15. Middle of next week? WTF?

Fri Jan 8, 2021, 10:34 AM

Jan 2021

So another week of trump crimes, abuses of power and immoral pardons, sponsored by US tax payers?

It's not just that the entire nation is in danger with this thug in office, it's the (racist?) double standard that pisses me off. Obama would have been arrested Wednesday night! Republicans would have already impeached, convicted, indicted, and would be well on their way to imprisoning a Democrat who did this.

So sick of this shit!

Get tough or get out! If you can't stand up for us... hell, if you can't even stand up for yourselves, then leave!
