“Public figures confused about what ‘pivate citizen’ means”
there I fixed the headline
don’t let him off as confused, he’s directly lying and obfuscating the truth.
_“speaker Johnson is a festering pile of diarrhea”
Is all I read.
Guy defends the pedo that got him his job. What’s new with the Republican party?
Trump should be in prison now because he still is a ‘normal citizen’.
He would if the justice department weren’t a bunch of wimps and if the judges weren’t bought and paid for.
Says the guy watching pornos with his son
Now that’s just some good ol’ fashioned father son bonding time down in ol’ Louisiana
Did I miss something? Are private citizens who rape children immune to prosecution?
This is America.
He almost turns me into a believer because it seems the only place these fuckers might face any consequences would be hell itself.
You’re not a “private citizen” when you’re supposed to be a public servant. Johnson’s name is appropriate, he’s a total dick.
They wouldn’t show restraint for a Democrat. These are empty words
They literally showed pictures of hunter bidens Wang on Cspan and he was a private citizen. So spare me the theater.
Yeah, pretty sure the report about Al Franken still got released despite him resigning months earlier.
Once again the wee widdle wanker warps reality for his Masters
Never believe that [fascists] are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The [fascists] have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
Ok so how to handle it then
Justice dies in silence.
In the future, I highly recommend sourcing to Wikiquote instead. It’s a sister project of Wikipedia which sources its quotes so they can be independently verified, whereas Goodreads just operates on an ad populum approach of upvotes. It also for this reason tends to be more robust to error, and many more prominent figures have specific sections both for popular quotes that are known to be misattributed and for ones that are dubious but not currently falsifiable.
But he wasn’t a “private citizen” when he did the things you investigated, so release the fucking report.
Johnson: No.
This motherfucker has covered up some shit in his life. This is not far from the pastor telling the pedo he smoothed things over with the victims family and if we pray about it everything will be ok.
Remember, this is the same guy who still claims he doesn’t have a bank account. By my mind that means he’s lied on every disclosure and is likely hiding more than just a few bank accounts and investments.
This definition of private citizen seems to extend to all human beings… so why do we even do ethics reports.
trump is a ‘private citizen’. he should be in prison.
SCOTUS: we stopped caring about being consistent
SCOTUS: Do you understand how dumb “conservatives” are?? They’ll vote to make things worse for themselves, because they hate brown people.
When did they start?
OHHHHHH!!!
AIRHORNS!!!
Can someone just fucking leak it already
Leak it…
How this doesn’t just happen is beyond me. One would think one of the MANY staffers with access to this document would have leaked it by now.
People don’t wanna lose their jobs or end up in jail.l
