PrideofLincoln1:He can't do anything anymore. Yesterday's stunt was his last gambit and it failed. If he should try any shit, the Vice President and top non political members of the Pentagon along with top US generals will instantly invoke the 25th and have him under house arrest until the 20th of January. You see Mike Pence usurping the powers of the President yesterday by summoning the National Guard and they obeyed. I say it once again Trump is now powerless. He can only rant from now on. |
GamalNasser:Everyone on agrees that any aggrieved person or party should seek all legal options to seek redress. But, the option does not involve using threats and violence. You option should stop at the courts. It's the courts duty to interprete the constitution and not one single individual or party. Trump wants to use executive force to impose his will on the US. What do you think would have happened if the Congress failed to ratify Biden's electors and made Trump President instead? Biden would have gone to the Supreme Court to nullity Congress decision as illegal and reinstate Biden as President. The Supreme Court would have affirmed no where in the constitution did it state that Congress has the powers to determine the President of the union. It is the states that determine the President. Then we would have 2 presidents in the US. One recognised by the states and courts, and one recognised by the Congress. |
GamalNasser:So you are suggesting that the US should be passing through this type of political trauma every 4 years. That the losser to presidential election should never concede elections again (tl Trump has still not concede that he lost the election ). And that the US Congress should spend days if now weeks debating the election results in all 50 states before the results can be ratified. How long do you thing the US can survive if there is a crisis every 4 years? Then imagine what happens if every governor behaves like Trump and refuses to concede even after exhausting the legal process? So encouraging your supporters to break into capitol and disrupting the ratification of result is an option? Putting the lives of the Vice President, Congress members and their staff and police officers at risk is now an option? The way you Trump supporters reason is unbelievable dumb. |
Fahdiga:You sound very stupid. You mean Joe Biden was able to rig 6 state elections organized by republican Secretaries of State, but at the same time forgot to rig the Senate and house elections held same time. Joe Biden also rigged the courts that threw out all spurious allegations of election rigging. The whole world saw election fraud that only Trump and his sick followers saw The Governors of the states did not see it, the Secretaries of states did not see it, the republican state legislators did not see it and the courts did not see it. Trump supporters should be castrated so they don't reproduce stupidity. |
happney65:My opinion too. If Biden does not prosecute Trump and organisers( including complicit police officers)of the failed coup for treason and sedition, I will never forgive Biden and the Democrats |
basilico:Dems stole in republican organized elections and Trump and his stupid cult members have evidence only in their head. It's Trump that wanted to destroy the republic, but they failed. The coup was unsuccessful due to the resolve of American Citizens. If Trump had gone further with his coup, the 25th would have been instantly enacted. You guys are so dumb that you have no idea of what Trump or Trumpism means, and how it relates to you being a blackman. Look at the image below and figure out its symbolic meaning. Confederate flag on Capitol Hill.

Vice President Pence temporarily took over the duties of the President by summoning the National Guard. It's only the Commander In Chief that could summon the National Guard or Military. I am sure that if the situation had escalated, the military would have pledged allegiance to Pence instead of Trump. |
PrideofLincoln1:See the response to black lives matter protest near capitol hill
|
PrideofLincoln1:If they don't get these Trump cultist by nightfall, it will turn bloody. |
We are watching a coup in motion. Trump wants to overthrow the US Congress and government the remain in power. This must have been well planned and executed by Trump and his allies. When people protested during the George Flyod episode, Trump brought in the military. Where are the military or national guard now? |
Dapcity007:100% agreed. But then sex cannot always be responsible based on some extraneous or should I say uncontrollable circumstances. Examples such as; Rape. whereby the woman has no say in it Alcohol or drugs. where sex takes place under the influence of drugs. Hormonal changes. This afflicts mainly the very young whereby sex hormones flood the body changing or influencing physical, mental and behavioural patterns of the individual . This makes boys and girls between the ages of 16 to 21 extremely sexually active, and it required great guidance and understanding from parents, family and community for young girls and boys to escape the pitfalls of increased sex urges. Religious fundamentalists tend to hide their heads in the sand pretending that threatening young girls with fire and brimstones and even physical threats will make the problem go away. |
BraniacX:Don't mind them religious fundamentalists, maybe his passport reads "country of conception". Citizenship begins at conception indeed. |
Dapcity007:It's will not work, people are no longer falling for the cheap emotional blackmail your religious sect have been using for centuries to punish women (and the unwanted child) for what you call sexual sin. Common sense dictates that no one should be forced to birth a child she does not want. Common sense dictates that children deserve the love and care of both parents or at least one of the parent. I pray no one you know experience the trauma of parental rejection. |
basilico:You did not listen to the phone recorded conversation between Raffensperger and Trump, where the Secretary of State specifically said they cross checked the ballots and it was not scanned multiple times. So who should I believe, the person that conducted the elections and said he gave all parties the opportunity to present their allegations and then investigated them or Trump making allegations without evidence. Besides, why did Trump's lawyers no present the evidence in court? Only a court can reverse an already verified election result. I saw the video, it has already been posted here. |
Dapcity007:Either your taxpayers money fund abortion or your taxpayers money fund heath care and social services for unwanted babies and children. The latter is far more expensive than the former. It's against my moral and ethical values as a humanYour moral and ethical values. Not everyone shares your moral and ethical values. As a realist , you can never moralize and justify Infant genocide to meMoral values are personal or unique to your social or religious group. You have your choice, I won't be responsible for the result of the outcomeIt's more complex than that. Your taxpayers money can be used to treat someone who attempted suicide and got critically injured. |
Dapcity007:Why should I propagate abortion? I am a realist that. I accept the fact that unwanted pregnacies happen and abortion has been a fact of life from the beginning of time. It's not a leftist or rightist issue. I'm in a consexual relationship with a ladyGood hypocritical example. Now here is my take. First being in a sexual relationship always always present the possibility of pregnancy whether with pill or not, even condoms sometimes fails. So I want you to acknowledge that no pill is 100% efficient. Having said that, if your sexual partner decided on her own have a baby without your knowledge or consent (probably to baby trap you), then there is little you can do. But, the situation become very complex. If you are in Nigeria there is little consequences for you. The lady and her family would be left with the burden of raising the child. Even children that are born with the consent and even demand of the fathers are often abandoned without consequences, not to talk of unwanted ones. If you are in the US or UK, then the situation is different. Those societies are set up to protect children first, then women and we men are the least priority. Both parents are forced to be responsible for the upkeep of children whether you want it or not. Once your DNA is found on a baby, you are to pay (at leat half) for the upkeep of the child until 18 years. This means we men must make wiser division on where we stick our dicks. We must have discussions with our partners on what to do in case of unplanned pregnancy. My grouse with religious fundamentalists is that they have no business in what random couples do with their pregnacies. If they want to keep it, no one should force them to abort it, and if they don't want it no one should force them to birth it. I would like to see abortion laws that put time limit for the woman (or couples) to decide whether to birth or abort the pregnacy - maybe up to the first trimester. |
I have no seen any set of humans as obsessed with sex and related issues like pregnancy and abortion as Muslim fundamentalists (and christian fundamentalists also). All you think about it your waking hours and probably dreams also is pregnancy, abortion, fornication, nudity, immoral dressing, etc. It's always sex related. Dapcity007:Allowing a 14 year old daughter to birth a baby is gross irresponsibility by the parents (except the parents are rich enough to afford specialised medical care and are in a position to adopt the baby). Numerous immature teenage girls die or have VVF while attempting to give birth at such young age. It's her body , her choice, her parents have no say, Very maternal againSince at 14 a girl is still considered a minor, the parents should also have a say in whether to abort or keep the baby. Since they would be responsible for the medical expenses and also for the care of the baby once born. All menstrual women of at least 14 are permitted to abort in CAVery sane law. A girl at 14 should be in school and not be having babies. I know according to sharia, Boko is Haram, and girls should start producing babies immediately after her period starts. |
basilico:Then take your evidences to court and have a judge cancel the illegal votes. In the alternative have the justice department and the FBI investigate the criminal activities and prosecuted all those involved. Posting your so called evidence on social media achieve nothing. In a call why should the president with clear video evidence not demand the darn idiot do the right thing, that is allow forensic audit for one.A President should know that the darn idiot cannot do a darn thing about results already certified by the states legislature and governor, and already sent to the Congress. There is no law that allows desertification of results once certified. Trump just want the "Commie effect" (an announcement of investigations ) in order to persuade Republican Congress members not to ratify Biden as the winner of the elections. Trump gave the guy one chance to do the right thing. The idiot leaks to Bezos WAPO. That's a felony still, leaking confidential calls and the guy has been sued.So what does Trump want the Secretary of state to do? Recall the already certified and submitted results and then change them or create another result entirely and resubmit it to the state's legislature for certification once again (double certification)? False. Trump does not have the courage to sue the Secretary of state. According to the law, it's perfectly legal to record a phone conversation as long as the person recording is involved in the conversation. Do you have any determination that Joe Biden won in a clean and fair electionSleepy and bonker hiding Joe beat President Trump fair and square. This was confirmed by Bill Bar, The US cybersecurity director, all national and international observers, and even Trump lawyers, who never alleged fraud in court. Only Trump and his zombie cult members have been screaming fraud fraud fraud on social media. |
Iamgrey5:False. The recording could not have been made by Georgian republican secretary of state, if you listen to the recording it was done from Trump's end because Trump's voice was very loud, much louder that the Georgian secretary of state's voice. https://www.washingtonpost.com/video/politics/audio-trumps-full-jan-2-call-with-ga-secretary-of-state/2021/01/03/3f9426f4-7937-4718-8a8e-9d6052001991_video.html Someone from Trump's inner circle wants to Bleep him up |
Listen to the full phone conversation, it's even more shocking that the snippets we have heard https://www.washingtonpost.com/video/politics/audio-trumps-full-jan-2-call-with-ga-secretary-of-state/2021/01/03/3f9426f4-7937-4718-8a8e-9d6052001991_video.html |
Timiofak:How what he is attempting is not deemed a coup and therefore a crime is beyond me. This is very similar to June 12 1993 debacle in Nigeria. Someone won an election free and fair, but the incumbent on flimsy excuses upturned the elections in order to remain in power. The US democracy is very flawed and weak. |
feedthenation:It's not about Georgia's 20 electoral votes, the strategy is about convincing republican members of Congress to reject the certified results and accept alternative Electors on the 6th of January. If Georgia's secretary of state and governor had buckled to Trump's threats and agreed that Georgia's election was flawed, they would have used that admission to reject the Electors from Georgia, Pennsylvania, Arizona and Michigan on january 6the. Then chaos would have ensued in congress and probably in the whole country. He will then hold unto power illegally and pronounce the insurrection act to silence all opposition. |
jajeri3216:Believe me religion (not spirituality ) is a major problem. Religion promote the idea that I/we are the chosen and we are more special than everyone else. Religion segment the society according to closeness to God. Authority flows from those closest to God to those furthest from God. The leaders/priests of religion are put on the same pedestal as God itself and all acts no matter how absurd are accepted. Religion is about control, control of the adherents for whatever purpose the leaders/priests want. It could be for political or economic purposes. Spirituality on the other hand is about freedom, freedom to achieve unity, communicate or interact with God/universe/ consciousness. Spirituality does not divide the world into us against them. The major faiths are big on religion but small on spirituality. If you notice almost all the central figures of religion were never religious but highly spiritual. Something must be there has a placeholder, otherwise there'll be no direction( in the west, it's Christianity and critical thought)Using religion as a placeholder has had terrible consequences in the past and still continues to have terrible consequences today. Shouting Allahu Akbar before beheading innocent people is one example. As for Nigeria/blacks, the problems increasingly points toward fecklessness, inaptitude, to summarize, low iq/intelligence, and now a declining moral compass/ lack of guidance and direction.(anything goes).The problem is not necessarily low IQ/intelligence/declining moral compass, because in terms of IQ, intelligence and Moral compass, our society is better off today than before we came in contact with the Europeans. The problem is our changing value system that now promote class selfish materialism in the guise of prosperity. Now, we promote greed, selfishness, avarice, and not empathy, social development, hard work and contentment. Society needs a lot more people who are skilled in building a variety of things/have a guiding principle for keeping society going in the right direction, the more of this there is the better.Society need honest leadership who are ready to sacrifice for the general progress of all. The new type of arguments especially the literate ones put up is society should live as thou wilt, and guidance is irrelevant, they also compare their society with other societies who prioritize know how.eg the west doesn't care about nudity, why should we, but forgetting nudity isn't the engine behind western civilization.Nudity has very little to do with it. Most societies start out nude or with very minimal clothing. We Sub Saharan Africans did not start covering up until the beginning of the 20th century. Even at independence, most villages in Nigeria wore very little clothings. While I was schooling in sokoto in the late 80s, there was a village very close to my school where young girls were walking around topless. In all these, there were no reporting of rape or sexual deviancy. |
jajeri3216:You will be surprised i understand these issues far more than you do. I studied Architecture, I have studied the evolution of western civilization to some great extent. I studied comparative religions from my university days to have a grasp of Religious evolution of Westen civilization. I agree Nigeria is a failing state, it's not yet a failed state and I believe religion has contributed a lot to that failing status. If you look well most failed states (if not all) are religious fundamentalist states. Laws must exist to regulate the running and interactions within a society, but such laws must reflect the developmental aspirations of the people, and not laws simply made to control the minds, bodies and properties of the people. Religious laws are mainly a means of control of the masses of people and have little to do with developmental objectives. That's why most develop societies quickly separated the state from religion to achieve their developmental goals. |
Jaqenhghar:That's the way the world should run and promote peace. Everyone should be entitled to his or her opinion. We should be guided by civic laws and not doctrinal laws of a particular religion. |
CHoccolaTE:Don't mind them hypocrites. They see nothing with having sex with 13 year olds but they go insane at the thought of consenting adults having sex. That's how the originator of Sharia (Yarima) married and started having sex with a minor. She later died during child birth, and no outrage from the Muslim community. If a Muslim man marries 4 wives and decides to have sex orgies with all 4 at the same time, there would be no outrage. |
jajeri3216:Satanism might not be acceptable to you, the same way Ogboni might not be acceptable, but it's a religion with its own believers. Enjoy the maximum destruction that comes with it, just don't complain when society doesn't work and blame it on buhari.What do you mean maximum destruction? Is it destruction by your God or destruction orchestrated by you and your religious breathens? What brings buhari into this? Satanism, anarchism is fine as long as you don't whine about the outcomesSatanism is not anarchism. In fact the Christian and Islamic religion historically had created more anarchy than any other religion in world history. |
BastardWike:When I look at the pictures all I see are mostly women and no cows in sight. And you are telling us that these are the Fulani Herdsmen that has been terrorising the area. How are trucks able to enter deep into the forest to evacuate the mattresses and personal belongings of theses "Fulani herdsmen"? I had always thought that the hideouts of these herdsmen were inaccessible. I support a security outfit to confront the Fulani menace especially if ran by a constituted authority (governors of Local government chairmen), but a kanu led security outfit might use it for personal vendetta against ordinary fulanis and Northerners in general. |
jajeri3216:Did the Nigerian constitution ban people from being over sexualised Satanist? Does the freedom of religion in the Nigerian constitution not cover Satanism? Is satanism a crime in Nigeria? |
dustydee:Sex parties just like prostitution had been going on before Christianity and Islam and will be there till the last days of the earth. The Romans Festival of Baccus involved sex orgies. Even Saturnalia which later metamorphosized into the Christian Christmas involved wild sex parties and orgies. |
seunmsg:Who will pay her millions of naira? Millions of Kobo she will not get. In Nigeria going to court is easy, getting court judgement is fairly difficult but possible, the problem is enforcement of court judgements. Who will enforce court judgement against a state government or federal government? Even court judgements against powerful individuals is difficult if not impossible to enforce. Do you know how many billions of naira judgement compensations and damages against the Nigerian police that is yet to be settled? Do you know how many properties El Rufai demolished and seized illegally while he was minster of FCT? These governors knows that they can get away with anything and cannot be held accountable, and that's why they demolish any property they have their eyes on without any legal backing. If not that IPOB spew insults up and down and threaten everyone, I would have agreed with them that Nigeria is indeed a zoo. To me it's even worse than a zoo, because a zoo is orderly and the animals behave in an orderly manner. Nigeria can best be described as a jungle, where there are no rules and the law of survival of the fittest (strongest) rules. |
authority2006:Is your grouse with Covid restrictions or with the nude party itself? They did not ask anyone to walk the streets naked. It's like inviting people to a swimming pool party, you are not expected to wear your bikini from home. Now, what will you say if people gather together in a private living rooms lock the gate and all becomes naked or start having group sex. Do you support the police breaking their gate and knocking down the front door to arrest everyone involved. I quarrel with the open advertisement on social media though. |
