I'm not with any political party I'm a progressive. I would have been with the Republicans in the 19th century just like Dems now. Whoever puts forth policies that benefit the people of this country
I'm sure that after a few more investigations we'll finally find out what happened to that Benjamin Ghazi fellow the GOP seems so concerned about.
Yep, basically. It's why John Boehner stepped down as House Speaker. He absolutely could not deal with it anymore. And with Trump in office it looks like he picked a good time to chuck the deuces and get the fuck out of that shitshow.
smh at this budget proposal. https://www.washingtonpost.com/grap...-budget-2018-proposal/?utm_term=.909d6a0ec053
Speaking of news that conservative news media is covering while MSM liberal news outlets have a media blackout on, do y'all see this #RockvilleRape hashtag on twitter?: https://twitter.com/hashtag/RockvilleRape?src=hash https://twitter.com/foxandfriends/status/844490485964124161
And why do you think con-servative news outlets are heavily covering it? Is it because it fits their narrative or because rape by illegal immigrants are actually a problem? I'm thinking the other news outlets weren't covering it because the rapists were caught and in custody. Had they been still on the loose, they would have ran with it. Unfortunately, rape happens all too often. It's funny, I originally read about it on HuffPo when it first happened. I'd like to see some real stats on that to see if this incident justifies all the hype.
Plus the only time any news outlets really cover sexual assault is if the suspect is someone famous, like an actor or athlete. Rapes, like murders, robberies, and dozens of other kinds of crimes happen every day. Unless something about the crime is out of the ordinary it won't even get a mention. It's the same narrative you see on stories about police officers shooting black people; people point to stories about civilians killing police officers but leave out the fact that a lot of police officers get away with brutality while civilians don't.
It depends on how you define often. One in ten? One in thirty? One in a hundred? Media outlets only have so many resources. They can't cover every single crime that happens so they have to pick and choose what they want to focus on and nine times out of ten it's going to involve something out of the ordinary. Most crimes don't even make it past the local newspapers.
