Where's your link from a credible source on this? ????

Your question clearly establishes how fact-proof is the new bubble you inhabit. There's  a saying that attorneys in a court shouldn't ask questions they don't know already the answer to. Because it's very embarrassing. Maybe you're embarrassment-proof?

 

Here's something from the Marxists at Fox News:

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/hunter-biden-investigation-ag-garland-taking-hands-off-approach-leaves-charging-decisions-weiss

 

And from the Maoists at the Washington Times:

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/mar/1/merrick-garland-says-delaware-us-attorney-david-we/

 

And here's a bit of general informatIon:

"On February 15, 2018, his nomination to be the United States Attorney was confirmed by voice vote. He was sworn in on February 22, 2018. Weiss has been in charge of the investigations into the financial dealings of Hunter Biden and was asked to stay on during the Biden administration.[4]"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_C._Weiss#:~:text=He currently serves as the,Attorney from 2009 to 2011.

 

And now that I've complied with your request, I am confident that you will do the honorable thing and comply with mine, I await your response with eagerness. 

 

EDIT: Well, it looks like 2009 has fled the scene. What a crucifix is to a vampire, facts are to Trump supporters.

Even if he had "...tried overthrow a legitimate election via a coup...", which he did not, that still does not explain in any way "...the level of vitriol posted at Trump.".

 

 

 

So i guess trying to "find"  11780 more votes than "we have", putting together a plot of fake electors, trying to pressure pence into not doing his duty along with unleashing a violent mob to try and stop the electoral vote count and continuing to this day to tell the big lie that he won as well as calling the capitol thugs patriots and heroes is not trying to overthrow an election and is just another day at the office and everyone is just picking on him for no reason at all.    That is one of many reasons that there is a lot of vitriol directed at him...some of us don't much care for lying dictator wannabes who think they are above the law and want to toss the constitution when it suits him.

He's getting done for an accounting error, because he didn't account for the hush money he allegedly paid.

Yes, it was only a mere $130,000, Cohen paid it and Trump paid him back, how could he be so absent minded? ????

It wasn't an accounting error..........he fraudulently used campaign funds to pay her off.............that is what the indictment is all about.

Yeah, he valued America's border. That was good.

 

Nothing like the feeling of your country having a secure border.

Then why didn't he increase security at legal points of entry, where most illegal immigrants and smuggling occurs?  Why didn't he crack down on people drawing illegal immigrants to this country by hiring them?

This is the issue that supporters of the wall repeatedly avoid. If criminal penalties including imprisonment were to be legislated aganst employers who hire undocumented aliens, then we would see a sharp decline in undocumented immigrants entering the United States. But the dirty not-so-secret secret is that much of the US economy depends on undocumented aliens. And employers like it that way because undocumented workers are far less likely to seek legal recourse in case they are being mistreated or cheated by their employers. And when have Republicans ever gone after the ruling class of the business world?

Are you claiming he did not?

But were this true.

I look at the US military today and I am appalled, as are (I think) a majority of other Americans. That you did not call for Mark Milley's resignation as well as all the other officers that were openly disparaging their Commander in Chief speaks to where your allegiance really lies.

 

I watch the available footage of the Capital riots and when I hear it referred to as an insurrection, I am appalled (albeit amused). Clearly when the left riots it's a protest, but when the right riots it's an insurrection. 

 

For at least a year the left was calling it an "armed insurrection", but they finally had to drop the "armed" part, so now it was just an "insurrection", how funny is that?  

Ok, I know this is futile, but provide evidence of your claim "other officers that were openly disparaging their Commander in Chief speaks to where your allegiance really lies."  What officers in addition to General Mark Milley, and most important, what did they say and when?

 

However I can answer the question--The allegiance of all officers in the US Military is to the US Constitution.

I agree.  The "problem" could be alleviated by acknowledging the obvious:  The best, brightest, most hard-working and ambitious all over the world want to live and work in America.  It is idiotic that they are not welcomed in large numbers.  Not open borders, but much easier long-term work visas and immigration rules in general for such people.

 

There is a self-serving strategic logic to this.  Great power contests are won often by economic power more than diplomatic policy or military strength.  Economic power greatly enhances diplomatic and military effectiveness.  Being more open to the world's "best and brightest" would be great for the economy.

And if they were legal, then they would be working for at least minimum wage with overtime rules in effect. So less grounds for alleged displacement of workers. Although it's dubious that many native-born Americans would want to do the backbreaking work that constitutes so much a part of agriculture. And in slaughterhouses, too.
