All of the Colorado Springs coverage should focus on the cover up that allowed this Republican grandson to avoid a red flag laws

“Love is love” says Joe Biden and he’s right. He hasn’t defined hate but we see where and who foments it. The insurrection, the killings at Uvalde, Parkland, Sandy Hook, a Colorado movie theater, and in a Buffalo, NY supermarket are all fueled by the NRA, the Heritage Foundation, the Federalist Society, and white supremacy. We are now a terrorist country. I am sad.

The Stormy Daniels issue has become the Democrat's "Hunter Biden's briefcase. Can we move on? Enough already with the morality platform with this guy. It has already been proven voters don't care.

What I want to know is this: Why isn't every pundit and citizen in this Country screaming from the Empire State Building this heinous fact?

HE IGNORED COVID. He can't keep Americans safe and alive.

I personally credit Joe Biden with quite possibly saving my life. 200 million vaccines in 90 days accomplished in a massive logistical rollout.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin L. Bragg should never have dismissed the “investigations” into the corrup former guy. Like Garland, he is a coward and a lightweight.

When obvious and widely available evidence of criminal activity is available, there can be no excuse not to fully pursue the facts and bring the matters to trial. In the situation of stolen classified documents, there is no excuse tot to aggressively investigate and indict. There is certainly no question that crimes were committed, no special counsel is necessary or appropriate. The same is true for xthe payment of hush money.

In both cases, all that is needed are people with the courage and conviction to properly proceed. The clock is running and both of these men have failed to do their jobs to provide justice for the American People.

Shame on both of them.

“How dark money bought the Supreme Court seats!” Videos of speeches on the senate floor on YouTube by Senator Whitehouse is a MUST watch for those who will defend our democracy!

Roberts response, written by a court lackey, was insulting to all citizens.

Isn’t it time for Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Alito to consider retirement, in order to avoid bringing (further) discredit on the Court?

I’ve been making calls for Warnock, and will again this afternoon. It can be tedious (and also uplifting), but at its worst it’s a lot better that having to endure travel at Thanksgiving. (On the other hand, we don’t have anyone to see who live within a reasonable distance.)

Will be running along my beautiful roads on Saturday...though I made a donation instead of registering. My friend from Texas, Ruth said, "run!"

Last night Heather Cox Richardson hosted a live conversation with Dahlia Lithwick. It was so informative and Dahlia’s insights into the Supreme Court are insightful. The video cut out after 30 minutes and then started again, so there are two parts. I’m having trouble copying the links so if someone else has Facebook and can do that, it would be appreciated.

Fierro thought he had killed that third generation far right wingnut (his mother is a far wingnut, his grandfather is one of the craziest pro-Trump frar-far right wingnuts in California). It would have been garbage removal.

Working daily to help Rev Warnock get Re-elected but we are taking Thanksgiving off!!! Talking to voters is so rewarding and getting Saturday and/or Sunday early voting in many of Georgia’s 159 counties is a huge step towards fighting voter suppression. Thank you Mark Elias and team. Remember the judge gave permission to have weekend voting. Key word is permission so each county in GA determines its days, hours and more importantly locations for early voting. Douglas County is having early voting today and tomorrow. A huge step. So please vote early. Rev Warnock needs every vote to win. Do not sit the runoff out! If you live in GA go to iwillvote.com to find your county’s early voting information.

I will keep fighting to save democracy one vote at a time. Your vote=your voice!!!

Robert, I hope you don't take this as someone complaining about your almost perfect grammar (wink), but I would like to clarify that members of the SCOTUS are corrupt and are available for purchase, ie the right wingers, and not the whole court. It is a shame that RBG and others are tarnished by the extremist justices.

Can sworn peace officers who refused to uphold the law be sued for personal responsibility arising from dereliction of their duties, which should remove their personal liability protection since they are no longer operating under the rules and procedures of the agency they work for? Maybe I'm just ignorant but I'm surprised that I didn't see any other comments or responses to this story; or maybe because, regrettably, most of those other stories involved tragedies of larger scope.

The Supreme Court story is definitely worth pursuing and paying attention to. Corruption can and does take multiple forms, subtle as well as overt. I’m wondering if the now majority Justices are denying participation in the subtle forms; there plenty of overt evidence they they are and have been at least on the proverbial “slippery slope.”

Secondly your readers are not unanimous in wanting unending military support for Ukraine. There is serious questions about how the US promoted this event and the Nazi elements within the Ukrainian government. Worse the Republicans are using this situation to argue that the Democrats care more about people in another country than about people here and it’s true there’s no money for vaccine Research here because it all has to go to the military industrial complex. After watching all the fake wars promoted since 2000 think we should have a healthy dose of skepticism.
