  1. The US/Israel bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities has the opposite effect. It has ignite Iran’s determination to have nuclear deterrence. Iran is threatening to pull out if the NPT which will be a serious escalation as they will not be monitored by IEAE. Trump has made the situation worse off twice. Pulling out of the JCPOA was his first mistake and the bombing has created more distrust and fuelled Iran need for deterrence.
  2. He is hot commodity and well known. Media companies will make a beeline for him. Could be netflex like Letterman or back to the Daily Show. He has a wide field to choose. Even as a freelancer, he will have no problem finding work. It is CBS lost to cancel his show.
  3. Fox had their fair share of editing Trump's interviews. Here is one. https://www.yahoo.com/news/fox-news-trump-interview-resurfaces-164913528.html
  4. Trump's coercion using lawsuit is a form of censorship no different from Russia's censorship on Ukraine war coverage. 1st amendment is under threat.
  5. As Rep Goldman tweeted "Good try ". Those that were asked to be released by the President were transcripts relating to the criminal prosection of Epstein and only a small fraction of the evidence assembled by the prosecutors and FBI like the client list and how Epstein die. You should know better not to trust Trump to be transparent.
  6. If Trump is unlikely to sack Fed Chair Powell, stop talking about him as it send jitters to the market. The narcissistic bully just can't resist the urge to exhibit himself.
  7. You are under informed bigly. Democrats on the House Judiciary are working hard to get the GOP representatives to compel DOJ to testify in Congress. Dems Ro Khanna is also teaming with GOP Massie to force legislation to the floor to vote on the release of the files. They also are bringing up the Epstein case in campaign speeches. Quiet?
  8. Not illegal and neither is US at war to detain or target immigrants without hearing and based on their country of birth or citizenship. Gross abuse of power.
  9. All Presidents deport illegals. None invoke the1798 Alien Enemies Act to deport. Under this Act, the scope for apprehension and removal of individuals are wide and lack due process protection. ICE was also given wider latitude to arrest and had poor supervision. This give rise to lawsuits, protest and hurt the economy. There is no hypocrisy; just incompetency in leadership. .
  10. What has that got to do with the Democrats. You do know that there are 3 equal branches in the government and each is independent of the others. Might be strange for you to know that.
  11. There will be more threats after the bipartisan Epstein Files Transparency Act vote in the House.
  12. Think again bob. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5402165-just-3-percent-satisfied-with-amount-of-epstein-information-released-survey/
  13. Talk is cheap. GOP claimed that Trump has absolute power over prosecutorial decision. What stopping him to instruct Bondi to release?
  14. The sexual predator and his billionaires friends are panicking over the release of the pedophile list.
  15. Israel is the largest cumulative recipient of US foreign aid. US can do a lot more to influence Israel behavior.
  16. The people has spoken and now with the Maga fractures, the mid-term is a foregone conclusion. As Banon said, GOP could lose 40 House seats over the Epstein files. Piled on this with the angers from the Maga base with Trump's arms decision.
  17. Maga will not be happy with this turn of event. 68% of Republicans disapproved of continued military aid to Ukraine. Many congressional representatives have repeatedly tried to block or restrict Ukraine aid. Ultra Maga MTG was very vocal saying "Maga did not vote for more weapons to Ukraine". More cracks within Maga.
  18. The prize is the city of Kostiantynivka which is strategic as the gateway into Donetsk. Russia summer offensive started in early June and the city has not fallen. Does seem a stalemate to me.
  19. Neither going Russia's way. Stalemate after 3 years.
  20. Obama administration had detailed enforcement policies with strict hierarchy. There were proper guidelines on who among the unauthorized immigrants that will be protected from enforcement. Trump policies were vague and governed by overarching principle that no group of immigrants were exempted or excluded from enforcement. There were strict adherence to policies by ICE agents and use of prosecutorial discretion. ICE under Kristi Noem had wider latitude and little guidance or oversight. There were no polls, protests or disruption to the economy with Obama's deportation policy because of good leadership.
  21. The Secretary of Agriculture said the void will be filled by Americans I guess that's the rubbish you will hear from an official without experience in agriculture. She was an attorney.
  22. My viewpoint is that deportation has been policies of previous Presidents and can be done within the parameters of the law and constitution and should not creat havoc on the economy. Trump's mass deportation using the Alien Enemies Act is illegal and is chaotic with summary arrest and detention without due process and a dent to the economy. Can you mention any of his major domestic and foreign policies that are delivered successfully? I like to learn from you.
  23. Yes, the European Union is buying significantly less oil and gas from Russia compared to before the start of the war in Ukraine. The EU has implemented measures to reduce its reliance on Russian energy, with a goal to fully end this dependency.
