You would not know because you are already biased .
He was elected to unite people, not split them into fragments. Under him taking a knee became the norm by entitled overpaid sports people.
Gender redefined to be more than 2.
I can go on
You are very foolish. Taking a knee is freedom of expression, and did that not intensify during Trumps era? Why did Trump not stop it if it's within a Presidents remit to do so?

After the -Great Hope won, he begun dividing the society on black/brown/white, rich poor (taxation), gender, criminals vs peaceful,climate scepticism etc.

I never understood his slogan Change you can believe in.
You are suffering from mental illness and no one will tell you. Obama dividing society? Maybe in the bunker in the village where you live, admittedly reading far right websites everyday.

The great divider of society according to race, sex and creed is the orange buffoon, the father of hatred.

A lot of people have a tinge of conservative values. Eg noone will be proud of their children coming out of the closet. No one wants to see his little boy playing with dollies and wearing dresses. Many actually go to church .

Then Obama comes.They lose their thinking and deitify him. The great hope who can do no wrong.
To cover their being Obama sycophants. they call the rational people cultists.
Will you shut up about your Obama obsession

Kevin McCarthy last week said "No one questions that Biden won the election" That is the highest Republican in Congress, McConnel has said the same in the past

So who else that matters is left
After how many months. Remind me how McCarty voted on January 6th

Most Republicans have made peace with Biden winning the election and moved on, there will always be people who wont accept or believe whatever hits them in the face. When Trump Bush, Obama etc won there were some democrats who never accepted.That is why its a democracy every sane and lunatic get their say and the majority who are sane gets their way
Which Republicans have made peace with the result when those who accepted the results are getting primaried left, right and centre. At the same time, Republicans are ramping up authoritarianism and perfecting voter suppression tactics.

Let's not forget that Texas lawsuit where virtually every Republican State signed up as amicus. Republicans are finished as a decent party my friend. Even George Bush, Cheney and co have become powerless puppies in the party.

That is because you hear most American liberals who want to cry wolf at every opportunity. Everything is about the politics of winning the next election and for them right now keeping Trump in the news everyday is a winning strategy. I dont blame them for it that is why you need to discern your own truth

There are fake outrage from both sides, CNN and Fox are the channels close to the center on both sides and both still have their obvious biases As an intelligent person you will sieve through the chaff

I wont watch MSNBC neither will I watch OANN.

What is the other side of listening to both sides? You will rather be in the CNN and MSNBC echo chamber that believes there is a bogeyman killing people in every street corner or is it not the same America we live where different races and religion coexist peacefully despite pockets of extremists

On the Sport thread last week you were defending UK as not a racist country and shouldnt be characterized by the actions of a few thousands, Going by Social Media characterization post Euro, Someone outside the UK will think the racists rule over UK given their loud and viral tweets about the black players.
That is exactly the way America is. A few loud lunatics on both sides and majority sane people in the middle who just mind their business
FOX is nowhere close to the centre, that's the problem you have.

Then it would be better you follow Reuters, Financial Times and co if you think FOX are centrist.

I'm not in any echo chamber. My.main news source is Daily Mail which is considered right wing in UK. I don't read them particularly for their journalism but I like the convenience of their app. In the UK, Daily Telegraph is what you would call centre-right and The Independent is what you would call centre-left. Most UK residents would consider the paper I read way to the right but they are puppies compared to FOX.

95% of UK people will be offended if they come in your house and see you watching FOX.

Different opinions is part of what makes a Democracy, Members can actually disregard it but they are in the minority. In a committee of 15, what difference does it take when you have 3 dissidents? They get their say and eventually majority opinion rules

Is it ever possible on any issue to have 100% agreement
They will just.muddy the waters with more lies like they did on January 6th, and like they are doing in Arizona now. There is no bipartisanship with people who do not follow the basic tenets of democracy.

There are many questions unanswered from the January 6 insurrection that needs to be answered, Some people are still walking free today and a commission into it will unveil everything. These "cultists" are members of congress and were duly chosen by their party to partake in the investigation

January 6 was an assault on democracy and everything about the remote cause needs to be aired, there are sponsors and actors still walking free today
Do you really want a real inquiry so we can stop future occurrence or just to play to the gallery about January 6 so it becomes a charade?

What is wrong with Fox News or any news media? I watch both sides and make my deductions.

What is dangerous about hearing everyone. Its one of the beauties of democracy, everyone gets a hearing, their opinion gets out but the majority still carry the day

Whatever lie they told or believe still deserves to be heard.
It doesn't work like that. This is an assault on democracy and those who partook in the assault whether through the ballot or physically have no say in it. There are many Republicans who did not vote to decertify the election who could be nominated. Anything else would be a mockery.

Fox News has drifted way right since the election. They were already bad enough before the election. Taking views from "both sides" is actually ingesting poison at this point and it's starting to show in your viewpoints. Unfortunately I don't think America has a centre-right media where you can get solid views. So you have a choice to either become Independent or follow Fox News all the way down the rabbit hole.

A station like Fox will not even be tolerated by Conservatives in my country. Most people on this thread don't even know I'm a Conservative because their definition of Conservatism which they get from America is actually way out cültism and intolerance.

Pelosi rejects 2 GOP Reps nominated into the January 6 committee
McCarthy withdraws all GOP reps in the committee

Doesn't look like they are interested in the outcome of the committee but just want to make a show
Wetin consign you inside? Is Jan 6th not worthy of a show, and why are you holding brief for McCarthy?

Was McCarthy not one of the insurrectionists who voted not to certify? Furthermore he wants to nominate two cultists who voted to overturn the election to the panel.

Jan 6th was a sickening assault on democracy, and somehow the GQP want to make a.mockery of the investigation, and you are here holding brief.

What's worse is that right wing media has now programmed you to not see anything disgusting in the downplaying of that incident by the nomination of insurrectionists to oversee the panel. Is it not the same lie the two nominees continuously expounded that made those people to march on the Capitol?

This is the equivalent of nominating Sinn Fein to a panel investigating the crimes of the IRA.

Do yourself a favour and log off Fox News for a couple of months. You are drifting into dangerous territory.

At this point I'm looking forward to the Haaland alternatives. I hate when something drags for so long with little to no progress.

Berardi took his chance at the Euros. I might have to watch highlights and clips of him though.
Berardi is not a Haaland alternative. He's a winger

This is not definitive. They seem to have settled some points around deposition of the former SEC director, not the case in it's entirety. If a settlement is reached, XRP will pump to shege . . .at least 2x. Abeg mention me if you come across anything with regard to settlement of this case

My colleague sent me a video on whatsapp few minutes ago, I watched and I am presently gutted at how some Nigerians really think angry

This guy joins a bus that has the Nigerian female football team ( super Falcons) on board and he flashes a camera at their faces calling them all sorts of derogatory names for representing a country led by "Buhari a terrorist". He claims he's a Nigeria who has lived in Vienna, Austria for years and calls them cowards for resprensting Nigeria that is governed by a terrorist and all.

I mean we even those of us who live in Nigeria that have felt the negative impact of Buhari's rule won't just embarrass fellow Nigerians trying to represent us out there. To think.some of those falcon ladies are some foreign based players with roots to Nigeria just trying to represent the country for pride like that Leicester lady that was recently called up to the team. I'm really embarrassed watching the video sef.

I no just know how some people reason o. Even at the height of abacha’s dictatorship when people were cooking with “sawdust stove “ , Nigeria was still represented at international sporting competitions and nobody blackmailed them for being cowards
I saw that. That Oyinbo girl that plays for Leicester Ashleigh Plumtree who recently declared for Falcons was on the train. I was just laughing. She no know say she done buy market.

If you live in Nigeria and you are here debating American politics with venom irrespective of the side you support and you have not registered to vote or do not have your PVC then you are a bloody hypocrite who lacks the ethical or moral compass to engage in such conversations.

Please, redirect your energy to registering to vote in the forthcoming elections (local/State and Federal) in Nigeria. After you register please, take it a step further by encouraging your friends and community to register. Then on Election Day, go out and cast your vote and resist the temptation to sell your vote for a small packet of garri/sugar and groundnut.

Nigeria is no longer dying a slow death, it has become a fast death with no reprieve. Leave American politics alone! If anything use the American experience to educate your community that voting with your conscience is the only way to effect change.
In other words, Umudike coons should Take Care of Home.
