When I try to sincerely ask for an honest reason, he goes off on Russia, Russia, Russia, phone call, impeached twice, classified documents, etc. - all the usual MSM talking points. When I ask about his thoughts on Hunter, and Joey taking bribes he says it is Trumps campaign's disinformation. I asked if he is better off with biden (he's retired) his answer is "nobody is" like that excuses it. I avoid talking to him at all.

I have people I know like that. I usually hesitate to call them friends. While I am glad that Trump is not in office, I would have preferred him to the current administration. I just don't think Trump was a good a president as some others would have been. I did not care for his brash and antagonistic personal behavior, and I strongly disagree with his actions on COVID (he is the one who started the shutdowns) or on guns (bump stocks jump to mind). But at least he had a mind and could speak, even if it was usually bragging.

In the current race, I was leaning towards DeSantis, but lately I have been more and more impressed with Vivek Ramaswamey. Having said that, I should point out that I am not a Republican and do not vote in the primaries. I will not make up my mind until I see who the three parties nominate (Republicans, Democrats, and Libertarians). And my vote will be as much against Biden as for anyone else. I will take into consideration who can beat Biden (if he is the Democrat nominee) as part of my decision process.

I am just curious and too lazy to research it myself. Does anyone know what the federal statute of limitations is on prohibited person in possession of a firearm or lying on the 4473? How about the bribery of a public official statute?

I think this is why they are just slowing down these investigations.

Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidency and WW 2 one of most shameful periods in American history implies Brandon as he condemns the racism expressed in the internment camps of American citizens of Japanese descent.

So is Brandon admitting that Democrats have long been the leaders in racism in America?

I tend to agree that the Roosevelt Presidency was one of the most shameful periods in American history (second to Lincoln's), though I doubt Biden would agree with my reasoning.

I doubt that Biden will admit that Democrats lead the world in racism, but he just proved again that he is. He mentions the 120,000 Japanese interred and forgets the 65,000 Italians and Germans who were also interred and had their property confiscated from them. Is it because they were white or because it says there was another reason than race (like being suspected enemies of the US) that caused the interments? Of course, the interments were wrong no matter what the cause, but mentioning only one and the the other groups is racist in itself.

From the story:

I’m a proud fem queer nonbinary drag artist

I am now thoroughly confused as to what it is. And I say it because I have no idea what gender it is even claiming to be. I understand queer to mean simply interested in same sex relationships. I thought the "fem" was an abbreviation for female, which combined with queer would mean it is a lesbian. but drag is men who wear women's clothes and make-up to appear female. I did not think it was possible to be a lesbian drag artist, as that is the same as a female singer or dancer.

And if I am this confused over what it is claiming, can it really be any less confused itself?

Brandon wants to limit gun owners to "eight bullets in a round".

If the legacy media had any decency they would demand this sick old man resign and get the long term medical care he needs.

They can't until the time passes that would allow Cackles two full terms in addition to riding out Bidet's. So look for 25th Amendment action after Jan 20, 2023.

I doubt they are waiting for that. The 25th Amendment cannot change her time in office. Officially she only would become ACTING president and not president. There is no limit to the time you can spend as acting president other than the rest of the term of the person you are acting for.

My personal opinion is that the controllers misjudged her when they selected her as VP and now she is Biden's insurance because even they don't want her in the office. Watch Jill try to discretely become more involved with the day to day stuff and nominally Joe keeps the office. There is historical precedent for this.

You are correct in that the 25th Amendment doesn’t change her time in office. That is specified by the 22nd Amendment. Thus my statement that Biden won’t resign nor be removed before he has served more than 2 years. The only way Harris is limited to one full term is if Biden dies, becomes incapacitated or otherwise removed from office before Jan 20, 2023.

https://constitutioncenter.org/the-cons ... dment-xxii

No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of President more than once.

I apologize and you are correct. I missed the wording in the 22nd of "acted as president". I was thinking of it as time served as president and thinking the 25th would not affect it because it doesn't make her actually president. Thanks for the correction.

MIRV ammo!

Isn't that called buckshot??

Have to use 000 buckshot. Twelve gauge 00 buckshot is 9 pellets per round.

Everyone seems to have jumped to a conclusion that this was sabotage. Now people are trying to figure out who did it. Compare this to the recent unpleasantness that started in China. The whole world tried to argue it was natural and then finally said it might be an accidental loss.

The funny thing is when I consider all the known facts (at least known by me), Occam says it was just an accident. We know Russia has not been in the habit of maintaining things well (look at their military vehicles in Ukraine) an pipelines take constant maintenance, especially those exposed to salt water and cold. And we all know that when pipelines are not properly maintained, they can spring leaks or explode.

I think it was just an accident and most governments and MSM are taking advantage of it for propaganda purposes because they can.

Funny you mention that. Because that is exactly where my worst case scenario is where I will start shooting. I honestly think many people have that exact same line too, which is why I said I would hate to be in any police or military group trying to collect guns.

But I have other set points where I would also start fighting. Many of them are based on things that have happened in history, especially to the Jewish people. I was taught at a very young age that we would "Never Again" allow the holocaust to occur. I took it to heart and still believe it to this day.

And I have thought about my rules of engagement and how I would fight. I have also decided that I would publish my rules so that anyone who supports me will obey them. I know what is an acceptable military target and what is not (and some of them are not what people would think). It would definitely start as what is now called asymmetric warfare (we used to call it guerilla warfare).

Valid military targets include ALL government employees and elected officials, at any level of government, with the exception of medical personnel and chaplains (if they stay unarmed). And if you want to see how bad our government has gotten with interfering in our lives, look at who are government employees. Ironically, I was discussing this with a friend at work and he agreed with this assessment. Then I reminded him that both he and I were government employees right now. He had never considered that part of it, even after someone flew an airplane into a government leased building where our agency has an office (that person's target was the IRS office but it did drive home who is a military target to me).

Any government facility other than hospitals is also a valid target, so why do we have child care facilities in federal buildings? Why is the Army Futures Command, responsible for developing new weapons, located on a college campus that also has a high school on it and child care/development centers on it? Non-governmental facilities that are valid targets include transportation centers, power distribution facilities, water distribution facilities, communication facilities (both media and telephone/internet), financial centers, and any factory - but especially anything that makes war material.

And the worst part of this is that when you start thinking about this, look at what we attacked during World War II. Then look at how vulnerable our country is to an attack right now.

I keep wondering why no one, even here, is laughing at or pointing out the sheer audacity of anyone claiming someone is attacking our democracy. We do not have a democracy to attack and I, personally, hope we never do. What we, the people trying to be free, are doing is fighting against one group trying to take over our country by convincing the less well educated that our democracy is under attack. Everyone knows that in a democracy the majority rules, and the less well educated believe that it should be that way. They have probably never heard the phrase "the tyranny of the majority" used to describe a democracy.

We live in a constitutional republic where the majority has to obey the rules, even if they are the majority and want to do something else. The Democratic party is intent on destroying the Constitution because it limits their power when they have the majority. They have demonstrated their desire to do this with all the rules changes in the Senate that emphasized that a simple majority is not good enough. Our mainstream media is complicit in this destruction of our way of life every time they repeat the line about someone attempting to attack our democracy.

I know that some people will comply with the government no matter what. I fully understand that some people think the place and way to fight is in the courts. I have advised people to do this before when dealing with police officers on a traffic stop or similar encounter. I have told them you will not win the fight in the street. I was correct if you are alone. But Franklin was also correct about us all hanging together or we shall all hang separately.

My personal belief is that the time is rapidly approaching, if not here already, when the fight will take place in the streets. I do not believe 03Lightningrocks is correct in his 90% assessment, but I cannot say how far wrong he is. I think it will be based on what is the event to touch off the fight. I have my line in the sand where I know I will fight and how I will do it. I hope all of you have thought of what you will do in various circumstances and when you will fight instead of comply.

That is, they want a bunch of well meaning, protestors (Armed is preferred, but unarmed will do) to be tricked into doing something that is in some way illegal so that they can arrest them and have a Kangaroo court trial just in time for the mid-terms.
Oh, and cry on TV about how scared they were by the guy carrying a flag pole and wearing a buffalo head dress.

But seriously - they want to cause an incident so that they can exploit it and paint us all as criminals.

I can't help but think of the old saying: Beware of what you wish for, you might get it. I do not think there will be another riot put on by right wing extremists as there was on January 6th. If it was an insurrection, it must have been the most poorly planned insurrection in history since almost no one was armed. The next time there is an insurrection in the US, that mistake will not be made again. Looking at our history (which some do not understand and are bound to repeat), I see the Jan. 6th riot as a modern day version of the Boston Massacre. Only one was killed this time, instead of 5, but it was the warning that the government will kill protestors. It took six years for that to build up into the revolution, but the time frame is being escalated now. Many forget that the first battle of the revolution was fought when the government went to seize the citizen's weapons stored in common armories in Lexington and Concord. We are seeing the push now to try to seize our guns.

I would hate to be in any police or military group that started trying to seize our weapons of war. They will get them lead first this time, much as they did in 1776. This was repeated here in Texas when they tried to seize the cannon in Gonzales. It appears destined to happen again now.

I guess no one has pointed out to Biden that the F-15 does him no good at all if I shoot the pilot on his way to work. A pistol is all it takes.

Paladin wrote: ↑Mon Jul 11, 2022 7:17 am Joe Biden’s Approval Rating Sinks to Historic Low of 29 Percent

Just 29 percent of voters approve of Biden, while 58 percent disapprove. Only 19 percent of independents approve of Biden. Sixty-seven percent disapprove. Among Hispanics, just 36 percent approve. Forty-eight percent disapprove.

Only 63 percent of Democrats approve of Biden, down from 88 percent since last July. Biden’s approval has dropped five points since June 20. Just 36 percent of Democrats want Biden on the 2024 ticket.

A majority of voters believe Biden is unfit to be president and doubt his mental ability. Sixty-two percent say he is not fit to be president because he is too old. Fifty-nine percent are worried about his mental and physical fitness.

There is an old saying that you can fool all of the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time. I believe that this is proof of that, especially if you include a corollary to it: The longer you try to fool people, the less you will succeed at fooling them.

I wonder what the lowest approval rating will be. He has already set a new record low - just a personal record though, so he can keep trying to get worse. Just what is the number you can fool all of the time?

Since WaPo and NYT have firmly established themselves as Anti-American institutions, you have to wonder about the timing here. Are trying to prepare the way for Hillary?

Now that the media has fostered a massive response against Russia, are they working to destroy our entire nation in WW3?

I think they know better than to try anything with Hillary. And I do think they are working to destroy our nation as a nation, preferring the one world liberal new order government. It would not surprise me to find that they believe this can be accomplished through WW3, though I thought they were going to try to bring it about through world economic collapse and food shortages/riots.

Whether she is qualified or not, if a black woman is appointed to SCOTUS, she will forever be handicapped with a large portion of the public for being an "affirmative action" appointee.

I doubt anyone would, but I would love to see someone file a discrimination complaint against Biden for the lack of consideration.
