Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I don't care if they are Republican or Democrat. If they are criminals, they should go to jail. Release the Epstein files and send Bill and Trump to jail.

Thats the thing I don't think they get.

"Ok, well our guy will go to jail, but so will yours!!!"

"That's fine."

"But then we BOTH lose!"

"This isn't a MAD doctrine situation. This is supposed to be more like a scorched earth situation. No corruption left behind."

And I don't think they grasp that.

She is only saying it because she is positive the files will never get released.

What they don't grasp is that we'd send our guy to jail: because they won't.

That's the difference.

When a corrupt democrat is exposed they're expelled (bye bye Cuomo)

When a corrupt republican is exposed they're re-elected.

Even if it’s egregiously overstated (Al Franken).

Tbf though you cant become republican if you havent exposed yourself a couple times

[–] 5oap10116@lemmy.world 22 points 9 hours ago

Thus is the difference between MAGA/republicans and everyone else

Bill was lended Epstein's plane one time to a regular AIDs relief tour in Africa.

Trump has been on his plane many times, but more importantly called him a friend and went to his island. Many times.

You sound as crazy as the people calling Stephen Hawking a kid diddler when you say stuff like that. You, like the majority of Americans, seem to have no fucking clue what actually happens around them.

But yes, I agree, release the reports and send people who broke the law to prison.
