Karmelo Anthony's mother and father on Thursday's 'CBS Mornings'...
"My son didn't intend to hurt anyone. My son was defending himself."
"What stuck out to me, number one, was the all-white jury, but I was trying to be, you know, like, all right, it's not that big of a deal. I mean, the truth is on our side."
The guy went out and got a tattoo of the specific Nazi unit that operated the concentration camps and threw human beings, en masse, into gas chambers. Absolutely wild that the Democrats are supporting this lunatic.
The Committee of Five—John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Robert Livingston, and Roger Sherman—was appointed to draft the Declaration of Independence 250 years ago today.
Jefferson's draft of the document is here at the Library, and will be featured in a new exhibition opening July 3.
@avidseries The SS tattoo and cheering on the murder of US soldiers are absolutely insane man. And I get putting Gaetz up there with Platner, but not Hegseth.
It really seems like people were following two different trials.
The social media trial of sensationalized rumors and public opinion vs the actual facts.
Here are the lies from the social media court:
- He never had a knife. It was a cleat sharpener.
- He got jumped by multiple people.
- It was about race.
- The jury was completely white.
- He’s going to do 35 years.
Here are the facts from the actual case and trial:
- It was a knife (pictured below)
- He was never jumped based on reports from journalists who actually watched the video in court.
- No one testified that racial slurs were thrown around before, during and after the conflict. I was actually surprised that the defense attorney didn’t play the race card. Anthony was simply from the rival school. It was turned into a racial issue based o. The skin color of the two boys involved.
- Though the jury was mostly White, there were Hispanics and Middle Eastern and Indian jurors
- He will be eligible for parole in 17 years.
@SenatorAndyKim This is a low iq lie, Andy. The state can’t regulate a core federal function, and the state has no legally authority to do so. Basic separation of powers.
Horace Cooper torches Graham Platner on CNN NewsNight:
“This anti-Semitic reprobate should never have been allowed to run. Any decent, credible party would have said, 'No, no.'"
OMG
Jen Lima, a school board member at North Kingstown School Department in Rhode Island shared a letter to Austin Metcalf’s dad blaming him for his son’s murder because he “failed to teach him that black boys have boundaries.”

You must first understand that Democrats do not care about anything they pretend to care about.
Anything is acceptable if it increases their chance of winning an election.
If Platner ever had a Confederate flag tattoo would he ever have been the nominee? Of course not. It would have been unthinkable. Ponder why *that* would be instantly disqualifying for Democrats but why a Nazi SS insignia isn’t. It’s unsettling.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, a group of prominent scientists challenged the prevailing government approach to lockdowns. The Lockdown Dissidents tells the story of researchers who say they were censored when they questioned the public health consensus. https://t.co/DSWzXKE7Lj
