If Biden or any of his cabinet members had a conflict of interest as glaring as Elaine Chao's, who owned $250,000 worth of stock in the nation's largest producer of road construction aggregates including crushed stone, sand, gravel, asphalt and ready-mixed concrete, while she was the Secretary of Transportation? Then yes, I would be concerned and I would expect him to be excoriated for it by the press and by his Republican critics. That is absolutely unethical and it defies a coherent defense.

You are joking right? $250k is pennies my man.

Please tell me why I should tolerate the racist Proud Boys. I'll wait. It's very telling how easily triggered you get when someone criticizes an overtly racist group.

I have no idea who the proud boys are. I only heard the name a couple of days ago, and thought they were black.

EVERY DEMOCRATIC 2020 FRONT RUNNER SUPPORTS BILL FORCING MALE ATHLETES INTO GIRLS’ SPORTS

Every Democratic presidential candidate polling above 1% supports a bill that would force schools to include male athletes who identify as transgender girls on female sports teams.

The Equality Act, which passed the House in May with unanimous Democratic support, amends the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to make “sexual orientation and gender identity” protected characteristics under federal anti-discrimination law.


The bill would force public schools to expand female athletic teams to include biological males who identify as transgender girls, as both critics and supporters of the bill have acknowledged. The bill comes as male athletes have racked up victories in female sports.


With Republicans controlling both the White House and the Senate, the Equality Act has little to no chance of becoming law before the next election — but Democratic presidential candidates have pledged to make the bill a priority if they win in 2020.

FBI Probing Antifa Plot to Buy Guns from Mexican Cartel, 'stage an Armed Rebellion at the border'

The FBI is investigating a supposed radical far-left Antifa plot to “stage an armed rebellion” and “disrupt U.S. law enforcement and military security operations at the US/Mexican border.”

Word of the probe comes after years of the FBI putting greater emphasis on the threat of Antifa activities, with bureau Director Christopher Wray saying the agency is looking into the ideology and individuals associated with the movement.

But according to a December FBI document obtained by the San Diego Union-Tribune, the agency is now tackling actual alleged plots of possible criminal activities that would affect U.S. homeland security.

The FBI report, which wasn’t posted online because the matter is still active, alleged that the anti-fascist activists were looking into buying firearms from a “Mexico-based cartel associate known as Cobra Commander” that would be used to “stage an armed rebellion at the border.”

If the best defense you have, is that it's relatively speaking, not much money? That is not a defense at all. If it's not much money, all the more reason that she should have sold her stock in Vulcan, prior to accepting a cabinet position, where she would have influence over what government contracts that Vulcan was able to secure. There is no defense for this... especially so, in not disclosing her stock holding during her Senate confirmation hearing. Her husband, the Senate Majority Leader, does not come away from this looking like he cares anything about ethics either.
