  1. Makes you wonder why the IRS audits overwhelmingly poor counties the most

  2. Isn’t the Somali daycare thing a pizzagate type deal?

  3. Ingroups whom the law protects but does not bind

    Outgroups whom the law binds but does not protect

  4. is this asshat actually comparing somali refuges and their descendants to the rich and powerful on the Epstein list?

    You all see the slimy game he is playing here right?

  5. Marx was right.

    Which is exactly why the media has spent so much effort trying to make marxism mean things it doesn’t.

  6. We have a chance to do something about it, come midterm, and all the elections to follow, if we don’t take the “chum.”

  7. Lots of people commenting about how the Somali incidents are “made-up.” I assumed the same, and while their reaction is disproportianate, ignores other larger problems and is almost certainly motivated primarily by race.. it IS in fact a problem and this particular epidemic of fraud DOES seem to be perpetuated overwhelmingly by Somali nationals (something like 90% of the cases charged so far according to multiple independent outlets.)

    Facts matter even when they’re inconvenient.

  8. There have been indictments, arrests, and sentencing for the fraud in MN though…?

    This shit has been reported on as early as 2014. Took off in 2016, arrests made in 2022/23.

  9. Epstein was a billionaire, and died in prison in questionable circumstances. Wealth doesn’t always equal immunity.

  10. Remember the Panama papers? Too many people don’t, because crimes by elites don’t bother them, only “welfare queens”.

  11. it’s wild how billionaires can dodge accountability with lawyers, but i get fined for forgetting recycling day

  12. Serious question, has anything in the released Epstien files yet about anyone, actually been shown to be evidence of a crime?

  13. There will be no negative consequences for the employers who hired the “illegal immigrants”, including Trump. They committed the same fact same level of civil offense and financially benefitted from knowingly violating the law. The working class has their lives destroyed while the owner class laughs at the law and keeps the profits.

  14. “Did someone say my name?”

    No, not fuckin Daniel Dennehy!

    Yeah get out of here dude!

    “Oh, Bye-ee”

  15. “The common sense of mankind demands that law shall not stop with the punishment of petty crimes by little people. It must also reach men who possess themselves of great power and make deliberate and concerted use of it to set in motion evils which leave no home in the world untouched.”

    – Robert H. Jackson – Opening Statement before the International Military Tribunal – Nuremberg 1945

  16. The system is working as expected, the law in a capitalist system is a tool for the rich to keep the working class in check.

  17. Bourgeois “democracy” and bourgeois state doing bourgeois things

  18. Ex prince Andrew, still rich. He should be in jail or well on his way, but naa, he lost his lordship!

  19. Did DOGE fire the federal employees whose job was tracking down fraud like the fake daycare fraud? 

  20. This is such a brain dead take for like 9 different reasons. 

    On a basic level the number of people who do things like double park or pay their taxes late vastly outnumber the other two categories and they do not get “crushed” for it. Most of them don’t even get punished. Most of us probably break rules and laws every day in some facet or another. 

    This is a victim complex of the highest order where some white dude got a parking ticket once and the whole world is out to screw him. 

    The rich people in the Epstein case won’t face justice because these idiots voted to elect someone who was a corrupt accomplice to spearhead the movement. It’s their own fault. 

    The Somali daycare thing they don’t even have a basic understanding of but are using it as political fodder because they know it works to rile up their fellow sheep. MAGA and conservatives are their own imagined nightmares. 

  21. I was just watching a documentary on the fall of Rome. They pin-pointed 3 causes.

    1) Nativist movement by those who felt themselves the *real* Romans as opposed to the foreign born incorporated into the empire through conquest.

    2) The wealthy hoarding resources.

    3) The fall of rule of law.

  22. Nearly 100 people since 2014 have already gone to jail for the daycare stuff.

    Republicans & their outlets always leave that part out.

  23. >”Or pays a tax bill 0.1 days late”

    You literally have 3 years to file your taxes… If you owe, there will be interest tacked on, but no one is hunting you down for a few years late, let alone one day.

  24. Nearly a hundred people have been charged and, many already sentenced in the daycare thing. (Under Biden btw, as Trump is trying to take credit).

    It’s just Epstein and his friends that Trump wants to protect.
