Looks like Federalist Society conservatives are desperate to find anything untoward they can pin on liberal SCOTUS justices after revelations of a bribery scandal with Justices Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch.
Staffers asking college libraries to buy Sotomayer’s books is some weak sauce in comparison.
I don’t agree. This is a very South Park perspective. Yes, all politicians engage in bribery, corruption, and double dealing. No, the parties are not morally equivalent.
Biden has protected his son, but he has consistently displayed an eagerness to help people and to pass useful, popular laws that save lives and shift money downward in the economic pyramid.
Trump passed a tax cut for people with private jets and GW Bush killed 300,000 innocent civilians. It’s insane to pretend there’s a moral equivalence here.
Biden withheld $600 of promised COVID aid when Georgia went to the Democrats.
The messaging went from $2000 checks to “Finish the Job” and they pretended that they’d promised to just tack on $1400 dollars instead. They withheld our own money form us.
But they found $100,000,000,000 to send to another country’s war.
So, no. I don’t buy it.
… well, for one thing, your numbers are a little bit off there. The US is sent about $75 billion to Ukraine, not $100 trillion.
The aid check situation sucked, but that was very much a congress problem caused by the most conservative Dems (one of whom has since left the party).
More to the point, I feel confused by your answer: what is it that you don’t buy? You genuinely feel there’s a moral equivalence across all politicians?
