American Politics

[MarquisdeSade1]

Great, you agree with M. Dorstewitz's opinion.

I read the article and listened to the robot summation, and it has nothing to do with what I wrote about science. I'll entertain your tangent, if you listen to article in podcast version on top of the page, its premise is that the top officials from the top down stopped working for the American people.

1. Who are these "top officials"? I love vagueness to keep listener / reader guessing and playing on mythical thinking.

2. "They are lining their own pockets, why are we still employing them, and why are they not in prison?" Actual investigators would look at "targets" financials if there are credible leads. This is simple if there is a paper / digital trail. Then, the investigator would have to get evidence to a prosecutor who would then charge the target, who then becomes a defendant. Presumed innocent with the burden on the prosecutor to prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, that the defendant is guilty to a jury of his / her peers. That's how it works. Lobbing accusations is entertaining, but not reality based analysis of things.

Here's a thing about all this, I really don't care who goes to jail if they've committed crimes. If someone is found guilty in a court of law, then that should be straight forward as to the kind of person he / she is. Are their wrongly convicted people, sure 1% of convictions of white are overturned, while 4-6% of black are overturned. And before you try to play the racism card. I put those figures because I want to illustrate that 99% of white criminals who are convicted are correctly convicted. So if Fauci, being white, committed provable crimes, then the conviction would be deserved.

See the mug shots in Trump's Georgia case: Meadows, Giuliani, Powell, Ellis, Chesebro and others.
As Trump and his allies report to the Fulton County Jail for booking in the 2020 election case, the sheriff's office has been releasing mug shots after they surrender. Here is a collection.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...der-rcna101670

If only the world had seen well-earned Mug Shots of Agnew, Nixon, Reagan, Bush2 and Cheney, perhaps your Lord and Savior would not have felt his failing Trump Brand infomercial run as a Repub candidate that blundered into a rigged Electoral College appointment of him as so-called potus meant that, as a Repub, he would get a free pass on whatever crimes he wanted to commit, including the ones that forced the DOJ to indict him and a few of his Repub Crime Enterprise members that led to that historic collection of Mug Shots.

Wow, Ellis and Kutty surely look like they're having fun. Hey, we're a big league now, we're booked together with Trump, yay!

What I don't understand is how is it they're booked and immediately released? Isn't a judge supposed to decide on bail during arraignment (after spending some quality time in jail)?

Trump arrived at the jail shortly after 7:30 p.m. ET in a presidential-style motorcade and was booked, fingerprinted and photographed for a mug shot within minutes, according to jail records. Trump was quickly released, according to the records. He was in and out of the jail in about 20 minutes.

Travesty of justice indeed!

[MarquisdeSade1]

I get that 20% of Dems are affectionate toward a "Kennedy". But where is the poll showing 20% of Dems agree with the looney conspiracies he promotes? Those would be the gullible sucker numbskulls alluded to in those links and accurately characterized as such by me.

The typically pro Repub Main Stream Media has been late to call out RFK Jr on his loonyness because I am sure they would love any factor that might pull just enough votes away from Biden to help their beloved Repub candidate win. When Biden officially secures the nomination, look for MSM to revive their forgiveness of RFK Jr's lunacy and tout him as a write-in candidate.

That way, the same deadbeats in Red States, the same mindsets in the same regions of the country who presumably would still be delighted to live their deadbeat lives of financial success as long as free slave labor applied all of the blood, sweat and tears to make it so for them, can continue their deadbeat Supply-Side / Trickle-Down tax policies combined with no regard for regulations that puts the vast majority of USA wealth in the pockets of a few inherited capital deadbeat masters while everyone else does most of the work.

I predict Joe and Hunter will be sharing a prison cell long before Our Lord and Savior ever sets foot in one.

I did a simple Google Search on "RFK Jr is a conspiracy theory crackpot" honestly expecting to find just 2-3 results from a few ultra Dem or pro Biden sources.

Man, was I wrong about that. LOL. The BBC, NYT, Forbes, etc, etc, etc are chock full of lists of ridiculous conspiracy theories that loon claims. No wonder the typical sucker for his idiotic assertions is a Biden-hating Repub:

MDS took the first part. I will do the second. RFK is at 20% in the polls of DEMOCRATS.

https://freebeacon.com/elections/its...against-biden/

That 20% sounds about right, that is about what % of Democrats have real jobs, so it is not just Republicans. RFK is anti deep state, anti Fauci, anti vax, and pro health. He is also the kind of person, an environmental trial lawyer, that Republicans would be loath to have supported in the past.

Of course, you do a google search and find out he is a nut. He is getting the lame stream media's Ron Paul nut job treatment. But if you actually listen to what he has to say, he makes a lot of good points.

Lastly, I listened to a futurist talk about developing drugs for certain individuals. Once you get drugs that work for one class of people going to toxins and viruses that affect other classes is not that hard. So China is working on drugs that work on just the Chinese and bioweapons that spare the Chinese and kill everyone else? Oh, that is racist! IMO you are nave if you do not believe China is doing exactly that. In fact, I think you would be naive if you thought everyone was not doing something along those lines. It is the future.

I did not argue anything. You said something that any prosecutor can do 999 times out of 1000 requires skill.

And by raving lunatics, you mean people who disagree with you?

Of course not. By raving lunatics, I mean:

A) people who disagree with facts and common sense;.

B) people who're willing to storm a nation parliament because a lying scumbag clinging to power told them to.

You mean people who actually think the FBI, CIA, Congress and district attorneys should not be picking our president but we the people should?

Oh Elvis, but "we the people" did.

You mean "lunatics" who think charging someone's main political opponent criminally right before an election is banana republic type stuff?

You mean like Trump pressuring Zelensky to dig dirt on Biden? Yeah, it can be.

But it's not if the former president has committed real crimes. Which he did.

And just like you lied and said Trump's prosecutors are skilled. Now you assign these prosecutors pure motivations. How do you know what their true motivations are?

My dear Elvis, If you're the head of the Justice Department, would you assign an unskilled lawyer to prosecute a former president who has unlimited funding and an army of the best lawyers money can buy?

And you think that is why prosecutors did not go after Hiliary? LOL. We even had Dems here say that she was guilty. You mean to tell me she did not break the law? And Biden, who kept top secret papers in his garage, would not be convicted of breaking the law? LOL. Really? That is the best you can do?

Yes Elvis, why didn't Trump's prosecutors go after Hillary? You mean to tell me they weren't tough on crime?

Trump's interview with Tucker Carlson is up to 200 million views. Maybe consider that at least half of all Americans are not lunatics

I'm sure that more than half of Americans aren't lunatics. 200 million views only indicate the high entertaining value of both scumbags. Isn't it why you fellows appreciate them so much?

[Elvis 2008]

Wow Elvis, my compliments! You have presented a viable argument for a change.

I will argue, however, that Trump is very different from a ham sandwich. His prosecutors are well aware that Trump has virtually unlimited defense funding (due to extreme and unprecedented gullibility of his disciples), the best lawyers money can buy and the uncanny ability to turn seemingly normal people into raving lunatics.

They wouldn't have indicted if they hadn't been confident they'd be able to win conviction.

I have said a million times, and I will repeat it again, that I do not hold ill will for someone who votes Democrat because the Democratic positions are in their own best interests. I totally get that. What I do not get are people like you and Tooms who suck down the NYT and MSNBC like the people of Jonestown sucked down the Kool Aid that killed them.

When the New York Post agrees with Forbes, the BBC, The Boston Globe, etc, etc, etc that someone is a loony crackpot too dangerous, loony and ill-informed to be believed by even the most gullible numbskulls, you can probably take it to the bank he is nothing more or less than the loony crackpot the rest of the world recognized to be the case almost immediately.

I don't think most of the others are all that smart but I listened to his radio show for many years.

Hes a very smart guy, unlike Bidens junkie son.

According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, USA Attorneys prosecuted 162,000 federal cases in 2010, the most recent year for which there is data. Grand juries declined to return an indictment in 11 of them.

https://skeptics.stackexchange.com/q...-juries-indict

Sol Wachtler, once said that grand juries were so pliable that a prosecutor could get a grand jury to "indict a ham sandwich. ".

And William J. Campbell, a former federal district judge in Chicago, noted: "Today, the grand jury is the total captive of the prosecutor who, if he is candid, will concede that he can indict anybody, at any time, for almost anything, before any grand jury. ".

Wow Elvis, my compliments! You have presented a viable argument for a change.

I will argue, however, that Trump is very different from a ham sandwich. His prosecutors are well aware that Trump has virtually unlimited defense funding (due to extreme and unprecedented gullibility of his disciples), the best lawyers money can buy and the uncanny ability to turn seemingly normal people into raving lunatics. They wouldn't have indicted if they hadn't been confident they'd be able to win conviction.

Although, to be fair, it's not like they didn't have help. See, Trump has provided a lot of assistance to the prosecutors by simply running his mouth. Even the guiltiest ham sandwiches in the world would be so cooperative.

How does this guy still have a platform?

[MarquisdeSade1]

You are correct that trusting experts is not a function of science. However, you are incorrect, it is NOT the opposite of science. It's neither. One should choose to trust experts, since they are practicing science, but know that some data in science can change over time. When it does, the experts, if real practicioner of science, should change their thesis to reflect new data.

Unfortunately, not all of us are experts at EVERY subject, so we rely on ones who are. I go to the doctor because he / she gives me the best chance to fight an illness. I can go to you tube and my probability goes down. I can't ask a doctor about repair my car, mechanics are better at it. This is because they have more knowledge and experience in that particular field than we do, so we often put their opinion ahead of our. Could they be wrong? Yes, they can be wrong, but they're usually correct more often than not.

I like taking concensus of science matter, because not all scientists agree on any given subject matter. But a majority agreement of it is a better way to determine what is correct conclusion. Does that mean that 20,30,50,100 years from now it will still be correct? NO, ie the world is not flat as thought hundreds of years ago. Difference is we have better technology to measure things with now vs. 500 years ago. So science today is more precise than before, not perfect, just more precise.

Fun fact, science main battle ground is peer review. A scientist can write any thesis they want, but if it can not be duplicated, it is garbage science.
