This Woman May Have Saved Us All

Democratic Sen. Mazie Hirono: ‘Believe In Climate Change As Though It’s A Religion’ [More]
Yes! Goddess Gaia bless you, woman!

Because, as anyone who has taken the oath to the Constitution should know, the First Amendment, ruled applicable to all levels of government, clearly states:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion...

Nothing to See Here

No, America isn’t heading toward another civil war [More]

Oops.

And like I've said:
First of all, an embedded asset for coup plotters is hardly a "whistleblower." Real whistleblowers did not hide behind anonymity once protection was provided.

Roberts* and Who Else?

[More]
Per CNBC:
The Supreme Court said Tuesday that it will not hear a closely watched case against gunmaker Remington, a move the company has warned could potentially increase the liability of firearm manufacturers to suits brought by victims of gun crimes.
Why? Isn't the law clear?

All SCOTUSblog says is:
Remington Arms Co. v. Soto Petition for certiorari denied on November 12, 2019

* And no, I'm not sure about him, but based on his record of betrayal it wouldn't surprise me.

How about any one of them against Beto, Swalwell, Shannon Watts, David Hogg and Alyssa Milano combined? Since we're told prevailing public opinion believes they're right, they'll just take the gun away from her and no harm done...

A Leading Question

"The question we had to ask ourselves is 'do you require a gun that can have 20- or 30-round magazines attached to them ... [More]
The answer, if the goal is "the security of a free State," is "Yes, goddamn right I do, lying Marxist bitch."

Which is why tyrants like her ban them.
