Justice delayed is justice denied. A rush to judgment is mob mentality. Liberals are so fair minded it takes forever to get a conviction because of the presumption of innocence. The judicial system of the US insures that facts take preponderant weight over the desire for revenge. The leniency of the justice system is an incentive to commit crimes. Social status among criminals and those who sympathize with them can be had by beating charges. Money to afford high powered attorneys determines who goes to jail.

The accumulating frustration of delayed justice will eventually cause a revolution. What direction it takes is the question.

Actually, I'm quite amazed that (Elmer) Steward Rhodes has been convicted by a federal court and jury of his peers of seditious conspiracy with a possible jail term of 20 years in less than a year and 11 months. Think about it.

Objectively, given our system, your amazement is probably warranted. We live in a world where objective evaluations aren't the norm and everything gets view from emotional perspectives.

I mean why not. That woman who lost the governor’s race claimed she won and should be declared the winner because she found 250,000 votes for her which were not counted or something. She hasn’t presented any info as to where or how she found these votes we just need to trust her.

This is funny whether true or not. Funny if true and funny if this is the lengths the GOP goes to while lying.

MSN has now covered this, but they think the same thing I think, that Jones is not a trustworthy source.


She claims she is talking to Gaetz staffers. If Jones expects the story to have legs, she needs to turn her sources over to NYT, WaPo, CNN, etc. and have them vet the sources and decide if it's a story. Because her word on the matter is insufficient.

Notice how we are not jumping to conclusions with one questionable source despite Gaetz being a dirtbag.

Not like the righties. One unsubstantiated rumor and they run with it until it makes it up to the likes of Tucker Carlson

Like the girl who claimed she saw a dick in the YMCA women's locker room. Turns out it was a trans person who already had gender changing surgery. No dick found

Intelligent reporting. “This is going around and the credibility is this. Be advised”.
Targeting an audience that can think for themselves.

Somehow, and also somehow unshockingly, this piece of shit is getting away with it

Justice Department declines to charge Rep. Matt Gaetz in sex trafficking probe

Career federal prosecutors informed witnesses of the decision Wednesday.

I figured he would slide away. Hard to base your case on someone who already falsely accused someone else of similar behavior. Bad witness is bad witness. Florida seems so hopeless to me. I lived there for a couple years right out of tech school working for Motorola back in the mid 70s. Such a strange state. Agricultural backbone (cattle and citrus), real estate, and a bunch of clueless escapees from the northern mid-west on the west coast and the northeast on the east coast with some Canucks in the mix.
