So that’s what it’s short for!

Speaking as a person with a degree in criminology, crime prevention is one million percent more effective than reactionary measures. If we took the polices budget, cut it in half, and invested that money into programs that made it so people didn't need to commit crimes (like the aforementioned drug abuse and mental health services) the crime rate would genuinely plummet. Even if every cop in the country was instantly vaporized. They don't invest in preventative measures like this because prisoners are effectively slaves who work for pennies per hour, and we make way more money putting them away than rehabilitating them. The system is also designed in a way to make people repeat offenders. It's generational too. If I remember correctly, having any living family member with a criminal history makes you 75% more likely to become one yourself. The system is designed in a way to manufacture as many criminals as possible. People are forced into situations where they either have to commit crimes, or can't stop themselves from committing crimes. Whenever the Republicans whine about high crime rates, know that their party is the one responsible. They're the ones consistently opposing rehabilitation programs and preventative measures. Historically, its the liberal politicians and democrats trying to put those systems in place, but they routinely fail. Most people not educated on this subject assume that deterrents like prison and fines is the best way to fight crime, and that if you're not locking people up with harsh sentences, we simply live in a more dangerous society. Factually, in the system as it exists now, deterrents (and especially the death penalty) are functionally useless. I can get into why of people what to know, but my phone is almost dead.

J. D. Vance needs a meeting with Donald Trump as soon as possible. Maybe his bad luck will rub off on him. It might be our only hope...😏😅👇🏾

Any issue the Left wants to talk about has to be reframed or terms conflated so that it conforms to their political bias.

Trump wants to deport illegal immigrants, the left will just say “immigrants”. They blur the distinction.

Any run of the mill semi auto rifle becomes an automatic, high powered, military grade, or assault rifle.

Defunding the department of education becomes eliminating all education.

It’s all lies.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared detailed plans about a military operation against the Houthis in Yemen on a second Signal group chat, this one on his personal phone and included his wife, lawyer and brother. The revelation comes as some of Hegseth’s closest advisers have begun sounding the alarm about the secretary’s judgment, including his former press secretary, John Ullyot, and three former senior officials. “It’s been a month of total chaos at the Pentagon. From leaks of sensitive operational plans to mass firings, the dysfunction is now a major distraction for the president,” Ullyot said. This second Signal chat is in addition to the one last month when Hegseth communicated secret military plans to Cabinet officials and, mistakenly, to the press. That chat is under investigation by the Defense Department’s acting inspector general. A series of leaks about military planning for the Panama Canal and the Middle East, about a possible consolidation of the combatant commands, and a classified China briefing for Elon Musk at the Pentagon, has called into question whether this former Fox News host has the ability to be in charge of one of the largest, and crucially important, organizations in the world. These repeated, serious blunders and acts of negligence have brought into deep focus the degree to which Hegseth's incompetence and lack of experience could jeopardize America's national security — even some Republicans are calling for his removal. Btw, to launch nuclear weapons, Trump only needs the approval of one other person — the Secretary of Defense.

She couldn’t recall the exact date, true, but common in trauma and not legally required? Courts acknowledge this in sexual assault cases.

The jury still found her credible, even after cross-examination. This wasn’t a “Democrat setup.” The jury was selected using normal procedures, not party affiliation.

Reid Hoffman’s involvement was disclosed. Carroll didn’t even know about the funding at first, and the judge ruled it had no impact on the case.

Trump confused Carroll with his ex-wife Marla Maples in a photo, destroying his claim that he “never met her.”

The “rape is sexy” quote was cut mid-sentence. In that same interview, Carroll says clearly she doesn’t think rape is sexy, and she was describing how the public often romanticizes it. Nice attempt at manipulation again, you’re bad at this.

The Law & Order episode thing is a coincidence and irrelevant, a court ruled her case strong enough to go to trial, and a jury decided based on testimony and evidence, not TV shows.

Trump had every chance to testify under oath or provide his own evidence and didn’t. That silence speaks volumes.

At this point, trying to reason with you is like arguing with a brick wall. You’re drowning in conspiracies and misinformation, and none of it changes the actual verdict or the facts. Keep coping.

Since when do they care about women 🤣

Love how we’re just going to ignore all of the people who are dead because of the denial of medical benefits by this CEO and his company and the fact no one is dead because of Kilmar Ábrego García and his wife has even publicly stated “After surviving domestic violence in a previous relationship, I acted out of caution following a disagreement with Kilmar. Things did not escalate, and I decided not to follow through with the civil court process. We were able to work through the situation privately as a family.”

She was there, you weren’t. You don’t get to rewrite the story because it doesn’t fit your narrative.
