"Why do so many of your critics have issues with falling out of windows or getting radiation poisoning?"3 points

Couldn't you just smell the liar? How many countries has the U.S. invaded, without any just cause, unilaterally and in a blatant violation of international law, to subjugate and/or annex? The three Baltic states Finland Poland Romania Czech Republic Hungary Afghanistan Lithuania (after declaring independence) Moldova Georgia Chechnya (after declaring independence) Georgia again (2008) Ukraine (2014-2022) Ukraine again (2022 - ) Are you counting, still? Is this USA? Check your glasses. There's a cause! Ai-ai so threatened! Pathetic, worthless excuses of a brutal, murderous psycho bent on capturing, controlling and complete subjugation of his victims. This is who and what you're trying to excuse and explain: nothing less.3 points

If he doesn’t win, he will be in jail for quite some time. If he wins, there will be a new constitutional crisis when he fires the guy prosecuting him and then pardons himself. Whether he wins or not is still 50/50, imo.3 points

The vote to impeach Yanukovych was unanimous. Because his Berkut killed 100s of peaceful protestors in Maidan. Duh. And also cause he reneged on his promise to sign a trade deal with the West and signed one with Putin instead after being BRIBED. I can tell you right now, Putin will LIE his ass off and Carlson won't call him on it. Which is why Putin is talking to Carlson. 🤮3 points

Because that is not legal, and The Dumb-Dumb Party, at Trump’s insistence just blocked legislation that they wrote which would do that. They also blocked additional border protection funding. You are complaining about a Republican-Party created “crisis” being used as an election plank. I am against illegal immigration and even excessive refugee immigration. But the government must use legal means to stop it, not dictatorship. Personally, I think the law should let law enforcement or a court ask for proof of legal residency in the U.S., and if you cannot reasonably prove you belong here (not on the spot); you should be put on a bus. I have no problem with that, but it must be legal.3 points

its an age old gag for "conservatism" in the US... that "conservatives" aren't conservative at all. they are just another vehicle for the richest of the population to get richer and a lot of it directly from tax payers. the gag goes like this... get people all riled up about some imaginary enemy ("social conservatism")... gays, "wokeness", immigrants, abortion. the issue doesn't really matter, it used to be something else, the actual issue can be switched on a dime. this works mostly with uneducated rural types. just keep repeating that they are in danger and they will believe it. now the center of the GOP support, the uneducated rural types are already pissed that they've missed the "american dream" economically because GOP policies mean they've been getting more poor for 40 years. they need someone to blame. get them to blame gays and immigrants! studies show that people who suffer more from black and white thinking lean "conservative". and so these people are targeted by the business status quo. Political Ideology and Black-and-White Thinking and then have a god like cult figure like Trump to push these people over the edge. a cult like figure that will attack the faceless evil. save the country from "wokeness". while only making them more and more... poor! Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (no Jobs there!) "under the Act individuals and pass-through entities like partnerships and S corporations would receive about $1.125 trillion in net benefits (i.e. net tax cuts offset by reduced healthcare subsidies) over 10 years, while corporations would receive around $320 billion in benefits. The CBO estimated that implementing the Act would add an estimated $2.289 trillion to the national debt over ten years" "Bloomberg News reported in January 2020 that the top six American banks saved more than $32 billion in taxes during the two years after enactment of the tax cut, while they reduced lending, cut jobs and increased distributions to shareholders." meanwhile, Democrats continue as always to support unions and working people. no one can point to ANY policy evidence that the GOP support working people. they only support business and promise "economic trickle down" except that that hasn't been working for 40 years. as a business owner here in Canada... Trudeau has not made it easy for me. because i control the corporation from which i make money, my effective tax rate went up from 8% to 11%. poor working stiffs have to pay a minimum of 17%! but i'm aware that the happiest societies are those where the wealth gap is smallest. Income Inequality Makes Whole Countries Less Happy and with that wealth inequality destroys democracies... because it leads to concentration of power.2 points

Supporting an allies' defense against an imperialist aggressor is not "advocating for war" it's understanding that there's already a war on and we need to pick a side.2 points

The admission by the Left that they would not talk to a World Leader capable of starting a major nuclear war is an admission of their warmongering. No one on the Left dares to bat an eye when journalists and politicians talk to Xi Jinping, despite him literally making concentration camps and being THE rival of the US. Russia bad. China good. This is preposterous. This foreign policy is extremely unproductive, as China will not be on our side towards Russia and vice versa. The Nazis allied themselves with their mortal enemies; the Communists, before WWII. Here we have the Russians and the Chinese who are allying themselves, because like the Nazi and the Communist Regimes, the West made it convenient for them to ally. Russia and China are supposed to be rivals. They have territorial conflicts. Now they are united, and we must thank Antony Blinken, Barak Obama, Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden for that mess.2 points

I listened to the opening arguments live, and they are night and day different in terms of clarity and efficacy, but I am deeply skeptical that this court is going make the plain judgment. They will 100% weasel out of it because it's a political hot potato and it's a highly political court.2 points

I'll be watching too. I have always liked Carlson...even when he was on CNN...and I want to know what Putin thinks. That's called "knowledge" and the accumulation there of. But check out the 2 Tweenkies here. They have no desire to hear anything that might contradict their firm belief that war is good...as long as its not them getting shot. I do hope Tucker asks Putin some uncomfortable questions...which I'm sure he will. The interview should shed some light on the blackout Comic-Boy's state media is feeding these lackeys.2 points
-
Will Tucker ask Putin anything useful at all, such as: 1) Why have you refused interviews with all the other American journalists who requested them? 2) Why are all of your political opponents in jail? 3) Why have you jailed so many Russian journalists? 4) Why are Russians jailed for opposing the Ukraine War?2 points

Tucker went form the most watched man on cable to a nobody posting on Twitter to a few thousand views practically overnight and now he's allowing himself to be used as a human megaphone by a vile despot in a desperate bid for relevance. You almost hate to see it.2 points

The US certainly exercises force, but I'm not sure you know what the word "aggressive" means. The US is active in world affairs. In the last 50 years it has often often played the role of peace maker or peace keeper or otherwise intervened in conflicts, often as part of a coalition. It has taken defensive action. It has taken retributive action. But it is not wantonly invading other countries. It is not conquering. It is not expanding. In short, it is involved in many conflicts, but it is not, as an aggressor, starting conflicts. The one very notable exception to this is W's invasion of Iraq. He definitely started that war--and without reasonable justification. It was entirely elective and is a huge black eye on the legitimacy of the US as force in the world for stability, freedom and peace. This doesn't mean that the military itself is perfect, or that I personally agree with all of the actions, objectives and aims of every intervention. But the US is not, generally, aggressive. And we certainly aren't trying to gobble up our weaker neighbors and steal their resources. You're welcome.2 points

"Does the President have the authority to grant “administrative relief” to undocumented Americans — i.e., to temporarily delay their deportation without granting them a permanent legal immigration status (such as a green card or citizenship)? This issue brief summarizes the constitutional, legal, and historical grounds for the president’s authority to grant administrative relief." And we've already seen Biden's interpretation of the President's role which is yet another reason to kick the hair sniffer to the curb. https://www.nilc.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/president-legal-authority-2014-08-20.pdf1 point

Nice that this posted as an Opinion post and not 'news' Likely because the columnist is spreading little b*llshits throughout. A news site is telling me that the ban is on misleading advertising.... It would be great for free speech if those who valued it actually paid attention to being honest. Never heard of this one before. Seems oddly opportunist since he ran for the Federal Liberals (?) and posted some pretty strong anti-Trump stuff. Ah well.1 point

It's an "and," not an "or." Yes, the people to stormed the capitol should be held responsible for their actions. And yes, incitement is, in some circumstances, a crime. And Trump should also be held accountable for what he did to cause the attack. There is a loooong history in Western legal tradition that apportions blame/responsibility among parties involved. Planners, directors, commanders and requestors of criminal acts or otherwise harmful acts are very often apportioned responsibility for their roles. It doesn't mean that the actors were mindless automatons, it means that they wouldn't have otherwise acted without the guidance or incitement to do so. For example, note that Enrique Tarrio (leader of the Proud Boys) was not even in D.C. on the day of the insurrection, but he has been held accountable for his role in planning and fomenting the attack. 22 years in prison. Trump absolutely caused the insurrection, from the big lie about the election to the the existential crisis he communicated to his followers. After swearing and oath of loyalty to the constitution, no less. He should be held accountable.1 point

Donald Trump has not been charged with incitement, although you agree that it’s a crime. Regarding Jan 6, Trump is facing four Federal charges: 1 count Conspiracy to defraud the United States The charge against Mr. Trump details the various methods he and co-conspirators used to try to overturn the results of the 2020 election. 2 counts Related to efforts to obstruct the vote certification proceedings Mr. Trump faces two charges involving the vote certification proceedings at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021: one of obstructing that process and one of conspiring to do so. 1 count Conspiracy to violate civil rights Related to Mr. Trump’s attempts to reverse election results in states with close elections in 2020.

Any time you have to say "what you really mean is...." you're doing so because you know that's not what they're saying but you can't argue with what they're saying so you have to make something up and pretend they said it. Something we've seen YOU do a few different ways. What i mean is what i said and here you go people, one of the loons shows up on queue not to have a rational discussion or deal with the actual points raised but to lie about what i said hoping that he'll score virtue points with the other lefties? I guess? I mean - who really knows why these fruitcakes behave like this.1 point

1. It's a cultural force, but it's not part of our public dialogue on such things. Sermons happen in private spaces or worship, mainly because there's no point in telling people their morality is inferior and they should just listen to what you think. 2. Why should I be careful? I try to be polite, but don't warn me or I will mock you. Satan leaves index cards with witty insults under my pillow.1 point

No it's not. It's faith. That's not true. If God himself came down from the heavens and said what's up I might change my tune. That's not true because you cannot reason someone out of a position they did not reason themselves into in the first place.1 point
