Because they don't want America flooded with illegals. A position you don't have to be a white supremacist to agree with.


Is it white supremacy to suggest that illegal immigrants “are poisoning the blood of our country”?

It's certainly provocative language that I wouldn't use. I'd just rather enforce the laws and keep them out. I don't know what's white supremacy about that. A standard every other nation on Earth has, can't possibly be white supremacy. Can it?

We've been down this road with cakes and such, and the atheists were up in arms. Again, America was founded by Christians, for Christians. As people disobey God, the founders gave us enough rope to hang ourselves. We are free to change America into something totally different.

Let's just acknowledge that is what we would be doing. When someone like Ibram Kendi says that we should have a race ayatollah stand above the constitution to change any law that he deems won't create racial equity, let's just acknowledge that this is something new, something atheist in nature, and antithetical to what America is.

I mean the double talk is strange. On the one hand, America was founded in abhorrent Christian values like racism and slavery, but depending on the mood of the leftist, America becomes a clearly secular nation founded with these wonderful secular/atheist values. Surely we wouldn't have all this work to do to create 'equity' if America was founded on the leftist's conception of equity.


America was founded by war criminals and slave traders. They committed genocide in the name of Christianity FFS! CONVERT THE SAVAGES OR KILL THEM!! You really are doing worse in your argument with every post. :lol: Was it Christian morality that came up with the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882? :lol: How about Jim Crow laws? You want hose too? :rofl: take your Christian morality to church with you on Sunday and leave everyone else alone. Try that for a change.

America was founded by good Christian people who, no different from today, were bound by the circumstances they found themselves in. Slavery was a worldwide practice that was ENDED by the British. The British who founded America fought a war to free people who were distinctly different from them. Who does that? Why? You really think today's race hustlers would fight a war to save even 'their own people', let alone 'the enemy'?

This is special behavior. America is a special nation. And still is. We know this because millions flee from their own countries and risk their lives, just to be a part of the greatest nation ever created. Those are the facts. And I can assure you that NO ONE who speaks negatively about America will ever leave. They'll be right here enjoying everything the founders and those that came before created. Ungrateful, but they'll keep eating. I promise you that.


:lol: Oh you want it both ways. Then you go all patriotic to deflect. I agree. It is a great nation. With a great many flaws. Nothing to do with the discussion but, I'm fine with moving on since you are talking in circles anyway instead of facing the truth in the OP.

Are you okay with Clarence Thomas accepting millions of dollars in lavish gifts/trips from people whose cases were being heard before the court? Because that's what the code of ethics is referring to.

I am in support of anything that ends the current gerontocracy in our three branches of government.

Clarence Thomas adheres to the constitution with his rulings. He's an incredible supreme court judge. I've already made it clear that as long as a code of ethics means not accepting lavish gifts, then I'm for it. but you never know what will actually be proposed. This is why I can't go by just a headline.

Yeah, no. A judge who voted to declare a President to be above the law when committing "official acts" does not adhere to the constitution.

He is also openly corrupt, has accepted millions in bribes, and his wife is an insurrectionist. Thanks for the laugh, but nah man :lol:

Whether Fred had any animus towards black people, your can be sure he has a preference for money. So any preference he showed for one group over another would have been based in reputation, past experience or perhaps the biases of other tenants and the need to keep them happy and renting.

But it's sad that this is the best the media has when Donald's whole life has been the exact opposite. I just find the double standard funny.

Biden told a black man to his face that if y'all don't vote for him then you aren't black. Hillary talked down to black people pretending she carries hot sauce on her purse lol. But people are up in arms about Trump? It's really funny and weird at the same time.



Trump was 27 and President of the organization. He wasn't some intern.

Morse says she reported her experience to the Human Rights Commission, and then returned to the apartment building. After she was offered a lease, the black man who had tried to rent the apartment entered the office with a city human rights commissioner, and the three of them confronted the building superintendent.

"He said, 'Well, I'm only doing what my boss told me to do — I am not allowed to rent to black tenants,' " Morse says.

The commissioner asked the building superintendent to take him to his boss. That turned out to be Trump Management.

And? I mean none of this is relevant to anything. If you want to feel he's a racist, so be it. Why is Joe Biden not being held to the same standard? If being a racist is such a big deal, then why are black people voting at all? I mean I couldn't stop laughing when Biden said to a black man's face that if you don't vote for him you ain't black. Then this man who I've witnessed rile other black men up to the point of wanting to commit violence, this guy just starts yucking it up and looking to the ground like a clown. Quite the sight to behold.


Its relevant cause your excuse for trump just being along for the ride is comical. Imagine a 27 year old, President of a company not knowing what was going on, like he is a intern getting coffee. Come on

Joe Biden saying "If you vote for Trump, you ain't Black" is a case of "he's out of line, but he's right".

Voting for a guy that openly discriminates against Latinos, Muslims, and calls neo nazis very fine people, while coordinating with white supremacist extremist groups to stage an insurrection at the Capitol building is a pretty precarious thing to do for Black folks. But that's for us to say, not Joe.

And frankly, I don't care. It ain't like Joe is the first white man to say something he shouldn't. I took no malice from the comment either.

They are.

Win desperately need to get Biden to drop out of the race. His poll numbers are dropping in swing states. And I can only understand over other word that comes out of his mouth.

The speculation is that the Dems with wait out the week but if Biden doesn’t drop out, they re going to all go public.

Btw, JFK Jr. is disgusting.

$4,042,286 in "gifts" since 2004, to be exact. And keep in mind he was sworn in more than 10 years before that. So the exact total is undoubtedly even higher.

Seriously, this is just another example of how completely broken the system is. As a journalist they drilled into your head that you can't even accept a free lunch from anyone you're dealing with in a professional capacity. And yet, just because it isn't explicitly outlined in a specific code of ethics, somebody who is apparently intelligent enough to graduate from law school can't figure out that accepting lavish and expensive "gifts" from billionaires whose cases and causes he could rule on is deeply, deeply unethical?

Lol, right. Right.

And that's before you even get into his insurrectionist wife, whose activism based on illegal bullsht raises even more issues about his (severe lack of) ethics.

(Side note: This is a fun quote from one of her aunts from an old Washington Post article when he was first nominated -- "He treated her so well, all of his other qualities made up for his being Black." loooooooooooooooooooool. No wonder Samuel L. Jackson calls him Uncle Clarence.)

No, the claim is that wasn't his decision. But more importantly, I'm not going to cherry pick if we are going to waste time going down the who is a racist rabbit hole. Joe 'racial jungle' Biden.

I work in pharma. I don't work in the field or anything but even I have to undergo training that forbids me from accepting free meals or gifts from anyone we're doing business with.

It's crazy how there are higher ethical standards for private sector employees compared to the judges on Supreme Court of The United States. Who have none.

And frankly, I'll be honest. I don't think Thomas is the only one. I think all 9 of them have been accepting free stuff.

This shouldn't be a partisan issue.

They should've ran a primary and let him be a one term president. I saw this coming two years ago and have expressed as much a lot. I don't care who runs against Trump...other than RFK Jr.... I'm voting for them.
