    Reparations, welfare, and UBI are all handouts -- unearned income. So that's why I characterize them as bribes.

    Granted, you could also say that lobbyism is legalized bribery as well.

    So giving people money one way or another is either bribery or it isn't.
    Your view of this is not valid because the underlying result is the same.
    They both gain votes from those people who receive the benefit(s).

    Agent Zero, if I had a nickel for every indictment you didn't have, I'd have one nickel.

    Can you not read or are you trying to split hairs.
    Officials allege the women were paid to target older voters on the city’s north side “in a scheme to generate a large number of mail ballots and then harvest those ballots for specific candidates in 2016.”

    The notice did not specify which candidates the suspects were allegedly paid to support, but it noted that Sanchez and others marked down-ballot candidates “without the voter’s knowledge or consent.”

    AG officials have said these charges “are in connection with the 2016 Democratic primary, but the case has connections with the 2015 city council election.”


    So these 4 were paid to use other peoples mail in ballots to vote for people without the consent of the actual voter. THEY WERE PAID TO VOTE

    You are right.
    At some other point in time i might argue your point, but not any more.
    After I saw all five of them parrot back what they were told to say on " The Five " about the Epstein hit, I could easily tell they were being controlled. Just like the coroner was told exactly what to say and how to say it.
    Now 100% of news channels are "for entertainment purposes only".
    You are right.

    Thanks for the campaign help......LOL
    The hard left's claim that Trump has to pay people to show up to rallies is retarded on its face. Americans laugh at them.

    So you don't see a difference between letting people keep more of what they earn vs. just giving people handouts?

    I guess that explains why you're a liberal.
