    Not sure? The quotes on Clinton are much less derogatory and they link more to the use of the plane but i agree being in the conversation at all is pretty dubious at best.

    MSNBC reminded viewers this morning that in 1992 then president George H W. Bush called Bill Clinton and Al Gore bozos. There was a big kerfuffle about how this was beneath dignity of president. Bush publicly apologized.

    How quaint.

    Clinton doesn't strike me as a violent rapist. I have no doubt that he pays for sex. I have no doubt that he uses his influence for sex.

    I wouldn't be surprised if he is a rapist in the sense that he has sex with some underage girls. But I would be surprised to find that he has much of a history of physically forcing himself on women and girls. He seems more like a manipulator.

    I believe there were multiple women (in Arkansas) who allege Clinton forcing himself on them.

    Yeah, I don't remember the details. I just don't remember as much "mean" type reports about Clinton as we've heard about Trump.

    I'm not sure how that matters, or if it even does. I wouldn't vote for either, and I think both should probably be in jail.

    Supreme court rules that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has to stay on the ballot in Michigan and Wisconsin, since, you know, voting is already underway. Could cut into Trump's support a little.

    This is fake, right? Lol. We are not fucking idiots we know everything in Trump world goes through him.

    I'm so glad I'm smart and actually care about people. Two great qualities I have that anyone who supports Trump doesn't have.

    Harris did an event tonight at the same site as Trump did his event on Jan 6th.

    Watch until the end, the crowd size is YUGE!

    Devices With ‘Free Gaza’ Messages Found at Ballot Box Fires

    Investigators responding to arson fires at two ballot boxes in the Pacific Northwest this week found devices at both scenes marked with the words “Free Gaza,” according to two law enforcement officials.

    Investigators are trying to determine if the perpetrator was actually a pro-Palestinian activist or someone using that prominent cause to sow discord, one of the officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the investigation was ongoing. But the message has added a heightened layer of political sensitivity to a closely watched investigation in the final days of a tense presidential election.

    The fires both occurred early Monday within a short time of each other in Portland, Ore., and just across the state line in Vancouver, Wash.

    The “Free Gaza” message appeared not only on the two devices, which were discovered on Monday, but also on a device found at a third ballot box this month in Vancouver, according to the law enforcement officials. That device also had the words “Free Palestine” on it.

    Officials said at a news conference that they believed all three events were linked. They later released surveillance images of a suspect vehicle, asking for the public’s help in identifying the person driving a dark, early 2000s Volvo.

    “There was enough evidence collected at all three scenes that lead us to believe that all three incidents are connected, and we cannot get into more detail,” Mike Benner, a spokesman for the Portland Police Bureau, said on Monday.

    On Tuesday, Mr. Benner said he did not know details of any markings but said that the device found attached to the ballot box in Portland has been sent for forensic analysis. “As part of that analysis, the device will be examined for unique writings and markings,” he said. A motive has not been determined, he added.

    One of the law enforcement officials with knowledge of the markings said that all three devices were sent to the terrorist explosive device analytical center in Huntsville, Ala.

    In Portland, election officials said, the ballot box’s automatic fire suppressant system protected almost all the ballots. Election officials were reaching out to three voters whose ballots were damaged.

    Soon after, a fire erupted at a ballot box in Vancouver. The fire suppressant system there did not contain the blaze, and hundreds of ballots were destroyed, officials said. They are asking anyone who dropped a ballot there after late Saturday morning, when the box was last emptied, to request a replacement ballot.

    Washington and Oregon are not considered to be swing states in this election, although there are several closely watched races there, including a congressional race in southwest Washington that is considered one of the nation’s most competitive. Portland is electing a new mayor.

    Both states depend on mail-voting systems, in which voters receive ballots in the mail that can be sent back via mail or dropped off at a ballot box. A few months ago, the Homeland Security Department warned in an intelligence report about the threat of “incendiary and explosive materials” being dropped into ballot boxes.

    To further protect their ballot boxes, officials in Clark County, which includes Vancouver, said on Monday that the 22 drop boxes in the area would have observers watching them 24 hours a day. Law enforcement agencies also vowed to increase patrols around the drop boxes.

    While I am running a campaign of positive solutions to save America, Kamala Harris is running a campaign of hate. She has spent all week comparing her political opponents to the most evil mass murderers in history. Now, on top of everything, Joe Biden calls our supporters “garbage.” You can’t lead America if you don’t love the American People. Kamala Harris and Joe Biden have shown they are both unfit to be President of the United States.

    I am proud to lead the biggest, broadest, and most important political coalition in American history. We are welcoming historic numbers of Latinos, African Americans, Asian Americans, and citizens of every race, religion, color, and creed. It is my desire to be the President of all the people.

    I would love for you to break this post down for me. You believe WHO is” deflecting from being called a racist themselves”? Son, there are about 5 on here who over the years spent COUNTLESS posts claiming they WEREN’T racist after posting RACIST comments. You can‘t argue that. Thats the interesting thing about your post…..nobody here has ever been accused of BEING racist, simply because we don’t post RACIST comments. Damn bro, you twist shit up with the best of them. Claiming to be the expert on racial harmony living where you live is hilarious. Keep grinding.
