wirinet: So you need an impeachment inquiry in order to ask FBI and DOJ to investigate an alleged Bribery crime? Why is it so difficult to invite the officers directly involved in the investigations for questioning? Why is the investigations only about whistleblowers? To prosecute a case you need actual evidence. 100 whistleblowers without concrete evidence cannot lead to indictment not to talk of conviction. Till today, the Republican led investigations have not revealed who did the bribings, documents and money trail that connect to Joe Biden or even video or audio recordings of Joe taking bribes. What evidence to you guys think is admissible in court to support your Bribery allegations?
wirinet: In effect the whole legislative investigations is just to revenge Trump's impeachments. At least Trump's impeachments were actual allegations against Trump himself for actions he took as president, and not allegations against his sons, his dead father or grandfather, or even his dead alcoholic brother.
There were the phone records with Zelensky, there was col. Vinman who reported the blackmail of Zelensky. There were administration officials including the European ambassador who found the call inappropriate. Even Zelensky and Ukrainian officials found Trump's request inappropriate. For Joe Biden's, the Republicans have no allegations not to talk of proof. The is no direct allegations or even complaint against Joe Biden. The allegations are against Hunter Biden, Biden family and Biden's Business associates. They say they want to hold impeachment inquiry to search for proof.
See David Packman's take on it to see how ridiculous they sound. Marjorie Taylor Greene wants Joe Biden impeached and Donald Trump's impeachments expunged.
MentalCase98: That guy’s lips are surgically attached to the ass of these white men. He will later come here acting like one champion of the black race lmao.
Lol... Trump university is bad but he spend time with google searching for lies to make hunter and biden look like saint obi
IjeBos: Here you are commencing your backpedaling/goal post shifting as usual. She did not strike down the deal as you posted. What I quoted is her exact quote. If you can't understand it, that's on YOU. If you want to actually know what she did find a reliable source like I did and read about it.
It's only in your head she did not strike down the deal. When I call you a coon you go vex. Meanwhile. I have been here in the US for months... No sign of kkk. You worry too much
IjeBos: The judge did not strike down the deal. She explicitly said, "I'm not going to say I'm going to accept the agreement, I'm not going to say I'll deny it,". One of the reasons she held it up was a technical constitutional matter. If you want to parrot stupid talking points at least make then factual.
You should also probably go do some research on what types of jail sentences people receive who end up paying their back taxes. Most if not all credible attorneys believe this was overcharged. That is if you actually care about learning anything. But I doubt you do. So, continue on being a useful idiot or just an idiot.
Your quote makes no sense. So did she grant him the plea deal?
IjeBos: I'll help you out. Start by googling obsession. Figure out what it means first. And then ask yourself if you used the work properly. Hint: You haven't. Then reread the shit you just posted. Ask yourself, who was going to prosecute Obama for war crimes in the US? Name me the law and or statute he would be prosecuted under.
I'm sure your take of US politics sounds smart to the ignorant and stupid people who you surround yourself with. I'm neither. I have a low threshold for stupid people, moreso for stupid people who post misinformation and moreso for stupid degenerates. You're the trifecta. Why don't you get back to sexually harassing woman on here or opening up new usernames.. It only takes you 2 minutes huh? (What grown man gloats about that?) You are the true Nairaland Troll Champion. Well done. #Lifegoals right?
You are fighting too hard for white privilege. Take a break.
wirinet: So it's no longer about Hunter Biden, Burisma or $10 million bribes. So the hearings and the impeachment threats is now about Joe Biden hanging out with KKK and fighting to keep segregation.
Shebi, you guys want to hold impeachment hearings for a current president for alleged crimes commited as vice president 8 years ago? Don't worry, the next Republican president would be impeached for an alleged crime he commited 20 years back by a democratic party led house.
wirinet: They wanted to investigate, question and charge Hunter Biden, but they were impeded. Who were the they? Don't they have names? Why is the Republican led house not investigating the officers that impeded the wheel of justice? Why not invite Jeff Sessions and Bill Barr who were the Attorney Generals at the time? Why not invite the FBI and DOJ officials directly involved in impeding the investigations. Why moan and cry from one whistleblower to another? 100 whistleblowers will not achieve anything other that rile up MAGAs.
I still ask, where is the crime? Wiring money to 100 Bidens is not a crime. If the Republican led house have concrete evidence of money laundering and tax evasion, they are aware that they can forward their evidence to relevant departments and then subpoena them if they fail to act. If the have actual evidence of Bribery against Joe Biden, why are they keeping them hidden from the public and relevant authorities. Afterall the Bribery was supposed to have taken place more than 8 years ago even before the Trump administration.
You guys are just repeating Benghazi and Hillary Emails. Years of legislative investigations without even a hint of indictment. All you guys after is just noise and wailing until after the elections.
If you watch the hearing you will know the answer. But I don't expect you to open your eyes. You make excuses for biden doing racists things, hanging out with the kkk and fighting to keep segregation.
basilico: So what percentage of black owned businesses were unjustifiably stopped from operating? 100%. (Maybe drugs). Give an estimate. Oh I hope you are aware that there were blacks who were slave owners in America Many of them freed slaves.
. There were whites who were slaves too. Africa was a trade center for slaves, everyone was going there to buy slaves. It was not like they went there and captured the slaves. I am not entirely sure about that... But I know there were trade between the white man and the black man.
AmazonTopaz: Good day and sorry for the late reply.
As a Liberal I am not an idiot so I understand with common sense and want to see the bigger picture. I have nothing against what adults what to do with their bodies as long as they are adults that is their business as long as no one is being hurt so identify as whatever on the surface I don't care.
However, as a Woman who identifies as a feminist, I do care and I agree with J.K Rowling, Chimamanda Adichie and radical feminists on this issue that transwomen are not and can never be women. Biological men have no business in women's spaces, children should not be allowed to change their sex because they do not understand the consequences or gravity of their actions.
Also, criticising transwomen for wanting to come into women's spaces is not transphobia. Let transwomen have their transwomen spaces and leave women alone. I am a woman and not a cis woman, I can't be a subset of my gender, a woman is a "human adult female"/ not a surgically enhanced one.
As Germaine Greer stated womanhood is not tied to feminity so saying that because you have boobs and wear make up, have long hair and heels that makes you a woman then that man is mad. Biology exists for a reason XY can never be XX and vice versa. All those nonsense about men seeing periods are rubbish because transmen who they say are men are biologically still women same as non-binary women. We must never discard biology and women especially the ones who claim to be feminist should stop being stupid and tell these confused shemales that they can form their own clique and feminism is not about the inclusion of biological confused men into women's spaces. I do not agree with the Matt Walsh and those people on the right and how they frame the trans issue, those ones are just full of hate and spread propaganda. That is the difference between radical feminist and other liberals who criticise transwomen we do it from a place of fact and the real life consequences disproving reality/biology while embracing delusion can have on the general safety and well-being of women. Transwomen hate women that is why they are obsessed with wanting to be in women's spaces to commit more attacks on us without being curtailed and this is what J.K Rowling is warning us about and I completely agree. The right on the other hand will not mind spreading hate on them they lie that trans people are after kids and that is not true. Which is why I will not support their own version it's clearly transohobia filled with lies and propaganda.
Transgenders need help which parts of gender affirming care provides not all of them go on with the surgery later and some later on regret doing it too which is why if anybody wants to change their sex it should be adults and not kids.
You are not a "hateful conservative" for feeling that way at all. I share same view but unlike conservatives I will not call for their hanging and spread lies.
Women's rights should not be sacrificed for transwomen and that is my own. They should get their own spaces and get off women's spaces. You hardly see transmen complaining about this issue. Men don't even regard these people but it has to be women who should be inclusive of biological males into their spaces. Hell no.
Ahahaha this Aba olo... identifies as a feminist. Hahaha.
budaatum: What you can't get is between your maga gop ideology that we disagree with and what you call woke, we go woke any day and will use wapo to do so when it works for us just as you used Fox.
You after all don't think the devil who says 'my body state's choice' would be preferred by me, or do you?
Far left push grooming agenda... You support it and claim parents of the children put explicit books in the library to make the schools look bad. That's far left mentality from you.
IjeBos: Yeah, this happens to be the "American Politics Thread - Joe Biden’s Presidency/Road To 2024!". If you don't like the discussion of slavery/racism in America as it pertains to the election (Desantis' School reforms), you should find another thread to troll in.
IjeBos: How much self hate does it take for a Nigerian to argue that Nigerian/African slaves transported to the US were better off in the US rahter than Nigeria/Africa because of skills they may have learned there like blacksmithing.
Really, how much do you hate yourself and the country you live in?
Aren't you the one who thinks he is better than Nigerians because you live in a country that enslave blacks from Nigeria and Africa?
Aren't you the one bragging about going to a white school?
basilico: Many of the enslaved from Africa ended up in Middle East and South America too. How come there is not a single black who plays for Argentina yet most South American teams have lots of black people?
As for Saudi Arabia there are no black descendants of slavery. The word eunuch should ring a bell.
Yes America treated their slaves horribly. Listen to yourself. But remember the republican party was the one that fought against slavery that the democrats wanted to keep. I repeat the democrat party fought to keep their slaves.
IjeBos: How much self hate does it take for a Nigerian to argue that Nigerian/African slaves transported to the US were better off in the US rahter than Nigeria/Africa because of skills they may have learned there like blacksmithing.
Really, how much do you hate yourself and the country you live in?
Who enslave the. Nigerians and Africans and sold them to the white man?
Answer this question.
You conveniently ignore my main point... And tried to swim in the pool of ignorance.
IjeBos: Right. Unfortunately didn't study Nigerian History. But being utterly stupid is a trend in the US right now esp. in the MAGA movement.
One of the members of the committee who wrote these reforms (unfortunately a lost black woman) thanked God for slavery, claiming “if it wasn’t for slavery, I might be somewhere in Africa worshiping a tree". Tell me what tree is that you worship? Just kidding obviously.
Humans benefit from the suffering of other humans. That's how it has always been. Slavery was something not unique to the united states. It was everywhere. Your focus on the United States only shows victimhood for no apparent reason.
People who died in flights from the 1940s to date did not die for nothing. Their deaths have made it safer today to fly. When someone says if it was not for their deaths, we would not be travelling. It is not that they are celebrating death, it is just that the suffering and efforts of others have put them in a better situation today.
I don't expect you to get it... You cannot tell when basilico was being sarcastic.
You'd prefer to sell blowjubs and 14yo screwing adults in books right?
If you are a man that killed 2 people while defending yourself. Buda hates you, if you are a groomer or pedo trying to groom kids... Buda loves and sympathizes with you.
IjeBos: Because to gain understanding of something you can do it simply by sitting in your village in Nigeria? Right? Idiot, get a passport, put some stamps in it, visit the countries and understand the culture of the places you repeatedly talk about, diversify your network, diversify the cultures of the people you know, diversify the things you read, use your mind when you do read and take your medication for whatever mental disorder you clearly have. Then, maybe.. maybe you may say something that has some understanding behind it.
A post ago, you didn't have a college degree. Now you have a "good" one? Lol. Ok..
IjeBos: I hear you. I don't get involved, because the more people make irrational arguments against it, the more it forces me to think about it. And the more I think about the more I don't see a rational argument against it (outside of minors). Religious sensibilities aren't a rational argument in a country with freedom of Religion and a supposed "separation" of Church and State.
In fact given this is a politics thread, it should be discussed here in terms of how it effects the election. If people want to discuss transsexuality in general, why not just start a new thread?
IjeBos: You don't seem to understand how Affirmative Action works/worked. Like most things you discuss here. Affirmative Action doesn't take wholly unqualified students and drop them in. It takes students who are mostly qualified, high GPA's and maybe a lower SAT score than the other applicants to fill out the percentage of students they want. Say the avg. Harvard SAT score is a 1500. They may accept someone who scored a 1200, which would still be around the 78th percentile. And the Harvard freshman class is roughly 2000 students with roughly 7% being African American. So, that would be ~140 African American Students in a class. So, let's posit someone got in based on Affirmative Action. That means that student was probably still a better applicant than 78% of the people taking the SAT and given they only accept 140 African Americans a given year, probably one of the best African American applicant that year. So, the question then becomes why didn't DEI help you into an IVY? And before you begin with you live in Nigeria, my g/f went to one of the top 4 schools in the US if not the world and she applied from SS in Nigeria.
But, I buried the lead. My high school that I tested in to is a Harvard feeder school.
wirinet: These are not issues I have to deal with and will probably not deal with in my neck of the woods. I even hate discussing LBGTQ matters as I can't really relate and I have more important issues to waste my thoughts and emotions on.
Homosexuality is an issue with few Nigerian families, but transgenderism involving mutilation of bodily organs is something extremely rare (even non existent) in the Nigerian society.
I have encountered a few Homosexuals, one even worked as a sales boy for me once. He was actually caught with another boy at the back of my shop doing the deed, he was stripped naked and almost killed. I gave him serious warnings but allowed him to continue working. Not more than three weeks later he was caught again. I had to let him go. As I said,I do not support criminalising Homosexuality, because I don't care what legal adults do in their private bedrooms. My problem is when they bring such acts into the public - whether gay or straight.
Again, you have no clue what transgender means. They say gender is a social construct right? And gender is how one feels... Why do they need to fake or construct private parts to go inline with the gender they want to switch to?
We are talking about peoples children. Being gay is different from being trans
wirinet: It depends on your definition of transgender. If it means having sexual attraction for a person of the same sex, then I have no problem with it as long as you don't take it beyond your bedroom. I believe I should not be in a position to impose bedroom etiquette on any body as long as minors and rape is not involved.
If transgender means having natural features, psychology and social behaviour opposite to the gender associated with the Instruments the person possesses, I also don't have any issues with that as long as I am directly involved.
But, if transgenderism means having surgical operation and hormonal treatment to convert one gender to another, then I do not support it. But if the person is a legal adult,have the finances and ready to bear the consequences, then that's their own problem.
I hate discussing sex and sexuality in public. Some people are too obsessed with these issues. They seem to verify Sigmund Freud's theory that men thinks of sex most of the time. These issues are very personal issues and should never be flunted in public. There are children reading and watching for God's sake. Muslim and Christian fundamentalists are too obsessed with sex, particularly who, how and when women have sex. The also seem not to have any level of self control, and becomes crazy on seeing any part of a woman's bare skin.
kkins25: Who gave the liberals the monopoly of common sense? The ones feeding their children hormone blockers, aren't they liberals like you and others mentioned? Funny guy. I think they've already answered your question. it's simple as ABC, do as you please but KEEP THAT SHIT AWAY FROM KIDS.
To add, people can do as they please, but that doesn't stop others from criticizing what they do.
Donjazzet is confused... At least he is not claiming to be a conservative like the degenerate ijebos
IjeBos: This is the dumb sh*t I'm talking about. You are trying to attack me because of a picture of my family's Rolls Royce while the other members of the Brain Dead Brigade are trying to attack me for going to Harvard? Huh? If it were Harvard-Yale weekend the latter may make sense. Maybe one of you went to Yale.. lol.. Let me stop.. lol
Maybe I should say "Thank You"... for CONTINUOUSLY mentioning all these great things about me? Lol. The rampant stupidity of you three is breathtaking.
IjeBos: Fact Check In the interest of not arguing with known mentally deranged idiots, for anyone truly interested in the details of this allegation, this is a pretty good tweet thread: https://twitter.com/thomasafine/status/1682085249243844608 Trying to blackmail Zelensky into making allegations like this was part of the reason Trump got impeached the first time. Warning, this stuff is pretty much in the weeds. I'm a politics/law nerd, so I find it interesting.
citing a leftwing junk to fact-check someone makes you a thicko. you are a certified Harvard idi.t.. stay your lain.
feedthenation: ---I'm totally against any of the present day 'wokeisms' in whatever shape or form, which are destabilising the fabric of families and communities---hence any of those long alphabet acronyms / labels starting with L.... don't sit well with me---
---Furthermore, I'm a christian-conservative who have strong preference for traditional family values, stability in the society where everyone plays their roles as expected and believe in the rule of law and order to protect lives and properties---limited governmental power in peoples affairs (Biden and the Democrats are presenting various policies accommodating all sorts)---
---Finally, for the information of NL Magadonians (they know themselves)---not everyone who doesn't support Donald J. Trump and his band of MAGA policies is a liberal---we just have a strong and deeper conservative political ideology compared to that 'Grifter' who is not fit to hold any political position anywhere in United States political landscape---
---Thanks @donjazzet, much respect---
all you said about who you are is laughable. hahaha
