On top of the whites vs black thing, look at those number plummeting. Doesn't that get cops some credit?
It should, but then again we still haven't seen a bit of evidence George Floyd's death had anything to do with racism

Why did Trump pardon Roger Stone?

You have a guy like Flynn that is worthy of the support he’s getting, then you have a scummy douche like Roger Stone.

You watch the guy and listen to him talk, he’s an obvious crook. Literally his immediate family would mourn his incarceration, but nobody outside that circle is worried about if a bad guy is serving a few years for being a shit bird.

To keep him quiet! (jk). I wouldn't have pardoned him either, esp before the election. I guess Trump felt his sentence was way too harsh for a non-violent offense. Or he felt the "crime" was bogus.

Stone was pardoned because he was targeted through a bogus investigation and was not indicted for anything in the targeted investigation rather he was indicted for making a false statement regarding the investigation. The rationale is that he would never have been in a position of making a false statement had it not been obtained through circumstances that were not legitimately being investigated. He was set up through a sham investigation to try to squeeze him into giving up information which he didn’t do then there was the typical trap system that the DOJ uses to indict individuals and that’s where the indictment came from.

The Department of Justice Announces Takedown of Key MS-13 Criminal Leadership

Joint Task Force Vulcan is a Coordinated Effort to Dismantle and Destroy MS-13

Today, President Donald J. Trump and Attorney General William P. Barr announced significant cases related to Joint Task Force Vulcan (JTFV), an initiative launched in August 2019 aimed at disrupting, dismantling, and ultimately, destroying MS-13.

President Trump and Attorney General Barr announced a number of significant cases associated with JTFV, including the first time an MS-13 member has been charged with terrorism-related offenses, a coordinated multi-district takedown of the leadership of the Hollywood clique of MS-13, and the Attorney General’s decision to seek the death penalty against an MS-13 defendant.

“In 2017, the President directed the Department of Justice to go to war against MS-13, and we did just that,” said Attorney General Barr. “In coordination with our partners at the Department of Homeland Security, the Justice Department’s law enforcement components have successfully investigated, charged, and arrested command and control elements of MS-13 responsible for murder. Joint Task Force Vulcan’s operations have significantly degraded MS-13 capabilities. While there is still work to be done, the Department of Justice remains committed to protecting Americans threatened by MS-13, and we will not rest until we have successfully defeated this transnational criminal organization.”

“Today’s announcements are the result of tremendous teamwork and coordination between prosecutors and law enforcement officers across the United States and Central America,” said JTFV Director John Durham. “MS-13 is a violent transnational criminal organization, whose criminal activities respect no boundaries. The only way to defeat MS-13 is by targeting the organization as a whole, focusing on the leadership structure, and deploying a whole-of-government approach against a common enemy.”

In an indictment unsealed yesterday, Melgar Diaz was charged in the Eastern District of Virginia with conspiring to provide material support to terrorists; conspiring to kill or maim persons overseas; conspiring to commit acts of terrorism transcending national boundaries; conspiring to finance terrorism, and; conspiring to engage in narco-terrorism, in addition to racketeering conspiracy and drug trafficking. This is the first time that an MS-13 member has been charged with terrorism-related offenses.

Alexi Saenz was indicted in 2017 in the Eastern District of New York. It is alleged that between 2016 and 2017 he committed seven murders: the Jan. 28, 2016, murder of Michael Johnson; the April 29, 2016, murder of Oscar Acosta; the Sept. 13, 2016, murders of Kayla Cuevas and Nisa Mickens; the Oct. 10, 2016, murder of Javier Castillo; the Oct. 13, 2016, murder of Dewann Stacks, and; the Jan. 30, 2017, murder of Esteban Alvarado-Bonilla. Two of the victims were Brentwood high school students killed with a machete and baseball bat. The Attorney General has filed a Notice of Intent to Seek the Death Penalty for Saenz.

In a 24 count indictment unsealed yesterday, the Eastern District of New York, charged eight MS-13 members, including leaders of the East Coast Hollywood Program, with Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization (RICO) and Violent Crimes in Aid of Racketeering (VICAR) charges related to six murders, two attempted murders, kidnapping, narcotics, and related firearms offenses.

In a 21-count indictment unsealed yesterday in the District of Nevada, 13 MS-13 members, including leaders of the “Hollywood Locos” clique and “Los Angeles Program,” were charged with various offenses including Continuing Criminal Enterprise (CCE), narcotics distribution and weapons charges.

In August 2019, Attorney General Barr created JTFV to carry out the recommendations of the MS-13 subcommittee formed under the Attorney General’s Transnational Organized Crime Task Force, which was the result of President Trump’s February 2017 Executive Order directing the Departments of Justice, State, and Homeland Security, and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, to coordinate a whole-of-government approach to dismantle transnational criminal organizations, such as MS-13, and restore safety for the American people. The principal purpose of JTFV is to coordinate and lead the efforts of the Justice Department and U.S. law enforcement agencies against MS-13 in order to dismantle the group.

JTFV has successfully implemented the whole-of-government approach to law enforcement relating to MS-13; increased coordination and collaboration with foreign law enforcement partners, including El Salvador, Mexico, Honduras, and Guatemala; designated priority MS-13 programs, cliques and leaders, who have the most impact on the U.S., for targeted prosecutions, and; coordinated significant MS-13 indictments in U.S. Attorney’s Offices across the country, such as the Eastern District of New York, the Eastern District of Virginia, and the District of Nevada.

Federal prosecutors from the Department of Justice’s National Security Division and the Criminal Division, as well as 10 U.S. Attorney’s Offices have been assigned to serve JTFV in full-time capacities: the Eastern District of New York; the Eastern District of Virginia; the District of Nevada; the Southern District of California; the District of Massachusetts; the Northern District of Ohio; the District of New Jersey; the Eastern District of Texas; the District of Utah, and; the District of Columbia. In addition, all Department of Justice law enforcement agencies are involved in the effort – the Federal Bureau of Investigation; the Drug Enforcement Administration; the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; the U.S. Marshals Service, and; the Bureau of Prisons. The Department of Homeland Security’s Homeland Security Investigations has also played a critical role in JTFV.

Attorney General Barr would also like to thank Attorney General Raul Melara of El Salvador for the assistance of his office, as well as investigators from El Salvador’s Policia Nacional Civil, Centro Antipandilla Transnacional unit for their assistance.

Trump is going to win again.

I’m not gunna lie, the polls have caused some concern/doubt and you always wonder how much of the polling numbers are geared toward suppression.

The thing is, when the polling was so fucked in 2016, and you read about how major pollsters admit that they haven’t fixed their models since 2016, and how it’s difficult for them to reach Trump’s voters because they just don’t know how to get to them, how much faith can you out into these polls?

I’m not voting this time around, and I’m sure there is lots of fatigue from the 3+ years of everyone with a mic beating the dead horse about how terrible he is, but his support among Republicans surely outweighs the lack of enthusiasm where Biden’s bid is concerned.

The question is, in my mind, is how badly does Trump beat Biden?

Durham I’m sure is pulling his hair wondering if he should release his findings before or after the election. If he dumps his findings before the election, he’ll surely be the scapegoat for whoever loses, especially if the information is damaging to the left.

Can you imagine the shitstorm that could potentially be unleashed if Durham finds that high ranking officials in the FBI and Obama administration were acting in a criminal manner?

Coronavirus, Durham report, social unrest. When’s the last time an election had so many different variables determining the outcome?

I think it’s a forgone conclusion the high ranking individuals were involved in a scheme to try to remove a duly elected and sitting President.. That element will be released pretty soon probably in Tandem with Senator Lindsey Graham’s hearing when it is finished. Chances are there will be some indictments before the election.

A million Dems want to defund, and he picks the one Dem who doesn't. Classic Don.

And ultimately, what fucking difference does it make? He may say he doesn't but if that feeble, spineless fuckhead were to ever take office he'd bend to their will in a fucking second. Tell me I'm wrong.

Oh, he's moved far to the Left to appease the Dems' base, but he's from a different generation that doesn't hate cops.
