Intolerance might come back and bite the people responsible...

Here We Go: Federal Investigations Begin Into San Antonio, Buffalo Airport Bans On Chick-Fil-A
“The Department of Transportation has received complaints alleging discrimination by two airport operators against a private company due to the expression of the owner’s religious beliefs,” the agency said in a statement provided to Fox News.
According to the agency, federally funded airports cannot discriminate on the basis of religion. “The FAA notes that federal requirements prohibit airport operators from excluding persons on the basis of religious creed from participating in airport activities that receive or benefit from FAA grant funding,” it said.
In response to the San Antonio move, Texas Attorney General (R) Ken Paxton ordered his office to investigate the actions of the city council. In the letter he sent to San Antonio’s mayor and city council members, Paxton copied U.S. Dept. of Transportation Sec. Elaine Chao.

So the bottom line here folks, is that the millions in funding that comes from the Federal Government for these two airports could be in jeopardy if they find that the Airports discriminated against Chick-Fil-A based on the owner's religious beliefs.

The problem for these commissions or city counsels is that as a matter of legal merit, they would be required to show that the business of Chick-Fil-A was discriminatory against the parties they claim that Chick-Fil-A has harmed. But pretty much everyone suggests that the businesses are run without any discrimination of any kind.

The complaints are very specific to the religious beliefs of the owners involved, and the fact that those owners gave money to organizations that shared their religious beliefs. The entire motive for banning Chick-Fil-A is because the religious beliefs of the owners "trigger" certain people, and then those people become "offended".

The motive to ban Chick-Fil-A was entirely to push the new political view that is looking to mainstream the intolerance and exclusive nature of the liberal left. You know, the sort of intolerance and exclusion that become the normal of those who see themselves as "woke".

It's time these petty tyrants are held accountable for their actions.

DID PRESIDENT TRUMP share a fake clip of Nancy Pelosi? The seemingly simple question is a vexing one to answer. Passing judgment on his behavior is less challenging.

Conservative accounts on social media circulated a clip this week deliberately distorted to make it seem as if the speaker of the House was slurring her speech: “Drunk as a skunk,” commentators declared. The video, which some declared a “deepfake,” employed much too simple technology to merit that term. Deepfakes use artificial intelligence to synthesize human images into a reality that is entirely fabricated; the smear of Ms. Pelosi merely slowed down parts of an existing interview and modified her pitch.

The clip Mr. Trump tweeted alongside the words “PELOSI STAMMERS THROUGH NEWS CONFERENCE” was part of the same narrative, but it was not distorted, or even doctored, so much as it was edited. The clip splices together short segments of Ms. Pelosi (D-Calif.) stuttering in a lowlight reel that offered a misleading impression of a perfectly coherent 21-minute news conference. Mr. Trump did not make this video, or pull it from the right-wing fever swamps of social media. He took it instead from the fever swamp of Fox Business Network.

The clamor for firms such as YouTube, Facebook and Twitter to remove or limit the distribution of these clips as misinformation invites a vexing debate about what counts as fake in the first place. The “slurring” video, accompanied by manufactured accusations of drunkenness, may fall on one side of the line. The stammering video may fall on the other. But drawing that line at all has far-reaching implications. People edit videos all the time, sometimes for fun and sometimes to prove a political point. When does editing become doctoring, and when does doctoring become distorting? Is distorting always impermissible, or does it depend on intent, effect or something else altogether?

These difficulties both are caused by and contribute to the erosion of trust in today’s America, where it is hard to say what there is more of: false cries of “fake news,” or viral “news” that is actually fake. Technology certainly has helped this issue along, providing both an easy means to craft propaganda and an easy means to promote it. The increasing sophistication of image editing that creates the threat of actual deepfakes filling the Web will make that worse.

In the best of circumstances, the emergence of these tools for mass deception would be disturbing. It becomes absolutely alarming at a time when America is led by somebody who is intent on deceiving. The role of a responsible leader is to be a bulwark against an assault on truth, yet instead Mr. Trump is a battering ram. That’s not a problem Twitter or any other platform can solve.

If Bill Clinton had investigated the investigators against him after he was acquitted, you would have lost your fucken mind.

But Scott you have already lost your mind.

Ken Starr secured over 30 felony charges during his Whitewater investigation.

Every last one of them specifically involved Whitewater. They were not process crimes, or unrelated inherited investigations. They were crimes specifically associated with Whitewater.

They went as high as the Governor of Arkansas.

Of course people would have found it odd that this investigation would have been "investigated".


idiot!

C.H. Truth said...

Two thirds of us Americans Roger...

Are all patriotic enough to want to see if to what degree our Law Enforcement didn't play by the rules...


You do understand that simple concept, right Roger?

That the Inspector General has already uncovered violations?

We already know that people working on the election investigations broke the rules of the Department of Justice, have already been disciplined, and that some have been referred for criminal charges.


THIS IS TRUE...

it's not a delusional fantasy about a crazy Trump Putin conspiracy to "steal an election" from Hillary Clinton, like a bad novel.


WE KNOW IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED!!!

WE know people within the FBI broke the rules?


Why do you defend that? Why do you want to sweep it under the rug?

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

34 people he indicted along the way

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

You believe people within the FBI broke the rules, and played a key part in the decision to investigate the Russian intervention into the election.



34 people have been indicted.

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

You choose to believe people within the FBI broke the rules, in order to overthrow the President. His words!

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

Good bye

So there was never ANY excuse to start the investigation.

I'm not going to waist my time here anymore.

C.H. Truth said...

34 people have been indicted.

Only seven Americans, three for process crimes, two for financial crimes in Ukraine having nothing to do with the election, one for financial crimes in New York having nothing to do with the election, and a random guy who sold fake FB accounts.


Literally "nobody from America" was charged by Mueller with criminal acts having anything to do with what Mueller was tasked to investigate.

Nobody from America. Not a single person charged with being a Russian agent, conspiring with Russians, or aiding and abetting Russians.


So stick your 34 number up your ass Roger. It's a fucking twist of the truth, because the truth sucks for you!!!

C.H. Truth said...

I am not Trump Roger. Nobody speaks for me.


The reality is that we have an Inspector General report coming out that has plenty of people within the FBI, intelligence community, Obama administration, and Democratic Party pretty damned nervous all of a sudden.

If it shows that people within our law enforcement community did not follow the rules, then I want a prosecutor to follow up and decide whether or not they broke more than rules...


Two thirds of Americans agree with me.


You have no logical argument other than your crazy loony idea that the entire Justice Department is suddenly being run by a crazy dictator. The Inspector General in question is an Obama appointee.

In late March, the San Antonio city council voted to effectively ban the restaurant from their airport for seven years after a report from the liberal website Think Progress was released detailing Chick-fil-A’s 2017 charitable contributions.

Only seven Americans, three for process crimes,

A quick recap for the weak minded Lil Scotty......hopefully you will see the errors in your faulty memory and admit you were full of shit, again.....BWAAAAAAAA!!!


Leading to the impeachment, Independent Counsel Ken Starr turned over documentation to the House Judiciary Committee. Chief Prosecutor David Schippers and his team reviewed the material and determined there was sufficient evidence to impeach the president. As a result, four charges were considered by the full House of Representatives; two passed, making Clinton the second president to be impeached, after Andrew Johnson in 1868, and only the third against whom articles of impeachment had been brought before the full House for consideration (Richard Nixon resigned from the presidency in 1974, while an impeachment process against him was underway).

The trial in the United States Senate began right after the seating of the 106th Congress, in which the Republican Party held 55 Senate seats. A two-thirds vote (67 senators) was required to remove Clinton from office. Fifty senators voted to remove Clinton on the obstruction of justice charge and 45 voted to remove him on the perjury charge; no member of his own Democratic Party voted guilty on either charge. Clinton, like Johnson a century earlier, was acquitted on all charges.


In 1994, Paula Jones filed a lawsuit accusing Clinton of sexual harassment when he was governor of Arkansas. Clinton attempted to delay a trial until after he left office, but in May 1997 the Supreme Court unanimously ordered the case to proceed and shortly thereafter the pre-trial discovery process commenced. Jones' attorneys wanted to prove that Clinton had engaged in a pattern of behavior with women that lent support to her claims. In late 1997, Linda Tripp began secretly recording conversations with her friend Monica Lewinsky, a former intern and Department of Defense employee, in which Lewinsky divulged that she had had a sexual relationship with the President. Tripp shared this information with Paula Jones' lawyers, who put Lewinsky on their witness list in December 1997. According to the Starr report, after Lewinsky appeared on the witness list Clinton began taking steps to conceal their relationship, including suggesting she file a false affidavit, suggesting she use cover stories, concealing gifts he had given her, and helping her obtain a job to her liking.

Clinton gave a sworn deposition on January 17, 1998, where he denied having a "sexual relationship", "sexual affair" or "sexual relations" with Lewinsky. He also denied that he was ever alone with her. His lawyer, Robert S. Bennett, stated with Clinton present that Lewinsky's affidavit showed that there was no sex in any manner, shape or form between Clinton and Lewinsky. The Starr Report states that the fo

Pay attention Denny...

We were comparing the investigations between Whitewater and the Russian collusion probe. Roger was citing Mueller's indictments, I was citing Starr's indictments.

Ken Star Whitewater indictments:
Jim Guy Tucker: Governor of Arkansas at the time, resigned (fraud, 3 counts)
John Haley: attorney for Jim Guy Tucker (tax evasion)
William J. Marks, Sr.: Jim Guy Tucker's business partner (conspiracy)
Stephen Smith: former Governor Clinton aide (conspiracy to misapply funds). Bill Clinton pardoned.
Webster Hubbell: Clinton political supporter; U.S. Associate Attorney General; Rose Law Firm partner (embezzlement, fraud)
Jim McDougal: banker, Clinton political supporter: (18 felonies, varied)
Susan McDougal: Clinton political supporter (multiple frauds). Bill Clinton pardoned.
David Hale: banker, self-proclaimed Clinton political supporter: (conspiracy, fraud)
Neal Ainley: Perry County Bank president (embezzled bank funds for Clinton campaign)
Chris Wade: Whitewater real estate broker (multiple loan fraud). Bill Clinton pardoned.
Larry Kuca: Madison real estate agent (multiple loan fraud)
Robert W. Palmer: Madison appraiser (conspiracy). Bill Clinton pardoned.
John Latham: Madison Bank CEO (bank fraud)
Eugene Fitzhugh: Whitewater defendant (multiple bribery)
Charles Matthews: Whitewater defendant (bribery)

C.H. Truth said...

And btw Denny,

Ken Starr conclusively wrote that Bill Clinton committed perjury, witness tampering, and obstruction of Justice - but was not indicted due to the fact that you cannot indict a sitting President.

He didn't pull the old not going to draw a normal conclusion and leave it up to anyone else. Nor did he suggest whether or not he could exonerate anyone.

And you were fucking wrong and refuse to admit it by changing the subject.....asshole!!!! And unlike the current asshole....trump was given a pass on criminal behavior because his water boy Barr gave him a pass......mueller a pass because of internal DOJ policy that sure did not occur with clinton and the jones trial to proceed.....Dayum you have a shitty memory there lil scotty!!!!!!

Religious discrimination.

BWAAAAAAPAAAAAA!!!!!!! Sure that's what you got from the articles cramps.......

Two losers get their ass handed to them in a single POST!!!!!! Gee, this is fun!!!!

Ken Star Whitewater indictments:

And according to your bias....none of these count.....fucking asshole...
Pay attention CH.....That group is composed of six former Trump advisers, 26 Russian nationals, three Russian companies, one California man, and one London-based lawyer. Seven of these people (including five of the six former Trump advisers) have pleaded guilty.

If you also count investigations that Mueller originated but then referred elsewhere in the Justice Department, you can add a plea deal from one more person to the list.

BTW....it ain't done yet as the are a half dozen on going investigations still proceeding....

You lose again!!!!! BWAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! An indictment is an indictment no matter what your opinion is!!!!!!!

He pledged an appeal against the decision by what he called “another activist Obama appointed judge.” The plaintiffs in the case argued that President Trump violated the Constitution.
