He lied?

Maybe he can replace Sarah Huckabee later this year when she quits.

How nice. It's still just your opinion

He lied?....

Suppose he will return the "Go fund me money"? Those folks certainly believed he had the goods on Trump.

So conservatives believe you need a wall on the southern border, but a city is completely secure without one?

Worse yet, there are not even checkpoints of any kind into Chicago and we actually have border security on the southern border and patrols.

Must be conservative logic.

What does a wall on the southern border have to do with gun violence in Chicago?

As to "logic," liberals keep calling for more and more gun laws. As if having a gun law means a bad guy will just not shoot someone. Well, in Chicago they have those laws! Why are they not working?

Back to the wall. Why do other cities not have the same problem then? If it was just about needing a wall and gun checkpoints, then other large cities would logically have a similar rate of violence and murder. But they do not, Chicago is in the lead. So not having a wall is not the issue. Nor are "nearby guns" the issue.

The issue is Chicago itself. But again why the violence as liberals have made all the gun laws there they pleased?

Gamer-loser, it's really just one word.

They live in a fantasy world and when reality hits them, they take it hard.

Its like that line from Eleemosynary about the little girl, Echo, who won a Spelling Bee:: "I thought there was an Adult division".

"A federal court struck down North Carolina’s congressional map Monday, calling it an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander and throwing the state’s House elections into uncertainty just 10 weeks before Election Day."

In Michigan, there will most likely be a ballot proposal to take redistricting out of the hands of the legislators and create an independent commission to do the work.

GENEVA — Experts from scores of countries are meeting to discuss ways to define and deal with "killer robots" — futuristic weapons systems that could conduct war without human intervention.

The weeklong gathering that opened Monday is the second at U.N. offices in Geneva this year to focus on such lethal autonomous weapons systems and to explore possibilities for regulating them, among other issues.

In theory, fully autonomous, computer-controlled weapons don't exist yet, U.N. officials say. The debate is still in its infancy, and the experts have at times grappled with basic definitions. The United States has argued that it's premature to establish a definition of such systems, much less regulate them.

With no necessary chemical or radiation identification, it's pretty easy to hide whatever you're building unlike the other two weapon categories.
