I think conservatives dislike Joe. We think he has displayed cognitive decline and he is corrupt. But it doesn't come close to the same intensity of those against Trump. On the flip side, progressives have UNBRIDLED INTENSE HATRED for Trump. If we believe the rhetoric coming from the left, Trump is without question the most heinous, vicious dictator that the world has ever seen.

By your standards, you must think the police in Canada's largest city are bigots too. https://www.tps.ca/organizational-chart/specialized-operations-command/detective-operations/investigative-services/homicide/most-wanted/ There are countless disruptions all over the Western world by pro-Palestinian supporters. Who knows how many are actual Palestinians but without question there must be some. By comparison, how many disruptions are caused by Ukrainian refugees? Why is that?

I also said Letitia James campaigned on getting Trump and you didn't address that. I find it curious. She talks about the usual stuff, too many black and brown people in jail (because they committed crimes!) but she wants THOSE criminals back out on the street. But by golly, she is going to GET TRUMP! And she did.

More of the great Alvin Bragg's record on prosecutions: In January last year, Bragg reduced armed robbery charges to a misdemeanor for an ex-convict who threatened a drugstore owner with a knife. Last summer, Bragg freed a 16-year-old suspect who was allegedly filmed beating a New York City police officer. While Bragg has gone soft on violent criminals, the Manhattan D.A. tried to throw the book at a bodega owner who stabbed an ex-convict in a clear act of self-defense caught on tape. Bragg initially sought to charge then-61-year-old Jose Alba with second-degree murder and sent the defendant to Riker’s Island for five days. The case was eventually dropped following public outcry, and Alba has since moved to the Dominican Republic. According to The New York Times, major crime spiked 22 percent during Bragg’s first year. Bragg’s tenure has resulted in a city of rampant lawlessness overseen by a prosecutor laser-focused on political prosecutions. Many New Yorkers are thrilled about this Trump conviction as their city becomes more unsafe under these lefty prosecutors. Go figure.

https://thefederalist.com/2023/03/21/politico-jumps-to-make-a-folk-hero-out-of-left-wing-prosecutor-targeting-trump/ When campaigning for one of the highest-profile prosecutor offices in the country, Bragg, a former federal prosecutor, pointed to his past pursuit of Trump’s prosecution as a primary pillar of his resume. “Bragg often reminded voters on the campaign trail that he helped sue the Trump administration ‘more than a hundred times’ as a deputy in the New York state attorney general’s office,” Reuters reported in 2021. Bragg’s own prominent supporters amplified the attorney’s ability to pursue Trump in court as a reason to vote for him. Bragg also ran for his current office with heavy financial support from left-wing billionaire financier George Soros. A super PAC backed by Soros, Color of Change, pledged to bankroll Bragg’s campaign with a seven-figure sum in the spring of 2021. Soon after the cash infusion, the committee pulled back $500,000 of the donation when Bragg faced allegations of sexual misconduct. While Bragg pursues Trump’s arrest, the district attorney has unleashed violent criminals on New York City streets by refusing to seek jail time for robbery, assault, and gun possession cases. In a Wall Street Journal op-ed last year, Soros admitted to backing candidates who promised to be soft on crime, branded as “reform prosecutors.” Bragg has held up to the pledge. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/letitia-james-vowed-to-target-trump-promise-kept/ar-BB1iRzUz New York Attorney General Letitia James had promised for years during her campaign to challenge and prosecute former President Donald Trump.

So far, Hunter is doing very well. The presidents son was rather delinquent in paying his fair share of taxes..no big deal, they slow walk most of the charges against and allow the statute of limitations to run out. Lying on the gun application form, a felony, so far no real penalty for that either.

You guys are the same people that scream that there are too many black and brown people in jail because of bias in the justice system and in juries. But in the case of Trump, where they turn a misdemeanor (statute of limitations passed) into a felony through what is often described as a 'novel interpretation' of the law, you guys see nothing wrong with that. Hillary just got a small fine for her campaign finance violation from the FEC. The FEC chose not to fine Trump, instead various state prosecutors literally campaigned on getting him, and they did.

Trump's team was in negotiations about the documents although in my humble opinion he should have just returned them as he surely should have known that he would be treated differently than Biden. Robert Hur did not charge Biden because he felt the president was too 'elderly'. And the White House was critical of that assessment by Hur even though their man got off with no repercussions. Just as Hillary committed a felony...and was once again let off. They didn't want this case to interfere in the election. Gosh, no double standard there!

What you neglected to mention about Hunter is what the DOJ tried to slip through the system, his unprecedented sweetheart deal. That judge stated, she had never seen anything like it before. With a different judge, or certainly a Democrat judge, that deal would certainly have gone through. In this upcoming trial, Hunter is facing the same DOJ that tried to coddle him before.

If Trump had decided not to run in 2024, this case and all the others would likely never have been brought forward in the first place. We clearly rely on different news sources, yours say that Trump is totally corrupt and worse, the sources I rely on say all of this is unprecedented(it clearly is) and the justice system is literally making mountains out of molehills. If the Republicans can overcome this lawfare and the inevitable election night 'shenanigans', don't be surprised if they seek payback.

This is a really good documentary about what can or will happen to many cities in North America. It's about Hamtramck Michigan which is now a Muslim majority city with an entirely Muslim city council. So what happens when Islam meets liberal lgtb+ activists? In this case, it seems like the lgtb+ side is meekly backing down. It also points out a sort of alliance on some issues with Islam and Republicans and the inherent dangers of that. It's not a long video. I'm curious what you guys think?
