He became a member of their national assy I think. mspart

You'll end up with one of these that beats everything in its path. mspart

Yes he said that. Is there any proof this is not going on? With the amount of drugs coming over the border I'd say he was correct on that one. Not everyone is a drug runner. But enough are getting through to make a real issue. https://www.judicialwatch.org/in-2019-over-90-of-illegal-aliens-arrested-in-u-s-had-criminal-convictions-pending-charges/ More than 90% of illegal immigrants arrested by federal agents in the United States last year had criminal convictions or pending criminal charges, including 56,000 assaults and thousands of sex crimes, robberies, homicides and kidnappings. Many had “extensive criminal histories with multiple convictions,” according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) year-end report. The 123,128 illegal aliens arrested by the agency’s Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) in 2019 had 489,063 criminal convictions and pending charges, representing an average of four crimes per alien, highlighting the “recidivist nature” of the arrested aliens, the agency writes, noting that sanctuary cities nationwide greatly impeded its public safety efforts. So it would seem that he was correct on the second one. Not everyone is a rapist. But enough get through that it is an issue. Should there be more or less scrutiny of the people coming into our country to live? That is the basis of our coded immigration policy that is being ignored. mspart

I'm guessing Schiff couldn't think of anything to say after that!! Ha ha. I'm not a big fan of Schiff. He's a conniving worm in my opinion who has no morals whatsoever and will do anything to get in the limelight. Granted there are other politicos the same, but Schiff is the biggest offender for me. I hope he loses his Senate race. Surely there has to be someone smarter than him in CA that can show everyone who he really is. mspart

Not just figuratively, literally. He said he had proof Trump colluded with the Russians. The reason he has not disclosed his proof is because he doesn't have any. He lied straight to everyone in Congress and the American people. Here is a funny: Schiff on Twitter: “Elon Musk calls himself a free speech absolutist, to justify turning a blind eye to hatred and bigotry on Twitter. But when journalists report unfavorable news, they are banned without warning. The devotion to free speech is apparently not that absolute. But the hypocrisy is,” Musk on Twitter responding: “Thankfully, you lose your chairmanship very soon. Your brain is too small,” The truth cuts to the core!! mspart

Please enlighten us all. Perhaps we are missing something. mspart

Or pretty much ignore. Luchador - What does that article say? Perhaps there are other outlets with similar information. mspart

Did we expect anything else? mspart

Certainly not on that shop at that time. mspart

What I can't find is what his sentence was. Did he do his 10 years or was it 20-30 years and he got out in 10. Don't know. Unfortunately it took 3 lives to get him behind for the rest of his life. mspart

Government interfering with people's speech as evidenced by the twitter files, lefts are howling that Trump will break democracy if let back on Facebook as if the former won't. The inability to distinguish between one and the other is astounding. Perhaps they can distinguish and choose not to. mspart

Yep, I've seen this too. They just want to do takedowns. mspart

Agreed. Yes, this happens in MFS too. I think 20 seconds should be given if the person on top is actually actively trying something. Par terre should be emphasized way more. It's how you score after the takedown. Watching early Sadulaev should be mandatory. mspart

How long was that price drop? Oil from the reserve was good for only a few days consumption. mspart

Is he up to no good or is he prepared for a ne'er do well? mspart

BP - Yep, you are living on the edge!!! Ha! mapart

Is this supposed to excuse Illinois for allowing a dangerous felon involved in double murder to go in 10 years. I suppose his sentence must have been reduced for good conduct after assaulting a prison official. Now he has killed 3 more. Hopefully the same mistake is not made. For the want of >$40k/year, 3 people are dead. That sounds like a good trade eh? I'll bet some bean counter said, "chances are it won't happen so we should save the money and hope it doesn't. Probably won't." Unfortunately it does happen more often than we would want to believe. https://www.brookings.edu/opinions/the-numbers-dont-lie-its-the-hard-core-doing-hard-time/ mspart

Hi BP, No that would not be unconstitutional. I thought you were referring to outlawing firearms. I don't think guns are allowed in Singapore. mspart

Atlanta. 5 antifa were arrested in connection with the planned riot after a fellow antifa shot a cop and was killed as a result. 5 antifa arrested with explosives on them. Only one was from Georgia and he was from Macon, not even near Atlanta, Fulton County or DeKalb county. These folks somehow found their way to Atlanta for this event. This is domestic terrorism that fortunately got squished before too much damage happened by the brave Atlanta police force. One from Maine, One from WI, one from NB, one from CA, one from GA (Macon). Hopefully, the full extent of the law is used against them. They need to be locked up for a very long time. mspart

Removing oil from the Strategic Oil Preserve (SOP) does not lower prices sufficiently. All it does is lower our cache of oil for a time of real trouble. And I believe that is a National Defense issue like sending all our manufacturing overseas is a National defense issue. Balance that out. What is up the D's sleeve when SOP is drained to zero? mspart

He was in jail for home invasion that ended up with 2 of the residents killed in 2009. He was sentenced in 2012. The trigger puller was sentenced to life. Salas apparently was not. He served 10 years approx. During that time he assaulted a prison officer. That should have added time to his sentence. So Illinois let out a person that was involved in a home invasion that ended up in murder. And he gets to go free in 10 years. He learned a lot from his partner apparently. Cold bloodedly killed 3 people and kidnapped a 4th. Yeah, I'd say Illinois has some issues with their justice system. mspart

Not to mention it would be unconstitutional. mspart

Is this about the former FBI guy or about Mike? Yes, I think everyone can agree that this guy and anything he did should be investigated. Possibly not for his role with Trump though, we know that was all on the up and up. mspart
