    If the report was exonerating, they’d release. Therefore, drawing the adverse inference: holy shit, trump nominated a child rapist to the justice department.

    They wouldn’t show restraint for a Democrat. These are empty words

    They literally showed pictures of hunter bidens Wang on Cspan and he was a private citizen. So spare me the theater.

    It’s funny and a bit ironic how far Mr. Jesus (Johnson) has fallen since he took office. Going out of his way to protect pedophiles and rapists like Gaetz and Trump and doing nothing but looking after the interests of how much money his boss is going to be making.

    _Matthew 6:24

    No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money._

    Never believe that [fascists] are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The [fascists] have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

    This definition of private citizen seems to extend to all human beings… so why do we even do ethics reports.
