Still waiting to see if it is possible for you to post a single thing without turning it into an anti-Trump rant.
Not that interested, more curious in a nothing-better-to-do kind of way.
I think it would be impossible to talk about the concessions to African Americans who have broken the law without acknowledging First Act. The President has opened the Genie's bottle. Opened the door to lawlessness. These people are just looking to expand their newfound freedoms under Trump.
Exclusive: Violent criminals and sex offenders released early due to 'First Step Act' legislation
Speaking on "Tucker Carlson Tonight," Louisiana Republican John Sen. Kennedy, who was one of a handful of lawmakers to oppose the bill, said the numbers were predictable.
"Good intentions sometimes have nothing to do with actual consequences," Kennedy told Carlson. "We were told that this would only allow low-level, nonviolent criminals to go free. I didn't believe it, and I didn't believe it because I read the bill. And now we find out that in the first traunch of prisoners let free, 500 committed weapons or explosive crimes, 250 committed sex crimes, I think there were 60 or 70 that were guilty of homicide or aggravated assault. And those are not low-level, nonviolent criminals."
Kennedy went on to describe the leadup to the bill as a "complete lie." He said he had offered an amendment that would have required victims to be notified about inmates' release, but that it was vetoed.
