The economy is growing here in the US, but it's not contributing to the every day American's bottom line. Millions of people are still starving in the "land of plenty". Never mind D.T. or J.B., I say Sabrefan1 for President. I always hope more of my taxes would go to help people in need. This truly is a thoughtful statement.

Bob Long Posted Saturday at 11:01 PM Share Posted Saturday at 11:01 PM 3 hours ago, Sabrefan1 said: Yeah, I think it's insane that Canada doesn't use it's own raw materials to benefit itself and have said as much here on the board more than once. However that doesn't change the fact that it's the US that primarily and heavily benefits from Canada's poor economic decisions. We in the US have a vested interest in things staying exactly as they are. we don't have a great situation up here to attract enough capital to do that. We do some, but nowhere near what we could.

If/When Canada becomes a corporatocracy like here in the US, you'll suddenly find trillions of dollars pouring in, but you'll end up kissing a lot of what you hold dear in your country, goodbye. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see much changing on the horizon to really shift things a whole heck of a lot. We'll probably just ship you guys rare earth metals more than oil at some point but thats about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good lord man, read the room. That attention was not positive attention. It benefited you. When did Trump become a high school teenage girl? Narcissists gonna narcissist I suppose.

The immunity ruling, if it goes his way, isn't going to help his NY cases either. Edited Monday at 01:04 AM by Sabrefan1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way it makes it's way to the federal courts is if they take his case after the NYS appeals courts are exhausted. NYS can slow walk the appeals process or zip it through. Whichever the people in charge decide to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrefan1 Posted Monday at 02:53 AM Share Posted Monday at 02:53 AM ....and the sacrificial lamb is senior Biden aide Anita Dunn. Apparently she didn't let Biden get enough beauty sleep and she worked him too hard preparing for his debate. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/joe-biden-s-disastrous-debate-blamed-on-bad-preparation-exhaustion/ar-BB1paOqA?ocid=msedgdhp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the destroyer of worlds Posted Monday at 04:36 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:36 PM It took them this long to essentially say that official acts while POTUS are official. And illegal, unofficial, acts are illegal. Like really? Months and months when they reacted much much quicker in the Colorado case. Means we are unlikely to see any other trials before the election.

SCOTUS just gave guidance to the lower courts on how to proceed. I'm not thrilled though that it essentially codifies the AG as the president's legal b*tch even though that's been the case now with Obama, Trump, and Biden. I'm only part way through the ruling, but this is my interpretation of it so far. I haven't even gotten to the dissent opinion yet though.

Sabrefan1 Posted Monday at 05:30 PM Share Posted Monday at 05:30 PM As far as I can tell, Trump is in all likelihood still in trouble in Georgia. The federal court cases with Jack Smith are going to litigate the bejesus out of this new "official act" doctrine that the SCOTUS just introduced. What a clusterf*ck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was already delayed enough with the postponements. The cases were never going to beat the November election. This just sets the stage for a whole lotta lawyering now. If Trump somehow loses the election, and the DoJ doesn't give up, his lawyers are going to cost him tens of millions of dollars a year. He'll be paying that out of his pocket though and not with PAC or RNC cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJockitch Posted Monday at 06:21 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:21 PM Man, people are worried about Trump turning the US into a dictatorship, SCOTUS says hold my beer, we already are. They basically stole most regulatory power from the government last week and this week set themselves as the arbiter of the legality of everything the president does. They already told women they don’t have a right to privacy. Biden needs to go, not because he is too old and demented (they both are) but because he has failed to standup to a rogue court who first openly called for the cases they wanted to see, then ignored the wide open corruption as business as usual and then gutted the power of the US government and it’s citizens. It isn’t Trump that is going to be the end of that democracy it is Roberts and Thomas. Amazing how the Republicans continue to hold the significant minority of opinion but significant majority of power and horribly destructive to the entire world that they can’t figure that out. They are barely even considered a democracy anymore IMHO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSVII Posted Monday at 06:34 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:34 PM Does this mean in theory Biden can just order the dissolution of the Supreme Court right now because he has full immunity on unofficial acts? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he loses, MAGA will begin it's decline and eventual death. There's no way that they stay in love with a 2-time loser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
