Trick Question!

I kid, I kid.

What’s going to be infuriating is when they subpoena the Trump Family, they all say fuck off and the Democrats throw their hands in the air and say “we tried.”

But think of the shame the Trumps will live with for the rest of their lives!

The whole reason they supposedly couldn’t subpoena them before was that he was still president. Now there is no excuse other than some BS executive privilege claim and they still won’t do shit.

You can support the socialist agenda and still recognize who ended up as president wouldn’t have changed much.

Don’t really care about the vice principles. Trolly’s statement sounded like vice principle thinking, hence my quip.

Sure

Overall, yes, but it’s also got most of the more progressive dems in the state. For example, this guy is amazing:

As soon as Casie Tomlin found the FedEx envelope in her mailbox, she knew something looked fishy. Inside, a flyer from a group called Dallas Justice Now urged parents in Dallas’ wealthy — and largely white — Highland Park and University Park suburbs to not send their kids to Ivy League schools.

The parents needed to make space for students of color, the statement said. If they didn’t sign the pledge, Dallas Justice Now would publish their names online. The statement also appeared on PR Newswire, a pay-for-play press release service.

Then, she typed a few questions on Dallas Justice Now’s Facebook page. She donated money to the group to see if she could get more information. She tried to contact the people behind it.

Before she knew it, Tomlin had been doxxed. Dallas Justice Now published a follow-up press release, accusing her of being a white supremacist. The group then wrote several posts about Tomlin on its Facebook page.

Later, Tomlin took to Twitter and wrote, “I knew it was fake and designed to draw a rise the first time I saw this nonsense.”

Meanwhile, Dallas Justice Now blew up in right-wing media. The story appeared at the Post Millennial, a far-right website based in Canada. The British Daily Mail tabloid ran a story about the saga. Conservative media figures had a field day. “Yes, this is real,” wrote Matt Walsh, an ultra-conservative Twitter personality and columnist for the Daily Wire .

The ultra-conservative PJ Media warned that the “local Black Lives Matter group Dallas Justice Now launched a new campaign, urging white parents in wealthy Highland Park to sign a pledge to keep their children from applying to America’s top colleges — in the name of ‘equity.’”

On Tuesday night, the scandal even found its way to Tucker Carlson Tonight , the Fox News showed headed by its eponymous far-right host. Host Mark Stein, who was filling in for Carlson, described the Dallas Justice Now debacle as “one of those stories that would have been a rather dull satire a decade ago, but these days, it is just standard operating procedure.” (To be fair, no one said Tucker’s team included crack fact-checkers.)

How the hell do you combat this shit?
