    Every time I wonder where Obama thought he could get away with his spying on the Trump campaign for Hillary's benefit, I am reminded that he did put his solicitor general on the court. MS Kagan seems to have been a necessary insurance policy for his later dirty work. And how's that worked out??

    Every time I see liberals wax poetic about how dangerous a new GOP pic will be we must always view it through the lens that they themselves install justifies for, and their fear becomes more understandable....

    As if there was a chance she wouldn't be confirmed. This is a republican wet dream.

    The last time Trump won. We were assured that the dictatorship was imminent back then too.

    We've been on the cusp of the imminent Trump dictatorship for four years now, and here we go again, but for really, really, really, real this time, right?

    I did answer - and one needs not know anything about the candidate to know they are "Establishment Wonk"

    What part of that explanation was not satisfactory ? If the panel selecting the candidates is full of establishment wonks - what do you figure the odds of a non establishment wonk making through the process are ?

    I don't need to anything about the personal principles of these candidates is - other than in order to be one of those selected - you have to already have sold your soul to Rock and Roll.

    Clear as muddy water now ? or did I need to repeat the part about the GOP hating the founding principles and principles of Republicanism.

    Traitor's in our midst lad .. do you not see them ? or has your vision become clouded by the red koolaid ?

    Yup. That's how partisans do it. I can't imagine why the republicans fear Biden taking the guns. They cried for eight solid years that Obama would take them. I assume that's done, so what guns are there to take? ;)

    LOL. I just have to laugh at your willingness to or insistence of not viewing facts, or having situational awareness. Plain talk from now on. Barry said, "spy on him" it was in the notes. Comey got Strzok to initiate the FISA, and poof, Trump was spied on. Now, run along and figure out the physics behind this....

    If you don't vote, don't complain. Unless you're a Democrat and can't control the vote to your pleasing. Then go ahead. Complaints are all you have. If you do vote and it does not go your way, at least you had your say. It's all any of us have given the low quality of elected representation we get from the Swamp.

    But when the stars align and the potions all work....

    See you at the Trump reelection party. For the occasion, they're renaming Trump Tower as Biden State Prison.

    In a huge blow to Trump, the DOJ watchdog found no evidence to support the claim that the FBI spied on his 2016 campaign

    https://www.businessinsider.com/justice-department-finds-fbi-didnt-spy-on-trump-2016-2019-11

    "The Justice Department's inspector general found no evidence to support President Donald Trump's claim that the FBI spied on his 2016 presidential campaign while investigating whether the campaign was conspiring with the Russian government to interfere in the election, The New York Times reported on Wednesday, citing people familiar with a draft of the report.

    The Times article builds on reporting from The Washington Post, which broke the story last week."

    I'd give you another swing but you've already struck out a few dozen times.

    Biden won't take any guns away, because the leftist riot rats so terrify the former leftist gun grabbers, they went out and grabbed guns for themselves.

    Gun control is a dead issue now that millions of leftists feel like they need to protect themselves against the Frankenstein's monster of their own making.

    Agreed. The nice thing about the upcoming second Trump term is that he will have further chances to reshape the 9th Circus out in Callyforny-ay. A couple more hard core conservatives in both the 1st and 2nd as well wouldn't go amiss.

    You need to call Billy the Bagman right away and give him all the evidence you've been able to obtain that escaped the notice of the IG.

    They'd have to be victimized themselves for it to stick. But yeah, even leftist women are now taking gun courses. As emotional as some of them are this could be interesting. Batgirl Meets Westworld or somethin'....

    Nope. Bork's confirmation was voted on. McConnell didn't want to make Repubs who praised Garland be exposed for hypocrites by voting against him after praising his moderation so he refused to take up the nomination.

    Leftists ALWAYS say that a Republican president will lead to dictatorships. Anyone with an IQ higher than applesauce might find it really challenging to name even one such case thus far in the history of that party, even in wartime against ourselves or before that the Brits, French and Spaniards.

    Leftists are never able to prove their case, and it never comes true, and they stupidly, insanely try claiming it in every election. Yessir! Vote GOP and by pure magic that 30-pound iron ball and chain and ankle bracelet will all be yours! Welts an inch high will spring up on your back from all those whippings you endured in the 25 seconds after he gets sworn in.

    Yeah. He. Sorry about that, Harris. For it to be true this time, Kamalalalalala has got to lose.

    It's all an empty position has. Repetition. As FDR himself said (10/26/1939 radio address) --- "Repetition does not transform a lie into a truth."
