What is Center right about the Democratic party?
Putting corporate interests at the forefront of every policy

Funding sources
Refusal to push left leaning policies like more welfare, medical cover for everyone, etc

I can go on and on

The democratic party of today stand for NONE of the above
Obamacare is good for america but is a disgrace here in Europe
They had to water down the original idea just to get it passed
NHS is a general consensus in the UK AND any govt that messes with it will cause chaos on tbe streets, but Obama was biting his nails when it was time for the vote

I repeat
USA has a far right and centre right party
No left wing party
Polite reminder.
Water is wet.

Michael Wolf sued Melania Trump after she sued him regarding her relationship with Epstein.
His plan is to depose her and ask her questions under oath about her relationship with Epstein.

I think it's a Brilliant Strategy.
Glad someone is pushing back on these bogus Lawsuits by Trump and Co.

Author Michael Wolff says his explosive lawsuit against Melania Trump will lift the “dark curtain” on the “secrets” entangling the first lady, President Donald Trump, and Jeffrey Epstein.

The Trump biographer and co-host of the Daily Beast’s hit podcast Inside Trump’s Head sued Melania on Tuesday, accusing her of assaulting his free speech and trying to stifle “legitimate inquiry” into the late convicted sex offender.

In the latest episode of the podcast, Wolff told co-host Joanna Coles that his lawsuit, filed in a New York State court, could expose new layers of the Trumps’ relationship with Epstein thanks to the subpoena powers it gives him.
“I can subpoena the first lady, the president, and anyone else who might shed light on the relationship of Donald Trump and Melania Trump to Jeffrey Epstein,” the best-selling author said. “In other words, this might be a way to actually get to the bottom of this story, to open the curtain, the dark curtain. And we’ll see how they feel about that.”

Obviously not, you didn't watch the video, or you wouldn't be misrepresenting the position of some/many Israelis and the IDF regarding how much land they intend to steal.

Good thing is some will watch it and it will inform their opinion of you.

If Richard Lynn says genes make people smarter, then I suggest you go read some history and come tell me why non-caucasian countries have prospered a lot more in the past. Also get a dictionary so you might consider 'correlation' does not mean 'causation'.

But if that's too much for you, please argue with me that genes will make Caucasians do better than you in class and in your life.

Do know that I have posted extensively about the superiority of the UK education system over that of Nigeria. It does not mean you'd do worse than Brits in the same class because your Nigerian genes limit you.

I'm not particularly interested in what others apart from your very self believes at the moment, thank you very much.

If I were interested in what others believed, I'd be discussing with them and not you. So stick to what you believe please.

My general opinion of belief can be read here

It's like you've never come across 'IQ and the Wealth of Nations.' by Richard Lynn (or so). A good section of them do believe their genes make them smarter than others, especially Africans that they say are the least intelligent race
Note the person I responded to believes Caucasian's genes make them smarter than black him, and one more does not validate that opinion as far as I am concerned.

And the Richard Lynn you mentioned has done such shoddy work that makes his opinion and belief not worth considering, not to talk of me wasting my time to read a book he wrote.

I don't believe genes make a race more intelligent. The environment, mentoring,ambition ,,,role models, and culture can contribute to specific groups of people being smarter than others though.
Wisdom iand intelligence is somewhat hereditary but a lot of factors come into play before it's apparent..
The education system is a major player. I like the IGCSE a lot.

All you said plays a factor, but I believe a person's DNA also plays a significant part in their intelligence.
People can coach themselves on how to reason and think in a certain way or profession. DNA has a role on how fast they grasp or can expand on the information they took in.

Thats what I believe

Both you of agreed that some level of natural endowment is involved. The key thing is application and how much resources and dedication you put towards it though some might need 4hrs to understand what others will get in 30mins

I also agree that there are some genetic components to it because I have seen some families that everyone in that house is super smart

Exactly the point I am making. People in the same environment, learning the same thing. It takes one 30 seconds to get it and expand further on it with his own critical thinking while it took the other hours with no expansion at all.

I won't rule out DNA also. I think there are good genes and bad genes.
Good genes get extra sharpened by many factors like the ones I mentioned . I should have added discipline.

And the people talking smack about those who need handouts are also those in support of companies paying minimum wage or less. Because “it’ll drive manufacturing to other countries if we force companies to pay livable wages”. Like they are not already taking their production elsewhere anyway.
🚨 Real talk 🚨

You workin’ full-time makin’ $14/hr.
Bring home $1,600 a month.

Rent $1,000
Lights $150
Car $250
Insurance $150

👀 That’s your whole bag GONE.

Then winter hit. Light bill $600.
You can’t pay it. They cut it off.
Lease say “no lights = eviction.”
Judge don’t care. 10 days to pack ya life.

You find a cheaper spot but — boom — credit check say DENIED.
You ain’t got $1,300 to move in anyway.
Landlord pull up with the cops, locks changed.

Now it’s just you, your kid, and a car.
Truck stop showers. Gas station meals.
Somebody call CPS. They take ya baby. 💔
Boss fire you too.

Car window smashed.
Insurance talkin’ $1,000 deductible.
Shelter full. No help.

And just like that… 🫢
You ain’t “lazy.” You just lost everything.

All it take is:
💸 One bill.
🚗 One accident.
📉 One layoff.
🔥 One fire.

Before you talk down on people strugglin’ —
Remember: life be spinnin’ the block FAST.
Nobody safe.

Stay humble. Stay kind. 🙏🏽❤️

People in the same environment are learning the same thing. This environment could be from the same home with the same parents.

No one is talking about race here except you.

I don't know why people who hate white people, obvious racists, especially in the black community, choose white Boyfriends, in your case, and for others like Ilhan Omar, KJP, Don Lemon, etc. All these people are openly racist but have a white spouse. This should be a case study.

What I don’t know is where these dweebs on this forum will run to. They’ll probably change their monikers and pretend they never cheered when half undressed children were being pulled from their sleep and zip tied in the streets because they live in blue states.
Someone like Joe Rogan can even see it and call it wrong yet some on this forum still cheer.

I remember when I “fear mongered” about other things too. And they didn’t even let the steam settle before they proved it all correct. Those of you who think a dictator is fine as long as he’s your dictator will learn the very very hard way.

From the other 98%
It's actually happening. As 2026 approaches, Trump and Hegseth are building the conditions for something no one thought possible here — a Trump-led coup against our Constitution.

Inside the Pentagon, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is tearing out the legal guardrails that have kept the U.S. military accountable for generations.
The senior military lawyers — the Judge Advocate Generals, or JAGs — are being pushed out.

These are the people who tell commanders when an order is illegal. Those JAG officers are the last internal barrier between the Constitution and a president who sees the armed forces as a personal tool. When they’re gone, there’s no one left to say “no.”

At the Department of Homeland Security, Trump has installed election-denial activists in key roles. The New York Times reports that Heather Honey, a former private investigator who helped spread false fraud claims about 2020, suggested the president could declare a national emergency in 2026 to “federalize” elections—taking power away from state officials who actually run them.

Voting-rights groups call it exactly what it is: “a federal strategy to control elections and rig our democracy.”

Put those two efforts together—control over elections and control over the military—and a picture starts to form. One arm consolidates political power; the other dismantles the institutions that could resist it.

Trump advisers like Steve Bannon are already talking openly about a “third term” and boasting that a plan is in place to make it happen. Whether that’s bluster or blueprint, the danger is the same: a movement testing how far it can push the boundaries of law and loyalty.

This is how democracies slide—slowly, legally, one rationalization at a time. Replace the watchdogs. Rewrite the rules. Rebrand power grabs as “reforms.” By the time the public wakes up, the guardrails are gone.

Trump has openly said he wants generals who show “total loyalty.”
Hegseth is making that happen.

The military’s independence — the very idea that no president can use the armed forces as his personal army — is being dismantled piece by piece.

And if we don’t say it out loud now, it may soon be too late to say anything at all.
