I've been watching early 2000s crime dramas, and frankly, seeing the best on offer in the US admin, I can't even imagine there are competent people inside any organization anymore. I feel the writers guild has really polished the balls of people in power, when I'm really seeing a lot of bumbling oafs in charge of stuff, not heroes or anyone willing to actually solve anything.
You heard him. He meant what he said.
Welcome to the United States of Pedophilia
"LEAVE DONNY ALONE!" - Ted Cruz while sobbing uncontrollably.
When people tell you how they are, believe them.
Saying the quiet parts loudly. The conservative way.
Link to the video?

He actually said it 💀
Since when did I need an account to look at Bluesky? I didn't get a Twitter, I'm not getting a bluesky.

I think Bluesky gives you options to limit visibility & replyability of your post

Sorry. Was lazy.
I can download with Firefox and view with VLC . It's probably the second one that is key.
The .ts file extension probably screwed it up, but it is still amusing.
Catbox never loads for me, either.
I'm.convinced catbox isn't even a real site.
Damn he actually straight up says we need to stop attacking pedophiles
Here's an YT link, sorry about that!
Nothing to be sorry about! I think everyone blames bluesky. I'm mostly surprised really.
2/3 ain’t bad.
What could he possibly mean?!
The context is:
"We should have bipartisan agreement."
"How about we all come together and say 'Let's stop murders.'"
"How about we all come together and say 'Let's stop rapes.'"
"How about we all come together and say 'Let's stop attacking pedophiles.'"
Then he shows a chart that supposedly shows the rate of various crimes fell while the national guard was in town. Based on how he phrased things, he probably meant to name another crime. Like, maybe "Let's stop pedophiles attacking children" or something like that. But man, this definitely isn't a slip where the other thing someone probably meant to say is obvious. And, he didn't correct himself, so there's no way to know what he actually meant to say.
He wrote that shit down and read it. He consciously looked at it, said "yep" and then said it aloud. There was no filter in his mind that what was going out into the world was absolutely heinous and deplorable. That says more to me than any Freudian slip.
He (or one of his staffers) wrote something down, and thought he read what was written. Maybe he did, maybe he didn't. But, you can't convince me it wasn't a slip.
Let's say he is a pedophile, or he wants to support people who are. Why would he be the one to lead the charge? Has he ever struck anybody as being brave, or as willing to lead from the front? Why would he do it at this time, and do it in such a strange way?
Either he's a pedophile or the people pulling his strings are. Either way, the outcome is the same, the GOP is a party that protects (and has tons of) pedophiles.
We always known this (look at how they try to lower the age of consent/marriage), but now they're not really keeping the mask up. Gonna be interesting to see how many red hats heel turn to saying pedophelia is ok because Daddy trump said so.
They've always thought it was okay. Red States are hotbeds of teen pregnancy, and we all know how pregnancies happen.
That is my question exactly. He obviously wouldn't admit to this, though I'm sure it's his actual feeling on the matter
Get me out of this fucking state holly shit.
I never thought I'd say it, but Ted Cruz is right.
Won't somebody please think of the pedophiles?
For those that never act on it, I hope they get psychiatric help. For those that have, jail and help. I have no clue how such a sickness can be helped though (I am against death penalties and sexual mutilation, so no.) But protecting them? Ignoring them? Helllllll no.
Fucking spineless moron.
