You mean Clarence Thomas didn't put his criminal thumb on the scale to tip the five-justice majority in Bush v. Gore, which halted the manual recount of disputed ballots in Florida, effectively awarding the presidency to George W. Bush?
Either that or Roger Stone, Joel Kaplan, and a host of other deplorable people failed to stop the recount with their riot.
I love to imagine the police actually doing their job and breaking it up the second that Republican Congressman gave the order to riot.
I have a clear memory in high school in 1991 of seeing a newspaper clipping posted about the Anita Hill testimony. I had no idea how bad Republican corruption was going to get.
“She only said all that to get famous” was something I heard a lot of during Lewinsky. Violent barf.
ginny helped the Heritage Foundation in 2000, the brook bro's riot.
kavanaugh was involved in the shit show as well. funny stuff that.
Ginny is the worst human on Earth. But not even the worst person in her marriage.
yeah they're in some sick twisted contest to see who can be more despicable. it's a match made in the 9th plane of hades.
It's wild that whole a full state recount would have been a Gore victory and we know what, but the requested specific recounts would actually have been insufficient to change the outcome.
RCV would have been easily a Gore win.
