Never been much of a politics guy over the years....but I find it very interesting that I was told about an infested swamp known as DC needed to be drained so we could at least see the beadie eyes of the critters we were warned about. Never knew of the likes of Schiff, Schumer, etc.,....but I'm glad my eyes were forced open. Lies and lies and lies exist in the above few posts. We've seen the replays and heard the actual words. I'd use some more naval terminology to Express my true feelings here, but it goes over like a turd at a Tidy Bowel convention. Just remember the audience you have here, the education, and the experience that exists, and the agreement, true beliefs, and feelings that exist here in this micro sample of American society with a societal range of about 40 years, and not I'm not a math Major, but I think the turd's out numbered.....not by mob or force, but by good 'ol American Constitutional values.
You have to be kidding me. The folks who believed that Hillary was going to win in a landslide, the folks who believed that the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians, the folks who believed that Mueller was going to frog walk Trump, the folks who believed that Trump was going to be convicted when Impeached by Pelose, call those that laugh at those morons a "cult." You gotta be kidding, but you're not.
Very interesting development. All those Wall Street guys who backed Biden showed their true colors today. Yes sir, the "free" market is as rigged as a WWF smackdown. The market of the little guy Robinhood suddenly showed that it was nothing more than a tool of Hedge Funds. Add to that Schwab and TD Ameritrade (merging and one in the same.) Conspiring to manipulate stocks is a crime but someone has so much money at state that they'd rather face doing time. Fortunately for them they've got the reprise of the Corrupt Clinton Justice Department to bail them out. You know the same ones who let Hillary walk and used FISA warrants to spy on the Trump campaign. The same bastards who keep chanting "no one is above the law" laugh when they whisper "except us."
******** Bill? Here is my post from September 26th: Summing up King Donald of late: But in the lead up to his nomination announcement, Trump has only managed to create more anxiety. His refusal to commit to a peaceful transfer of power raised the specter that America will be transformed into a "banana republic" in November if Democratic nominee Joe Biden wins. The President contradicted his own FBI director by arguing that the election is rife with fraud and rigged against him, even though there is no evidence to support that conspiracy theory.
So by what you are saying is that Trump made a peaceful transition of power..... never lied about or claimed there was election fraud and January 6th in D.C. never happened and furthermore I never said anything here on this board about the likely prospect of those things happening many weeks before the election. As I said..... you guys have changed and live in an alternate universe now as do many Republicans. It's pretty damned scary to me for the prospects of our country moving forward.
Frankly Dave I don't give a damn what you think. You do not listen to anyone, post unfounded garbage that you think we might think. Blah, blah blah.
I want to know what President Biden is going to do about coronavirus deaths, rioting in the streets, New York state underreporting nursing home deaths by 50%, rising gas prices, etc. You got the ball, Joe.
I'll give you a hint George, he's going to blame Trump for every incompetent thing he does. And the Trump hating cult will believe every lie.
At least Biden has and is addressing Covid and has an aggressive plan to get people vaccinated when the previous administration could only run around for two months lying and squawking about false election fraud and inciting the worst riot in our Capitol in our nation's history. And he could only say "we love you" and "you're special". That you guys would defend Trump's actions post election tells me everything I need to know. My worst thoughts about the new direction of the Republican Party are confirmed.
No problem AJ..... you guys have crossed the Marjorie Taylor Greene line of sanity and reason anyway.
And when is that asshole Democratic Congress do anything except running around screaming "Impeach him, impeach him..."
A tale of two prosecutions. You all know the story of Gen. Michael Flynn. Flynn was accused of lying to FBI agents when he was interviewed in the opening days of the Trump administration. At the time the agents were not investigating any crime. Notes of one of the agents made before the interview state "what is our purpose, to arrest him or get him fired?" They succeeded in both. At one point early on the agents wanted to close their investigation with no legal action but the investigation continued encouraged by, who else, Peter Strzok and Lisa Paige. When Flynn hired a new attorney, replacing a firm William Holder worked for, the actions of the FBI came to light. The Justice Department faced with obvious entrapment attempted to dismiss the case. Enter judge Emmett Sullivan who in an unprecedented move refused the government's request. As you know Flynn was eventually pardoned by President Trump. Case two, Kevin Clinesmith. Clinesmith was an attorney in the FBI. His job was to obtain warrants allowing the FBI to legally violate the Constitutional rights of Americans on the pretext of national security. Clinesmith prepared one of the applications for a FISA warrant for Carter Paige a low level member of the Trump Campaign. Clinesmith doctored an email which would have been helpful to Paige in its original form and thus lied to the FISA court. For submitting a perjured affidavit and doctoring evidence resulting a citizens Constitutional rights being violated, Clinesmith received a sentence of ...one year's probation. Had he been given jail time, as he should have, Clinesmith would probably tried to cut a deal naming those who put him up to lying but Judge James Boesberg took care of that problem. The next time you hear Pelosi or Schumer tell you "No one is above the law." Try not to throw up.
