"They can release as many grainy 20-plus-year-old photos as they want, but this isn't about Bill Clinton," Ureña said. "There are two types of people here. The first group knew nothing and cut Epstein off before his crimes came to light. The second group continued relationships after that. We're in the first. No amount of stalling by people in the second group will change that."


We are living in interesting times o!

We knew it was a "get Trump" bone to many MSM dogs.

Nigerians shout “Giant of Africa” unprovoked because:

*They overcompensate for structural weaknesses.
*They equate loudness with authority.
*Their leaders have spent decades telling them they’re the* best blacks*, so they grow up expecting other blacks to bow down to them.
*Social norms reward showing off as proof of strength.

That’s why the calmer, more deliberate, non-bending South African blacks trigger them more than anyone else on the continent. At the end of the day, it’s fragile ego dressed up as power....loud, performative, and built on decades of hype
Alright. It's clear to me now what this is about.

Lionessza6:
You’re not wrong that South African institutions have cracks. Of course they do. No serious country pretends otherwise. The point isn’t that our systems are perfect...it’s that they exist, persist, and still constrain collapse.

A cracked dam is not the same thing as no dam.A failing court is not the same thing as no court.A stressed grid is not the same thing as permanent darkness.
In this your post, I came away with the impression that we don't have systems or institutions in Nigeria.


And in this post below, you changed your narrative to imply that we have systems/institutions, it's just that "they're not "functioning" as they should be (I guess to the standards you lot in SA expects) right?

Lionessza6:
I’m not denying Nigeria has courts, elections, markets, or regulators. Of course it does. My point isn’t existence...it’s reliability and primacy.

In Nigeria, courts function, but patronage often resolves disputes faster than law. Elections occur, but outcomes are regularly contested through power-brokering, not just institutions. Capital markets exist, yet serious capital hedges offshore because enforcement risk is assumed. Value is produced, yes..but the most upwardly mobile Nigerians still plan around exit, not reinvestment.

That’s not a newspaper take....that’s observable behavior: remittance dependence, asset externalization, and career trajectories optimized for leaving or hedging.

Nigeria runs on parallel systems: the formal one and the informal one. People succeed by knowing which to use when. That’s adaptive and impressive...but it’s not the same as institutions being the default.

So this isn’t about dismissing Nigeria’s complexity. It’s about recognizing that when systems are optional, resilience rises...but compounding power doesn’t.💁‍♀️
One thing for me: What's this about anyway, are you comparing systems/institutions in Nigeria and South Africa with the end game to show which is superior to the other or what?

That's what I've said all along, democrats and the left don't care about the victims. They only want to see Trump muddied and possibly removed from power.
Epstein to democrats starts and stops with Trump.
I have read unredacted copies of the grand jury testimonies of Ghislaine ,Virginia Giuffrey, Epstein's butler, his co-pilot and a few others They exonerated Trump completely . I think I posted them here some years ago. They were redacted stupidly,pasting them to notepad removed the hidden parts.
It has always been a "get Trump" move by the democraps. I said that several months back too.

MTG becomes eligible for pension if she resigns after January.
Her bill banning transition surgeries on minors passed the house 216-211 yesterday.

Bill makes it criminal to “knowingly perform, or attempt to perform, genital or bodily mutilation on another person who is a minor” with penalties of up to ten years in prison. It further protects minors from chemical castration or hormonal treatments.
Parents who facilitate, consent to, or transport the minor to receive sex change surgeries could also be charged.


Codifies Trump executive order.
Brain development in children is not considered complete until around 18 years,that's why they are not allowed to drive,buy drinks ,vote or have sex etc. Children decisions are mainly influenced by the surroundings ,,family,school and peer .
211 Democrats think minors are developed enough to make lifelong decisions to undergo transition surgeries .
Actually it's 207 Democrats + 4 GOP. Let that sink in

Bayelsaowei ,what you think. I hate the vile Trump for initiating this law?
I have no problem with anyone above 18 undergoing a transition. Govt or military should not fund these surgeries and subsequent hormone replacement drugs .
Many thanks Bas for sharing this info. I can never understand the cruelty, the hate and evil that drives people to think about changing the biological details that defines a child at such an early stage in their lives. I wept bitterly many times when I read how far demonic forces backed by cruel people - in both parties, left or right, have gone to inflict unimaginable pain on humans!

I am reading on The Hill right now that the bill passed in the House may not scale through at the Senate though - since it will be difficult for it to garner the required 60 votes needed to go through.

Oh Lord come, it is enough. Take us away from this cursed and evil world!

UrVillageChief:
Tears don full everywhere as predicted grin grin. Please answer those simple questions without trying to be smart🙏🏼
FYI, I’m not a Christian and secondly, if you hadn’t dedicated too much time to ur stone worshipper slavemasters’ language instead of the civilized world western education, you would have read that I constantly mentioned other religions like Judaism, Hinduism and Buddhism, why didn’t you call me a Jew or Hindu or Buddhist?🤣
Again, I’m asking that very question you evaded, since you claimed it’s the West’s invasions of Arab Muslims countries that led to the radicalization of Muslims across the globe, so I ask, did the US also invade the reasonings of those supposedly educated youths in Sokoto to the point that they felt it was okay, humane and justifiable to kill a fellow human being for allegedly insulting your ‘holy’ prophet?
Was their invasion responsible for the radicalization of those 34 Muslim lawyers who rose up to defend the killers?
My friend, the Christians, Jews, Buddhists and Hindus will never harbor the thoughts of killing you for insulting Jesus, Moses/Abraham, Lord Buddha and Shiva respectively instead, they would find a way to preach love to you with the aim of making you join their folds and this is because these religion are practiced by sane people who believe in the sanctity of human lives.
To your last paragraph, can you show me proof of where anyone is killed for blasphemy in this very century or it’s just your regular taqqiyah?
Show me news headline where a Christian or Jews believers are seen beheading a fellow human over the allegation of blasphemy. Those things are in their books (The Torah/the sold testament) but these people have evolved that nobody practices those archaic laws of Moses anymore. No, these people don’t think like the stone worshippers who are still stuck in the 14th century. Today, the Jews are one of the sweetest creatures on earth and that’s if you don’t look for their trouble because dealing with stone worshippers is their core purpose in life.
Like I said earlier, take your taqqiyah to those gullible fellows who are ready to swallow it and quit trying it on a man old enough to birth you.
We patiently await his answers to your poignant questions. Meanwhile, thanks for exposing the hatred and the evil intentions this sect have for people who practice faiths different from theirs.

DomPerignon:
Hannukah is supposedly a Jewish holiday celebrating the genocide of Greeks in present day occupied Palestine by the Maccabee terrorist organization - history's first recorded terrorist movement.

The other two other Jewish holiday days are Passover and Purim both of which also celebrate the mass murder of Jewish enemies.

Passover is in remembrance of the Jewish god genociding the first born of every Egyptian household.

Purim celebrates the Jewish seductress and her sorcerer father , Mordecai getting Esther's husband , Xerxes I to execute Haman and all his household and affiliates for warning Xerxes of Jewish meddling and back stabbing their host.

No other religion celebrates the genocide of their enemies like that of Pharasism alias modern day Judaism.
You got it all wrong right there, kiddo.

The white came with two weapon, the bible and the gun.
If he can't humble you with the bible, he crumbles you with the gun.
Today we are living with believe that an imaginary creature which we haven't seen before will come and carry everyone to heaven and we will live and talk with lions.

Seems like a bed time story for a 5years old
Wrong argument.

The Bible actually predates the "white" man. That the Bible was translated into English and handed down to us doesn't make it a white man's invention. Also, the God of the Israelites, He is the God of gods, the King of kings and Lord of lords. The creator of the Universe. And say what you like, believe what you may, God is real. And like Righteousness stated, Jesus (God in human form - for with our God, nothing shall be impossible - Mark 10:27), one who saw it all right from the beginning and who has been in Heaven and has gone through the depths of Hell and back said. "Fear Him, who after killing the body hath the power to cast the soul in Hell"

"And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever" - Rev 20:10.

God does not desire that anyone should end up in Hell. That dreadful, horrible place was meant for the Devil and the demons.

I know it's a stretch for many people - this whole simple "believe and confess your sins and you will be saved" jingos, right? Sounds too easy to be what one needs to do to be saved. But it is what it is.

And yes, the 5-yead old example you stated is exactly the type of people God wants - apt. I believe God doesn't want to complicate things.
"and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. - Matt 18:3

The US saying you should carry your own defence and you went on a rant shows how pained you are, No one in the US cares about your UK or even the continent.
They see you are leeches who cannot fend for themselves without begging big brother for help forge a new path and stop being a leech

It took President Trump for force you to come up with 5% of your GDP for your own defence

Pre Trump while US was spending almost 4% the leech UK was barely spending 2% of their GDP
Now time for you to spend and defend yourselves, No more free lunch.
They will rather hand all the defense funds to people who want to cause them harm - the agents of Western Civilization collapse aka "garbage Somalis" and people who contribute "net zero" to their economies. Talk about capitulating to their enemies' demands - and they know this!

Sounds like they found their fall guy. People who follow and obey Trump without question always end up paying with their lives and/or their careers.

This is exactly why Sen Kelly had to remind service members that they will take the fall if they obey illegal orders.

Veterans and service members know that this is standard, regular training. I hope service members continue to uphold their oath to the constitution and refuse to obey illegal orders.

I’m no lawyer but last time I checked it’s illegal to shoot and kill unverified people under suspicion that they “might be” drug dealers. It’s a stupid thing to do and even stupider thing to defend.
Sounds like making a mountain out of a molehill. Drug boats knew the US Navy destroyers are on the sea. Must have been warned but refused to heed warnings (likely several of them), then they got hit. Liberals are crying "human rights" for people who are actively involved in "human deaths". We are living in strange times. And the liberals are in league with the enemies.

- Qatar is giving more money to the British and US education (as I stated in an earlier post, almost all the Ivy league schools are "sponsored" by foreign entities) than their countries
- Qatar IS funding Tucker Carlson! - A classic example of "he who pays the piper dictates the tune"
- Liberals want to destroy Western Hegemony and the Islamists also want to destroy Western Hegemony, they basically flocked together to form a "united" front, what is now called the RED-GREEN Alliance to destroy the West, their culture and traditions!

You are right o. Hmnn. Trump said we don’t have “enough” Americans to fill critical tech jobs and so we need to bring in people from elsewhere - including Chinese. And here we are “saying” mass migration is a threat to Western Civilisation ? Perhaps the Chinese that will be brought in will assimilate ( and thus not become a threat) - but how can we tell ?

Civil discourse without recourse to abusive words is the right way to go. Going emotional and using abusive words will always stifle and impede ones ability to articulate his or her points. In that regards, I applaud Seun and his tech guys for doing their best to restore sanity on the board.

When I joined Nairaland back in 2005, the crop of people I exchanged ideas and argued with were sane, respectful and decent set of people. When I started reading vulgar and repulsive comments from the likes of obrig and others, I knew Seun must be alerted to do something. Thank God he did.

Stop the cap!!!
The God of their forefathers (Yahweh) , whom they served help them create the greatest civilization ( defense, finance, medical advancement, administration, government).
The American government and constitution were written by men who knew the Bible and their morals were drawn from the Bible, Isaiah 33:22,
For the LORD is our judge(Judiciary), the LORD is our lawgiver(legislature), the LORD is our king(Executive)"; it is he who will save us.
As regards "slavery" all civilization on earth participated in slavery untill the "Christian Civilization"abolished it and actually put assets and men on the sea to put an end to transatlantic slavery. America actually fought a civil war to end slavery, by men who from the Bible understood that all men are created in God's image, so what are you sayinghuh
Btw, kindly help us with the Bible verse used to defend slavery!!!!!
