Totally false viewpoint with a copious amount of an agenda.

Ashli Babbitt was murdered. That is a stand alone statement of fact not associated with any other external event.

The party is supposed to be a tool to help the country. But too many tools want the country to 'help' them.

If you think she was, what is your opinion on Mr. Floyd?

How was Ashli Babbitt murdered? Who committed the crime?

Those are rhetorical questions. Babbitt deserved to be shot for ignoring a lawful order and trying to penetrate a secure area of the Capitol. All she had to do was back off, and she would have been fine. In jail, most likely, but not dead.

At least you admit that. That said Babbitt was killed by police not murdered. She was far more at fault than Floyd was.

So who are these “top thinkers“ you refer to? Maybe I’ve been misled because the loudest voices on the right are the extremists. Give some examples of some thinkers on the right that I should listen to.

Molly Hemmingway for starters.

Per poll question - Neither.

SELF. First, last, always.

Self above all others. If there is time left over after self, then immediate family, close friends, etc. If there is time after that, expand the circle a bit, reexamine time. Rinse repeat. I'll never have enough waking time to give one iota of concern or effort to the country or one of the two heads of the political hydra.

Country and party are the same thing if you're a Republican.
