    Should a POTUS (any POTUS) be granted immunity from prosecution for crimes committed while in office?

    Nice word salad. Here’s some common sense questions for you: should the federal reserve be subject to political influence? Should the potus be able to operate above the law? You speak of law abiding social order. Perhaps your walk can match your talk. Edited - previous was too hostile...

    Should a POTUS (any POTUS) be granted immunity from prosecution for crimes committed while in office?

    I honestly do not follow what you are trying to say. I would be against presidential immunity regardless of who it was or what the allegations are. Furthermore, impeachments are political, not judicial. You can be guilty of a crime and not impeached, or not guilty and successfully impeached...

    Should a POTUS (any POTUS) be granted immunity from prosecution for crimes committed while in office?

    A big part of this is him stacking the scotus with boot lickers. Combine that with his assertion that a president is immune from prosecution…he’s basically trying to combine 2 of the 3 branches of government. That’s the problem. What if the scotus sides with Trump? Can you imagine what that...

    Should a POTUS (any POTUS) be granted immunity from prosecution for crimes committed while in office?

    This x’s infinity. All you Trump supporters: ask yourself how the hell we even got here discussing this. This is scary ass shit. Yet here we are. This is why he cannot be in the White House again.

    Trump on Trial!

    I also said the juries will determine his literal crimes.

    You saw everything I posted earlier in this thread about Trump’s Russian associations hiding-in-plain-sight? You essentially mention Putin as a world concern, but vote for the guy who defends him?

    What is so terrible right now that another 4 years of it would drive you away?

    This is objectively true, but not always moral. I can’t speak for anyone else, but I’d rather die with a clean conscience than live with a guilty one. ☮️

    One of the coolest things I saw in media today

    I’m not suggesting all the protesters have their heads screwed on straight. We agree they have a right to do so whether or not we agree with them, so long as they remain peaceful.

    And the Iraq war was a neocon mistake. If the Israeli's take-away from it was our tacit approval of the civilian/combatant ratio, then the protests are still warranted.

    One of the coolest things I saw in media today

    The first causality of war is truth. Israel is giving those numbers. There’s reports it’s been as high as 20:1 (cited below). There’s reports Israel is blocking humanitarian relief. Who do we believe? I suspect if we knew the facts for certain, we’d agree more than not...

    I’ll further submit that claiming that the act of protesting the genocide equals antisemitism or support of terrorism meets the definition of authoritarianism. https://www.mediaite.com/politics/texas-governor-greg-abbott-declares-these-protestors-belong-in-jail/

    One of the coolest things I saw in media today

    I see similarities in Israel vs hamas with the decision to nuke Japan. Is annihilating civilians ever justified? Why didn’t we do the same thing in Vietnam? Maybe it has to do with reason why you’re there in the first place? Japan attacked us but the VC did not perhaps? “If we’d lost the...

    Trump on Trial!

    This isn’t McCarthyism where innocent people get caught up in a wide net. This is kind of the opposite where the monster is so rich and powerful that he can insulate himself from allegations while his immediate circle takes the fall for him. Actual crimes were committed as evidenced by the...

    What's goin' on with everybody

    I’m a huge fan of the NCAA basketball tournament. Love watching some small school get in or watching a number one seed get knocked off early. You just never know.

    Trump on Trial!

    Then why have so many in Trump’s orbit actually plead guilty? If several of Biden’s attorneys and several more of his appointees PLEAD guilty to crimes, you’d say none of that reflects on Biden? If it’s all bullshit charges, why are his people doing time? On this week’s trial I’ll agree...

    Still using CDs ?

    I’ve got a nice turn table and a McIntosh amp etc. I’ve got the audiophile thing. I appreciate vinyl, and all things analog. Just prepping for the inevitable downsizing as I get older. Digital is getting better and analog is less of an advantage now imho.
