  1. Dude they LITERALLY just pulled trump from the ballot in two states on grounds that NOBODY thinks they had the authority to. They literally created a fake dossier and used to weaponize the FBI to go after their political opponent. They have pushed for less accountability at the polling stations - that badly erodes people's faith in democracy as we've CLEARLY seen in the last few years with a huge percent of the population having NO faith in the last election results because there's so many avenues for cheating that couldn't' be detected. THat's before we get into spending 4 years falsely claiming that trump is illigitmate as a president due to 'collusion'. which very obviously never happened. But that they assured would be proven any day now for 4 years. You've STILL got hillary appearing on tv saying trump is an illegitimate president. ' Doesn't mean the republicans are guilt free on that score either but don't you DARE pretend the dems haven't done a lot to erode democracy

  2. Sorry - they're not qualified to make that decision about that law and every other state recognized that. Complete swing and a miss there. IF they had real concerns they would have done what other states did and kicked it up to the proper authority for a ruling It absolutely is. When you deliberately spread known fake allegations and use the fbi to attack your politcial opponent - that is an attack on democracy and is VERY undemocratic, Done many times, there's entire threads on it. Go look, It is possible for there to be large amounts of things like ballot harvesting that would go undetected for example. We had a case on film and nobody including the authorities could tell if the lady was breaking the law or not for sure. it 100 percent is if you're a political party and you're doing so to claim the president is illegitimate. I just did. And your only argument was "nuh uh!!!!!". because you care more about your party than you do about democracy or america. And you can do that if you like, But don't complain when other people call you on it. The fact is that the democrats have deliberately interfered with and eroded the democratic process numerous times and if you're any indication they have every intention of doing so as much as htey need to in order to win elections and hold on to power, and screw democracy.

  6. There's not a leftist here that can name a positive achievement by Trudeau or Biden. Those two just aren't achievers. All they do is virtue signal and f everything up royally. Yet somehow, leftards on this site can't find any fault with them, and they cling to every anti-Trump anti-Poilievre story that comes along like drowning men clutching at straws. Who on God's green earth would look out their window and think to themselves "Another term of Biden/Trudeau is just what the doctor ordered"? These leftards do nothing but spew lies, exaggerate, omit, cheer on FBI crimes, and their campaign slogans are platitudes like "If Trump wins it's the end of democracy!" On average, these guys are 4 yr olds at best. I can't help but wonder how much actual value our countries get out of 10M leftists... What do they contribute that's worthwhile? We really need to take the warning labels off of everything. This is what we get for trying to defy Darwinism.

  7. Let’s recap: Firstly I accurately stated that Russia would never attack NATO directly, then YOU butted in to say “oh yeah well NATO would never attack Russia directly” which is not in dispute and irrelevant to the discussion bit is the start of the “I lnow you are hut what am I retorts” And the whole “freedumbs” line was invented over a decade ago to make fun of Tea Party types with their misspelled signs and lack of basic knowledge and understanding Now you’re ate all to describe people who oppose a dictator like Putin?

  9. and exit polling sowed 2/3 think the 2020 election was stolen. And that many would still have voted for Trump if he was criminally convicted. And ALL of them voted for someone accused of sexual assault by more women than they even knew personally. The choice of a few deplorables in no way reflects the choice of the people of Iowa or any other state.

  10. Sure. And if you're going to be homeless being in a place with more warm corners to hide in and more free services is obviosuly a boon. Vancouver is also one of the more warm places in winter so we get the homeless and the retirees I think at the end of the day we can probably agree that homelessness, drug use, traffic congestion, etc etc and the crankyness that sometimes accompanies those things are all shitty things - it's just a question of how much of those shitty things you personally think is unacceptable and conservatives probably have a lower tolerance on average. I think that conservatives and liberals probably look at the same thing and one considers it a failure of those people adn the other considers it a failure of the state. "the people are homeless because they're not doing what they need to in order to have a stable life" vs "Society is not doing what it needs to in order to prevent them from falling to this state so it's our fault not theirs".

  12. The demonrats are always whining and keep saying that if Trump becomes President democracy will be in peril. Yet, at the same time, these demonrats are trying to destroy democracy just by watching all that they are doing today and their anti-democratic actions in America to try and destroy democracy. Democracy will be in peril, and even lost, if those demonrats win the next election. Those lefty liberal arse holes must be stropped or else freedom as Americans know it today will be eliminated. Never trust democracy in the hands of the liberal/demonrats because they do not believe in freedom and democracy. Democracy is a nasty problem that keeps getting in their communist like minded way. Help save democracy. GO, TRUMP, GO. 😇

  13. first of all, i'm no stupid and neither are you. please control your frustration. lets take this bit by bit shall we. that will help everyone understand. yes, thats the point i was trying to make that deaths numbers need to be in proportion to the size of their group. so please provide verifiable statistics that "86/100 Canadians who died of covid were vaxed". i'm unable to find anything to support this. 'You can't just look at the raw data': Unvaccinated patients dying from COVID-19 at higher rates in several provinces "Provincial (Alberta) data shows the death rate is about 56.5 per 100,000 people among those who are unvaccinated and five years of age or older. Meanwhile, the death rate for people who are vaccinated with two doses drops to 12.5 per 100,000 people. Those vaccinated with three doses had a death rate of 13.3 per 100,000, however, a majority of these deaths were among patients who were at least 80 years of age, a group that is especially vulnerable to COVID-19-related hospitalization and death" so yeah, if you were saying that old people don't have much of a chance either way then that appears to be true.

  14. It's worse than comical, its deadly. He's not setting anyone straight at all, he's directly contributing to the stream of misinformation that steers people into making deadly decisions. Its death and disease spread by word of mouth. Vaccine hesitancy, fuelled by misinformation and conspiracy theories, led to thousands of unnecessary deaths and hospital stays and cost the health care system at least $300-million during two COVID-19 waves in 2021, according to a report that highlights the urgent risk to society of such false claims. https://archive.ph/S168Y#selection-1363.0-1367.101

  15. That might just be the burrito he warmed up in the microwave for lunch. Nobody wants to cook for him anymore and he's never been good with instructions. As to his enemies i doubt the list is short. But he HAS to be feeling increasing pressure every day from his caucus given the polls. i suspect they gave him a bit of an ultimatum at the last retreat in fall last year - "we'll give you a chance to right the ship but if you can't pull it off, then you need to rethink your leadership next january while we still have time for a leadership race". He has tried very hard to have his time in office mirror his father -right down to being the only one to declare the war measures/emergency act. It would not surprise me if he decided to "take a walk in the snow" and bow out. Well that's a good point. Tho he might just have been testing the waters to see if voters jumped up and said "yes trudeau save us from the evil conservatives and trump!" , He hasn't got much to run on and he's brought up trump a few times now.

  17. and then: b. Supply challenges that largely reflect developments at the global level account for another 35% of the rise in inflation. Right there, in plain English! 🤣 50+35 = 85% of inflation accounted for!

  18. No, I mean: a. Around 50% of the increase in inflation observed since the end of 2019 can be ascribed to global or foreign factors. These include US inflation, commodity prices and movements in the exchange rate. b. Supply challenges that largely reflect developments at the global level account for another 35% of the rise in inflation. 50% global/foreign factors + 35% to supply challenges = 85% of inflation accounted for.

You opened the boarder and told the nation the border is closed...failure. You allowed an id1ot to pull out of Afghanistan with your tails between your legs...and failed. You shut America down and gave money to everyone causing massive inflation...and massive failure. You attacked the energy sector and elevated the inflationary pressures...more massive failure. Crime is now a spectator sport...failure. You ran a proxy war in Ukraine costing the Ukrainians 1/3 of their land and most of their able bodied men...and failed. Oh well...at least you're consistent.

  25. IF he was unimpeachable after he left office and you can't impeach someone after they left then if the proceedings hadn't started before he left office it would not be legally possible to continue. And in fact that was brought up. And they decided you could impeach after someone left office. I mean think about it - if the house had voted to then they'd still have to go to the senate, which is a seperate process and would have started LONG after he left. Take a look: https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/LSB/LSB10565 "it appears that most scholars who have closely examined the question have concluded that Congress has authority to extend the impeachment process to officials who are no longer in office. As an initial matter, a number of scholars have argued that the delegates at the Constitutional Convention appeared to accept that former officials may be impeached for conduct that occurred while in office. This understanding also tracks with certain state constitutions predating the Constitution, which allowed for impeachments of officials after they left office. It also accords with the British impeachment of Warren Hastings two years after his resignation as the governor-general of Bengal." That's from the congressional research service. It would seem that there's a great deal of evidence to support the idea that a president CAN be impeached at a later time after they've left office.

  26. Impeachment is only for a sitting president you thundering m0ron. Impeachment means prosecuting a holder of public office. You don’t impeach ex-presidents or someone who has already left office Nixon wasn’t impeached because he resigned first. His Republican criminal pal pardoned him to avoid a normal investigation prosecution of crooked republicans, kicking off a rich Republican tradition that every GOP president has followed. Don’t you ever get embarrassed by how little you know? Seriously.

  27. Abolishing money doesn't build more homes. Price is determined by a simple math formula: # of people vs # of homes. Supply and demand = price. If you increase demand every year and the supply of homes can't keep up the prices of homes will continue to go up. If people start buying up homes as investment properties too because they see these housing price increases as a good investment with no financial disincentive to do so it will just increase the demand even more and make the problem even worse.

  28. You melted your own brain doing desperate mental gymnastics to make these quotes mean something that doesn't so obviously torpedo your clueless bullshitting. It's definitely not complicated, and it's definitely not saying what you pretend it does. a. Around 50% of the increase in inflation observed since the end of 2019 can be ascribed to global or foreign factors. These include US inflation, commodity prices and movements in the exchange rate. b. Supply challenges that largely reflect developments at the global level account for another 35% of the rise in inflation. I don't see any mention of "internal but reflecting world issues" there. That was Fox-believe fantasy. Those two quotes cannot be true alongside your claim. Trudeau can't have been responsible for over 50% of the inflation spike we experienced, when we already have 85% specifically accounted for.

  33. Of course he wouldn't. For a few reasons. 1 - he doesn't promise what people want to hear just to get elected, if he promises something he intends to do it, 2 - the CPC has always been about power to the provinces. Keep the feds out of provincial matters unless you really have to get involved. So his attitude would be "if you don't like fish farms talk to your premier". And that is the correct answer.

  38. It's an important topic, io. Fifteen years ago people with different political affiliations could speak to each other, but that's no longer the case. The BS narrative that "All conservatives are "[name any pejorative]s" is the main reason for that. Pretty much everyone in NA would be assumed to be putting their country ahead of their political affiliation 15 years ago, but it's unlikely that the majority of leftists are primarily loyalty to Canada/USA, and many of them clearly pander to our geopolitical rivals, or even enemies. Lying used to be frowned upon - there used to be actual shame associated with it - but leftists have gone full-Goebbels. They consider it their duty to lie and they are psychotic in that regard. As a result of all ^that^, the leftist tent is shrinking right now, as more and more minorities, college-educated people, women, etc, are finding it harder and harder to stay onboard. They're either drifting into 'voter apathy' territory or completely swapping sides. The holdovers are either just there because they haven't been paying attention, they're too proud to admit that they were wrong, or they're actual cultists. Find me a person who still supports all the damage from the BLM riots, the forced vaxing of young adults/firing of the unvaxed, etc, and I'll show you a pure cultist. I'm not sure where we go from here. I dunno if democracy in the US can be salvaged right now... One party controls the MSM, most of the judiciary, plus they have the FBI in their pocket... What more does it take? Leftists here applauded vax-fascism. They didn't blink when Zelensky banned opposition parties and assumed total control of the media. What percent of leftists in the US would object to Biden swapping out 2 SCJ's, cancelling Trump, and shutting down Fox News? The FBI can get rid of a couple SCJ's on false pretences and leftists will support it 100%. Fox News? Easy pickings. They'll celebrate it. They're already cheering on the crap against Trump - they just want blood and they don't care how illegitimate a conviction against him would be. It's scary how close we are to seeing the US become a fully authoritarian state.

Once you understand the big picture you start to see that the West is also run by brutal thugs, and some of them are elected. We the people support our right to defend ourselves, which to some people also means our right to blow the hell out of peasants with bandy-legs, in order to assert regional supremacy. And that's how little Hitlers gets made. So there's another faction, just like in the US during both world wars. Who the hell are we to tell other people how to solve their regional problems? Why should we jump in and spend our money and lives on their tangled weave, which they created for themselves? That's also part of US exceptionalism. "US boys should not fight in a war, that Asian boys should be fighting, for THEMSELVES". But then there needs to be a time when you do step in, whenever it reaches a level it could affect you. That's why the US did eventually enter the war, though perhaps unwillingly. In delaying entry and finishing off the Huns, USA became the top superpower. Which is why Trump is against them diving in and involving themselves. The US should not need to. Not obligated to. Democrats played the opposite and have now exhausted the funding. The well is dry, sorry folks. Now the Ukraine can go up the river Jordan. .... "Checkmate" - Vlad Putin

  45. In the history of the United States, no government official has ever been impeached after leaving office. The purpose of impeachment is removal from office. George Santos was charged with crimes without being impeached. So is Senator Menendez. There is no law or judicial precedent which has ever ruled that criminal or civil prosecution cannot occur without impeachment. The only such limitation we have is that the Justice Department has a policy, which is not law and which can be changed, stating that the President will not be prosecuted while in office. Although I believe Bill Clinton was prosecuted while in office. So I don’t think your argument has any leg to stand on, and I have very high confidence that the Federal Appeals Court will reject, and the SCOTUS will as well, probably by not even hearing the case. The only other possibility is that the Federal Appeals Court will rule that Trump’s interlocutory appeal has no standing, which will kick his case back to court and then Trump can try to raise the issue on appeal, where it will still fail. Dude, I get that you listened to some right wing media channel like NewsMax, and they’re telling you that this whole argument of Trump’s is next-level genius and perfect, but it’s not at all.

  47. You are correct on all counts: Sauer claims if there is no impeachment and conviction, ANY crime remotely related to official duties would be immune from prosecution forever. What he did is bastardize the interpretation of: ArtI.S3.C7.1 Overview of Impeachment Judgments which he cited and which says the exact opposite. Which is why the judges were NOT buying that ridiculous argument. But WCM will never admit he's wrong, if history is any guide.
