  1. I say go ahead and impeach. With no evidence Republicans will actually come off as bigger fools than they already are.
  2. i.e. I covered your statement when I said “no evidence”.
  3. Naturally. Reason and sensibility have no place here.
  4. [Hidden Content] Brian Kilmead led Petro Poroshenko, the Ukrainian president who fired Shokin, right to a demolition of the “Biden bribed Shokin to help Hunter” conspiracy theory. I don’t think Kilmead got the answers he anticipated. The look on his face is priceless. No evidence. The man who fired the crook said there was no quid pro quo. Shokin was more crooked than the executives at Burisma he was investigating. Biden was practicing diplomacy. A totally alien concept to MAGA heads. Investigate all you won’t. The clown car is headed for the cliff. Can’t wait to hear the spin.
  5. Straight out of Trump’s playbook. Funny how the thing people cry loudest about is the the thing called out that they do themselves.
  6. I’m tellin’ ya’ll, he’s going down. Jeffrey Clark turns on him in Georgia, chief assistant Molly Michael slams him in documents case. You think Rudy or Meadows is going down for the Clown? The parade is just beginning, and it ain’t stopping until it winds up at a federal pen somewhere with the Orange Man filing in wearing an orange suit.
  7. That’s politics 101, dude. Both sides do the same thing. Try to find dirt, smear it on, and see how it goes. You think Republicans don’t do the same thing, you’re way naive. I don’t condone it personally, but that’s how it works.
  8. Not true, BS. This liberal Democrat ain’t scared to touch it. Gateway Pundit is fake news. They had no quotes from anyone on the scene involved with the ordeal. The Fox News reporter talked to some immigrants in line, and made his own assumptions of FOX News footage. Arrests are down dramatically since Commandante Abbot’s border mania brought local criticism of the DPS treatment of immigrants and families. Immigration is a problem, but stop making it sound existential. We have been a country of immigrants for 234 years.
  9. What about the US hostages being released in return for life to in the sanction? Screw ‘em?
  10. Did you bother to read the article? It’s not our money they’re getting. It’s their own money that has been subject to sanction. I actually read the Reuters article this one drew on.
  11. Can you read? That’s not what I said.
  12. We fought in Korea and Vietnam against communism. It didn’t even exist until after WWI. Communist Russia was an ally in WWII. Wars since Vietnam have been against religious extremists or authoritarian dictators. 36,000 in Korea, 58,000 In Vietnam. Tragic, every one, but well short of “hundreds of thousands”. These particular radicals are not fomenting revolution. They’re exercising their First Amendment rights. Remember “Jews will not replace us.”? Nazi revolutionists are okay, I guess. Many people defended their right to free speech. Quit using half truths as fact.
  13. But he overcame his prejudice and did the right thing. Trump has no self awareness. Only self aggrandizement.
  14. Glad she got attacked? That’s mighty Christian of you. Can you explain how defunding the FBI is any different?
  15. I’ll come closer to agreeing with you on Obama and Biden in that statement than I ever will Trump. He uses the military to make himself look patriotic. No one who understands the symbolism of it would ever hump an American flag displayed on a stage where he’s speaking.
  16. I screwed up and submitted before finished. Go to the top of page three to read my full reply if you want.
  17. I know the history. A Democratic President’s signature is on the bill. The Voting Rights Act passed by a 333-85 vote in the House. Democrats 222-61 (18% against), Republicans 112-24 (20% against). Therefore it passed without the need of any Republican votes. The Civil Rights Act passed the house August 3, 1965. Democrats 217-64 (30% against) Republicans 111-20 (18% against). Only 1 Republican vote needed to pass. In the Senate on August 4, 1965 the vote was 79-18. Democrats 49-17, Republicans 30-1. Only two Republican votes needed to pass. Spin it ever how it want. Those are the facts. Not all democrats were from the south. Nixon knew how pissed the Dixiecrats were, hence the southern strategy to move in and get the southern racist vote. Like I said, it’s all about the votes for any party. Learn your history.
  18. I know the history. A Democratic President’s signature is on the bills. The Voting Rights Act passed July 9, 1965 by a 333-85 vote. Democrats 221-61 (18% against), Republicans 112-24 (20% against). Therefore, it passed without needing any Republican votes. The Voting Rights Act passed the house August 9, 1965 by a vote of 328-74. Democrats
  19. You’re really going to quote Stephen Miller and Kari Lake to bolster an argument?
  20. Every political party in the history of our country has one thing in mind - votes. It’s a democratic system. No votes, no power. You can crow about your sanctimonious claim of Republican purity when it comes to race. Ever hear of the southern strategy? Also, what party was in control of the house, senate, and presidency when the civil rights legislation was passed. If you don’t know, it was Democrats. Now, if we’re such a party of racists, how could bills like that even get to the floor for a vote? Your argument is weak as pond water.
