The government is good at one thing. It knows how to break your legs, and then hand you a crutch and say, "See if it weren't for the government, you wouldn't be able to walk".

Wow. Proponents of the ICE taser gloves are openly saying that one reason they love the gloves is that they doesn’t leave any marks or proof that they were used, making it harder for people to sue when they’re shocked excessively.

Bill Cassidy did not want to personally risk anything for the truth. So he needed a rationalization in his own mind to vote yes for RFK. Cassidy is the only one being untruthful…to himself. Until these guys have the awareness to understand their own motivations, this Mickey Mouse show will never end

BILL CASSIDY: If you want to tell me that somebody didn't tell me the truth, and I should've seen in the future they were not gonna tell the truth, you can say, 'Bill you should've seen into the future'
