Why would it be influenced? Ask the same questions in private or public, let the public hear both sides and decide for themselves. Did the Trumps ask for public hearings? I don't know if they did or not. They can still base their opinions on indictments based the facts of the case, not public opinion. Rather than read possibly doctored transcripts I would rather hear it right from the horses mouth.

 

All I'm saying is Hunter Biden doesn't get to dictate the terms of his testimony.  Trumps kids didn't and the testimony was private.  And if they're going to send a Trump advisor to jail, they should expect major blowback when the double standards for Biden are given.  Its typical grandstanding bullshit imo.

It's not just for me. The members are tired of a lot of threads turning into back and forth pissing contests.

I pointed that out months ago. If you are going to be honest, it’s pretty clear who is looking to start shit on a regular basis, which doesn’t show you much respect, and I pointed that out yesterday and again today.

CKF asked us both the other day to ignore each other. I am more than willing to do that and respect for the site owner, despite the fact that I bang heads with him over that idiot, who supposedly is his friend.  It lasted a day.

Meanwhile Trump has been convicted of rape and fraud and is currently out on bail, indicted of 91 counts and right now is sitting in a courtroom on trial.

 

No for the 15the time.  he was not convicted of rape, and the charges he is presently facing are a joke and a sham.  Wtf.   Sheep believe that he was convicted of rape.

You fucking moron he was not convicted of rape. 

She waited 24 years to sue him and she wouldn't have if she didn't have the financial backing of anti Trump libtards.   Trump doesn't become conservative the case is never brought to trial.   Its a complete sham. 

The guy is so desperate he's throwing away millions trying to get Haley to defeat Trump.

Which is what Trump just did in NH. There's no way he will reduce utilities by 50 percent within a year of taking office.  You just give that a pass because you like his polices better. 

Like it or not, both sides are scum. Some politicians are just bigger pieces of shit than others.

Have you listened to Trump‘s speech about his 10 point plan to restore faith and trust in government?  I don’t think he will get all of it done by any means but If it even gets partially done, it’s certainly more than what Biden is proposing. Biden seems to act like everything is just peachy with the public and the federal government.

No, the representatives wanted to release their sound bites.  Let the questions and answers be seen by the public, we are not all sheep that want to be told what was said, some of us want to see and hear it for ourselves.

 

 

 

 

 

 

A deposition is a legal proceeding, that should not be influenced by the media. Why is it that Trump’s kids were made to sit in private closed door depositions, but somehow Biden gets to have big press extravaganza with his?  The people who make these decisions, whether to recommend an indictment are based on evidence and those tasked with the authority, not public opinion, which obviously can be manipulated.  You might not be a sheep, but we have a nation full of them. No need to muck that up. They can release the transcripts of the deposition after. So I disagree.

What you describe has more to due with a person becoming less impulsive with age and more deliberate and composed in thought. That’s different than measured intelligence or the ability of a person to learn. There’s been a lot of studies that show that when teen boys engage in risk/reward behaviors they associate rewards with high risk. It’s not because they don’t understand the danger of jumping their sled over two automobiles. They understand the risks completely. It just completing such a task makes for a great story and a helluva thrill. They aren’t stupid or lack an ability to learn. 

No.

Yeah, except both sides were pushing that narrative until the next election when they could use it as a wedge issue against bush

Dems will be screaming about abortion every election as an emotional issue until the end of time 

Let them keep screaming about the 5% who think it matters more than all the other issues facing the country.  Dishonest shit stains.  Go to another state if you want one so bad.  Still legal here in 21 states and another 5 for rape or incest.

If you haven’t learned how to learn in K-12 the window has closed. College isn’t going to help that. College ought to be about developing greater discipline and skill building. Most of the innovations in science still come from the US. There’s a reason it’s not coming from China. Chinese live in a highly confined and compartmentalized educational system. Thinking outside the box and challenging norms isn’t encouraged. It’s actually punished. 

Learning how to think, or “critical thinking skills“ It’s an ongoing process, particularly as kids grow older, and the issues become more complex. Take media bias for example. I don’t expect a K through 12 student to understand how to sift through media bias this day and age. As I get into college and beyond, hopefully they figure it out.

I've always supported states rights myself.

Most likely the ones in this thread supporting Texans rights don't support Colorado's right to remove Trump from the ballot.

Does that include abortion?  Dems lost their minds when Roe vs Wade got overturned and claimed it was going to hurt R chances.  I saw an exit poll after the NH primary that it was only weighted at 5% as the most important issue to them.  On the other hand, when is the last time a state judiciary tried to remove a leading candidate from the ballot?   I don’t define states rights as five partisans, making a decision for their  entire state.

Way over played. While I’m all for sealing the border, the crime rate among illegals is very very low. But stories like this just rile up the Neanderthals  

If you believe those numbers.  I don’t.

Neither side will. Not sure there’s any solution here 

Golda Meir had a great quote something to the effect, that she understood that the Palestinians wanted to eliminate them, but that she hoped that the Palestinians understood that the Jewish people weren’t on board with that notion.

What was Navarro's crime again?

J6 committee was never legit.

Never mind the precedent being set by going after a member of a presidents cabinet and the right of executive privilege and confidential communications.  The Democrats really overplayed their hand with all the lawfare and phony prosecutions.

For free I'd take it to flip, but I'm not a midget so I sure wouldn't ride it.

So which ones of the many aren't?  Curious where you'd send your kids if they were going now or your grandkids if you were to setup a fund to pay for them now?

You know they make these things called risers and aftermarket seats if the sled doesn't "fit" you.  

It depends on the kid and field of study, my girls went to state universities, graduated with no debt and both have great jobs.  Getting an art history or gender studies degree and graduating with 150-200k worth of debt is insane, and we hear stories like that all the time.  And my 3 grandkids already all have nice little 529s set up.

It seems as though the shine is getting knocked off of college education. There’s a nice resurgence of trades. 

Works for me.  Many of these places have just turned into overpriced elitist indoctrination centers.  They used to be places where they taught you how to think, not what to think.

We used to wait for the local cops to post up in this certain bank parking lot after midnight downtown. They’d sit side by each. 2 cruisers facing opposite . We’d blast by them on our bikes at about 90 and accelerating. Then everyone split up and go home. We called it “ buzzing the tower “ 1980 Kawasaki Z1R 1000

I got clocked at 110 in my GTO.  I don't recommend getting caught doing that.
