Whose job is it to protect the constitutional rights of groups and individuals when local policing forces aren't up to the task? Militia groups? Seems well within the mandate of the DoJ.

Courts, but that relies on court systems willing to enforce and prosecute police for violations. Above that, probably the DoJ.

Ah, so what we have here is the federal government passing the buck downward to the original violators with the assumption that they have mysteriously learned their lesson already. It's almost like the headlines were largely accurate

Militias are only a good thing if they're full of white people. Taking over federal facilities and hiding under a tarp are optional.

So I'm totally looking forward to the second aerial bombing of Philadelphia as a result of the racist hobgoblin not enforcing civil rights.

Rush was supposedly on a death spiral years ago, and indeed there were a few weeks where he and Hannity had ad breaks made up of PSAs and dead air. But they survived.

After Rush called a woman a slut repeatedly on air, his listeners sure got to learn about heart attacks, whooping cough, drunk driving, etc.

There was a tape of O'Reilly harassing a woman on her answering machine more than a decade ago and it didn't do much. Maybe the advertisers won't blink this time

We have Value added Tax in the UK and I love it, it's the BEST. It was brought in to pay for the Falklands war but it never went away and now it's 20%....if I didn't claim most of mine back thanks to clever accountancy.
