Popular Post JonnyF Posted August 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 9, 2022 2 minutes ago, Berkshire said: You may be a non-American, but you are absolutely not a neutral observer. Do you even understand how a search warrant is obtained? There has to be suspicion that a crime was committed, that evidence exist at the premises to be searched, and that the person being searched may destroy/delete said evidence. And this has to be presented to a federal judge who has to concur and approve. The DOJ certainly wouldn't do this in such a charged political environment unless they have an airtight case. As for Hunter Biden....the freakin guy never held office or worked in the federal government. If there was reasonable suspicion that he committed a crime, Trump's own justice department could have done something. But there was nothing. Just because you've been brainwashed by right wing media doesn't mean you make any sense or have any idea what you're talking about. A lot of assumptions there my friend.???? I am indeed neutral on US politics but the way the FBI is going after Trump is clearly politically motivated, it's clear as day. However, you radical lefties would never admit such a thing since behind all your talk of due process you secretly support it due to your hatred of Trump. Acting as if judges cannot show political bias or be bought ????. Like I said, people with skin in the game cannot see the wood for the trees, or simply choose to ignore it since it matches/supports their political agenda. It requires a neutral observer like myself to point out the glaringly obvious and even then the Antifa types will shout us down with their usual vitriol. ???? 5 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the US still had due process, innocent until proven guilty? Or have the far left removed this along with freedom of speech, freedom of expression, freedom of thought etc? I agree people should go to jail irrespective of their politics. Which makes the Hunter Biden debacle even more puzzling. He is currently not in jail and he is currently considered innocent. But because crimes are suspected the authorities try to collect evidence. I think that makes a lot of sense. And if they don't find any evidence then the FBI can apologize. No big deal. Personally I don't know much about Hunter Biden and don't care much about him. If he is guilty then he should be prosecuted and maybe jailed. But Hunter Biden is unimportant. But Trump is center stage of what happened and what possibly will happen in the future, big time. It's important to make sure American's know if he is a criminal. Bring the evidence to court and decide about his guilt. 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that you keep bringing up Hunter Biden (and Antifa???) shows your extreme political bias. You are not a neutral observer, it's as clear as day. Why do you keep saying that? Do you think it would give you more credibility? It does not. Trump is under investigation for multiple crimes, in multiple jurisdictions. The evidence is overwhelming. Most observers can't believe he hasn't been indicted already, myself included. But it's because of due process, the rule of law, and the fact that no ex-President has ever been indicted that it's taking so long. Fact is, if Trump is not indicted, it will show the world that the US is not a country of laws. Rather, it will show that our system is corrupt, politics rule, and that the powerful is above the law. 10 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post johnnybangkok Posted August 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 9, 2022 53 minutes ago, JonnyF said: I'm not even a fan of Trump (nice deflection though). I thought he had some good policies and some bad policies, and while he could come across as a bit of a loose cannon at times I never really understood the Left's unhinged obsession with him. It was bordeline psychotic at times. That said, as a non-Amercian neutral observer it's painfully obvious to see what is happening over there. The way the FBI are going after him is in total contrast to the way they dragged their feet over Hunter Biden's laptop. The political situation (and the bulk of the American MSM) is a total disgrace and a complete embarrassment for the US. Unfortunately, those with skin in the game are too distracted to see the bigger picture, or too heavily invested to care. The loser is the country, and more evidently it's reputation. Other countries used to look up to you guys. Now we just shake our heads when we read stories like this. Descending to banana republic status. As also a non-American observer, I couldn't agree with you less. The fact that American is still following a legal route to Trump makes it the absolute opposite of a banana republic. Although the January 6th hearings have taken a long time to get done, they have been thorough and damning in equal measures. On top of this, these raids by the FBI are part of an investigation into Trump's removal of official presidential records from the White House to his Florida resort (amazingly enough, you can't do this) and was on the back of The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration in February notifying Congress that it had recovered about 15 boxes of White House documents from Trump's Florida home, some of which contained classified materials. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-says-fbi-is-raiding-his-florida-estate-what-legal-woes-does-he-face-2022-08-08/ All of this is completely justified because, yet again, Trump refuses to follow the rules and acts in a manner that just automatically arouses suspicion (why WOULDN'T you return records to The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration UNLESS you had something to hide). Whether you think it's just a witch-hunt is irrelevant because the facts don't lend to that argument; he DID try to interfere in the election (and is in deep trouble in Georgia), he still insists the election was stolen and he did insight the January 6th attack on the Capitol. It wouldn't take a huge leap of imagination to think he stole or destroyed sensitive documents as well. P.S. A 'neutral' observer doesn't call people 'radical lefties' or refers to Antifa when the subject has nothing to do with it and they certainly don't keep going on about irrelevant facts such as Hunter Biden's laptop. There is nothing 'neutral' about your political leanings and I think that's very obvious to most. 13 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Credo Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 He is a thief, pure and simple. He took documents he wasn't suppose to take. The National Archives asked for them to be returned. He returned 15 boxes. Apparently, he kept some. All documents going into the WH are entered into a log. There is then a description of the document kept with the log. The Archives will have the logs, but the documents are missing. Nothing more than a common thief. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trumpers have been telling the big lie over and over and over about a so called rigged election...but when it comes time to put up or shut up for 60 judges as well as multiple recounts done by republican lead investigators they NEVER come up with any EVIDENCE. Does anyone with an IQ in triple digits think that IF the Trumpers had any REAL EVIDENCE they would not have produced it in well over a year after the election? Unlike these election deniers/sore losers the purpose of the Jan 6 committee as well as the dept of justice is to see if there is any EVIDENCE and if there is display said evidence for the american public and the judiciary to examine. If Trump commited no crimes then there will be no incriminating evidence. It's not rocket science. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you may not be aware, Robert Mueller found grounds for 10 counts of obstruction of justice committed by Trump. But because Justice Dept policy says a President can't be indicted while in office, Mueller suggested other avenues. i.e. impeachment. Barr quashed that by misrepresenting the contents of the report. He was latter castigated by a federal judge for lying about the report. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
