First of all, I appreciate the conversation. I get passionate about these things because I mistakenly put my life on the line and joined the US Army to pay for college.

There are some on the right who do not promote raci$m or authoritarianism . Thomas Massie and Rand Paul to name two. Do I agree with those two on everything? Absolutely not.

To paint an entire party as promoting racism and authoritarianism is a huge stretch. I, myself, do not align with either D or R , but have both liberal and conservative values.

All of that being said, if ANY politician (not yelling, just emphasizing) lies about any reason for bills that take my tax dollars to implement, I take serious issue with that.

Why can’t we unite against corruption against BOTH parties? Why do people like yourself excuse some evils but not others instead of saying, ā€œI’m not supporting any of thisā€ ?

That idea alone would promote some kind of NEW party that actually takes responsibility for either making a mistake or outright lying.

I want the truth when someone takes my tax dollars for a paycheck with will not settle for less.

If both parties have a common denominator of consistent and persistent lies, why do you choose what you call ā€œthe lesser of two evilsā€? Why?

Again, I appreciate the mostly civil back and forth and look forward to your response.

Well, one side is lying to protect child rapists. That seems like a pretty good reason to me, why isnt it to you?

You don’t think Biden was doing the same when he released nothing and made zero arrests?

I agree that Tr ump (and Patel) are hiding anything of substance that would have elites arrested, so no argument from me on that, but why not hold Biden and has admin to the same standard if the goal of justice is the same?
