Gas Bandit's Political Thread V: The Vampire Likes Bats

From what I understand AZ Republicans are pretty much all in on the MAGA train, so I would be a little surprised.
I don't tend to agree with people that do lynchings anyway.
So. The WV AG, who is the GOP nominee for Senate, goes after Manchin for his ties to Mylan?
Dude, you and your wife are in WAY too deep with Big Pharma to say a single syllable about Mylan. STFU.

Man, after that Arizona lynching comment, I keep seeing stuff like this about Arizona.
Can't help feeling that people wanting to lynch me in Arizona would be a compliment.
C'mon, that's just consistency, they've been trying to make them leave the land for hundreds of years.
I told myself I wasn't going to read this entire article, that it was too long and I had other things to do this morning, but in a way it was too awful to stop.

Too Oniony for my tastes. I think practically everyone in AZ knows that the northeast part of the state is Navajo. Hell, it's named Navajo County for a reason.Man, after that Arizona lynching comment, I keep seeing stuff like this about Arizona.

"We confirmed that one of the anti-immigration protesters did indeed ask an indigenous state representative whether or not he was “legal,” both through video footage of the incident and three corroborating interviews with Arizona state legislators who witnessed the scene "
With corroborating video.
The article notes these and other church scandals as part of what made unsealing church secrets and finding evidence possible.
The world is an Onion article now.

Holy shit, the irony of "We’re taking a look at whether Google searches should be regulated" coming from an administration that killed Net Neutrality.
FYI: agree with your statement Pez, not the actions being proposed in the link.

I didn't see that you posted this here before I posted it in the Trump thread. But it's so nuts it deserves to be in multiple threads.
Economic Anxiety?
"Be nice to have a businessman in office for a change".

NO COLLUSION!
Cheeto may have used that, but I don't recall any scoldings like that here.

Oh, I misunderstood what you were referencing.
In that case you'll be wanting: "This is actually a good thing. The government using heavy handed tactics is helping preserve freedom."
He's totally not racist though. Just because he called voting for his black opponent "monkeying it up," he didn't mean it racially, just that it would be stupid and bad for America. So, when does he start handing out white robes to his followers?

Both sides! (of the Atlantic, 80 years apart.)

Oh, thank goodness. Asstards and ignoramuses shouldn't be anywhere near children, much less for such a ridiculous reason as "the foster parents caring for them don't love their spouses the same way we do".
And I'm not commenting on Catholics in general - I'm talking about the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, and the Catholic Social Services organization for the area (which they operate).

I realize that it's likely the administration will foul up the details (and I don't believe the final details are available), but I'm not quite sure how arguing for due process for the accused is a bad thing.

It's a bad thing because it's falsely implying that the accused aren't getting due process.
If we're talking about Title IX proceedings, 'due process' is not what the accused get. The Dear Colleague letter made colleges scramble to create what, in cases, amounts to inquisitorial tribunals. There's been good mainstream writeups on these farces. Let's not pretend they're courts of law.
Edit: People not attending college (specially those economically/racially disadvantaged) are more likely to be rape/assault victims; the bipartisan and media focus on colleges, instead of poorer communities, smells.
