Canadian Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 (edited) Curious what happens now that Feinstein has died. Does Newsom select someone to honour Feinstein's wish he replaces her with a black female - or does he give a leg up to one of the possible 2024 candidates who would have been trying to win the seat.

He realized the swamp is more real than he thought and they are after him and his family because he scared them and their system of grift because of the endless attacks, it’s NOW personal for him, he wants to get even and actually stop it now… In my view he’s a necessary step to clean up govt. you hold your nose and deal with his verbal nonsense for him to bring rule of law back to govt. and to be honest, his policies for the most part economically benefited the US until covid hit, and then all countries got f’d. He had ALL the power and instead of draining the swamp he dropped a deuce in it and shoved trillions in tax breaks through while spending the most any sitting US president has in history As for attacks.

Warhippy Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 2 hours ago, BlockerHigh said: Steele dossier is not contested in who funded it and why. I posted numerous links on this You posted numerous links and statements. I posted numerous rebuttals and statements that refute much of what you insinuated and then somehow magically neglected to face. So for your benefit I will post them again. All direct rebuttals and responses to claims and statements you made having "studied this more than most" you will be able to attribute these to being truthful and honest to the situation. I might also remind you that the committee sitting right now, is literally trying to impeach a sitting president based on evidence that does not exist and is nothing more than punitive as per statements made byt their own witnesses and party members and their twitter feeds that you purport to be full of credible evidence and reasoning as to why the sitting president is guilty are also full of statements about jewish space lazers. Pizza gate, clinton and obama baby blood bathing as well as calling everyone and their dog groomers and pedophiles because they do not agree with their slant. So again, here are rebuttals to everything you've posted since about page 17 before I bowed out and went to work last night. Please feel free to match the response to your own posts since "doing your own research" is so critical to you. 17 hours ago, Warhippy said: So I follow the evidence as it exists because if it walks like a duck talks like a duck and lies more than any human being in existence it's probably a duck. Clinton was fined for the steele dossier. So what? It turned out to be basically credible in that Trumps campaign DID in fact accept help from Russia during his campaign. Should we recall the magical wiki cable leak that happened days before the election in which the individual leaking it magically ended up in Russia of all places? Look mate. I am a very simple man. I tend to judge people based on their actions and actionable history. When you're clutching your pearls in shock that I think Trump might in fact still be involved with Russia and there's so much gd smoke involved with him; I look at the acts, actions and what's happened and who benefitted from it and think. Yup. That's probably accurate. But way to say Jonathan Li is a top level spy while ignoring the almost dozen links I posted in which Trump made moves, actions or gave information directly to russian or chinese interests and keep on clutching them pearls my dude 17 hours ago, Warhippy said: It appears as though this is a non issue as of June 20th 2023 Hunter Biden and Patrik Ho: https://www.politico.com/news/2023/06/20/hunter-biden-what-to-know-00102700 Hunter Biden has drawn media scrutiny over the years for connections to a scandal-plagued, now-bankrupt Chinese energy giant, CEFC China Energy. According to a Washington Post report, the company and its executives paid $4.8 million to entities controlled by Hunter Biden and James Biden (the president’s brother) in the years between Joe Biden’s time as vice president and president. The company was founded by Ye Jianming, a Chinese national who was deputy secretary for several years in a Chinese military organization that has been called a front for a unit of the People’s Liberation Army responsible for intelligence-gathering and propaganda, according to The New York Times. Ye also reportedly “sent a gift” to North Korean leader Kim Jong-il, the paper reported, and his company hired many former military officers and received billions of dollars in loans from government banks. A CNN report said the firm “aligned itself so closely with the Chinese government that it was often hard to distinguish between the two,” and that Ye “appeared to be China’s unofficial energy envoy.” Hunter Biden met Ye in May 2017, according to the Times, and offered to help him “identify investment opportunities” in the U.S. energy sector. Biden told The New Yorker that Ye gave him a 2.8-carat diamond worth about $10,000 after the meeting. Biden said he “knew it wasn’t a good idea to take it,” and he gave it to his associates. He kept working with Ye, though, and told the magazine he “did not consider Ye to be a ‘shady character at all.’” He started negotiating a deal for the Chinese energy conglomerate to invest in a Louisiana liquefied natural gas project. Ye recruited Hunter Biden to provide legal advice to another CEFC official, Patrick Ho. Biden signed an engagement letter on Sept. 18, 2017, agreeing to a $1 million retainer, according to the Post. In November 2017, Ye and Biden agreed on the Louisiana deal, according to The New Yorker. The same month, FBI agents arrested Ho, who immediately called James Biden. James Biden thought Ho was trying to reach Hunter, he later told The New York Times. Ho was convicted of seeking to boost CEFC’s prospects in Africa by bribing officials in Chad and Uganda. He received a three-year prison sentence for the offense March 25, 2019. The Louisiana investment deal fell through. Hunter Biden told The New Yorker it was “bad luck.” The Wall Street Journal reported that a review of related corporate records showed “no role” for now-President Joe Biden in connection to his son’s relationship with CEFC. And Ye vanished. On Oct. 12, 2018, Reuters reported that Chinese prosecutors accused him of bribing a top Communist Party official. That official pleaded guilty. The Chinese government aggressively censored references to Ye on Chinese social media network WeChat, and researchers at the University of Hong Kong concluded Ye was one of the most censored topics of 2018. Hunter Biden’s work with Ye and Ho wasn’t his only China-linked business work. He also helped start a private equity fund, known as BHR, with a number of partners, including Chinese businessman Jonathan Li. Biden and two other American board members controlled 30 percent of the firm, according to The New York Times, and Chinese investors — including the state-owned Bank of China — controlled the rest. The New Yorker reported that Hunter “did not take an equity stake in BHR Partners until after his father left the White House.” 17 hours ago, Warhippy said: Top level spy? You dont say. What about this one invited to mar a lago? Sorry. "not invited" even though she had an actual invitation as a +1 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-50553805 https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-maralago-china-idUSKBN2082ER As for spying, funny you mention this. Because Trump sure did have some interesting statements made about him and kept some interesting company. Like, it's genuinely interesting how many "mistakes" were made that benefitted Russia, China and the middle east. More so that the person who ended up benefitting more often than not afterwards was....Trump It's amazing almost all of these are different instances in which Trump somehow managed to oops information to foreign nations, or somehow managed to benefit them or outright managed to profit off of them after policy changes to their benefit https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/jan/29/trump-russia-asset-claims-former-kgb-spy-new-book https://www.timesofisrael.com/kgb-groomed-trump-as-an-asset-for-40-years-former-spy-says/ https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/u-s-has-new-intel-manafort-friend-kilimnik-gave-trump-n1264371 https://www.vox.com/2019/9/9/20856915/cnn-trump-russia-spy-putin-cia https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/11/19/trump-first-moscow-trip-215842/ https://www.npr.org/2017/05/15/528511980/report-trump-gave-classified-information-to-russians-during-white-house-visit https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/as-russia-probe-began-trump-called-on-nsa-spy-chief-for-help https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/520362-dont-forget-the-trump-campaign-gave-its-most-sensitive-data-to-a-russian/ But whatever, this is all media bias. Or you don't have time to read it all. or it doesn't matter what happened then it's what matters and happens now. Biden is in charge and blah blah blah. Right? 16 hours ago, Warhippy said: He says ironically ignoring the near dozen links I posted while also posting 2 year old links about patrik ho claiming Hunter Biden and Joe Biden were involved with a Chinese spy yet ignoring the link I posted proving it was a non issue that was almost 3 years more current But ok 16 hours ago, Warhippy said: Keep this in mind. Much like the reasons the steele dossier funding was demanded to be investigated by trump to suggest it was more important than the mueller findings. The people who are suggesting that this is the case are 100% ignoring what the findings of the mueller investigation and by extension the steele dossier found out. When an individual intervenes that many times in their own investigation and then downplays the findings that outright prove a foreign interest helped said individual sweep in to power; while saying it's more important to know who funded it because that's the real issue.... That maybe just maybe the important things are being missed here In 2019, the Mueller investigation concluded that it could not determine any criminal conspiracy between Moscow and the Trump campaign. It also found that Russia had interfered in the election "in sweeping and systematic fashion", and outlined 10 times when Mr Trump possibly impeded the investigation. Following this, the Trump administration announced an investigation into the origins of the inquiry into Russian interference. Mr Trump had long called for such a probe. 16 hours ago, Warhippy said: Sure. The person being investigated who impeded the investigation 10 ish times who swept in to power based on the help of said foreign nation who immediately removed sanctions against said foreign nation has nothing to hide. What really matters is who funded the investigation that found it out It also found that Russia had interfered in the election "in sweeping and systematic fashion", and outlined 10 times when Mr Trump possibly impeded the investigation. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurn Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/politics/legal-expert-explains-why-there-s-no-evidence-to-convict-anyone-much-less-impeach-biden/ar-AA1hpyPp?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=2667cfd8b15c463eabb853b5fe21cf3a&ei=72 " Former federal prosecutor and University of Michigan Law Professor Barbara McQuade walked through the information presented by Republicans in the House Oversight Committee Thursday and whether it is "enough" to lead to conviction or impeachment of President Joe Biden. MSNBC's Chris Jansing played a clip of Rep. Nancy Mace (R-NC) accusing Biden of having an office space that housed a Chinese-aligned company. She also accused Hunter Biden of calling his father the "family's only asset." "Is that what constitutes evidence as you know it?" Jansing asked. "Or was there anything you heard so far today, Barbara, that constitutes evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors?" McQuade said simply, "None, whatsoever." She explained that, when a criminal investigation is started, there must be "predication, and that means sound evidence, articulable evidence from which you believe a crime has been committed that should begin an investigation." McQuade also noted that, with public officials, there's typically the necessity for two pieces of evidence to be submitted before an investigation starts. "Here all we have is some puffery out of the mouth of Hunter Biden," she explained. "Was Hunter Biden trading on his father's name? It appears that he absolutely was shamelessly, but that has nothing to do with Joe Biden himself. So, until they have evidence that Joe Biden was involved in some sort of illegal activity or some sort of activity that compromised his ability to serve as President of the United States, an inquiry is really out of bounds in my view." She also explained that moves like this "diminish the value of what an impeachment is all about, and perhaps that is the goal." On his personal social media site, Donald Trump demanded that the Republicans impeach Biden as a way of retribution. "If every president gets impeached for something, then impeachment means nothing, and so, therefore, the impeachments of Donald Trump we just shrug and say, well, all presidents get impeached. It's all political," she said. Former George W. Bush strategist, Matthew Dowd, called Thursday's hearing "catastrophic" because the witnesses agreed that there wasn't enough evidence to impeach Biden. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since Clinton was exonerated and found not guilty by no less than 3 major investigations. You'll honour that of course. But what about these instances? Just curious.

Can we address this issue as well? https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-clearances-idUSKCN1RD2HU https://www.politico.com/story/2017/09/29/white-house-private-email-nsa-warning-243324 Seems to me that inviting your son in law who magically made $2 billion and his wife, your daughter who was magically made immune to major trade disputes; in to high clearance meetings and knowing that they had access to and accessed high level clearance on personal phones in high level meetings would also be an issue. So do tell. Are we going to apply this universally or? The briefings came soon after President Donald Trump was sworn into office on Jan. 20, and before some top aides, including senior adviser Jared Kushner, used their personal email and phones to conduct official White House business, as disclosed by POLITICO this week. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the destroyer of worlds Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 There are only 4 States where a vacancy cannot be filled by Governor appointment (North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island and Wisconsin) and those vacancies can only be filled by special election. California's Governor has stated he really doesn't want to appoint another Senator since he already did that when Harris took the VP job. He also stated that he would choose a black woman as he went with Padilla (a Latino man) last time. He's also probably going to do is sooner, rather than later due to the razor thin margin Democrats have and her empty seat will give them problems in the Government shutdown debacle with the QOP. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/who-replace-dianne-feinstein-rcna118062 Who will replace Dianne Feinstein in the Senate?
