You don't even think of or read your copy and paste. You just post whatever suits your bias.

You are quoting an article from 1958. 10 years before blacks got civil rights.

You are quoting an article written during a racist period to criticise black people on crime. Are you well?

Only people who don’t know this guy can waste their time debating this individual. He is clearly not well at all.

A reporter was about to cover Swalwell allegations back in 2019.When swalwell dropped out of the race ,the story was shelved

One note on the Swalwell stuff – (this isn’t confirmed) but a reporter with Politico was working on verifying the rumors on Swalwell when he was running for President. (he’s no longer with the publication) Two days before he was scheduled to sit down with this reporter Swalwell dropped out of the race. The energy disappeared to potentially take him out, the victims if they were even willing to go on the record never did. He slithered back to his safe house seat. December 2025 was too early to take down Swalwell we had to wait til his paperwork was ALL IN running for governor March 2026, so the head of the snake could be chopped off and he had no safe house seat to slither back to this time. Hate the strategy fine, but for folks unsure if this would work, we had to make sure he couldn’t get away like he did in 2020

They knew he was a shady character. What they did with that information should be investigated.
Swalwell was a member of the House Intelligence committee from 2015 - 2023. He was appraised of all Top secret matters of the US govt .
He had already been intimate with a Chinese spy Fang Fang from 2011-2015.

basilico:
I get sick reading your drivel, spare me by doing the necessary.

They all knew he was abusing women.
Swalwell video in a hotel room. Apparently the one filming was an underage, the other bearded man looks exactly like Democrat Arizona senator who is his best friend.

If Swalwel was a republican you'd be calling for his execution. Obrigardo what do you think about this swalwell rapist?
Katie Porter is now the frontrunner for California governor. She is a certified violent person.

Charlie Kirk stated that he would question a black pilot's qualification if he sees one. Please, is there anything like an unqualified pilot?

Charlie Kirk himself didnt finish school. What qualifies him to be interviewing people? Which media qualification does he have?

Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico: 10:20am On Apr 17

Can't get the post ,around April 1 or a few days before I posted a video of Kirk answering what he meant by black pilots. Discussion spanned a few days.
The full context of his questioning black pilots qualifications was based on an airline saying they want more women and people of colour.Trust you me ,if I knew an airline looks at hiring pilots from that "oppressed class" ,I would never get into their plane.
A pilot is not allowed to make a single mistake ,a plane is not a car that you park by the roadside to check why it's overheated

As for finishing school people like Bill Gates , Mark Zuckerbucks didn't finish college.
The only thing you need to know about Charlie Kirk was that he answered every question put to him and his videos are all over YouTube.

KOLVET: We've all been in the back of a plane when the turbulence hits or when you're flying through a storm and you're like, "I'm so glad I saw the guy with the right stuff and the square jaw get into the cockpit before we took off. And I feel better now, thinking about that."

KIRK: You wanna go thought crime? I'm sorry. If I see a Black pilot, I'm gonna be like, "Boy, I hope he's qualified."

KOLVET: But you wouldn't have done that before!

KIRK: That's not an immediate … that's not who I am. That's not what I believe.

NEFF: It is the reality the left has created.

KIRK: I want to be as blunt as possible because now I'm connecting two dots. Wait a second, this CEO just said that he's forcing that a white qualified guy is not gonna get the job. So I see this guy, he might be a nice person and I say, "Boy, I hope he's not a Harvard-style affirmative-action student that … landed half of his flight-simulator trials."

KOLVET: Such a good point. That's so fair.

KIRK: It also … creates unhealthy thinking patterns. I don't wanna think that way. And no one should, right? … And by the way, then you couple it with the FAA, air-traffic control, they got a bunch of morons and affirmative-action people

SCOTUS to rule on gerrymandering,creating congressional district seats resembling salamanders.

Supreme Court Set to Crush Racist Voting Rights Act Quota System – Republicans Poised to Gain Dozen Southern House Seats

Sean Spicer dropped a bombshell: reliable sources tell him the Supreme Court has already decided to gut Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. That provision has been weaponized for decades to force states into drawing bizarre, race-obsessed congressional maps packed with majority-minority districts.

The New York Times itself ran the numbers on Southern states. Under the current rigged setup, Republicans hold 65 seats to Democrats' 24. If the Court finally ends this unconstitutional racial gerrymandering, the map flips hard: Republicans surge to 77 seats while Democrats crater to just 12. That's a clean 12-seat swing straight to the GOP before the 2026 midterms.

This isn't about suppressing votes. It's about ending the federal mandate that treats voters like racial chess pieces and demands districts be carved up by skin color instead of communities, geography, or actual interests. The Constitution demands color-blind equal protection, not permanent racial set-asides that dilute one group's voice to boost another's.

Left-wing activists are panicked because these artificial "majority-minority" districts have been their insurance policy for safe Democratic seats in the South. Without the VRA's race-based mandates, states can finally draw fair maps that reflect how people actually live and vote.

The Supreme Court has already signaled deep skepticism toward endless racial engineering in redistricting. In Louisiana v. Callais and related fights, the conservative majority looks ready to declare that complying with Section 2 by intentionally creating race-dominated districts often violates the 14th and 15th Amendments.

Spicer's report lines up with the betting markets and oral argument vibes: the days of forcing states to play racial bean-counting games are numbered. Southern legislatures are already positioning to redraw lines fast if the ruling drops in time.

This is a long-overdue correction. No more treating the Constitution as a suggestion when it comes to race. Equal protection means equal protection for every American, period. If the Court follows through, expect a stronger Republican House and a blow against the identity politics machine that has distorted elections for far too long.

After 2030 census democrats states are likely to lose 7-8 seats as their overtaxed subjects flee to blue states

The racist and misogynist has appointed a new CDC director, black woman. Plus two other women to high ranking positions
He hates women that much.

From President Trump: I am pleased to announce the new leadership of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It is my Honor to nominate the incredibly talented Dr. Erica Schwartz, MD, JD, MPH, as my Director of the CDC. Erica graduated from Brown University for College and Medical School, and served a distinguished career as a Doctor of Medicine in the United States Military, the Greatest and Most Powerful Force in the World, and then served as my Deputy Surgeon General during my First Term. She is a STAR! I am also pleased to announce the appointment of Sean Slovenski as the CDC Deputy Director and Chief Operating Officer, Dr. Jennifer Shuford, MD, MPH, as the CDC Deputy Director and Chief Medical Officer, and Dr. Sara Brenner, MD, MPH, as Senior Counselor for Public Health to Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

These Highly Respected Doctors of Medicine have the knowledge, experience, and TOP degrees to restore the GOLD STANDARD OF SCIENCE at the CDC, which was an absolute disaster focused on “mandates” under Sleepy Joe. Together, they will do a TREMENDOUS job leading the CDC as we continue to MAKE AMERICA HEALTHY AND GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP

The first verse Surah Al Fatiha is recited during every prayer ,5 times a day.

Guide us to the straight path—the path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray".

Those who have had the favour bestowed are the Muslims , the rest who annoy Allah are non Muslims.
Pope shouldn't allow those prayers at the Vatican.. It's actually a curse but they deny it vehemently.

Before Budaatum posts nonsense I'll add

At-Tirmidhi reports from Adi ibn Hatim who said:

"I asked the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam) about Allah's saying about, 'Those who have earned [Your] Anger', and he said, 'It refers to the Jews.' I then asked about, 'Those who have gone astray' and he said, 'The Christians are those who have gone astray.' "70

The Christians were ignorant, not knowing the truth,

The Qur’an chastises Christians and Jews for not following the true straight path; Islam

"And do not follow the vain desires of people (i.e. the Christians) who went astray in times gone by, and misled many, and have themselves strayed from the Straight Path." [Al-Qur'an 5:77]
