This is, pretty much in its entirety, in response to one Daniel Banyai, owner and operator of Slate Ridge paramilitary training facility in West Pawlet, VT.

Long story short, this prick has been terrorizing his neighbors for years.

In Slate Ridge case, judge tells Daniel Banyai to remove structures on property or face jail time

Shooting range target of controversy

The property owner, Daniel Banyai, and groups of men armed with large guns, have had confrontational exchanges with local residents many times over the past four years. Neighbors say the site sounds like a “war zone.”

If they’re to guard illegal activities, nope.

When the GOP nominates its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems to us. They’re bringing guns. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people...

Why the hell are they even asking? Just subpoena for the records and get it out in the open

He's sold his conscience about 3 decades ago.. he's got 0 fucks left to give, he's probably laughing at us from his mansion right now, getting a high out of seeing us all so pissed about his ethics violations

You have to give Republicans credit, they have really turned their base into the dumbest people in the world that can't even apply the most basic thinking skills to what they are told.

It is such a simple concept: Your credit card company wants payment every month. Even if you are not putting anything new on the credit card if you aren't paying off the interest every month your debt grows.

The Credit Card debt is what you are required to pay because of stuff you already bought... you don't fix your home budget by simply not paying your credit cards. You made those choices already, you can't debate whether or not to pay off that debt after-the-fact.

“During his brief time in office, Santos has been accused of breaking campaign finance laws, violating federal conflict of interest laws, stealing cash meant for an Iraq War veteran’s dying dog, masterminding a credit card fraud scheme and lying about where he went to school and worked”

Fuck this guy

Reflection is good for the soul. What am I missing from just recently?

Trump loses civil suit for sexual battery and defamation, penalty $5M
Santos charged with federal crimes
Proud Boys convicted of sedition for their role in Jan6
Fox settles for almost $1B for knowingly lying about dominion voting machines
Tucker Carlson fired and leaked texts showing he never believed election lies, hated Trump, and was an obvious white nationalist
Alex Jones loses suit for over $1B for knowingly lying about Sandy Hook and the victims and family members of victims.
Andrew Tate arrested and exposed for clearly manipulating women into sex trafficking
Crowder exposed for the bigot that we all knew he was for how he treated his wife and getting outcast from the Daily Wire and their audience.

What a blatantly political attack by the democrats here. Attacking one of the remaining Founding Fathers.

Had to be a finger because she actually felt something.

...ask Ivanka.

They aren’t patriots and they are cowards who have sold their souls to the highest bidders. I think the people who sacrificed themselves to shield children with their own bodies are more brave and heroic than they could ever hope to be

Donald Trump??? Herpes dispenser?

House cats. Completely convinced of their independence but wholly reliant on a system they refuse to understand.

How about we all do our part and cancel CNN by cutting the cord?

Or at the very least, not watching the townhall, not resharing clips from it on social media, not watching other segments on other networks covering whatever dumb crap Trump says.

They’re bringing on Trump because they think it’ll boost their viewership numbers, views on YouTube clips, etc. Don’t give them that, and they won’t bother to bring Trump on again.

And he knows a thing or two about fair deals with unions. Just ask the rail workers he fucked over

Obligatory Will Rogers quote.

If any of these shooters turns out to be a revolutionary Marxist, the amount of boners among the conservative/far-right will threaten sales of Viagra.

Just have the IRS audit his financials. See if the gifts or contributions were disclosed.

The for profit healthcare system in this country is an abject failure.

Didn't we already learn this lesson in 1980?
