Busted: Trump repeatedly called for jailing presidents before saying he had immunity
It’s no surprise that Trump is once again caught in the act of hypocrisy. Throughout his presidency, he tirelessly advocated for the imprisonment of other presidents, conveniently disregarding the principles of fairness and justice. It’s the classic case of “rules for thee, not for me.” But what is truly concerning is the underlying authoritarian impulse that these actions reveal.
Trump’s blatant disregard for the law and his insidious desire to have laws that punish others while ensuring his own freedom reflect a dangerous ambition for unchecked power. His legal argument that President Biden could have him, his family, the Supreme Court, and the Senate executed by the military without any intervention from the court unless Congress impeaches him is deeply disturbing.… Continue reading
Just know who is blocking a Border Security deal…It isn’t Biden!
The border security issue has been a hot topic in American politics for years. Republicans have often been champions of this issue, claiming that securing the border is of utmost importance to protect American citizens. However, recent developments have shown that it is not President Biden who is blocking a border security deal, but rather it is the actions and inactions of certain Republican politicians that are standing in the way.
It is disheartening to see how the issue of border security has become nothing more than a political talking point for many Republicans.… Continue reading
When I saw the headline about a Trump supporter becoming a diehard fan after witnessing him hug the American flag, I couldn’t help but shake my head in disbelief. How could such a simple gesture, so devoid of substance, have such a profound impact on someone’s political allegiance? It became clear to me that these individuals were easily swayed by shallow displays of patriotism, rather than focusing on the actual policies and principles that truly matter.
The fact that some people fell for this stunt is a testament to their gullibility. As the saying goes, “You’ve got to remember that these are just simple people.… Continue reading
Reflecting on the recent statements made by Rudy Giuliani, it’s truly disheartening to witness such a lack of remorse and accountability from someone who was once regarded as America’s Mayor. Giuliani proudly declares that he would do it all again, despite the fact that his actions have led to his indictment. This level of arrogance and disregard for the rule of law is deeply troubling.
One can’t help but wonder how someone who achieved so much good for New York City could end up becoming such a despicable figure. Giuliani’s fall from grace is truly astonishing. He was once seen as a fighter against corruption and crime, but now it seems that he may have been one of them all along.… Continue reading
Trump calls for all willing States to deploy their guards to Texas
Trump’s recent call for various states to deploy their guards to Texas has sparked controversy and concern among many. As an outsider observing the situation, I can’t help but feel that Trump is fomenting a civil war. The idea of using armed groups to fight against government forces is deeply troubling and goes against the principles of democracy and peace.
While some may find this call to action amusing or entertaining, I take it very seriously. It reminds me of the dangerous events that unfolded on January 6th, when a small faction of individuals tried to overthrow the American government.… Continue reading
Missouri senator has proposed a rule change that would allow senators to challenge each other to a duel. When I first heard about this, I couldn’t help but feel a mixture of horror, disbelief, and amusement. It seems like something out of a movie or a historical novel, not a serious proposal in our modern society. But unfortunately, it seems to be a disturbing trend among some right-wing politicians.
Let’s address the obvious concerns first. Duels are archaic, violent, and completely unnecessary. The idea of senators resolving their conflicts through physical violence is not only undemocratic, but it also sets a dangerous precedent.… Continue reading
Ban of transgender people from Utah’s public bathrooms passes Senate
As I read about the recent decision to ban transgender individuals from using public restrooms in Utah, I couldn’t help but feel a mix of anger, frustration, and disbelief. It is disheartening to witness such discriminatory policies being passed in this day and age, especially in a country that prides itself on equality and freedom.
The statistics speak volumes about the direction of American politics. With 28% of Gen Z identifying as LGBTQ+ and 22% identifying as Republican, it is clear that the demographics are shifting. However, the ban on transgender people using public bathrooms in Utah shows that certain factions of the Republican party are digging their heels in and trying to resist change.… Continue reading
As I watched the first debate for the GOP candidates, I couldn’t help but feel like I was watching a circus performance. The moment when candidates were asked to raise their hands if they had ever been arrested was like a clown car crashing into a wall. Six out of the nine candidates proudly raised their hands, eliciting cheers and applause from the audience.
It’s ironic that the party that claims to be the champion of “law and order” is filled with individuals who have had brushes with the law. It’s a clear indication of the hypocrisy within the Republican party.… Continue reading
Republicans turned down $13.6 billion for border security on January 18th. This decision has sparked controversy and debate, highlighting the broader issues surrounding immigration and border control in the United States. As I reflect on this topic, it becomes clear that the Republican Party’s actions are not driven by genuine concern for border security, but rather by political motivations.
It is evident that Republicans view immigration as a reliable way to raise funds and rally their base. The issue of immigration, specifically illegal immigration, has been a divisive topic that consistently stirs emotions and sparks heated debates. By positioning themselves as tough on immigration, Republicans can energize their base and gain support.… Continue reading
Habba’s closing argument in the E. Jean Carroll case has, according to experts, done the seemingly impossible by making Trump’s position even worse. This latest development in the ongoing legal battle has left many questioning the intelligence and competence of both Habba and her client.
Throughout the trial, Habba repeatedly made controversial statements, including claiming that Carroll, who is an assault and rape victim, should consider herself lucky and be grateful for the abuse she suffered because it made her more famous. Such appalling remarks demonstrate a shocking lack of empathy and understanding, particularly towards those who have experienced such trauma.… Continue reading
