Scalia was the deciding vote in the infamous "Citizens United" case which gives politicians the right to accept "dark money" in unlimited amounts from unnamed donors.

Campaigns are costing over a $ billion these days...that kind of money doesn't come from ma and pa donating $10.
The SCOTUS...there's a corrupt place. Corrupt president and senators (the foxes) decide who will watch them and guard the chicken coop.

omg a political conspiracy. the dark money you refer to represent donors who desire to donate in private because in the past have been targeted and harassed by leftist zealots.
if you want to talk dark money let me ask you what you call the extortion used by union of union and non union members. P E A S E

I realize you have been told this, but how many realize the protests are NOT against the flag
You and some of our "talker" have decided what these protests are about, and they are so wrong...so very wrong.
Perhaps, someone should try listening to what the kneeling represents.
I do not like it, but I understand what it is about. Same as in the 1960 olympics....raised fists were NOT anti american or anti flag.
We, today, seem to listen to false pretenses used by some to make their own case.
Our President wants truely to divide this country and will do whatever he needs to accomplish that goal of his, which he maintains not so privately. He has the bully pulpit and he takes all you folks down a disaster and hate filled road.

Name one instance where Trump raised the issue of race?
However, go back and view video on the number of times that Obama spoke publicly about the racism leveled against blacks from Professor Gates to Ferguson to his attendance, at the Black congressional Caucus to a number of writings in his books.
Obama was and is the impetus of this racial divide. His forte' was and is as a community organizer. His intent for becoming president was to sow the seeds of disconnect. The left has moved from claims of "white privilege" to claims of "white supremacy
The hypocrisy of these claims when a black guy was elected/reelected president goes beyond the pale

You imply blacks have it bad in current day America? Is that what you're saying? A black woman can receive up to $60,000 in government benefits. Most of the black women are on welfare. Black men ride along. We support almost an entire race in the inner city, dirty, dangerous slums.
They use them to keep us divided against each other. They keep the racial tensions up with their policies and laws. Forced integration being the most destructive. I'll ask again...where did diversity...bringing in black people...EVER...make a place better?

White people should have read his books BEFORE voting for him...his Mein Kampf.
Under Obama...America became a minority majority. Minorities will now call most of the political shots. America will soon be a VERY different place. More like Mexico...a Mexico II. Luckily, Hispanics hate blacks too...so I'd expect their population to plummet. Not many blacks in Latin and South America. They won't put up with them...they're smarter than we are in that way.
What goes beyond the pale is that white people voted for a black man. Didn't they notice that EVERY city run by a black...sucks? Didn't they notice that EVERY country run by blacks suck? Good thing the president in America is just a talking head...but to vote for him...really shows ignorance.

You folks have it figured out...his message.
Well over 85% of posts on here (about 100% on this issue) ..the 85 refers to all posts are about race.
Thus he is conveying to you the message he wants..you get what he is saying.
You are being sucked into a very ugly abyss, cornering folks that ARE treated differently, despite whatever yo are saying.
He has you already....You needed very little to "get it" as it appears that you spent eight years "stewing" in hate.
As we watch him mock, and drag you folks along, war heros like McCain because he won't go along. Mike Allen reporting how Trump enjoys mocking McCains handshake.
What a simply terrible human being Trump is.
And if you "know it all" would listen, the actions are NOT ANTI AMERICAN OR ANTI FLAG. However, if you listened it would hinder what you want.
But you knew and know that

As you know, because you might post as if you were a dumb ass but dont think you really are, THAT action simply is the edge of his dispicable character traits.
But back to my point....he has all of you at rapt attention....race, race....no health insurance plans (NOTHING but lets repeal what we have...no discussion on what might replace it).. Nothing but sarcasm as Trump plays his word games with the guy in North Korea and closes all door to solutions (now he is ignoring advice from his own team to shut up)..no "discussion of tax breaks" simply more of his illogical false promises to his base, of which most post on here..NO talk of the budget and the cuts made, and how in the hell we run a state department like this..and of course no talk of bringing us together as a country; simply snide smart ass juvenile comments if you do not agree with him.
And of course lets just ignore the cyber intrusions by a foreign government because Trump said it was a hoax, and we should not even look into it and has fired anyone who even suggests looking at his record. You do know that the Russians were actually inside over 30 state election programs during the campaign ? No votes changed THIS ELECTION ANYWAY.
But again, why discuss things like that when he knows damn well all of you will bite on the race issue, so he simply feeds you his crap. Let us ignore the fact that more and more of his own staff used private servers inside the White House to do government business,but how could that be.....of course they did nothing wrong.....they are shining examples of wonderful honest, trustworthy people.
Nah....lets beat up on the race issue and make it all about race. Of course Trump cannot be racist...his history is all made up fake news, right ?

We can't afford to spend and borrow over a $ trillion a year and give it away to minorities. Only about 10% of welfare recipients are white...those women usually have black kids.
Minorities are now the majority. We're a bankrupt country and it's because of the enormous drain of the poor. We can only afford so much...to so many...we've gone way past that point. Over a $ trillion a year for welfare is crazy...it's why we're overrun with minorities. It's why we have 50 million anchor babies. They called themselves white...but they are really C and S American natives...indians. Very few have a lot of Spanish blood.

Another disgruntled libtard that has no clue. Like the race issue was made up by the right. And like the Russians are coming, the Russians are coming. How long do you need to investigate before you realize they really don't care enough to bother with us? They did not elect Trump, Americans did. You need to face reality and get past your denial.

It is interesting that folks like you, devoid of any facts or knowledge, simply make things up OR tell folks how they feel.
Not disgruntled "libtard".....a very disgruntled American
Nobody at any time ever said anytime that the race issue was made up by anyone. Mostly, I say you folks have called it a "gig" and act as if it did not exist, so basically, the CURRENT right which is extreme ignores it and wants to part of a solution. (sort of like health care).
What I do know is that your ilk does not CARE one iota that a foreign power, does not matter who, infiltrated and tried to change our electoral system and that does not scare you. THAT fact is a bit scary...that you just do not even care.
You care, AS I DID, about the Clinton private servers, but not the ones currently in the White House. You care, as I did, about foreign influence with any charitable foundations, but not about influence over our elections. You care about certain "alleged" corruption in foundations, as I do, but do not care about proven corruption in the Trump foundation.
These are things I know and that makes me a very disgruntled and disappointed American because continuation down that road we have seen in the history of the world and it does not end well.
Silencing or demeaning the free press has been tried in the past and it did not come out very well

You don't KNOW any of those things...you've been TOLD and you believe.
As for the destruction of America...it is/will be the minority majority. When white people are 20% of the population...in about 30 years...America will be no more.
You are PAYING minorities to breed you out...you are PAYING minorities to become the new controlling majority.
You are fools.
You all tell me I'm wrong...but NONE of you have gone down to any MLK Blvd to see for yourself. You haven't gone to a formerly "white" school that has "diversified" and seen what a terrible thing that has happened. You haven't seen formerly wonderful "white" neighborhoods become run down, dirty, slums. You haven't found the black villages, the Hispanic villages, the "brown" Oxford, the "brown" IBM or Amazon or Google...because WHITE PEOPLE are the ONLY ones who do that. Whites are the only ones who CAN do that. WE built Western Civilization, WE invented and built EVERYTHING you see around you. Blacks didn't even have the f@cking wheel...and you call them our peers? We were circumnavigating the world...they were being carried away in cages. Oh yes...we're "equals". After 150 years of independence...white people still have to provide for their every need. How long have the black children in Africa been starving?

As an observation.....
Notice the threads and posts on TOTV on the "regular" board condemning the NFL, and speaking (incorrectly) of protests against he flag being allowed.
However, should you disagree, it is political and taken down.
Find the censorship to be interesting and sparks a renewed interest in history.

So, lets see if we have this right. The President is not presidential and I am sure this is a historic first, because all his predecessors were perfect. So, since he is not PC and some do not like him; and of course it's not because they voted for someone else. So, his policies are not being disputed, just hindered and frozen in congress because he is not LIKED. So, D.C. cannot function as adults and work FOR the people because they have a grudge, Dem and Repub against the legally and fairly elected president. No wonder this country is going down the tubes, something in the air must be making everyone's minds into childish tantrum organisms. So, now everyone is thinking ONLY about what is good for them, not the country. Pretty soon other countries are going to stop loaning us money to bail us out of bankruptcy and then we are in deep doo doo. So, what will our 50% of the population going to do when there is no more money to pay for their entitlements? And congress wants to add more benefits for the non-productive because they are sympathetic to their plight (lazy). Does this not worry anyone?
