As already pointed out - the house was declared as a rental. If there had been an intent to defraud, it wouldn’t have been, and the tax amount saved was so trivial as to make the suggestion that there was an intention to deceive ridiculous. It was a mistake on the part of Tlaib’s husband - which the county accepted. No law breaking was claimed. No charges were made.

Back to Donnie's tweet on the percentage of people killed by black people. The real figures are laid out here

https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2015/nov/23/donald-trump/trump-tweet-blacks-white-homicide-victims/

Staying on this, imagine if Ilhan Omar had tweeted that but replaced the word "blacks" with "jews"

notobtuse and co definitely wouldn't be on here claiming it was undeniable proof that Omar is anti-semetic

No siree

Tasfasdf · 23-07-2019 06:14PM

Ilhan Omar is a Racist and anti-semetic. This is the state of the left.

My "known views on feminists"? :P

Talk about scraping the barrel, and oh, that should be 'known views on radical feminists' by the way as I have a lot of time for feminists of old (which you would know had you been paying attention over the years) and also the newer ones too who haven't lost their minds and become far left radicals.

Feminists such as Camille Paglia, Christina Hoff Sommers for example. Speaking of which, I do like what Camille had to say here recently:

If the economy continues strong, Trump will be reelected. The Democrats (my party) have been in chaos since the 2016 election and have no coherent message except Trump hatred. Despite the vast pack of potential candidates, no one yet seems to have the edge. I had high hopes for Kamala Harris, but she missed a huge opportunity to play a moderating, statesmanlike role and has already imprinted an image of herself as a ruthless inquisitor that will make it hard for her to pull voters across party lines.

Screechy Elizabeth Warren has never had a snowball’s chance in hell to appeal beyond upper-middle-class professionals of her glossy stripe. Kirsten Gillibrand is a wobbly mediocrity. Cory Booker has all the gravitas of a cork. Andrew Cuomo is a yapping puppy with a long, muddy bullyboy tail. Both Bernie Sanders (for whom I voted in the 2016 primaries) and Joe Biden (who would have won the election had Obama not cut him off at the knees) are way too old and creaky.

Most Democrats have wildly underestimated Trump from the get-go. I was certainly surprised at how easily he mowed down 17 other candidates in the GOP primaries. He represents widespread popular dissatisfaction with politics as usual. Both major US parties are in turmoil and metamorphosis, as their various factions war and realign. The mainstream media’s nonstop assault on Trump has certainly backfired by cementing his outsider status. He is basically a pragmatic deal-maker, indifferent to ideology. As with Bolsonaro in Brazil, Trump rose because of decades of failure by the political establishment to address urgent systemic problems, including corruption at high levels. Democrats must hammer out their own image and agenda and stop self-destructively insulting half the electorate by treating Trump like Satan

Well then, let's go with the democrat plan. I guess there is no need for Trump to provide his taxes. He doesn't do them and hires the best professionals. Plus he gets audited every year, and he HASN'T GOTTEN CAUGHT. Plus, for good measure let's stop all the investigation/impeachment nonsense. Since there was no collusion, there can't possibly be obstruction. And since he hasn't gotten caught on anything, no need to look into anything. I really like playing this democrat 'no harm - no foul' game.

We’re using the Rashida Tlaib Excuse Clause for the rest of the day. So it doesn’t matter if figures Trump tweeted were wrong or right... those are the numbers he thought were correct. No harm, no foul. Time to forget all about it and move along.

And by the way I think the image is important as it was responding to all the accusations, ad nauseum, that overwhelmingly white cops kill the majority of blacks. Has Omar claimed Blacks have mostly been killed at the hands of Jews?

It’s your side that’s saying that. I’m really beginning to like her. As a politician you can do anything, say anything, legal or not, racist or not, anti-semitic or not, and you need to be forgiven, protected and put on a pedestal. If we apply the same standards to Trump... no recourse, right? And anybody who does attack, we find a way to vilify them.

They've always been scumbags. The great thing about Trump's presidency is these idiots are now exposing themselves for the world to see.

Any chance we could have some moderation in relation to the overuse and improper bandying about of the word "racist"?

Especially when there's no proof to back the assertion?

Omar holds very questionable, highly prejudiced views. And in the past, leftist opponents of racial thinking and conspiracism would have recognised this. Omar has pushed numerous tropes that echo old anti-Semitic views. She infamously argued in 2012 that ‘Israel has hypnotised the world’. She called upon Allah to ‘awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel’. This view of Jewish power as hypnotic, as casting a spell over the non-Jewish world, is a central anti-Semitic trope. It has fuelled virtually every conspiracy theory about Jewish power. The wily Jew, we are told, is behind everything from the execution of Christ right through to the Iraq War of 2003. He’s always there, hypnotising people, tempting them to ‘evil doings’.

The left’s apologism for Omar’s racially charged tropes exposes the limits to its claims to be against hateful prejudice. When it comes to the problem of Muslim anti-Semitism, which is rising in Europe in particular, they turn away. Worse, they actively demonise anyone who talks about it. There is an ironically racist streak to their discomfort with criticising Muslim anti-Semitism: they seem to think Muslims cannot really be prejudiced because… well, why? Because they’re mostly non-white? Because they’re a minority? Because they’re good, innocent people? These are all naive, infantilising views, based on a conception of Muslims as pure and child-like and beyond criticism, which is as racist a view of Muslims as that which says they are a corrupting force in Western nations.
