Quote:No doubt as Venezuela’s economy entered what could fairly be called a “collapse” starting in 2015, migration began to skyrocket, and it is indeed likely to get worse, thanks to illegal economic sanctions that Trump enacted in August 2017.
Venezuela's economy is getting worse because of continued leftist misrule, not because of any sanctions.
It is hardly illegal to place sanctions on Venezuela.
Considering all of their horrible human rights violations, these sanctions are a very good thing.

Not allowing Democrats to get away with cheating in elections is hardly stealing the elections.
@edgarblythe,
The thug in the picture believes in murdering police officers.

Maybe brave, but his advocacy for the murder of police officers is disgusting.
@oralloy,
Your constant regurgitation of lies is obscene.
@camlok,
You cannot point out a single untrue statement in anything that I've said.
@oralloy,
You only have a handful of memes, like this one, that you repeat ad nauseum. You don't even have to type, they and you are so predictable. Never any science, evidence, facts, ... . Those are anathema to you and people like you.
@camlok,
Nope. I always post facts and back up what I say.
@oralloy,
There was no evidence provided for your drivel. Same for cj.
Oh, coldjoint also fled without providing any evidence for the existence of Arab "hijackers". There is none. And there is volumes of hard science that totally makes the USGOS impossible so it can be eliminated.

Yes there is.

I've no idea what discussion you are even referring to, but I'm sure that Coldjoint has lots of facts to back his position.

Let's try to put all the boring gibberish in Blatham's thread. It actually makes it a better thread.

I think Blatham's thread is the perfect repository for endless nonsense about 9/11.
But it's possible that the moderators do not share my opinion.

Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, will stress the importance of judicial independence and teamwork during his opening statement to the Senate Judiciary Committee at his confirmation hearing Tuesday.
In the statement, excerpts of which were released by the White House, Kavanaugh stresses that he has worked to not favor prosecutors or defendants in his career, and assures senators that he will not decide cases based on policy positions.
"A good judge must be an umpire—a neutral and impartial arbiter who favors no litigant or policy. … I don’t decide cases based on personal or policy preferences. I am not a pro-plaintiff or pro-defendant judge. I am not a pro-prosecution or pro-defense judge. I am a pro-law judge," he says in the remarks.
"To me, Justice Kennedy is a mentor, a friend, and a hero," Kavanaugh added of retiring Justice Anthony Kennedy, whose seat he has been nominated to take on the court.
"As a Member of the Court, he was a model of civility and collegiality. He fiercely defended the independence of the Judiciary. And he was a champion of liberty," Kavanaugh added.
Kavanaugh, who was nominated by Trump in June to succeed Kennedy, is set to face senators Tuesday at his confirmation hearing, where he will be introduced by several top Republicans including Ohio Sen. Rob Portman (R) and former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.
Kavanaugh also appears to offer laurels to Democrats in his opening remarks and praises Merrick Garland, chief judge of the court of appeals for the D.C. circuit court, who was unsuccessfully nominated to the Supreme Court during President Obama's last year in office.
"I have served with 17 other judges, each of them a colleague and a friend, on a court now led by our superb chief judge, Merrick Garland," Kavanaugh says.
"If confirmed to the Court, I would be part of a Team of Nine, committed to deciding cases according to the Constitution and laws of the United States," he added. "I would always strive to be a team player on the Team of Nine."
Democrats had sought to block or delay Kavanaugh's nomination following the guilty plea of Trump's lawyer, Michael Cohen, last month on charges of tax and bank fraud after Cohen implicated the president in a hush money scheme before the 2016 election.
Every Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee signed a letter to chairman Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), urging him to delay the nomination over the development.
Democrats need one Republican vote to stop Kavanaugh's nomination in the Senate, assuming that every Democratic senator votes against the his nomination.

Both Repugs, your favorite band and Dems are gangsters, cj and y'all are their sheeple.
The dems didn't murder 2,996 westerners in cold blood.
@coldjoint,
You really really hate people who are honest and stand up for what is right, don't you, cj. You are your prez's boy!!
Don't you think NIKE knew this would happen? They fully understand the deep ignorance of the average American. All those plug dumb Americans who show that they have no understanding of free speech.
I guess NIKE is simply saying that it doesn't want to do business with Nazis anymore.
