  1. This almost borders obstruction of justice by simply blackmailing law enforcement.

  2. Just for the record: Under the disguise of the 1st ammendment Jordan defended the spreading of lies and misinformations on social media.

  3. I heared that a lot about Trump rallys which makes be me believe a lot of the folks there come for the feel of community and belonging not necessarily for Trump. I think they would even come without Trump. And I guess a lot of them need this social gathering and interaction with other humans because they don't get that enough at home.

  4. Oh I didn't knew that about the governor of Georgia having no pardon power. Thank you Max. Now it's making sense why Trump is so angry at this trial and tries so desperatly to have it somewhere else.

  5. Do you realize how often it happens that the Wrong-Wing creates diversions to not speak about uncomfortable subjects? Trump broke espionage-laws and everyone talks about if the FBI was allowed to search for documents. Or Kapernick bending the knee against police violence and everyone is not talking about police violence but if bending the knee is okay. Like questioning to call the firefighters to a fire but not talk about the fire or the arsonist. And people fall for these strategies all the time.

  6. Assuming god exists he will probably have a serious talk with them about it. If they ever meet him anyway. The other guy will probably claim their soul.

  7. The suggestion to fix "too many guns" with "even more guns" is a sign of mental illness on itself. There is a reason this strategy is called M.A.D.

  8. Isn't that evidence that she has no shame whatsoever? Which would explain some things. No shame, no class, no integrity, no decency, no honesty. What is a shame is that people elected her a representative.

  9. I have to admit I never liked him in the movies. Now I know why.

  10. America 21st century ... 2023 A.D. something for the history books Edit: Why for some reason the movie "Wall-E" popped into my mind.

  11. +1 for the excellent definition of "Schadenfreude" and perfectly applied in this case

  12. For example? Come on, give me your best example. Maybe we even agree with you.

  13. Thank you David. Your "Congress for dummies Margorie" was excellent. Especially the impatient body language. * rofl *

  14. Maybe we need to extend the debate to 1) What is considered "good" and "morally" (or "ethical" if your prefer) 2) Can you be "good" and "morally" without religion

  15. I think a lot of people have become addicted to anger. And they get their daily doses from vendors like Fox, Newsmax, OAN and social media who make sure you have always something to be angry about. You can also wrap your personal anger about yourself, your life, your bad luck and fate in there and throw everything against whatever Fox and Co. are telling you to be angry at releaving you from the obligations to solve your personal problems because Fox and Co. are telling you who is to blame for that.

  16. Not only do they hear informations before everyone else but they also sitting in the committees who write the new laws. Meaning depending on their portfolio they can influence or even make laws which directly benefit themselves. They potentially sit in investigations and can read the final report before everyone else and they sometimes even have access to top secret information not even the markets will ever hear. And they control budgeting which can heavily impact the economy.

  17. This topic requires a lot of detail and nuance to avoid making mistakes. Can we please commit to a list of facts before debating anything: 1a) All Hamas are palestinians ... but not all palestinians are Hamas. 1b) Most palestinians are moslems but not all moslems are palestinians. 1c) Palestine does not exist as a country. It is not allowed to exist. It's people live mostly in Gaza and Israel. 2) People and governments are not the same. Please distinguish between both. 2a) Not all of Israel voted for Netanyahu so please distinct between people and government. 2b) Hamas was voted once over 15 years ago but since then turned dictatorship and terror-regime and no elections. 3) Israel is a country. Judaeism is a religion. Please distinguish both. A jew in America is an American and has nothing to do with Netanyahu or the israelian government.

  18. This is what this is all about isn't it. What is carefully avoided to say out loud ... that some see women as property. Formerly hidden under the name marriage and with it the right to do everything with this "property".

  19. It's so terrible that Americans fall so easily for political ads so that an election practically is 50% pay-2-win via ads and the other the letter after your name. And this in turn makes media not talk about corruption / bribery / donations because you not bite the hand feeding you or cut the banch you sitting on.

  20. 1) All of Trumps kids had roles in his government and were compensated with federal tax money. 2) China hates Biden with the Inflation Reducting Act he introduced sanctions on China especially high-tech and semiconductors this hurts China so badly that Huawei needed to make a new phone with 3 year old chips because they were the only ones available. It's also bad on electric vehicles, high-tech weapons and military stuff. Another reason why China is so fond on Taiwan the worlds center for semiconductors. But even that did Biden conter by the Chips-act and encourage Taiwanese companies to build factories in the US. The idea is good. I disliked that the most profitable industry on the planet gets billions in tax-money to encourage building in the US and I disliked that these Taiwanese companies importing Taiwanese workers because of a lack of skills.

  21. His voice/throat sounds as dry as thirty miles of Death Valley fire trail.

  22. Putin realized a long time ago you cannot defeat America directly only from within. And it's working. He is doing this for almost 15 years by now and Trump and Brexit are his greatest successes so far.
    6
  23. You are right. 8 years of Clinton nothing happened. 8 years of Obama nothing happened. 4 years of Biden nothing happened. What are these people afraid of? Why should the next 4 years be different to the 20 other years with Democrat presidents? America becoming socialist? America becoming communist? ... Please. This never happened since the end of WW2. And the Democrats are not as "left" as you are told to believe fear but of course you wouldn't notice unless knowing other countries ... or history for that matter.

  24. The endless greed which took hold especially in the slowly outgoing boomer generation changed society in their favor to satisfy this greed. But in the process they changed society in a way breaking the societal contract for the people coming after them. You work and work and work and not really coming ahead. You no longer properly live you just surive. And survival is not enough. Society changed for most from "Working to live" to "Living to work" and that's not sustainable and not a decent life. In fact it resembles slavery more and more just in a milder modern form. EDIT: Renting is another form of this exploitation. In the 70ties the percentage of rent on your income was 5% now it's 50-70% this is unsustainable.

  25. You cannot convince Trump supporters with logic or arguments anymore especially not by liberals with a different accent coming from big city. They have to come to the conclusions themselves. And when Trae is able to use comedy (and his accent) to reach them and make one or two of them think again it is all worth it.

  26. He "feels" it. That's the problem. How about knowing?

  27. There would be simple solution to inflation: Make a law binding all wages, pensions and benefits to the inflation rate. Meaning you get each year automatically an increase at least as height as the inflation rate. -- Voilá Inflation is not an issue for working people.

  28. What really anger me is: I can see the lies media is telling the Right-Wing everyday. I can see how Right-Wing media is using the existing anger people rightfully have (tons of problems in America), stoke anger and direct it to whatever target they wish (and try to keep it away from the Republican Party). And I can't do anything about it because they think I am the sheep or I am part of the Conspiracy. And they make you the enemy for trying to tell them that and trying to prevent bad things from happening.

  29. The question which is way too often not asked is ... Why! "Why" forces you to think rational, to find arguments, to make sense out it. So keep asking why. Why has "Sleepy Joe to go" or why is Trump keeping top secret documents or why Republicans trying to make voting harder. Why should Hillary be indicted but not Trump for the same crime. Why is socialism bad. Why is woke bad. Why is this or that. Keep asking "Why?"! It can show you if someone understands his opinion or just repeating a line without knowning the backgrounds ... the "why" of it. And if you cannot answer the "why" you should seriously consider saying "I don't know" or "I havn't made up mind yet." instead of just stating your opinion without any substance or foundation to support it.

  30. I don't care if it's a Republican or Democrat voted there. Just pick someone decent.

  31. Once again the question comes up: Is "Freedom of Speech" the "Freedom to Lie"? Please answer this because this question encompasses all politicians, all media and especially social media. I for one thinks every human has a right for the Truth as well. Therefore I want a new human right "The Right for Truth" creating a balance to "Freedom of Speech". Will it end the lying? No, but it will make those who do responsible for their lies ... as it should be ... and may make them consider twice the next time.

  32. There is a saying: "If you stick to the truth (...) you will not go mad." Sounds simple enough but there is a lot of wisdom baked in.
    6
  33. There are only 2 solutions: Either Trump is making an executive order limiting the prices of certain goods and services - or - people get more wages so they can pay for stuff again. Billionaires, stockholders and CEOs hate both because it reduces their profitmargin.
    6
  34. Just wait for the illusions about Trump falling apart over the next years you will have work for decades fixing that.

  35. He should meet with McConnel instead. The Republicans are largely voting against any more measures. Biden cannot help with that.
    6
  36. Mockery gets them. They really hate it. Mockery and being called out publicly especially with their own words. But be careful to not overdo it the reaction can be strong and depending on the level of power this person has it can have serious consequences which is why these people should never get any power.

  37. A legal fund allowing other women suffering from Trump's actions to sue Trump would be fantastic. A lot have not the money nor the legal representation or the bravery to come out. I hope this case and perhaps her money can help with that. Edit: Perhaps even a fund to allow all women to sue men who were raped or beaten to get some justice.

  38. The irony is ... Solar Power and Wind is already cheaper per unit generated than fossil fuel power due to the price hikes on crude oil and natural gas. But of course you will not hear that on channels who have ads of Shell, Exxon and BP on them.
    6
  39. It's blackmail by Maga and most in the GOP: You only get to help Israel if you make us and donors richer first. P.S. If you not at least earn 400,000$ per year and need an accountant to make your taxes you are not part of the "us".

  40. I watched a lot of these types of video. Did you notice that ALL of them hinge on Trump always telling the truth. None of his suppporters questions Trumps honesty even the notion that Trump may by lying is crushed immediatly. Because ALL of it hinges on assuming Trump is telling the truth. Once you take it out their house of cards is falling apart.

  41. I will next say something which looks rather simple but it sums up the results of thousands of pages of economy analysis over decades of research: "The more you share the more you be plentiful." ... I know sounds like I took it from the series "The Expanse" or even from a Fortune Cooky but it brings to a point an important fact: Workers are also Customers. If you starve them you starve yourself.
    6
  42. Freedom of Speech does not mean you can say whatever you want. It just means you are not punished by the government for it ... within reason. For example threatening with violence or other forms of hate speech is a problem or defamation. As long as your speech is not impeeding the rights of others you can say whatever you want.

  43. Imagine if they done the oppossit: Teaching kids how to solve issues with a gun. Altough they would probably approve of that do they?
    6
  44. The guy could use a little lesson about what a fact is. And maybe the info that you can read or hear a lie from multiple sources and it still remains a lie.
    6
  45. What is a "leftie ideology"? 15$ minimum wage? Child-tax relief? Affordable healthcare? Affordable drugs? Affordable Housing? Fair taxation? Same rights and privileges for all citizens? Give me a "left" policy you don't like!
    6
  46. What's a "trans agenda"? And please don't tell me they just have an issue with "same rights/treatment for all"?
    6
  47. When they say "We lose our freedoms bit by bit" can you please ask them "What freedoms? Please give me your best example". And depending on the answer remind them there is only one freedom gone the decission over your own body as a pregnant woman. And this loss comes from Trump.

  48. Ignore for a moment he was once the president. Then you have: - Someone with 2 Federal arrests waiting to be trialed, 2 State arrest waiting to be trialed - Someone who is allegedly 2.5 bn $ wealthy - Someone who owns resorts, hotels, properties across the planet - Someone with his own airplane - And god knows how many bankaccounts in all kinds of countries - Someone with enough charges that even a small percentage found guilty bringing him to prison for the rest of his life If such a person is not a flee risk ... what is? And is the only answer: Because he was once a president? What makes him so special? What happend to "all people are equal before the law"?

  49. By not respecting and valueing the truth properly. And by giving idiots a plattform.
    6
  50. Guess who don't want critical thinking people in society (FYI: People who can detect lies and misinformation themselves)? This looks more and more like a planned design not an accident.
