I hope the Supreme court does the right thing when it gets to them

At your last paragraph. I hope they also remember what he promised to do and make himself more powerful than the supreme court if he mistakenly wins another term. He said it himself recently

That will be the end of Democracy in America and the World at Large

I hope they don't make that happen
Trump got 1.36m votes against Biden 1.8m in Colorado in 2020.
Who are these four democrat judges to deny 1.36m plus voters the right to choose their candidate? They accuse him of being guilty of a charge not a single person has been indicted of.
That haughtiness can easily lead to violence
There was no insurrection, It was a fedsurrection.Simple.

And just to show how partisan these judges are , the ruling is paused until Jan 4 if Trump does not appeal. If he appeals , their junk ruling has to wait for SCOTUS determination which can take years .
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico:
Obrigardo, me tire no to set you on the correct path. Here is 14th Amendment Section 3 . Note the bolded.

Section 3 of the Civil War-era 14th Amendment says: “No person shall ... hold any office, civil or military, under the United States ... who, having previously taken an oath ... as an officer of the United States ... to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof


Joe Biden has allowed invasion of the states by enemies through illegal immigrations.
As such Texas Lt. General says Texas can remove Joe Biden from the ballot by virtue of giving 'aid or comfort to the enemies thereof'. DeSantis also mentioned a possibility of Florida removing Joe from the ballot.
Plus every other state can likewise do so if a single illegal immigrant is from an enemy country.
See how that stupid ruling comes to bite back Joe Biden

In other words that decision is the type a kindergarten teacher would rule.
To add further Trump nor any of his supporter has been indicted on an insurrection charge. They relied on a lower judge and the Jan 6 highly partisan committee that destroyed the evidence it collected.
Total bullshit ruling by Colorado.They even quote Trump said "fight like hell" in his speech, but omit that in the same speech he told the supporters to march peacefully.This omission can only be interpreted as meant to give democrat wankers an erection😁😁

NO! Never! Nilch!

I would never regret it because it's the perfect translation of section 3 of the 14th amendment. If not criminal trump, who then did the founders write that salient part of the constitution for? You dumbass.

Trust me I'm so happy and I know Scotus will side with Colorado.
I told you it was coming but keep playing dumb.
Don't call me dumb yet. Just state that section in full And you will realize that it affects Joe Biden very badly.
Also remember that SCOTUS referred abortion laws back to the states , you think they will do that on this preindependence clause?

Rudy Giuliani $148m lawsuit.

. The "judge" had already ruled Rudi "GUILTY" before the trial began.
2. The "judge" ruled Rudi submitted no evidence, knowing that the DoJ had CONFISCATED all of his evidence and would not release it for his defense.
3. Several of the jurors were big Democrat supporters and had posted negative comments about Rudi on their social pages.
4. The "judge" would not allow Rudi to mount any kind of defense.
5. The two election thieves and the judge were laughing and licking their chops thinking about the Kangaroo court lottery they were about to win during the final reading of the "verdict" and the outrageous monetary award, and the only photo of Rudi shown to the jury made him look like a madman.

No. 203 sweeps Williams
At the height of the Williams boom in 1998, an unofficial game took place in Australia after Serena and Venus claimed that no male player outside the top 200 could beat them.

Up stepped a German known as Karsten Braasch who was ranked 203rd in the world and after first beating Serena 6-1, he then disposed of Venus 6-2.

"I didn't know it would be that difficult. I played shots that would have been winners on the women's circuit and he got to them very easily," said Serena.

"They wouldn't have had a chance against anyone inside the top 500 because today I played like someone ranked 600th to keep it fun," was Braasch's assessment.

The Imam Ali mosque bombing was the detonation of two car bombs outside the Shia Imam Ali Mosque in Najaf on 29 August 2003. The attack killed 95 people crowded around the mosque for Friday prayers, including Ayatollah Mohammed Baqir al-Hakim, spiritual leader of the Supreme Council of the Islamic Revolution in Iraq.[1]

This bombing by Zarqawi father of ISIS setoff sectarian strife between the Shia and Sunni.

Old cars are not illegal in Texas. However, depending on their age and location, they may be subject to additional regulations.
In certain counties that are designated by the Texas Department of Public Safety, vehicles have to undergo mandatory annual emissions testing in addition to the regular safety inspections.
Vehicles that are 25 years or older do not need to go through emissions testing, but they still require annual safety inspections.
Vehicles registered as antiques or classics do not require either emissions testing or safety inspections. However, these vehicles have restrictions on how much they can be driven per year.
So in summary - older cars can still be driven in Texas as long as they pass inspections and comply with usage limits for antique/classic registered vehicles. Texas does not completely ban older vehicles but does impose regulatory requirements on them.
There are countries in Eastern and Central Africa that didn't have limits on vehicle year of manufacture. As such you would easily find gas guzzling 25 year olds belching on the roads They realized they could reduce the fuel import bills mainly because of dollar demand by restricting car age to 5-7 years These are more fuel efficient. The main purpose was really not pollution or climate change but to stabilize dollar reserves. A country spending a billion dollars a month on importing fuel leaves other import sectors starved of foreign currency, leading to local currencies losing against the dollar.

Nigeria is importing old cars that are banned for polluting without realising we are depopulating ourselves with the banned fumes as if our own lifes and existence are worth less in the world.
I'll make it clear. Environmental pollution and climate change are not exactly the same. Climate change is a scam because the gas being targeted is CO2. An increase in CO2 results in an increase in vegetation, the world is more greener when there is more CO2. Greenhouses esp large ones pump CO2 to increase crop production.
Environmental poliution by reducing smog and gases like Carbon Monoxide is fine with me.
Climate change was previously global warming, was previously global cooling and God knows what else
Computer models are the ones that predict changes, their predictions have all been wrong over the years.
Climate change consensus is quoted, yet those who ask for the data are never provided.
I also joked some years ago here that those big fuel American guzzlers will cost pennies by 2030 in Nigeria after they "all" switch to EV.
Some people screaming hoarse think power comes from the socket outlets.
Finally this week..
Reality in the form of 4000 dealers writing President Biden to tell him they can’t sell or give away the EVs infesting their lots, so perhaps it would be a good idea to please reign in those mandates.
EVs are not selling enough ( $50k and over ) though JB has $7.6B to setup chargers every 50 or so km along interstate highways

There are ways to ensure cleaner internal combustion engine for health purposes, an outright ban on fossils is madness.
There is no science that proves CO2 causes global warming.If they can't predict snow amount How can they predict that 1.5°C is the tipping point
P/S. I also think oil is formed mostly from natural processes and not from dead organisms. All that oil found all over several kilometers underground , how did that stuff get buried? Was there such abundant life before humans could write.

I do not think you have a clue what wisdom is bas, you barely understand data and information.

Humans cause global warming, is an established fact. The more of you humans there are the more you pollute, and you shouldn't need a study to understand this. Just step out your house and see how dirty your neighbourhood is, though in your case I'd bet you only need to look around except you've shown reason for me to believe you can not see.

Yes, "Depopulate the world", is the solution, though to ignorant maga you, that means "Starting off with the undesirables", as if you've never heard some yelling they shall not be replaced and China one child and Black Lives Matter etc. etc.

"The world’s population is more than three times larger than it was in the mid-twentieth century. The global human population reached 8.0 billion in mid-November 2022 from an estimated 2.5 billion people in 1950, adding 1 billion people since 2010 and 2 billion since 1998. The world’s population is expected to increase by nearly 2 billion persons in the next 30 years, from the current 8 billion to 9.7 billion in 2050 and could peak at nearly 10.4 billion in the mid-2080s.
https://www.un.org/en/global-issues/population

All those people will join already dirty polluting you and pollute the earth with your dirty breath. Except we've found a solution a very long time ago to slow that growth and it's called education.

When men married more than one wife, they had hundreds of children, but the fear of the gods entered you so you now educate your daughters to be worthy of a man to themselves and you teach them to sexually protect themselves so they don't get diseased and can bear a manageable number of children that she and her husband can bring up to do well in life which reduces the growth in population. Even you having fewer children than your grandfather had has reduced the breath polluting human beings on this earth. And there's the maga who is stupid and doesn't yet know that stupidity kills so doesn't take responsibility for its own ignorant stupid maga view and it's own maga death and eventual maga extinction which will significantly reduce the human polluting breath, so why should any one need to depopulate the earth by getting rid of the undesirables that are getting rid of themselves, pray tell me bas?

My own projection for 2100 is 12-15 billion so you know. Impoverished nations will become more educated and therefore cleaner and wealthier and can afford more children of whom fewer will die of pollution and on whom they will spend that increase in wealth to reduce polluting the world their great grand children will live in and prosper. But that depends on your qanon kraken maga view not prevailing, I know, or we might just find the world depopulated to 5 billion breathing human polluters by 2050.

You have people you are responsible for bas, and should watch what you eat so you know what you feed them.

Come-on be calm. Three Jan 6 accused will have one of the charges you listed above reviewed soon by the Supreme Court.
In particular, the Conspiracy to Obstruct official proceedings. Trump is also indicted on that
Of particular, this 2004(?) Act was passed after the Enron scandal to punish those who destroy evidence. DoJ twisted that Act to indict Jan 6ers and Trump.
The Supreme Court will make a ruling on whether application of that Act is lawful in their case.
Meaning. Trump case gets delayed. Jackboot is claiming urgency to start the trial on March 4 probably to convict Trump before the election.
While some J6ers have been in the DC gulag for three years with no trial date set. Urgency my ass Jackboot.

Jan6. Republican Higgins a vet and congressman has issued a stark warning to the FBI investigators
https://rumble.com/v41b22w-lara-logans-rest-of-the-story-clay-higgins.html

Republican Congressman Clay Higgins issued a warning to FBI officials investigating the Capitol Riots, saying that they are “going down.”

Higgins, a Louisiana Republican, has been a vocal proponent of the theory that federal agencies planted people at the scene and provoked the riot as an excuse to arrest conservatives.


Speaking to Lara Logan, a former CBS News correspondent turned right-wing commentator, Higgins, a former law enforcement officer himself, advanced his theories, claiming the FBI is tracking Trump supporters who were in Washington over the days leading up
up to the Capitol Riots and treated as suspected terrorists. He said those on a supposed list are still tracked by air marshals to this day despite not being convicted of crimes.

“We are in uncharted waters as it relates to the weaponization of our government against American people,” he said, adding: “I am not frightened of these people.
“They are not going to take us without a fight. I am going to fight legally and peacefully and within the parameters of the U.S. Constitution.

“But they’re going down. These men in their high perch and their position of power and authority that are walking upon our entire history, our deepest core principles. They’re not going to get away with it
