I actually don’t need his association with others to classify him as one. Those are just extra.

He opened his mouth to talk about how he walks into half naked “women” (and by women there were teenagers amongst them) at his pageant to “inspect”.

That’s enough for me. But unfortunately there’s so much more. He’s a depraved sexual predator who surrounds himself with similar people.

Michelle said Harvey was a wonderful human being. Is Michelle running for office? What a silly inequivalence. And even if she were, did she sexually assault anyone? The comparison doesn’t exist because Trump sexually assaulted people.

Harvey is a sexual predator the same way Trump is sexual predator who has been found liable in a court of law for his actions. The fact that you’re not comparing Trump to Harvey but want to compare him to Michelle speaks of your insincerity.

Two people committed equivalent crimes and you’re comparing one of them to an acquaintance/friend of the other. Compare criminal to criminal let’s know you’re serious.
Trump by having been acquainted with some shady characters is guilty by association. He is a public figure with friends who are high worth individuals and sadly some are just sick perverts.
Malia is a child of two Obama's , don't excuse Mitchell for supporting a rapist pervert casting couch dirty old man for now being a politician. Perverts will seek to validate their social status by networking with wealthy members of yhe society.
On your accusation that Trump is a sexual pervert , you are flatly deluded.
He owned the beauty pageant franchise. He went to their dressing rooms, why did that come up during the election, is he the only one who has gone to inspect whether the models that he was paying are
36-24-36? And also their outfits. If he went there and made lewd comments I'd call him out.
Again people are different.Didnt someone sue for being stared at ?
It's mostly democrats who accuse conservatives over what they deemed improper behaviour. Snowflakes.

BREAKING: In rare statement, Chief Justice John Roberts rebukes Trump's escalating calls for impeaching judges whose rulings he disagrees with.

News.

I laugh in Nigerian Leaders voice. America do not yet knows what has happened to them. Very very very soon. They will know and they will learn the very hard way.. grin
John Roberts appointed Judge Boasberg to the FISA court on 2014.
When complaints arose about misuse of FISA warrants judge Boasberg was the one who oversaw the proceedings. He appointed Mary McCord who had presented false documents to spy on Trump to the FISA court as amicus curiae (friend of the court').
When the Roe vs Wade judgement leaked before the judgement was released, a senior staffer at Judge Robert office suddenly resigned.
He was Mary McCord s husband .

Coincidences I kid you.

The same way he didn’t know what Jeffrey Epstein was doing on his island even though he flew there many times.

Same way Diddy is his good friend and he somehow never had a clue the kind of person he was.

Be honest . Trump never went to the Paedophile island. And he didn't fly in the lolita express like Clintons.
You are making laughable claims of Trump being a paedo.

Obama.. Mitchelle Obama praised Harvey Weinstein calling him "a wonderful human being, a good friend and just a powerhouse" . Her first born daughter interned at his firm. Does that connect her to Harvey literally raping ( not accused of that, in reality it was rape)..

You forget paedophiles try to ensnare as many people as possible, especially those like Epstein who blackmail their clients.

You are stopping too low.
Epstein list hopefully will be released, today it's 80000 pages of JFK files being released.
Epstein tried to blackmail Bill Gates remember , his friendship played a part in his divorce. Noone has accused Gated of being a paedo despite him visiting Epstein home after he had been released .

Anytime democrats accuse you of something , chances are they are the ones doing exactly that

Fani Willis office was fined $54000 for refusing to hand over discovery documents to a defence witness ( the one who discovered about her affair).

If you’re not a perpetrator of child sexually abuse or willing to look the other way, you have no place in Trump’s team. Seems like it’s a requirement.
He was on Trump's spiritual team in 2016. You are implying Trump knew then about his encounters with an 11 old girl then , who came forward in 2024

Romania two right wing candidates stepped up after Georgescu was denied the chance to run. Georgescu had obtained 21% of first round vote then the EU bureaucrats intervened . The two are now polling higher than Georgescu was.

“Simion would secure 30.4% of the vote in the first round if he was the far-right candidate, while Gavrila would get 30.2% if she ran, according to the survey.”

EU does not use Dominion.

Hope one of them wins to the chagrin of the EU.

You're too stupid to even understand what you are advocating.
You are making the argument that trials and courts are unnecessary because the government gets to decide your guilt.
Just put your dunce cap on already and sit in the corner.

The point of the lawsuit and the Judge's temporary restraining order telling the plane to return was that there were people on the flight who sued and said they were not part of the gang.
Hence their gang affiliation had not been adjudicated.

But all this is too complex to understand for someone who can't even conjugate a verb.
God, I keep forgetting how fuxing stupid you are.
Did the criminal illegals come there via a court order. Never mind that coming in illegally is still a crime. Mayorkas allowed them in knowing there were criminals among them.
Now you need a judge to rule whether they can be deported.
France is today grappling with 60 Algerians their govt has refused to accept. One of them last month stabbed someone to death , despite numerous attempts to deport him.
You saw Venezuela refusing to accept their citizens until Trump had to arm twist them. Plus Colombia I think.

French politician calls for the Statue of liberty to be returned back to France

DOOCY: So is President Trump going to send the Statue of Liberty back to France?
LEAVITT: "Absolutely not. My advice to that unnamed low level French politician would be to remind them that it's only because of the United States Of America that the French are not speaking German right now."


UK and France Premier wants 30000 NATO troops on the ground, but with American Airpower providing support and intelligence .
Lavrov wonders why they want to protect the Nazi (Azov).

Some other French politician is calling for EU countries to boycott buying American fighter jets and buy the french Rafale jets instead. Spain is hesitant.

Still on Ukraine EU defence chief says they should get alternatives to Starlink because Musk might pull them off .

In Kursk region Ukrainian troops are encircled with no way out . Trump has requested Putin to spare their lives,Putin says OK if they surrender and hand over their weapons.
Trump is surely driving these Europeans crazy. Putin is already taking over Ukraine territory neighbouring the Kursk region. Reports say 69000 Ukraine troops have died in that idiotic offensive, there are reports that upto 30 NATO troops are part of the encircled, they were directing ground operations, and long range strikes using NATO intelligence.

Hey basilico loco, why is Doge not looking into the waste at SpaceX. There's been more shuttle disassembly events in the skies than landing a rocket on the moon. Nazi elon keeps giving promises but never keeps them, you can see tesla self driving cars are real shit, a promise he made for decades, and every year.

So you think SpaceX has no waste?
Are you off the meds. SpaceX is a private company , it has launched more satellites to orbit than any other entity on earth and it's falcon spacecraft has an exemplary record. Their new Starship designed for Mars conquest is still under development and testing . SpaceX is much cheaper than NASA which is why they are winning contracts and Elon Musk has top security clearance to see your SSN.

1. NASA Space Shuttle
Development Cost: Approximately $10.6 billion for the entire program.
Total Program Cost: Estimated at around $211 billion (adjusted for inflation to 2012).
Launch Cost: About $450 million per mission.

2. SpaceX Falcon Rockets
Launch Cost: Ranges from $10 million to $15 million per launch for the Falcon 9.
Cost per Pound: As low as $1,200 per pound for certain missions.


Don't forget SpaceX Falcon is already docked at the ISS and will be bringing back the astronauts left in space by Joe Biden . Just like he left Americans under the mercy of the Taliban. Heartless oaf.

Keep making excuses for gangbangers, that's what a low life would do.

The judge was late.
Nobody respects fake activists judges

The same Obama appointed Judge James Boasberg ordered a stop on deportation flights of Venezuelan gang members also gave Ray Epps Probation, oversaw Russiagate FISA warrants just happened to attend Trump’s D.C. trial and stand in the back of the courtroom.
Our nation has been hijacked by globalists with an NWO agenda who have owned these pawns on “The Grand Chessboard” for a LONG TIME.
He was confirmed by our Senate 96-0 in 2010. Now do you see what our President has been battling against and the dark forces intent on destroying our Republic.
As if Trump doesn't have a legal team and advisors who have taught and been taught law.
That jail those guys will be held in El Salvador , that thought enough for any gang member to self deport from. America.

Julie Kelly: James Boasberg, along with 16 DC judges, signed off on the unlawful use of 1512c2--the corporate fraud obstruction statute--against J6ers.

He presided over 70 J6 cases, both guilty pleas and conviction at trial. In nearly every instance, Boasberg imposed prison time even for the petty offense of "parading" in the Capitol.
He sent 60-year-old Sandra Weyer, a woman from Pennsylvania who committed no violence on Jan 6, to 14 months in federal prison on the unlawful 1512c2 count


Looks like these judges know if they are under investigation in RICO conspiracies they will scream about being targeted over the injunctions theh are issuing right left and centre.

This is lawless. And I don't think the media isn't doing a good job so far with it.
I hear people saying why are Democrats upset that Trump is deporting gang members.

The problem is, how do we know they are Gang Members? Because the Government says they are?
How do we know that they didn't accidentally or purposefully grab a US citizen and deport them as well?
Even if they aren't US citizens how do they know that these people deported were breaking laws and not random people with tattoos just pulled from the street?
And if they were bad gang members that the US has in custody, what is the rush to deport them instead of following the established laws?
That is what due process ensures? The right of people who may be innocent to have a chance to prove it.

This is some very very dangerous shit.
Seems like a good test case for other nefarious shit.
As Democrats argue the obvious legal violations here and due process, Trump and co. can argue that Democrats don't care about your safety, they want Gang members to stay in the US. They understand that that will incite their base and give them means to more easily throw out minorities without legal recourse.
Noone should be deported , the executive should get permission from District judges before doing anything.
Similarly a boy can think he is a girl, school districts should allow boys to use the girls washrooms at will.
A woman might desire an abortion every hospital nearby must provide the abortion services.
Hamas will hide weapons in a civilian house the occupants refuse to move out , IDF cannot bomb the house because there are civilians inside.
I also read that you can get jailed for indecently exposing your genitals to others in a public place like sauna or washrooms, but if you are trans you should be free to walk around with your third leg hanging out , it's not harassment to the girls who see it.

Anyway you can never understand this ,because you have no children,

Trump has said Joe Biden pardons are null and void. Let's hear how presidential pardons are binding. Trump will have 4 years of running roughshod and preemptively pardoning everyone including himself.
Democrats have scored an open goal. They will go to court and hope a judge agrees with them.
He also states that the pardoned will be subject to a high level investigation. Of note FBI deputy director Dan Bongino has been sworn in. He has been saying how the J6 sham committee was bogus for four years. They can still be investigated and if they lie to FBI they get jailed , the process can be the punishment,they will have to hire $1000 an hour lawyers .
Number 2 and 3 at DOJ currently were Trump's lawyers at the Jack Smith cases.

In other news SpaceX capsule docked at the ISS with 4 crew members to replace the 2 astronauts stranded for over 8 months and bring them back home.
The 4 crew members to do a stint 6 months long are 2 Americans, a Russian and a Japanese.

Elon Musk had offered to bring the 2 stranded astronauts 8 months ago but Joe Biden refused because it would have made Trump look good.

What petty politics by democrats How they howl and yelp when they successfully negotiate the release if an American from jail or captivity.
If Elon was a democrat Joe and Kamala would have authorized him to ISS before elections to bring them back , then go on 24 hour rant for a week about America exceptional tech superiority.

With regards to Houthi, Biden removed their designation as terrorist org and did little as they severely impeded international trade by attacks on civilian ships.
Why would Biden do this? He knew very well they are funded, trained and equiped by the Ayatollahs of Iran.

At this point, it’s the fed judiciary v. Trump..
This judge Boasberg was appointed to the federal bench by Obama, then went to serve as a judge in the FISA cases. He has a very long conflicted history protecting DC corruption.

A 2021 article from the same writer above explicitly details his corrupted role in FISA warrants, he makes absolute horrible decisions.

Every case related to Trump ,he has ruled against him.
Part of the resistance.
This is one judge who needs to be investigated thoroughly .In this preemptive emergency order ,he blocks Trump from evoking a war time Act of Congress to deport members of Venezuelan gangs who were already airborne (or almost) about to be deported ,ordering the planes to turn back
The same Act that sent Japanese and other nationals to internment camps during WW2.
His list of woeful decisions can fill up a university library.

Boasberg on Saturday ordered the Trump administration to immediately halt efforts to remove those Venezuelan migrants until he has more time to consider whether Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act was illegal............."Any plane containing these folks that is going to take off or is in the air needs to be returned to the United States however that is accomplished,” Boasberg announced. “Make sure it’s complied with immediately.”

We know DOJ is investigating how top egg suppliers have been making humongous profits.
We also know that gas prices ( which affect transportation) and inflation are coming down, this should see reduced egg prices.
We also have no evidence Canada and Mexico slaughtered their chicken en mass to affect prices ,it's possible Joe Biden wanted higher prices for God knows why.
With cutbacks in govt spending and layoffs, inflation will definitely come down,we know inflation is too much money in circulation chasing too few goods.

They know what the west like. Corporate want to maximize profit. I dont entirely blame them. Government cannot have it both ways. You want cheaper goods but make production expensive. You can reduce tax for companies so they can put that money in wages. They create more jobs, the product is a little expensive or remain the same and you control your own supply chain.

Bill Clinton kick start this nonsense we see today. Making China the behimute when it comes to production. They are in the WTO with all the IP theft their government support.
The alternative is to enforce quality products being imported and apply higher tarriffs to compete with local products.
But businesses also eye China 600 million middle class.
China as WTO developing nation has preferential lower tarriffs imposed on them by any WTO member , you rightly called out Bill on that. Yet they are the second largest economy almost out manufacturing the rest of the world combined.

South Africa ambassador to America has visa revoked and ordered back home.

South African Ambassador Embrahim Rasool told participants in a foreign policy seminar Friday that U.S. President Donald Trump is leading a white supremacist movement in America and around the world.

Rasool ..... in Johannesburg in attempting to explain Trump’s recent foreign policy stances against South Africa’s property expropriation legislation and its alliances with Iran and Hamas, among others.

He said that white supremacism was motivating Trump’s “disrespect” for the “current hegemonic order” of the world, including institutions like the United Nations and the G-20.

He also said that the Make America Great Again movement was a white supremacist response to growing demographic diversity in the United States, and suggested that South African farmers who had presented Afrikaner grievances within the U.S. were part of that global effort.
How do you make such statement in a seminar and expect to be the top liason officer between South Africa and State Dept or WH. SMH.

A little more expensive aluminum steel here n there for more job n supply chain security is a good thing.

Ontop of the slave labour, Chinese government gives incentives to many in the manufacturing industries.

I think the US should encourage more manufacturing jobs in the states. They should look into regulations and how they tax these companies making the outsource their product to china.
You do realize the allure of more profits drives chief executives
China labour is cheap. Their power is cheap. They have a fully developed supply chain systems. They have invested in manufacturing everything they can within their soil . They will build a high speed railway with everything Chinese made from bolts and nuts , save for very few components.They seek to import raw materials,have little regard for IP too.
Their govt also keeps a tight leash on the Yuan always making it favourable to exporters.
Contrast that with a Harvard MBA executive looking to slice costs to a minimum, offshores manufacturing to China. Chinese staff once they understand the production process setup shop across the street selling same product under different but similar name.

I remember seeing products like SQNY to confuse you with SONY,Panaosonic for Panasonic ,Samsang for Samsung ,etc. The Chinese govt doesn't care at all.

That's one reason I prefer America as the superpower. Western nations don't go that route selling deceiving buyers .
Western societies for instance respect the phrase "Let's get ready to rumble!" and will pay royalties whenever they use it. Not the Chinese though.
