He has shown enough times that he does not give a damn about anyone's emotions, and I do not see how it is my duty to make him give a damn. Besides, how well have you who give a damn managed to control him here from "abused and bullied a lot of people" while spending copious amounts of time engaging with them?

No one is obliged to be in this particular thread, so if the emotional damage done by a degenerate bothers you so much, have you considered engaging in threads the degenerate does not participate in, or just ignore degenerates? You might not be able to control degenerates but you ought to be able to control yourself. No?


Why, pray tell, even as a black individual, do you think I would insult myself by engaging with a person who calls anyone a "n" please?

Is the fact they call anyone that not sufficient to inform me that such people are not worth engaging with or me expending my time with?

I can always report such people to the mods if it bothered me that much and if the person they call "n" has not joined them in using similar words to describe those who call them "n". But as it is, no one is calling me "n", and I'm not here to fight for you or control any degenerates whom you'd find exist all over Nairaland and even in the real world.

The truth is he is a degenerate and he has abused and bullied a lot of people on this forum. I won't name names but I'm sure there are people who fear coming into this thread because of that abuse by him and slyfoxx. So your selfish desire, as you said, to have conversation and peace has trumped the emotional harm he's caused those people. I

We constantly tell the degenerate Basilico to go defend dump when he comes up with what he claims could have gotten dump off.

In that same light, perhaps you should have applied to be the judge in the Fanni case so I could have gotten a judgement from you that pleases me instead of the drivel I have been given by this maga judge.

If Fanni don't like the judgement, she should appeal. But I doubt she's that dumb.
On a serious note, Nathan Wade met with WH Counsel and also DoJ lawyers before the indictment.
Fani met with Kamala Harris ( This was explained but she had denied) and also with Mary McCord before the indictments. Mary McCord.. She been everywhere Trump is being pursued
That has not been addressed by McFee.

You are very funny. Wade never went below $250 like the other two.
I assume once the other guy started teaching the divorce lawyer about RICO, Fani had to up his wages.

Bradley left Wade lawfirm over a sexual harrassment case. Were it s criminal thing, Fani would be the one to investigate him.

So because you can't stop him, you enable him?

If it's found to be true without justifiable reason, I'd be here claiming she herself should be thrown off the case!
There are 3 Special prosecutors in the team. Wade initial contract was $250 an hour. The other guy RICO expert came in later at $200 , then raised to $250 after 3 months. The lady came in at $150 but later raised to $250.

Fani had also hired Bradley, Wade divorce lawyer on another matter within Fulton at some tidy rate.

You posts are basically gibberish or baby talk. You barely comprehend the issue and the law and so just fill this place with nonsense. Still here talking about the judge should have asked for evidence of misuse of funds and declaration of gifts without even understanding that all that had no relevance on what the judge had to decide and in fact was the inappropriate venue for that. But you are forced fed that by whatever right wing propaganda you are allowed to be fed into your brain.

Willis dating Wade could cause dump to claim an unfair trial. And he just might find a maga judge who agrees with him. And since I want the orange dump to rot in jail, I'd rather have a squeaky clean district attorney trying him, which dump can falsely claim Fanni isn't, than one dump can claim has a conflicting interest even if she hasn't got one.
I don't think there is any serious conflict.
She hired her boyfriend.She paid him a rate higher than what other counties within Georgia pay, higher at first than the experienced RICO attorneys in the team.Thats enough motivation for him to prove his mettle. They spend his windfall together, she refunds him in cash. She diverts cash from other projects to pay her boyfriend and the other attorneys she hired.
Yes. No conflict at all. No appearance of impropriety. Clean deal, above the board.

I hate to be in agreement with you. And to be honest, I've noticed some level of civility from you towards me (though you still lie to represent me as I'm not), that I'm willing to suspend calling you an si so long as it continues. I likely wouldn't though, since I doubt you can change.

Fanni Willis could very easily have been kicked off this case, and she has significantly weakened her position enough that it wouldn't surprise me if dump is let off.
Whether she got laid and he got paid, is not really a big issue.
It was imperative that the judge probe further on when the relationship started.
They texted 12000 times in a year before his appointment, about 36 times a day. What were they texting about .
The contents could have revealed the actual status of the affair.
The judge downplayed evidence of witnesses, including one whose condo was the tryst room where Wade had the garage door keys.

I'm more concerned about perjury, which the Judge ignored.
About whether she fired a staffer whose audio call I posted yesterday because she saw funds being diverted by her office.
Whether Fani and Wade deliberately widened the scope of the case to make it last longer earning Wade more income.
Whether she failed to report gifts of over $100 , as Georgia law demands.
Whether there is any money Wade banked to offset the business expenses of paying for their rendezvous after she refunded him in cash ( her campaign leftovers).
And a whole lot more.

She should be deemed a hostile prosecutor with a personal vendetta when the trial starts likely to sabotage defence.

Justice should be blind. We can't have differing rules for differing people based on how hard they cry/compain. If the standard is the "perception of impropriety", then pass a law that says that. But you can't have conservative justices like Thomas being held to a standard below "actual conflict", while Democratic ones are held to a standard of "perception of impropriety". That breaks the system and it is not blind justice. It affords one group "super rights". And I would understand if the goal of that group was to have an even playing field, but that's not that goal.

Look no further than this forum. Basilco, Benalvino and Slyfoxx report all my posts. I've been banned multiple times for using the word "idiot". Banned for saying "Benalvino thinks he is a white Republican living in FL.". And everytime I'm kinda shocked, given the things that are said here. lol.. (I think even you've used the word idiot. ) Now why was I banned? Because those people repeatedly spam the moderators to get me banned. Does changing my behavior change what they do? No. Because their intent isn't to follow the rules, but to get me banned, so noone will challenge them not following the rules. And how well is this Forum doing?

You have this view that if people just meet all Magas disingenuous complaints they'll stop complaining.. That, if Fani was perfect, Trump wouldn't have found an issue. We've seen Trump for 4 years, when has that happened? Fani, could have been Trump's mother and he would have found a way to say she was biased against him.

Judge Exonerates Fani Willis

On Friday, Fulton County Superior Judge Scott McAfee ruled that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis will be allowed to continue to persecute former President Trump and his co-defendants for trying to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia. The only condition Ms. Willis has to meet is to persuade her sex-partner Nate Wade to withdraw from the case.

Judge McAfee explained that "the testimony I've heard over the past two weeks confirms that both Ms. Willis and Mr. Wade lied under oath in their attempt to conceal both the illicit affair and the fiscal impropriety of the payments made to the unqualified Mr. Wade and the kickbacks Ms. Wade received from the out-sized remuneration she authorized him to receive from the county treasury. However, these lies do not rise to the level of felonious perjury because the only person authorized to file and prosecute perjury and malfeasance charges is County District Attorney Willis."

"It is not as if these circumstances are unprecedented," McAfee pointed out. "Former President Bill Clinton lied under oath in an attempt to conceal his sexual liaisons with White House intern Monica Lewinsky. The lies he told also could've resulted in a charge of felonious perjury, but his appointed Attorney General Janet Reno declined to press charges. As for malfeasance, misuse of public funds is so widespread these days that any serious effort to combat it would bring government operations to a standstill as wave-after-wave of public officials had to be put on trial. The $700,000 misappropriated in this case pales when compared to the billion dollars of public funds former Vice-President Biden used to extort the firing of a Ukraine prosecutor investigating the shady business dealings of a business that paid Hunter Biden to serve on its board of directors."

Subsequent to Judge McAfee's ruling, Nate Wade resigned from his position "so that District Attorney Willis could continue the fight to save our democracy from its enemies." Willis praised her paramour's "extraordinary bravery against the most serious threat to our country since the Civil War. His selflessness in foregoing the inadequate compensation he was receiving for his efforts is a model worthy of emulation."

In other overturning election news, a Rasmussen poll found that 57% of Democrats are opposed to Congress certifying the electoral vote if Trump wins the presidential election. Biden presidential campaign co-chair Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del) argued that "democracy is too precious to passively allow Trump to seize power just because he has the votes. Hitler had the votes when he was named Chancellor of Germany in 1933. The world cannot afford to make that same kind of mistake with Trump

At close he said he would reopen case for more evidentiary hearing . He also said he already had a draft. He has not reopened, meaning his mind was made up.
What more evidence came up after the hearings?
For the defence more phone records,expert witness on those records; two other witnesses willing to testify that the relationship started much earlier than in their testimony; one of those witnesses willing to testify that she heard Willis tell Bradley to keep his mouth shut; another witness saw Wade dining at a table with Bradley who had testified they had not spoken in years.

For Fani Willis. Some guy from Napa valley who said she once bought wine in cash from him.😄😄😄

You are too trusting of the FBI. They started the Russian hoax, a total fabrication by Hillary Clinton friends Fusion GPS via Cris Steele . They investigated and destroyed peripheral Trump supporters over trivial matters, none of them. Involving collusion - eg lying to FBI & Congress: process crimes. There was no basis at all for them to investigate. It was a dirty hit job. According to Peter Strzock There was no there there Their propaganda wing was MSM , the wapos, NYT, buzzfeed, MSNBC, CNN etc And don't forget 'pencil neck' Adam Schiff.

Regarding Smirnov. He was a trusted Confidential Human Source CHS for many years during the Obama administration. He was paid hundreds of thousands of dollars by FBI over the years. He filed a report in 2020 which FBI kept away from Congress till Grassley obtained a copy, then they was forced to acknowledge its contents after 3 full years. They trusted Smirnov enough not to charge him for lying then until it bacame imperative to blow up JBiden impeachment proceedings by indicting him.

CHS REPORTING DOCUMENT
(alternate transliteration Vadim Pojarskii) was assigned by Burisma to manage the acquisition, and he was
planning to travel to Washington, D.C. in March, 2017.J
2019 Telephone call. After the aforementioned 2016 telephone call, CHS had no Interactions with
Zlochevsky/Bursima whatsoever, until 2019. In 2019, CHS met with Ostapenko in London to discuss various
business matters (which had nothing to do with Zlochevsky, Burisma, or the gas/oil industry; CHS noted that
CHS's meeting with Ostapenko took place at a "Russian coffee house near l<nightsbridge Street located near
Harrods department store,• and that Ostapenko's fiance fives in London). At some point during this meeting,
Ostapenko advised CHS he was going to call Zlochevsky. At this time, CHS understood Zlochevsky was living
somewhere in Europe (NFI). During the call, Zlochevsky asked CHS and/or Ostapenko if they read the recent news
reports about the investigations into the Bidens and Bursima, and Zlochevsky jokingly asked CHS 1f CHS was an
"oracle" (due to CHS's prior advice that Zlochevsky should not pay the Bidens and instead to hire an attorney to
litigate the allegat ions concerning Shokin's investigation). CHS mentioned Zlochevsky might have diffiOJlty
explaining suspicious wire transfers that may evidence any (Illicit) payments to the Bidens. Zlochevsky responded
he did not send any funds directly to the "Big Guy" (which CHS understood was a reference to Joe Biden). CHS
asked Zloehevsky how many companies/bank accounts Zlochevsky controls; Zlochevsky responded it would take
them (Investigators) 10 years to find the records (i.e. illic.it payments to Joe Biden). CHS told Zlochevsky if he ever
needed help in the future and wanted to speak to somebody in the US government about that matter, that CHS
could Introduce him to someone.
Regarding the seemingly open and unsolicited admissions by PoJarsKII and Zlocnevsky about the purpose for their
retention of Hunter Biden, and the "forced0 payments Zlochevsky made to the Bidcns, CHS explained it is very
common for business men in post-Soviet countries to brag or show-off. Additionally, it is extremely common for
businesses in Russia and Ukraine to make "bribe" payments to various government officials. CHS noted that in
corporate budgets for other Russian and Ukrainian businesses which CHS has inspected in the past, CHS observed
budget-line-items in Russi.an called 0
Podmazat" (transliterated by CHS) , which literally translates to •oil, lubricate,
or make things run smoothly,• which companies routinely use to account for anticipated bribe payments. As such,
given the pervasive necessity to bribe government officials in Ukraine and Russia, CHS did not perceive Pojarskii's
or Zlochevsky's statements to be unusual, self-serving, or pretextual. Additionally, regarding Important business
meetings, it is also common in Ukraine and Russia for persons to make covert recordings. However, CHS has only
met Zlochevsky in person on one occasion and has spoken to him only twice on the telephone; as such, CHS is not
able to provide any further opinion as to the veracity of Zlochevsky's aforementioned statements.
II I
On June 29, 2020, CHS provided the following supplemental reporting:
Regarding CHS's aforementioned reporting that Zlochevsky said - "he has many text messages and 'recordings'
that show he was coerced to make such paymentsu - CHS darified 2Iochevsky said he had a total of "17
recordings" involving the Bidens; two of the recordings included Joe Biden, and the remaining 15 recordings only
Included Hunter Biden. CHS reiterated that, per Zlochevsky, these recordings evidence Zlochevsky was somehow
coerced into paying the Bidens to ensure Ukraine Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin was fired. Zlochevsky stated he
has two "documents (which CHS understood to be wire transfer statements, bank records, etc.), that evidence
some payment(s) to the Bidens were made, presumably in exchange for Shokin's firing.
Regarding aforementioned Oleksandr Ostapenko (alternate spelling, Alexander Ostapenko), who originally
introduced CHS into this matter, Ostapenko currently •works in some office for the administration of President
Zelensky (Nfl)", and also works for Valery Vavilov, who is the founder/CEO of cryptocurrency and blockchain
technology business BitFury.

Summary of CHS's meeting with executives of Burisma Holdings
FD-1023 Page 3 of 4 FEDERAL BUREAU Of INVESilGATION

I believe that the FBI has something on him and they are blackmailing him to disown the statement.

Does Burriama owner have 17 recordings of Hunter and Joe? The FBLie can't answer this because one day they will be released, it's easier to beg Smirnov to disown it now. Plausible deniabilty for their actions.

As for Hunter $5m bribe, I explained how $83, 333 every month paid to him adds up to $1,000,000 per year. Burisma paid him for 5 years. 2014-2019 , a total of $5m.
As for Joe Bidens $5m alleged payments, one day, One day, One day the details will be exposed.

Burisma owner is quoted saying the payments were convoluted, would take 10 years to uncover them.
Laughable now that Smirnov was paid by someone who has ties to Trump.Why would Trump pay for info that was kept secret by FBI ? Hell he didn't even know about the allegations, he would have made it public before elections. Makes absolutely no sense. The document had been blackholed by FBI, it was of no importance to anyone, until an FBI whistleblower spoke out last year.
The IRS investigators of Hunter Biden taxes through Special Counsel David Weiss ( appointed by Bill Barr ) did not even know about these allegations until 3 years later. They are assisting FBI to investigate HBiden taxes, the FBI hides this crucial allegations. Wow.
David Weiss. What does he do? He makes a plea deal with Hunter about his gun possession charge and absolves Hunter of any other imaginable crime including his taxes. Judge rejects the plea deal. David Weiss. David Weiss. He then indicts Smirnov for 'lying' to the FBi and blows JB impeachment apart.Cant make this stuff up.
Finally where is Smirnov right now? Incarcerated because he is a flight risk, those pesky Russians might aid his escape. 😝😝😝.

Laurene things adds up. 2000 people, 10000 people can swing an election. Roe v. Wade by galvanized many Democratic voters concerned about preserving abortion rights. This helped Democrats perform better than expected, we use to talk about the red wave remember? Exit polls showed abortion was a pivotal issue, with about 27% of voters saying it was their primary deciding factor. So the timing of the SCOTUS was not good as abortion motivated dems to come out and vote.
I think we have to take notice of media narrative. Is abortion a bigger issue than illegal immigration.
A country like Venezuela. They just don't want to spend money feeding inmates, easiest thing- Ship the criminals out to Joe Biden.
The media as we now know is the democrat mouth piece.. The issue of abortion is being overblown.
CNN viewers will rank abortion top on their list in their poll Every other media house will repeat those results.
I don't think a majority want unbridled illegal immigration.
Another top issue is inflation.Joe grew inflation from 1.4 to 9 percentage points. Results. Price increases with no corresponding wage increase. The voting comes to bread and butter issues. Between Trump and Joe, every voter knows how the economy performed under their reign.Every voter had money to spend during both regimes***Key***
How prices have risen.If you blame it on Ukraine war everyone knows Biden has made it worse.

More woes for Fani Willis.

Audio of whistleblower Convo with Fani Willis out..........
Whistleblower....alleged that the Willis administration misused federal funds, blowing a $488,000 U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) grant on "swag," Macbooks, and travel. (The federal funding was supposed to finance an advocacy center for at-risk youth in the county, but it never opened.)
Willis provided no justification when she fired the whistleblower, Amanda Timpson, on Jan. 14, 2022.

I have not seen any post about Robert Hurr testimony to Congress yesterday.
Must have been very disappointing.

Joe Biden willfully retained classified materials.. Top secret documents were found in 7 locations. He read out on 3 occasions top secret materials to his ghostwriter. The ghostwriter deleted the audio recording after he knew of Hurrs appointment, which have since been forensically recovered.But since he gave Hurr the transcripts, no obstruction of justice for him. 😝😝

Robert Hurr assesed that Joe Biden is vegetative, he can't prove intent to a jury.Is he an accessory to JB crimes since Joe was declared fit by Walter Reed doctors?

Yet Nazi's as old as 100 years have been jailed.
Billary Clinton. James Comie also could not prove intent of mishandling classified documents on her server for all those years she was secretary of state.

In Trump's case,it was such a big deal he waved Top Secret "Iran attack Documents" in the air while he was with some people at Mar a Lago.

Joe Biden stole Top Top Uber secret documents from a SCIF. Under no circumstances should anyone possess such documents outside of it.

The penalty for removing information from a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) is governed by 18 U.S. Code 6fxaui 1924, which addresses the unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents or material. Violation of this statute can lead to serious consequences including:
Up to 5 years in federal prisont
Fines up to $250,000
Both fines and imprisonment.
These penalties reflect the severity of the offense, which involves the mishandling of highly sensitive national security informati

One of my colleagues would argue that there were no weapons present on January 6th. It appears he was attempting to assert that this absence of weaponry disqualified the event from being an insurrection.
While I initially believed it to be inconsequential, if it holds significance for him, then it follows that this should debunk that rationale as well.
I do hope you are able i keep up with this persona .
The guy who fired the gun. He is a Republican
CCTV reviews I read indicate he went up a scaffold, drew out his gun and fired twice in the air.. Just like that and then disappeared.
Immediately the Capitol police started firing tear gas and stun grenades at the crowd. It seemed like his gunshot was a heads up. I'll dig up that source later.
He was identified by Sedition Hunters two years ago, He was arrested this month. After 3 years, this guy was finally arrested. Is it because the CCTV footage is now being released publicly, People will start asking why he has never been arrested.
Sedition Hunters are an online group who FBI gave access to Capitol footage to help them ID anybody at the Capitol on Jan6.
It took FBI 2 years to arrest him after he was outed by Sedition Hunters. Get that. 2 years.
Ray Epps , how long it took to charge him, and give him a sweetheart plea deal.? After a lot of noise from Congress.
