Not at all equivalent to hunter's laptop. The constitution is less and less important now. Expectantly so since the court has its new biblical makeup.

Which casts doubt on the authenticity of your "almost a republican" when it comes to the ballot box. No I'm really a middle of the road common sense voter. But I'll swallow, digest and fully expose GOP talking points and nonsense.

Yes amazing. The GOP marketing machine selling that they work for the little guy who gets preyed upon by Washington elites.

Especially if the most irresponsible one is in the front row.

The attitude of the GOP with regards to the IRS and taxation is akin to treason. Its well off people that warrant investigation the most. That have the largest and most questionable claims. Not the average working Joe. They paint the IRS as the enemy and the funds they generate as funding evil. “Instead of adding 87,000 new agents to weaponize the IRS against small business owners and middle America, this bill will eliminate the need for the department entirely by simplifying the tax code with provisions that work for the American people and encourage growth and innovation,” said Rep. Earl “Buddy” Carter, a Republican from Georgia Since when is the enforcement of the act "weaponizing"?

Another report of the same incident: "Russian sources claimed that the division waited two hours in one location while waiting for 20th Combined Arms Army Commander Major General Sukhrab Akhmedov to arrive and deliver a speech before the division conducted offensive operations.[8] One milblogger suggested that the reported Ukrainian HIMARS strike killed around 100 Russian personnel and wounded another 100," One milblogger even called for the responsible commanders to be shot in front of their formations, whether they are colonel or generals At least they weren't captured by Ukrainian Nazis and used as zombies in slave labor camps.

Sorry, poor phrasing on my part. "Misguided loyalty to his party." How about that? But other conservatives resigned to force his retirement as PM and they were resigning now because of ...disgust with the party. Which is night and day different from the US GOP messaging. America is corrupt, America is broken, Democrats are criminals and must be locked up,WOKE is destroying America, Dems want your guns, Gays and lesbians want your children, etc.

Agree. trump has new election talking points to place the entire department of justice under direct presidential control. He states that its the only way to protect Americans from the deep state. The only way to keep what the deep state is doing to him. From doing it to every single American. What a hero! Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israel PM who has also gone populist. Is also going the same route, or at least trying to. He has similar corruption challenges in the courts. What loyalists will trump put in as FBI director? How many FBI agents would quit as a result? One of trump's first orders in 2017 was to order the termination of 46 Obama appointed prosecutors.

In the UK where politicians still answer the little bits of integrity left. BoJo resigned as MP after resigning as P.M. The report was released today and it plainly stated that he lied to the people and to parliament. His downfall was preceded by the resignation of others within his conservative party. As compared to America under the GOP. Is the decimation of the party in elections the only way to build a backbone of integrity? Or is it going to be allowed to continue to send a message that the state is the enemy. Both a deep and shallow state enemy.

Judge Cannon has 14 days criminal trial experience over four trials. She is a member of the Federalist society "with the aim of challenging liberal or left-wing ideology within elite American law schools and universities. The organization's stated objectives are "checking federal power, protecting individual liberty and interpreting the Constitution according to its original meaning" If you want to be named to the judiciary by republicans you pretty much have to be a member.

You've raised her to adulthood and are explaining to her now your views on Post-Stonewall LGBT Conservationism?

The day starts and there is two lines of jumpers looking for loads to get on one goes to billvon and one to Winsor. Winsor starts listing the loads he has organized, his qualifications, the capabilities of each prospective A/C and its pilots.... Jumpers start to nod off.... billvon's 100 way three point load is landing and he starts to lay out the next jump. Winsor, John and Billvon are all pretty smart but in that aforementioned order the Kenworth air horn goes off at 100 psi. Then it goes down to the Prius beep, beep.

Agree no guarantees. Courts of appeal is the final backstop for judicial bias.. If a rabbit warren trumper lies during jury selection it could be game, set and match.
-
1. Palm Beach county is where the trial will likely take place. So its likely 5 of 12 jurors were or still are trump voters. Of which about 33% are MAGA trumpers for which homicide is acceptable as long as its the Don who does it. 2. The trial judge was appointed by trump and has a history of pro trump rulings. = .......case closed.
-
So you've never read a transcript of a trump speech?
-
It appears as though cracks are starting to appear in the trump crime syndicate. GOP senators, AKA his lieutenants are nowhere to be seen. Mitch McConnell and other senators have not defended trump and "Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah), who twice voted to impeach Trump, said in a statement, “By all appearances, the Justice Department and special counsel have exercised due care, affording Mr. Trump the time and opportunity to avoid charges that would not generally have been afforded to others. " This could be a high noon moment for trump. But of course the MAGA (Make Attorneys Get Attorneys) still controls the nomination process. McConnell himself said that trump will kill election chances as his kiss of death killed midterms.

I wonder is Las Vegas odds makers have started taking bets on how long trump’s former main attorney Evan Corcoran has to live post testimony? Obviously trump will be calling every thing he says to be a lie.He is probably not the smartest to get involved with trump in the first place. He should make sure his will is up to date and wears clean underwear every day.

I'd be against hanging the first lady. But ok. I'm in.

The parallels between US and Italian politics is striking. Here is a quote from a NPR story 2009. ""A culture of illegality has taken hold. We no longer have an ethical role model. We no longer want to follow the rules and respect the law and the constitution. We are in disarray, and we have given up. We have lost sight of our basic civil rights," Patarca says. Berlusconi is fond of saying, "Italians like me the way I am." Through two decades of TV dominance, many analysts say he has, in fact, reshaped Italian culture and values into his own image." Berlusconi was a billionaire media baron who controlled all the major TV stations. Like trump-FOX viewers, Putin and RTV, his base never got news of his corruption.
-
Too bad he never reads anything because it may have given him pause about violating that law. Nah, entitlement always overrides logical decision making for him.
-
Well Italy is a close second. Bunga Bunga Berlusconi was the full equal in corruption, underage sex, prostitutes, etc. He used the legal system just like trump does. He died yesterday, a three time corrupt leader. Italy is going to give him a full state funeral. What a joke. Holding up politicians like Berlusconi and trump in any sort of honorific position is disgusting. Berlusconi, a conservative, polarized voters yet he created a base, like trump that loved him.
-
I dunno Slim has the dirty details on affairs like that.
-
Somebody on CNN I wasn't paying particular attention. trump made the comment that since he won't be convicted, "he won't have to pardon himself".

Its all a part of the dystopian future in the republican mind. Illegal immigrants have stolen all the White women. Either through marriage or some nefarious democrat basement pizza parlor scheme. There is only a few old white men left, armed with AR-15s. Then they wake up before its too late. ...Or so they hope. This type of discourse is as old as America. It’s not that vitriol and personal attacks are unique to the 21st century. "John Adams generally referred to Alexander Hamilton as “bastard brat of a Scotch Pedler.” Thomas Jefferson(Republican) outsourced his attacks on John Adams to a journalist named James Thomson Callender, who wrote that Adams was “a hideous hermaphroditical character which has neither the force and firmness of a man, not the gentleness and sensibility of a woman.”

Republicans have attacked the IRS cutting its funding and labeling it as a enemy of the rich, er the people. They have attacked the justice system. Its time to fund the FBI to investigate more not less politicians. In France its former leader was sentenced for corruption In the UK its former PM, BoJo, Biris Johnson resigned over lying in parliament. In Scotland "Former Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has been arrested by police investigating the finances of the governing Scottish National Party, British media said Sunday. Police Scotland said a 52-year-old woman was detained “as a suspect in connection with the ongoing investigation into the funding and finances of the Scottish National Party.” In America there is talk that even if trump is convicted of all of the crimes he committed. He should not go to prison because the image that a president behind bars is too divisive.
