  1. Wouldn't Data have to qualify as a person, just to get into the Academy?

  2. He fired about 8 shots and hit 3 audience members and grazed Trump. Oswald had been in the military, so there's that difference. It's one of the failures of the SS that he was able to fire 8 shots before they killed the shooter.

  3.  @shawncrawford3146  Trump never said he withheld aid for an announcement of an investigation of the Bidens. That's a presupposition, of the media, and everyone pushing this. The only evidence is that the announcement didn't happen.

  4. This whole thing is a joke. The president is entitled to ask the Ukrainians to investigate possible corruption. Like all of these "scandals" the bitter Democrats jump ahead 2 or 3 suppositions to arrive at a conclusion that Trump committed some terrible crime. In this case there is absolutely no evidence, of any kind, that Trump wanted an unfair investigation of the Bidens or Burisma--only that's something the Democrats would know about.

  5. These people are such phonies. For 3 years it was: "Trump should welcome an investigation so he can be exonerated if he's innocent." Now it's : "How dare you consider investigating the Bidens."

  6. Texas isn't seceding. They're just enforcing the boarder and immigration laws, while the feds under crooked Joe Biden insist that they be unenforced. This kind of think is already happening. There are "sanctuary states" which refuse to enforce federal law. The feds could also crack down on the states which legalized marijuana--it's criminal under federal law. Politics limits the feds' power. Biden is already boosting Trump's poll numbers with his open borders policy.

  7. The Democrats and mainstream media are pretty much the opposite of that. Sondland even admitted in testimony that he had no evidence, but just presupposed that there was some secret deal.

  8. Trump has collected huge amounts of campaign donations from this BS. He's not the one under water. The Democrats are the ones nervous about this.

  9.  @michelem7786  That's what's so disturbingly funny about this. They're not convincing independent voters. Trump is not in trouble. The accusation of "bribery" doesn't even make any sense. It's politicians who are bribed, by "civilians" seeking their authority. The President doesn't bribe people. This is just so desperate.

  10. You start off with a corporate media lie. M-25-13 did not "freeze all federal assistance programs" "Any program not implicated by the President’s Executive Orders is not subject to the pause."

  11.  @Spikebert  You know a series is done when they start using time travel all the time as a plot device. TNG never really got to that point. But it always pissed me off that a hyper intelligent android couldn't use contractions.
    2
  12.  @artbargra  Do you realize that there have been no indictments of Trump.
    2
  13. It's not first hand knowledge, so it's not a "whistleblower" complaint. It's just some stunt by Adam Schiff to keep his endless fake scandals going. On the plus side, at minimum, this is going to guarantee the Senate is in GOP control. The Dems don't even have the balls to hold a vote on impeachment proceedings.
    2
  14. There's even indications that Sondland was sucking up to the media establishment for his own protection, the same was Epstein at first got a short sentence because he was an establishment darling.

  15.  @CaptWesStarwind  So he has some business loans. We don't even know if the NYT story is true. They publish BS ("sources say") all the time. So Biden is going to show indignation at Trump following the tax code, when he was in the Senate for 47 years? You guys are desperate.
    2
  16.  @CaptWesStarwind  The Mueller report 🤣 You guys are shameless. There's currently a criminal investigation into the origins of that fake investigation. It was based on Russian intelligence disinformation. You screamed for years indignantly about something you were doing.

  17. It actually does make sense. Lucas didn't have the budget to hire an army of 8 ft tall Wookies. So he went all cutesy and came up with the Ewoks. Little people are clearly cheaper.
    2
  18. There's so many layers of BS that Bragg uses to make a case. That Giuliani saying it was a hush money payment (which is legal) isn't a problem for Trump. The problem is with Bragg, and Cohen's letter that says that Trump had nothing to do with Cohen's payment. So what if Trump did make the payment? The DOJ didn't prosecute because election law doesn't consider such payments to be campaign contributions (see John Edward case).

  20.  @Spikebert  The writing isn't completely consistent, with some obviously nonsensical plot points. For example, it's in some episodes that Data can't use contractions. He's a sentient android who can understand quantum physics...but can't learn contractions.

  21. The president can classify or unclassify anything at will. If he wanted to hide the conversation he could have. In general, he wants to, because the majority of the press doesn't act in good faith. There were immediately 2 fake stories circulating: ABC story that reopening investigation was a precondition of the phone call, and the director of the DNI threatened to resign. Both fake.
    1
  22. What's so annoying about the fake stories, is that all the other "news" outlets repeat them. The current media has gotten so bad that on CNN and MSNBC about 3/4 of what they say is fake bs.

  23. Gun control wouldn't have helped. Oswald was more successful with a bolt action Italian WW1 rifle.

  24. Each case is a made up media crime. In GA all his lawyer has to do is play the full phone call. In the documents controversy the Supreme Court has ruled that the president has plenary power to declassify. Bill Clinton won a civil case over taking tapes, so obviously Trump would win a criminal case.

  26.  @artbargra  I don't know what that means. Particularly Democrats don't realize how extraordinarily weak this is. Not only is Bragg using a contrived novel theory to even construct a case. Cohen is a completely unreliable witness. His lawyer sent a letter to the DOJ in 2018 stating outright that Trump had nothing to do with the payment. So to recap. Bragg has a new theory on how he can prosecute Trump for a federal crime in State court, and use a clause to raise it to a felony, even though the statute of limitations has expired, there is no crime to use to raise to a felony (the DOJ never prosecuted Trump), their main witness is proven liar/perjurer whom the DOJ wanted nothing to do with, the "alleged" payoff is not a campaign violation by precedent (i.e. John Edwards trial), and there is evidence that Trump had nothing to do with the payment. Trump isn't the one in trouble here.
    1
  27. Don't you guys ever feel silly doing this? This case has already completely fallen apart. Bragg is not looking for an exit, because a prosecution would probably get him disbarred. They have a letter from Cohen's lawyer saying that Trump had nothing to do with the payment and Cohen is a liar.

  28.  @artemisfowl9219  They didn't just investigate the Trump campaign. They forged documents to get FiSA warrants; 2 undercover FBI informants contacted Paige and Papadopolous; They tried to entrap both of them. One informant gave Papadapolous 10K dollars, thinking he wouldn't report it to customs so they could arrest him when he entered the US. But we can't investigate obvious corruption by the Bidens. These people are total liars.

  29.  @Agarwaen  Where's the evidence he was concerned about a public statement? That's just a media narrative. The money was paid.
    1
  30.  @Agarwaen  That's just media speculation. And as we've seen, that's not credible. I mind you, part of the media narrative is that when Trump said on the phone "I wan't nothing, no quid pro quo", that that meant that he wanted a quid pro quo. Now they're arguing that that phone call didn't take place. You should know, that the media and Dems are just throwing BS at the wall. You're not actually stupid enough to take it seriously?
    1
  31.  @Agarwaen  LOL Just like he was terrified that he would be found out as a Russian agent.

  32. What's hilarious about this, is that the supposed deal to announce Biden was under investigation (which is supposed to be the scandal) never happened. But because of all this nonsense, the public knows about the Bidens shady pay for play scemes, nepotism and extortion of Ukrainian officials.

  33. If you were British, you wouldn't want to be in the E.U. Britain is the only European country with a modern history of democracy, more than 80 years.

  34.  @turboshelby87  The US can dissolve. But what's going on in the US now is just politics. But the Democrats are doing everything they can to bring the country to an 1860 level of division. But the problem with their political weaponization of the courts, etc., is apparent when you look at the polls. They've lost the support of the people.

  35. It's accurate.
    1
  36.  @Enyavar1  Correction, Bragg was planning to to indict Trump. But the case completely fell apart when Cohen's former lawyer testified on Tuesday. Trump foresaw this, so he got ahead of the media cycle. Trump won this, and Bragg has egg on his face.

  37. That's a ridiculous self-serving talking point that it's "nuclear weapons documents". You seriously think anyone in the WH knows anything about nuclear physics? Documents on nuclear engineering/physics mean absolutely nothing to anyone without an advanced education, i.e. nobody there could read it.

  38. It's interesting how the political and media establishments always give glowing appraisals of crooks right up until they are prosecuted. CNN drooled all over Michael Avanati.

  39. He starts off with a lie. M-25-13 did not "freeze all federal assistance programs" "Any program not implicated by the President’s Executive Orders is not subject to the pause."

  40. The case already completely fell apart on Tuesday. Cohen's former lawyer testified that Trump had nothing to do with the payment, and Cohen is a liar.

  41.  @Enyavar1  LOL Trump droned striked ISIS in to oblivion. Obama assassinated a 16 year old US citizen.

  42. The FEC has guidelines to what is a campaign expense and what isn't. Hush money payments are not, if it something the candidate would normally pay for.

  43. What's uncalled for is politicians, in House and Senate, getting upset at Trump for following the tax code that they wrote. You can't blame Trump's accountants for calculating his tax burden according to the tax code.
    1
  44.  @gingercat777  You basically need a crime to have the political will to impeach. They can't get a single Republican, and a few Democrats are abstaining, because they haven't found a crime. There is no chance this will get Trump removed.
    1
  45.  @stephen3164  They are investigating the Bidens. This has come up in the Ukrainian parliament. And you don't give up your freedom of speech just because you're president. What next, is Trump guilty of "election meddling" if he says Biden shouldn't be president?
    1
  46.  @gingercat777  That's the difference with Watergate, and all of these silly media scandals. In that case there was a crime, the Watergate break in, and Nixon our of loyalty, protected the perpetrators. There's no crime in this case. Anyone with basic common sense should look into a company with Hunter Biden as an executive, which is being protected by Joe Biden's extortion.
    1
  47.  @stephen3164  And you have never called for anyone to be investigated? Hypocrite much?

  48. It's not a crime if you follow the law. Everybody does it. You can put your money in a personal business, and get lower tax rates. Say you live in one state, which has a high tax for registering a boat, so you register it at a harbor in a nearby state. Or it could be as simple as living in a state with low property taxes.

  49. Because people know these cases are BS.

  50. This video starts off with a lie. M-25-13 did not "freeze all federal assistance programs" "Any program not implicated by the President’s Executive Orders is not subject to the pause."

  51. Except this video repeats a common corporate media lie. M-25-13 did not "freeze all federal assistance programs" "Any program not implicated by the President’s Executive Orders is not subject to the pause." In particular, this does not apply to entitlement program, like SNAP, Medicaid, etc.

  54.  @PanikaMCD  Few outside of TX are going to know about a state representative. And "zero bills" isn't necessarily a bad thing. Legislatures waste too much money as it is.

  56.  Eduardo Iglesias  There's evidence coming out that of Biden taking payments from China and Ukraine through his son. And an there a report of an anti-CCP group in China saying that the CCP has dirt on Hunter that they were going to use against Biden if he gets in office again. What's amazing is that Russiagate, Ukrainegate/impeachment, Trump tax and business hysterics, was apparently a shield for Democrat corruption. A pure political tactic, where you put your opponent on the defensive so none of your corruption get investigated.

  57.  @Enyavar1  That's not what happened. Bragg was planning to indict, but the last minute witness destroyed any case they had. Now, if Bragg continues he will ruin his career. You guys got played.

  60.  @danielgodfrey4415  The people cheering this don't seem to realize that Stormy Daniels and Michael Cohen are total publicity seeking liars. Daniels even published a signed letter in January stating that the affair never happened. And Cohen's lawyer testified on Tuesday that Trump had nothing to do with the payment. You can't prosecute when all the prosecution witnesses are liars who have admitted to being liars.

  63. Don't you guys ever feel silly doing this? The case has already completely fallen apart. Bragg was trying to base a case on Cohen, who is a convicted perjurer. Cohen's former lawyer has already testified that Trump had nothing to do with the payment. Bragg totally has egg on his face.

  64. It has one thing in common. The narrative is based on a lie, just like the "fake electors" story. M-25-13 did not "freeze all federal assistance programs" "Any program not implicated by the President’s Executive Orders is not subject to the pause."

  65.  @FrejaProudTransbian  Dude. You can look up the text of M-25-13. You're lying.

  66.  @FrejaProudTransbian  This is a coordinated desperate media lie. Right from M-25 13: "2 Nothing in this memo should be construed to impact Medicare or Social Security benefits." "defines Federal financial assistance to mean...but this term does not include assistance provided directly to individuals."

  67.  @FrejaProudTransbian  LOL The 50 million for condoms for Gaza was shut off.

  68.  @FrejaProudTransbian  Big surprise that this Dem shill Legaleagle is repeating a coordinated media lie. The joke is that you guys are defending the bureaucratic swamp. USAID was spending money on trans surgeries in Columbia. And giving aid to illegal open farmers in Afghanistan. Go with it!!!

  69. This is just Russiagate 20.0 People make a big fuss over fake allegations that have no basis in fact. It's goes on way longer that is should have. And then it goes away, because there's nothing there. For example, an ex-president doesn't get in trouble of having classified documents. He has the authority to declassify anything. He has the ultimate authority over that, not the Archives.

  70. Congress and the SC never said that.
    1
  71. @ Um..no. The SCOTUS ruled that the president has immunity in actions in which he's exercising official presidential duties. That's always been the case. But the SC was forced to rule it explicitly because of the Democrats shameless lawfare against Trump.
    1
  72. The SCOTUS never ruled that the president is a king above the law. Presidential immunity only applies to "official duties of the office". I.e. a president cannot be prosecuted for having classified documents, or firing executive department employees. Seriously, how much of being a Democrat entails playing dumb?
    1
  73. @ That's the exact point I made. The SCOTUS ruled that the president cannot be prosecuted for "official duties of the office". That's basically always been the case. They were forced to make that explicit ruling because of the Biden DOJ's absurd lawfare against Trump. B.T.W. that lawfare drove Trump to the greatest political comeback in US history. So you must feel really stupid after this.

  74.  @Enyavar1  "Prosecutors Signal Criminal Charges for Trump Are Likely" NY Times, March 10. Already aggressively coping.
    1
  75.  @Enyavar1  People were expecting the grand jury to indict. Because you can get a biased jury to indict just about anyone. But the last witness completely destroyed whatever case they had. So Bragg can continue and ruin his career, or look for and exit that minimizes embarrassment. He's likely doing the latter.

  76. First, they don't have anything. Second, you can't "just lock him" in the US. One can only be sentenced if they are convicted of a crime.
    1
  77. Um...no. There's a letter from Cohen's lawyer that says that Trump had nothing to do with the payment to Stormy Daniels. The msnbc audience doesn't seem to realize that Cohen is a pathological liar. They have no case on something that isn't illegal. And if it were, would be punished with a fine by the FEC.
