Dear @markrobinsonNC: Why are you advocating violence? Also, Jesus Christ would support universal health care. Oh, and Jesus said this: “It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.” Matthew 19:24. QT @TheTNHoller: YIKES— NC LT.

Jesus answered, “The Scriptures also say, ‘Don't try to test the Lord your God!’” Matthew 4:7. God created the laws of chemistry and biology.

Please do not take livestock ivermectin for COVID. Talk to your doctor. If you don’t have a doctor, read what doctors’ groups or @US_FDA have said.

This is the kind of smart,insightful observations coming from Republicans. QT @JoshMandelOhio: The last letters in Democrat: RAT The last letters in Republican: I CAN That should tell you everything you need to know.)
18 USC § 595 makes it a crime for a person employed by a US Dept or agency from using “official authority for the purpose of interfering with, or affecting…the election of any candidate for the office of President”.

As a former prosecutor, I disagree with Bruce Castor’s promise not to prosecute Bill Cosby in exchange for Cosby to testify. But once that agreement was made, it was wrong for prosecutors to then prosecute Cosby. The government should not violate 5th Amendment rights, period.

It’s a welcome first step that AG Garland referred the Trump DOJ subpoena scandal to the Inspector Generals.
