Dinesh D'Souza Under Fire After Retweeting Posts With #BurnTheJews and #BringBackSlavery Hashtags
Source: Law & Crime
A conservative author and filmmaker recently pardoned by President Donald Trump is under fire after retweeting a Twitter post with the hashtag #burnthejews.
Dinesh DSouza pleaded guilty to using a straw donor in order to make an illegal campaign contribution to a U.S. Senate race in 2012. In 2014, DSouza entered his plea and was eventually sentenced to five years probation, eight months in a halfway house and a $30,000 fine. On May 31 of this year, President Trump issued a pardon, saying DSouza was treated very unfairly by our government.
Fast forward one month. DSouza is currently promoting a new film which compares Trump to Abraham Lincoln. In service of that self-promotion, DSouza retweeted a Twitter post by user @RedManDan84. Twitter subsequently suspended that account, but not before multiple users made screenshots of DSouzas retweet:

Of course, the other nazis didn't make distinctions when eliminating people, based on who converted to the 'right' religion.

He can call himself whatever he wants, but it means nothing.
Unlike Evangelical assholes, I've actually read the Bible at least a couple of times. I don't recall in the Gospels where Jesus said "Burn the Jews". Maybe it was in The Sermon on the Mount, and I missed it.

(5,914 posts)As you'll recall, he had to quit after only two years because he showed up at a conference with "his new fiancee" while still married to his wife.
Blatant hypocrite religious types abound, and always have. Even Jesus had no patience for them.

I think that once pardoned the perp can't refuse to testify on its misdeeds. But does this extend to all future misdeeds?
Once the dump pardons itself, is he covered in a cloak (cloaca) of immunity - free to kill anybody he wants?
Where are our Founders when we want them to answer these questions? A few scraps of paper that need to be interpreted by a partisan congress or a politicized SCOTUS?

(4,341 posts)I am just wondering...he is not white, I would like to see him at a bar in the south...it really doesn't make sense.
Lets make it clear, that even if he was white, that vitriol has no place anywhere, it is disgusting, but I am always baffled by people like him who for some unknown reason become republican when republicans only want them for a while, just like a tool, when its convenient, then he will be shoved to the side as republicans have in the past, repeatedly, with non-whites who supported them, like a pair of shoes, and the moment they look old, in the garbage they go.
