It started with a mock ‘slave trade’ and a school resolution against racism. Now a war over critical race theory is tearing this small town apart.

If you've never been to this vacation destination, you should go.  It's a beautiful place. 

The interaction between the grandmother and grandson at the end was so revealing.  Even family discounted that young man's experience with racism.

So Jared Kushner wants to start an investment firm.

You would have to be a stark raving, bonkers, loony tunes, to take investment advice from Kushner!

You should start that campaign then. Find an attorney that will help you with the legal language and get it going.  

I'm a Nazi looking white man, I practically never have problems. 

Doesn't mean that I don't feel for others. They need to take the initiative. I suggested a solution. I'm tired of trying to help people who won't help themselves.

Is America the most corrupt industrialized country in the world? 

I think it is! 

Wealthy people pay no taxes, none whatsoever. There are so many schemes available to hide your money especially for the stock ownership class. CEOs have had a 1200% rise in their salaries in the past fifteen years, whereas US have had a 15% rise. Does anyone see the income disparity? 1200-15%!!

Now if business owners got that rise I wouldn't have a problem. But smarmy, charming brown nosers which most CEOs are! No way! 

We had TWO ELECTED HOUSE MEMBERS , Swallwell and Schumer's phone data given to the justice Dept by Apple from illegal investigations by the Trump's administration because they were investigating Trump and has Biden's administration done ANYTHING AS YET? 

If you can weaponize the justice Dept to go after your adversaries as Trump did and the incoming administration does nothing about it, 

I say, WE ARE THE MOST CORRUPT INDUSTRIALIZED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!

Seriously, man! You actually need me to prove that to you? 

Are you wealthy? 

Say you got options to the tune of $50 million. After your tax attorney gets done, you now have to pay about 15% on the dividends. You borrow a couple of million at 2% interest and invest at 13% guaranteed! Do you still think that you pay taxes? Properties, depreciation, fees, plus like most wealthy people, you buy everything in some form via a subsidiary. Do you still think that they pay taxes? 

80% of stock owners are white and college grads. 95% of the money is owned by about. 1%. 

Do some of your own research if you are interested and you will learn more!

Its not about me being interested or not.   I just know how to tell when someone is full of crap.

Unless that someone is named Trump...in that case you would argue that not only is Trump not full of crap but that the crap that we all can see and smell  is not really crap at all.  It's almost like you forget that we experienced your devotion to Trump before. We know that you believe and trust in what Trump says, even when that belief is in direct opposition to reality, your faith in Trump and his sycophants is deep and strong. 

I mean, you even believe that the Mueller investigation and report exonerated Trump. That's not evidence of knowing when someone is full of crap. That's evidence of gullibility.

That's not how it works.  You made the claim, you need to source it.

Really? A Trump supporter? Well, you do have experience. 

I love how you defend the wealthy when they are bending you over the proverbial! 

Evolution proves there's a God. Who else would design such an elegant system? Someone is putting the broomstick up your Khyber and you are cheering them on. Good for you and thanks for your support!

It's not a claim when it's fact. If you are interested, then do the research. Because we all know how generous the wealthy are with their taxes! 

Ireland? Multi Nationals? Tax attorneys? Off Shore banking? Bahamas, Cayman Islands, Panama Papers? I wonder what are these things about?

So MyPillowGuy Lindell, is having a beef with Fox News now! 

I think that Fox Noise and the others spewing disinformation are becoming aware that the FTC is putting them on notice. Lina Khan and Van Loo are very serious and immensely educated people and they recognize the dangers of facebook and the like. Hopefully they recognize how evil Zuckerberg and Murdoch are! Those two IMO are the most dangerous mass murderers in history, if you realize that with their organizations, how many people have died from their business practices! 

Zuckerberg especially scares the living daylights out of me and I hope Biden's administration will break up facebook and force his resignation. Consider how poorly educated he is and with no life experience whatsoever and he runs the most powerful information platform in the world, plus his board is so sycophantic that they don't regulate him at all and he's a sociopath! He's a toddler with tantrums and he's unregulated! 

One thing you have to give Biden big credit for, is he's picked some amazing people for his administration! If he breaks Sinema and Manchin and removes the filibuster and stacks the Supreme Court, America will be unstoppable! I really can't see anything standing in our way from being the greatest country ever! China is going to implode and India will take years to recover from Covid and Pegasus. That leaves only us, standing!

Never elect a republican again until they come to their senses or legislation is enacted to prosecute their recent behaviors. Break up Google, Amazon, facebook and Apple!
