Meanness Manifest

Dennis Prager,  via  American Greatness:

The sadistic treatment of Paul Manafort illustrates something I have believed since I attended graduate school in the 1970s and saw the behavior of left-wing students: Leftism makes people meaner.

There are kind and mean conservatives and kind and mean liberals. Neither liberalism nor conservatism makes people kinder or meaner. But this is not the case with leftism. With the handful of exceptions that accompany every generalization, leftism makes people meaner, even crueler. More

  1. There are a few State pens Manfort could be in as opposed to a NYC misdemeanor level hell jail in the dregs of an island called Rikers.

    These State prisons, with a nice motorcade are only an hour north of the city, the most, in Orange County. Otisville is a famous one for example.

    IF they do want to go that far he could be detained at Sing Sing, in Westchester, which with the motorcade escort, is about 35 minutes to the city for trial.

    What does this man have on Them I have to wonder with this jack boot Stalin like treatment??

  2. Leftists are myopic, hypocritical and stupid. Of course they’re mean – they need to be mean in order to deter people from calling them out on their bullshit.

  3. Wasn’t he in federal custody? Trump DOJ could tell the NY DA to go pound sand – you can have him when his sentence is finished
    Something else is going on

    Or better yet DOJ could say “We are a sanctuary penal system” and refuse to cooperate

  4. I suppose solitary does have a place in the system, but I’ve long been against it. And now, I’m sort of ashamed to say, I didn’t know some of them were barely tall enough to stand in. I always thought it was mostly the mental abuse I cringed at. (I have heard other things, such as how filthy they are, as well.)

    Ugh.

  5. What pisses me off is that nobody is outraged and putting a stop to it. Same with Dinesh D’Souza, they just let some NYC scumbag leftist judge abuse his authority and nobody does a fucking thing to reign in these pricks. They should be out of work an in custody for an extended taste of their own medicine.

  6. The DA, Cyrus Vance, who is the slime pushing this
    vendetta reminds me strongly of Inspector Jabert in
    “Les Miserables”. A creature of a foul machine, Jabert
    used justice like a whip, and Vance, a Dem machine hack
    in the same mold, is a persecutor, not a prosecutor.
