Comments by "Barry On" (@barryon8706) on "Black Conservative Perspective" channel.

  1. "Not a terrorist event." "IEDs found in the car.," What? They thought he was on his way to do some demolition and took a shortcut through a crowd?
    303
  2. Shaq's 100% right. Individual liberty is an interest that has to be taken into account.
    291
  3. I talked to a fan of Biden about what he's accomplished. The answer was, "Not being Trump." He didn't have anything else.
    266
  4. I think the name "Democratic Party" has been ironic for decades.
    140
  5. I saw a lot of left-leaning talking heads say they didn't understand how someone could vote for a convicted felon, impeaches so many times, etc. This is why. The justice legal system lost the confidence of a lot of voters.
    131
  6. The failure of CNN makes me a little proud of the American people. We're more than a little beat up, but we can still show some discernment. CNN used to be a respectable news source; maybe it can be again.
    125
  7. I already didn't fly United. Who wants to fly a racist airline?
    114
  8. "And as women, our intuitions are never wrong." We've entered post-rational discourse.
    41
  9. The left left a lot of people behind. RFK and Tulsi Gabbard, for examples.
    41
  10. She was 200% wrong. He wasn't committing a crime, and even if it were a crime, 911 is for emergencies, and this wasn't an emergency. Her entitlement could have cost someone else response time an an actual emergency.
    39
  11.  @sthubbins4038  The unemployment isn't a bad point. As to ending the war in Afghanistan, we'd already had plans for that, and I wouldn't call the execution of that one something to Biden's credit. Unless you can spin the release of tanks and helicopters to the Taliban as easing the US arrmed forces' maintenance burden.
    28
  12. That's self-determination. They don't like the way a place is being run, they walk away. Nothing wrong with that.
    21
  13. This is like an in-depth investigation to find out whether or not water is wet.
    14
  14. The timing of this is really curious.
    14
  15. You don't know her.
    13
  16. I'm afraid that DA might be exactly the kind that Memphis voters want
    13
  17. They didn't want children, and are finally taking responsibility for it. And the problem is...?
    12
  18. They need a new city council.
    11
  19. A lot of them wanted anybody but Trump in 2016. Some wanted another president who'd play the politics game, some just didn't like his brash style.
    10
  20. That is an underrated comment. 😊
    9
  21.  @sthubbins4038  Trump didn't remove the troops, but he scheduled it for what would have been his second term. The troops were supposed to withdraw with the rest of our people getting out, and the materiel as well.
    8
  22. If he wanted to accept a donation and softball her, that's one thing. Doing that secretly is something else entirely. People have a right to be upset.
    6
  23. I think they think they have a monopoly on ideas, and they'll never stop resenting evidence to the contrary.
    6
  24. Time for a contempt of court charge.
    6
  25. I don't want a civil war. I'm not saying we're going to have a civil war. A civil war would be goddamned nasty, and it wouldn't be just the terrorists getting hurt and killed. Civil wars aren't very civil. But I am saying that if they push us into a civil war -- if they are saying that they will use massive violence to get their way -- then I am prepared to fight it. It would be better to have a civil war than to see the dream of individual liberty die in the land that did so much to raise it up. It's not just a fight for America. America itself is worth my life, but this fight is for more.
    6
  26. Sorry, @TheReneex. There's a lot more hate in ther comments in this thread than I expected. We have too many people on every side wanting to lump everyone else together by skin color and calling foul when it's done to themselves, and a mother being responsible is jumped on as if she were automatically irresponsible because of her race. I think race relations haven't been this bad since the 60s.
    4
  27.  @PP-rq7ly  United Airlines discriminated by race (among other things).
    4
  28. White isn't a color, technically. Black isn't either, though, so that's going to mess up the whole "people of color" description just as much. There's no wavelength of light corresponding to either one, white being a mixture of several (or all) the visible wavelengths and black being the absence of light entirely. Of course white people are a light pinkish-brown, so you could say white people are people of color if you stopped calling them white. It's all so verrrry simple. 😊
    4
  29. That's some spin. I'm honestly impressed! If I ever need someone to sell sand to the Sahara, I'm going to at least consider him. His polls are bad? well, the voters must just have unparalleled expectations of him, and he's proud that his administration is so wonderful that voters can unreasonably not like him. 😂
    4
  30. I guess that's the downside. I take a pretty libertarian view on drugs -- what you put into your own body is your business. But if the rest of us have to pay for addicts who want to spend their entire waking lives blitzed out of their mind, that's different.
    3
  31. We can't handle all the world's poor. Most of these immigrants aren't bad people, but we can't afford to take them all in.
    3
  32. This makes it harder for people to make an honest living, too.
    3
  33. The forces of tolerance
    3
  34. The people complaining think everyone secretly hires by race. They don't seem able to fathom doing otherwise. That's pretty troubling.
    3
  35. Disgraceful, IMHO. I can sympathize with the drive for a father to try to help out his son, but the POTUS should strive for higher standards. If Biden strove for higher standards, he came short.
    3
  36. Defund NPR. It shouldn't be getting tax dollars.
    3
  37. Auto break-ins, generally.
    3
  38. I'm OK with harm reduction. But equity is just "equality of outcome" and that has a really bad track record. Why not equalize crack sentencing with other cocaine sentencing?
    3
  39. Good. They need to be held accountable.
    2
  40. I don't think she should have gotten that postcard. But I do think the purpose was to get her to think, and it probably didn't work.
    2
  41. Next election: marijuana is mandatory!
    2
  42. I've rarely seen so many people outraged at equal treatment.
    2
  43. M.E.O.W.G.A.
    2
  44. If she was drunk it doesn't mean she's alcoholic. My guess is medication, though.
    2
  45. I think this kid will have a better outcome than most offspring of single mothers, but there will probably still be a gap there.
    2
  46. They're forgiving, but they won't forgive people for things that they never did. Huh?
    2
  47. It's not fat-shaming, it's laziness-shaming.
    2
  48. On the bright side, if Lightfoot finds Henyard wanting it might convince people who would otherwise be reluctant to get onboard. And for all her faults, Lightfoot wasn't as bad as Mayor Brandon.
    2
  49. They seem to be using LGBTQ to push a lot of sexual stuff that they wouldn't allow for straight sex. It's kinda suspect.
    2
  50. Fighting irrational hatred with facts. God bless him, and I hope it works. Schools in Oregon have dropped some of their graduation requirements because of "equity." That makes those diplomas worse for everyone.
    2
  51. Roe v Wade was a bad decision, IMHO. They made up a constitutional right (privacy) and applied it very narrowly (abortion) while not even addressing the personhood of the unborn. Now the unborn is by definition not an American citizen by birth (on account of it hasn't happened yet) or naturalization (it hasn't filled out the paperwork), but the law is supposed to apply to non-citizens within the US as well.
    2
  52. We already knew the devil went down to Georgia. Now we know why!
    2
  53. No need for an apology, my friend. Collective responsibility by race is part of the let's problem. Also, I'm mostly German, so there's that...
    2
  54. Eric Adams is the mayor of the biggest city in America. Where does he have to be before he can stop pulling out that victim card to deflect?
    2
  55. I was wondering if I could identify as Asian because Europe is just the western part of Asia, but now it looks like that won't help. I guess this does help in that it suggests against some of this equity movement being anti-White. It doesn't make it less wrong, it's just wrong for different reasons.
    2
  56. I think they've often been called Asians for a long time, but not East Asians (Japanese, Chinese, etc.)
    2
  57. That's being pretty decent.
    2
  58. How expensive can it be to go to Canada? People do that without any proper paperwork all the time.
    2
  59. If there is a meter for entitlement, this would break it.
    2
  60. If someonebody's tresspassing, I shouldn't have to give them food too.
    2
  61. Cori Bush is a bigoted crazy lady. I hope she comes back from the abyss, but I'm just as happy that she won't be in congress during the process.
    2
  62. I don't want to assume she's a diversity hire, but she seemed marketed that way.
    2
  63. Where Trump told people to peacefully make sure their voices were heard?
    2
  64. Somebody needs to buy another house?
    2
  65. I think they were trying to get him to say something stupid.
    2
  66. If Elder were governor I might have stayed in California.
    2
  67. The meals now come in small, medium, large, and yuge.
    2
  68. I'm going to reclaim my manhood! Nothing can stop me! As long as my wife says it's OK.
    2
  69.  @vinnyg101  It's healthier to have a sense of humor. If we don't, we end up like the purple-haired fragile adult children of the left, screaming in their cars.
    2
  70. Maybe stores will stay in neighborhoods.
    2
  71. I think he's the worst president in my lifetime. And I'm older than dirt.
    1
  72. It's time (and past time) for her to re-examine her own assumptions. But she's in a movement where questioning the movement is considered a sign of istaphobism. I think that makes it hard for her to gradually move away from her faith.
    1
  73. The View is mostly intra-rectal. They've made Trump a boogeyman in their heads and cannot believe that anybody else sees things differently.
    1
  74. It's still cause for a little hope. They haven't given up yet.
    1
  75. "Dictator on speed dial." Part of the job is to be diplomatic with terrible people. If Walz can't understand that, or can't do that, then there's another reason he shouldn't be in the oval office.
    1
  76. Double standards are their standard.
    1
  77. My take is, if you're quoting someone and not doing it maliciously, there's nothing to apologize for.
    1
  78. One, I think. Someone who looked like Ironheart was hired to write a few issues, and I heard she did a good job in making the character actually likeable.
    1
  79. We are living in interesting times.
    1
  80. This has more twists than a Twizzler.
    1
  81. The expression on that man's face. I'm sure it's been on mine from time to time, but I'm glad it wasn't this time.
    1
  82. I've love to be on Parler now, but I don't want to give my phone number out. Some services (like my bank or Amazon) will send me SMS messages to verify that it's me accessing my account. if it weren't for that, I'd be all over Parler. Especially if it makes Brian Stelter mad.
    1
  83. Kamala Harris insisted that Biden was racist until she got the VP nod. When asked about that she explained that she was just campaigning.
    1
  84. Obama killed Americans with drone strikes. No trial, just "that guy is working with terrorist group X, and I want him gone." Should Obama be on trial for murder? It's not like he could have arrested those people. There's a reason for this kind of immunity.
    1
  85. People who value democracy so much that they want to prevent people from voting the way they want. We have too much rule of judges as is.
    1
  86. That was a good catch on the lawyers' part. Overall, people are way too free to scream racism without consequence. It's either a serious accusation or it's not, and if it is then it should be backed by evidence.
    1
  87. If glaciers retreat then you can get earthquakes. Parts of the U.S. are still rebounding from the last ice age. But we haven't had that much ice melt because of global warming. And as to eclipses...
    1
  88. Brandon makes me miss Lightfoot.
    1
  89. The NAACP used to be mostly sane. What happened?
    1
  90. The more deperate he becomes... In aspera, veritas.
    1
  91. "Deus vult" has been adopted by White supremacists, but that does't mean that people who use it are White supremacists. That's an assumption on her part. And that means she either considers racism as not a serious accusation, or she has no problem considering people guilty until proven innocent.
    1
  92. Nice shirt.
    1
  93. Someone's getting coal this year!
    1
  94. "Period. End of statement." Except she keeps talking. Funny, that.
    1
  95. She's a singer. She's allowed to have her opinion, just as the mailman, a plumber, or a computer programmer are allowed to have an opinion. And none of that matters to me.
    1
  96. Can she legally record all their conversations?
    1
  97. If she thinks famines started with colonization, she's either ignorant or just plan crazy.
    1
  98. Oprah is right in some ways, but they're all irrelevant. They don't actually address what Trump said.
    1
  99. Obama listened to people explain why they didn't want to vote for Harris, called them excuses, and substituted his own feelings for their *reasons*.
    1
  100. The CEO of the NAACP kept conflating equal treatment with discrimination. I wonder if he does that a lot.
    1
  101. You often cannot jail someone for robbery without breaking up families, either.
    1
  102. Hillary Clinton seems reflexively arrogant at times.
    1
  103. If they don't learn then they'll keep making the same mistakes, and they'll keep pushing the same divisive agendas that are just bad for America.
    1
  104. I hate to say it, but bring Lori Lightfoot back
    1
  105. "Trained Marxists" acting like most Marxists who gain power.
    1
  106. The non-binary drag queen part doesn't bother me, but the activist part does. The activists on the left tend to be racist, sexist, and increasingly divorced from reality.
    1
  107. I think BET has done OK, though nothing stellar. But entertainment is a much broader group of things than news.
    1
  108. "They will not find a White man guilty of killing a Black man in modern-day America." I guess she hasn't heard of George Floyd?
    1
  109.  @quentinmclean3950  It was put in place to discriminate against men and White people, and Asians in part to redress past discrimination against Black people and women. I assume that's what you're looking for? And... so?Are we supporting collective responsibility by racial category now? Are you really sure that's a road you want to go down?
    1
  110. So I find myself routing for Nancy Pelosi? It must be 2020.
    1
  111. I think the left has too many people who think money just appears.
    1
  112. If Biden didn't voluntarily drop out of the election, then he wasn't in charge of his campaign. Are we really supposed to believe that he was in charge of the office?
    1
  113. When has "Joy" ever hinted that she knows what fascism is?
    1
  114. My wife talked about moving to the greater Atlanta area, but she didn't want to actually live in Atlanta. Good call, I think. There's an entire suburb that wanted to leave and form its own city.
    1
  115. If pardons are granted, I think they lose 5th Amendment protections. They can't be punished then, but they can be investigated and the results made public.
    1
  116. They sound increasingly unhinged, and I doubt it's helping sway people to their side.
    1
  117. I'm old enough to remember when the NAACP sometimes made some sense. But that was a long time ago.
    1
  118. I like Tulsi a lot more than I like most democrats. If Tulsi or Young had won the election I'd be like "Eh, could be worse."
    1
  119. Appropos of nothing, I keep thinking Roland Martin looks a lot like Dom DeLuise. Not making fun of him there, it just looks striking to me. Actually appropos of something, he's a closed-minded jerk so invested in his own hatred that he'll do any mental gymnastics needed to avoid facing why people are doing what they're doing, even at risk of a lot of scorn and even their safety. I don't agree with the woke, but I can at least understand the motive of wanting to distance oneself from past sins and to see nobody left behind. I just prize individual liberty and equal treatment more.
    1
  120. They should have known they couldn't get away with it at the debate.
    1
  121. If I identify as plus-sized, can I get a free seat?
    1
  122. They'll call it equity.
    1
  123. How much is crime really down, and how much have people just given up reporting it?
    1
  124. Everybody but the administration knows it doesn't fight inflation.
    1
  125.  @MrsMeza330  They are leveling Gaza, but what else should Israel do? The people they need to stop are hiding among the civilians.
    1
  126. Waters is all wet.
    1
  127. Imagine a White caucus. Now imagine a White congressman being excluded for being left-wing.
    1
  128. The ignorance of those people is disheartening. Do they really think the POTUS is in charge of fighting domenstic abuse or police brutality?
    1
  129. Being fired does seem harsh, but that is a really important job for customer safety.
    1
  130. Expired license and registration. I don't know.
    1
  131. She may help people live longer, healthier lives by going away. Which is pretty sad, IMHO.
    1
  132. Some of them probably see this as equivalent to Christ coming down to Earth again and laughing at a joke told by Hitler. They adore few people more than Obama and despise few people more than Trump.
    1
  133. Shouldn't they want to see their "oppressors" leave? This is an opportunity for the NAACP to open up a grocery store and show everyone how it's done!
    1
  134. Is than an insurrection?
    1
  135. MLK and Malcom X disagreed on a lot, but I think they both would have slapped this man.
    1
  136. Flight attendants are there to keep you safer. All the other things they do is extra; their authority matches their main job.
    1
  137. That man should get some of his tax money back.
    1
  138. Wasn't this the plot to "Police Academy?"
    1
  139. I think Covid is real. I'll take a vaccine when it becomes available. But I think the general lockdown is excessive compared to protecting the most vulnerable, and that we'll be in recurring lockdowns until a vaccine is available and widely adopted because this virus isn't going away any time soon, as suggested by Europe's second wave.
    1
  140. The general healthcare outcomes of the UK and US are mostly not that different. In the U.S., you run out of money, and in the U.K. you run out of time, but at the end of the day there's not enough for everybody and it gets rationed one way or another. Government-run healthcare is more efficient, but then you can be denied healthcare for wrongthink on social media. As far as the View goes, they'd probably blame Trump for a rainy day.
    1
  141. I wonder if the GOP is taking a slower pace to better time a trial with the election.
    1
  142. CNN has dropped the ball so much it's covereed with grass stains.
    1
  143. I don't want a program trying to get more white and asian players in the league because I want people hired on talent. Ditto managers and coaches.
    1
  144. I can't be surprised at anything AOC says. Some Bernie supporters wanted gulags. The far left is completely intolerant of people with different opinions.
    1
  145. IIRC Spanish has Latino for males and Latina for females. Latinx is an attempt to de-gender the terms, made up by the kind of people who feel it is necessary to force another language into their own norms, while screaming about cultural imperialism.🙄
    1
  146. The chant about homophobia strikes me for one major reason -- it's so vague.
    1
  147. I'll give this to her: if she's leaving, she was probably sincere in her TDS.
    1
  148. If he did it, send him back to Guatemala in three different boxes. Sorry, that was somewhat harsh. He should be kept away from others to keep people safe. Beyond that, it's between him and God.
    1
  149. He thinks who is saying something is more important than what he says. He apparently has little grasp of logic.
    1
  150. Allowing people to burn the flag may be patriotic, but burning it is certainly not.
    1
  151. It sounds like people are waking up.
    1
  152. I'm going to throw big one into the mix: Trump should talk about making Puerto Rico a state. It voted for statehood once, but neither party has been anxious to open that can of worms, probably especially the GOP. But Latinos are the growth demographic in the U.S., and Trump is making inroads with them. If there is a time to get Latinos to re-evaluate their political alignment, that time is now.
    1
  153. Democratic voters don't much have obligation to a candidate who wasn't nominated democratically. The simple solution is they should change the name of the party to the "Do What We Tell You To Party"/
    1
  154. You know, I'm not gloating over this. I'm not angry, either. It's just sad to see it happen, when most of the people are probably honest, decent folk, but elections do have consequences, including unintended consequences.
    1
  155. She sounds a little bit awful.
    1
  156. I smell a presidential pardon of somebody.
    1
  157. More automation and less tourism coming to California. I don't have a good answer for a single parent with three kids trying to get by on minimum wage, I admit. She may not be smart enough to get a better-paying job.
    1
  158. Sometimes Newsom makes sense. Rarer than those solar eclipses, though.
    1
  159. It's going to take an outsider to do real house-cleaning.
    1
  160. From a practical point of view, Black people being a political monolith would not do Black people any good. Parties shouldn't be able to take their vote for granted. From the point of view of principle, "You look like this, so you have to vote the way I tell you to" is disgusting on a few levels.
    1
  161. They're not coming after Rogan for the n-bombs, IMHO. That's just an excuse.
    1
  162. I feel bad for a lot of them. They didn't all vote for their current politicians, and maybe some of those who want a little law and order just can't afford to leave.
    1
  163. Kamala said she thought Biden guilty of rape. After getting the VP nomination she explained that she hadn't thought that, and it was just campaigning. She can't be trusted when she''s campaigning.
    1
  164. Next: are teachers going to be allowed to bring rolled-up newspapers to enforce classroom discipline?
    1
  165. About 2% of Americans think the earth is flat. I swear to God I'm not making that up. I think it's coincidence but maybe there's some overlap!
    1
  166. It's Christmas and I'm going to be nice. I hope that he can grow as a person or, failing that, that he can find a line of work that better fits his talents and shortcomings. Merry Christmas, everyone!
    1
  167. Nobody's perfect. UBI is fairly to the left of my comfort zone, but when I think of it as an alternative to welfare it seems more palatable.
    1
  168. She's arrogant and twisted. I donated to Joe's campaign.
    1
  169. This is the most openly racist administration we've had in a long time.
    1
  170. I'm glad she's gone, but I still feel some sympathy for her. But if she believed half of what she says, she'd probably flee the country.
    1
  171. Nobody owes her a vote. She has to earn every one.
    1
  172. It's good to see Americans standing up for America. 👍
    1
  173. So much of what the left says is putting words into other people's mouths.
    1
  174. Good on her! I hope she wins that election.
    1
  175. If even Trudeau is getting a little red-pilled, the world really has turned upside down.
    1
  176. CNN was respectable, once upon a time. But that was a long time ago, and I'm not optimistic about it coming back.
    1
  177. More demand means higher prices unless there's more supply, barring extraordinary circumstances.
    1
  178. When someone asks him about the weather, does he go on about slavery, racism, and reparations?
    1
  179. That's fair. If she isn't happy here, she should go elsewhere. No hard feelings, sincerely. One of the more powerful ways to vote is to vote with your feet.
    1
  180. It sounds like Martin is saying not to listen to critics of any of the Democrats. Then how do they improve?
    1
  181.  @I_Stand_With_RussiaZOV  Targeted civilians with the goal of producing massive civilian casualties.
    1
  182. It's that typewriter hooked up to a TV, right?
    1
  183. Well, price controls are a policy, though a vague one. And probably a bad idea, according to most economists IIRC.
    1
  184. I'm OK with legalizing drugs as long as EMTs don't have to keep saving the users from ODs and as long as my tax money doesn't feed them. But if we're going to have these laws, then they should apply equally. Treat these guys like adults in any other drug distribution ring. And if they've been doing this for years then any claims of remorse should be looked at with a lot of skepticism.
    1
  185. I'm shocked! Shocked! Well, not that shocked.

  186. This sounds like Gotham City.

  187. I'm delighted the teacher exposed himself.

  188. This is the first time I've been happy to hear a little less Joy in the world.

  189. The never-ending quest for victimhood supremacy.
    1
  190. When I think crack I think Hunter. Why does Piker assume Black?
    1
  191. Is the far left seceeding from the rest of the left? Honest question. I don't even know if it would be a good thing or a bad thing.
    1
  192. I wish I could say I was surprised.
    1
  193. She says she shouldn't be denigrated unless convicted of a crime, then calls other people racist. Hello?
    1
  194. Trying to think what this could be a distraction from. Not that it must be, but it might be.
    1
  195. Eerie is right.
    1
  196. The Democratic party is schizophrenic right now. Biden and Pelosi don't really belong in the same party as AOC and Ilhan Omar. I'd like to see the latter running for office in some other country, maybe trying to convince the PRC to go back to socialism, but if wishes were horses... Trump shouldn't be in his own party, though. ANY party establishment would have a hard time fitting him in. That's a big part of why so many voters like him, and so many politicians hate him. Edit: Maybe Trump could take after Roosevelt and create a new Progressive / Bull Moose Party. Trump's more of a centrist than a lot of people give him credit for.

  197. The entire "don't talk to them" recipe gets you a dish of zealotry.

  198. Cori Bush helped keep me out of Missouri.

  199. Bring in Joe Rogan. 😀

  200. One horse pony? It's "one trick pony," Joe.
    1
  201. When someone says they don't care what the science is, they've left reason behind. You can question the science, doubt the science, but ignoring the science means the basis for rational discussion isn't there.😊
    1
  202. The way I see it, lower interest rates => more (borrowed) money into the economy => more inflation. But the inflation this causes will mostly be after the election.
    1
  203. What women's sport is as popular as men's? Tennis maybe, but Serna Williams being Black didn't hamper that. Beach volleyball, definitely, but there are extenuating circumstaces...
    1
  204. Didn't the Democrats try to secede before?
    1
  205. The very reason to have women's sports is to avoid situations like this.
    1
  206. I don't listen to Harris much, so when I say that I don't know what she takes responsibility for, it might just be ignorance on my part.
    1
  207. Johnson makes me want Lightfoot back.
    1
  208. I hope Michiganders remember this in 2022.

  209. They really need to raise their admission standards or lose some government funding.
    1
  210. Turn Gaza into a golf course? Wrong kind of bunkers.
    1
  211. I may be the first to say it, but probably not the first to think it. Can they get Lightfoot back??
    1
  212. If all the players are male, and he wants the coaches to represent them, does this mean no female coaches?
    1
  213. I've been told that every month is White History Month. Does that mean White people can do this every month?
    1
  214. What's really funny to me in all this is that some of the right (the one the left claims hates Black people) are saying Harris isn't Black. If the left is to be believed, the right should be saying not to vote for her because she IS Black. That said, I wish both sides would stop trying to decide who is or isn't Black.
    1
  215. It's more of "If you don't vote for me, you ain't Black."
    1
  216. We can't afford to have open borders. Even most people on the left understand that. Mayor Johnson either doesn't understand it, or doesn't care.
    1
  217. I can live without thin mints.
    1
  218. If electrons have been stolen from Americans, someone should be charged.
    1
  219. I try not to find them amusing, with some success. I mostly find them sad; so many of them seem unable to comprehend that a lot of us won't vote for or against someone because of identity.
    1
  220. What planet is she broadcasting from? Trump agrees with exceptions for rape and incest. Trump didn't storm anything.
    1
  221. He's awful. He's robbing a lot of children of a much happier future.
    1
  222. Just divide sports by sex. Problem solved.
    1
  223. Reading "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" out loud doesn't make you racist.
    1
  224. I don't want her to resign. This is one reason I'm such a strong believer in free speech: she told everybody something about herself that the voters needed to know. If her constituents still want her, that's on them. Regardless of her politican leanings, what kind of staged shooting requires a bullet to pass within a couple inches of someone's head when a nearby shot would have done just as well?
    1
  225. Considering how far left a successor to Pelosi probably would be, I'm going to grit my teeth and wish the best for Nancy Pelosi. AOC is a dimwit socialist, and she'd push for someone similar.
    1
  226. If she lied under oath I want Willis out of her job and get a reprimand from the bar, but not necessarily disbarred. If she subborned perjury and conspired to hide the truth, I think I at least want her law license suspended.
    1
  227. Waiting for Kamala to call for an end to the violence.
    1
  228. AOC is either dishonest or detached from reality.
    1
  229. You ever wonder if the sign language translator is really just making stuff up? Other than that, I'm not a fan of asking for a resignation until the facts come in. But I've seen this again and again, and it seems to always come with a resignation.
    1
  230. The debt worries me.. A lot of the federal budget goes to pay interest on that monster. I'm not an expert, however, and since I don't have kids and I'm over 50, maybe it'll be someone else's problem. BTW, having fun with those superpowers?
    1
  231. Don't lump all Blacks together unless you approve of the left lumping all Whites together.
    1
  232. If she's dirty (innocent until poven guilty!), what was her long-range plan? Did she think everyone would just go along with it?
    1
  233. First, Obama is attacking what he suspects were people's motives instead of actually attacking what people did. That's dishonest, deluded, or both. Second, statistically, a lot of people probably voted for Obama and then voted for Trump. I didn't think Obama was the worst president ever. But I lived through Jimmy Carter. Brrrr!
    1
  234. If she claims she's regretful, that merch should be valuable countering evidence.
    1
  235. People who don't understand why Trump is popular among Blacks vs. other GOP presidents should at least re-examine their own assumptions.
    1
  236. That's so sad. I hope they don't pull a Chicago. If this isn't a wake-up call, what would be?
    1
  237. Good! People need to take control away fom corrupt politicians.

  238.  @napoleonsmith7793  Was Palestine held captive? Was Palestine kept incommunicado? Was Palestine held as a bargaining chip? Israel has existed all that time on land that used to be populated mostly by Muslim Arabs from the Ottoman Empire, but trying to conflate that with victims of kidnapping is a big of a stretch.
    1
  239. To be fair, she knew what the Ds and Rs meant as far as Democrat and Republican. She didn't understand that the picture was showing her predictions vs. reality.

  240. I wonder if their tax base has taken a hit with businesses leaving.
    1
  241. That's exceptionally bad. It puts a lot of lives in danger.

  242. "It's other people's fault for not giving us money."

  243. Good! It sounds like people are waking up.

  244. It's sad, but not unexpected.

  245. Wonder what chance those kids have. Anyone can change, including her, but that's an uphill battle.
    1
  246. Re drugs, I'm OK with it being legal for people to do stupid things that only hurt themselves. If people who should know say, "Don't do drugs, it can mess you up," and someone gets messed up, well, the downsides happen to the right people instead of having to the taxpayer or civil liberties. The minimum wage... eh. I think that ends up helping less than claimed, and hurting less than claimed. For the flag, a nothing-burger. I don't fly the confederate flag, but I don't assume people who do are racist. The people behind the change will find something else to be outraged about before I'm done typing this sentence.
    1
  247. Innocent until proven guilty. But from the evidence I've seen, I think a "not guilty" verdict won't be easy to get.

  248. Eric Adams has me on a roller coaster. I guess the end result is I can't trust the man. Fortunately, I don't live in New York City, and I can't imagine anything that would get me there.
    1
  249. I'm man enough to find their commercial ridiculous.
    1
  250. Some on the left call speaking out against them "stochastic terrorism" because someone could be influenced to do violence. If they followed the same standards...
    1
  251. There are people on the left who will never see eye to eye with me (Eric Adams, Ana Kasparian) in values but will acknowledge reality, and there are those who will never see the world around them because they refuse to do so (Brandon Jonson, AOC). We can and should because it's good for America) to make common cause where we can with the former. Compromise isn't a dirty word, and in America we should expect to not always get everything we want.

  252. Of course she does.

  253. Vrbo!

  254. I left California a couple years ago.

  255. Elections have consequences. Some of those consequences really should influence elections, but that doesn't always happen.

  256. Most promising thing I've seen from the potential Biden administration.
    1
  257. I'll work with anyone to do right, and with no one to do wrong. That applies to Cenk as well as anyone else.
    1
  258. She should be allowed to plead insanity, though.
    1
  259. How well did outlawing drugs work?
    1
  260. I'll agree that Biden wasn't necessarily racist for this, though I do think the man is racist. Maybe the family just likes fried chicken. But Stephen Smith would be all over Trump if he did the same thing.
    1
  261. There is an unfortunate tendency among our species to treat "us" as individuals and "them" as pretty much all alike. The right has (mostly) gotten over that, but it seems to still be very frequent on the left and often embraced as a political position.
    1
  262. IMHO, we're going to see more Black women get called out and get tossed out. Not because being a Black woman is a problem, but because people have been put into positions they didn't earn. That's going to cause its own backlash and people objecting to this happening to a lot of Black women and they'll call for more people to be put into positions they haven't earned. And onward down the road to more polarization.

  263. "could blow up the world on day one." Trump was president and helped get several peace treaties done. Maher's full of stupid.

  264.  @vespasianflavius2766  They had stone buildings, cities, and empires before White people colonized it. Technology wasn't as high as in Europe or Asia, but it wasn't all mud huts.

  265. That hurt my brain more than a vodka IV.

  266. There is no end to her knowledge of science. But there's also no start.

  267. San Francisco is ridding itself of capitalism one taxpayer at a time.
    1
  268. So they can't claim fifth amendment protection in a federal court.
    1
  269. California is one of the most-taxed states in the country. Shouldn't their services be better than average?
    1
  270. Slight voting inconvenience vs. genocide. Yeah, tough comparison.
    1
  271. ESPN seems to be to sports what MTV is to music.
    1
  272. CNN had an "analysis" saying that if Biden had stayed in and lost, at least the burden would not have fallen on a Black woman. The author literally felt that, to protect Black women, they shouldn't be allowed to run for president. Too many on the left think highly of Black women the same way people think highly of their toy poodles.
    1
  273. Teachers like this shouldn't be teaching kids, IMHO.

  274. He's playing the game so hard he's forgotten the goals. Not unique among politicians. What is unique is that he looks like Rowan Atkinson.
    1
  275. I they think questioning Biden's hate is itself hate, no wonder they believe what they believe.
    1
  276. The funny thing is the Venezuelans are leaving a failed quasi-socialism only to end up in another one.
    1
  277. I'm fine with women secret service tests -- as long as they pass the same tests as men, and those tests aren't made easier. Quotas erode quality.
    1
  278. I think that federal- and state-level politicians should put their investments into a blind trust. I'm not an expert on the area and I might be wrong.
    1
  279. Cori Bush is one reason I didn't want to move to Missouri. Well, people who thought electing Cori Bush was a good idea.
    1
  280. He played a character in WWE, and, IMHO, he's playing one now.
    1
  281. Apparently Jim Jones has been drinking the Kool Ade
    1
  282. Johnson's take is always to blame people decades ago and to deny people responsibility for their actions today. He doesn't know it, but he treats Black people like children.
