    Remember this was about documents which he's allowed to have as a former POTUS, some of which were sent to him without request.

     

    Sure, take your SOPs and shove it up your ass.

     

     

     

    As I've mentioned, historically extraordinary. Then combine it with everything else the banana republic democrats have directed at Trump.

    I mean, he seems to have broken some laws and is as shady as ever. I take it you support presidential immunity?

    Sure, but all politicians (and others) have done the same. The efforts to get Trump have been most inconsistent and extraordinary. How anyone can argue otherwise is beyond me

    "The FBI followed standard protocol in this search as we do for all search warrants, which includes a standard policy statement limiting the use of deadly force," the FBI said in a statement Tuesday evening. "No one ordered additional steps to be taken and there was no departure from the norm in this matter."

    Yet another HOAX, eagerly lapped-up by faithful MAGA geniuses...

    This FBI raid of a former POTUS' residence will always and forever be extraordinary.

    Except that it turned out to be MAGA conspiracy nut attacks Speaker's husband after all.

    Should I go look for all those gay hooker comments too?

    The harder you push your stupid ass narrative, the harder the other narrative is pushed. And let's be serious, the pink hammer narrative is much more entertaining.

    This incredibly stupid post says everything you need to know about the "new" or "alt" or Trump right.

    Two things that have absolutely nothing to do with each other. A Christian conservative football player gave a speech espousing traditional Christian values at a Catholic college. As far as I know, he has never beaten up anyone, much less a girlfriend/wife.

    But meanwhile: a video of an aging hip hop artist beating up his girlfriend c. 2016 was released. As far as I know, aging hip hop artist did not say anything espousing Christian values or condemning Christian values.

    They have absolutely nothing to do with each other. Nothing.

    But the low IQ AI machines will still find something to say. It follows the format:

    "You called out [A] for doing/saying [B], but you didn't call out [X] for doing/saying [Y]."

    How illuminating.

    I get the opposing cultures of the two

    You’re actually onto something here, although I’m sure you’ll disagree with where I’m going with it. 
     

    We are currently seeing what a culture driven by liberal women (and effeminate men) looks like.

     

    Record levels of unhappiness and medicating away reality, but the political party in power is fueled by single women and the culture (Hollywood, C-Suite suits and marketing agencies) relentlessly pander and propagandize us with content best described as “the road to Hell is paved with good intentions”.    
     

    Whether its immigration, crime, Palestine, trans etc., women & effeminate men gravitate to the empathetic side of that argument .. making us less safe, more confused and economically dependent upon the government given the lefts further ambitions of the deterioration of the family unit & dependence upon authority to provide/protect. 

     

    Given women typically view things through a more emotional lens than men, (especially those that are single and without children) it’s all very effective. 
     

    And here we are.  The decline of a civilization.  We all know it.  We’re doing the same thing every other declining civilization has done. 
     

    History always repeats itself. 

     

    The decline of the nuclear family is the root cause of many, many ills.

    Reality is that reporting of crime is down and prosecution of crime is down.

    Good is positive. Evil is merely privative, not absolute. It is like cold, which is the privation of heat. All evil is so much death or nonentity. Benevolence is absolute and real. So much benevolence as a man hath, so much life hath he. For all things proceed out of this same spirit, which is differently named love, justice, temperance, in its different applications, just as the ocean receives different names on the several shores which it washes. All things proceed out of the same spirit, and all things conspire with it. Whilst a man seeks good ends, he is strong by the whole strength of nature. In so far as he roves from these ends, he bereaves himself of power, of auxiliaries; his being shrinks out of all remote channels, he becomes less and less, a mote, a point, until absolute badness is absolute death.

    i read this 3x's  and still have no idea what it's meant to convey.  The asshat is a supreme court justice.  He and his wife should be above flying upside down US flags.  The fact that you're ok with it explains a great deal.

    Not everyone in attendance loved the Butker speech...

     

    'Not the time and place': Students speak out on Harrison Butker's 'uncomfortable' commencement addressIn the days since the address, neither Butker nor Benedictine College have commented about the backlash — and graduates have been left to grapple with the fallout.

     

    Harrison Butker’s commencement speech last weekend left some graduates at Benedictine College outraged after the Kansas City Chiefs kicker asserted that one of the “most important” roles for a woman is being a homemaker and that Pride Month is an example of “deadly sin.”

     

    In the six days since the address, neither Butker, 28, nor the small Catholic school have commented publicly about the backlash — and graduates who attended the ceremony have been left to grapple with the fallout.

     

    Kyra Misuraca, a 22-year-old graphic design major, said she was shocked that Butker used the speech to address gender roles instead of encouraging her and other graduating women to follow their dreams.

     

    “My jaw dropped at one point,” said another student, 21-year-old Susannah Leisegang, who also graduated with a graphic design degree. “It was just very uncomfortable, and I was looking back and forth at some of my friends and we were like, this is just not the time and place for this at all.”

    Mary Aaker, who graduated from Benedictine in 2019, said Butker's remarks were “disheartening.” 

     

    “All of that was boiled down to, ‘I bet you’re most excited to go out and start a family,’” she said on NBC’s “TODAY” show.

     

    Butker used the speech to rail against President Joe Biden, abortion, IVF and the response to Covid-19. At one point, while criticizing a media report that mentioned the college, he said that students at the school felt “excitement and pride. Not the deadly sin sort of pride that has an entire month dedicated to it, but the true God-centered pride that is cooperating with the Holy Ghost to glorify him.”

     

    Roughly 12 minutes into the speech, Butker addressed the graduating women directly and said that “the most diabolical lies” had been told to them. 

    “How many of you are sitting here now, about to cross this stage, and are thinking about all the promotions and titles you are going to get in your career? Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world. But I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world.”

     

    Butker invoked his own success and attributed it to his wife, whom he said had converted to Catholicism, married him and “embraced one of the most important titles of all — homemaker,” he said.

     

    The line drew applause, but Misuraca said all the women sitting around her audibly gasped.

     

    “I was very irritated that he would say that to a bunch of women who are graduating college with a degree in something that they’re passionate about,” she said. But to another student in attendance, the outrage over the comment is misplaced. The student, who declined to be interviewed by phone but corresponded with NBC News via text and social media, said that he didn’t believe Butker's comments should be interpreted as telling female students they should quit their jobs and become homemakers.

    "students have been left to grapple with the fallout"? drama much?
