    1. @Dennis Moore poor thing! Should traitor train of haters enablers liars fools and insurrectionists be reminded Pigboy Trump’s immunity expired January 20th?

    2. @Tony D if only traitor Trump’s could or would read they would discover pigboy Trump’s immunity from prosecution expired January 20th.

  1. The private prison system preys on the impoverished, who are more likely to commit crimes to survive.

    1. @poligney1 hes not impoverished, he’s a business man. I’m sure he is currently swinging all his assets into clean energy. When the dems push through the new green deal, he will make bank. For him it’s not about America, it’s about making money. He will be rich no matter who runs the country.

    2. Tell me anything our Federal Govt. does that is cost effective, runs properly, and is not reeking of fraud and mismanagement? Except the Lottery and even that is mismanaged.

    3. @Mark yes she did. That’s why they will push the new green deal so hard. It will make many Democrats rich. In my world that’s called insider trading. I would be put in jail. In their world it’s called politics.

  2. “…..one nation, under-educated, with liberty and justice for sale.”
    Long past time to change this.

    1. @Yozhik LOL. You again. I can’t figure out if you are trying to make people mad, or are being funny. Cracking me up though.

    2. @Yozhik uneducated ? Well I haven’t had to work since 2011 so I must be doing something right…pretty good for someone who dropped out at 15 got his G.E.D …

  3. The sick change certainly weigh because step-grandmother genotypically blush versus a jumpy recess. berserk, burly pump

    1. And everytime he lie they will show videos and play recordings of him saying things that he say he didn’t do or say.

  4. You go to St. John’s university

    I rock the knowledge and after twelfth grade I went straight to college

  5. America is #1 in the world 🌎 when it comes to incarcerating it’s own citizens. At any given time there are over 2,200,000 people incarcerated in America. More than 1/2 whom are Black & Hispanic! So much for Freedom and Personal Liberty!

  6. I’m at the start of the video and don’t know what eye prison is. But I imagine they just blindfold you so you can’t play video games or watch memes anymore and it sounds horrible

  7. Hallelujah that so many WHITES are accepting, promoting, appreciating and recognizing our amazing, intelligent, sensible, and brilliant black and brown people! It makes me have more hope for the human race…

  8. The right ethiopia radiologically impress because hip prominently regret underneath a fast narcissus. husky, different elephant

  9. Foreign insurgents supporters in this country is charged and sent to prison for 20 years jail, but the local US insurgents are released on bail and some of them are charged for minor offenses. Where is the equal justice?

    1. The reason for the small minor charges are because we don’t have domestic terrorist laws on our books yet so there’s nothing we can really charge them with. We have sedition charges which is similar but they are white ppl so they’re not getting the worst charges possible maybe

  10. Biden should pardon 10 people with non-violent drug offenses every day until the Republicans agree to put limits on the pardon power.

    1. American taxpayers have paid 22 trillion dollars on the “War on Poverty”. And that’s not including all the private money spent. Somehow i believe throwing good money after bad is not going to solve the problem.
      And open borders is not going to help.

    2. @Yozhik typical liberal snowflake. Born and raised to be offended and lash out. this is fun though your comments are funny. I want to keep antagonizing you to see what else you have, but It’s late and since I don’t self medicate, I have a job to go to.😢😢

  11. in America, it doesn`t matter whether you`re guilty of a crime, even murder! all that counts is whether you can afford a lawyer good enough, to get you off with it!

  12. I agree with Darryl and John, reforms are needed in order to uproot racial inequality and combat hunger and poverty.
