Let's get this straight. Trump's allowed to lie that the election was stolen but Biden isn't allowed to call him out?

1. And he's not allowed to do that ? 2. I never have, no. 3. No, not half... a diminishing minority 4. Calling out the MAGA movement. You folks call Liberals and Democrats "Marxists". I suppose you're right that unity has been irreparably damaged though. I guess it came down to fight fire with fire. My understanding is that Biden has hired a bunch of Maga-type communications experts but for the other side, ie. his side. Too bad

That’s not how this works…. I can’t ponder what is in that brain of yours that would make you say I am for social engineering. “You hate dogs” ”why do you say that about me?” ”Why don’t you think about it”?

WTF? Can you imagine being depressed and in pain and having a Dr or other medical professional advising you to kill yourself? This is akin to the leftist governments who are talking about school counsellors having conversations with children about possible gender reassignment, and freezing parents out of the equation. Children and mentally handicapped/depressed adults shouldn't be getting such destructive advice from Drs and counsellors whom they perceive to be powerful and knowledgeable. I wonder how likely Drs are to give wealthy people who can afford multiple costly prescriptions (and whose families can lawyer-up) the same advice...

we shipped a lot of equipment to them American truckers today down in Missouruh, Texas, Tennesee, and along the I-75 they all want our Canadian made trucker kit that's visors, grills, bumpers, t-bars, slip covers, battery boxes, cabin bunk sets, you name it stainless steel, brushed steel, or aluminum if you want to paint it we got everything done by 1400, so the boss let us go early for the long weekend just chilling in my neighbours swimming pool right now, posting from one of these smart phones drinking some ice cold beers, smoking some government weed the dogs are swimming around me beautiful sunset coming on, the day moon is high in the sky my wife says supper tonight will be Fruits de Mer fish on Friday night, for the Fisherman hold the line happy warriors the protest is a party ?

I see no good reason why the government should ban it

Our government . . . working for us. Hoping Chris Scott 'stays the course' . . .

the government should just get out of the marriage sanctioning business altogether if you want to increase liberty for all and avoid the government taking a moral stance on the issue best of both worlds

William Barr, who was Former President Donald Trump’s attorney general until the final months of his administration, appeared Friday to defend the Department of Justice’s decision to raid Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home and seize thousands of records. “I think the driver on this from the beginning was loads of classified information sitting in Mar-A-Lago,” Barr said in a Fox News interview. “People say this was unprecedented, well, it’s also unprecedented for a president to take all this classified information and put them in a country club, okay?” Barr said. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/09/02/trump-ex-attorney-general-bill-barr-defends-fbi-search-of-mar-a-lago.html

I agree with this. If I was asked to turn over all emails related to a certain person, I would know that means ALL correspondence that relates to that individual. I think AHS knows this too - it's commonsense - but they want to drag this out as long as possible in the hopes that Chris Scott runs out of money or just gives up.

You're a joke. Bottom line is the AHS illegally withheld evidence, the evidence which they will be turning over will be allowed to be presented as evidence in court, and it's 100% reasonable to question their intentions at this point.

One thing Biden never mentions is the fact he and many Democrats are pushing America in that direction: America become a modern day Sodom and Gomorrah? Evidence America has Become the Modern Day Sodom and Gomorrah – Online Ministries (online-ministries.org)

I take a balanced approach with respect to ballot box stuffing… I am against ballot box stuffing. I am also against accusations of ballot box stuffing with zero evidence by crazy conspiracy theorists whenever they lose.

"What a worthless dipshit. He needs to have a stroke, and soon." Forgotten what you wrote in the opening post?

Maybe you should join the Canadian Conservative Party and vote in their upcoming leadership election. By mail-in ballot....

Given the MAGA cult refuse to accept that an election was lost two years later despite no evidence to the contrary, despite major Republican figures and Trump loyalists telling them so, certainly makes them seem pretty extreme. Especially when they've spent the last two years desperately trying to get rid of the Republicans at the state level who were in charge of the elections and refused to cheat on Trump's behalf. And who have they replaced them with? MAGA people who deny the election in their own state was fair. And why? The only logical answer is they expect that come next election these new people will do what needs doing to push their guy over the top and not worry about stuff like laws or constitutions. I'd say extremist is a fair description.

I know that if you knew what you were talking about, your post wouldn't be so idiotic. I said "Russian collusion pre-dawn raid", it's right there in your quote, and it's 100% accurate, genius. The FBI had CNN tag along with them for a pre-dawn raid on Roger Stone's home. The FBI deemed it so dangerous that they needed to have a bunch of automatic weapons locked and loaded but they still had reporters there... hmmm. All for a smear campaign which the FBI knew to be meritless, and where they committed crimes in order to get warrants to spy on members of Trump's campaign. Nothing in the rest of your post was pertinent to anything that I said in my post. I'm not limiting my criticism of the FBI to their Russian collusion witch hunt at all. I wouldn't impugn the integrity of the FBI, formerly one of the world's most respected police forces, just for that one sad episode. The FBI has outed themselves as political actors and the evidence is ubiquitous, overwhelming and incontrovertible.

From the testimony I heard, yes - AHS was requested to produce all emails associated with Chris Scott's case. They did provide some. But in the first day's trial, it was discovered that there were email exchanges related to the case that were not turned over. So the second day was adjourned until the additional emails are located. It appears to me that they already "picked and chose" what emails to share. During the first day's testimony, officers and health inspectors reported additional email exchanges that AHS did not include in the original request, so court is adjourned until they are provided.

Let's call this for what it is. Grumpy Old Men 3

You've got no idea how it feels to be a woman and have some strange guy cursing and yelling at you. That guy was big and intimidating and I highly doubt the ladies were laughing about it. I know I wasn't when we had a deranged neighbor who behaved aggressively; I was afraid to go out the front door. Jeez, can't believe people are so willing to downplay this kind of behavior.

It is sad when politics declined. But it should be noted that Democrats used to OWN bloody brawling name-calling populism in the 1900s...

Don’t you see?? Mail in ballots! (I have no idea what the conspiracy is with mail in ballots, but it’s fun to participate in the craziness…. Sometimes I feel so left out here!)

“Murica” became a banana republic the moment a narcissist with a populist rhetoric reminiscent of Maduro in Venezuela entered the political stage. The fact that MAGA folks are unable to see Trump for what he really is, is astounding. He has a solid cult following of people who have given up on any semblance of critical thinking. Up in arms because of what the FBI did in Maralago? The CIA has been doing similar overseas for decades! The only difference is that the veil has been lifted and some Americans are finally aware of the stench coming out from within the USA. And let’s not forget Biden is a disgrace and Democrats are way over their head with no viable options… poor Murica! But in all fairness, the only country able to bring down the USA is the USA… and they’re well on their way to doing just that. Cheers!

I think that if you stuck to facts instead of inflammatory exaggerations, maybe you wouldn’t feel so upset. You said the FBI and MSM conducted a pre-dawn raid on Mar-a-Lago. None of that is true. The FBI executed a search warrant at 9:00am. Where I live, the sun is up by 9:00am. The FBI did not “raid” Mar-a-Lago. They knocked on the door, served the warrant, and conducted a search. The MSM was informed of the search by Mr. Trump. The FBI did not announce the search; it was Mr. Trump who did. Why did the FBI search for the documents? It’s because the National Archives ASKED, over and over, for the return of government documents, which were not Mr. Trump’s property whether they were classified or not. They got a court order for the documents to be returned, then they traveled at taxpayer expense to retrieve the documents. Mind you… that’s all special treatment. When they got the documents, they found that many of them were highly classified, and per Federal law, they were obligated to report this to law enforcement. The agents contacted Trump and returned to Mar-a-Lago last June to pick up the last remaining documents… which should have never been at Mar-a-Lago and which should have already been returned to the Archives. At this time, agents obtained more classified documents, AND received a sworn affidavit that all records had been returned. FBI then learned that classified material was still present at Mar-a-Lago. Perhaps a Secret Service agent reported this; we don’t know who. But based on the evidence, they obtained a search warrant, they didn’t raw their guns, then didn’t burst in, they didn’t toss smoke grenades or flash bangs, no, sorry, they didn’t raid the place, they simply showed up, served the warrant, and, as per the US Constitution, searched the stated place for the things they believed to find… which they found. There is no US law that says Donald Trump or former Presidents are allowed to break laws. What’s odd here is that the Feds had not charged him despite the obvious commission of crime. They just wanted the stuff back. They asked. They asked again. Then they showed up. Then they were lied to. Then they searched, and it was Trump who announced that he’d been searched. We don’t know if the DOJ will charge Trump in this, but Trump has confessed to having classified information and he’s been the one publicizing this case, not the DOJ. It’s almost as if he wants to be prosecuted for it.

Exactly. It's not about sticking a cliche, crying horrors but making things work. The bureaucracy doesn't know and forgot how to make things work and so it sticks to cliches and horrors. Naturally. Why bother? Nothing changes (for it) anyways.

1) I think it's pretty clear he's tossed that moniker. 2) Sorry - please try to keep "me" out of it. This thread is about Biden's speech. I will continue to label diehards who support Trump in the face of the facts a "cult" because no political leader prior to him in the west would still have such fervent adherents from normal supporters. 3) "Took over" the party and are in s civil war to keep it. 4) And we got here by people calling Democrats "Marxists" with Democrat leaders trying to ignore that, let's face it. 5) And dropping....

I don't think that's the point of this. The point is to set an example for others who want to disagree. The point is to make civil disobedience to governmental overreach so costly and stressful that nobody else ever tries it again.

On the one hand, I do think this. It's not like he trampled her with a riot horse. He didn't seize her bank account. He didn't force her to submit to an experimental medical procedure or else lose her job. And he didn't approach her. With that big smirk on her face the whole time, it didn't appear to me that she was "scared". But then, from a woman's standpoint, you never know what an angry man will do. With Trudeau being run out of so many places and being met with angry, screaming mobs everywhere he goes (I saw video from him in Toronto yesterday where an angry mob was screaming at him), you'd think the government might think this is a red flag that maybe they're doing something wrong.

This speech will wake up many to how divisive and desperate the Biden Administration has become. Many others will get off the fence and realize the Dem party is dying. Only Trump offers any hope, which is why his polling numbers trounce anyone else out there.

he was assassinated by the KGB for being a Ukrainian Nationalist who fought against the Soviet Union in WWII murdered for being the thorn in the side of those who committed genocide in Ukraine easily explainable it's not because many Ukrainians are Nazi's who support killing Jews that many consider him a hero it's because he fought against those who were committing genocide against Ukrainians

the existence of the Azov Battalion doesn't mean Ukraine should receive no foreign assistance it doesn't mean that Russia is the lesser evil nor does it justify Russia's invasion of Ukraine

more so Clinton called half the country a basket of deplorables Biden calls them extremists instead and people try and front like Trump is the divisive one

The truth is that the Liberals are reaping what they sowed. Trudeau and Freeland have been supremely arrogant and inconsiderate of how their policies have impacted people. They didn’t listen to the legitimate concerns of people who opposed mandates and they treated the protesters like criminals and pariahs, both publicly humiliating them and criminalizing the protest. Freeland isn’t a likeable person. I used to respect her intelligence, but she’s a mean-spirited professional politician. That man shouldn’t have insulted her, but the question she and all of us should be asking is. why is this man so angry? I don’t think his frustration is unique. The wounds inflicted by this government are deep. I was a Liberal member who knew my MP and had regular correspondence with MLA’s. I’ll probably never vote Liberal again after this past several months. The government appears to have contempt for a large segment of the population. I still think that if the Senate had backed the Emergencies Act (Trudeau was given word that the voting sentiment was going against him, so he canceled it two days after the House approved it), we would have seen far more totalitarian behaviour. I consider Trudeau and the Singh NDP’s propping up this incompetent government total frauds, but they’ve managed to maintain enough fear — of Covid and Conservatives — to keep enough of the public on-side. The media have basically amplified the fear. As people’s finances tumble and people see how our meritocracy has been replaced by identity politics, it will be harder for the government to maintain itself, especially if they persist with idiot programs like ArriveCAN that have made Canada a laughingstock among free democracies. Freeland and Trudeau are inextricably linked to such programs.

Just a question, does anyone think that we and parliament are blowing this out of proportion, she was called a few names, she was not physically touched , nor was she close to it. rds. I'm also sure the ladies in the elevator had a good laugh over it once the door closed, or at the very least call him a few names... Have we become so thin shined that were need protection detail at the cost of millions and millions of dollars. And now parliament is considering protection for all MP's. They are public figures, and this is the risk of their service. Would not survive 10 seconds in the Army, 15 seconds in the Navy, or 30 seconds in the Air force the old one not the new one with the new poufy hairdos and nose rings and guys in skirts.

You shouldn't have gone all declarative like that because now you're just gonna get hoisted on your own petard again. FYI the evidence in question definitely can be used because it was formally requested by the defence attorneys before the trial began (as per Goddess's post). That means that handing it over was a mandatory legal requirement. The fact that the prosecution disobeyed the law isn't surprising though, because that's the way this whole debacle was handled by our government and the police. And I just gotta ask, wtf do you think the judge wanted the emails if they weren't going to count as evidence? Does he just have too much time on his hands, and he wants to read a bunch of emails just for shits and giggles? Did he ask for a copy of War and Peace in Russian too, plus a Russian - English dictionary?

I would have answered, “Yes, in all cases,” but I would not assume that meant abortion the day before giving birth. Roe v Wade established a cut off at the end of the second trimester, and it’s understood that was the situation except in very exceptional medical emergency cases.

You might be interested in the Free Presbyterian Church from Northern Ireland. They have many sermons from their various ministers. They have established churches in north America including Canada.

It wasn't just the new ranked choice voting that was the problem. It was unverified mail-out ballots. Can't blame the Dems this time though. It was the RINOs. Doesn't matter. Murkowski's crowd sold out Alaska. Alaska is a Democrat state now. Most likely forever. It's California north. And the RINOs are to blame. Something has to be done about them. The midterms in general are in jeopardy for Republicans now if McConnell and that whole crew of RINOs don't get some major pushback.

so long as no person tries to get between me & the Lord I am an Ulster Scots Orangeman fiery & fearsome no man nor office between me & the Almighty fire & brimstone for any who tries to intercede

it is no rebuke, madam I wouldn't rebuke a Christian woman for preaching I am simply not worthy to preach Lord knows I am a sinner Jesus of Nazareth came like a stranger in the night to save me but it is a very personal relationship just between me & Him I struggle to keep up, to chase Him that is more than enough for me

Hopefully she slinks back into the nothingness to never be seen in politics again.

Conservatives are gaining popularity in Quebec on this provincial election. https://tnc.news/2022/07/30/quebec-conservatives/ Could this mean Federal Conservatives will also benefit?

Talk about off the rails! How did a post about a contest so chintzy only 5 people bothered to enter get to Liz Cheney and white replacement theory(*read that conspiracy theory) Reminds me of a local gov't so damn cheap they offered a $100 prize to Grade 12s for a logo contest. Then they threatened me with copyright violation when I used on a website to promote the town. And the kid that designed it worked for me... cheap cheap squeak when they walk.

Plug that into your ArriveCan app on the way to your child’s university mandatory vaccination appointment. Make sure you put less nitrogen in your soil. Just remember, any complaints and we’ll need to look at your access to bank accounts.

Another instance where right-wingers don't want to condemn for what their own do, but would rather blame somebody else.

No I don't think anyone needs to listen to FOX NEWS. Pot meet kettle...again. Your lack of perspective here is hilarious.

There was an example in this very thread, where a routine operation years on a public waiting list was done in three weeks. It doesn't mean "privatize everything" or throw away. But it means that it can work, a fact and shouting "horror private" won't do anything to change it; and if it still wouldn't work after decades of near crisis condition and throwing uncounted public billions (what trillions already?) 'fixing for generation' there has to be a reason. So thinking, objective and independent is called for but where can it be found, here? What if you have a watch that shows you wrong time, or with a huge delay or both no matter how much $$$ you throw into fixing it? What do you do with a watch that stubbornly refuses to work as you want and need it to?

Support the Police. Jail the FBI. Lock her up. Dear Leader is all.

No I'm insinuating that it should. No. Were thousands of people dying from smoking poisoned pot?

Ponder that question and see what comes out of the ether.
