How many of this board's crowd of fellow MAGA Republicans will applaud this sentiment?
How many will condemn it?
How many will tap dance and avoid either of those options?
How many will just not weigh in on this thread to avoid stepping on their dicks?

No one owes any of your assclownery an answer, you simp.
I can certainly tell you that I am no fan of democracy, given it has brought us to biden and his bathroom wars. You, being a fruitcake and an oath breaker, are unbothered by these infamies.

You ain't getting a dime of it anyway Rico... and the State of NY will most likely end up losing money at the end of the day after the SCOTUS rules the fine unconstitutional based on the 8th Amendment, and Trump countersues for the violation of his civil rights.
You do know that every time y'all stupid leftists try to railroad this guy, his base of support grows right?
What are you gonna do when he's polling at 70% heading into the general election, and y'all have to arrest him or assassinate him to keep him out of the WH?
How do you think that's gonna play out?

This sums up the Trump verdict and Letitia James:
Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime
Lavrentiy Beria, the most ruthless and longest-serving secret police chief in Joseph Stalin’s reign of terror in Russia and Eastern Europe, bragged that he could prove criminal conduct on anyone, even the innocent.
“Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime” was Beria’s infamous boast. He served as deputy premier from 1941 until Stalin’s death in 1953, supervising the expansion of the gulags and other secret detention facilities for political prisoners. He became part of a post-Stalin, short-lived ruling troika until he was executed for treason after Nikita Khrushchev’s coup d’etat in 1953. Beria targeted “the man” first, then proceeded to find or fabricate a crime. Beria’s modus operandi was to presume the man guilty, and fill in the blanks later. By contrast, under the United States Constitution, there’s a presumption of innocence that emanates from the 5th, 6th, and 14th Amendments, as set forth in Coffin vs. U.S. (1895).

Let's see. No victim, no one has ever been held accountable under this statute, according to the banks they did go over his assets and adjusted the terms of loans accordingly, and every one involved made lots of money.
Now the camera mugging judge won't allow 30 days. What a **** idiot.
Imagine what they can do to us "normal" people.

I probably have more [i]genuine[/i] sympathy for Israel than you do, because I have the personal integrity to acknowledge what they're up to.

IT MEANS MOVING AN ETHNIC GROUP OFF OF THE LAND THEY POSSESS SO THAT ANOTHER ETHNIC GROUP CAN TAKE THAT LAND. That is precisely what Israel is doing, in broad daylight. And no one except koolaid drinking neocons doesn't acknowledge it.
WE did that. Here. And we used settlers, in violation of our own laws and treaties, and then the army backed up the settlers. We drove off and murdered off the injuns so that OUR progeny and not theirs could inhabit this land. We put them on tiny reservations the size of Gaza and West Bank and pretended they were "self-governing," I do not tisk, I do not wag a finger. I respect the men who did that. And I respect what the israelis are doing. They just picked the wrong **** century, and it's biting them in the ***.
You think I'm a big pali symp. I consider them ill-bred, inbred, badly bred ****. I sure as **** don't want to live next door to them. I have ten times the respect for jews that I have for palis. You just don't get it. The Israelis are going to have to stop impeding a palestinian state, if it harelips the governor, son. And yes, that is what the rest of the world (except you in-the-tank neocons) knows they are doing. They are in the wrong place at the wrong time to pull off ethnic cleansing. They've been at it for far too long. They now have ONE (1) friend in the world - and that friend is led by a man in a diaper and is consumed with an internal struggle over bathrooms. They have as much chance of prospering long-term from our friendship as the south vietnamese did.
I strongly suspect that your position is not political at all, but religious. [/b]

You still have this psychological need to pathologize my world view as if it is insane lol...but there is nothing irrational about saying jews control the usa...just like nothing is irrational about saying the English controlled the British empire or the soviets controlled east germany lol...

Everyone who matters knows for a fact that the United States cannot fight a war against a real economy. They can pick on little developing countries - that's it.
In 1990 The Neocon's and Neoliberal's did not expect their NWO to fail and that in 2024 they would control the entire planet as well as it's weapons manufacturing .....which would lead to unending high profit for the MIC.....and revenue for America.
They were so sure that their unipolar vision of global American hegemony could never fail .....and then it did.....because the pursuit of absolute power always corrupts absolutely and it did ....
To think what we could have accomplished if Power and Profit for a few wouldn't have been the sole motivation and if we would have lived up to being The world's beacon for Freedom and Democracy instead of soiling it with unimaginable two-faced corruption on the world's stage.....where we could have been today .....
It sickens me to think that every administration since 1990 with the exception of Trump's keeps continually corrupting the world with itheir

House Oversight Committee chairman Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) said Wednesday that he may refer members of the January 6 Committee to the Department of Justice for criminal prosecution for hiding and destroying documents.Loudermilk has been investigating the work of the January 6 Committee, and discovered last year that the Committee had destroyed documents and other records, despite being warned by then-incoming Speaker of the House Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) to preserve all of the evidence it had collected in months of investigations and closed-door testimony.He told John Solomon of JusttheNews.com that it was possible members of the committee could face prosecution:

Loudermilk said that censure or ethical sanctions could also be applied instead of prosecution, given the immunity that members of Congress often enjoy regarding their work due to the separation of powers under the U.S. Constitution.The House Republican leading the current review of security and intelligence failures during the 2021 Capitol riot put former lawmakers and staff on the now-defunct Democrat-run Jan. 6 committee on notice Wednesday that he may make referrals for criminal obstruction or House ethics violations.Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga,, the chairman of the House Administration Oversight Subcommittee, told Just the News he is frustrated that videotapes of interviews, transcripts and other evidence that Congress gathered under the prior Jan. 6 inquiry run by Democrats was deleted, destroyed, moved to other federal agencies or locked behind passwords that have not been recovered, and he believes some form of accountability is warranted.“As far as holding people accountable, yes, they should be,” Loudermilk said during an interview with Just the News, No Noise television show. “But I think that’s going to be a little ways down the road, because there is so much more information that we need to get. And we need to build not only this, to get the truth out to the American people, but see just how big this case potentially is for obstructing.”

Exactly correct. The fact that the legislature had to act is an indictment of the judicial branch. The standard is CRYSTAL clear: the mere APPEARANCE of impropriety is sufficient - impropriety need not be conclusively proved. The judge's pretense that there were not OBVIOUS emoluments - that the evidence did not sustain the charge on its face - in no way justifies leaving her on the case. The mere APPEARANCE of impropriety should have landed her in front of the corrupt Georgia Bar - but the corrupt Georgia Judge refused to do his job. He applied a RELAXED STANDARD n the case of a black woman, because he is a racist piece of ****.Majik » 15 Mar 2024, 6:10 pm » wrote: ↑ Georgia Gov.

Putin Wins Transparent Russian Reelection, Biden Calls it a Dictatorship – Zelensky Cancels Ukraine Elections, Biden Calls it a Democracy
March 18, 2024 | Sundance |
It really is a transparently obvious contrast that highlights how far the west has fallen. Russia holds transparent elections and Vladimir Putin wins 87% of the vote, resoundingly being reelected; yet Biden calls it a dictatorship. Meanwhile Ukraine cancels all elections, Zelensky declares the political opposition party unlawful; yet Biden calls it a democracy.
The totalitarian areas and liberty areas are ideologically inverting as a direct outcome of western governments deliberately cleaving the globe. What they call “globalism” is actually a fracturing of the international compact. This reality is now transparent and obvious to the ordinary person, and the Ukraine vs Russia example stands as direct evidence of just how abusive the Western government gaslighting has become.
(Via Reuters) – President Vladimir Putin won a record post-Soviet landslide in Russia’s election on Sunday, cementing his already tight grip on power in a victory he said showed Moscow had been right to stand up to the West and send its troops into Ukraine.
[…] The outcome means Putin, 71, is set to embark on a new six-year term that will see him overtake Josef Stalin and become Russia’s longest-serving leader for more than 200 years if he completes it.
Putin won 87.8% of the vote, the highest ever result in Russia’s post-Soviet history, according to an exit poll by pollster the Public Opinion Foundation (FOM). The Russian Public Opinion Research Centre (VCIOM) put Putin on 87%. First official results indicated the polls were accurate.
The United States, Germany, the United Kingdom and other nations have said the vote was neither free nor fair due to the imprisonment of political opponents and censorship.
Communist candidate Nikolai Kharitonov finished second with just under 4%, newcomer Vladislav Davankov third, and ultra-nationalist Leonid Slutsky fourth.
Putin told supporters in a victory speech in Moscow that he would prioritize resolving tasks associated with what he called Russia’s “special military operation” in Ukraine and would strengthen the Russian military.
“We have many tasks ahead. But when we are consolidated – no matter who wants to intimidate us, suppress us – nobody has ever succeeded in history, they have not succeeded now, and they will not succeed ever in the future,” said Putin. (read more)

Pro-Trump Michigan attorney arrested after hearing in DC over leaking Dominion documents
By arresting those that had evidence of vote fraud!!!
BY NICHOLAS RICCARDI AND JOEY CAPPELLETTI
March 18, 2024An attorney facing criminal charges for illegally accessing Michigan voting machines after the 2020 election was arrested Monday after a hearing in a separate case in federal court in Washington, D.C.
Stefanie Lambert was arrested by U.S. Marshals after a hearing over possible sanctions against her for disseminating confidential emails from Dominion Voting Systems, the target of conspiracy theories over former President Donald Trump’s 2020 election loss. Lambert obtained the Dominion emails by representing Patrick Byrne, a prominent funder of election conspiracy theorists who is being sued by Dominion for defamation.

By arresting those that had evidence of vote fraud!!!
BY NICHOLAS RICCARDI AND JOEY CAPPELLETTI
March 18, 2024An attorney facing criminal charges for illegally accessing Michigan voting machines after the 2020 election was arrested Monday after a hearing in a separate case in federal court in Washington, D.C.
Stefanie Lambert was arrested by U.S. Marshals after a hearing over possible sanctions against her for disseminating confidential emails from Dominion Voting Systems, the target of conspiracy theories over former President Donald Trump’s 2020 election loss. Lambert obtained the Dominion emails by representing Patrick Byrne, a prominent funder of election conspiracy theorists who is being sued by Dominion for defamation.

“Pure” free enterprise will eventually be corrupted. Just like everything in life - “everything turns to **** eventually.”DeezerShoove » 02 Apr 2024, 10:08 pm » wrote: ↑ There have been a few things here at NHB and some other places that made me curious enough to rethink and educate myself a little better.
For example: racism, Jews and holocaust, patriotism.
So, with all the seriousness a layman can muster, I have a question.
What is a fundamental difference you found to chew on?
Also, strong objections to Hamilton's move to create a US Bank adds to skepticism.
I have always heard the world has never seen "pure" communism or "pure" socialism or "pure" capitalism.
What would protect it so that "pure" free enterprise could finally exist?
Seems like mankind would **** that one up too.
As always, I welcome your views.
As for the delineation / fundamental difference, I have never seen CP define it precisely, which is not his fault because there are thousands of possible points of contention.
It’s like that adage: “I know it when I see it.”
When an investor with < 5M NW buys a small property and rents it out, it’s “FE”
When (((BlackRock))) buys up hundreds of thousands of properties using Fed funny money, it’s “capitalism”
The people who started Toys ‘R Us are “FE”ers
The private equity group that raided and then looted Toys ‘R Us and declared bankruptcy are “capitalists” (PE might be the best example of “capitalism”)
Anyway, I think it can be summarized per…”Free enterprise is something I like, and capitalism is something I don’t like”…

One is that free enterprise can never be extinguished. Even outlawed, it continues sub rosa. Another is free enterprise naturally arises where 2 or more gather, as it's a function of being human: I'll mow your lawn for 20 bucks.
CAPITALISM can easily be outlawed. It cannot exist without government, as it relies for investment capital on government creating and policing trading boards. It is government that gives capitalism its existence and nurtures it through the tax code. Retirement investments are tax deferred if you invest in wall street - but it takes after-tax dollars to invest in free enterprise.

Free enterprise exists universally and always will, where 2 or more gather. Selling a massage is free enterprise. Providing tree service is. Capitalism uses government to get favorable access to credit and to create barriers to markets, using public safety and other excuses as their shield.
No UL stamp, no ability to sell your solar panels. The government [i]requires[/i] that stamp but does not provide it, forcing you to spend a fortune with a favored capitalist concern - which is illegal but universal. It costs 200 bucks in material to construct a solar panel and a day to put it together. But a guy who can afford the parts to build solar panels will have to get past the gate keepers - and it can be very expensive for those not in favor.
In the states that legalize weed, ANY CITIZEN has the right to grow and sell marijuana. Just have a place to grow it, and get a license - which means filing a million dollar bond, and proving the ability to do it [u]at scale from day one[/u]. The entire system is built to protect capital and to bar entry to the market.
This aim of creating bars to the market is taken to extremes - like forcing a new restaurant that is delivery-only to have a handicapped restroom, even though no one who needs such could possibly work in such a restaurant. Barring entry is a full time job for many government departments.
There's also an absolute rule that the working class must be barred from rising by being pennied and nickeled to death. This is seen especially in excise taxes. Pipe tobacco is hardly taxed at all, whereas cigarette tobacco is subjected to onerous federal, state and local taxes. The excise tax paid on a high dollar bottle of liquor is the same as that paid on a can of beer. At every level, the code is geared to hit the working man and bypass the wealthy..
Governments and capitalists work hand in glove to put the burdens of government on those it least serves and to create bars against their betterment. Those who receive the greatest favors and services from government contribute the least to its operations - while the rentiers control appearances through think-tanks that generate and promulgate 24/7 propaganda narratives.
An example is the widely touted claim that the top 10% pay the most in taxes. The federal income tax is only one of HUNDREDS of taxes put on consumers. "Federal taxes" excludes the 14% taken OFF THE TOP for SS before workers even start to pay "federal taxes." The capitalist class is rarely even AMONG that top 10%, as their monies are adjusted to zero through made-to-order loopholes. The disproportionate share lands on the professional class - NOT the capitalist class.
Capitalism has turned the US into a country where the working man is under-served, over-taxed, and barred from rising unless he is an absolutely driven, inexhaustible, extremely lucky, and perspicacious fellow. And it has highly-contributing professionals, who studied and prepared and sacrificed, struggling to maintain a middle class lifestyle unless both partners work.

I know you progressives can't stand reading anything that conflicts with your narrow view of the world, so I'll break it down for you:
[list]
[*]Bidenomics reflects the metrics used, but it doesn't reflect the hardships of most Americans. Most Americans don't see nor are they experiencing a great economy in their lives.
[*]The corporations are seeing and experiencing it. The CEOs and other corporate powers are seeing and experiencing it. They get to eat the fruit. The people are cleaning up the peels and rotten cores.
[/list]
Ok? Now shut up.

That means listening closely to people’s experiences. If they’re afraid they can’t pay their bills, we need to help them make sense of that lived reality. That starts by taking that lived reality seriously, not just telling people things are fine.When we listen to people, it becomes clear that aggregate statistics no longer reflect the reality most people live in. Unemployment may be low, but if you can only find work at low wages and irregular hours, things aren’t fine. Inflation may be dropping, but if your paycheck no longer covers your rent (the way we measure inflation doesn’t adequately capture housing costs), things aren’t fine. If you’re two percent better off than last year, but you were on the edge of disaster last year, things aren’t fine.Second, extreme inequality and massive corporate power have led to a crisis. In times of rupture, when old systems are dying out or becoming unstable, we can’t rely on business as usual. We cannot rely on policymaking as the sole or even the main lever for change. For instance, raising minimum wages has helped a lot of people with their monthly bills–but without a union, employers can still cut your work hours, discipline you, or fire you unfairly. The Child Tax Credit had a huge impact on reducing child poverty–but as many low-income parents suspected, it was only a matter of time before it was taken away. Corporations have more power today than they’ve had for over 100 years–or perhaps ever, given the amount of wealth and resources they control. The rules of the game are still skewed in their favor. They’ve raised the prices of our basic goods because they can. They’ve limited our housing supply because they can. They’ve refused to comply with basic employment laws because they don’t have to.
