They all know the fool is not a billionaire as he says.
And he lied in court saying he had $400m+ in hand.

Voters are seriously taking notes and looking deep into this criminal.
He is worse off than he was in circa 2016. The man is a walking national security risk.

I'm made to understand that some people have to be warned when it's satire.


Judge McAfee rules that only one potential liar can prosecute the case – but not both potential liars. Instead of curing the “appearance of impropriety”, it allows it to continue. If Nathan Wade goes, why can Fani Willis stay? McAfee doesn’t give an answer.”

I don't blame them entirely. this is the thing I have been telling Basilico why I want Trump to step aside. The media is out for his blood, at this stage he has to start making proactive decisions. Bruteforce thinks about the possible ways the media can lie about him and not give them the avenue to do so. they hate him, they lie, so he should not give them any chance to LIE against him.

he should start using scripts and have people go through what he has to say before he gives a speech.
his arrogance is too much.
he could just stay in a basement and not make the media focus on him to win this election but each time he is out there putting up controversies like this, one or two people who wanted to vote for him will change their mind. we know his die-hard fans will always vote for him but some people do not consume news like us and they don't dig deep to exposee media's lies.
The media has no shame. Whatever he does, they will always find an angle to frame it.
If he steps aside DOJ will go for the kill. It's a warning to anyone not part of the elite club to forget about the presidency. It's about trillions of dollars in climate change n forever wars at stake.

Trump has not been able to post a bond. I don't know how this going to end.
In the meantime, Elon Musk posted the video of trump in full context..61m views and counting.
Musk has a bigger audience than evil media combined.

I am on other forums too where degenerates don't exist, but I don't expect every forum owner to be able to run their own forum effectively and efficiently.

I have even gone further and informed this forum's owner of that fact hoping he'd learn. But if he doesn't, I can't exactly take over his forum and run it how I like now, can I?


Benalvino and I have not mended any fences!

We have engaged on here so many times and broken many fences that it would take quite a lot to mend a fence not to talk of mend many. Hence me waiting to see some mended fences before I believe fences are being mended.
I honestly find UK education ( IGCE) to be all rounded and dynamic. There is a lot of emphasis on honesty, good manners and generosity.
As such when it comes to matters elections, the society expects everyone to not steal.. Exit polls in western Europe are generally very accurate because nearly all respondents are truthful.I have over the years noticed ekections are almost called long before voting ends.
I don't know what happened to America. The entry of Trump made election dishonesty worse. Whats happening to him is plain ekection interference aimed at stopping him by all means
The left in Europe will erode the sanctity of elections within a few years.They are losing to right wing, they are allowing unbridled immigration, the EU is all Marxist like.In Europe, the term far right is perjorative, Anybody against the EU, NATO, immigration, abortion etc is far right. As if it's a bad thing to have an opinion. The Greens are just crazy, some glue themselves on tarmac protesing global warming.

Elon Musk sees through the liberal generosity.

Just seen this on abcnews

ATLANTA -- Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp signed a law Wednesday that lets a state commission begin operating with powers to discipline and remove prosecutors, potentially disrupting Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ prosecution of former President Donald Trump.

“This legislation will help us ensure rogue and incompetent prosecutors are held accountable if they refuse to uphold the law,” Kemp said before signing the bill, flanked by Republican legislative leaders. “


Judge McFee was appointed by Brian Kemp. BK is the one who certified Georgia 2020, He would obviously want every complaint about that election squashed.

There are three decisions that have a commonality. Long list of allegations read out , but hey no further action.

Comey v Hillary Clinton
Hur v Joe Biden
McAfee v Fani Willis

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.

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.

I haven't heard this to be true, so if you have any evidence not from your usual maga mules sources do provide it.

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.

In your mind you are the smartest person in the world. But you are just as delusional as your posts.
Keep writing nonsense and being the most technologically illiterate supposed technology person there is.

Judge McAfee, is tasked with “establishing, maintaining, and enforcing high standards of conduct, and shall personally observe such standards of conduct so that the independence, integrity, and impartiality of the judiciary may be preserved.”

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.

If you want to be on the page I am, give me your view of why his ruling was correct based on those precedents and the law. Judges get shit wrong that's why rulings are often appealed. You're at the basic level of reading/understanding the ruling. Clap for yourself.

Your oft to stupid to understand how little you know. Case in point.
The judge would DQ her if he saw any appearance of impropriety.

I listed what I think is improper that he should have demanded more evidence. Misuse of funds, declaration of gifts above $100, etc.

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
