  1. Where have I written that Trump or his supporters don't have the right to free speech? What has freedom of speech got to do with the fact the Republicans still support Trump despite the nasty lunacy he's espousing? I almost admire the way you have introduced irrelevant observations twice in a row.
  2. It's not about whether he's going to be the next Republican candidate or not. Rather, it's about that someone who endorses such views is still so popular amongst Republicans.
  3. What excuse? The migrants didn't want to stay there. They plan to go to communities where they have connections already and where they'll feel more at home. And where they're not stuck on a small island.
  4. Looks like I confused you with Hanaguma. I guess it's because you both get info from the same poisoned well.
  5. It's almost inevitable that those of a certain political persuasion will resort to the FAIR which consistently uses misleading statistics and sometime outright lies.
  6. Why would you think that they would want to stay on a small island in the Atlantic? The government offered them free accommodation on the mainland. From there they can go to communities that host their relatives or others from their various countries.
  7. Not all the people of any immigrant group are all nice law abiding familes. But as I cited in an earlier reply to you, these migrants have a lower felony rate than do legal immigrants and U.S.. born citizens. And it's also been pointed out to you earlier,, apparently to no avail, that most drugs come into the US hidden in legitimate shipments of goods from northern Mexico which is highly integrated into the American economy. Even if all undocumented aliens were prevented from entering the US, those drugs would still be coming in.
  8. *Deleted post edited out* If you get stopped in a car with children because you are drunk, then you obviously are in no state to have a child in your custody and in fact pose a threat to them. Most likely, if a parent is incarcerated for being drunk, someone else from the community be it a spouse or relative, someone these children know, will take them into their custody. At worst. social services will take custody. But While a drunk driver poses a deadly threat to others, what these migrants were detained for was a misdemeanor. They weren't in an intoxicated state. How morally deranged does someone have to be not to recognize how brutal such a separation is. These infants and small children certainly did not need protection from their parents. They needed their parents. What kind of human being does one have to be not to recognize the awful damage that was inflicted on these children? And to blame the parents instead of the creatures responsible for the separation. The Obama administration had special facilities for parents with children Not so the Trump administration The Trump administration separated some of these children for years. Years! . Many were sent to other states. In fact, some never were reunited with their parents. What's more, this wasn't inadvertent. These separations weren't a bug: they were a feature inflicted on purpose. The secret history of the U.S. government’s family-separation policy "We need to take away children.” Separating children was not just a side effect, but the intent. Instead of working to reunify families after parents were prosecuted, officials worked to keep them apart for longer. https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2022/09/trump-administration-family-separation-policy-immigration/670604/ And what you failed again to acknowledge, is that when just some of the awfulness of this program was revealed. the Trump administration backed off in face of overwhelming revulsion from the American public.
  9. There's a report in Axios that claims to have unearthed the reason that the Trump team nominated Raymond Dearie to be the Special Master. This was considered surprising since Dearie is pretty much universally acknowledged to be an excellent, fair-minded jurist. Apparently, they believe that because he served on the FISA court he's open to being sceptical of the FBI. He is one of the judges who approved the surveillance of Carter Page which later turned out to be based on faulty grounds. So, I guess when he mostly rules against Trump, that will give them the option of calling him biased because of that approval. Anyway, here's a link to the article: https://www.axios.com/2022/09/18/trump-special-master-dearie-fbi-skeptic
  10. I'm sure you're referring to reports coming from the voices in my head which tell me thatThanksgiving will be canceled this year because there is no God. I hope everybody appreciates the significance of ths...no Black Friday sales!. We are doomed.
  11. Congratulations to the governor of Texas for making life even more difficult for the migrants: A bus contractor hired by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to transport migrants to New York signed an agreement not talk to NY officials, complicating volunteer efforts to help: report Manuel Castro, commissioner of the New York City Mayor's Office of Immigrant Affairs, told the AP that complicates efforts to meet and provide resources for migrants being sent from Texas. "It's a problem because we don't know when the buses are coming, how many buses are coming, if anyone on these buses has medical conditions that they will need help with, if they need a wheelchair,"Castro told the outlet. "We at least want to know that so that we can best help people as they arrive." https://news.yahoo.com/bus-contractor-hired-texas-gov-192722017.html
  12. Here's a definition from the American Psychological Association: IQ intelligence quotient: a standard measure of an individual’s intelligence level based on psychological tests. https://dictionary.apa.org/iq
  13. It's bizarre. Trump supports a movement that explicitly claims Trump's elite opponents are drinking blood, but Nauseus focuses on decor instead.
  14. Well, these are people who have had extensive personal face time with Trump to support their characterizations.
  15. That's all you've got? You have no problems with a potential candidate for President who endorses a movement that claims a sinister political elite is drinking the blood of children, is shipping children arouond the country to satisfy their pedophiliac desires, and that The Storm is coming that will result in their mass execution? That really isn't enough for you?
  16. And was Biden endorsing QAnon, a movement which claims elites drink the blood of children to extend their lives? That The Storm is coming which is going to result in the mass executions of Deep State malefactors? That Donald Trump was secretly fighting a cabal of pedophiliacs who are shipping children around the country via a fake furniture manufacturer? And there's so much more.
  17. Nonsense. Just because someone is deranged that doesn't mean they're unintellignet.
  18. You're not getting exercised about the fact that the person who consistently leads in polls to be the next Republican candidate for President is now endorsing a lunatic conspiracy theory? Do you think his endorsement is going to help it grow among Republicans, where it's already got a strong foothold? A Quarter of Republicans Believe Central Views of QAnon Conspiracy Movement Americans who most trust far-right news outlets are nearly five times as likely to believe the central views of the conspiracist movement, a study found. https://www.usnews.com/news/politics/articles/2022-02-24/a-quarter-of-republicans-believe-central-views-of-qanon-conspiracy-movement
  19. And yet... Trump embraces, hypes QAnon conspiracy theories After winking at QAnon for years, Donald Trump is overtly embracing the baseless conspiracy theory, even as the number of frightening real-world events linked to it grows. On Tuesday, using his Truth Social platform, the Republican former president reposted an image of himself wearing a Q lapel pin overlaid with the words "The Storm is Coming." In QAnon lore, the "storm" refers to Trump's final victory, when supposedly he will regain power and his opponents will be tried, and potentially executed, on live television. As Trump contemplates another run for the presidency and has become increasingly assertive in the Republican primary process during the midterm elections, his actions show that far from distancing himself from the political fringe, he is welcoming it. https://www.fox10phoenix.com/news/qanon-trump-conspiracy-theories
  20. But it was a majority. And no public ballot was held for citizens of the UK to vote directly for any PM.
  21. I'm sure that your question makes sense to you.
  22. You think that white rural and elderly white people are especially concerned about corruption?
  23. I see you still don't get the point. Barr misrepresented the seriousness of the possible grounds for Trumps actions qualifying as obstruction of Justice. For which a Federal justice severely reproached him.
  24. Also, this proposed deal that allegedly involved Joe Biden, was concocted in 2017 when Biden was no longer vice-President. Not only that, but according to those supposedly incriminating emails, Biden actually nixed any involvement with his son's deal. One email mentions that the equity split would include “10 held by H for the big guy ?” A former business partner of Hunter’s named Tony Bobulinski came forward to claim “the big guy” was Joe Biden. 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/2020/10/22/21529237/hunter-biden-debate-laptop-tony-bobulinski
  25. Oh, Bobulinski again? Really? "Everything I’m saying is corroborated by emails, WhatsApp chats, agreements, documents and other evidence," he told reporters gathered Oct. 22, before gesturing to three phones that he claimed contained incriminating evidence and said he would hand over to authorities. Bobulinski provided some of his records to outlets like Fox News and the Wall Street Journal. Both reported that they do not show Joe Biden had business dealings with SinoHawk Holdings or took money from the Chinese company. https://www.politifact.com/article/2020/oct/29/tony-bobulinski-hunter-biden-and-china-explainer/ Ex-Hunter Biden associate's records don't show proof of Biden business relationship amid unanswered questions Tony Bobulinski had claimed the former VP was involved in discussions about his son's dealings overseas https://www.foxnews.com/politics/hunter-biden-tony-bobulinski-joe-biden-unanswered-questions Hunter Biden’s Ex-Business Partner Alleges Father Knew About Venture Former vice president says he had no involvement; corporate records reviewed by The Wall Street Journal show no role for Joe Biden https://www.wsj.com/articles/hunter-bidens-ex-business-partner-alleges-father-knew-about-venture-11603421247
