  • I’m not assuming that all the prosecutors are nonpartisan, but I am assuming that many people would have interacted with this evidence and either tricking all those people or keeping them quiet would be difficult. This is an instance where Occam’s Razor holds true and there most likely isn’t some insidious plot to release altered texts to push an agenda.

    I’m not an expert on US law either, but my intuition is that knowledge of these texts wouldn’t exclude anyone from Jury selection unless this evidence ended up not being usable in court?


  • This is conspiracy thinking.

    The Utah county prosecutors office released those texts, not the Trump administration. You’re suggesting that the president and his goons have infiltrated the local prosecutor to plant fake evidence where the shooter obliquely indicates he’s left leaning when the fuckwits can’t even keep reporters out of their signal chats?

    Releasing non-confidential information to the public is common in high visibility cases like this at this point in the investigation. They haven’t released anything that would compromise witnesses etc. which is what should be kept under seal.
















  • Why did you bother mentioning the 19.2% inflation statistic if we’re talking about real wages?

    Your point is taken that Biden is not primarily responsible for the wage increases during his time in office, but he doesn’t have the power as president to unilaterally increase the federal minimum wage. He did sign an executive order increasing the minimum wage for federal employees and contractors which, while not having a significant impact on the wage growth nationally, is a step in the right direction.

    I realize your point is more that the author of this piece is a prick and he didn’t spend enough time trying to understand the bad economic vibes coming from the working class, but it seems like the Biden administration did a relatively good job guiding the economy through post COVID turmoil, which he (… And Harris by proxy) did not get any credit for. Would you agree with that?

    I’m a huge fan of “sneering chud” by the way. Will be forcing that into a conversation soon.
