Well.. Jello ran for President from his basement and got 7 million more votes than Trump. I mean… your guy lost to Jello.

I know! You guys keep saying Joe Biden is feeble, yet he masterminded all that from his basement. Now that he has the DOJ, NSA and CIA under his thumb, you’re lucky Trump still exists. What were Trump’s words? Trump could have “big problems like we’ve never seen before.”

The point here is not whether the Founders of the US were Deists, Muslims or Christians. Many were Christians, of course. The point is that America was initially settled by Christians who came to America to flee religious persecution of OTHER CHRISTIANS. The Pilgrims in Massachusetts, or Penn’s Quakers who settled Pennsylvania… these were very religious Protestants who were persecuted by the state run Protestant Church of England. That is the precise reason why the Founders built a Constitutional wall separating church and state. And we should understand that this Wall exists to protect Christians as much as anyone. If the US government were to embrace Christianity as its state religion, how long until it starts discriminating against your particular church? If the US allows teachers to lead prayer in classrooms, what happens when it’s not the Bible used in your church?

I'll just stop right there and say BS, because evangelicals voted like mad for Trump and the Trumpistas in the PRIMARIES. It's not true that there are only two parties, because each party has primaries and big changes are made by how people vote in the primaries. As for this: "Democrats lean more to Socialism, progressivism (LGBTQ stuff taught in schools, trans people rights to use women's washrooms, etc., open borders, climate change radicalism, and the big thing, abortion, which is killing millions of unborn babies. " Hmm... So Jesus believed in Capitalism? Jesus would have stoned Lesbians? That's really an interesting thing: LESBIANISM is SUPER ANTI-CHRISTIAN... when Lesbianism isn't mentioned a single time in the Bible. ALL THOSE SINS, and Christians are focused on a "sin" that doesn't even appear in the Bible. I don't think transgenderism appears a single time either. So is this alleged "Christianity" really based on the Holy Bible and the teachings of Jesus, or is it really based on bigotry and hate? And Christians think "Socialism" is a sin, and they reject the teachings of Christ where he repeatedly says that wealth is good because it lets you help the poor, that wealthy people cannot enter heaven, that wealth belongs to Caesar, etc., etc. Yah... those "Christians" are really into the literal word-for-word teaching of the Scriptures. I already mentioned that Christ and his family were immigrants, and denied a room at the Inn so Mary had to give birth in a barn. The Bible doesn't teach us to close our borders, it tells us to open them. Sorry, it just plain does. But if you believe in a religion that says the Bible is sinful, I suppose that's your choice, but I think you should rename your religion to what it really is.

But you've got a hell of a lot of wind, don't you?

Let me be clear that I am referring to American Evangelical Christianity, which is absolutely a "pick and choose" religion. Did Jesus decry the sins of wealth? Absolutely he did. No question. Does the Bible repeatedly command followers to help the poor? Absolutely it does, no question. Does the Bible command followers to take in immigrants? Yes. Jesus, in fact, was an immigrant. Look at this this way: If we take the OPPOSITE of Evangelical Christianity, is that Satanism, or is it good? The opposite, in my view, is COMPASSIONATE towards others. LOVING towards others. GIVES AWAY WEALTH. DOES NOT JUDGE OTHERS. So I can only conclude that Evangelical Christianity in America is Satanism. It is the opposite of Christianity. Just this week, DeSantis and Abbot flew illegal immigrants to Massachusetts and Washington, and they've been sending buses of them there as well. That is something Satan would do, not Jesus. Adultery is a greater sin than homosexuality, because Adultery is one of the Ten Commandments. Why some Christians think there are only nine commandments, I don't understand, but ok, there are Nine if you're Christian, and gay sex isn't part of that unless you're married. And... ok, that makes no sense that PAUL, not Jesus, but PAUL's word is somehow more important that God Himself. But anyway... is adultery illegal in any state? Did one single Christian leader in America stop supporting Trump when yet more adultery was discovered? No. Somehow, the Nine Commandments written by the Lord Himself are less important than non-Commandments. A woman accused of adultery was brought before Jesus to be stoned to death. After all, the Ten Commandments say that adultery is a sin. The Bible commands death. What did Jesus do? He forgave her. He said that the first one without sin should be first to throw a stone. But Evangelical Christianity today is nothing like that at all. They are extremely forgiving of their own sins and extremely judgemental of sins which don't affect them. Where did Jesus tell you to pray? On television? On a street corner? On a gigantic altar in front of hundreds or thousands? Or alone, in private? Consider the Seven Deadly Sins of Christianity. (Note that homosexuality isn't one of them) Lust Gluttony Greed Sloth Wrath Envy Pride Donald Trump is a poster child of those seven sins, except, perhaps, Sloth. But the rest? Lust: Married three times. Cheated on all his wives. Gluttony: Well, look at him. Greed: Ask his relatives about why Donald managed to inherit all the money. Sloth: He refused to read his Presidential Daily Briefs. They had to be read to him in simplified form. Wrath: When somebody disagrees with the man, he unleashes hell upon them. No question the man is wrathful. Envy: When France had a military parade, Donald decided that America needed to have a bigger parade. Pride: He's definitely not humble, not by any means. When the US Treasury sent checks to American taxpayers, he put his own name on the checks, as if the money came from him. So it is clear that American Evangelicals support an anti-Christian man. I CHALLENGE YOU: Give me just ONE example of an Evangelical Christian leader standing up to American Big Business. Just one example. The only one I can think of? Businesses with policies that are compassionate and tolerant towards homosexuals. THAT is something evangelicals will gleefully attack! Compassion! But low pay? Pollution of the environment? Outsourcing US jobs to China? Making people work on Sunday? I challenge you to show me that.

You ought to learn how to read. Stop looking at everything as your team versus the other team. It's not football. In this case, the "Liberal" judge ruled in favor of the "conservative" CIA over the "Liberal" New York Times. The lawsuit was between the NY Times and the CIA. The Times wanted to obtain classified information from the CIA, on the basis that the President disclosed it. The CIA refused to confirm or deny the existence of the material. The Court held that the President's disclosure, via Twitter, had not declassified the material because no declassification protocol had been followed. To wit: "Declassification cannot occur unless designated officials follow specified procedures. Moreover, courts cannot “simply assume, over the well-documented and specific affidavits of the CIA to the contrary,” that disclosure is required simply because the information has already been made public." Footnote: "Executive order 13,526 established the detailed process through which secret information can be appropriately declassified." Fat Orange Man has claimed that as president, he had an "absolute right" of declassification. Courts have already ruled that this is not the case. And, frankly, if you gave a shit about the United States, you'd agree that the President cannot randomly and secretly declassify things to suit his personal whim. As President, he is the servant of the people and he is bound by oath to protect and defend the nation. There must be some logical or reasonable purpose for declassifying material, and protecting yourself from criminal prosecution is not one of those purposes. IOW, "I declassified it because it's my absolute right and I said so" is not good enough, any more than, "I launched the nuclear bombs because it's my absolute right and I said so" is.

Yet from his basement lair, Biden was able to secretly manipulate the outcomes of Presidential elections in six states so effectively that Trump’s army of Uber-lawyers couldn’t find a shred of evidence. THAT’S a badass! He’s 64 levels of 3D chess over your head, fascist. Sucks to be you, huh?

Are you a seven year old? You write like a lunatic.

So Christians can kill people, because the Ten Commandments don’t apply to Christians. And Christians can cheat on their wives and have homosexual relationships, because that’s all Old Testament. And Christians can be rich as they want, because Paul’s words matter more than Jesus’. Truly, I understand Evangelical Christianity: It is a religion for straight white sinful males. It preaches that it’s OK for them to sin, but it’s also ok for them to discriminate and hate people who are different because it’s convenient to do so. It is a Bullshit religion. If the Bible says you cannot do it, that’s ok, you can do it. But if it’s something you don’t do, then those “other people” are horrible sinners. That is a Bullshit religion. It is pick-and-choose and judge all you want on everybody else, because we decided that’s what the rules are. God’s words are completely meaningless whenever they are inconvenient. That is American Evangelical Christianity. White supremacy and discrimination in the name of a God who’s rules they defy far more than they obey.

A Federal judge already ruled against Trump on the “magic wand” declassification claim. IT IS ALREADY CASE LAW. The Federal Appeals court ruled, very reasonably, that the President can declassify material BUT needs to follow some established protocol in doing so. Which Orange Man did not do. According to the Court of Appeals in 2020, “declassification, even by the president, must follow established procedures.” https://cases.justia.com/federal/appellate-courts/ca2/18-2112/18-2112-2020-07-09.pdf So good luck with that dickhead’s claim that he can declassify documents using his magic wand. He was already told that he cannot.

It’s baking a cake. Here’s the thing: There are Ten Commandments, and believers of all Judeo-Christian faiths - Jew, Christian and Muslim - agree that those Ten Commandments are supreme AND they were written by the Lord. Much of the new and old testaments are not written by the Lord, but we all agree the Ten Commandments were. AND, the Bible calls for death for violating most, or perhaps all of the Ten Commandments. BUT, the religious right doesn’t give a damn about any of them, they only care about the Bible when it gives them the opportunity to hate someone. Do Christians work at Wal-Mart? Do they shop there? ABSOLUTELY. Is Wal-Mart open on Sundays? You bet! The Bible says the punishment is death. How comes THAT doesn’t matter at all, but two gay people matter? Has Donald Trump cheated on his wives over and over and over? You bet he has! All of them!! Many times. The Bible says the punishment is death. How comes THAT doesn’t matter at all, but dispensing the Pill to a 20 year-old woman does? Jesus in his own words preached against the evils of wealth. The Bible commands that we donate 15% of our fields to the poor. The Bible commands that we forgive all debts every seven years. And so the evangelicals oppose forgiving even a penny of college debt, they stand in favor of cutting taxes to the rich, and they worship preachers who fly in private jets. Oh, but two gay people are getting married! Let’s go wrap ourselves around the Bible all of a sudden. Yes, that is a false, un-Godly, non-Christian religion. It is outright satanic.

Acknowledging that homosexuals have the right to marry is not “forcing” anyone to agree with anything. There aren’t social issues which the liberals use to “force” anybody to do anything. But banning abortion certainly does force someone to do something. Yes, if you work as a county clerk you have to do your job. If you’re a doctor you have to do your job. You don’t get to discriminate as part of your job. Wah wah.

Yes, and Donald Trump is still a criminal who stole government documents and attempted to overthrow the government.

No, at the time the FBI took the stolen documents which he’d sworn under oath he’d already returned, the man was not President. The law is clear that the President does not get to keep any government property after his term expires.

A former President isn’t Commander in Chief. He’s a civilian.

You know what else we did in WW II? We executed spies who stole classified information.

That’s a pretty big FU to the 400,000 Americans who died in WW II, especially all those who died fighting Japan, who Russia fought for a whole three weeks, and that was after we dropped the a-bomb. I don’t think this has anything to do with the fact that Donald Trump is a criminal and needs to be prosecuted for his crimes.

I do not know what happened to the IT guy. What I understand is that after having an aide separate the work and personal emails, she told the ISP to delete all of her personal emails, and she gave the work emails to the Dept of State, as required, when she left office. When the email server thing became investigated, her ISP was served a subpoena, and the IT guy realized he hadn’t deleted the files back when he was told to, so he deleted the files right away. That was a violation of the law, and he should have faced consequences for doing that, but I don’t know if he did.

What American manufacturing might? The nation was in its 11th year of Depression. There were no airplane or battleship factories. They didn’t build themselves.

No, you are entirely incorrect. On September 7, 2022, PG&E asked customers not to charge electric cars during the peak use times of 4pm and 9pm. One day. Five hours. And as I said, no big deal, most car owners can simply plug in after 9pm or use programmable charging, which is better for the car anyway, and start charging around 3am. Heres the link, so you can see for yourself that’s the case. Please don’t be a MAGA. We all make mistakes sometimes and it’s ok to make mistakes. No need to reply about Hillary or Hunter’s laptop. https://www.pge.com/en_US/about-pge/media-newsroom/news-details.page?pageID=0e1c6f7d-c15a-45c7-af3a-c1e6e04ef4c7&ts=1663350218936

Screw up? America won WWII in four years. George Bush could even conquer Iraq or Afghanistan in twice that tIme, and they are piddling little third world countries.

False. The IT guy did all that. But I get it: Trump commits a crime, so you instantly reply with HILLARY!!! HUNTER BIDEN!!! Trump had four years to prosecute Hillary. And he got impeached for trying to create a way to attack Joe Biden. Trump was most powerful man in the world and he failed at it.

And lame IT guys like you are why I wind up fixing my laptop problems myself.

You see magic voodoo numbers that you can’t quote. Who told you that? Was it Q? You’re full of crap, dude. You’re certain you’re right but you never have a fact to back up anything you say. And you’re compliant is that Biden hasn’t balanced the Federal budget in his first year? All he did was slash it by 2/3. The last President to balance a budget was Clinton, and your buddy Bush undid that as soon as he was elected.
