American Politics

[QUOTE=Canada;2574219]The DOH, FBI and CIA have already investigated the January 6 ordeal. They know all the details and who was involved. The House wants to do their independent investigation at a cost of $1.8 Billion to do another investigation. I think Republicans just feel $1.8 Billion can be spent in other areas helping the American people rather than just helping the democrats in congress hiring all their friends.

They have evidence showing that Covid came from the lab but they don't know if it was intentional or all was involved. The fact that Fauci and some of the scientists are trying to block the investigation creates a red flag. The fact that WHO did not do an investigation creates more red flags. The world needs to know. Not just Republicans. You as an American should demand an investigation as well as citizens of other countries so it never happens again.[/QUOTE]RepubliKKKans don't want a true bipartisan committee to investigate because it will show that (1) trump was the cause; (2) the mob was composed of trump supporters; (3) the "stolen election" BS was, like Billy Barr said, bullshit.

January 6th [B]was not[/B] peaceful. January 6th [B]was not[/B] "just like any other tourist day". January 6th [B]was[/B] a riot. January 6th [B]was[/B] comprised almost exclusively of trump supporters.

FYI, RepubliKKKans don't give a shit about money. Donnie spent like a drunken sailor and his BS tax cut never paid for itself. The only people who believe that are the same people who believe Fucker Carlson.

[QUOTE=Canada;2574733]Only a democrat would suggest honoring the 9-11 hijackers. How anti American are you? Why do you even live in this country? You are sick![/QUOTE]Yeah, exactly as I suspected. You can support and get behind monuments honoring enemies of the USA if they were responsible for the death of 620,000+ Americans but have so little interest in them if they were responsible for as few as 3,000 you consider the idea "sick." That is just not enough to impress you I suppose.

Maybe enemies of the USA being responsible for 620,000+ American deaths is the magic number for you. So if you support the idea of erecting a special monument to honor Anti-American traitor Donald J. Trump we won't need to ask why.

Actually, I don't live in the USA anymore. But I lived there for almost 60 years, still own property there, still pay taxes there and still vote in every election the same safe and legitimate way Trump did; by mail-in ballot.

[QUOTE=Canada;2574713]Yes I agree. Different people are offended for different reasons. Patriotic Americans that like the USA stand for the National Anthem and respect the flag. It offends us that Anti American democrats protest the anthem and disrespect or burn the flag. Keep disrespecting America. It defines who you are.[/QUOTE]I guess you don't believe in freedom of speech. Because for many years, [B]burning the flag[/B] has been an acceptable form of freedom of speech under the First Amendment. I, for one, respect the law of the land. Evidently you don't.

It offends patriots like me that Anti American republiKKKans are ignorant of the law. Keep disrespecting America, republiKKKan. It defines who you are.

Many countries had civil wars and that is part of their history regardless of who was right or wrong. The idea that you compare Americans to terrorists defines who you are.

[QUOTE=GDreams;2574736]So as usual you just fabricate opinions based on unsubstantiated rumours. The fact is that the closest known coronavirus is about 96% similar to this coronavirus. As I pointed out to Chrisp chimps are 98% similar DNA to humans. To genetically engineer that without it being obvious is pretty much impossible you would need to change thousands of sequences. So if it was engineered then where did the source come from? The only reason it is being discussed is that some geneticists thing some of the DNA looks suspect but for that to be proven you would need the source DNA. Which goes back to there is a naturally occurring virus that is much more likely to have just crossed species than being developed in a lab. Could this have been collected by the lab and escape? Possible. Do you really think China would deliberately leak it on their own population first? Yeah that makes sense. So what are you going to hold China accountable for? Maybe collecting a sample from nature for scientific study and allowing it to escape? So what if they did? Are you going to shut down every research institute in the world studying dangerous diseases because they may have a leak or do we continue studying them and look to be proactive in developing cures? You watch some idiot on Fox pretend to be news and let morons like Hannity and Carlson think for you. And don't tell me about CNN. I don't have cable and don't watch any of them or tv apart from sport, or twitter or facebook because I am capable of thinking for myself.[/QUOTE]Obviously you don't care that the China pandemic killed millions of people worldwide. It doesn't matter if it leaked out on purpose or by accident in the Wuhan lab. What matters is that they investigate to determine what caused it and how it was created to prevent it from happening again. It is not important to you to save lives in the future but only important to you that Trump doesn't get credit for saving lives in the future.

The BS tax cuts provided millions of jobs and put more money in the pockets of Americans. You may think that the government can spend your money better than you can but I don't. The only ones that the BS tax cuts didn't help is people who don't work and are dependent on the government. The people who are looking for free stuff from the government basically democrats did not get benefit from the tax cuts. Tax cuts are not fair for all the population. Democrats on welfare get no benefit from them that is why they whine about it on this forum.

Democrats claim election fraud can't happen and then a democrat state encounters it. NYC had the democrat primary for mayor and they had over 100,000 more votes than voters. Wow that can't happen can it. Seems like they had not cleared previous votes out and had 135,000 illegal votes in the computers. This is just in one city of democrats who supposedly know how to do legal elections. I wonder how the democrats are going to spin this one.

Any time you say a person of color "always brings race into it", it proves you don't understand. Because a person of color has a different viewpoint from yours and by saying what you say, you say to that person "I don't care if it offends you because it doesn't offend me."

Any time you say that "statues are history", it proves you don't understand. Because you are saying to that offended black person "what offends you doesn't matter".

Every time you call COVID "the China virus" you say to every person of Chinese descent "You are responsible."

Any time you say "Gays want to force their lifestyle on me", it proves you don't understand. Because you are saying to them "Since I'm offended, you don't matter".

Every reasonable person will understand what I just wrote.

There was a person behind this that's known to be working for a particular candidate?

Or was this just an error that was caught and fixed.

Fraud or RepubliKKKAN BS?

Fraud or RepubliKKKAN BS?[/QUOTE]No it wasn't fraud. It was human and machine error that created 135,000 extra votes. The democrat that was ahead protested the results and claimed that there were more votes than voters just like the general election. Fortunately they investigated immediately and it was corrected. Democrats in the general election claimed this scenario was impossible. What now?

Every reasonable person will understand what I just wrote.[/QUOTE]I don't have an issue with people of color bringing up racism as I have several friends of color. None of them ever claim racism. None of them have a problem with confederate statues. I have a problem with white socialists / democrats that claim racism on everything. I have a problem with white democrats who claim people of color are too stupid to get a drivers license or find a way to the poles. It isn't the people of color trying to get rid of the statues. It is the white democrats pushing the racism theory to get rid of the statues.

The China virus is not the Chinese people to blame but the Chinese government is to blame. This is a communist government that does not care about their people.

Gays have never forced their lifestyle on me and I actually have friends that have gay children. I have a problem with gays expecting to be treated special. They should be treated the same as everyone else in USA.

Democrats are the biggest racists ever and they keep blaming everyone else. Democratic states are a good example of this. Cities like Chicago and Baltimore do nothing for their colored community and crime and murders are the highest in democratic cities than republican cities. This is a fact no matter how many times you fact check it on your liberal sites.

You hate American history and you hate America and you try to apologize for the horrible USA on this site. Why do you democrats have such hatred?

[QUOTE=Explorer8939;2574532]Anyone in the government who downplayed the virus in early 2020 should be investigated. You know, those idiots who said the virus was contained.[/QUOTE]Like Fauci, who said in early 2020 that it was nothing to worry about. Or Pelosi, who encouraged Americans to go out and hug Chinese people in the same period.

The twice-impeached, one-term orange buffoon has been named by historians as one of the worst Presidents. The only presidents who ranked lower than Trump were Franklin Pierce, Andrew Johnson, and James Buchanan. Why the orange fruitcake wasn't ranked lower is a mystery.

The idea that you compare Americans to terrorists defines who you are.[/QUOTE]Yes, I was including the Confederate soldiers in the number of American deaths Confederate generals, politicians and traitors were responsible for and whose monuments and statues you honor. They were domestic terrorists who hated the USA. The same as the violent Trumpsters who invaded the Capitol Building on Trump's directions to attack and overthrow American democracy and overturn the legitimate election results.

Rare and isolated voting fraud incidents have been occurring in this country probably since it was put on the map. What has never happened is a massive voting fraud that would affect the outcome.

That has never happened in major elections. Not once.

Now, what you call an "election fraud" in NYC might be a result of a mistake, structural flaw, incompetence, clusterfuck, but fraud it isn't. As Chris Hayes says: "Any systematic election irregularities—whether incompetence or fraud—will out itself. You cannot pull it off without getting caught. ".
