenfranchised . (and forget NY STATE governance . The Dems have a strangle hold on it . )
Tom you are not suggesting NY is corrupt, are you. Federal elections should be decided on electoral boundries set by a federal agency, not a corrupt state one
