Curious what the subsequent commandments are.We’ll never know.
The communist are opening a can of worms if they can get the court to say Trump didn't have immunity during Jan 6th. Now any setting president will have to think long and hard before doing anything, even if it benefits the country out of fear of being prosecuted.I'm trying to think, from a libertarian view, why it's a bad thing to reign in presidential actions that would otherwise be illegal for Joe citizen. The whole immunity issue is, IMHO, beside the point since Trump didn't break any laws and was within his rights. Yeah, it sucks that he has to defend himself and the courts are biased/rigged, but if the supreme court does rule that presidents aren't immune in some cases I'll notch that as a small win against the imperial presidency. I don't see such a win as actually hurting Trump though. So maybe a double win by hanging threats over future presidents while Trump's actions are found legal.
I don’t. Jim, why do you not want Putin to tell his side?There have been plenty of English language translations on the Internet of Putin and the Kremlin's views and public goals. If Carlson wants to spread them beyond the wonks who read that stuff that's fine with me. I simply state that he is engaging in propaganda, not journalism.
So you are alleging the media Mr. Carlson uses doesn't constitute journalism?He engages in propaganda - anyone who has watched his shows realizes that. Just because propagandists dig for and present dirt, er, facts, doesn't make them unbiased and thus journalists. I may agree with the goals of some propagandist but they are still what they are.
I get why you don't like the interview in question taking place. So are you in favor of the media controlling the narrative and not letting viewers see both sides of an issue?I never said I didn't like the interview taking place. I simply indicated that an ideal journalist would have also tried to interview Zelensky. But Carlson will likely not because he long ago indicated who he considers the worse side even before the secondary invasion of Ukraine:
Please provide your current list of journalists.That is the empty set. The meaning that I use are:
Exactly. She is staying in on the hope Trump gets bumped off or otherwise blocked from being president. Since DeSantis dropped out she would be the default nominee. If that happens I will NOT vote for her. I will write in Trump or sit out the election.More precisely, DeSantis says he put his campaign on hold.
Haha!!! I just liked Lucifer’s post in green about moderating the forum, but thought that for Joe’s sake I should say that I liked it because of its sarcasm. I’m so thoughtful.Lucifer's sarcasm doesn't have a target since no one has even hinted at moderation. Ironically his sarcasm is intended to stifle any further posts that note the use of insults. Deeply ironic, IMHO.
