    And, what, Bill donated some more used underwear? You are probably unaware that lawyers and accountants can do all kinds of fun things with tax returns.

    Presumably Mueller has access to that which was denied the people, i.e. Trump's tax returns. As you note re Al Capone, it was unpaid tax that got him in the end.
    Nobody is going after Hillary to anywhere NEAR the same extent they are pursuing Trump. Your goofus statement that "she was never indicted or charged with any wrongdoings" is still no proof whatsoever that she's not a crook. She's just better at it.
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        Charming! Has Donald "donated some more used underwear", or did he just give it all to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal?

        There is no good evidence that Hillary is a crook despite the best efforts of some, just paranoid conspiracy theories from the right.

            • I had posted that, then deleted it pending discussion with mods --- it has a lot of profanity in it from those wonderful African-American "Hebrew Israelites", along with some video of "the B bomb" signs - and I see you include such a warning.

              Note that this includes actual video, and more of it than we've seen before, that does a better job of showing context.

                  I never watch "The View", but saw a clip where they were discussing this very thing, and dingbat Joy Behar said....

                  WHOOPI GOLDBERG, HOST: Many people admitted they made snap judgments before these other facts came in. But is it that we just instantly say that's what it is based on what we see in that moment and then have to walk stuff back when it turns out we're wrong? Why is that? Why do we keep making the same mistake?

                  JOY BEHAR: Because we're desperate to get Trump out of office. That's why.


                  There ya have it!

                    I try to avoid it but its on in the lunch room where I work so I actually saw that episode. Even Whoppi looked had a shocked, what-is-wrong-with-you-look on her face after Joyless admitted it.

                      According to some friends who watch it, it's one of the RARE times that Whoppi [sic] actually looked like the adult in the room.

                            On the contrary, it should never be possible to use the tax code as a way to undermine First Amendment guarantees. While distasteful, it should be perfectly permissible for preachers to directly advocate for specific candidates from the pulpit.

                            Specific to the case at hand, only some of the kids were wearing MAGA hats, and unless the school had a standing policy of only wearing "school uniforms," they properly did not infringe on students' rights to self-expression.

                            Further, they did not "get themselves involved in" anything. The "political upheaval" by the various raving anti-white nutcases sought them out.

                            Finally, I'm not sure what kind of "intervention" the chaperones should have performed. I'm sure they had no expectation of being verbally assaulted by lunatics, and were not sure how best to respond.

                              I'm not sure it's possible to cram any more ignorance into such a short paragraph.

                                they were not there for the political rally and the school had nothing to do with the hats. Students can buy what they want and be as political as they want. They were just waiting for their bus at the same location as the protest.

                                You have no idea what you are talking about.
