Juan Merchan failed the American people.

No he hasn't The prosecution had no objection to delaying the sentencing. It needs time to write a brief that presents some new arguments. Ones that take into account the Supreme Court's decision.

I don't see that Merchan had any choice. You want to blame somebody? So blame the Supreme Court conservatives.

orangedonshittypants just got a big break from the hush money trial.
Juan Merchan failed the American people. Not only that he has lifted parts of the gag order.
wtf is wrong with everybody?

Yeah, I know, chicken little, but fuck me. Is everybody on shittypants's epstein list?

Obviously both parties benefit at any given point, so neither side wants to lose whatever that election scam control is.

If something is broke and needs to be fixed and the people involved don't make any effort, then they need it to stay broke for their status quo. IMO.

I've seen this directly with cities and corps I've been employed with.

I wonder if orangedonshittypants is the sole owner of Jeffrey Epstein's member and party lists w/pictures?

I love this first page entry on wiki for jeff... it's like it's a boring job list...taxi driver and plumber....lol

Jeffrey Edward Epstein (/'?psti?n/ EP-steen;[1] January 20, 1953 – August 10, 2019) was an American financier and sex offender.

[janice shell]

I agree. Trouble is, the smaller states would object.

[janice shell]

As I said, I don't think anyone's vote should be worth more than anyone else's.

I have nothing against rural Americans, and I don't think I've said anything nasty about them. But traditionally, Americans have been a very mobile society. That was something that separated us from the rest of the world. As the nation expanded, its citizens, most of them farmers, moved west.

Even in the late 20th century, people moved from northern manufacturing centers to the sunbelt. So why is it people in some parts of the country are just taking opioids and moaning about the closure of the coal mines?

[Zorax]

Then it should be abolished as it's clearly being manipulated to this day.

He wasn’t president at that time.

Yes he was. He wrote the checks to Michael Cohen when he was president. Here's a timeline:

Was a time ago, but i recall at least some of them or one saying the reason you have the electoral college is that you can't always trust majority rule.

No. It was a concession to the southern states, to preserve slavery.

There is a difference, your always wrong on everything.

[conix]

zab-- I actually know all of those 59 voters that will never vote for Trump. And they all know you and told me to say hi!

Was that a Yes or NO for Biden to continue to "lead" this country with Dr. Jill, Zorax?

What the hell do you care?

You're voting for Putin anyway.

No it would not. He should stay and will win

Biden Locks Up Supreme Court Justices, Cancels 2024 Election, and Exiles Trump to Siberia
Jul 02, 2024



WASHINGTON, D.C. - In his first official acts following the Supreme Court’s ruling that presidents are totally immune from prosecution, President Biden took quick action today by ordering the arrest of all six conservative Supreme Court justices, canceling the 2024 election, and exiling former President Donald Trump to Siberia.

"The Constitution was designed to shield the people from domestic tyranny and foreign threats," Biden stated in a press conference. "Given the Supreme Court's recent decision, it’s clear that drastic measures are necessary to protect our democracy from threats foreign and domestic."

The decision to imprison the justices came swiftly after the Supreme Court ruled in favor of granting Trump immunity for his actions on January 6, 2021. Critics argue that this ruling effectively places the president above the law, leading Biden to take what he described as "emergency constitutional measures."


Supreme Court Justices Arrested

Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett, Neil Gorsuch, and John Roberts were taken into custody early this morning in several carefully orchestrated pre-dawn raids. Eyewitnesses described scenes of confusion and protest as law enforcement officials escorted the judges from their homes. Chief Justice John Roberts was seen being led away in handcuffs, while Justice Brett Kavanaugh was seen crying like a 5-year-old boy. Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas both reportedly peed their pants in terror.

2024 Election Canceled

In another bold move, President Biden announced the cancellation of the 2024 presidential election. "In light of recent events, we must reassess our electoral process to ensure it truly serves the people," he explained. Pundits have praised the president's official actions, with some calling to transform the presidency into a permanent monarchy, controlled entirely by the Democratic Party.

Trump's Exile to Siberia

President Biden also ordered the immediate capture and exile of Donald Trump to Siberia. Apprehended by Seal Team 6 and transported under heavy guard, Trump was reportedly furious, taking to his social media platform for one last all-caps meltdown before Truth Social is shut down forever by King Biden:

"THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS!! BIDEN ISN’T IMMUNE, I’M IMMUNE!!! I WILL RETURN STRONGER THAN EVER! BELIEVE MEEE! 😭😭😭 NO PLEASE DON’T TAKE MY PHON"

Public Reaction

Reactions from the public have been mixed. Supporters of Biden praised the boldness of his actions. "Finally, someone is standing up to the corruption," said one supporter. Opponents, however, view the measures as an overreach of executive power. "This is awful!" warned Fox News' Sean Hannity. "What’s to stop future presidents from doing the same? What if there are no future presidents now? What if Biden puts me in prison next for all the horrible things I’ve said and done?"

"The American people deserve better than what we’ve been given," King Biden remarked. "This is not about revenge; it’s about safeguarding our future. Perhaps the Supreme Court should have thought more carefully about what they were doing. Be careful what you wish for."

--------------------------------------------

DISCLAIMER: Unfortunately, this is satire. President Biden would never do any of these, because he has decency. But Trump wouldn’t hesitate for a second. And those justices will back him up every step of the way.

ENGAGEMENT QUESTION: Do you think Biden should do something like this? Pack the court? On a scale of 1-10, how angry are you about this latest development?

President Biden is our choice, now if the Republicans could only find someone else than trump, especially when 57-59 percent of America will never vote for him.

[Zorax]

Yours first dumbass bitch.

[blackhawks]

Throw in amoral, mendacious, felonious and just plain f'ing stupid and ill-informed.

[DesertDrifter]

Yes, even with all Bull's bluster, he is hard not to like ;)

Not as hard as you think. He has fuagf and I banned on his board for questioning him. He is a control freak who complained many times to admin that somehow this board had some sort of "advantage" over his because it is a free board and his is not. So after all his complaints, when IHUB changed and offered to make his a free board, he naturally and hypocritically refused, as he would give up a little of his control. The posts are there of him being offered free status. When I retaliated about his bullshit, he had a hissy fit and called me a stalker, etc. He so generously offers me one post per day there, so that conversation is impossible and he can control it. I would really enjoy if you two bozos moved over there to post your repetitive baloney.

I see the BS401 rolodex of whining and grievance has recycled to urban vs. rural again. With a side twist of societal collapse/armageddon. Since WV is now a welfare state that takes handouts from the successful states, with towns turning into empty storefront skeletons, I would hazard that essentially his local society has ALREADY collapsed and survives on charity... and apparently eating coal is going to sustain them. And that shining example is what we are supposed to believe is a better way.

[rooster]

Well if just 59 Americans won’t vote for him I think he’ll still be able to win

[zab]

Once again, trump is bat shit, off the wall, cannot complete a sentence, or a thought, crazy.

[B402]

I like his analogies, but he may consider one thing......Biden has an obvious mental impairment.....Never before seen in an American election or politics.......

I can understand people voting for anyone other than trump, but will enough be willing to accept Biden's condition as opposed to...........Can dems spin this enough? Should they?

[B402]

The road less traveled.......Yes, even with all Bull's bluster, he is hard not to like ;)

[zab]

57-59 of America will never vote for trump, that reality never changes.

[zab]

You being in West Virginia, you can adapt to no food, I doubt most conservatives will like it as much as you do. They are accustomed to getting their monthly government handouts.

dukeb: "Have you ever seen a 94 year old drive?: I had a uncle that lived to 98 and was still driving all over Texas. In fact when he was 97 he bought a new car.

[longrider51]

Sure he does and which is why the effort is being made to stay within the framework established by the court...a little context please, no misleading absolutism, lol.

https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/22/politics/biden-student-loan-forgiveness-supreme-court/index.html

[B402]

Its also just plain wrong for the population centers to have complete control........Think of the hunger games scenario and serfs of the past......Whats out of sight, ends up out of mind.....Just look at how you talk about rural Americans...Wouldn't take long for people to justify just about anything....And they haven't been doing a bad job of it already....

[rooster]

No Joe doesn’t listen to America or the Supreme Court

[B402]

America has broken down in the past, maybe we need to look like Gaza in ruin, would not bother me.

Well,,,,,In case you didn't notice, people have been looking for drastic change......So, they've already considered exactly what you are saying.....

Sadly, in the past....There was food everywhere...... Now, one run on the grocery store ends the food supply....Won't be as bad for those out in the rural areas, but most will still starve....

So stick your chest out all you want, doubt you will be as brave if, and when, chit hits the fan.....What is understood is things can't continue. And as you say, maybe its time for a complete break down and let the survivors start over and maybe they will do better next time around....

As you also said, History repeats, break downs in civilization have occurred over and over.....Very good chance this will be no different, just the consequences will be much more severe....

So now America only answers to the Supreme Court. So much for elections.

[rooster]

Let’s see no president is above the law yet the Supreme Court said Joe can’t pay off student loans but say said screw you Supreme Court and did it anyway! Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

So you still support Biden for President and not concerned about his cognition and ability?

IF there was a way to replace him on the ticket, would you support that move?

OK--- One vote here for staying with Biden.

[blackhawks]

Funny how the 'explorers' of vaping overlook, didn't discover, decided to omit, the health risks. It's as though Lewis and Clark stopped at the Continental Divide. 'We ain't gettin' across that'; not a practical travel route anyhow. Let's go back'.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_and_Clark_Expedition

President Thomas Jefferson commissioned the expedition, shortly after the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, to explore and detail as much of the new territory as possible. Furthermore, he wished to find a practical travel route across the western half of the continent—directly avoiding the hot and desolate desert southwest—

Research from The Johns Hopkins University on vape ingredients published in October 2021 reveals thousands of chemical ingredients in vape products, most of which are not yet identified. Among those the team could identify were several potentially harmful substances, including caffeine, three chemicals never previously found in e-cigarettes, a pesticide and two flavorings linked with possible toxic effects and respiratory irritation.

2: Research suggests vaping is bad for your heart and lungs.
Nicotine is the primary agent in regular cigarettes and e-cigarettes, and it is highly addictive. It causes you to crave a smoke and suffer withdrawal symptoms if you ignore the craving. Nicotine is a toxic substance. It raises your blood pressure and spikes your adrenaline, which increases your heart rate and the likelihood of having a heart attack.

Is vaping bad for you? There are many unknowns about vaping, including what chemicals make up the vapor and how they affect physical health over the long term. “People need to understand that e-cigarettes are potentially dangerous to your health,” says Blaha. “Emerging data suggests links to chronic lung disease and asthma, as well as associations between dual use of e-cigarettes and smoking with cardiovascular disease. You’re exposing yourself to all kinds of chemicals that we don’t yet understand and that are probably not safe.”

[sortagreen]

[sortagreen]

Doesn't that make you as bad?

Yes, Mr. Manchin's oral relief assistant, bringing a gun to a gunfight makes you just as bad. Not bringing one makes you dead.

Like always, as long as you get to play your game of you can't be touched. Nothing like being in America and being told what to do day after day. Now it's acceptable for trump to overturn an election, or even have immunity in whatever he does. But if you bring up that reality now you want to point out that isn't fair. America has broken down in the past, maybe we need to look like Gaza in ruin, would not bother me.

A couple of weeks ago I had lunch with an old work colleague. He's 87 years old; pulled up in his late model Lincoln and parallel parked like a pro.

For 2 1/2 hours we sat in a private room at his favorite Italian restaurant where they know him by name and bring him goodies: a free glass of wine (waiter said another patron paid for the bottle and didn't finish it), little bites brought to the table and after dinner drinks. He was full of entertaining stories going back to his youth; a time when the now densely populated suburb he still lives in had small farms scattered about and when he had a summer job waiting tables at a resort in the Catskill Mountains.

At one point he mentioned that he has an uncle who was still kicking at 100. The uncle gets a new Mercedes every year and still drives.

Good genes can make a hella difference in your later years.

Have you ever seen a 94 year old drive?
