Well if I’m a criminal, might as well commit some actual crimes.
Give the racist asshats an inch and they will take a mile.
For the racists, calling them racist is the real crime. If you want to see right wing dumbasses turn into total snowflakes, see how they behave when confronted on their racism…
“Bondi is also making a push to deemphasize prosecutions of white-collar crimes, purge diversity programs within the DOJ, reintroduce the federal death penalty, and to root out lawyers who aren’t willing to march in lockstep with Trump ideologically.”
Shitting biscuits.
“Deemphasize prosecution of white-collar crimes”.
Alright so basically 2008 was a practice round and now we are really planning to make the worlds banks collapse in on their collective greed. Cool.
I know who we’re eating first.
She can try, but the Supreme Court gutted agencies’ ability to interpret law.
That won’t stop them from bringing lawsuits. That’s where the real damage will be done. Companies will fear being sued so much that they will preemptively drop their DEI programs. This is all about creating a chilling effect through threats.
It just keeps getting more and more absurd.
I wonder how much further it can go before we get sucked into a black hole.
The Racist South playing the long game
Years ago, there was a big write-up (cannot find it any more) on the idea of Northern Liberty vs. Southern Liberty, and it was totally spot-on.
Every American should read it because it really laid out the difference between the way cons with the Southern mindset spoke about “liberty” - in their use of this, liberty meant the right to RULE OVER OTHERS. Which is completely at odds with the normal/Northern interpretation.
When I used to link to this article and mention it on various forums, including DP’s I’d get butthurt cons saying how unfair that characterization is/was. LOL.
Spoiler alert, the north was full of bigots too, they just didn’t need slaves as much
How is that a spoiler? It was over 150 years ago.
Also I’m not sure what you think people are supposed to take from that.
BoTh SiDeS!!!
BotH sIdEs
It’s wild to see someone say that for the US Cival War of all things.
We can’t acknowledge the whole country was racist in in the 1800s? the country kept black people as slaves. All kinds of industry in the north benefited from the materials produced by slavery even though they didn’t personally own the slaves
Oh yea, the 1800’s. Do you know what the civil war was?
Lincoln himself said if allowing slavery would preserve the union, he would do it.
The thing about the north that I’ve learned that surprised me is how many abolitionists held that belief because they didn’t want black and white people living together. They wanted an ethnostate.
Yeah, there was a whole movement to get them to move to what is now Liberia (or Haiti, or Panama). Even Lincoln supported the idea. Although, he did eventually abandon the idea due to, among other complications, his refusal to implement any plan that made it compulsory, so… at least there’s that?
He also wanted them to move to the Moon. Right?
Interesting, Thank you
The attorney general is congress now? Wait, let me laugh even harder.
