Let’s be clear… they’re not accusations by the committee…they’re findings. Evidence was presented. Accusations by others made. That evidence and accusation was evaluated and found credible. It was a finding, which makes all of this even more problematic. While not a trial, it wasn’t an accusation.

But to my eye, there is absolutely zero requirement to render any aid to the federal government. Now, you can't stand in the way of the law being enforced... but you're not required to assist them either. Which means, not a single dollar or hour of state or city money needs to go to it.

Here... have a cookie... oh gee thank you. ???? Wow. I'm surprised he didn't drop his pants and ask her to comment on his schlong. :P

Prosecuted for what? Has anyone actually articulated a law they'd be breaking if they failed to assist the federal government?

The US is already unpredictable. The American People elected a felon, who at the time of his election, was indicted on espionage & election fraud charges. I mean, how predictable is that? If anything, after Jan 20, we're more predictable. We're fucking over everyone. No questions asked.

I heard he taught the lepers to sing and kicked the winning touchdown for Notre Dame too… all while he was curing cancer and saving Private Ryan. I mean the guy is busy bro.

I think Jennings is a fuckin idiot. When beef becomes 300 dollars a pound because JBS has no workers… let’s see how elastic the American consumer is then. When shelves a bare because agriculture collapses; When the docks stop; when stocks tank over this nonsense. Then we’ll see. #morons #trump

But this is why we have courts. And it’s certainly not illegal to report on the issue. And it’s certainly not libel to report on it either. And if they report without malice, even if it’s wrong, that too is not libel. Mace would do well to remember that. She’s a public official.

Look I have no idea what happened here;just find it bonkers lately how everyone throws out threats with zero concept. Everyone talks libel with no understanding of that term. Mace looks pretty assault free in that video. The handshake can’t have been all that traumatic. It’s all just silly.

I hate to break it to everyone, given the odds, we probably have had over 100 homosexual CMOH recipients, 600 DSC recipients, and 5K Silver Star recipients. I'll take that any day over a man who is an alleged rapist and alcoholic, & with a dubious service record. This guy can fuck off. #hegseth

See I always felt this too... legalizing #doob. I was always told to shut up. LOL! Now I'm not a #pothead. I get why people wanna do #weed. But let's not kid ourselves saying it's somehow fine. Is it worse than #tobacco? I suspect so. Is it worse than booze? I suspect so. I don't have an answer.

Luckily for you, I didn't rely on this statement to her (Nancy Mace's) detriment... did you make this statement with deliberate malice? :P (LOL!) Just once, I'd love if a member of Congress cracked open a lawbook before cracking their mouth open. :P (NYT v. Sullivan.)

Well I will say this about Orange Hitler, he picked the right woman for the job. If spreading lies is the objective, she's a goddamned Olympian at it.
