I'm sure ur familiar with SCOTUS, July 2024 decision, Trump v. United States. It was unique in that it established former presidents enjoy significant immunity from criminal prosecution for actions taken while in office. The ruling was comprised of 3 parts: absolute immunity for acts within a president's core constitutional power, presumptive immunity for other official acts, and no immunity for private conduct. It provides the correct amount of immunity for a sitting President .......... and provides protection from prosecution for acts taken while in office in pursuit of official acts. Amusing to bear witness on how this will be exploited by both the black and white cats. Are we seeing it now?

yeah, that's where we're at - more the pity (2023) Trump faced 31 felony counts pertaining to the willful retention of national defense information, the balance relating to alleged conspiracy, obstruction and false statements — the hazard was a prison sentence in the event of a conviction. Trump responded to the indictment by falsely conflating his case with a separate classified documents investigation concerning President Joe Biden. Though classified records were found in a Biden home and office, there has been no indication that the president, unlike Trump, sought to conceal them or knew they were there Trump was given an ‘off ramp’ from prosecution if he returned the sensitive, national security material – he declined. 2024 – Trump was found guilty of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records after prosecutors successfully convinced a jury he disguised hush money reimbursement as legal. Five years after Donald Trump sought to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential race, the final criminal case related to those efforts has been dismissed, meaning Trump faced no criminal trial over actions prosecutors once said were supported by strong evidence. With Georgia’s racketeering prosecution now closed and federal election-interference charges abandoned due to presidential immunity, Trump faced no remaining criminal exposure for actions that prosecutors once argued constituted a broad attempt to unlawfully stay in power.

As of last year, 88 percent of enrollment growth in the ACA marketplace – since 2020 (13 million) occurred in states Trump won in 2024! (KFF – KFF is the independent source for health policy research, polling and journalism) ACA was never designed to become Universal Health Care.

Alberta, where Canada’s doom will be decided
John Stone replied to paxamericana's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
.........all grist for the mill - yeah, they wuz black - escaping racism ....... they established some fairly large communities in northern Saskatchewan and Alberta A few thousand Mormons made the trek as well to escape persecution. However, the immigration in earnest began with the completion of the railway (CPR) - 1885. Hundreds of thousand Europeans (no slants - they were handy building the railway tho) made the journey - the CPR needed them to make a viable business supplying their farms. If not for the CPR, there is little doubt Manifest Destiny would have prevailed. 😁 However, the Superpower of the day was riding herd (BNA) .......... despite Kanada being a Nation. 😧 -
I'm not responsible for ur lack of comprehension. 😁 ......... one syllable works best for u, dude. 😄

Alberta, where Canada’s doom will be decided
John Stone replied to paxamericana's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
haha ............ Americans did not settle the prairie provinces - Rupert's Land - they were too busy killing indigenous 😄 Nah, the first so-called settlers were the Metis (squatters) - when the CPR went thru they caused some problems (Red River Rebellion / Northwest Rebellion). The Metis with the biggest dick was likely Louis Riel - feds hanged him - now he's revered. go figure. B.C. was the Province most coveted - largely populated by Americans. The gold rush had a lot to do with that. Brits negotiated the pan handle, despite Kanada supposedly becoming a Nation in 1867............. Trudeau fixed that up with the patriation and then, most Canadians would agree, fk'd things up with the Notwithstanding Clause - provided Canadians with an ersatz document. -
I assume ur talking about the so-called, ‘Weaponization Working Group, created Feb 5, 2025 by AG, Pam Bondi. The WWG was stood-up following an EO from Trump entitled, ‘Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government no less. The stated action is to review actions by federal and state officials that the ADMINISTRATION deemed politically motivated, including prosecutions, civil enforcement actions and other legal measures against TRUMP and his allies. The working group is tasked with identifying instances where government agencies may have pursued political objectives rather than legitimate justice goals and providing quarterly reports to the WHITE HOUSE (Trump). The Weaponization Working Group has faced criticism for being politically motivated itself. Ed Martin’s public statements and actions, including accusations against public officials without formal charges, have been described as breaking DOJ protocol and potentially undermining the credibility of investigations Critics argue that the group’s approach, including public shaming, risks politicizing the Justice Department further and blurring the line between legal review and political advocacy. Standing up the Weaponization Working Group (by Trump EO), gave the DOJ (Pam Bondi) cover to do exactly what Trump was accusing Biden of doing................. weaponize the DOJ ............ and she had a feast until 'bone spurs' fired her a$$ for not acting in a more expedient fashion in weaponizing her office. After a year, the group had failed to produce anything substantive despite focusing on issues that were a priority for the president OMG, man ............ u embarrass urself. 🙄

even fools are thought wise if they keep silent, and discerning if they hold their tongues,😁 Try to keep up, dude! 🙄

Where's ur proof. Assumptions carry no weight. Biden, as it turns out, correctly assumed the vindictiveness that was coming out of this administration .......... that said, I'm willing to bet even he is surprised at the degree, not to mention the Nation. DOJ follows Trump's directives. ............given on social media no less. Ur like beating an empty oil drum............ no substance within and just makes a lot of noise. sea shells?? Ur best source for evidence is likely this guy?😅 ............aka mind-worm Kennedy. 🙄

Trump in no angel??????????? ............... is that ur contribution to understatement? 🤪 ......... the rumor is Trump wants to cancel the midterm vote in designated states. double, double, toil and trouble. Daresay there will be no dearth of subpoenas Biden should have bowed out and provided an opportunity for a primary..........it was a conspiracy.......... so, fk them.

Moral people are poor, Rich people are neurotic
John Stone replied to August1991's topic in Moral & Ethical Issues
societal norms, enforced by laws (oversight), shouldn't be ignored wrt enforcing morality Trump moved with haste to dismantle the fed governments public integrity guardrails that he frequently tested during his first term but is now intent of removing entirely. A green light to grift and corruption. -
haha............ on the other hand, Trump's C.V. is stellar😄🤪 Falsifying Business Records Mishandling of national security documents Attempting to overturn 2020 presidential election Racketeering to overturn the 2020 U.S. presidential election in Georgia ............. as an aside liable for sexual abuse twice impeached .............. the 2024 election saved his fat a$$. ........ he was done like dinner, stick a fork in him!
