Got asks on Tumblr two days in a row. One was about how Iran and al Quaida support Palestine, and the other was how Qatar supposedly helps fund the particular sort of racial brainwashing found in universities. The take-away, as always, is that once Muslims get a large enough foothold, they don't gaf about human rights. Dumb college kids protesting get raped and murdered in a similar way as those women at the music festival that started all this.

As upsetting as it was, the Trump verdict was predictable. They can't beat him so they have to disqualify him.

Just got to hold on long enough for the worm to turn. However much time that ends up being.

Trump receiving over $200 million in donations since that BS verdict (so far) is pretty encouraging.

There's at least a dozen things very wrong with the Trump prosecution/trial/conviction, but what really sticks out for me is that whatever he did, it was like ten years ago and the statute of limitations should have kicked in. Contrast this to 2010-2011: we just had a catastrophic banking crisis caused by thousands of bankers and financiers doing all sorts of shenanigans, in the middle of the Great Recession, which harmed millions, and no one was prosecuted or went to prison for it. And when questioned, Eric Holder, surely the worst attorney general ever, literally said, "welp, now that it's been over TWO YEARS the statute of limitations is in effect and no one can be convicted, so it's pointless to go on about it. It's water under the bridge!" (After he stalled and pointedly refused to investigate anything for his first two years ( ... )

Uniformly Known

Consistently Applied

Non-selectively Enforced

That was how I was *frequently* told our policy, procedures, and the UCMJ was upheld in the DoD when I was a younger version of myself.

WHAT. IS. SO. HARD. about doing the very same thing in the civilian world???

Nothing hard about it at all. However, the Demon-rats have a bad orange man to defeat by any means necessary, so all that rule of law stuff is inconvenient. The 'Rats have been at this for a very long time. Remember how the IRS was used to attack the TEA Party?
