  1. OK - you got two, then right onto Trump for the next 8 to 10 stories, right?
  2. Google working hard to suppress this story....and they aren't being biased - you would think if it wasn't true it would be an easy search.
  3. I will laugh my ass off when I see it being charged by one of their diesel portable generators.
  4. I kind of hope Trumps wins. Maybe it would send a message to the news networks to get out of being so politically biased and that they fact check before presenting stories. https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/trump-sues-cnn-for-defamation/?taid=633b686e54862400019f34d5&utm_campaign=trueAnthem Manual&utm_medium=trueAnthem&utm_source=twitter Former President Donald Trump is suing CNN for defamation and asking for compensatory damages in excess of $75,000 and punitive damages of $475 million, according to a lawsuit filed Monday. He is claiming that the cable news giant has harmed his reputation with "false, defamatory, and inflammatory mischaracterizations of him" and that CNN's conduct "is intended to interfere with [his] political career." In particular, Trump argues that he's entitled to hundreds of millions of dollars in punitive damages because of CNN's use of the term the "Big Lie" to describe Trump's "stated concerns about the integrity of the election process for the 2020 presidential election." Trump's lawyers say that the "Big Lie" "is a direct reference to a tactic employed by Adolf Hitler and appearing in Hitler's "Mein Kampf." "'If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it,'" Trump's lawyers stated, noting it was used by Hitler to generate hatred against Jews and to justify their genocide. The lawsuit says, "CNN's campaign of dissuasion in the form of libel and slander against the [Trump] has only escalated in recent months as CNN fears [he] will run for president in 2024." Trump also vowed in a statement Monday evening, "In the coming weeks and months we will also be filing lawsuits against a large number of other Fake News Media Companies for their lies, defamation, and wrongdoing, including as it pertains to 'The Big Lie,' that they used so often in reference to their disinformation attack on Presidential Election of 2020." The former president has been claiming since November 2020 that the election was rigged, despite dozens of lawsuits and recounts that found it was not. He is being investigated by Congress and the government for trying to overturn the election results, and two years later, he still claims that he won the 2020 election. CNN had no comment. The case has been assigned to Trump-appointed Judge Raaj Singhal, in the Southern District of Florida.
  5. I am fully aware of the policies regarding immigration - MC - you are being fed info that isn't completely accurate based on your many statements. The posts above are representative of immigration policy.
  6. It wasn't nearly the problem in 2018 as it now after your dumbass prez reversed Trumps immigration policies. It was already being handled, why introduce more legislation - maybe you can understand that......but history tells us you won't.
  7. That guy looks like he has a lot of Bat-shit crazy behind those eyes......
  8. Trump did it and was bashed for doing it.
  9. SeaShark replied to SSFB's topic in Current Events
  10. So let people cross illegally at all time highs, then claim all time high apprehensions. Can't make this shit up!
  11. Nope - I am not! He is a lying piece of shit trying to cover his ass.
  12. Zuckerberg stumbled and was very careful to not mention Hunter.....He is covering his ass on that interview big time. Don't fool yourself.
  13. Go ahead and believe those polls and think you are with the majority, the working people in America are absolutely concerned about the rising cost of everything and how it is impacting them, the increasing interest rates, the fact that shelves in stores are bare of many items. Nobody that I know (Democrats or Republicans) talk about Jan 6th and the "threat to democracy" as an issue.
  14. Makes a person wonder how many House and Senate members are shareholders of Intel...
  15. I second the motion!
  16. Nope - investments down and cost are up.
  17. While that is good news, it still isn't Zero as some would like people to believe.
  18. To think that saying inflation is zero that people will believe it? https://nypost.com/2022/08/10/biden-wh-claims-us-has-zero-inflation-despite-high-rate/ President Biden tried to claim Wednesday that the US had “zero inflation” in July hours after federal Consumer Price Index data showed annual inflation dipping only slightly to 8.5%, which outraged Republicans and other critics who pointed out it’s still near a four-decade high Yeah - it might be better than last month, but it still is high.
  19. Yet the economy is going in the wrong direction - I don't know if I believe the jobs numbers or much that is spewed out. I do believe what I see in stores, at pumps and talking to friends and neighbors and that is not good. https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/05/economy/june-consumer-credit-report-debt-increase/index.html. (CNN)Americans piled on $40.1 billion worth of debt in June, the Federal Reserve said Friday afternoon. The figure was considerably higher than economists' forecasts, after May's revised total of $23.8 billion. https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/04/economy/recession-inflation-fed-dudley/index.html New York (CNN Business)The Federal Reserve's war on inflation will eventually kill the economic recovery from Covid-19, former Fed official Bill Dudley warns. The problem is that the Fed began its quest to tame inflation late, leaving the central bank little choice other than to slam the brakes on the economy by drastically raising interest rates. "Almost certainly there will be a full-blown recession. If we're not in one yet, I think we will be in the next 12 months," Dudley, the former president of the New York Federal Reserve, told CNN in a phone interview.
  20. Maybe, just maybe if they wrote bills specific to what they are trying to accomplish - they would be passed. But no - they have to have loop holes that allows for spending on other agendas into them - that is why this was not fully supported. I am glad that someone watches that - and it should happen on every bill that is brought to the floor by either party.
  21. I don't think anybody will say its bad, but I am unwilling to give credit to the group that wants credit when they the caused it to double in the first place. They help create the problem, I expect that they will fix it and not need a pat on the back.
