  1. Putin has to be stopped just like Hitler had to be stopped . Both guilty of crimes against humanity , war criminals.
  2. So Congress and the Courts have to demand laws be enforced , checks and balances.
  3. If Hunter gets a lot of prison time I would think Joe pardons him even if it cost him the election . jmo
  4. So you are saying it isn't with appeals . Again what better system do you propose for the US.
  5. Congress controls immigration that the WH has to approve. So they have to pick up the full cost.
  6. I wonder if Obama has a defamation case , is it his word against another without proof ?
  7. In this country people vote for their elected officials , juries are regular citizens, what other system do you prefer ?
  8. It still takes a unanimous jury to convict in a criminal case. I bet there will be a number of Republican jurors in the Georgia case.
  9. Georgia trial for 19 estimated to take 4-8 months with 150 witnesses. Imagine the legal bills these people face.
  10. At least Trump would never ever lie 🤣
  11. ALF lives 18 miles from Buffalo in the most gerrymandered republican districts of all NYS . As a result of redistricting after the 2020 U.S. Census, Representative Claudia Tenney now has the honor of serving New York’s 24th Congressional district in the 118th Congress. Our sprawling district includes parts of 12 counties, spanning from the North Country, through Central New York, the Finger Lakes Region, and Western New York.
  12. Florida judge rules DeSantis’ redistricting map unconstitutional over impact on Black voters Central to the case is former U.S. Rep. Al Lawson, D-Fla., whose district splintered under the new map. The lawmaker, who is black, had previously enjoyed support from a wide base of Black voters in the district, but he lost his race by 20 points under the new map. Republicans in the Florida legislature had previously introduced a redistricting map that likely would have allowed Lawson to win re-election, but the DeSantis administration put forward its own version of the map and vowed to veto any other. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/florida-judge-rules-desantis-redistricting-map-unconstitutional-impact-black-voters
  13. Professors at Northeastern and Harvard universities conducted a gun survey in 2015 and found that 22% of gun owners who reported obtaining their most recent firearm within the previous two years reported doing so without a background check. For firearms purchased privately, including sales between individuals in person, online or at gun shows, 50% were obtained without a background check. Gun shows can include either licensed dealers or private sellers. So at a gun show, the licensed sellers need to run a background check on buyers, and the non-licensed sellers don’t. https://www.statesman.com/story/news/politics/politifact/2021/04/09/gun-policy-address-joe-biden-exaggerates-background-check-gun-show/7156770002/ Unregulated gun shows can be a magnet for gun traffickers to obtain large quantities of weapons without any background checks. Guns purchased at gun shows are much more likely to be used in criminal activity. https://giffords.org/lawcenter/gun-laws/policy-areas/gun-sales/gun-shows/ Up to 80% of firearms used for criminal purposes were obtained from unlicensed sources, meaning no background check was required. This proposed rule will help address this dangerous problem and greatly expand background checks. https://giffords.org/press-release/2023/08/giffords-applauds-atf-rule-to-expand-background-checks/
  14. Mr. McConnell had a concussion in March when he fell at a Washington hotel during a fund-raising event Then last month, Mr. McConnell froze midsentence during an appearance at his weekly news conference in the Capitol and was briefly escorted away from the microphones to recover. froze up suddenly during a news conference on Wednesday in Covington, Ky., the second such episode he has experienced on camera in recent weeks. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/30/us/politics/mitch-mcconnell-freeze-kentucky.html He really should retire , he does fall a lot , childhood polio
  15. Should all car insurance payers pay for KIA and Hyundai thefts and damage ? Crime committed with stolen cars
  16. The new girl on GMFB is my favorite (jmo) , I started watching again .
  17. The problem is criminals not responsible gun owners , how to solve this problem is the question. Anyone who wants to make money can buy guns at these shows and sell them to criminals.
  18. Biden was advised by a Dr that McConnell is recovering from a concussion and this happens. He should be ok in time.
  19. No ban in good areas like yours just problem regions.
  20. Inflation came down but prices stay very high , except eggs , not good at all. What do politicians say, it's the economy stupid.
