They need to free up the cash to pay the CEO bonuses somehow.

It wasn't that hostile. And they never said people couldn't comment, that's a straw man you built entirely on your own.

Why shouldn't they be petty? Trump is a grade school level bully who calls his political opponents "losers" and "nasty people". Tit for tat.

"I love my son Tyler, who has been through some very difficult, public challenges for a young man and the subject of attention that he didn't ask for," the statement said.

She did this by fostering a circus like atmosphere and trying to be Sarah Palin 2.0. I don't even know the names of any other Reps from Colorado, much less anything about their kids. She forced herself and her family into the limelight. Can't blame unwanted attention for being a shitty little criminal. I'd say bad parenting is the more likely culprit.

How exactly do you know the motives of the extreme conservative Justices, half of whom were appointed by Trump? Are you a mind reader?

Your comment is the real rage bait.

This guy is like the anti-Bill Nye. He doesn't want to share his joy of science with you, he doesn't want to educate, he just wants to correct you with some stupid ass analogy. Insufferable. No one asked, Neil.

Arpaio has been accused of numerous types of police misconduct, including abuse of power, misuse of funds, failure to investigate sex crimes, criminal negligence, abuse of suspects in custody, improper clearance of cases, unlawful enforcement of immigration laws, and election law violations. A Federal court monitor was appointed to oversee his office's operations because of complaints of racial profiling. The U.S. Department of Justice concluded that Arpaio oversaw the worst pattern of racial profiling in U.S. history, and subsequently filed suit against him for unlawful discriminatory police conduct.[10] Arpaio and the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office (MCSO) were named as defendants in dozens of civil lawsuits brought by citizens arrested by Arpaio and his deputies alleging wrongful arrest, wrongful death, entrapment and other claims, costing taxpayers in Maricopa County over $140 million in litigation against Arpaio during his tenure as sheriff.

Makes sense. He is almost single-handedly the bad thing.

It's his standard operating procedure: offer a down payment and get the goods, then skip town and never pay the rest. Only I don't think it's going to work out for him this time...

Look at what happened to Liz Cheney. She dared to speak out against the Orange One and she got primaried. They all know it could happen to them too. Trump owns the Republican party lock, stock and barrel.

US courts are sloooow. It's only recently that he's been held accountable at all. Most of these cases will wind on for years. But the bill on this case is due now.

Once Trump starts ranting about him being a RINO he'll be purged from his position in an instant.
