@coldjoint,
Redistribution of wealth by carbon tax.

Oh get a grip — you really think the 1% will give up any of the wealth they're already actively redistributing to themselves?

And the death of the economy.

Haven't you read the news? It's not the "death of the economy" — it's the economy of death, where arms sale total well over a trillion dollars, and natural ecosystems, non-technological societies, and the lives and health of working people are sacrificed on a regular basis.

That is globalism at work.

Globalism isn't the problem. Corporatism and unbridled greed are.

They very easily could be forced into that situation depending on their assets and politics. If you think that can't happen you are naive.

Well, when Trump brags about grabbing women without their consent because he's a millionaire and can do whatever he wants,
That is not an accurate description of his bragging.

He bragged that he could grab them and they would consent because he's a millionaire.


Wrong he brag he could assault them and due to his power they would not file any complains and so he would get away with it.

No where did he state that he would ask them for consent of any kind before or after his assaults on them.

@Olivier5,
You seem to be worried about the US, while Paris burns and people protest. Trump has a mid 40's approval rating, Marcon has about half of that approval rating. I'm guessing you love Marcon and his ideals...

Have y'all heard about the incoming NY State Attorney General, Leticia James?
She might end up being a bigger problem for 45 than even Mueller.
She has already stated that she intends to open investigations into all of 45's financial dealings, and those of his family. She has also stated that she wants to look into state charges against those who 45 might pardon if found guilty of federal charges.

In 2019, Trump’s legal headaches at the federal level will include Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s ongoing Russiagate investigation, the investigations of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York and the new Democratic House of Representatives—which will be able to launch all kinds of investigative committees and subpoenas. But the election of James in November presents a different type of legal headache for Trump, his family and his associates: one at the state level....

...James, in a recent interview with NBC News, was quite specific about the things she plans to investigate—including whether or not Trump’s business interests in New York City represent a violation of the U.S. Constitution’s emoluments clause, which restricts presidents and other federal politicians from receiving gifts or payments from foreign powers (for example, the Russian government).

James has said that she plans to investigate the June 9, 2016 Trump Tower meeting in New York City that was attended by Manafort, the Trump Organization’s Jared Kushner (who is married to the president’s daughter, Ivanka Trump) and Donald Trump, Jr. as well as Russian attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya and others. And New York State’s incoming attorney general also noted that she will be investigating Trump’s real estate holdings in NYC for potential illegalities.

@Walter Hinteler,


odd wording eh

it is an agreement but probably feels less friendly than an agreement

Doesn't that require the suspension of the First Amendment? You know:

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

@neptuneblue,
No suppression of the First Amendment is required in order to outlaw a group that is committing atrocities against innocent people.

REPORT: Has Robert Mueller Been Destroying Evidence?

The whole Russia investigation is to cover the tracks of the illegal operations employed by Obama's FBI, DOJ, CIA, and the MSM. Trump is the target but the evidence of the set up also must be eliminated.
Quote:
The evidence is pointing toward Robert Mueller and his team of misfits destroying evidence against key Democrats. What started as an investigation into whether the Trump camp colluded with Russia, has turned into a machine that destroys evidence which could point to Democrat corruption.

What is a 302? It’s a document created after FBI agents interview a subject detailing just what happened during the interview. These 302’s are the document you often hear members of Congress requesting. (RELATED: Michael Cohen Adviser Blows Holes in the Steele Dossier During Interview)

Interestingly, some important details surrounding former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn’s 302 seem to point to the special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe destroying or withholding evidence in its Russian “collusion” investigation.

The details of how Flynn ended up pleading guilty to making false statements to investigators is in and of itself, suspicious. On Jan. 24, 2017, just days after the inauguration, FBI agents came to the White House to talk to Flynn about his contacts with Russian officials. Flynn is expected to be sentenced this week.

Additionally, without going into a full account of what happened there, what’s important is that when Flynn’s sentencing documents were released, the date on the 302 documents was Aug. 22, 2017, according to a column posted by The Federalist last week by senior contributor Margot Cleveland. That’s nearly seven whole months after the interview happened.

Advertisers are abandoning Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson amid outrage over his remarks about immigrants making the US "poorer and dirtier" and "divided".

Over a dozen companies, including insurer Pacific Life and finance site NerdWallet, have dropped the show over Mr Carlson's controversial language.

He first made the remarks on Thursday and defended his rhetoric on Monday.

Fox News said Mr Carlson was "being threatened by far left activist groups with deeply political motives".

On his programme, Tucker Carlson Tonight, last Thursday, Mr Carlson said the US needed "more scientists and skilled engineers but that's not what we're getting".

The conservative host claimed immigration was "indefensible" economically.

"Our leaders demand that you shut up and accept this. We have a moral obligation to admit the world's poor, they tell us, even if it makes our own country poorer and dirtier and more divided."

Insurance company Pacific Life pulled advertising from Mr Carlson's show last week after facing online criticism for having an ad air after the host's immigration monologue.

"We strongly disagree with Mr Carlson's statements," Pacific Life tweeted on Friday. "We will not be advertising on Mr Carlson's show in the coming weeks as we re-evaluate our relationship with his programme."

@oralloy,
People who are demonstrably guilty of what they have been charged with, you mean. Innocence is far from the state of a huge number of Trump advisers and workers and appointees.
