The 1/6 committee was always a clown show; now it is definitely a fraudulent clown show.  Can you imagine referring a case to the justice department after you deliberately withheld exculpatory evidence.  These fraudsters should be indicted themselves. 

PS - the video of all the cops showing 'Q Shamon' around the Capitol is literally comical.  Musk had a hilarious take on it. 

whatd that tour cost him? Like 5 years in prison?

I'm guessing that now it's come out that this evidence was hidden from his defense team, he's probably going to get paid.  

Colin Kaepernick’s step parents gave him a loving home and set himself for success.  He proceeds to throw them under the bus to make a few extra bucks.

Great guy.

He’s experienced more privilege at his age than most experience in a lifetime.   

Full of bullshit.

PS If he were a decent QB, an NFL would have grabbed him up quickly.  They don’t care a thing about his “stance” if he could produce.

Hilarious how people defended that clown. He’s a grifter. Oh my foster parents are racist, let’s forget about my dad that abandoned me.

Btw, he called his parents racist for not liking corn rows. As if other parents haven’t liked their kids hair choices in history.

Talk about being a wimp.  When my dad called me a “fucking bum” for walking out of my room with torn up sweats, I guess he was not parenting me, but rather engaging in “problematic” class warfare.

Kapernick is a “look at me” narcissist who thinks he can play the race card on every problem he’s got.  

And next week when a bunch of backup QBs get signed for millions of dollars, the media will inevitably whine “X is making how much, but Kaepernick can’t get a shot???”

The NFL has no problem employing rapists and killers.  If one of the owners thought Kaepernick was good enough, he’d install a kneeler on the sideline for him to use before games.   The problem isn’t his wanting to be Malcolm X 2.0, the problem is that he’s just not that good enough.

It’s part of it though.

Tebow and Kaepernick are both good enough to be backup QBs in the NFL.

But both got ousted for the same reason, no coach wants a media distraction as their backup QB.

I disagree.  If even one owner thought also was good enough, he’d bring him in.  The NFL is one giant media distraction at this point.  Drama at QB exists on multiple teams.  Kaepernick isn’t playing because he’s not good enough.  

He’s held multiple workouts which plenty of teams either attended or had the chance to attend. 

I’d wonder if he’s had offers but turned it down while disagreeing with the money or role the team wanted.

That would be my guess. Probably either something non-guaranteed where he'd have to earn his back-up slot OR a situation where potentially interested teams were adamant that this would be all about football and leave the advocacy at the door because as a back-up, you aren't going to be getting all the attention and "being a distraction" and all that.

Where being a distraction can range from actually acting as a distraction to being the guy everyone wants to talk to regardless of actual on-field role or being the guy everyone auto-says should be the starter the instant the actual starter throws a bad pass.

He turned that last workout (the one the NFL was practically forced to hold, attended by multiple teams) into a complete shit show.  Almost like he had no real desire to play again, and used it to stage himself as some sort of victim.

Could you imagine what sort of demon spawn would result if Kaepernick got together with Greta Thunberg?!?

So much journalism. Mentally ill woman shoots 3 children and 3 adults at a Christian school, and the media is worried about getting her pronouns correct. Clowns. I’m sure the left will call out their own fringe for their violent rhetoric and over exaggeration of trans “genocide”. JK, most have made excuses for her and blamed it on guns and the right standing up against child mutilation / abuse.

There was confusion later on Monday about the gender identity of the assailant in the Nashville shooting. Officials had used “she” and “her” to refer to the suspect, who, according to a social media post and a LinkedIn profile, appeared to identify as a man in recent months.

Pronouns are was/were

Also, assume the MSM is about to call it a hate crime against Christians. 

America, where everyone has the right to prove their innocence at trial. Exactly as I learnt it.

The Grand Jury has acted upon the facts and the law.

No one is above the law, and everyone has the right to a trial to prove innocence.

Hopefully, the former President will peacefully respect the system, which grants him that right.

IDGAF about Trump, first of all. A misspelling with an extra "a" in it is whatever. I've used the wrong there/their/they're before.

Pelosi's Orwellian Doublespeak here is clearly worse.

i just thought it was funny. it wasnt anything towards you lol

ok, but you quoted my post so that kinda threw me.

They get pretty agitated when 'draining the swamp' is a campaign pledge and policy priority. 

Not sure we can go any lower.  Buckle up.

This DA must be the shadiest bastard - but that's NYC politics.  Who cares if Trump's paid off a string of porn stars.  I don't think anyone who loves him or hates him is surprised or cares.  This falls under the category of "Let it go".  I guess Mr. DA just wants to be in the national news.  I also see that MTG is coming to town to protest.  

This indictment will probably get Trump elected again.

I'm thinking the political calculus is that Trump is unelectable in a general, but this may help ensure his nomination.  The Dems do not want Desantis to get the nomination.

I also saw there are like 32 charges, so there might be a lot more to this [as originally speculated] than just Stormy Daniels.

Otherwise, from what I've read, if this is just about Stormy Daniels it's likely a loser, and could very well be thrown out.
