I've heard Rudy is dodging giving testimony under oath because he'll have to reveal what Trump told him was the real reason he encited and led that violent January 6, 2021 attack on America.

Yep, it was because Trump "smelled weakness" on the President of the United States at the time.

Same as always with these things.

Rudy no-showed on Friday, two weeks ago.

But this Friday (today) Rudy gave testimony for over 9 hours.

I am sure Rudy will well protect his client that refuses to pay him.

USA —The results of a CNN poll revealed that 52% of Americans are in favor of abolishing the nation's Democratic Republic in favor of a monarchy ruled by an Ultra MAGA King. Another 39%—mostly bureaucrats—are reportedly satisfied with the current system of government. The poll findings, released Thursday, have alarmed both Democrats and Republicans in government who are reportedly "shook" that citizens don't appreciate them.

"I don't know why anyone would trade in an oppressive and corrupt totalitarian government for a monarchy ruled by divine right," said Rep Adam Schiff. "Frankly, I'm shocked people don't appreciate how much we lie to them about everything for their own good while raising their taxes and sending it to Ukraine. ".

"We do it because we care!

Former presidential candidate Jeb Bush emerged from obscurity to call MAGA King Trump a "jerk" who has set a dangerous precedent of not betraying the people who voted for him.

"Please clap," he then added.

According to Trump, it doesn't matter what anyone thinks because he is already king. "I've been imbued with huge power from on high. Just tremendous power," he said. "Power that Sleepy Joe could only dream of—and, believe me, he does a lot because he's always sleepy."

Trump then spent an hour making fun of how old and dumb President Biden is, which effectively distracted him from assuming authority and doing anything. Experts claim this is what makes Trump so likable.

"Our MAGA King is so focused on making fun of people that he doesn't have time left over to actually do anything, which is perfect because that's when leaders mess things up," said average citizen Joe Pleasant of Vermont.

"he's going to do great things for this kingdom by leaving us all alone. . ."

You noticed, I said "at least" 11, LOL.

Here are the ones I'm not sure I can ascribe to our favorite dipshit:

1. The cult of tradition. "One has only to look at the syllabus of every fascist movement to find the major traditionalist thinkers. The Nazi gnosis was nourished by traditionalist, syncretistic, occult elements. ".

9. Pacifism is trafficking with the enemy. "For your-Fascism there is no struggle for life but, rather, life is lived for struggle. ".

11. Everybody is educated to become a hero. "In your-Fascist ideology, heroism is the norm. This cult of heroism is strictly linked with the cult of death. ".

Thanks for sending me the three.

If one "expands" the thought process a little, one gets the following:

1. Cult of tradition: Republicans, traditionally (at least for the past 50 years), have been racist, misogynistic, homophobic and xenophobic. So the "cult of tradition" remains.

9. Pacifism is trafficking with the enemy: trump's party was and is all for a civil war. TRUMP wants his minions to "fight for their country". No pacifism there. And remember that the Orange Buffoon wanted a Russian-style military parade every year.

11. Everybody is educated to become a hero: See above. Plus, there's the current and ongoing abortion process where many Red states are proposing that the populace informs on the transgressors (just like Hitler's Germany), the Florida "don't say gay" laws, etc. Where everybody is being "educated" to inform on everybody else and therefore become a hero.

Of course wealth alone isn't a useful metric. But wealth combined with another metric is much more helpful. Why am I focusing on "wealth"? Because wealthy countries tend to have better health care systems. Wealthy countries tend to have lots of people who work in offices. Wealthy countries tend to have diverse racial populations.

The perfect metric would be wealthy countries with a similar age profile with a similar vaccine hesitancy with a similar rate of obesity.

Well first of all thank you for finally responding in a positive manner. Now we could have a more productive exchange. I still propose wealth w age is not very useful, and stil does not get you to an explanation of a cause for variation in results. There are far too many variables, as I mentioned before. In the case of Aus v USA. Explanations could be: - differences in general health of people, geographical location, state of public health care, vaccine hesitancy, cultural beliefs (Aus are a cowed lot who are submissive to authoritarian rule). So, to arrive at smthg like "government policy was the main cause of the poor USA result)" is completely unproven. Sure, it did play a part, but we do not know how significant it was, nor how an alternative party would have performed. And equally important is whether the public would have accepted an isolationist approach that Aus took (remember, they had to backtrack on the original zero-covid policy too).

I don; t think it's very productive. What I thinkis more productive is to campaign for better public health systems, and to stamp out the obvious lies and corruption in government between big pharma. It has been a hiuge money making racket, equal to false flag wars. Both parties are equally as culpable for the current state the USA is in.

In the USA, it is 3071 versus 2745 in Italy. So what? Thing you Dems keep trying to do is make numbers like this reflect government competence.

That is funny because there were a million cases a day in this country in January. So why are the cases numbers low now than then? Because the government is doing a 20 X better job now?

That is the thing you dumb Dems always do. You take on an issue like saying a government can cure a cold virus or set the climate or cure the opioid crisis, and Republicans are assholes for not caring about it. So you run around pointing a finger at us and say, "You do not care", and the solution is always the same, more government control, more spending, and higher taxes, and the results time after time are a disaster.

If you are so stupid as to think government is the answer with Covid, then the Biden administration has done a horrible job, and the numbers show that Biden did way worse than Trump. I do not see that government interventions did all that much with regards to Covid. If you think we got our money's worth spending $9 trillion on Covid, you are fucking nuts.

What surprises me is that you actually took the time to post this drivel.

And the Republicans, the party of limited government, wants government in everybody's bedrooms, everybody's boardrooms, everybody's amusement parks, everybody's libraries, everybody's classrooms. Everybody's everything. Limited government my ass. Talk about a bunch of morons!

[PVMonger]

I know the USA has a higher official death rate than nearly all other countries. Rich or poor. I never said it didn't. I never said Italy, UK, France and Spain did worse. I said they are also wealthy and performed poorly, and that wealth was not a useful metric.

You don't seem able to have an honest conversation so I am out.

My contention, and I have said it all along, is that compared to wealthy countries with similar age profiles, the US has done worse than all of them.

Your contention is that wealth is not a useful metric.

Of course wealth alone isn't a useful metric. But wealth combined with another metric is much more helpful. Why am I focusing on "wealth"? Because wealthy countries tend to have better health care systems. Wealthy countries tend to have lots of people who work in offices. Wealthy countries tend to have diverse racial populations.

Though I never get around to reading every post it seems clear that you put a lot of thought into defining Fascism. I applaud that. Frankly I was slow to call Trump a Fascist until the post election soft coups attempts accelerating into a violent one. Here's a historical piece drawing similarities between the George Wallace "white grievance" phenomenon and Trump while arguing that the former paved the way for the latter. There's plenty to digest, but I think it's dead on for the most part. Though much of the present penchant for paranoid conspiracy theories can be traced to Sara Palin, or at least in moving such into the GOP mainstream.
