Finally HE agitated the mob to a bloody storm for the Capitol.

All this is well-known.

Boy the prosecutor would love you. Don’t even have to wait for trial, he’s guilty!

In case you haven’t been paying attention they all pout and discredit the system and get lawyers involved when they lose. Hell, one even said after losing we should just get rid of the electorate all together which would amount to mob rule.

He forced them huh? I’d love to hear the story about how he managed that. Was it at gun point?

The reason they are called ‘fake’ electors is because everybody knows including the fakes they have absolutely no legal basis. It’s called political pandering, meaningless.

REALLY, Care to share the details, where’s the meticulously detailed indictment for insurrection? Oh wait, there isn’t one.

My opinion, the big reason why he has the support he does, is people believe he is being railroaded for the same transgressions other politicians have done.

It should be decided by a Lucha Libre Exploding Barbed Wire Death Match, complete with Luchador costumes, the works.

Issue 1 fails in Ohio which will lead to preserving reproductive rights for women. Democracy wins again.

It's not like the last US election was decided by "actual" voting. :D

Well, yes. Gore would have won in 2000, and Hillary Clinton in 2016.


"wE aRe nOT a deMOcrACy, bUt a rEPuBliC" is not an excuse for anti-representative dirty tricks.

Wonder why the GOP won't get on board with federally guaranteeing contraception? After, it ISN'T abortion.

You sound exactly like Donald "It's Rigged" Trump (after reading the post below he was probably right), Al "Hanging Chad" Gore and Hilliary "Abolish the Electorate" Clinton and every other politician after they lose an election. :har:

What you mean? The following health care and contraception has been available for over a year now.

Quote:

The ACA guarantees coverage of women’s preventive services, including free birth control and contraceptive counseling, for all individuals and covered dependents with reproductive capacity. This includes, but is not limited to:
Hormonal methods, like birth control pills and vaginal rings.
Implanted devices, like intrauterine devices (IUDs).
Emergency contraception, like Plan B® and ella®.
Barrier methods, like diaphragms and sponges.
Patient education and counseling.
Sterilization procedures.
Any additional contraceptives approved, granted, or cleared by the FDA.
However, it looks like you still have to buy your own Jimmy hats out of pocket.

The IRS can track every dollar you send on Venmo, yet it took 8 years to discover that Joe Biden got paid $20 million by Russian and Kazakhstani oligarchs during his vice presidency?

Like him or not but when the former president calls Zelensky to inquire he gets railroaded out office and the new president wannabe democrat dictator proclaims: “Well, we just have to demonstrate that he will not take power if he does run. I’m making sure he, under legitimate efforts of our Constitution, does not become the next President again.” Then starts a war to protect his financial interests. All done by democrats of course in the name of destroying the world’s oldest democracy to preserve democracy. :doh::06::oops: :har::har:

I dare all the gullible liberal headline chasing conspiracy theorists to make it make sense. C’mon let’s hear the excuses, collusion, forcing fake electors, meticulous insurrection investigations, he’s destroying democracy, Cohen will turn, low hanging fruit, any day now, it’s a Biden rope-a-dope? :yeah:

Agreed. The failure of the issue keeps the will of the majority riding heard over power hungry politicians.

Biden instead of fixing the problem drained the nations strategic oil reserves to keep gas prices down. Now that the reserves are drained gas prices are skyrocketing once again. All the while he's on the Weather Channel doubling down on the same stupid Green New Deal policies that are forcing families to pay more at the pump and others in third world countries to dig until they die.

My hero :roll:

Biden admin cancels oil order to replenish Strategic Petroleum Reserve: Report

Quote:

Biden drained the SPR last year to its lowest level in almost four decades.

The Biden administration has canceled an offer to buy 6 million barrels of oil to replenish America's Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), multiple outlets have reported.

Last year, President Biden drew criticism when he sold off 180 million barrels of oil from the SPR, resulting in a near 4-decade reserve low, which he claimed helped to "stabilize crude oil markets and reduce prices at the pump."

This July, the Department of Energy (DOE) announced a buyback plan to replenish the reserve. One of those acquisition orders, however, has been canceled amid rising oil costs, according to Reuters.

The administration previously set its target price was $67 to $72 per barrel, which is well below current market value. WTI and Brent Crude currently trade for more than $82 and $86 per barrel, respectively.

Nonetheless, a DOE official says the agency "remains committed to its replenishment strategy for the SPR."

What a shame that some well meaning President didn't try to refill the reserve when prices were low. :hmmm:
