Doubt the FBI is going to be much help since they were busy digging a hole to cover a laptop full of child porn to help Biden win the election.

I have a friendly bet for $100 that Tubberville wins by 10+ on election day. 100% chance the Dems are losing that Senate seat.

I think we need to parse his statement. He has taken every available opportunity to harm Trump. Hell, he voted to impeach the man.

Romney is saying he will vote and NOT THAT HE WILL VOTE FOR THE NOMINEE.

At this point I'd count him more as a NO unless we find a Mormon woman.

If she doesn't win it will be an absolute tragedy. What a sharp candidate. Baltimore would be so lucky.

Does anyone have a link to a Biden quote or video? That would be rich.

First it was "It doesn't happen"

Numerous people arrested all over the country, convicted, went to prison.

Then it was "It doesn't happen enough to effect an election"

Literal election officials tasked with maintaining the integrity of our election so we don't turn into a banana republic are arrested, convicted, and will "probably" go to prison.

Now it's "mail ballots to every person that's ever been alive in the history of [insert swing state name] and we'll just see whatever the fuck happens"

People don't go around admitting to fraud. It's an impossible metric to quantify. What is more likely: (1) that it happens consistently and we don't catch it because of incompetent government or (2) that it's never happened in any meaningful way.

We don't test asymptomatic people because they don't have symptoms at all. In order to do what the NYT wants the literal entire US population would need to be tested. I imagine we'd get the results of that somewhere around November 4th.

Leftist: The Administration has tampered with the CDC and ruined their credibility.

Me: Is there any proof of that beyond your wild conspiracy theory that trump is simultaneously the dumbest person in the world yet smart enough to infiltrate the CDC with people who change irrefutable statistics? The same man who has surrounded himself with dozens of leakers who wrote books about everything from his childhood to his scoops of ice cream has finally found silent ninjas to takeover the CDC despite the fact he has not replaced one single solitary employee?

926A federal statute covers this. Next to impossible for feds to convict on it.

You're correct. Here is a quick self-defense primer:

https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/939/III/48#:~:text=While%20there%20is%20no%20statutory,with%20his%20or%20her%20person.

Kyle used deadly physical force. He "may not intentionally use force which is intended or likely to cause death or great bodily harm unless the actor reasonably believes that such force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself."

Kyle is not allowed to use deadly physical force to defend property. That's pretty much a universal truth. Someone steals your car or busts a window you can't just go shoot them in the head. The question is was the deadly physical force used to protect the car lot or him? He didn't shoot the people before they entered the lot. He shot them when they were charging at him. There is a violent riot going on and buildings are being set on fire around the city. Did he think the guy was coming to ask for a cigarette? Kyle's belief was reasonable he was about to be assaulted given the totality of the circumstances.

He doesn't have to show anyone intended to kill him. Only that his belief of great bodily harm was reasonable.

Are you somewhere you're lawfully allowed to be? In this kid's case yes. He was asked by a property owner to protect his property. He wasn't trespassing. He wasn't on public property. More on this later.

Are you the initial aggressor? No. Video evidence. The State can argue all they want that he drove 30 miles looking for a fight but if that's the case then why did he wait for the rioters to come to the property he was protecting to start shooting? He waited until they got close enough to harm him before he started shooting? Nonsense. No merit to that position if the State takes it.

Were you engaged in an unlawful activity? No. Felons are precluded from owning guns/possessing them BUT when engaged in self-defense (in most jurisdictions - I'm not admitted in Wisconsin so if someone can correct me that would be helpful) even a felon is allowed to use a firearm in self-defense. In this country we elevate a person's right to life above a regulatory scheme to prevent firearm ownership by felons. He is not required to just lay down and die. This is the State's ONLY hope if they have a chance at conviction.

Under Wisconsin law "[w]hile there is no statutory duty to retreat, whether the opportunity to retreat was available goes to whether the defendant reasonably believed the force used was necessary to prevent an interference with his or her person."

This kid was not concealing his weapon, he was openly carrying it and being interviewed on TV and talking to police officers. Concealed laws don't apply to him.

Wisconsin permits open carry for people over the age of 18. This was kid 17. If I were his lawyer I'd laugh and say sure we'll plead guilty to a misdemeanor for unlawfully open carrying a firearm goodbye.

He possessed the rifle before it became necessary for defense so odds are he's guilty of unlawfully open carrying a firearm. Man that $600 fine is really gonna smart. Meanwhile multiple families are left paying for funerals of rioters because they fucked around and found out.

Definitely not one single WAP in the entire DNC besides maybe Schumer who could pass as one himself.

I appreciate the sentiment because every time a conservative business does anything, or a business owner posts something the left doesn't like, or a person puts a trump flag on their boat and gets doxed...the left tries to destroy that person's livelihood. It's tyranny.

I know I'm going to get downvoted to the shadow realm for this but I just don't think the President should be in the business of picking winners and losers in a capitalist system in an overt way like this. Just let other people friendly to the cause do it. Trot out some random jabroni just like the left does. Goodyear is based in Ohio, which we need, and has 64k employees.

As someone who has never set foot in America he certainly has a high sense of entitlement as to his portion of the American pie. He started trying to come here ten years ago when he was 18? He spent a decade trying to come to America and failed since Trump has been President for 3.5 of those years (with Obama being the others). Fail that much and we don't want you. Deport.

I hope everyone remembers that race is a social construct and decides to identify as a black person for business and tax purposes.

This might have been answered but I couldn't find it: what type of body cam was your buddy wearing and where do I buy it? It's clearly not conspicuous because it's under his shirt and maybe around his waist. I've never seen one like that.

I see what you're saying but then the argument becomes voters within the State are having the weight of their votes manipulated by voters outside of the State. Citizens of California controlling the citizens of Georgia. I don't see that passing constitutional muster.

The argument the left always raises is that districts are drawn to "water down" their votes by - for example - putting all the blacks in one single district. The left will have to engage in some pretty hefty double speak to say that SCOTUS aired in striking down the pre-clearance portion of the voting rights act but SCOTUS did the right thing by allowing states to water down the citizen's votes by counting people that don't even live within that State.

I take this to mean the interstate compact is donezo.

Let's say NC gets a majority Dem legislature that signs on to the compact and the governor agrees. Then a Presidential election rolls around and the State goes R. There is no lawful way for the electors to choose to be anything but R. The State can penalize them.

One of the questions will be "Ok well what if the elector says coolstorybro I'll pay the fine and vote for the D anyway"?

I think the route there is to say the punishment should be removal of the elector and replacement with the first alternate and so on down the line until the elector agrees to vote in-line with the majority of the State's voters.

Edit: I don't think the NC government could say "we factor California's popular vote into determining the weight given to a person's vote in NC". Talk about 1-person 1-vote, sheesh.
