“Although this is a long shot, it is good to see at least one state stand tall and refuse to allow a former PotUS who so blatantly and destructively...”
The Colorado Supreme Court just ruled 4-3 that Trump is excluded from running for office under the 14th amendment, Section three (disqualification clause): Section 3 Disqualification from Holding Office No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and...
Asa Hutchinson Speaks the Truth to a crowd of MAGA supporters at the Florida GOP's Freedom Summit
Via: TᵢG • Critical Thinkers • 42 Comments • 10 Likes • 3 years ago
“As someone who’s been in the courtroom for over 25 years, as a federal prosecutor, and also in defending some of the most serious federal criminal...”
This certainly illustrates the problem with the GOP today. Asa's speech was well received until he mentioned Trump. Then he was booed and ignored as he attempted to reason with the unreasonable. The crowd would not listen, would not hear, would not even consider the advice Hutchinson tried...
Romney says any Democrat would be ‘an upgrade’ over Trump in 2024

“I’d be happy to support virtually any one of the Republicans — maybe not Vivek [Ramaswamy] — but the others that are running would be acceptable to...”
Just amazing watching how the GOP has degraded from a successful, grounded, statesman with character like Romney to Trump.
Inspired by Japan

“One of the most memorable sites was the Golden Pavilion (Kinkaku-ji) in Kyoto. The building itself is impressive (a Zen temple covered in Gold...”
In late July we enjoyed a two week vacation in Japan. We have the fortune to have, as a close friend, an individual who grew up in Japan (and routinely returns to visit). She invited us to allow her to show us her homeland. How could we refuse? If you travel to Japan and cannot speak the...
Trump calls Michael Cohen ‘a proven liar’ at $250 million civil fraud trial
Via: TᵢG • News & Politics • 24 Comments • 7 Likes • 3 years ago
“Well he is a proven liar as you know. He is a felon. He served a lot of time for lying ...”
This will be the new prime example of the pot calling the kettle black. Just amazing that this guy can utter these words. More amazing that there are some who believe him.
Cenk & Ana DESTROY Vivek Ramaswamy's Defense Of Donald Trump

“You are better than the best President of the 21st century and that the main reason why you're better than Donald Trump is because you're younger...”
A very clear illustration of Vivek's snake oil. One of several examples. Vivek states (in defense of Trump) that the PRA determines what documents the former PotUS can take. That is true. However, the PRA definitively states that Trump was not allowed to take the documents he took....
U.S. scientist Robert Sapolsky says humans have no free will

“You may think you chose to read this, but Stanford scientist Robert Sapolsky would disagree. He says virtually all human behavior is beyond our...”
One of my favorite authors. Sapolsky wrote the classic book Behave which illustrates how human behavior is highly dependent upon all sorts of factors from one's current biochemical state (e.g. are we hungry) all the way back to inherited genes. He has always held that free will (as most people...
Trump's claim of immunity from prosecution defies American history, special counsel argues
Via: TᵢG • News & Politics • 3 Comments • 2 Likes • 3 years ago
“Federal prosecutors shot back at Donald Trump's bid to have his criminal charges thrown out.”
Trump is trying to claim that he is immune from prosecution because he was PotUS at the time and his Big Lie con-job was part of the official duties of his office.
Sidney Powell pleads guilty in deal with prosecutors over efforts to overturn Trump loss in Georgia
Via: TᵢG • News & Politics • 61 Comments • 15 Likes • 3 years ago
“Lawyer Sidney Powell pleads guilty as part of a deal with prosecutors over efforts to overturn former President Donald Trump's loss in Georgia.”
It still amazes me that attorneys such as Powell and Giuliani would put their careers and livelihoods on the line to push blatant lies for Trump as part of a ill-conceived scheme to steal a US presidential election. Her serving as a witness for the prosecution should be interesting. Not a...
