    He’s in good company. George Washington would send his slaves over state lines so they couldn’t be freed by laws the duration of in the north.

        So I forget the state, but where Washington had slaves passed a law that slaves who are residents for a set amount of years would be freed.

        But to get around the law, he’d bring his slaves to another state and reset the timer on their freedom.

        I’ll link the specific details in about two hours

          It was Pennsylvania, back when Philly was the capital. I heard about this on the Dollop podcast episode on Ona Judge, who escaped Washington during one of these trips to reset the freedom clock. The episode was based on this book:

    There were actually two edits.

    Wisconsin radio station admits it edited Biden interview at request of campaign

    Specifically a line from the interview “… and in addition to that, I have more Blacks in my administration than any other president, all other presidents combined, and in major positions, Cabinet positions,” was removed.

    A piece of dialogue referencing Donald Trump’s call for the death penalty for the Central Park Five, “I don’t know if they even call for their hanging or not, but he—but they said […] convicted of murder,” was also removed.

    The first site I checked had an obvious mistake but I guess they were in an SEO hurry. God, does the media suck.

    I want to slap all the liberals who are trying to salvage this by mentioning nonstop that Trump is a pedophile associated with Epstein. If Biden doesn’t have the gumption to call Trump a pedophile personally because he thinks it’s crass or unbecoming, their screams will just fade into the ether rather than take hold with the larger voter base. Blame your shit candidate for why the most effective attacks against Trump have no salience.
