If I had any doubt that the FBI, at its higher echelons, is corrupt, the Roger Stone case has erased any question. It is blatant to anyone with one eye and half a brain that the deep state is real and abusing federal level agencies to persecute opponents of the deep state.

+1000! This is not the country I was taught it is.
Or Milo. ( such an abused kid, this is what you get )
The difference between Candace or Milo or.... And the mob/herd, is simple. They are individuals. They don't identify as anything, they stand up for themselves. Their experiences, their actual trials, shape their characters.
The mob identifies with the group. They are sheep, cows. Angry, vocal parrots. Constantly milling around to reduce exposure to predators, by instinct, while in denial that predators exist, while the Wolves, another Pack Animal, play shepherds leading them to slaughter.
It's all group identity & submission to the herd, led by the Pack. Have you noticed as the Hollywood stars burrow into the herd their individuality fades and they become more forgettable?
California has a larger fraud problem, because the Social Justice system refuses to remove illegals from the voting lists. This may be a ploy to eliminate the Electoral College, by making entire States ineligible to vote legally. How could such an obvious violation of rights be borne?
I support ending prohibition on libertarian grounds.
Even the Emperor of New York who wants the tax money has warned against taxing so much that the black market thrives and takes away his future stash of bribe money.
But he has the example of the million$ that flow over internal borders to buy tobacco.
That a State Will complain about losing taxes on drugs still illegal under federal law is mind boggling.
Based on the election of Sharia supporters, I suppose Michigan will be taxing sales of slaves soon. 13 year old girls alone will be estimated as multi billion tax income.
I agree. No deal is needed. We didn't negotiate a deal with England after the Declaration of Independence. We fought a War.
Great Britain should pack the E.U. Rep's bags & give them a Europass home. On the train.
There no reason to negotiate a leave deal with the tyranny you reject. Immediately stop all payments no more taxes to Brussels. Not one dime in reparations.
In politics, While it does help to know the technical words used to divide people, proletariat, Bolshevik, nomenklatura, etc. You just have to extract the truth from context.
Bourgeoisie, ( Bush wa see ) is Marxist for the evil capitalists that control the wealth and must be destroyed so the Proletariat can thrive.
Today that's the middle class in America. People who have 401k ownership of industry. Useful folk who make things and provide skilled services. Us.
Proletariat, aka Proles, are the workers who are the bottom of the income earners. The workers who contribute simple labor ( the kind we replace with robots ) Back in Marx's time, mine workers, ditch diggers. Today, a miner is skilled labor, so.... Fast food, bored convenience store clerks,mop pushers. The folk who provide muscle and make life a bit nicer when they clean our hotel rooms, and carry our drinks to us. ( Sandy ) But don't ( And under Marx will never be allowed to ) create new wealth or do anything creative.
Thus the bottom line of socialism, stripped of fancy words designed with malice to hide reality, is.....
The poorest are a weapon to be lied to repeatedly, so they are the mob to steal the wealth of the middle class. Both "groups" are hard working, and in reality it's the same humans.
I, like hundreds of millions in my country, started pushing a mop as a teen. Flipping burgers convinced me that getting at least a High school diploma was the minimum requirement to get a job not as greasy, boring, and back breaking. And like millions of Americans, I moved up the ladder to better pay, less dirt under my nails, and more paperwork. Not as fast as I might have liked, but that hasn't changed since a glass blower apprentice spent years in a hot shop in Venice before he moved to the window seats and created wonders for the customers. Faster, cleaner, & better than 16th century blacksmiths could hope for now, but "paying your dues" will always be a resented, but real, path to bettering yourself.
The point is rich, evil men ( And women, Sandy and Maxine ) tell the ignorant that those who are "above" them are keeping them down, so the rich, evil men can steal the wealth of those who work for a living.
And a century of corruption & destruction of the school system creates a vast number of ignorant tools to so exploit.
And since economics is no longer a classroom subject, but a cult of personality for the rich, the dividing lines evil men use to steal from us are now sexual preferences, skin color, clothing. Anything, really, to divide and conquer.
Is Bernie a sexist & racist? I assume he is racist, because his indoctrination is Soviet agitprop. Sexist? You tell me. I don't listen for nuance in communist lies like I don't look for chocolate in cheap vanilla ice cream.
I just assumed a Virginia Democrat who accused his enemies of racism was racist. Projection is the one consistent tactic the Dems use. If they accuse their enemies of X, then they are guilty of X. You could get rich betting on it, except Dems won't admit to gravity as they fall.
My first impulse was to reference the great movie Gattaca. If you haven't seen it, at least read the IMDB listing for it. No explosions, a bit "cerebral", and Uma Thurman.
But then I realized this is really the "one drop of Negro blood" racism that I expect from the Dems since before the Civil War.
Blazing Saddles was incredible. Huckleberry Finn is still the perfect American novel. Arguably The First American novel.
Those who ban Huckleberry Finn are evil. Such humorless drones are like the guards at Soviet death camps. Worse than their socialist Masters, they are sadists torturing children with sociopathic zeal.
The rich fleeing over taxation isn't a rumour or anecdotal. Local super rich guy, the classic American Dream, founded Paychex, has the children's wing at the Major local Hospital named after him, left, loudly announcing he was moving because of high taxes.
There is some minor local controversy that doesn't overshadow his reputation as a billionaire philanthropist. He was building a Beverly hills style super mansion in the Finger lakes, the best of the best of the best marble & plumbing. Quite the lovely house, I am told, and allegedly stiffed local contractors when he abandoned the State, and the project, in what seems to be a family tiff with spoiled brat children.
There are rumours of bitter "divorce like" pettiness with the kids that expected the mansion to be their play house, and daddy not approving the Ermine toilet seats.....
But that's tabloid trash except to the stiffed contractors and their families.
The important part is the rich are leaving for cheaper, better weather, and lower crime states. To the tune of Billions in lost revenue to the Emperor's slush fund to reward his bribers.

Gattaca... Great movie! Easy enough to be a borrowed ladder at this stage of the game if they start giving preference on DNA tests. Seems very odd to me though. If I get tested and find I'm 95% white, but 5% _____ (fill in a desired minority), isn't this pretty much nothing but "cultural appropriation" to call myself that minority?
I had a '64 VW Beetle way back when. I found that it shared a few parts with Porsche, and certainly shared a good portion of the engineering. You would be laughed at and scorned for trying to pass it off as a Porsche though. Especially if you are advertising it on Craigslist as a Porsche.
