bemeruca:Your assertion that it was because of Hunter Bidens reporting that the reporter was denied access is baseless.. there’s no fact to that..this means the conclusion from both parties were wrong. You are the hypocrite here.. You find it hard to condemn Trumps direct infringement on the first amendment.. You’re a Trump worshipper.. you should be ashamed of your adult self.. |

bayelsaowei:Those distinctions you are comparing don't make the Biden-era restrictions disappear. You started this conversation essentially arguing, “Did Biden did not ban the press” Once examples appeared, your argument progressively became: it wasn't the entire organization, it wasn't the hard pass, it was only one event, therefore it doesn't count. Now you are making excuses, and none of it changes what I told you from the beginning: I don't share your outrage over these organizations losing White House access. If they challenge it and a court orders their access restored, fine. I won't be outraged about that either. You keep demanding that I have the same moral reaction you have and then calling disagreement Trump worship. That's rhetoric, not an answer to what I've actually said. |

bayelsaowei:Did they tell you why he was denied access? Other than that what could be the reason? I don't go about posting everything Obama do and force you to share the same moral reaction with me. I post it and leave it if I ever post. Na you they always look for Republicans while ignoring the people (democrats) who did the thing first. Or make excuses for them. |

bayelsaowei:This is the your problem. You worship the media.. Someone once described media. They claim to be the watchdogs of democracy, but their coverage is just sanctimonious, punctilious grovelling to the highest bidder." |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Democrats Take Control Of Congress by bayelsaowei(m): 5:48pm On Sep 20 |
bemeruca:The personal reason from the reporter is his personal opinion and not an established fact.. But then because of the first amendment he is entitled to his opinion. And let me make this clear.. in terms of legal standing and precedence: 1. Presidents are not legally mandated to grant every outlet access to every interview. So access denial of some reporters by Presidents to specific events is still yet to be challenged legally. The next question would be is it the right thing to do by a president? It then becomes a Personal decision by individual presidents. Even at that I have condemned the Obamas incident that I sighted. 2. However there is a legal precedence for a president to impose a blanket White House campus wide ban on any established media outlet, as it directly violates Fifth Amendment due process and First Amendment protections. |

bayelsaowei:Did Biden admin give you any reason? Did Trump ban CNN's opinion? How many media house will conduct one interview? If your answers are many why is he singled out? Why can't you make the argument that Trump is not granting CNN interview as well? Biden imposes a blanket ban, you are making excuses. Trump imposes a ban or blanket ban; you are complaining. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Democrats Take Control Of Congress by bayelsaowei(m): 6:01pm On Sep 20 |
bemeruca:Biden didn’t impose a blanket ban. The article you posted proved that. Abi you no read your post? Trumps current ban is a total ban on the mentioned news outlets from the white house.. Open your eyes and read the news.. Gosh!! |

bayelsaowei:Why did his admin ban Steven Nelson then? Response to him: “We are unable to accommodate your credential request.” |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Democrats Take Control Of Congress by bayelsaowei(m): 6:12pm On Sep 20 |
bemeruca:Denial of a reporter from a specific event and the banning of an established media outlet in its entirety from the White House are two different things. It’s exactly what I have been explaining to you from previous posts. One is discretionary (though from my ethical point of view I have condemned it), while the other is a direct violation of the constitution (1st and 5th amendment) 🤦🏾🤦🏾. Trump is overreaching.. your duty, if your head is/was correct is to condemn his actions. |

| Re: American Politics Thread: Democrats Take Control Of Congress by bemeruca: 6:29pm On Sep 20 |
bayelsaowei:I still won't give you the condemnation you're demanding from me simply because you believe I'm morally required to share your reaction. I don't care CNN lose their White House access. Considering the relationship between Trump and these outlets and the way they cover him, I have very little sympathy for them. They should go to court and rightly so. I cannot condemn someone for asking people who treat him or her badly at every turn for not coming to their office. CNN behave themselves and treat IRGC officers with respect. your insistence of me to condemn Trump's decision or I support totalitarianism is balderdash. Those proposition are different and does not apply. I can think CNN deserved to lose White House access because of how it has conducted itself toward Trump while simultaneously accepting that the Constitution may limit Trump's ability to impose that consequence. Which is precisely why I said they should go to court. I haven't said court she ignore their right too, and I still won't care if that happens. |

bayelsaowei:When you are in the same frequency with her, you know you are on the wrong side of things. You are seeing a bitter woman, and you think she is rational. This is cult-like behavior |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Democrats Take Control Of Congress by bayelsaowei(m): 7:07pm On Sep 20 |
bemeruca:Oh she is bitter, but still a Republican.. a woman who spent her money campaigning for Trump is now bitter, and then you a Nigerian is now more republican than her.. Clap for yourself.. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Democrats Take Control Of Congress by bayelsaowei(m): 7:43pm On Sep 20 |
bemeruca:The courts would overturn the ban and CNN will come back to hold your orange god accountable.. You and Trump can keep throwing tantrums, acting like infants. The constitution would prevail over the feelings of your tiny god. Nonsense!!! |

Don't know what to think of AI Strike Force. Liberals want to control AI just like they demanded control of the Climate Change Liberals have conjured up so many hoaxes during my lifetime that it's a welcome relief for the most powerful person to enumerate them. AI will kill humanity. Sounds familiar .

bemeruca:He's answered it was CNN not Joe Biden. When pointed out that Biden denied 442 journalists ,a pass he starts blubbering. Bayelsaowe always i picks a particular action by Trump .He demands you condemn it unequivocally .I've always retorted that I won't join his choir to prove I can disagree with Trump.. ( I do Especially with covid vaccine). He uses that to call me a cultist.. He completely ignores what liberals do. Bayelsaowei I'm still waiting for Trump worst thing compared to Obama's worst.I want to hear from you the worst thing you consider Obama did. |

basilico:Trump is yet to do his worst thing.. He has attacked critical amendments in the American constitution. You and other minions have cheered him. Always remember that what you cheer today may end up swallowing you tomorrow. And this 442 story you guys are pandering is the same story I have watched many conservative reps spew online..at least I have been able to help you folks understand the difference between denying a reporter access to an event in the White House versus banning a media organization from accessing the White House. One is discretionary and the other is directly attacking the 1st and 5th amendment. And if I know you guys very well, you have a penchant for supporting whatever or whoever tramples on the American constitution.. but the end result is never positive. |

bemeruca:Where was your worshipping soul when CNN stood in solidarity with Fox News? CNN isn’t the president of the United States. You, CNN, along with other individuals, are free to express their opinions. However, the President of the United States is expected to operate within the ambits of the Constitution. I understand that since supporting Trump the American Constitution has seemed unfamiliar to you. |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Democrats Take Control Of Congress by basilico: 11:16am On Sep 21 |
A question is answered. What's the worst thing Trump.has ever done. What's the worst thing Obama has ever done. No sideshows let's deal with that bayelsaowei: |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Democrats Take Control Of Congress by bayelsaowei(m): 12:38pm On Sep 21 |
basilico:I don’t think I have the strength for this but I’ve captured one below. However, the typical you (the propaganda in you) would likely turn the narrative on its head. One of the worst things he’s done was energizing his base with his election fraud antics/pronouncement that led to the January 6th Capitol attack and then pardoning the insurrectionists. Trump is currently attempting to erase that horrific incident from history books. Trump hasn’t done the worst yet. I foresee sinister moves from him if Democrats win the midterms. He’d likely do something deeply unconstitutional – something the US has never seen from a president. You know he keeps shocking every right-thinking person with his actions. I await your pile of propaganda.. |

IbeOkehie:Master Ibe Keep enjoying your life under Trump other Americans are doing the same as well. They have record low crime in their cities They have secure cities. They have controlled immigration I heard prescription drugs are at all time lows (kindly verify this) They have tax cuts through the OBBB While the insufferable leftists who only wail continue to do what they do best |

I think you forget that you were the one who posted this "very specific symbolism" here and into our awareness. And it sounds like you do not know that symbolism is subjective and not objective at all, which is why you can nut see it I guess. That and the fact you are impervious to what it symbolises since it never affected you and you lack empathy for those affected. bemeruca: |

This thread boy. We have Nigerians who live in Nigeria, arguing for no regulation, corruption, and now a non-independnt press. It's one thing for people like Raumdeuter who have taken all this stuff for granted, but for people who live the worst of it? Being MAGA or wanting to be MAGA(don't live in the US), really breaks one's ability to reason. I just realized I assume MAGA at one point had an ability to reason. Maybe that's my bias in still believing the best in people. So, is it the classic chicken and egg principle. Which came first, the lack of reasoning which turned them to MAGA or MAGA which broke their ability to reason? |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Democrats Take Control Of Congress by raumdeuter: 3:18pm On Sep 21 |
IjeBos:So you are broken and trying to find what broke you? If you look inwards and start from home you might find the solution and believe its not random folks on the internet |
