Biden like most presidents surrounds himself with smart advisors. He listens to them as did Obama and others before him. The echo chamber of trump keeps his followers an a very narrow ignorant path. Its why facts matter so little to them. Trump also had the very nasty habit of parroting the opinion of the last person who gave one to him.

Why get angry at a Zebra? It can't change its stripes. Just like Brent can't understand math.

Rudy is following in the footsteps of his master, trump. Its all just a sham so he can get fundraising for his legal defense fund. He'll likely name Hunter and Hillary next. After sufficient funds have been raised he'll drop it all.

I'm surprised that republicans aren't trying to get in on those subsidies using shell companies.

Thanks for your diligence. I wonder if Brent reports his DZ income to the IRS using the same math as trump does? Or the same as that in SC?

It seems as though trump was forgotten from inclusion on the list of the Forbes 400 richest people.

All well selling the agenda of the house to the Saudi's and Russia. Perhaps arranging a low cost trip for all house members to Saudi Arabia for which he got for free courtesy MBS.

Stupid breeds stupid.

The DOJ judiciary will do that. His rants of disrespect for the justice system is not unnoticed by judges. Some of them may be lackeys for god and the conservative right. But most abhor criminals especially if they deserve a smack-down. His own USSC may deliver the final word as to if this trial was political and corrupt. To trump's dismay.

Don't you think that that would make trump a martyr for his followers? ...Yeah... so what!

John Kelly, Mark Milley and Jim Mattis all thought that they could control or steer trump towards integrity, towards righteousness. All failed and if these three men couldn't do it prison sure won't either.

Paying higher gas prices to save the environment goes to the very core of conservatives existence. The current price for gas in Finland in US $ per US gallon is $7.76, France the same, Greece $7.99, The Netherlands $8.36 All of Europe is twice what the price is in the US. Where conservatives feel its a birthright to have cheap gas and say F*&k the rest of the world. The immigrants who are fleeing central America because farming has gone for s*&t. Well they should be shot at the border. Looming climate challenges are exacerbating the region’s struggles with poverty and insecurity, leaving many with no choice but to migrate.

In feudal Japan the samurai had the belief that bows and muskets where not as honorable a way to kill or be killed because with a sword you could feel your enemy die. To die with honor. In WW 1 it was considered dishonorable to kill enemy pilots who had to bail out and who were under parachute. Now thanks to technology honor is back. Because you can see the whites of their eyes as you fly your FPV drone right into the face of your enemy. About twenty years ago Israel began to recognize the importance of drones. Shortly thereafter they dropped an order for US Apache gunships which were the tank killing warriors of the west. Drones became the answer more and more. Fast forward to 2020 and the Azerbaijani forces used drones as a central weapon to control the air and destroy tanks in their victory over Nagorno-Karabakh. Usually called the second war of this conflict. A good writeup by" Israel Defense Forces Tactical Command College" entitled Drones in the Nagorno-Karabakh War: Analyzing the Data For the last three years the US department of defense has run twice yearly war games for drones. https://www.defensenews.com/digital-show-dailies/ausa/2020/10/12/us-army-solidifies-requirements-to-counter-small-drones/ Jamming, microwaves to destroy electronics, lasers, close range kinetic kill( think mini-gun with radar) and close in APS on vehicles are all currently in the mix to counter drones. All cost big $$. IMO its only a matter of time till terrorists use commercial civilian drones to take out airliners. Bypassing airport security by flying right over it.Or politicians who don't have depleted uranium armor around them. AFAIK the presidential limo won't stop a RPG. Isn't 2023 a great year to be alive?

That type of nonsense is normal now for the GOP. Windmills killing whales one day. Irrigation systems to keep the forests from burning the next. In a weekend speech trump stated that all shoplifters should be shot and his crowd cheered That would be less than a week after he himself was convicted of fraud. Earlier trump stated that retiring hero Mark Milley, retiring from the chair of joint chiefs of staff was a traitor. That he committed a treasonous act that would have once warranted death. No word about trump's treason on January 6th and if it warrants a death penalty. Normalcy in America, all the better to keep Slim, Brent , et al coming back to donate and vote for the GOP.

Perhaps some day AI will be able to put republicans on an ignore list. I don't get FOX but their stupidity still taints everything.

Brent learned this from Slim and they use it because it works.

Oh! Brent! Truth will set your free.

OK we need a final decision on this issue. How far back in time do republicans really want to go back?....Brent will know. Brent doesn't know much but he knows about how backward republicans think!

This is a story on it from an Indian "news" perspective. Six Men In Two Cars Involved In Killing Terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar In Canada, Police Arrived Late And Botched Probe: Report "Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a designated terrorist who headed the Khalistan Tiger Force (KTF), also a designated terrorist organisation. India has rubbished Trudeau's claim and has termed Canada a 'safe haven' for terrorism directed at India. ...There were at least six men and two vehicles involved in a "coordinated" attack on Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar, according to The Washington Post. Attackers came in one vehicle and escaped from the area in another vehicle, ...The local Sikh leaders told The Post that 40-50 bullets were fired at Nijjar. The report says 34 hit the terrorist who died on the scene. " Needless to say the killing was organized and designed to ensure nobody was going to put him back together in a hospital.

Republicans are not stupid. They want the clock back to the late sixties when the world and word of old white men was gospel. Prior to the influx of Vietnamese and Mexican immigration. "Fair" elections are a cancer on America because liberals, welfare recipients and illegals plug the voteing machines with worthless votes. What republicans are is a group of people who see democracy and the constitution as pieces of paper. To be used for political purpose not ideals. Then to be flushed down the toilet like classified documents.

Yep. As compared to conservatives who only want to move backwards. To about 1965.

When trump piles up $6.7 trillion of debt in only four years thats called buying your way out of recession.

No but Canada has let Nazi's in and even invited them to the parliament!

News media just doesn't have the whole story. The same day I posted this thread the NYT has a story basically saying that Nijjar was an angel loved by all. I can't be bothered to find it but the NYT usually has well sourced stories. Obviously he had some fanboys as a religious/political leader. With 950k new immigrants last year alone the rubber (admitted) stamp may be overused.

No but presumably whoever was in charge or working on his reapplication at immigration Canada knew all that. Eventually he did get citizenship. Several stories have reported that for Sikhs in India separating from India is a non-issue. Nobody in India seems to be actively promoting it. Supposedly only Canadian ones. But if thats the case why did India decide to send a couple agents to cancel his activities? If what he was doing was a worthless cause why bother? There seems to be some phone intercepts via Americans at the Indian consulate in Canada. The RCMP warned him that someone was actively trying to kill him shortly before he was killed.
