Republicans: Gun deaths in Philly are because there aren't enough guns in Philly. We need more guns out there. That's R logic.
And SCOTUS has decided local areas cannot have strict gun control. 'Conservatives' are killing thousands of people by insisting on absurd, ridiculous logic.
PHILADELPHIA — The 300th killing of the year took the life of Lameer Boyd, an 18-year-old father-to-be who was gunned down one July night on a West Philadelphia sidewalk. Over the days that followed, a grandmother was shot in the neck in Mill Creek, a popular singer was killed in front of his house in South Philadelphia and a 26-year-old was shot during an argument outside a restaurant in East Tioga. On Aug. 2, a Tuesday night, a car pulled up at a front-porch cookout in Northeast Philadelphia. Someone in the car opened fire, killing a 29-year-old woman. With her death, the 322nd of the year, the number of homicides in Philadelphia was on track toward becoming the highest in police records, passing the bleak milestone set just last year. So far in 2022, more than 1,400 people in the city have been shot, hundreds of them fatally, a higher toll than in the much larger cities of New York or Los Angeles. Alarms have sounded about gun violence across the country over the past two years, but Philadelphia is one of the few major American cities where it truly is as bad as it has ever been.
What's this got to do with SCOTUS? Do you even read your own articles?
Democrats have trouble enforcing, or even choose not to enforce laws currently on the books against criminals possessing guns. That has nothing to do with SCOTUS or even "conservatives."
Cops in the major cities are retiring or quitting en masse is a huge problem too.
I'm very happy that the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago. It was a pathetic banana republic move and it's the very thing that has energized both the independent AND Republican voters to oust democrats nationwide.
Democrats are losing both houses of Congress and losing a few governor mansions such as AZ, PA, MI & possibly WI. There may be a couple more blue to red governor flip surprises but I'm confident with the ones named.
The red earthquake of 2022 will be massive. Impeachment hearings are coming in 2023 and Trump is going to back to the WH in Jan 2025.
I look forward to the liberal tears on election night 2022.
I think if Trump goes down, it’ll be the republicans that benefit. Therefore, the deep state republicans are trying to take down trump. This is the first draft of my conspiracy theory.
It's fascinating that this lifelong conservative can ask the question, "Who's the most reprehensible R Senator?" and not only have far too many who are neck-and-neck for the honor (Graham, Cruz, Rubio, Paul, Hawley, Cotton, Johnson, etc.), but McConnell, and guy who essentially stole a Supreme Court justice from a president/party, arguably isn't even a finalist!!
Boy, the R party of the Watergate era is apparently SO, SO far gone.....
How was the Supreme Court seat stolen. The process of appointing a judge was followed. Dems should have had the senate if they wanted to put a judge on the court
Yet more blatant dishonesty and inconsistency. You know it. McConnell in 2 situations:
Obama: Nearly a year is far too close to an election for a new justice.
Trump: Squeezing a justice in in the last 10 minutes of an administration is perfectly fine.
A country full of folks completely unwilling of being objective and consistent. You should all be ashamed.
Still not listening/reading, dems. See you in November. The debating is over. Although, if you ever want to learn what a tax rebate is, you and AOC can drop by.
You're incapable of debating. And despite your repeated claims....you're still here. Lastly, yeah, go on kidding yourself that only "dems" and "liberals" think that your tribe is a joke.

There it is, RIGHT on cue!! The most "banana republic" president we've ever had - by a LONG shot - uses the phrase in his typically perfectly hypocritical way, and......Gary is RIGHT there to immediately parrot it. You must be so proud.
When are you guys setting up a cute, utopian jungle village in South America?

You can be unhappy with something while still acknowledging it was within the rules/laws to do so.
McConnell didn’t steal anything. Do you know how the senate works? They approve justices. It was well within his purview to not put an Obama radical justice on the court. Nothing was stolen; he just outplayed your team.

Nah without trump the GOP is nothing. He is the party, the party is him. The party has taken the last six years pushing out of office anyone who doesn't give Trump a pass for felonies, sedition, insurrection, obstruction of justice, collaboration with Russia, etc.
When he is gone there is no more GOP. It will dissolve into a weird blood and soil regional party, mostly in the confederacy.

I know your brain simply can't handle this complexity, but it's not my team. I've spent my life preferring conservatives justices (and much more so before Trumpism). I wish Obama would have lost both his elections. But the people wanted him, and a big part of that is wanting his justices. So yeah, that justice selection WAS, for all intents and purposes, "stolen" from him and the voters. And the way McConnell then handled Trump's last minute nomination was one of the greatest shows of hypocrisy in my lifetime. You know this, but pretend that it's just about better game playing. And simply pasting on a massively subjective and self-serving "radical" to a nominee doesn't change any of this.
Let me guess, you're like the majority of Americans who sees their DB clearly interfere with a receiver and cheers the no-call. And the very next play watches an opposing DB do EXACTLY the same thing to your receiver and you want to murder the referee for the no-call.
I've watched that my whole life. Found it awfully disappointing. But hoped it mostly just applied to sports. Trumpism has shown me that I was very wrong.
Sooooo .... FBI Director Chris Wray is NOW concerned about threats made against him and other law enforcement officers due to the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago?!? Where was he/the FBI and Merrick Garland when numerous threats were being made against the Supreme Court justices after the Roe V. Wade judgement? They were not concerned at all about those threats.
Attorney General Merrick Garland said Wednesday that the Justice Department takes threats against Supreme Court justices "extraordinarily seriously" as he voiced support for a bill that extends security protections to justices' immediate family members. Garland reiterated that justices now receive "24-7 protection," including at their residences, and he said he's met with the Marshal of the Supreme Court, the FBI and others, "to be sure that we were assessing all possible threats and providing all resources available."

Wrong again. If people wanted Obama’s picks to be appointed, they would have voted in more democratic senators. Clearly the country was less enthusiastic about his picks than you think. In the same vein, the country gave trump a majority in the senate so he got to put his picks on. Not stolen, the word you want is “won”
and personally I look at those who use football analogies as brain dead because that’s what you have to be to watch the “sport”

So you'd be 100% fine if a D senate never let a R president put any judges on SCOTUS or the Federal Bench.
You'd in fact be fine if the Senate never let a president have a cabinet.
is that your view on this? You would nod sagely and say 'well we should have elected more R senators!'
