Did you catch Putin's remark about collusion while you were away:

‘It's very hard to find a black cat in a dark room especially if it is not there.'

Except unlike UBI, reparations in 2019 doesn't seem all that helpful overall...plus its a completely useless gesture to the vast majority of regular people. Your just gonna make poor white and Hispanic people angrier and black people won't feel like "this is enough to make up for slavery", so they'll just ask for more. You can't put a price tag on something like that.

So yeah, they have no real world applicability. Like, what are you going to do, give every white guy who is 1/4 African-American a fourth of what a regular black guy/girl would get under such a program?

I think we should just kill all white people though

Just another regular newsday in America:-

- President advances plans to remove healthcare from 21 million Americans
- cases of the once-eradicated measles continue to climb. New recommendations: don't go to the cinema, don't go on a cruise ship.
- Attorney General refuses to co-operate with Congress
- Attorney General lies under oath to Congress and also declares that the President has the right to stop an investigation into his conduct if he feels himself to be innocent.

A regular newsday although, without wishing to sound dramatic, that last development, if unchallenged, signals the day that the USA began the slide from democracy to dictatorship, following the models set by Turkey, Hungary, Venezuela. < Sorry, I should really fact-check those countries, but I have to rush off to work. 'byeee

How did Barr lie under oath when there was a documented 15 minute call the day after the Report was released where Mueller literally admits "nothing in the Attorney General's March 24th letter was inaccurate or misleading."?
