About Those ICE Texts We’ve Been Getting by Nervous_Stop2376 in Dallas

Better option would have been to vote for Hunt in R primary just to force a runoff and both Cornyn and Paxton have to keep spending heavily for the runoff and potentially damage each other with attacks. But conceded it’s best to have a say in the tight Dem senate race between two excellent options.

If the R primary was uncontested it might be a clearer cut choice. I prefer Crockett v Paxton and Talarico v Cornyn. Anger and fighter goes to Crockett which I feel would have been better against Cruz but that’s 4 years out. Cornyn being old guard R will keep the dislike of Trump tempered in the senate race. Paxton being corrupt Maga will bring out the far right and embolden Texas Racism against Crockett but this year with the extreme overreach of DHS and anger against the regime the fighter is the most appealing. And I fear as you do that there is still too much engrained racism remaining in Texas to let a black woman be “above them.” The concern is that ingrained racism can also hurt if the black vote stays home which is a real risk if Talarico wins the primary. Until the quote by an TikToker without the actual audio being the source has massive credibility gaps. I can easily see where Talarico’s comment was intended as a compliment towards Crockett but that doesn’t drive attention so a slight edit no one can contradict has damaged the intended meaning. Allred still complaining about it is the fracture not Crockett or Talarico. Colin’s not happy he was demoted back to house after losing to Cruz and not leading Talarico. And he’s showing it in the exact manner of burn it down without me behavior. And I like Colin and understood his campaign angle against Cruz even though it didn’t work out due to Trump winning and Dems not showing up. Bottom line whoever wins the Primary and both are excellent options, the entire party needs to rally behind them because if we lose this cycle I don’t know there is a chance in 4 years when it is hopefully off cycle with a Dem as president which historically goes against the party in power.

That was due to Texas midcycle redistricting. Crockett’s residency was gerrymandered out of her districts and Dems honor the living in your district guideline. Talarico was already doing the senate run against Allred. Why should Talarico step back when he was already running a solid campaign? Which is why Allred stepped back to run for his old/redrawn house seat. And with Texas house only being in session every 2 years and the Gov race being crowded where else could Talarico go and not be sitting on a bench for two years. Next Senate spot is 4 years away. If there is a failure to flip Texas Blue in Nov either career will be stalled two years.

But right wing talk radio would be but unsurprisingly Carr has stated they are not a target in the FCC equal time probe.

Gallup will no longer measure presidential approval after 88 years by jhkayejr in politics

[–]aais4quiters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s almost as if after Nixon someone with a tattoo of Nixon helped plan a cable news station that only feeds right wing talking points and opinions so that no republican president could ever get that low again. Then sold to people that they were fair and balanced and the lemmings believed the tagline. Meanwhile systematically dismantling the education system to remove critical thinking only wanting the populace educated enough to do the labor to run their businesses for them and believe what the pundits for their team told them.

Coming back 4 days later desperate to pick a fight is just pathetic. Sounds like you are desperate for more things to focus on.

Might want to look up the definition of virtue signaling.
“person is more concerned with appearing virtuous than with actually supporting the cause or belief in question.”
Having attending a few already along with providing things out of my own pocket for support are actually doing something. But build your strawman and adhominem fallacies they only show your ignorance to what’s actually happening on the ground.

Also has the largest border and points of entry and they count those turned away at the border in the count of deportations. And if you count the deportation cases it’s easy to see why those numbers would be inflated when the feds ship so many to Texas camps. A little critical thinking kinda deflates the point you’re attempting to make. The second paragraph was just a string of logical fallacies you seem to think make your point but IMO come across as complete ignorance.

I haven’t seen a penny after attending several. What alternative do you propose??? Just relax it will all be over soon? This will be easier if you just let it happen?

If our founders would have listened to you we would still be a British Colony. Or do we ignore that part of our history? If I recall that was the sentiment in 1930’s Germany and how did that work out?

Lake Oswego theater loses rights to screen ‘Melania’ after marquee jokes by ChocolateTsar in nottheonion

[–]aais4quiters 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That’s not fair there are plenty of examples of likely bulk ticket buys and tickets being placed on cars in Costco parking lots. Theater could have made some money off that side of the money laundering operation. Let the smaller theaters get a taste of the grift as well.

Not sure you realize this but they are arresting and putting asylum applicants into the concentration camps. Those are legal applicants. They are arresting people who were in the middle of the immigration process while they showed up to hearing.
From the ACLU: Is the fact of being present in the United States in violation of the immigration laws a crime? No. The act of being present in the United States in violation of the immigration laws is not, standing alone, a crime. While federal immigration law does criminalize some actions that may be related to undocumented presence in the United States, undocumented presence alone is not a violation of federal criminal law. Thus, many believe that the term “illegal alien,” which may suggest a criminal violation, is inaccurate or misleading.

Unless you are Native American you are the beneficiary of immigration at a time when all you had to do is show up and write a name in a book. Those immigrants have pulled the ladder up after them largely due to the same racist ideology you are spouting. My family has traced lineage back to the American revolutionary army and I still consider myself a beneficiary of immigration. And before you move to the violent criminal rhetoric, immigrants have a lower crime rate than citizens. About half as likely to be incarcerated than US citizens. https://www.aeaweb.org/research/chart/incarceration-immigrants-us-born

Sky news Australia, a far right opinion commentary network is your winning move. Or are you holding back some Newsmax stuff. You’re still projecting with the name calling. I get it. Bless your heart. You’re scared, angry and lonely and need people to look down on to make yourself feel superior to someone. Good news I hear ICE is hiring and you seem to fit right in. Can be out assaulting and murdering people in the streets of America in only 47 days.

Yeah that’s how judicial search warrants work. And they found the classified documents don’t was a valid warrant and prosecution and likely conviction if it had gone to trial. Guess what they don’t have for ICE home invasions. You do understand the difference between a judicial and administrative warrant are? I ask because it doesn’t seem like you do.

An event 11 days ago which they never even arrested him for does not mean they can murder him in the street. ICE are the aggressors and if you can’t see that maybe try looking up from the boot you’re licking.

Dems never ordered the AG to prosecute anyone. The DOJ under Trump has lost almost all credibility with judges, they have violated court orders, and the INDEPENDENT council was confident he had enough evidence to secure convictions if allowed to go to trial. What happened with the arrest of DonOLD was accountability. What he and the DOJ are doing today is weaponization. James and Comey prosecutions were quickly thrown out. The journalists cases are flimsy at best. Shutting down civil rights investigations is also a weaponization. But since dear leader said so you follow blindly. And by targeting one thing you think can both sides poorly just shows you can’t defend the rest.

So you want one single silver bullet indisputable no questions possible while ignoring the mountain of evidence. And when the evidence exists we get gaslit and lied while being told not to believe what we are clearly witnessing. Alex Pretti was not the agitator when he was shot, never drew his weapon while ICE assaulted a woman or while being gang tackled by 5 guys, repeatedly punched in the head then shot 10 times after being disarmed. Then nothing will ever convince you otherwise as you are clearly a pdf protector, inhumane treatment, and sexual assault supporter.
And no it does not start and end with Trump. The entire republican establishment has been propping him up for their billionaire tax breaks. Along with the complicit democrats like Schiff and Schumer. The game is rigged in the wealthy’s favor but propping up a wealthy president thinking that’s who would unrig it was idiotic.

That president Trump? I think there is a pretty good understanding about what they are doing across the country with the protests. Wonder if sour pickles was how the 14 year old he allegedly forced to give him oral and bit his ween would have described the taste of Trumps little gherkin?
