A report card on the Biden administration

No... this legislative hearing is being run is a court of public opinion, but it is only a hearing...... and the evidence represented is one sided with no cross-examination... it is an illegit and illegal committee and any evidence collected should not be allowed in a real court..... Fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine...

 

Nonsense! Everybody who has been accused has been invited to testify and they have refused.

I ask again: what "evidence"... even hypothetical evidence... would exonerate Trump and his minions?

ALL evidence would incriminate them further. And this is why they refuse to testify. There is NO other reason.

 

In other words, not everyone who might have had a different view has been invited to testify.

I have no idea. I have no idea what evidence is out there.

Guilty until proven innocent.

 

Exactly! As I said, it's for YOU to form an opinion. But it won't work if all you want is for Tucker Carlson to tell you what your opinion is.

 

Or yours.

 

Everybody! And they reiterate the invitation at the end of every session.

You should stop commenting on a process you're not even watching. I'm not wasting my time narrating it to you anymore. Watch it!!!!

 

Difference is I'm watching, and you're not.

 

Trump appointed three judges to continue his legacy.

Because of its enormous unpopularity, the conservative Supreme Court has walled itself off from the American people.

And for good reason. It is extremely likely the Court will decide that the government will control a woman's pregnancy, a decision that runs counter to the majority of Americans. The Court doesn't seem to care. What matters to the Court is its religious view on pregnancies.

CNN explains, "Under normal circumstances on decision days at the end of June, the Supreme Court emerges from behind crimson curtains to finally issue the most controversial cases of the term after months of closed-door deliberations. Wearing their judicial robe and exhausted from the final push of work, the justices take their seats and the majority opinion is read by its author."

None of that will happen this month.

CNN continued, "Instead, the courtroom’s majestic chamber is dark – ostensibly due to lingering Covid concerns. The plaza has been completely walled off by security fences, a move prompted by protests that erupted last month after a draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade was leaked to the media.

"Now, armed guards are providing 24-hour protection at the justices’ homes while protestors sometimes gather outside and the President has signed legislation to enhance security protection for the justices and their families."

Then we have this fateful decision. In the face of countless shooting massacres in our country where children are the targets in many cases the court has returned us to the Middle Ages where guns are concerned.

ABC reports, "The Supreme Court ruling Thursday striking down a New York state law limiting the right to carry a concealed handgun in public is sparking a furor from Albany to Washington as gun safety activists and Democrats warn the ruling will lead to more guns, and more violence.

"The high court's ruling struck down the century-old law mandating that gun owners demonstrate "proper cause" to carry a concealed handgun outside of their homes.

"The 6-3 opinion was authored by Justice Clarence Thomas for the conservative majority with the three liberal justices dissenting.

"Republicans and gun rights groups, for their part, hailed the ruling, casting it as a needed protection of the Second Amendment.

Similar laws in several other states are now in jeopardy because of the Court's decision.

Republicans are rejoicing!

 

Be careful. Trumpists like to dominate a discussion with their stupidity and lack of awareness.

The fact that there are no Republicans defending Trump was a decision made by Republicans. You and I know that, and my reports explain it (post 1593).

Senate Republicans killed the nonpartisan commission. So, the investigation went to the House which is ruled by Democrats.

Poster wants Trump to benefit from Republican stupidity.

It doesn't work that way.

 

But only in an investigation which is unfavorable to Trump.

 

Is that supposed to bother me because I do not get to hear your biased version?

 

This is the kind of representation uninformed, education deprived Trump Republicans want.

CNN reports, "Newly elected Republican Congresswoman Mayra Flores spread conspiracies on social media that the January 6 riot at the US Capitol was caused by members of the far-left group Antifa and repeatedly used a hashtag of the QAnon conspiracy theory in tweets that have since been removed.

"Flores won the special election for Texas’ 34th Congressional District last week, giving Republicans an additional seat in the House of Representatives. She beat a field of four other candidates – two Republicans and two Democrats.

"Before running for office, Flores was a local Republican activist who tweeted under the handle “LaRepublicana86,” where she spread false claims about election fraud and immediately began suggesting on January 6, 2021, that the Capitol riot was caused by Antifa and “infiltrators.”

"The Republican Party of Texas adopted a resolution at its state convention that rejects President Joe Biden as the winner of the 2020 election, further aligning the state party establishment with former President Donald Trump in pushing false election claims."

“We reject the certified results of the 2020 Presidential election, and we hold that acting President Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. was not legitimately elected by the people of the United States,” reads the resolution.

The Hill reports, "The Jan. 6 committee investigating the attack on the Capitol revealed Thursday that at least a half-dozen Republican lawmakers asked for presidential pardons for their role in voting to overturn election results in certain states on Jan. 6, 2021, according to testimony from former Trump aides.

"Testimony from Trump aides named Reps. Matt Gaetz (Fla.) Mo Brooks (Ala.) Louie Gohmert (Texas), Andy Biggs (Ariz.), and Scott Perry (PA.) as seeking pardons."

Trump Republicans are the same people who want to control Congress after the November mid-terms.

 

Agree. Not submitting Republicans to the committee will likely be regarded as McCarthy's biggest mistake of his career. And that's saying a lot, given the many many mistakes McCarthy has made.

 

The committee is illegit and illegal... it's purpose is to dig up crimes... legislative Congress hearings are to dig up legislative issues and not look for executive criminal issues... Any and all testimony falls under the doctrine "Fruit of the poisonous tree" as this is an illegal committee to start.

let him speak for himself... Your little Pelosi kiddie games are getting old... I wish we had some grownups in the House, maybe in November...

https://www.republicanleader.gov/mccarthy-statement-on-select-committee-on-january-6/

Washington, D.C. – House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy (CA-23) released the following statement on the Select Committee on January 6th:

“Speaker Pelosi’s rejection of the Republican nominees to serve on the committee and self-appointment of members who share her pre-conceived narrative will not yield a serious investigation.

“The Speaker has structured this select committee to satisfy her political objectives. She had months to work with Republicans on a reasonable and fair approach to get answers on the events and security failures surrounding January 6.

“Instead, she has played politics. Lost in much of the news coverage is the fact that the Senate has already conducted bipartisan investigations that should serve as a roadmap for the House.

“Speaker Pelosi’s departure from this serious-minded approach has destroyed the select committee’s credibility. The U.S. Capitol and the men and women who protect it suffered a massive leadership failure. We must make sure that never happens again and that is what Republicans will be focused on.”

 

Joe is an embarrasment to our country
"of... it just... it" - Biden Suffers Mental Lapse While Whining About Roe Ruling

The extreme unpopularity of Trump's conservative Court grew in intensity today.

Following the shooting massacres in Buffalo and Uvalde as well as others, the Court expanded gun rights. One can now carry a loaded gun in plain view down Fifth Avenue in New York. What kind of person would want to do such a thing?

Following that fateful decision, the Court made an extremely unpopular decision today.

CNN explains, "The Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade on Friday, holding that there is no longer a federal constitutional right to an abortion.

"The opinion is the most consequential Supreme Court decision in decades and will transform the landscape of women’s reproductive health in America.

"Going forward, abortion rights will be determined by states, unless Congress acts.  Already, nearly half of the states have or will pass laws that ban abortion while others have enacted strict measures regulating the procedure."

There are hundreds of reasons why this decision was a poor one, and many of them will become clear in the coming months as chaos reigns. Here are a few.

The Court argued that the right to an abortion is not in the Constitution. The enormous duplicity of this statement by the Supreme Court is egregious. The American people have hundreds of rights that are not enumerated in the Constitution. The statement is downright ludicrous, damaging the reputation of the Court.

This is the first time in its history that the Supreme Court has removed a fundamental right, the right of a woman to make her own decisions regarding her health and well-being.

The Court is imposing its religious view on the American people.

The Court determined that the government is in control of a woman's health when it involves a pregnancy. The woman and her doctor do not decide her fate. The state does.

Oklahoma has made abortion a criminal act, punishable by a prison term. If a woman from Oklahoma goes to New York where abortion is legal, can Oklahoma charge the person who performed the abortion?

The Court's obsession with its religious view on abortion overrode all other considerations.

This is Trump's legacy and the Republican Party is solely responsible. It will take a federal law to restore a woman's right to make health decisions. Keep that in mind when you vote in November. It will require 60 votes in the Senate to override Republican opposition to the legislation.

 

CNN reports, "Abortion-rights protesters continued to voice their fury and anguish nationwide Saturday following the seismic ruling by the US Supreme Court to eliminate the federal constitutional right to an abortion.

"On Friday, the Court overturned the 1973 ruling known as Roe v. Wade, sparking protests that are expected to extend throughout the weekend.

"Smaller gatherings of people celebrating the ruling are also taking place.

"As states started enacting abortion bans and some clinics stopped offering the procedure, abortion-rights advocates took to the streets in major cities.

"More demonstrations are expected today and Sunday in cities big and small, including in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Illinois, Texas, New Mexico, California, and many others."

Coming on the heels of the Court's decision to expand gun rights in New York after the shooting massacres in Buffalo and New York, the extreme unpopularity of the Supreme Court's religious decision regarding a woman's right to determine her health and well-being destiny has created chaos across our country, and there is no end in sight.

All that makes Justice Samuel Alito's remarks extraordinarily ironic. He said, "Roe was egregiously wrong from the start. Its reasoning was exceptionally weak [from a religious point of view], and the decision has had damaging consequences. And far from bringing about a national settlement of the abortion issue, Roe and Casey have inflamed debate and deepened division.”

Incredible! Obviously, Alito is not very cognizant of the world around him. He has lived in the crystal palace far too long.

It was the Supreme Court's decision that fostered "damaging consequences" and "inflamed debate and deepened division!"

At the same time, a former Republican President and the current leader of the Republican Party is being investigated by a Congressional hearing for the alleged crime of leading a coup attempt to overthrow the elected government.

Fostering damaging consequences, inflaming debate, and deepening division are what far-right conservatives do. The proof is in their actions.

These same far-right conservatives expect to win control of Congress in November. As can be seen, if that happens, our country will be in serious trouble.

 

Afghanistan coverup...
The very terrorist that was released by Biden turned around and killed 13 American soldiers and 170 civilians.. Due to Biden aiding and abetting our enemies by supplying them with America's most sophisticated weapons in the world the US is now the number one state sponsors of terrorism. No wonder they want to cover it up..

John Sopko, the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan (SIGAR), wrote a letter to Secretary of State Antony Blinken, USAID Administrator Samantha Power, and the heads of several congressional committees on Wednesday complaining that the Biden administration abruptly stopped cooperating with his investigations after he issued a report critical of President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from Afghanistan.

CNN sees her as "Uppity"

Why Mexican-born Rep. Mayra Flores is the future of the Republican party. “Flores, a 30-something mother of four, told me she was brought up with ‘strong conservative values that focused on faith, family and hard work.’ She won nearly 51% of the vote against her Democratic opponent’s 43% in the special election to replace Democrat Filemon Vela, who retired before his term ended. . . . She said Hispanic voters see themselves as Americans, while Democrats see Hispanic voters as an ethnic voting bloc.”

What a beautiful family!



Crushed It!

It is self-evident that Trump Republicans are attempt9ing to hide the truth!

Incredible, the forum's Republicans are totally silent on the issues.

This confirms the point of view that the Republican Party has captured the minds of those who live in the rural counties of America. Those voters are mostly farmers and rural shopkeepers. They lack education and they are not well-informed. Most of what they know about politics is by word of mouth.

Grassroots Republicans have no idea what is going on while avoiding respected news sources. Republicans are not fans of reality.

The proof is their complete silence on the issues, although they are well-versed in personal attacks.

 

ABC reports, "NATO allies will decide at a summit this week to increase the strength of their rapid reaction force nearly eightfold to 300,000 troops as part of their response to an “era of strategic competition," the military alliance's secretary-general said Monday.

"The NATO response force (NRF) currently numbers around 40,000 soldiers which can deploy quickly when needed.

"In response to the Kremlin’s decision to start the war, U.S. President Joe Biden and his NATO counterparts agreed in February to send thousands of troops, backed by air and naval support, to protect allies near Russia and Ukraine. The 30-nation organization decided at the time to send parts of the NRF and elements of a quickly deployable spearhead unit to the alliance’s eastern flank, marking the first time the force had been used in a defense role."

CNN reports, "President Joe Biden, who is currently meeting with G7 leaders in Germany for a summit primarily focused on Ukraine, announced recently that the US would provide Ukraine with “more advanced rocket systems and munitions” as its war with Russia grinds on. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is slated to virtually address Biden and other G7 leaders on Monday."

It is true. I rarely discuss our President, who is the subject of this thread. As our economy flourishes with excellent spending and full employment despite inflation, our President quietly does his job without fanfare and without controversy. Our kind of President.

To be brutally honest, there is a scarcity of material on President Biden because he is efficient and somber.

Even his detractors can't find anything to discuss beyond accusations of senility and, occasionally, an article about his son, Hunter.

The President's detractors complain about inflation and high prices at the pump, but that's all they can do. Even Republicans know Biden didn't cause those problems. If anyone disagrees with that analysis, please explain your reasons.

 

Politico reports, "John Eastman, the attorney who developed Donald Trump’s last-ditch strategy to seize a second term, said in court Monday that he had his phone seized by federal agents last week."

“The federal agents identified themselves as FBI agents, but they appeared to be executing a warrant issued at the behest of the Department of Justice’s Office of the Inspector General,” Eastman’s lawyer, Charles Burnham, wrote.

Politico continued, "A legal adviser to Trump’s campaign, Eastman has been a central figure in the Capitol riot committee’s case that the former president attempted to block the peaceful transfer of power on Jan. 6, 2021. A federal judge in California has previously ruled that Eastman and Trump “likely” entered a criminal conspiracy to obstruct the counting of electoral votes on Jan. 6.

"Last week, subpoenas were served on a slew of those false electors, including at least three state Republican Party chairs. Investigators also searched the Lorton, Va., home of former Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark, another critical player in Trump’s efforts."

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol on Monday abruptly scheduled a hearing for Tuesday afternoon to hear what the panel called “recently obtained evidence” and take witness testimony, a surprise move that touched off a wave of speculation about a potentially explosive revelation," every major news outlet in the country.

It is beginning to look like the DOJ is closing in on Trump, the leader of the Republican Party, and the leader of the attempt to overthrow our elected government.

No response is expected from Trump Republicans. They seemed to have crawled under a rock.
