A little history and politics lesson Lou since you still can't comprehend.

The 2000 Commodity Futures Modernization Act is what deregulated over the counter derivatives such as bundled mortgages. That is ultimately what led to the 2007-2009 crash. That act was passed by a full Republican Congress dumbass.

Now I'm not saying it was all the Republicans fault like you would, because I don't lay blame all on one side for out of context bullshit like you. Deregulation in the financial sector had been happening since the 70s. Both parties passed legislation to accomplish this. Both parties were at fault, as both of them got their dicks wet by high powered corporate lobbyists that scratch each others' backs to get things done and make all of them a ton of money.

You really need to stop it with the bullshit that one side is all good and the other is all bad. That is not how the real-world works.

"There were many causes of the crisis, with commentators assigning different levels of blame to financial institutions, regulators, credit agencies, government housing policies, and consumers, among others.[5] Two proximate causes were the rise in subprime lending and the increase in housing speculation. The percentage of lower-quality subprime mortgages originated during a given year rose from the historical 8% or lower range to approximately 20% from 2004 to 2006, with much higher ratios in some parts of the U.S."

So the SCOTUS will hear Trump's claim of immunity. This is a slippery slope that we've come to that I really wish we hadn't come to.

I know that many anti-Trumpers wanted the trial to happen before the election, but I don't think it matters. We seem to be at a point to where if the election were tomorrow I think the outcome would be exactly the same as it would be in November, and nothing that happens between now and then will really sway the outcome either way. Even if he went to jail, it wouldn't matter. People's minds are made up on where they stand in the Trump v Biden standoff, and no one is switching sides even if one of them goes to jail or if one of them is diagnosed with dementia.

...and I think he will win the election if he ends up running against Biden, which seems to be inevitable because Biden wants to run again and the Dems aren't going to nominate someone else.

Amazing that there is even a question worth deciding that a president can be immune from the illegal act of attempting to stop the transfer of power as laid out in the constitution.

There may be a question of fact (did he or did he not try to stop the transfer) but the question of law (is he immune if they find he did try) should never have been heard. The appellate court answered that clearly in their decision.

Like it or not, it has to be asked. Otherwise if it was standard that criminal charges can stem from presidential action, Bush Jr and his crew could be brought up on war crimes and toss in Obama for his use of drones. Fact is, if we consider the criminality of actions while occupying the office of President it can be a problem internationally.

To the economy not growing at that steady rate, I think there are a handful of years in the last 100 where the GDP shrunk for the year. I believe one ore two were during Reagan. Not sure where you got that consistent 3% growth. If you want consistent GDP growth, consistent labor participation is required and steady increase in population. When one or both hit a decline, something else must be added to continue to the growth. A big thing that propelled the US to larger GDP growth was the consistent addition of women in the work force.

A second thing is that economies are a lot like engines. They can be stalled and they can overheat. I not an expert by any stretch, but I believe after the debacle of the near depression Obama's people did their absolute best to encourage slow and steady growth to prevent the economy from overheating. Trump's massive corporate tax cuts really started this last overheat we all felt.

Those are excellent points, and were addressed fully in the appellate decision. If they were really serious about the issue, they would have expedited the review and decision. As it is, they have just delayed judgement as the defendant as sought to do all along.
The case involves specific facts about his efforts to prevent the constitutional transfer of the office...not actions he may have taken in defense of the country or discharging his duties (as he saw them) as commander-in-chief.
They could have easily let the appeals court ruling stand.

They have also prevented timely decisions on whether or not his actions preclude him from being on the ballot as some states have ruled.

That just proves how the efforts by the defendant (and the Court) have been successful in delaying,to the detriment of the country.

Over 2 months ago in December, the Special Counsel asked the Court for an expedited review and answer.
In Bush v. Gore it took 4 days.
They refused, and we are now in the same place we would have been then...waiting for a Supreme Court hearing and decision.
Nothing has been gained except giving the defendant what he desires. Delay; which is not good for a country looking towards an election.

Guess I just slightly disagree, and will post this to return to in a couple months. There is a very pressing need to expedite.

The grand jury indictment in the Special Counsel's case charged him with:
conspiracy to defraud the United States;
conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding;
obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding;
and conspiracy against rights.

The defendant is asserting absolute immunity to do those things (if proven) as president of the United States.

That question could have been taken up by the Supreme Court in December, instead of running through the appellate court, and we would be where we are now...without giving in to his desire for delay. The delay could push trial out past the election date, where if he controls the executive branch he can shut down the process.

Besides all of this being total and complete bullshit, maybe your guys should've acted a year or two earlier, eh?? They purposely waited to martyr Trump during the election year, thinking they could maximize their impact on the election.

I know most of you libs can't think beyond your next meal, but you will rue the day if SCOTUS says that Trump/POTUS has no immunity, and Jack wins his case (though to be clear, Trump will definitely win on appeal). Republicans will be coming hard at all of your benchwarmers. It just won't be POTUS who doesn't have immunity. Think sanctuary cities and states. Think about illegals who murdered someone who lives in a sanctuary city or state, or was let go after a crime in a sanctuary city or state. You have major exposure to illegal activities. That's just one example.

Remember that fleeting victory Harry Reid delivered for you a few years back? How did that go for Merrick Garland?

Let's look at a few seats contested:

West Virginia - Joe Manchin retired. No way in hell Democrats hold this seat.
Ohio - Sherrod Brown is a 3-term Senator, but Ohio is getting a lot redder. Might hold the seat, might not.
Montana - Democrats have a better shot at holding this as long as they don't face a Trumpy nominee
Arizona - real wildcard with Independent Kristyn Sinema, Democrat Ruben Gallego and Republican Kari Lake. This would be almost half a pickup if this goes from I to a more solid D
Maryland - Larry Hogan's entry into the race means national Democrats now have to put money in a race that should be a solid Democrat 99% of the time. Don't think Hogan wins, but he's much more well known than whoever gets the Democratic nomination

Texas (Ted Cruz) and Florida (Rick Scott) might flip, but we're talking about states that are a lot more solid red.

Not sure on the rest but Gallego leads in head to head over lake and leads by a bit when Sinema run as an independent. He is pretty well liked across the state. People got tired of Lake when and like most others were asked to pony up the proof of meddling and presented nothing. We even had the joke of an audit performed at our fairgrounds.

Trump said: "I will not give one penny to any school that has a vaccine mandate or mask mandate."

He means it in general, not specifically for VA. And to be clear, he may not necessarily be referring to any schools that are currently requiring these mandates right now (I have no idea if there are any), but rather to prevent some from doing so in the future - when the next Covid variant inevitably raises its head.

Rocky Boiman had a good take on our glorious MSM yesterday.

The leftist "print" giants, now digital, are simply FAN sites. And the Networks only air content similar to what, say the B10 Network, provides. Very little negativity that involves their "teams". Same can be said for Conservative media.

The fascinating thing is how they ALL are in lockstep together on everything political. The entire system is simply a coordinated web of Democrat propaganda and Globalist harbingers. I mean, Morning Joe is nothing but a constant Dem Party campaign ad. It's not even debatable.

The disturbing thing is, that it does nothing but polarize our population.....the wall that divides us is built taller and wider daily.

The members on the same side of the aisle as the President will cheer wildly at everything the President says, no matter how inane.

Expediency? If they waited to get money from the shipping company, it could be years before construction started. I certainly hope the Feds go after the company and their insurance carriers to recoup some of the cost, but it won’t be nearly enough for the full amount.

Ohio is not going to be in play for the Presidental race, but will very much be in play for the Senate race between Sherrod Brown and Bernie Moreno. Maryland is another state that won't be in play for the Presidental race but its Senate seat is very much on the line because Larry Hogan is leading in the polls against both Democratic candidates in their primary race.

Frankly I see a situation where Biden wins a close race, the House flips back to Democrats but the Senate flips Republican - meaning any potential Supreme Court vacancies get a lot more difficult to fill for Biden under such a scenario. Of course, that could be negated if a Senator like Lisa Murkowski flips from Republican to Independent; she's become more disillusioned with the modern GOP.

Totally get your point but I hold presidential races differently than congressional races. When I vote for a presidential candidate, I am voting for someone who will represent this country both domestically and to the world the values of this country. They are the face of the nation. Sadly, the two candidates we have are laughing stocks. One seems to live in a courtroom and the other should be in a retirement home. Neither candidate is presidential so neither will get my vote. I also live in a deep red district where even MTG could win my district. There are others I am sure who live in blue districts where AOC would win in their district. My vote means nothing thanks to the electoral college. Hopefully someday it will be removed so every single vote carries the same value. Sadly, politics will never let that happen.

I will be interesting to see if anyone can post in support or deny those things are not rapidly expanding. I am guessing that IF anyone does, it will be, "But, what about Orangeman? Orange man bad".

I just watched a Kamala Harris video in which she was saying something incredibly stupid (par for the course; in this case that women "weren't allowed to have brackets until 2022"), and it was another reminder that Joe Biden is a million years old and she is a complete idiot. Surely the Democrats will at least get rid of her as Biden's running mate, right? Right?

As much as I dislike Trump, the possibility of having her as President over the next 5 years just might make me hold my nose and vote for him. Honestly think even democrats will be pushing the 25th Amendment before Biden finishes his second term. And here we go, hello madam President. Hell no!

BARKLEY: "First of all, the border is a joke. The border is a joke. They have these migrants bussed up to New York. They have them on camera kicking and beating cops. They beat up these two cops. They were out of jail in 24 hours. Two days later, they caught them robbing Macy's. They beat up cops. How are you out of jail in 24 hours?"

SMITH: "But it's woke culture. With woke culture, you have folks on the left endorsing a more lenient legal system. And obviously, folks on the right going crazy about it, calling for law and order. Who do you side with, considering our iniquitous history? What's going on today? And who the candidates are in terms of Biden and Trump, in all likelihood, running for office? What do you do, Charles? Who do you vote for?"

BARKLEY: "First of all, we need law and order, Stephen A."

SMITH: "I agree... How about the $53 million in prepaid credit cards for migrants?"

BARKLEY: "That's ridiculous. I mean, come on, man."

SMITH: "Black folks and Latinos been in the streets. Minorities have been in the streets, homeless, and starving for years. We never got, I never got anything like that. I grew up on welfare."

BARKLEY: "It's just not right, and it's just not fair."

Looks like Biden is again trying to forgive student loan debt. Didn’t the SCOTUS stop that last time he tried? What makes him think he can get away with it this time?

Other than a pitiful attempt to buy votes, what’s the end game here? It does nothing to address the real problem. College tuition is way too expensive. Does his attempt simply tell new students to not worry about their coming college debt? It will eventually be forgiven, i.e. paid for by other taxpayers?

Did I also hear that there’s no income limit on whose debt can be forgiven? So people with six figure incomes can get their debt forgiven? Isn’t that a bit of a break for the rich?

It's been a little over 15 years since Obama turned the key on his "Fundamentally Transform America" agenda. Other than the Trump "speed bump", things are progressing nicely. In fact, with the vastly effective propaganda machine in the MSM as allies, the American people have been (especially our young folks) conditioned to slowly accept Marxist style progressive ideology. The political climate is ripe for these anti American types to safely reveal some of the inner workings of this " Fundamental Transformation".

Speaking of "marxist ideology" reminds me that:


On Sunday, Representative Michael R. Turner (R-OH), chair of the House Intelligence Committee, said it is “absolutely true” that Republican members of Congress are parroting Russian propaganda. “We see directly coming from Russia attempts to mask communications that are anti-Ukraine and pro-Russia messages, some of which we even hear being uttered on the House floor,” he said on CNN’s State of the Union.

https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/april-8-2024

It appears that Russian propaganda efforts are again being successful with the Republican leaders of our country.

Part of the problem today is that when people consume media they don't agree with, they tent to label said media as extreme and in the opposite direction to which hey favor. This is really the case for everything. This is a time when everyone likes to think they are centric, they could very well be centric, but their words say otherwise. Every negative opinion lumps people/media or whatever to the extreme.

Nobody can accept that an organization or a person could be central or leans right or left, when that person or organization takes a stance or stances that go against their own beliefs.

Well, there's no mistake where NPR lies, a tax-funded organization no less. From the article:

"It still happens, but often now the trajectory of the conversation is different. After the initial “I love NPR,” there’s a pause and a person will acknowledge, “I don’t listen as much as I used to.” Or, with some chagrin: “What’s happening there? Why is NPR telling me what to think?”

In recent years I’ve struggled to answer that question. Concerned by the lack of viewpoint diversity, I looked at voter registration for our newsroom. In D.C., where NPR is headquartered and many of us live, I found 87 registered Democrats working in editorial positions and zero Republicans. None. "

I suspect this House session will go down as one of the most unproductive in history.
In addition to having the majority party replacing their own speaker (and they may do it again if MTG has her way), they look like puppets taking orders from a private citizen under 91 felony charges and going on trial on Monday.
Meanwhile, the world is burning. They had a great opportunity with the bipartisan bill from the Senate, which included their wish list for addressing the border challenges, to get some aid to Ukraine.
Instead, they let Trump pull their string, kill the deal, and Kiev just lost their power station.

The Senate could’ve separated the border bill from other spending (as it was sent from the House). Chuck didn’t, it failed. It’s the Senate Ds fault.

AZ AG is blocking enforcement. AZ will have the chance to fix the old law. Fake problem.

House asked for border issues to be addressed in Ukraine bill. Wouldn't take it up without them.
So...bipartisan Senate guys work to give them that.
Give it to them, send it to them...and Trump calls and says don't pass it.

And now it's the Dems fault. Do Republicans ever take responsibility for their own actions? (rhetorical)

No doubt, Trump is a POS by nearly every possible measure. An absolute abhorrent and morally bankrupt individual.

However, he is the POTUS nominee for the party that can slam the brakes on this daily acceleration of O'Biden's "Fundamentally Transform America" reality. The stark contrast in policy has to be paramount when voting '24.

I had also voted for McCain and Romney, but the Drumpf was a bridge too far for me. I know I'm still too woke for XuperMAGA and his ilk.

I don't know what possible angle you are trolling me on, but linking me to "MAGA" is absolutely absurd. Do it again and it gets really weird.

As far as "too woke"? Nobody here can make that assumption because NONE of you progressive lemmings ever dare to post ANYTHING in support of this O'Biden insanity.

100% only Orangeman BAD.

Most people don’t like either, which is why you don’t see support of what Biden is doing either. I, like many, won’t go to the polls in November because I’m not going to support either of this abhorrent candidates. You keep saying policy policy… all trump has done is identity politics but on the complete other side. He doesn’t actually stand for anything, except for himself.


What We need is an actual functioning government, which has not been around in quite a while. What we don’t need is 4 more years of Biden or 4 more years of “revenge” politics that trump is after.

We need less mtg, aoc, gaetz, Cori bush etc and more people like hogans, beshear etc that reach across the aisle, compromise and get shit done.

Are you kidding me? Policy is everything and 100% will shape American society in this critical moment in history.

Do you not see the Progressive Left agenda that is "Fundamentally Transforming America"? The Socialist ideology that is dominant in this White House is blatantly on FULL DISPLAY.

WTF am I missing here? The direction and future of this Country has CLEAR DIVISION. The waiting game for anyone here....or anywhere, that can support what this O'Biden "Transformation" is just non-existent. It is patiently indefensible.

Is there ANYWAY, that you guys can engage in a serious conversation of IDEAS?

There is no "serious conversation" here or anywhere. Progressive leaning folks like you simply REFUSE to engage in ANY debate that involves a challenge of policy. As soon as any one of you make your support of this Marxist crap known....you will be under extreme scrutiny.

As I stated, there is no policy with trump. It’s identity politics but on the extreme opposite side of the left.

That said, it was good to see Trump and Johnson seemingly on the same page yesterday. That felt like progress to me.

"Childish Names?" This political climate is SO polarized, that it is nearly impossible to not call out the supporters of this Progressive Left Tsunami. Most rational folks would choose different description of words, IF there was any courage in these kind of forums......to voice support of these obvious, and intentional, destructive policies.
