You don’t understand how democracy works.
You don’t understand how democracy works.
Shame he missed
Let me guess. To “save our democracy” right?
You’re “own” isn’t an own at all. Prayers are important. Especially for the now deceased shooter, his family and the victims (including Trump). Lots of callousness in this thread.
Sure but then the next President can repeal it. This happens now.
I want to get into Stellaris but everytime I start I realize I’ll have to play 1000 hours before I understand the basics and close the game.
It’s going to be crazy when Trump gets elected, is unable to pass laws due to a stalemate in congress and then is replaced by an idiot genx/millenial four years later.
Is the package manager as extensive as arch? Does it have an AUR equivalent? I’ve been wanting to try Nix or GUIX for a while.
Lol this is exactly where my mind went
confuse and demoralize
Oh man now I’m a Russian disinfo agent
Discourages participation in the democratic process
Uh. As opposed to what? Pretending that a privileged oligarchy doesn’t exist? The bedrock of the democratic process is free exchange of information, no matter how inconvenient, and the enforcement of laws. Without one we are in danger. Without either we aren’t a democracy.
Truth matters
The “truth” is that Joe Biden is a member of a protected class. Despite enormous circumstancial evidence (including bank records indicating payments in excess of $20 million to Bidens family and associates) his house hasn’t been raided, his devices haven’t been seized, he hasn’t been brought in for questioning or made in anyway to feel uncomfortable outside of the headaches related to his son.
That’s why there is ‘no evidence’.
Lol good one it’s like you missed the entire point of my post.
Well is there any evidence?!
The title of the article is literally about the oversight committee demanding communication records as recently as last fall.
Biden is a uniparty member and for all of this smoke he was never properly investigated by the justice department at home or abroad. Every inquiry is some anemic posturing.
Special counsel David Weiss let Hunter Biden’s most egregious financial crimes elapse past the statute of limitations – convenient. Hunter was making millions overseas in Ukraine and moving it through Romania and China. He wasn’t investigated for years until he ended up picking up a gun charge.
Why would an energy company in Ukraine pay Hunter Biden, a crack smoking drug addict, 50-80k a month if not for political access or a quid-pro-quo? Who is “the big guy” in Hunter Bidens email? Why were they trying to give him a plea deal that would absolve him of everything last July? If this were anyone that was not a member of the privileged class they wouldn’t be able to move due to all the investigation instead you are labeled as crazy for thinking this is old fashioned political corruption.
Wikipedia dismisses it as a Russian disinfo conspiracy theory. Where have we heard that before? 🤔
It goes back to my original point these people are above the law.
Judging by the article its purpose is to improve power availability during peak load times.
Someone needs to make a browser extension that hides any article with “experts say” in the title
You don’t think this series of events is indicative of corruption?
The CIA also censored references to Shokins book on twitter.
Unrelated but the same people censored the Hunter Biden laptop story and called it Russian disinfo during peak election season. It turned out to be true. 🤔
I don’t know why people care. Obama dronestriked an American citizen and nothing happened. Snowden revealed that we are all under mass surveillance and nothing happened. Biden withheld funds from Ukraine to halt an investigation into his son and nothing happened. This ruling just reflects reality.
My main point is that you are expecting the impossible if you think a company with more cash on hand than the federal government is ever going to do anything but manipulate you. If anything this drama is either for show or an effort by the government to make Apple do even more of their bidding. You will never get fair and balanced reporting or non-manipulative “entertainment” from these fortune 500s. It’s a lost cause. Find independent sources and look to them with skepticism because short of seeing it with your own eyes that’s as close to the truth as you will get.
Democracy works by letting the people choose their leaders through voting. Not by murdering candidates before the people can exercise their right to vote.
