    I does nothing at all to invalidate what I posted. There are of course white nationalists in every part of the country but the distribution of them is by no means uniform. The relative population of white nationalists (white supremacists if you prefer) is significantly greater in the deep south and in pockets of rural America.

    And there it is. The race card! Racists support Sessions!

    And racists are products of the poor school system in the South (not in the North, though).

    I believe you, and that statement is consistent with your views. This does not mean necessarily. however, that you are a white supremacists or a white nationalists, it simply increases the odds somewhat.

  4. Sessions lied under oath , again.


    BUSTED: Key parts of Sessions’ testimony were just contradicted by this oil lobbyist

    An American lobbyist who has worked on behalf of Russian interests has contradicted a key part of Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ Senate testimony this week.

    The Guardian reports that Richard Burt, who served as ambassador to Germany during the Reagan administration and who has lobbied on behalf of a pipeline company that’s now controlled by Russian state-owned energy conglomerate Gazprom, has admitted to attending two dinners organized by Sessions last year during the height of the 2016 presidential campaign.

    “I did attend two dinners with groups of former Republican foreign policy officials and Senator Sessions,” Burt told the Guardian.

    This is notable, writes the Guardian, because “Sessions testified under oath on Tuesday that he did not believe he had any contacts with lobbyists working for Russian interests over the course of Trump’s campaign.”

    Additionally, Burt last year reportedly had input into a key foreign policy speech that Trump delivered at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington D.C. — which was where intelligence officials suspect Sessions might have had a third undisclosed meeting with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak.

    News of Burt’s attendance at dinners organized by Sessions was first reported last October by Politico, although this report didn’t gain significant traction until this week when Sessions testified that he didn’t recall any contacts with lobbyists who worked on behalf of Russian interests last year.

    I love how Sessions is "BUSTED" based on a foreign newspaper's account of someone who no one has ever heard of making a comment that he attended a dinner organized by Sessions, and since he has lobbied on behalf of a pipeline company that is now controlled by Gazprom, that means Sessions lied.

    And you people wonder why the news isn't trusted. I'm sure a congressional inquiry will immediately be launched about this, and it will go, precisely, nowhere.

    Which news organization posted this gem? I mean, since we cannot find any links in your post.

    You fit in perfectly in the deep south. That is why you will never leave.

    Spite has nothing to do with what's is going on. We have a potentially dangerous, and possibly criminal liar with a serious personality disorder as our President. Something must be done. Something is being done. But it will take time because we are not a banana republic, not yet anyway. The law must be followed.
