    Diversity, equity and inclusion on full display here
  • So sick of all this shit! Committee hearings and more committee meetings and nothing ever happens
  • All the women were against solitary because they FEEL it is wrong. They then lack the ability to be objective and should not be involved in such decisions.

    The DEI hires…”Duh, I dunno…”

    The Texan is a honest man and does not hedge his answers. I would vote for him.
  • Love my Mr. Kennedy! He is so intelligent and wise! Wish we could clone him! ❤

    Besides the sheriff, how many of these goobers have worked in a jail?
  • @gmel4967
    Instead of solitary, call it a safe space. Problem solved.

    The first two are as qualified as a beautician. Fire them immediately.

    Some criminals are too dangerous to be locked up with the other criminals.

  • @ArmyBrat1974
    Not a dumb question, just asking people (with the exception of the sheriff), who have no practical experience...
  • Refusal to answer a question during a senate hearing should land you in jail, especially if your pay depends on tax payer money.

    Little Dick Durban would be the first person to put the former president into solitary confinement and throw away the key.
