But you do not hold power in the Senate or White House or House of Rep.....and those people relish this.

Not at all. I am pointing out that this is politically advantageous for them. There is a small set of Republicans who want to dig in their heels on what appear, to my eyes, to be wrong-place-wrong-time issues to hold up the process. In general I tend to not have a big problem with it, there was a time when the lethargy of the system was lamented, back in the 90's, and it was foresaken with the more immediate gratification approaches under which we now suffer. So I prefer the lethargy. If you are a Democrat, you just sit back and throw stones, and enjoy how it impedes discovery around Biden as well.....they win every whuch way.

U.S. sues Amazon in a monopoly case that could be existential for the retail giant I wonder if this might impact how the Washington Post now reports on Biden.....

Then lets get Gaetz, I just know that guy is dirty...and then Pelosi.....and lets not stop....

Right. Hunter has provided them a wealth of information, and maybe.....just maybe....made enough mistakes to imperil the obvious criminal setup for the LLC's and such.....but lets not forget, the GBI had that laptop for a long time....and would absoluletly have attempted to protect Joe by eliminating some content.

No. I understand them without issue. I also understand people. I can also see. So those folks expoiting these people to entice them to migrate here are ensuring folks from whom they can extract money know it. Those folks know only too well that all of the liberal assessments of this nation (its racist, white supremacy etc) are absolute bull....and that being here, regardless of skin color or anything else, is the best thing for anyone.... so they come, and then know these cities are "sabnctuaries: and they will keep coming.....at least that moron gov in NY has seen the writing on the wall....

Absolutely not. Now, if they want to incentivize a migration toward "green" that does not break us.....fine by me

I do not think they can do anything, and nor will they. They win politically from this in many ways, so they are only to happy to just let it happen.

Make no mistake, Democrats warmly welcome a shutdown. It helps them in many ways. Does it hurt people? Sure, but so what Democrats don't care about people, they show this every.....single....day.....

As do I. But with the media and DOJ working to defend him, it is an uphill battle to be sure. Maybe they can fabricate a dossier and what not, that is now fair play.

We have the evidence, more to come of course, we should not expect, nor allow, Republicans to behave as Democrats did in fabricating impeachments. You can pretend this is all not happening, but it is, and the problem is the Republicans might start doing it as well. And if BOTH parties are weaponizing government to undermine each other.....we have lost..... so enjoy the temporary sense of satisfaction this might be providing, there is cost in the back end.

Declaring a locale as a "sanctuary" is used to entice those seeking to come here, by those exploiting them to get them here. Instead, they should do as Hochul is now doing and tell them to NOT come here. Then line the border with National Guard, finish the wall, create more and more barriers......fix the system of course, but stop the invasion....we are not ready for this invasion. No sanctuary, send them back unless they have completed the process....or let some other nation welcome them

It could....if China, India and others also followed suit....but they are not....so all it does it harm our financial position in the world. I think its possible to have an impact on climate, do I think we can (or have) has as much impact as the climate morons want us to think, of course not....

We currently have one with evidence of selling this nation for favors to our enemies, so on the scale, I will take the fruad/pervert guy.....who does not harm people but instead helps them

When stupid ideas meet reality.......

That's fine. And when the next Democrat President is presented with and abusive DOJ that charges solely for political outcomes, you will be less happy. And we can temprorarily share condemnation, since the political situation will magically align with your "morality". So then its all good. Let's get some conservatives into the DOJ and start charging the sh!t out of Democrats, amirite? Woo Hooo..... welcome to the Banana Republicna everyone....

Right..... I am sure you do.

Perhaps. We know that when we point out how groups committ crimes or are incercerated or struggle in school and make a statement of fact that this is often portrayed as racist, apparently some truths are not suitable. If this inhibited political power pursuits, then I am all for it.

You may be right. I think the notion that black people will only vote Democrat feels a little racist, but maybe you have a point. So be it. It is a good thing when the powerful are impeded. It's all I have ever asked for.

Correct. And just as important, you dillute the two-systems of jusstice concern, you sacrafice the guy you dislike to fend off a problem elsewhere.

Oh I see, you have established guilt. And are happy to allow the abuse of the legal system. I presume when the Republicans do this back to a candidate you prefer that you will of course, object..... when that happens, and we should assume it will since Democrats have opened this box, come find me, so we can object together, since it will still be wrong then, as it is now. Now if you want to hate Trump, have at it, but sacraficing our core values to take him down out of spite, just opens that up to be done back to you. All I am saying is that maybe, just maybe, its an approach with consequences later you might not like. Case in point, Republicans loading up SCOTUS because Reid eliminated the filibuster because he just wanted what he wanted at that moment, with no regard to the future....

Almost. The media will serve Democrats by dramatizing anything Trump, while the DOJ moved enthusiastically to help. While actively ignoring anything Biden. But I think there is something that negates any of this.... I think the dimished quality of life and obvious issues with crime and the border are negating all of the political gamesmanship to undermine the candidates.

You cannot project the way liberals think on to others, that is not really going to work. When SCOTUS judges rule in a way that feeds your bias you might think "wow, they actually did the right thing"....but in reality they usually do the right thing, and sometimes the right thing does not fit into your world view.

I concede this point. Trump is not a politician, and frankly as a businessman in that role he just missteps every where. And of course the media hate him as an older white male, so they pounce. Conversely, you look at Biden and his impressive criminal enterprise alone and you can appreciate his political chops. A true politician knows that lying is life, and those with longer tenures are the most gifted of liars. If Trump would just learn to lie he could get out of his own way. I think the voters were weary of it last time around. That is why we have the overcharging, the hope being if they can create enough drama around Trump they avoid him being elected again. I think the Dems are desperate. Trump likely now understands all they have been up to, and how to flush them out, and him entering the White House risks exposing all of them and their Menendez=ish antics.......they will do anything, no matter how criminal, to avoid him exposing them. And I think he will do it, out of vengeance. It is likely true that he restores the policies that helped so many average americans, and does make headway to repair the damage to the economy, but in parallel, I am concerned about his inclination toward vengeance....even though he deserves to get some....

his is what liberals /neoliberals have never understood – or taken responsibility for – that they have played a major part in creating the precise conditions for fascism to flourish – Obama corporatist democrats – are to the right of Richard Nixon on domestic policy.” Interesting.....Cusak is something of a liberal doosh, but is spitting some truth.....
