Granny Danger Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Given the apparent litigious nature of the USA I always assumed that slander and liable would be more easily and directly challenged. It certainly doesn’t look like it. I also assumed that First Amendment rights wouldn’t apply if there was not basis for the allegations; again it looks like I’m wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not convinced the lack of legal action against him is to do with the strength of the law as much as political expediency. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, if you fancy finding out the telephone numbers of any of the major players in Ukrainegate, Rudy Giuliani’s Twitter feed is worth a follow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who thinks that actual crackhead Hunter Biden getting a job on the board of Ukrainian gas company had nothing to do with his father being VP should not be allowed out alone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Henry Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 How many more times, nothing will happen. Trump will be in the Whitehouse until he loses an election or dies. That’s my point. He’s committed any number of criminal offences, any one of which should be enough to see him impeached, but Ted Cruz and his ilk will continue to forego their oaths in the name of $$$. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That guy’s press conference was debunked in real time because the idiot “marine” left his Instagram on public settings, and his scar was detailed in three year old photos. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Its a bit of a damning indictment into just how fucked the UK is that despite the absolute crisis the US is in the dollar is still about as strong as it’s ever been against the pound, at least in recent years. Then you look at the absolute magnitude of whats going on their and its still not enough to strengthen the pound? Wtaf? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
