Progressives (of which I am one) may not trust the CIA all the time, but does that mean that career civil servants are lying to the President about Russian interference with our elections and our government?
Career civil servants in Langley have caused immense harm to countries worldwide and indeed to the US, they are not to be trusted and often have their own agendas. Project Mockingbird comes to mind here.
Our FBI recently stopped a plot to kidnap the Governor of Michigan. Should she, a leftist, said, "nah, I don't believe you?"
She is probably aware that this plot was driven by the FBI as they did with Muslims after 9/11: www.cair.com/blog/fbi-entrapment-harms-vulnerable-muslims/
Hilary Clinton said the "basket of deplorables" in reference to the type of white supremacists who support Trump. Like Clinton, I find those people deplorable. They are the same type that plotted to kidnap a female governor this month. Sounds like Hilary was right
Whitmer plotters weren’t even Trump supporters. Try again.
The left has an issue with cancel culture, but we still have freedom of the press in the US and there is no liberal, progressive or moderate who thinks we should abolish our First Amendment Rights
You should read Emily Bazelon’s recent essay advocating to move to a more nuanced and ‘European’ understanding of the FA. Believe it was published in the NYT magazine. Frankly scared me.
There are 21 states in the US where a doctor may go to jail for performing abortions. 16 states if abortion is past the 20-22 week mark, 5 states if abortion is past the 24 week mark. Alabama is when the heartbeat is detected
Well, you generally cannot get an abortion in these states past ‘viability’ unless there is a fetal abnormality and this was the whole point of Roe v Wade. At the very least you’d lose your license to practice as these are illegal! Also, WaPo is paywalled but Alabama cannot have a heartbeat bill, it would (and has been) struck down by the Supreme Court.
