Well.. on that list, raum and basilico sure do.
It's odd that you think 'she' sounds like a nut. 'She' sounds like you and most Trump supporters in this thread do. Nutty
Just read the last few pages and look at the links you guys post.

For some reason this thread attracts a lot of mentally ill people, who seem to want to dedicate their lives in support of white men, who hate black people, in a country a continent away they've never been to and rehash conspiracy theory after conspiracy theory.

What is the difference between 'her' post and post Basilico writes?
25th Amendment. Were you taught this? I can make lots of sense after reading diverging views Unlike you who only takes msndnc and NYT as the gospel truth.

AntiTerrorist:
Muslims should remove the Quranic verses about killing Jews and other non-Muslim people. These verses are the main reasons for Islamic terrorism, women’s oppression and anti-Semitism. The civilized people should raise their voices against these hateful anti-Semitic Quranic verses. For example, Surah Nisa (4:89): “They wish that you should become disbelievers as they disbelieved so that you and them become equal. Therefore, do not take any of them as a friend until they migrate in the way of Allah. Then if they turn away, seize them and kill them wherever you find them.”

Cc yarimo helinues
The Quran is the unedited spoken words of Allah to his Prophet. He was the last prophet the creator sent to mankind. You can't remove a comma from it. It's cast in stone, you follow as is. No questions as to it's veracity.
The Quran was revealed to correct the Gospels and Torah. Hundreds if not thousands of years after the two were written.

Since I know nothing about America, are there blue states and red states?
Or it's just majority red with democrats holding a disproportionately large majority in key urban centres? For instance Phoenix has a large democrat population in Arizona but I'm not saying anything.
Austin has a large democrat pop in Texas.
Something someone saw and decided to make America a representative republic as opposed to an outright democracy?
Something that has worked for 200 plus years , with both parties having a chance to win the Presidency.

Obrigardo. You are fond of claiming that Trump plus Epstein had raped a 13 year Katie Johnson. Story was debunked

https://headlineusa.com/disinformation-about-trump-epstein-relationship-resurfaces-w-new-document-dump/
Indeed, Melissa Cronin, one of the authors of Dead Men Tell No Tale, investigated the Katie Johnson story and said she couldn’t find any traces of the mystery plaintiff.

“Cronin turned onto a dusty side street. She had beaten every other reporter there. But she didn’t find Johnson. Instead, the lawsuit’s address was a boarded up, abandoned home. Neighbors called it a ‘crack house,’ and said it had most recently been occupied by squatters,” Cronin reported in her book.

Cronin further stated that she canvassed the nearby town, and no one had heard of Katie Johnson. The phone number linked to Katie Johnson in court documents was unconnected, too, she reportd.

“It was clear the lawsuit was some kind of red herring. Speculation ran wild: Had the Clintons planted this to smear Trump and torpedo his campaign? Had Trump planted this in a canny bit of reverse psychology?” Cronin wroteThe truth was even stranger. The man behind the Katie Johnson lawsuit was a former Jerry Springer producer who called himself ‘Al Taylor,’ a.k.a. notorious gossip peddler Norm Lublow,” she added.

Lublow’s wingman was a conservative anti-abortion donor, Steve Baer, who also happened to be a ‘Never Trumper.’ Taylor claimed to have met Johnson and heard her story at a party several years before..
Meanwhile 200 pages of Epstein grand jury in the 2007? case was released this week. You can find it here.Its gross, can't excerpt it.
Epstein was a deranged paedophile getting a kick at 14 year olds dressed in their school uniforms.

https://floridajolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/epstein-grand-jury-clerks-fj.pdf

This is Trump saying Bill might have problems because of his association with Epstein.Perfect motive for her campaign to deflect and accuse the accuser of the crimes the accused's spouse may have been entangled in

I just read that one "first time offender", a certain Matthew Perna who was at the Capitol on J6 - for 4 minutes, and whose lawyer told him he will at most serve 6 to 12 months in jail committed suicide after the Joe Biden Justice Department used USC 1512c2 (a Enron era law) to charge the poor guy. He was told he will serve 20 years instead. He could not live with that. He took his own life.

This unjust application of the law on innocent citizens - more than 110 of them, have now been overturned by the Supreme Court of the US.

Merick Garland, Lisa Monaco and Joe (FJB) Biden have blood on their hands.
Corrupt disruption of a proceeding Overturned by SCOTUS. Are SCOTUS the only people who understand the law?

Jeff Clark , former deputy AG take on SCOTUS ruling.
In filing Judge Merchan allowed evidence of Trump's presidency to be presented,



Everyone, this is perhaps in elliptical lawyer-speak for some of you.

So let me translate — Bragg agrees that Trump has filed a motion to dismiss the New York charges in light of yesterday’s immunity ruling. The Manhattan DA needs until July 24 to respond.

Also, Bragg admits that the legal effect of Trump’s ruling + their requested extension meaning that Trump should not be sentenced in New York until the motion is resolved.

This means that if Bragg gets his extension (which he will), the earliest Judge Merchan could deny a motion to dismiss the case and reset sentencing would be July 25. And that would be only after studying the matter for a single day, which should be insufficient. And doesn’t even consider oral argument on the motion if that gets held.

The Republican Convention is from July 15-18, so Trump will not be sentenced before the Convention!

On balance of all factors, the earliest Trump gets sentenced is realistically now some day in August.

And in reality the whole case should get tossed before then.

How many times did Dems call for 25th Amendment on Trump.
With JB they shielded him, now they are mad his state of mind was unequivocally exposed to the whole world. The democrat PR department formerly known as the main stream media are raving mad they can't hide it anymore.
They can't easily replace him with a white person. Furthermore JB warchest has $250m, should he drop running only Kamala Harris has the rights to that money
But Dems are known to change rules.

Behind closed doors, Biden has such a quick-trigger temper that some aides try to avoid meeting alone with him. Some take a colleague, almost as a shield against a solo blast.

The president's admonitions include: "God dammit, how the f**k don't you know this?!," "Don't f**king bullsh*t me!" and "Get the f**k out of here!" — according to current and former Biden aides who have witnessed and been on the receiving end of such outbursts...

He'll grill aides on topics until it's clear they don’t know the answer to a question — a routine that some see as meticulous and others call "stump the chump" or "stump the dummy."

With SCOTUS rulings in last 2 weeks, how did judges allow the cases to go on trial. Are they just half baked law school graduates or partisan. Are they in a coordinated get trump partisan campaign.
Do cases have to go to the highest court to determine constitutionality of charges.
These judges should be investigated.
Wait , they have immunity of their official actions.

Take a look. Jack Smith most famous successful conviction of a Republican governor. Overturned 9-0 by the Supreme Court. Andrew Weissman successful convictions in Enron cases. Unanimously overturned by SCOTUS. Good Lord .

Addendum..Judge Chutkan quickly processed Jackboot case despite glaring questions of the appropriateness of the case. She gave a private citizen the pass to prosecute a former president without questioning his eligibility.

Kamala Harris’s team is concerned that Democrats will install a white candidate ahead of her to replace Joe Biden, arguing that it would be “offensive” to black voters to overlook her should the president stand aside.
Donna Brazille former DNC chair who gave Hillary questions ahead of a presidential debate in 2016 also thinks the optics of replacing a blek with a white are not good.

The dumpers are gaslighting as usual, and severe TDS is making some fall for their gas.

The Supreme Court has simply ruled that the District Court separate the president's official acts, duties which are defined by the Constitution and are immune, from the unofficial unconstitutional acts which are not.

But some are reading this as if dump can presidentially go shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and get away with it. Lol. Yet, they likely wouldn't claim it gives Biden that same right.
You think the three dissenters would give the same ruling if Clinton, Biden or Obama was slapped with a gazillion counts

They claim he can do this and that. Show them the system does not allow that, they will say you don't understand and make up another scenario.

It only negates their claim of Trump being a dictator. While will he be asking someone to find votes which is not illegal instead of him to just use the military and stay in power.

Nail in the coffin. How do those lower court judges not see this? Robert Hurr passed senate confirmation. Jack Smith is a private citizen David Weiss passed senate confirmation.
Both nominations from a president.
Jackboot gone.

“I write separately to highlight another way in which this prosecution may violate our constitutional structure. In this case, the Attorney General purported to appoint a private citizen as Special Counsel to prosecute a former President on behalf of the United States. But, I am not sure that any office for the Special Counsel has been “established by Law,” as the Constitution requires. Art. II, §2, cl. 2. By requiring that Congress create federal offices “by Law,” the Constitution imposes an important check against the President — he cannot create offices at his pleasure. If there is no law establishing the office that the Special Counsel occupies, then he cannot proceed with this prosecution. A private citizen cannot criminally prosecute anyone, let alone a former President,” Clarence Thomas said.

How did the case get there to SCOTUS
Judge Chutkan was appointed by Obama.
3 DC Appeallate judges ruled that Trump has no immunity. One appointed by GW Bush, the other two by Biden
SCOTUS 3 dissenters are all liberals appointed by democrat presidents
Nothing to see here folks

Who comes off worse. Chutkan should have thrown out the case against Trump or at least determine what was personal or official.

In the other ruling by SCOTUS on Friday the charge of obstruction against official proceedings was remanded to lower courts to properly define the congressional law that was enacted after the Enron case where auditors destroyed evidence. Judge Chutkan should have known that, but she proceeded with the trial preparation.

The Union of the Left with 28 percent and Macron's party with only 20 percent

“Very striking that there are far more Palestine, Pride and Algeria flags than the French flag. A bit of a clue as to why Le Pen did well.” Vijeta Uniyal wrote about Marine Le Pen’s National Rally Party winning the first round of the French elections. How did the left respond? By doing what they do best! Protesting, rioting, and destroying property! Except…the majority of the mobs had Palestine, Algeria, and pride flags. I didn’t see any French flags. I heard screams for an intifada in France, though.
