Gorsuch is making some good points here. He asks: "For every first term president, can't every action he takes be seen as in service of his own reelection."
There is a serious issue here, and it's about what are "official acts" and what aren't. Seems to me the SCt is going to send it back to the trial judge to make a determination on what alleged Trump actions were "official acts" and what were "private acts." The devil will be in the details of that decision - how to decide that issue. For example: "actions should be considered official acts if they arguably fall within the President's powers." That would be a huge Trump win. On the other hand, a decision like "actions that are undertaken for a primarily personal electoral motive should be considered private acts" would be a huge win for the Special Counsel.
This Supreme Court is full of idiots, lead by Alito. He's basically arguing, because it might rain here, you should consider evacuating into a hurricane. Some of his arguments were astoundingly stupid. I would have never thought the handmaiden might be the smartest of them all.

The Dems thought the lawfare plot would hurt him. It had the opposite effect (not that Biden's terribleness isn't doing the most to help him). It still doesn't mean it isn't a PITA to have to go to court and pay millions of dollars defending himself.
Certainly a PITA, but it's helping him, and that offsets it some at the expense of trust in our government. I'm not sure how much is actually coming out of his pockets, but I know he is getting a ton of money donated from it, too. If the Dems really thought that, then they're very unaware of reality. The idea that there's a giant conspiracy is laughable, but I'd concede that there's probably a boatload of people getting away with some of the things they go after trump for. Some people still believe his ridiculous belief that 6 states all conspired to rig the election against him. Those people need help.

This is a pivot. You said it is not hurting him. You don't know that?
He's the one who constantly says it's helping him. Him and right wing media. I never claimed anything, but that his followers don't care if he contradicts himself. That way he gets the cake and eats it, too.

How do you know if it's hurting him or not? You can't imply that either
Look at my original post. I quote the source, who happens to be trump. The whole point was he plays both angles, and they eat it up, without the sense to notice the contradiction.

Both can be true. And then there's that little thing of pesky trials and money wasted.
You're implying that they thought the lawfare plot would hurt him, but it didn't? It's laughable to believe that after his supporters say Russia, Russia, Russia every third post, that the deep state made a bungle thinking they'd turn on him, but didn't. 🤣

trump tweets 'Americans can see through what these liberals are doing. This is lawfare, and the real election interference!', and MAGA loves it. 10 minutes later, Trump goes on TV, and says "Americans know this is a hoax, and it's making me do great. Just look at the polls". Maga Loves it. Well which is it? Being logical, if the 'real election interference' is going so well for you, wouldn't you want more? I'd feel like a sheep if I couldn't spot the contradiction in that.

Tell me again how everyone else is biased.
Most people are. that's the point I was making. The problem is you're caught in the everything has to be this or that crowd. If it's not from Fox, then it's from some equally bad liberal sources. If like he said, it's 10-1 liberal MSM, then that's at least more choice. It's funny my analysis of MSM makes you think I'm being biased. They have you right on the hook, where they like you.

The MSM has a significant and obvious liberal bias. With the exception of Fox News. The score is something like 10 to 1 liberal bias but the left pretends its a tie game. What I still can't wrap my head around is how did current day liberals transform from traditional liberal beliefs, cynics, and critics of big government to lovers of it?
The better question is how did everyone develop the need to only want to consume biased media? I get it takes a long time to research everything on our own, but it's better than gobbling down propaganda. Either way, I don't think being bombarded by liberal media really changes any conservative minds anyways. Fox has good ratings, because their viewers won't watch anything else.

If this is a roundabout way of calling me a deplorable, I'd prefer you just be direct.

Just gloss over the fact they were there to pressure Mike Pence to "do the right thing" by breaking the law, and initiate the fake electors plot(ie the coup to subvert the election). The right wing MSM has devised hundreds of ways to distract people from acknowledging that's what was happening. Hiding behind the violence is probably the worst way.

Of Course, DNC Has Quietly Been Paying Biden's Legal Fees
JOHN SEXTON
If you've heard any of the talking points coming out of the Biden camp in the last few weeks, you've probably heard the one about Trump's legal bills. But it turns out that even as the Biden campaign and the DNC were making that case, the DNC was also paying Biden's legal bills.
Here's Biden's campaign finance chairman Rufus Gifford appearing on MSNBC Sunday. "Every single dime that you give the Biden-Harris election campaign, we spend talking to voters," he said. He added, "We are not spending money on legal bills." This clip of Gifford saying all of that was posted on YouTube by the DNC along with links so people could make donations.
But even as they were making this case, the DNC was in fact spending nearly $2 million on Biden's lawyers.

Please take note hypocrites. Being against EITHER guy doing something, regardless of party, is how you fight Washington corruption.

Right. Just like an audio recording of Trump saying that he grabs women by the ***** ended him.
People tend to not give a ***** about deplorable behavior when the other candidate is busy calling THEM deplorable.
He didn't call them deplorables until AFTER they supported a deplorable. Do you disagree that supporting a deplorable is deplorable?

Even if you ignore the obvious implications of impropriety, how can you think that investing Saudi money in America could possibly end up being a good thing for American workers. It's even dumber than trickle down.

There's no way out of this "hole". The situation is beyond repair. There's no will in Washington with either major political party to do anything. Nothing will be done until everything blows up. Then it will be too late. Just make sure you're prepared in every way possible to be as self-sufficient as possible and not dependent on the government for anything because they won't be there to help you.
I can't believe that there are still people out there who listen to the politicians who pretend there is a way to "fix" this. I believe the interest payments are now more than all our DOD spending, and is about a quarter of a million dollars debt per taxpayer. While people are busy getting angry over "entitlements", they aren't realizing that they're going to lose EVERYTHING, not just the entitlements. Let's see how great the economy is doing after the 10th consecutive default.

Iran(America's enemy) attacks Israel, with little to no casualties. The GQP immediately signals that aid is crucial, and will be first thing on the docket. Russia(GQP's ally) INVADES sovereign nation Ukraine, and MJ mulls over the idea of floating a loan with private citizen trump. Why even have a House, if it's controlled by one UNELECTED citizen, who supports Putin.

Yep. I'm just here keeping useful idiots company while ignoring them.
They don't seem to like that very much.
Admits he's trolling, and they still won't admit his view on Billsy is projection. "I could shoot someone on 5th Avenue"=welcome to my cult.

Unfortunately, I agree. If it was one wave by Iran, Israel could have sucked that up and said the Dome worked and stopped things there. Now it's attacks from Iran, Hezbollah, and Lebanon. Other countries are now being drawn in, and it's only just started. This is going to get crazy, it already is. This is bad, guys...
I get how Israel was incensed about the terror attack on them, but it was incredibly naive of them to think they can route out terrorism in the area, considering they're literally surrounded by enemies, including ones they can't even reach by ground troops. Terror attacks are their school shootings. Unfortunately, they're part of the uneasy peace, that just have to be accepted. While the West is with Israel, are they really with Israel in the sense of an all-out conflagration? I don't think a military 'victory' is even possible for them if this becomes a major conflict. You'd just end up with mass destruction of the entire Middle-East. Their next move is a HUGE move. I'm watching Mark Esper right now, and he doesn't even seem to have a grasp on what could/should happen next. He's almost guaranteeing a retaliation by Israel, which triggers another strike by Iran. It feels like the collective Arab leaders are the only ones with a real chance to cool this down.

Hopefully he was able to talk Bibi down from retaliating and escalating. This could get really out of control. For everyone here, stock up on supplies. Prices are going to go skyrocket within days if this escalates.
John Bolton was exactly as you'd think. He was all about massive retaliation. Adam Kinzinger brought up the point, that eventually you'll have a nuclear Iran, and the tipping point is right now. Lots of rockets coming in from Lebanon. Is it even possible to maintain the current level of escalation, and is peace even possible long-term? Biden has failed with lesser sanctions. trump failed to maintain the nuclear deal. Congress has failed with aid. Would ANY of these policies have worked in an area bent on the destruction of Israel? At BEST, the harshest sanctions maintain an uneasy peace ripe for expanding terrorism. I'm not sure there's any solutions short of a massive inevitable showdown.
10 minutes ago, phypon said:Reported that Hezbollah popping off now. Another wave of 80 drones incoming within the next 12 minutes.
I've seen some missile strikes that almost certainly had to cause casualties. Those missiles were REALLY humming, not like most of the ones I've seen so far. Possibly hypersonic, because 3 of them got by the defenses in short order.

Starting to look like Iran is not letting up. Looking like they will launch less effective rockets in conjunction with Hezbollah in order to soften the Iron Dome before they throw larger ordinance into the fray. Not good. Iran should have just stopped with a few useless drones and it would have been a one and done situation. wtf...
Iran is claiming they aren't sending a second wave, so this may be it. I turned on Newsmax, and heard WW3 10x in 5 minutes, so tuning that out. Iran better know if we send 100 missiles, they'll likely be eating most of them. Hopefully they learn that they aren't in ours or Israel's league. Latest: explosions reported in Tel Aviv, Golan heights, Hebron and Beersheba. Some strikes may have landed.

Dude, enough with the Trump stuff/bashing. It's not the time for that right now. Stop thread jacking with this garbage right now.
On a different note, does anyone have a good livestream for factual info? I only have NewsMax on and I can't stand mainstream media of any kind because they keep interjecting political BS. I just want a good source that is fact based without any op eds.
I'm watching live. Many more intercepts over Jerusalem just now. Not sure if any got through, but it looks like the air defense is doing a great job. Hezbollah is claiming to be firing Katyusha rockets as well, but no reports on what they have done.

Well this was clearly a false report.
45 minutes ago? It would have been there already.
Yeah, 30 minutes should have been enough. Maybe they were shot down? If nothing happens in the near term, then this strike will have been very ineffective.

You mean like the 10 billion Biden gave Iran in November? Good policy
Not saying that was a good idea, but I'm sure you don't understand all the sanctions completely. Biden threatened even harsher sanctions right after if they continued to supply Russia with drones. Apparently, Iran isn't sending a second wave, and it looks like we're doing a great job of knocking these missiles down.

The pro-lifers don't even have any leg to stand on besides religion, which they won't even admit is the REAL reason they want bans. Simply ask them if they think it's murder. If they say yes, then that means that any restrictions AT ALL would be legalized murder. That has absolutely no grounds in law whatsoever. We barely even have any executions for multi-murderers, but we'd have a law that said the fetus can be 'murdered', because of other people's irresponsibility. Also, the idea of state's rights ISN'T to have different scattered very important social issues throughout the country adjudicated differently. States right's is meant to allow states to have freedom to have separate laws that are beneficial to/for THEIR particular state. Otherwise, why even have a UNITED states.
