That's a beautiful concept in principle.

A brave CNN insider came to Project Veritas to expose anti-Trump bias at the cable giant. Cary Poarch, who works at CNN’s Washington D.C. Bureau, tells Project Veritas “I decided to wear a hidden camera…to expose the bias running rampant” at the network. Poarch documented CNN’s bias for months; recording undercover footage of numerous long-term employees, some of which talk about Jeff Zucker’s anti-Trump agenda. In the video are Nick Neville, Christian Sierra, Hiram Gonzalez, David Chalian, and Mike Brevna. These employee’s positions range from media coordinator to high-ranking executives. I decided to secretly record the 9:00am rundown call meetings with senior management and executives, says Poarch. In the recordings, Zucker details his expectations for CNN’s coverage and very matter-of-factly states “impeachment is the story.”

We should expect derpocrats to reward illegal immigrants and punish lawful gun owners, just as we should expect derpublicans to do precisely the oppoosite.

Honestly, the things that you claim to find confusing astonish me. It's like you're walking around wearing 1950s-tinted-glasses.

Give yourself freely and willingly to Ba'al the Soul Eater, and you will know the true meaning of morality.

Wait...but the opposite is to..........

punish illegal immigrants and reward lawful gun owners.

So...punish illegal activity, and reward legal activity? Isn't that a good thing?

Well, I guess "reward lawful gun owners" is being a tad generous.

But no, punishing illegal activity is not a good thing if the person doing the illegality is a minority or otherwise disadvantaged, because straight white men wrote the laws that they are allegedly violating.

I am not being sarcastic, with the caveat of an understanding of the mindset of the present-day social justice system.

Is it right? No. But it is the reality in which we live.

Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan had a simple response to President Trump’s Oct. 9 letter warning him against taking action along the Syrian border: He threw it “in the bin.”

Sources close to Erdogan confirmed to the BBC Thursday that the Turkish strongman “thoroughly rejected” the letter in which Trump threatened to “[destroy] the Turkish economy” if he took military action in Syria following his announcement several days earlier to withdraw all U.S. troops from the northeast of Syria.

meanwhile:

(K.R.) BREAKING NEWS: TURKEY AGREES TO CEASEFIRE IN SYRIA

American and Turkish diplomats have agreed to a cease fire agreement in Syria. Kurdish YPG forces will be allowed 5 days to safely pull back from a 20 mile exclusion zone from the Turkish border. After that time, Turkey agrees to a permanent cease fire, with no further hostilities.

In return, the U.S. has agreed to remove the economic sanctions it placed on Turkey this past Monday.

The announcement was made by Vice President Pence and Secretary of State Pompeo in Ankara, Turkey.

Developing story...
