  1. Center for Immigration Studies is a notoriously unreliable source of immigration information. And the article you cite is about the Press Secretary's claim. Not whether or not unauthorized immigration is up or down. Illegal Immigration Gets Less Attention When It Falls Recent news coverage indicates illegal immigration gets less attention when it falls. Articles about the significant drop in illegal entry in recent months have been less noticeable than earlier stories, which often appeared on the front page when numbers on the border spiked. Some argue it’s not surprising editors may view “bad news” as more newsworthy. https://www.forbes.com/sites/stuartanderson/2023/08/01/illegal-immigration-gets-less-attention-when-it-falls/?sh=17adc2426750
  2. Actually, that remark was puncuated with a question mark. And Hunter Biden reported in a later text that his father met his request to join the business with an "emphatic no." But a subsequent email from Hunter says his “Chairman” gave him “an emphatic no,” and a further email clarifies that the chairman is his dad. https://www.vox.com/22992772/hunter-biden-laptop
  3. Got any links to support your claim?
  4. And many people died as a result of such foolishness. Not only that, but because hospitals were overloaded with vaccine refuseniks, people with other illnesses received a lower standard of care.
  5. No, unless doctors and nurses are also epidemiologists, they're not qualified to examine and compare the results of studies. You think because doctors wear white, that makes them scientists or statisticians? Anyway, "evidence" like yours is useless. Come up with something that's independently verifiable. From the landing page of The World Forum: "Any alleged factual claims must be supported by a valid link to an approved credible source." https://aseannow.com/forum/158-world-news/
  6. I guess I must have missed that article that was published in the journal of three of my doctors and couple of nurses . You got any evidence from actual epidemiological studies?
  7. Well the reason I ask is because the article didn't support what you claimed. Did you read the follow-up paragraph?
  8. Are you referring to the people Trump read to or to the justice department? If, to the justice department, then I suppose they can match up what Trump read to the text of the document.
  9. Since your original post about this has apparently been deleted by the mods, it's impossible to know what you are getting at. If it's only about allegations against Hunter Biden that's one thing. But as for proving Biden's involvement, you've got nothing. In fact, 2 of the links you provided are to articles that rebut various claims against Joe Biden. Care to get more specific than merely providing links. How about some quotes?
  10. You sure that vaccines don't prevent transmission? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10073587/
  11. Really? A common side effect? Got any actual evidence to support that? Or was your source Will Witt?
  12. Wow, somebody's been getting drunk on the Kool-Aid. Now you're seeing zombies. No matter how many times that falsehood about dead people voting gets shot down, it keeps coming back to life.
  13. Except that the discrepancy in mortality rates only appeared after the vaccine was introduced.
  14. Will Witt, the author of this piece, is an anti-covid vaccine loon. It’s not true that nearly half of pregnant women in Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine trial miscarried This statistic was based on a misinterpretation of data. It has since been corrected. The miscarriage rate during the trial tracked with the rate of miscarriages in society at large. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/aug/29/viral-image/its-not-true-nearly-half-pregnant-women-pfizers-co/ So much for Will Witt.
  15. So how has the EU singled out the hated UK as opposed to other non-EU countries? Doesn't Brexit mean Brexit?
  16. More nonsense about the Ukraine war isn't Russia's doing. As for Iran and BRICS, you are confused. Whatever the importance of membership in the BRIC nations turns out to be, it was Trump who denied Iran continued participation in the world economy through prohibiting them the means to conduct transactions in dollars over the SWIFT system.
  17. Can you share with us what wars Biden has declared? As for Trump, he did manage to antagonize Iran to the effect that it doesn't have much longer to go to create a nuclear weapon.
  18. Good news! No need to wonder any longer. The reason that the indictments took so long is that Trump had his lawyers resist the various probes every step of the way. Almost always, their motions were dismissed. Often, the lawyers were chided by judges for filing frivolous motions. If Trump believed he was innocent, you'd think he'd have wanted the trials to be held as quickly as possible to establish that innocence.
  19. As far as the economy goes, it looks like what we are seeing is the same phenomenon as when people are asked about the state of education in the U.S. When asked about it in general, a majoirty Americans say it's in bad shape, but when asked about their own school systems a majority are content. Majority of Americans say the economy's bad, but their own finances are good: poll By the numbers: In the telephone survey of 1,818 adults Aug. 10-14, 71% of Americans described the economy as either not so good or poor. And 51% said it's getting worse. But 60% said their financial situation is good or excellent. https://www.axios.com/2023/08/18/americans-economy-bad-personal-finances-good
  20. Well, they never had a chance to prove it. Mueller said if it were not for Justice Dept policy against indicting a sitting President, he would have had grounds to go after Trump for obstruction of Justice which included broadly hinting to Paul Manafort that he could be pardoned. William Barr misrepresented the report for which he was castigated by a Federal judge.
  21. We can go back to Obama's time in office. After the midterm election, in 2014, the Republicans pushed for austerity in the wake of the greatest financial disaster since the Great Depression. You know, the Herbert Hoover approach. The results were predictable. Recovery was slowed immensely.
  22. I don't see why. It's not like Trump is paying for his legal defense.
  23. It could as reported below that he transferred ownership to one of his children. This is a tactic often pulled by people who fear that they might be legally on the hook for damages in court cases. Donald Trump seemingly transferred Mar A Lago estate to his son before his arrest https://www.express.co.uk/news/us/1806124/donald-trump-mar-a-lago-ownership
  24. Actually, the infrastructure plan wasn't bipartisan at all. Which makes its passage under Biden even more impressive. Biden understands how to negotiate and drew on his long experience to do that.
  25. The evidence and reasoning you bring to bear are as overwhelming as they are absent.
