Do you understand how Democracy works? It is an expression of the public will through voting. A Republic is an expression of public will through the election of our representatives.

To continue on with American civics lesson, the U.S. Congress has an equal say in the Ukrainian appropriations. A 2/3 majority in the Senate and the House essentially can appropriate any sum they decide without Presidential authority.

Nothing I am saying here is even a matter of opinion.
With Trump getting into the White House, I think the 2/3 majority would be difficult. I don't think enough republicans would stand up to a Trump that actually got voted in, he is one nasty person if you turn against him, I mean sure Nixon has an enemies list but Trump is next level vindictive.

Albeit, I'm 99% sure he will not win in a general election because unlike the dummies voting in the primary, the general public has a little bit more brains.
According to the polls on that 538 site, it seems a bit too close to call, which is a whole level of what the fuck.

Farcical aquatic ceremonies man, that's what I'm on about.

Well, Russia lost its wars in Finland, Afghanistan and the Cold War, so attrition doesn't always work.....

I do agree that Russians have incredible resiliency when suffering unbelievable hardship during war. They did defeat the Nazis using such resiliency......
Debatable.

They HAD to win World War Two because Adolpho was going to genocide them.

The 3 previous wars hadn't gone so well. The Crimean War (1852-1854) was the usual debacle of corruption and incompetence and was hopelessly lost. To keep power, the Czar had to liberate the serfs.

The Russo-Japanese War (1905) was the usual debacle of corruption and incompetence and was hopelessly lost. It led to street demonstrations which the Czar dealt with by massacring the demonstrators. But then the Czar was forced to grant a limited democratic government.

World War One was the usual debacle of corruption and incompetence and was hopelessly lost. Oh and the czar was dethroned and killed with his family.

I believe that Republicans would humble themselves to grovel-fellate him and drink his urine like fine wine.

So he seems to be an erratic poster. So we need your unique perspective on feces?
Impressive, very nice, let's hear Paul Allen's perspective. Oh he isn't available, how about Jon Lajoie

The number 37 is much better than the number 2.

37 is such an be-ooti-full number, some would say the most be-ooti-full number ever. Itz ex-cuiz-it, and ella-quint.

"Say his number! Say his number! Say his number!"

"Number 37!!!!!"

"Jack Smith, if you can hear us. Do justice for the number 37!!!!"
From what I understand 73 would be even better.

“The best number is 73,” Cooper explained in the episode. “Why? 73 is the 21st prime number. Its mirror, 37, is the 12th, and its mirror, 21, is the product of multiplying seven and three ... and in binary, 73 is a palindrome, 1001001, which backwards is 1001001.”

I gotta say, I think it would be in Ukraine's interest to have a vote in Crimea and the Donuts and Loserchance Oblasts subregion by subregion as to if they want to stay or go with rules to prevent enclaves and excessive bordergore. I mean a real election, not that fake bullshit done by Poutine. A real election watched over by the Swiss, the Liechtensteiners, People with a rep for neutrality and not being corrupt.

I don't think it would do anyone good for Ukraine to bring back in a bunch of people who would rather be Russian, if after almost 10 years and the war and their peeps being called up for cannon fodder they still want to stay, fuck em. If Ukraine takes it back it will forever be a sore point with Russia, at least with an election you can't bitch too much about it and also having people in your country that want to fuck your shit up isn't a good thing either both in general and with elections.
Give people a chance after the election to move out, easy peasy sort of lemon squeezy.
Again by subregion, no enclaves. If Quebec North wants to stay in the Canadas fine, if Westmount wants to but the rest of Montreal didn't, well, that sucks.

Also that would be a proposal that would be very hard for Russia to turn down, sure they could easily, but they would look like even greater shitstains on the global opinion then they do now.

However Ukraine should definitely be allowed to keep all them frozen assets because fuck Poutine and Russia for being dicks, they gots ta pay for what they did. Also they lose all their no NATO rights as far as Ukraine is concerned.

That would be both the minimum and maximum I'd accept.

Why when we got Eddie Shit

Decent musician but I still think Dina Doll played the best live Rusty Trombone in my personal history. Addict2sex's and jcpro's Virtual in Moscow brass concerto's are quite passionate though.

I have no idea what Q anon websites are of interest to you. I am
the one who needs to be informed.
Are you really going to pretend you don't know what he is implying... perhaps unfairly but still.

But Biden once had an overdue library book.
As a huge book nerd of epic proportions that sounds like heresy and there is only response to the heretic.
Exterminatus!

Franky, STOP IT!! Now Sir Wyatt is going to lump you in with Bev and me. After all, you're a Canadian I assume, and do not understand the reality, nuances, and complexity of American politics.
Frank is essentially a shade of Marxist. A few years back, he was spraying these pages with anti-Western, anti-capitalism themes. He was literally getting no response here. Sharing disdain for Trump with others gave him TERB friends.

You know absolutely nothing about being a lawyer or a prosecutor, do you? You're opinion is wrong and pretty much worthless, agreed?
Then, you would have to explain to us why more counts makes for a stronger case. Perhaps while you are at it, you can explain how insulting other members makes for a stronger argument.

I have tussled with attorneys on social media. They are one of the few groups (if not the only one) who declare their occupation. Many times to present themselves as an authority on the law. Of course, we never actually know if they are attorneys or what they practiced. Attorneys from my professional dealings are like any group. They have biases. Some are stronger than others in their field.

As I mentioned before, I argued with a member a few years back about Trump's Blagojevich pardon and his oversentencing (opinion of course). The member was emphatic that U.S. prosecutors don't try to get long, unfair sentences to satisfy political demands. I'm not sure why he took that stance, but he was determined to make his point blasting the Trump pardon. One reference to the former Illinois Governor Ryan's sentencing in a far more egregious case shut down the discussion.

So what's the point of this story? One, it goes to the matter of what U.S. prosecutors do and don't do. They are influenced by politics. Two, it also demonstrates that it helps to be an American and have more context of events and history beyond recent headlines.
