Why are you commenting on an old thread?

Because Russ asked me a question, and now I have a question for you:

Why are you commenting on an old thread? ;)

Very insightful.

What this article doesn’t discuss are the motives behind this fixation on Hillary. I think the answer is more obvious than we might think. Hannity cannot spin Trump’s antics to make them appear positive or, at the least, benign!

Yes, sir. Also, the GOP useful idiots and minions are united in their hatred of certain things that are represented by trigger words. They can literally be sent into fits of rage/anger via these "keywords," and "Hillary" is one of them.

How many times has the pattern in recent history where the Fox News bullshit machine manufactures, concocts, and spins totally fabricated conspiracy propaganda, and off they go to train the moron brigade who couldn't care less about facts and wouldn't be able to recognize a fact if it lived on their faces.

Conspiracy Keywords:

* Monica
* Obama-Muslim
* Hillary
* Benghazi
* Emails
* Ukraine, making it's debut recently

If Biden is the nominee, "Ukraine" will supplant "Benghazi" as the keyword to cue a bunch of programmed Pavlov's dogs foaming at the mouth spewing the GOP manufactured conspiracy bullshit of this election season. #SSDD

Under the Federal Whistleblower guidelines, if the whistleblower’s complaint was rejected by the inspector general, the Director of the DNI was required to provide the whistleblower with instructions on how they could take their complaint directly to Congress. The inspector general determined that the complaint was justified and deemed it as an “urgent need” to be reviewed by Congressional Intelligence committees, which normally would mean the Director need not worry about telling the whistleblower how to contact the committees directly.

Yep. And the ADNI kicks it up to the DOJ who promptly informs the POTUS. Now the ICIG, Michael Atkinson... another Trump appointee following the "letter of the law"... will most likely also be thrown under the bus by a bullying Trump and the propaganda machine at Fox and their useful idiots.

How long do you think it will take before Trump identifies the whistleblower by name?

Two to three days... give or take. The whistleblower will be thrown under the bus, raked over the coals by the GOP and their useful idiots for not marching in lockstep. This will likely lead to a breakdown in government procedures wherein whistleblowers will follow the track of Edward Snowden and not follow procedures; they'll just leak to the press, thus creating additional national security issues for the United States... all because Trump isn't interested in protecting America but interested in protecting his own ass.

Will the press allow Trump to get away with the utterly asinine idea that he was pushing Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden (manufacture dirt) because he was concerned with "foreign corruption"? Let's talk about foreign corruption; Trump wasn't at all interested in stopping foreign corruption... he wanted to enlist Ukraine to invent kompromat on Biden. #SSDD

There's more to this too. It'll all be leaked because the procedure to blow the whistle is now shattered.

It appears my thoughts are going in a million directions. Wine! :)

The inspector general determined that the complaint was justified and deemed it as an “urgent need” to be reviewed by Congressional Intelligence committees, which normally would mean the Director need not worry about telling the whistleblower how to contact the committees directly.

In the inspector general’s second letter to the House’s Intelligence Committee, he states that not only did the Director refuse to follow his department’s guidelines for forwarding the complaint on to Congress, he also ignored what his responsibilities were if the complaint was rejected! The person who came forward to file the whistleblower complaint was being doubly screwed!

How long do you think it will take before Trump identifies the whistleblower by name?

Fox News host Sean Hannity appears to have a talking point almost as popular as President Donald Trump: former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Put into percentages, that means Hannity himself talked about Clinton on 86 percent of his program's episodes since Trump's inauguration. In total, the former Democratic presidential candidate was talked about during 91 percent of Hannity's shows since Trump officially took office.

What this article doesn’t discuss are the motives behind this fixation on Hillary. I think the answer is more obvious than we might think. Hannity cannot spin Trump’s antics to make them appear positive or, at the least, benign!

Hillary is the GOP’s “go to” for getting their supporters worked up to the point that they’ll blindly oppose anything they say Clinton supports. It doesn’t matter if what Hannity says, his fans will be foaming at the mouth angry at Hillary and won’t notice that Hannity failed to mention any of the embarrassing things that Trump had been doing that day! If Trump had any real accomplishments to boast about, they wouldn’t need to focus on Hillary quite as much.

In this episode .@JoshKovensky explains the absurdity of this central claim abt Biden. The prosecutor in question wasn't investigating Hunter Biden or even the gas company he was on the board of at the time this happened. An investigation of the company had been closed before the prosecutor in question even got into power. And the whole push to get rid of him, that was US, EU, intl orgs was basically that he'd laid off investigations and purged the at least cleaner investigators who came in after Yanukovych was overthrown. If anything canning the prosecutor in question was going to mean more investigations not fewer. Josh worked at a journo in Ukraine before coming to @TPM so he has great insight on this. Give this episode a listen.

See ya'all bright and early in the morning..

Hopefully ya'all will have some nice new bullshit to spew..

Don't let me down.. :D

Democrats hysteria to impeach will be determined by their confidence (or lack thereof) of being able to beat President Trump at the ballot box.. :D

Yep..

And Democrats just GUARANTEED that President Trump will win re-election and Democrats will lose the House..

Dumbocrats didn't learn from history.. Now it's going to come back and bite them on the ass...

Remember what happened to the GOP when they tried to impeach Clinton..

Here.. Let me help ya with ya'all's response...

"Well.. er... uh... THAT'S different!!"

Of course it's different.. It's ALWAYS different.. :eyeroll:

Now that HHPTDS suffering Weigantians will have something to "crow" about (kinda like their Russia Collusion "crowing), I predict that we'll be seeing a LOT of Weigantians who's presence here has been either sporadic or non-existent.

So, that's 2 predictions today.. Let's see how I fair in the coming days.. :D

Oops. My voice recognition software did that... one of it's factual errors.

I know, right!?

Yes, sir, and we're supposed to believe all those changing reasons that Trump is confessing after his initial denials and that suddenly Trump is concerned about "foreign corruption"!?

What a load of BS on Trump's part.

It is great that when you ask a Republican what their stance is on a particular subject, they have to check their Twitter feed or they won’t be able to answer.

The sheeple have to get their marching orders from Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, and Fucker Carlson. #Pathetic

Facts to support??

None?? Figures..

Repeat: Hunter Biden’s company had already been cleared by the Ukrainians when Joe Biden called for the prosecutor’s resignation!

Not factually accurate..

This reminds me of the Republicans’ rehashing of Benghazi for 7 investigations

Not even close..

This is reminiscent of you morons going on and on for TWO YEARS about Russia collusion and when the report was finally released it TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY EXONERATED President Trump..

This is going to end just the same.. :D

Stop equating Biden's actions with Trump's - they are opposite ends of the spectrum, any spectrum.

Repeat: Hunter Biden’s company had already been cleared by the Ukrainians when Joe Biden called for the prosecutor’s resignation!

This reminds me of the Republicans’ rehashing of Benghazi for 7 investigations after the first investigation cleared Hillary Clinton of any wrong doing in her handling of that tragedy! They know that the truth is that there is nothing to this story — it did not make waves when it was brand new, but they are going to continue to lie and say otherwise until Trump decides to attack something else.

It is great that when you ask a Republican what their stance is on a particular subject, they have to check their Twitter feed or they won’t be able to answer.

Intentions don't matter..

Biden EXTORTED the Ukrainians to do Odumbo's bidding..

That is EXACTLY what ya'all are accusing President Trump of..

So, basically you are PERFECTLY OK with the US government issuing threats to sovereign governments and extorting foreign governments to the will of the US Government, but ONLY as long as it's a DEMOCRAT in charge..

You don't find that the least bit hypocritical???

One thing is certain, however.

Trump can't win without seeking help from a foreign government.

Cracks in the dam...

No one was buying the "I'll give you the transcript" from Blotus, not after Sharpiegate and Bill Barr's lying about the Mueller Rept. Some Repubs were spinning but Blotus trying to get a foreign country to manufacture dirt about Joe Biden in exchange for money may finally be the bridge too far.

But when Joe Biden subsequently conveyed a threat from the Obama administration to withhold $1 billion in loan guarantees to Ukraine unless the chief prosecutor was dismissed, his intervention made it more rather than less likely that the oligarch who paid his son would be subject to prosecution for corruption.

To rephrase, Biden's efforts with Ukraine and their loan guarantees were done not only on behalf of the Obama/Biden administration but also on behalf of the international community and Ukraine reformers AND his efforts made it MORE LIKELY that the company paying Hunter Biden would be investigated for corruption.

Stop calling Biden corrupt and stop perpetuating Trump's lies about this.

I posted a direct quote from your link..

If it says something you don't like, well.. I dunno what to tell ya..

Irregardless of all that, the fact is, this is simply another Kavanaugh-esque bullshit exercise.. But THIS time it's going to blow back on Democrats "electable" candidate..

One thing is certain, however.

Democrats are SCARED SHITLESS to taking on President Trump at the ballot box..

Hence all the hysterical spewage about impeachment..

I'm done with you on this issue.

I highly doubt that. :D

Trump was about to release a (probably redacted) transcript of a conversation that he had with the Ukrainian president. I believe that the whistleblower had no option but to reply in person.

Exactly right! You just know they were going to try and "Bill Barr" the transcipt of the conversations like they did the Mueller Report, which doesn't mince words.

This time, they're throwing out the term "no quid pro quo" in the same manner they threw out the term "no collusion" and claiming there is no "underlying crime." Sound familiar? They're trying to push the false narrative that if Trump didn't specifically proffer a "quid pro quo" or commit an "underlying crime" that he's innocent of any wrongdoing. This is obviously a #SSDD scenario and completely nonsensical.

Welcome to the President of the United States and his thugs working with a foreign government to disparage his political rival -- the sequel -- in the very midst of denying that his campaign colluded with another foreign government in 2016.

Obviously, Trump's pattern is by now quite obvious:

* Begin by declaring everything is "fake news" and deny.

* As the facts that implicate you emerge, move the goal posts and claim that even if you did what you claimed you didn't do... it's okay anyway.

* Send out your nutty personal lawyer to begin the public confessional of what you know you've done.

* Go in front of Lester Holt or __________ <--- [insert reporter's name here] and outright confess what you earlier denied.

* Lie. Obfuscate. Obstruct.

* Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

Actually, Michale, my link confirms that the prosecutor was not after the company Hunter Biden was advising; this prosecutor general was not going after corruption, in general.

The link I provided confirms that Biden's efforts made it more, not less, likely that the company Hunter Biden worked for would be investigated.

Maybe you should read the article again and focus on the investigative journalism, including links within.

I'm done with you on this issue.

Trump's an inveterate liar.

Of course you would say that...

But the FACTS say something completely different..

This will all come out when President Trump presents all the facts during the House's impeachment...

Biden's campaign is toast... It's that simple..

Did you even read the rest of the article?

Biden is innocent.

Trump's an inveterate liar.

From your OWN link..

As I reported at the time, the truth is not that hard to determine. There is little doubt that Biden’s son Hunter did benefit from his father’s position by securing a spot on the board of a Ukrainian natural gas company in 2014, a legal but ethically dubious move. But when Joe Biden subsequently conveyed a threat from the Obama administration to withhold $1 billion in loan guarantees to Ukraine unless the chief prosecutor was dismissed, his intervention made it more rather than less likely that the oligarch who paid his son would be subject to prosecution for corruption.

Your own link confirms that Biden's son DID benefit from Joe Biden's VP status..

And your own link CONFIRMS that VP Biden threatened to withhold funds unless the prosecutor who was after Hunter Biden was fired..

So, basically your link confirms everything I have said today....

Who is "Senator Biden"??

I'll check out your link.. A few moments, please...

I'll have to slap Blathy around some more.. :D

Because I have no claim.

And yet, you said Meanwhile, the whistleblower has decided (without specific legal protections) to talk to the intelligence committee. We've got the ball.

That's a claim.

Where are your facts to support that claim..

Or you can just admit you don't have any facts, that yer spewing just wishful thinking..

I mean.. I already know that's the case..

What I do know is that Trump & company have been all over the map with this and back in the last 48 hours. They keep confirming facts, then backpedaling.

And there is ANOTHER claim..

Do you have ANY facts to prove THIS claim??

Any facts at all???

Well, that's as clear as mud and not what I meant at all.

So to clarify:
* Announcement today
* "Formal" impeachment inquiry tomorrow... meaning the "formal charge."

Unless something changes, which wouldn't surprise me because -- go figure -- things change. :)

What this guy has to say, will be interesting.

Here is a piece form the Intercept detailing the facts of the Ukraine affair, urging reporters, including from the NYTimes not to help Trump spread lies.

Hopefully, Chris will also write about Trump's lie about this issue and his attempts to smear Senator Biden.

https://theintercept.com/2019/09/22/reporters-stop-helping-donald-trump-spread-lies-joe-biden-ukraine/

You still haven't give me ANY facts that prove your claim...

Why is that??

Which "lie" is that, Liz???

But it IS interesting isn't.

One of ya'all said that Democrats don't attack other Democrats.

I guess that guy was full of kaa-kaa eh? :D

In other words, yer gonna stall and equivocate until such time as Pelosi gives you your marching orders on what exactly to think..

That's my answer.. Thank you..

Not gonna. It's not time, yet.

That's just one reason why she won't be the nominee.

Still haven't answered my question, Blathy..

Have you changed your mind and NOW support impeachment??

Yes or no??

And yet, you STILL don't have a SINGLE fact that proves this, do you..

Well, whatever you have to tell yourself to sleep at night.. :eyeroll:

Tomorrow sounds like the day.

Trump was about to release a (probably redacted) transcript of a conversation that he had with the Ukrainian president. I believe that the whistleblower had no option but to reply in person.

I'm glad to see both intel committees in on this.

Thank you.. I accept your concession..

Now, substantiate the rest of your 'Ukraine' comments not associated with what Chris Murphy said.

Liz, I am not going to spend the time substantiating it all one by one. And I don't think anyone else wants even MORE postings from me, eh?? :D

If you have a fact that I have relayed and is, in fact, a fact and not an opinion and you believe said fact is not factually accurate then tell me and provide your facts that prove my facts are in error..

Using this method, we BOTH can learn.. :D

Okay, I must have missed that one.

Now, substantiate the rest of your 'Ukraine' comments not associated with what Chris Murphy said.

Impeachment isn't an "option". Beginning an impeachment inquiry is. That has already been done.

I am hearing Speaker Pelosi will endorse a "formal" impeachment inquiry. When? I'm hearing tomorrow.

Meanwhile, the whistleblower has decided (without specific legal protections) to talk to the intelligence committee. We've got the ball.

Adam Schiff
@RepAdamSchiff

We have been informed by the whistleblower’s counsel that their client would like to speak to our committee and has requested guidance from the Acting DNI as to how to do so.

We‘re in touch with counsel and look forward to the whistleblower’s testimony as soon as this week.

1:29 PM · Sep 24, 2019·Twitter for iPad

And now I'm hearing the Senate Intel wants a closed bipartisan meeting with the whistleblower on Friday too.

Thereby PROVING I have been factually accurate all along.. They are nothing but Party slaves who don't have a single independent thought..

:D

Cuz it worked out SO WELL for Republicans when the impeached Clinton... :D

Just when you think that Democrats can't be ANY more stoopid.. They surprise you... :D

Yea.. That's what Dims said with the Kavanaugh bullshit.

Even if you HAD facts to support your claims.

Which, of course, you do not..

What do YOU think.. Is it time to impeach President Trump???

Simple yes or no will suffice..

Not factually accurate..

Meanwhile, the whistleblower has decided (without specific legal protections) to talk to the intelligence committee. We've got the ball.

Yea.. That's what Dims said with the Kavanaugh bullshit..

That's what Dims said with the Russia Collusion bullshit.

That's what Dims said with the NOAA/DORIAN bullshit..

Notice the common denominator??

Bullshit.. All Dims ever have is bullshit.. :D

Pelosi only has to wave her magic hand over the whole thing. Trump's been daring her to do it, figuring that an impeachment would rally republicants around him, as happened to Clinton during his impeachment.

Meanwhile, the whistleblower has decided (without specific legal protections) to talk to the intelligence committee. We've got the ball.

I predict that all of those Weigantians who before said that impeachment wasn't an option and SHOULD NOT be done...

They are ALL going to change their minds and say NOW is the time to impeach..

And the fact that it happened at the EXACT SAME TIME that Pelosi changed HER mind is completely coincidental... :eyeroll:

Once again.. I prove that those people are nothing but Party slaves, and simply exist to believe whatever their Party elders TELLS them to believe..

We'll see over the next few days if my prediction is accurate...

:D

Yea.. Democrats *ALSO* said that the latest bullshit Kavanaugh accusations were ALSO impeachable..

We all know how THAT collapsed like a house of cards...

But hay, Dumbocrats..

If it's impeachable, then go ahead and IMPEACH!!

Quit yammering about it and DO IT!!!

"My god, what a bunch of pussies..."
-Strannix, UNDER SIEGE

Greta Thunberg is angry. Lots of people are angry. But anger without doing something other than protesting and making speeches won’t protect the environment or do much else other than produce more anger.

Aye, there's the rub...

These days, activists think that all they need to do is be angry and they will get their way...

When that doesn't work, they graduate to violence..

Today's Greta Thrunbergs are tomorrow's El Paso WalMart shooters...

The answer, of course, is HELL NO!!!!

One only has to ask the question here to know...

Amongst the Trump haters here, I would bet only 2, MAYBE 3 would answer in the affirmative....

So predictable...

Just how inspiring or even persuasive you find Greta’s speeches and overall activism likely depends on where you stand on the political spectrum. There are plenty of politicians and regular voters claiming to be inspired by her words and passion. There are also lots of observers expressing general alarm at what they see as an indoctrinated child being coerced by adults to make their political arguments with her youth as a shield from any criticism.

Greta whatever is very reminiscent of Hitler's use of children for Propaganda purposes..

HITLER YOUTH and LEAGUE OF GERMAN GIRLS were children's group that were propaganda gold mine's for Nazi Propaganda..

This Greta girl gives of huge vibes of similar indoctrination...

Once again, Democrats are going to get their asses handed to them by FACTS and REALITY...

"These FACTS are not in dispute, Mr President!!!"
-Klingon Ambassador, STAR TREK VI

"I told Zelensky that he should not insert himself or his government into American politics. I cautioned him that complying with the demands of the President's campaign representatives to investigate a political rival of the President would gravely damage the U.S.-Ukraine relationship. There are few things that Republicans and Democrats agree on in Washington these days, and support for Ukraine is one of them,"

That was INDEED a statement from Democrat Chris Murphy...

So, I have substantiated at least ONE of my facts.

Do you have any facts to support that Chris Murphy did NOT say that??

I don't think you do..

And here we are.. :D

For example.....?????

Do you have any FACTS to support your claim??

I am guessing.. NOT :D

AWESOME!!!!

Knocked it out of the PARK!!!!!

All of your recent comments about Ukraine are not factual.

Until Democrats acknowledge the.. wait for it... FACTS, then they will forever be known as the RACIST Party...

I await your rebuttal of my facts with facts of your own...

The Minneapolis media have paid fleeting attention to these videos; the mainstream national media, almost none (CNN blamed the attacks on police understaffing and ignored the evident racial hatred that was the most salient aspect of the attacks). This year’s installments of the usual flash mob rampages on Chicago’s Magnificent Mile and in Baltimore’s Inner Harbor have also been ignored. If the race of perpetrators and victims in any of these incidents were reversed, there would be a universal uproar, with public figures across the board denouncing “white supremacist” violence and calling for a national reckoning regarding white racism. But because the violence does not fit the standard narrative about American race relations, it is kept carefully off stage.

And the FACTS just keep on coming...

Ya'all think that "white supremacy" is a problem here in the US, totally IGNORING the... there's that word again... FACT that the actual reality says something completely different..

Yet key parts of the intersectional narrative are not born out by data. It is now a standard trope, implanted in freshmen summer reading lists through the works of Ta-Nehesi Coates and others, that whites pose a severe, if not mortal, threat to blacks. That may have once been true, but it is no longer so today. Just this month, the Bureau of Justice Statistics released its 2018 survey of criminal victimization. According to the study, there were 593,598 interracial violent victimizations (excluding homicide) between blacks and whites last year, including white-on-black and black-on-white attacks. Blacks committed 537,204 of those interracial felonies, or 90 percent, and whites committed 56,394 of them, or less than 10 percent. That ratio is becoming more skewed, despite the Democratic claim of Trump-inspired white violence. In 2012-13, blacks committed 85 percent of all interracial victimizations between blacks and whites; whites committed 15 percent. From 2015 to 2018, the total number of white victims and the incidence of white victimization have grown as well.

Blacks are also overrepresented among perpetrators of hate crimes—by 50 percent—according to the most recent Justice Department data from 2017; whites are underrepresented by 24 percent. This is particularly true for anti-gay and anti-Semitic hate crimes.

And then there are the FACTS...

These are bona fide and inarguable FACTS, Liz....

Attacking the messenger, claiming that the messenger does not have any credibility does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to change the factual and accurate nature of the facts..

Those who attack the messenger are simply confirming the validity of the facts and the inability to refute them..

By today's Democrat Party standards, Obama would be a FLAMING racist..

FACT...

At the same time, the allowable explanations for racial disparities have shrunk to one: that self-same racism. During this month’s debate, Joe Biden tried to suggest that some poor parents could benefit from instruction regarding optimal child-rearing practices: “We [should] bring social workers into homes of parents to help them deal with how to raise their children. It’s not that they don’t want to help, they don’t want — they don’t know quite what to do,” he said. Biden was invoking one of the Obama administration’s key anti-poverty initiatives. Home-visiting programs pair nurses and other social service workers with pregnant women and new mothers to teach them parenting skills. Progressive activists have demanded and won hundreds of millions of federal dollars for such programs, yet pundits have denounced Biden’s “horrifyingly racist answer,” in the words of The Intercept, and called for him to pull out of the presidential primary because of it. Buttigieg sniffed that Biden’s statement was “well-intentioned” but “bad,” since it ignored the fact that “racial inequity” in this country was “put into place on purpose.”

Once again, the FACTS don't lie...

A Platform of Urban Decline

Democratic presidential candidates believe America is racist, yet they ignore the evidence on crime and ensure that racial disparities persist.
https://www.city-journal.org/democratic-candidates-racism-crime

Once again, the Democrats, the Party of the KKK and racism, show that their entire platform is still steeped in racism..

Ya see, now THIS is really funny...

Because I seem to recall somebody around here claiming that Democrats are above this sort of thing?

That they don't attack other Democrats. That Democrats are BETTER then that...

And here we see that said somebody is FULL OF SHIT...

Uncanny.. AGAIN.. :D

Just the facts.. :D

But hay, feel free to step up.. :D

Pick a comment and lets get down into the weeds with it.. :D

"I can do this all day!!"
-Captain America

Of course the have credibility. Just not amongst those who are enslaved by ideology..

I mean, let's look at reality..

Of all the times ya'all said, "THIS will be the one that takes down Trump!!!" (at least several hundred times..) ya'all have been CONSISTENTLY wrong... And *I* have been factually accurate... CONSISTENTLY..

So, if you use a NORMAL and RATIONAL measure of credibility, IE track record, it's CLEAR who has the more credibility and who has none when it comes to President Trump.

This is the reality..

even if they are not consistently debunked by the author of this site.

And there is a reason for that.. :D

But hay, feel free to step up.. :D

Where did ya go???

Damn!! The facts scared away ANOTHER one.. :(

Sherikia Hawkins, 38, city clerk for the city of Southfield, was arrested Monday after the Oakland County Clerk’s office noticed discrepancies in voter counts while certifying absentee ballots from Southfield. State police investigated and found that records had been altered so that nearly 200 voter files were improperly listed as invalid.

Yea.. Democrats go on and on about the GOP in NC..

Of course they ignore it when their own cheats in an election..

They actually HONOR the moron.. :eyeroll:

Beep! Beep!

Once again, the question just HAS to be asked..

You would think that Democrats, after getting their asses handed to them time and time and time and time again..

That they would actually LEARN something from it?

Wouldn't ya think??

Then, of course, it would leak.

Yep..

As I have said time and again.. Ya'all Trump/America haters are NOTHING if not predictable..

Change the name "Hunter Biden" to "Donald Trump Jr" and I am sure you can answer your own question.. :D

See.. How easy was that, eh! :D

There are no American criminal charges pending against him and no American criminal investigation.

In FACT, Ukraine’s current prosecutor, Yuriy Lutsenko, was quoted by Bloomberg News in May as saying he had no evidence of wrongdoing by Biden or his son.

OF COURSE he doesn't.. THAT is why the previous GP was fired and a puppet put in his place.

DUH...

Did you not have yer Wheaties this morning, JM???

And if we were talking about American criminal charges you would have a point.. But we're not, so you don't..

"Yer going to see Biden's campaign fall apart relatively soon..."

Dream on!

Yea?? Howz Joe's numbers been lately??

The decline is going to accelerate... :D

You don't think so??

Want to put a wager on that??

No?? Of course you don't. :D

"It can't help but stick to Biden.. Add to that the fact that his son Hunter is very likely going to prison.."

In FACT, Ukraine’s current prosecutor, Yuriy Lutsenko, was quoted by Bloomberg News in May as saying he had no evidence of wrongdoing by Biden or his son.

"It can't help but stick to Biden.. Add to that the fact that his son Hunter is very likely going to prison.."

For what specific charge?

There are no American criminal charges pending against him and no American criminal investigation.

There are also no Ukrainian criminal charges pending and the Ukrainian government has no appetite for any Ukrainian government investigation.

So how exactly is he going to prison???

"Yer going to see Biden's campaign fall apart relatively soon..."

Dream on!

Also, turns out, there is a heinous little swamp scandal involving Mr. Biden and some apparently crooked deal his son had with a Ukrainian company in which it appears Mr. Biden used diplomatic pressure to protect or promote his son’s business interests.

Once again..

ALL Dumbocrats have are two "anonymous sources" one who actually ADMITS that the accusation is 3rd hand hearsay...

And the facts??

Well, the facts have NAMED, ID'ed and ON THE RECORD sources, including none other than Joe Biden himself BRAGGING about how he extorted the Ukraine government to fire the Prosecutor General who was about to indict Hunter Biden for corruption..

Once again.. Democrats have hysterical bullshit from ANONYMOUS SOURCES...

And the forces of good and just have the FACTS..

Typical..

It is your fault before that for reading all of those stories during the 2016 election about how Mr. Trump was such a tyrannical megalomaniac for suggesting he might not accept the results of the election — only to spend three years listening to Mrs. Clinton, all the Democrats and most of the crooked media refuse to accept the results of the 2016 election.
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/sep/23/ukraine-scandal-disbelief-caused-media-anti-trump-/

President Trump's popularity FAR exceeds the Leftist MSM media's popularity **AND** the Democrat Party's popularity... :D

Once again, the POLLS crushes and DECIMATES the Demcorat Party and it's propaganda arm.. :D

Ohhhhhh, why would you say that??? Could it be the number of Americans who wanted ObamaCare revoked but did not want their ACA touched?

Heh! Remember the dipshit on Facebook celebrating the Senate vote to kill the ACA (one of dozens)?

I'm not on Obamacare. My health insurance is through the ACA (Affordable Care Act), which was what they had to come up with after Obamacare crashed and burned as bad as it did. So I'm gonna be fine. ~ Dipshit on Facebook

And the GOP in their "infinite wisdom" are still trying to kill the ACA in the Supreme Court as we "speak" and throw millions of Americans off their health care... while still not having a single thing to replace it with: "Nobody knew health care could be so complicated"... if by "nobody" Trump meant "everybody."

When you have one party not willing to support anything that could greatly benefit the nation if they aren’t in the White House to take the credit for it, misinformation tends to occur.

Yep! Also, whenever Donald Trump says something about near anything, misinformation tends to occur because he's an inveterate con and pathological liar.

President Trump's approval numbers are better than Odumbo's!!!

OUCH!!!

That's just GOTTA hurt the Trump/America haters who go on and on about how President Trump is the worst President ever...

:D

It is in connection with Paul Manafort that we encounter some genuine collusion targeting the 2016 campaign: willful collaboration among foreign governments, the Obama administration, and the Clinton campaign.

Once again, Democrats are really shooting themselves in the foot....

It's COMICAL to watch!! :D

What wasn’t known at the time, Shokin told me recently, was that Ukrainian prosecutors were preparing a request to interview Hunter Biden about his activities and the monies he was receiving from Ukraine. If such an interview became public during the middle of the 2016 election, it could have had enormous negative implications for Democrats.

Funny how Joe Biden's one BILLION dollar extortion scheme was deployed at the EXACT moment that the General Prosecutor in Ukraine was preparing to interview Hunter Biden...

Joe's campaign will be in tatters and Hunter will be going to prison...

And Democrats?? They will, once more, skulk away to lick their wounds.. :D

Nancy Pelosi will meet with House Democrats TODAY on impeachment as they reach 'tipping point' despite Trump insisting there would be nothing wrong with asking Ukraine's president for Joe Biden corruption probe

Democrats, once again, are dancing to President Trump's tune..

Nothing will energize Trump voters more than Democrats trying to nullify a free, fair, legal and Constitutional election..

But at least it establishes one fact..

Democrats are becoming more and more afraid that they CAN'T beat President Trump at the ballot box...

:D

Once again, President Trump has maneuvered Democrats into the PERFECT Lose-Lose situation.. :D

Although I have no doubt the gullible MAGAt useful idiots will believe whatever bullshit they are spoon-fed by the corrupt asshat who holds the position of POTUS and the complicit morons who know better but have no spinal columns, we're talking about a billion-dollar loan guarantee and not as the dipshits keep whining "a billion dollars being withheld by Joe Biden."

Of course, as always, the verifiable facts don't exactly match the Trump bullshit. In repeatedly castigating Biden's effort to get the prosecutor general fired, Trump has declined to mention that a whole lot of other people were doing the same thing at the same time and looking to the United States for leadership on the issue. Shokin was faulted for declining to bring prosecutions of elites' corruption, not the other way around. Shokin's deputy, Vitaliy Kasko, resigned in February 2016 alleging that Shokin's office was corrupt.

At that time, the IMF had warned Ukraine that it risked losing financial support if it did not clean up its act.

Fast forward to Biden applying very public and private pressure on the Ukraine. In Biden's speech to Ukraine's legislature, he said: "The Office of the General Prosecutor desperately needs reform."

At a Council on Foreign Relations event in 2018, Biden recounted that he had threatened to withhold a "billion-dollar loan guarantee" unless Poroshenko followed through on what Biden said was a "commitment" to "take action against the state prosecutor."

"I looked at them and said: 'I'm leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you're not getting the money.' Well, son of a bitch. He got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time," Biden said.

So Biden -- as he is wont to do -- wasn't exactly factual here, as Shokin wasn't actually terminated while Biden was in the Ukraine, but Ukraine's legislature voted to terminate Shokin later in March 2016 after pressure from multiple avenues.

Allow me to reiterate what I said yesterday that I find it infinitely interesting that Trump -- after all these years -- suddenly needed to send his personal attorney to Ukraine regarding so-called "corruption" involving Hunter and Joe Biden? Oh, please!

Also, since when has Trump shown any interest in doing a damn thing about corruption in foreign government? And speaking of corruption, why such cozying up to Vladimir Putin and Russia and the easing of sanctions on Manafort's pal Deripaska to build a "foil factory" in Moscow Mitch's State of Kentucky when it was Deripaska who paid Manafort tens of millions of dollars to further Russia's interests around the globe?

Manafort wasn't just any GOP candidate's campaign manager, he was Trump's... the same Manafort who is not exactly a stranger to Ukraine and corruption seeing that Manafort has entered a guilty plea and is now serving multiple years in prison at least in part for some of Manafort's admitted involvement of corruption in Ukraine wherein his corrupt pal Victor fled to the waiting arms of his friends in Russia.

Deripaska, Moscow Mitch, Ukraine, Paul Manafort -- I could go on, you know -- are all connected events and seem to mirror nicely the "same shit different day" of Russia's interference in the affairs of the United States through Benedict Donald... and the "elephant in the room" foreign corruption that didn't seem to motivate the decisions of either Trump or McConnell until just very recently.

What wasn’t known at the time, Shokin told me recently, was that Ukrainian prosecutors were preparing a request to interview Hunter Biden about his activities and the monies he was receiving from Ukraine. If such an interview became public during the middle of the 2016 election, it could have had enormous negative implications for Democrats.

All the facts are going to come out..

And it's going to be DEVASTATING for the Demcorat Party! :D

WOOT!!!

The meeting, promised as training, turned out to be more of a pretext for the Obama administration to pressure Ukraine’s prosecutors to drop an investigation into the Burisma Holdings gas company that employed Hunter Biden and to look for new evidence in a then-dormant criminal case against eventual Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, a GOP lobbyist.

So, it looks like Odumbo and Biden were involved in Ukraine to get dirt on Trump long before the election..

Dumbocrats are all hysterical because they believed President Trump used funding to coerce Ukraine to investigate Joe and Hunter Biden...

So, what do Democrats do??

Let's get real: Democrats were first to enlist Ukraine in US elections

The implied message did not require an interpreter for Zelensky to understand: Investigate the Ukraine dealings of Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, and you jeopardize Democrats' support for future U.S. aid to Kiev.

Democrats turn around and threaten Ukraine with losing funding if Ukraine goes and investigate the wrong-doing of Joe and Hunter Biden..

So, the FACTS clearly show that Democrats are accusing the President of doing something illegal and then they turn around and DO THE EXACT SAME THING!!

WTF????

Democrats are well and truly whacked..

Dumbocrat indoctrination simply breeds morons..

:eyeroll:

Facts don't lie, my friend..

Lowest unemployment for minorities **EVER**

Lowest unemployment overall in **DECADES**

Millions more jobs than people...

GDP consistently higher than Odumbo and the Dumbocrats said it could ever be!!!

A fully conservative SCOTUS whose ratio to liberal will be 7 to 2 in very short order..

A completely protected 2nd Amendment that will withstand ALL assaults on it..

What's not to love!?? :D

The only good that could come out of Trump is that citizens would realize Trump is just the tip of the iceberg

Gotta disagree with ya here.. To claim Trump is simple one example of same ol same ol politician is simply to ignore the reality of President Trump..

There has been NO POTUS like President Trump.. There likely will NEVER BE another POTUS like President Trump..

This is supposed to be a reality based blog.

Yea, but it lost that status with the onset of HHPTDS...

It should have at least one person not buying into the delusions of those that prefer burying their heads in the sand because they are afraid to take action and/or admit they have been suckered.

:D

How else will the author ever stop promoting the lies and actually live up to the claim of a reality based blog, if that is ever to happen?

We have the blog we have, not the blog we wish we had...

I would love to see this forum get back to the way it was before all the Haters and Stalkers and Morons showed up...

But we have what we have, not what we WISH we would have..

A bullshit scandalous report in the NY GRIME, followed up by FACTS that paint an entirely different picture..

And then a Democrat feeding frenzy where Democrats fall all over themselves to condemn everything..

Then a calming of the waters and the realization that, once again, Democrats have been had...

You could almost set your WATCH to it..

I am going thru a LOT of popcorn watching Democrats make asses of themselves over and over and over again..

:D

Nice turn of the metaphor, there DH... :D

Grow up, little miss.. Get some experience and training under your belt.. Then you'll be more than just some young indoctrinated punk that can be used by the Dumbocrat Party...

Compare and contrast the Democrats reaction to this little pipsqueak and the reaction to the little girl that mocked Occasional Cortex..

Democrats sent THAT little girl and her family death threats...

Sometimes Democrats simply disgust me. OK OK, MOST times Democrats simply disgust me..

Looks like this Greta Thrunberg is giving David Hogg a run for his money as the Biggest Little Ignorant Pipsqueak (AKA B.L.I.P.) that should be ignored..

What IS it about Democrats that they embrace the most ignorant amongst humans??
