Good for you bro

Thank you for answering my questions, but I hate spoilers as I stated. You are the one who posted politics is subjective and I quoted you and strongly agreed.

1 - You don't know and you don't care, if the Democrats tried to destroy Brett Kavanaugh personally, politically and professionally, who is highly qualified as a US Supreme Court Justice. they did try, I care and we care.

2 - Yes, Republicans and Democrats care and I care, about a Republican or Democrat majority on the US Supreme Court, the House and Senate. It is called politics, and it works both ways, not just one way. I am always fair and balanced to both sides and all sides.

3 - "Both parties are utterly fucking awful as people and as leaders"
I don't use any cuss words, I don't cuss, I guess we strongly agree the Republicans and the Democrats are not political saints.

4 - In Politics everything works both ways, not just one way. Elaborate? The Republicans Jerrymander and the Democrats Jerrymander. The Republicans lie and exaggerate and the Democrats lie and exaggerate. The Republicans and the Democrats fight and argue for their policies. Most Democrats say the Republicans don't about democracy, most Republicans say the Democrats don't care about democracy, the same things, charges, allegations and complaints the Democrats say about the Republicans, the Republicans say about the Democrats. This is the answer to the question I asked earlier and not even one of you got the answer right, as I expected. What do you guys think most Republicans say and think about the Democrats? The answer is the same most Democrats say and think about the Republicans. I am always or usually fair and balanced to both sides and all sides. I should get some credit for it, but I always get put down for it, by the leftist, democrat, progressives, leftists of all kinds and anti Trump Republicans, or as Therm say, the Real Leftists. I am not surprised or shocked by it, I expect it, :)

5 - In Politics Economic, Political and social issues are subjective not objective. You are the one who posted politics is subjective and I quoted you and strongly agreed. You gave me the idea of using this phrase, thank you for it. But you got me on genocide :)

Not you but Certain leftists on NS have posted to me, I think you cant grasp anything, another thing we can add to the list of things you don't know anything about, just because I said, I think, I did not say I know, I said I think. 2 leftists posted to me, for 4 Years we have tried to teach him, we have tried to educate him, but he does not listen, he is a F Brick Wall to talk too :) . Who are the Real F Brick Walls to talk to, Me or them? I say them. A certain leftist guy posted to me, the only persons who agree with you are imaginary persons, two or three of his leftists friends defended his post to me, this one is a classic :) Not you. but I am not politically stupid. I am not economically, politically and socially stupid, I just strongly and respectfully disagree with them and their politics. I am a Political Junky, and we are all Political Junkies on NS, if not we would not be on NS with our nations, with Pics of real world leaders and VIPs, with real world statistics as much as possible, and our nations, laws and Facts. In Politics all Persons, opinions, views and facts are their Facts. As you say Politics is subjective and I strongly agree with you, not objective.

Thank you for answering my 5 questions. I keep asking my 5 questions to all persons on NS, on the post where it belongs. Please no multi quotes I hate multi quotes. Please no Spoilers I hate Spoilers.

You say you are LMAO and so am I, :) :rofl: lol.

I don't care.

The question of qualification was one raised by the American Bar Association - twice, on two separate occasions, with more than a decade between them.

One day you're going to have to face the fact that your opinion is not a fact, and that when your opinions are different to the facts, your opinions are wrong.

"He gets immunity for what he says, or he says nothing": Trump's lawyers argue that Trump is being singled out in New York Probe, arguing his Constitutional Rights are being violated. They want to have immunity should he have to testify. They also claim James' investigation is "political" and should be dismissed on that basis alone. The judge appeared skeptical to that claim:

Engoron appeared skeptical that James might be playing politics by targeting the former president.

"If Ms. James has an opinion against him," the justice said, "he's just a bad guy she should go after as the chief law enforcement officer of this state."

And that's not me being unreasonable or biased - it should apply both ways - because the Supreme Court is supposed to be non-partisan, by design.

The politics comments are probably for qanon people. They love that garbage. All that matters is the claims and the evidence. They are going to have hard time defending the inflation for loans; deflation for tax claims.

The interesting thing is their tax firm trying to save themselves by severing ties. It sounds like the rats leaving the sinking ship move. They will probably get investigated no matter what. If said fraud is true; how did the miss it all those years?

But Kowani has a point, a non-partisan court is impossible, and wishing for one is like writing to Santa and asking him for a real life unicorn. The only possible outcome is disappointment.

How much of a political organization do you think it is? Is it political simply because people didn’t like the ruling?

I think the problem we face now is the inherent desire to place an ideologue versus simple bias. Probably a test case would be the three trump judges. See their rulings on something important to the republicans…..

This - it's a difference between personal politics, and activism.

Someone can have a bias, but it shouldn't affect their ruling - the explicit role of the Supreme Court is to make rulings on constitutionality regardless of parties, and if they're not able to do that (for whatever reason) then they are failing to do the one thing they exist for.

Certainly. I'm in the accounting field and there are standard procedures in the event that an accounting firm has to drop a client and deem financial statements unreliable if it came to it. But that's very rare and the fact Mazars did it should send alarm bells to anyone with loans currently to the Trump Organization and anyone that wants to do business with them. Of course, Mazars statement is done in a way to try to avoid them being entangled criminally but they could get further scrutinized it they an investigator thinks it's warranted.

Them deeming this unreliable also makes it harder for Trump to justify his inflated values and defend them. The question becomes whether he'll be given immunity if he has to testify in the Civil Case. That we should watch for.

I am a conservative. I am a law-and-order conservative, which means that issue like due process aren't just important to me, but paramount.

So, while I am pro-Second Amendment, and while I also argue for sensible regulation, I 100% opposed Trump saying that we should take people's guns away first and employ due process later.

So, while I think Kavanaugh is unqualified as a judge because the ABA has repeatedly said he is, I backed the ABA's call for a judicial committee review, because THAT is due process. And then I opposed them stopping the review just because he got confirmed - because that is NOT due process.

I am a conservative, which means I cannot identify with the current GOP. I'm not a republican, because (right now) they are not a conservative party.
