SHOULD Pence run for President in 2024--he will have no chance. For sure. He has zero charisma, amongst other issues. It's DeSantis, or Trump representing the Republicans. Both are currently under multiple investigations for human trafficking, tax fraud, election fraud, regular fraud and espionage. What a ticket! |

Check the list of accomplishments the administration has gotten done, what was inherited and his popularity number continuing to rise. Again, hyperbole vs reality. |

I think the Trump / Greene is a winning ticket.

Biden’s political career has been one political screw up after another, so this poor handling of the docs doesn’t surprise me.
Sleepy Joe has got to go!
I want our gas prices at $2.65/gallon in CA
I don’t want sticker shock every time I go to the store/supermarket.
I want a president who can tell the difference between the Secret Service and the Salvation Army!
Honestly, the willful stupidity in supporting the tired Dem brand and demented, corrupt, America hating, Fang Banging politicians by many people on this board is astounding.
Brainwashing by the left leaning media is the only possible explanation.

Sounds like you're a fan of Biden now, after previously saying you're not? No, but facts are facts. It's a hell of a lot better than obstructionist nonsense like investigating Antifa or holding the government hostage over the debt ceiling. Nominating insurrectionists to important committees, gaslighting the public on critical issues...it all matters in the end. |

You're an unserious person uninterested in the truth and you're posting outright lies constantly. No brainwashing required? What's truly astounding is you still don't understand that presidents don't control or set gas prices. It's humorous that you accuse people on this board of being brainwashed by the liberal media, yet every single one of your posts reads like a parody tweet from the Onion or Tucker in primetime. No original thought, no critical analysis, just peddling GOP talking points on a loop. It's really not necessary. |

Yeah, I'm cool with not taking lectures from you on this topic. A person that stated Mike Pence was a man of character who didn't have a past with a "lack of integrity." When confronted and shown the opposite, you didn't even acknowledge it. I believe Pence did the right thing on January 6th, I believe he likely didn't know about the issue of his classified material, but he's still a complete asshat of a person with a hugely checkered past of bigotry and marginalization. All those things can be true at the same time. There's a stark difference between posting obvious false information (otherwise known as talking points: Blaming Biden for high gas prices, inflation, Afghanistan, basically everything over and over and over again) and actual facts/evidence. I'm sorry you're uninformed and refuse to do any kind of research of your own, but that's your call. I like to learn and the truth is important; my perspective is shaped from that core concept. It's why I know, for example, the monumental difference between Biden's "corruption" and Trump's corruption, Pompeo's corruption, Barr's corruption, etc. Sounding boards don't equal real-life scenarios and my "ego" doesn't tell me that, basic common sense does. |

I refuted it. In your other examples, I would need to look more into them. I can't by YOUR opinion alone. Also, that had nothing to do with me calling you out, saying you're just like everybody else. You constantly bring up talking points, (otherwise known as your opinions) videos, quotes, AD NAUSEUM. You have zero room to talk in regards to that. You just simply don't like hearing it. It must have hurt your ego. Of course you put Biden's "corruption" in parentheses. Not a shocker. |

No original thought, no critical analysis, just peddling GOP talking points on a loop. It's really not necessary. Presidents don’t set the price of gas, but they certainly can affect the market by reducing supply, cancelling a pipeline or not allowing drilling permits on federal land. One person’s brainwashing is another person’s opinion making. How else can it be explained? Democrat voters elect and reelect candidates who are clearly mentally deficient (Federman, Biden) hate the country (Omar),or are so stupid they sleep with foreign spies (Swalwell). Why do these candidates keep receiving votes? The news is so slanted and edited in favor of the Democratic Party, how can it not be brainwashing? I suppose you think Hunter Biden is an honest and moral person? That Hillary Clinton was somehow justified when she and her staff destroyed evidence against her? I know you democrats hate Trump, and he certainly is a controversial figure. Most democrats actually liked him before he got involved in politics other than donating money to democrats, but the instant he announced his political intentions he became evil incarnate overnight. How did that happen? Simple. The liberal collective received their marching orders and the plebs fell into line. It just seems that when a Republican gets a black eye in politics, they are done, gone. That’s why there are fewer of them who have character issues. On the other hand, Democrats sleep with foreign spies and they are not out on their @$$? Instead they are lined up for influential committees? I honestly don’t see how any clear thinking objective person can support that. It’s as if you ignore reality and substitute a wild fiction given to you by the news outlets. |

I honestly don’t see how any clear thinking objective person can support that. It’s as if you ignore reality and substitute a wild fiction given to you by the news outlets. Nope. Oil prices are mostly set by global markets and simple supply and demand. All you have to do is look at historical crude oil prices per barrel and what you'll see is simple corporate greed for oil executives, predominantly. Different things can trigger supply issues: Hurricanes in the Gulf disrupting refineries, conflict overseas, etc...but it's not up to the president. Once again, the "pipeline" you're referring to was never operational and had zero effect on oil or gas here in the United States. Not now, not then, not ever. The rest of your post is disproven conspiracy theory, which is doing nothing but reinforcing your lack of seriousness. Won't waste my time dignifying it with any kind of explanation. It's the "talking points" I've referred to over and over. You know Swalwell was cleared two plus years ago, for example. Keep beating that drum though. |

I didn't write the material I showed you, it's not my editorial, I happen to agree with the representation when the facts align. And yeah, you would have to look more into it....which was my entire point of you not doing exactly that? I remember a time when you used to do "research"....must have fallen off pretty hard. And yeah it's not a shocker because I *know* the difference. William Barr obstructed justice; not my opinion. A federal appeals panel ruled just that. apnews.com/article/russia-ukraine-donald-trump-william-barr-obstruction-of-justice-992952614b7619681df0e1109548a27fRegarding the Donald: He's under investigation for tax fraud in New York, numerous charges in Florida due to the documents case, election fraud and tampering in Georgia and in Washington D.C. Again, not my opinion, real life truth. He credibly admitted himself to obstructing justice, he ignored the advice of White House counsel (per testimony from his aides and multiple corroborated sources) to return all of the documents to NARA and has waived all of his privilege regarding possessory interest in every court hearing to this point. Corruption. Regarding Mike Pompeo: Former CIA chief and SoS under Trump, he and Trump set the Afghanistan removal of troops into motion with the meeting they took with the Taliban. Multiple former Trump cabinet officials, including his own former SoD concluded Trump "undermined" U.S. leverage in the deal and signed what was seen as a "surrender" agreement. This is in addition to the meeting that was scrapped at Camp David near the anniversary of 9/11. More specifically to Pompeo himself: He requested Trump fire IG Steve Linick at the State Department, even though Linick was investigating Pompeo for violations of misuse of personnel and misrepresentation of military aid to Saudi Arabia. That's corruption at its core. I trust the differences can be spotted with these cases and what Joe Biden is accused of. |

I'm not a lawyer, a doctor, a national security expert or an astronaut. That doesn't mean the material isn't credible, nor does it mean the language is loaded with bias. It's a large part of the reason why I avoid extremist publications and try to focus on neutrality, as facts matter. Biden was lambasted for his timing of the withdrawal, that is actually true. However, it was his opinion that failing to adhere to the parameters of a deal that had already been struck wasn't an option. Inevitably, the withdrawal was always going to be chaotic. Was it handled poorly? Sure. But escalating further wasn't an option, or you'd have even more loss of life as a result. |

I can find a lot of other opinions (talking points) that would say the contrary. You basically said that you post unbiased opinions. You post opinions that are not loaded with biased language, you say??? I almost spit up in my drink. You constantly post biased opinions. I get it, it's a natural, human thing when hates involved, and you want to keep your narrative going. You post these types of things AD NAUSEUM. Have at it. |

Afghanistan is called the graveyard of empires for a reason; it's an unwinnable war stacked against a culture that knows nothing but authoritarian rule. Sending more troops in inevitably leads to a greater risk of conflict, this is the Taliban we're talking about after all. The short answer is mistakes were made by multiple parties, Biden included. The conflict between military and political perspective was a massive issue, as was the intelligence failure of the Taliban's advanced readiness to take over the country. I know you think your second point is some kind of massive "own"...but I'm talking about opinions other than mine, from sources far beyond me. Avoiding extremism is paramount. |
