2019-10-17 at 7:50 PM UTC in How's that Trump Impeachment going
Originally posted by GAAAAALM The one that happens the minute he leaves office and is no longer immune to the obstruction charges and whatever else he's gonna be racking up with the ongoing impeachment trial.
It is not an impeachment trial. That would take place in the Senate. It's not even an impeachment. It's an impeachment inquiry and an improper one at that. The current house rules in impeachment inquiry require that the inquiry be held by the House Judiciary Committee. This farce is being held by the House Intelligence Committee. The reason for that is because Pelosi knows that Nadler is a lame duck after his last performance. So she handed the ball to the pencil neck who fucked up even worse than Nadler when he entered false evidence into the committee's official record with his "parody" stunt. Now they are holding closed hearings and won't release the transcripts because they know it will destroy the entire bullshit narrative. -

Was he supposed to stop the rally and call out the National Guard? Maybe he should have declared martial law? Keeping peace in city streets is the job of the local police and their liberal anti-trump mayor. By your logic everything anti-trump rioters do is not their fault but Trump's fault. That is the problem with your generation. You were taught nothing is your fault. -

Originally posted by RottenRobert Fox News Poll: Record support for Trump impeachment
A new high of 51 percent wants Trump impeached and removed from office, another 4 percent want him impeached but not removed, and 40 percent oppose impeachment altogether. In July, 42 percent favored impeachment and removal, while 5 percent said impeach but don’t remove him, and 45 percent opposed impeachment.
Since July, support for impeachment increased among voters of all stripes: up 11 points among Democrats, 5 points among Republicans, and 3 among independents. Support also went up among some of Trump’s key constituencies, including white evangelical Christians (+5 points), white men without a college degree (+8), and rural whites (+10).
Those same polls said he would lose in 2016. -

A lot of people bring up that thing about Bernie about how he said 'white people don't know what it's like to be poor' but he was telling a story and reciting something that someone said to him.
Direct quote, or shut the fuck up.
you whine a lot.

Originally posted by -SpectraL I'm smoking this exotic strain called Alien OG right now. Pretty expensive, at $135 for a half, but it has a great kick and a great taste to it. The exhale is pretty close to those '80's hashes like Kashmir. More of an Indica buzz, with that band forming around the eyes pretty heavily.
Any of the Alien strains are good. I had Alien Rock Candy from an online vendor once that was fantastic. -

They'll just inject him with some infants blood, give him a few shocks, and he'll be right as rain. My friend Hilly has died several times and it hasn't even slowed her down.

2019-10-03 at 3:30 AM UTC in Hunter and Joe's Adventures in the UkraineAs the enormous bulk of the western corporate media has had a laser focus on whether Donald Turnip did anything wrong in asking Ukrainian President Zelensky to either release or reopen a previously-shelved investigation into Joe Biden's son Hunter, I think it's worth digging into what was going on that was being investigated in the first place. The information on this matter is DENSE AS FUCK so I'll try to keep it concise.
Back in 2015, US Vice President Joe Biden pressured the notoriously corrupt Ukrainian then-President Petro "Porky" Poroshenko into firing his chief prosecutor, Viktor Shokin. He'd made it a condition of the release of roughly $1 billion in IMF loans and openly bragged about it after the fact. The question that's been brought to the fore is why Biden desperately wanted that prosecutor fired - with the two sides in the US arguing over whether Viktor was fired for being 'too soft' on corruption, or whether he was fired for investigating the 'wrong kind' of corruption, namely Joe Biden's son Hunter and his activities relating to the Ukrainian gas company Burisma.
Viktor himself made a statement on his 'firing' (he was forced to voluntarily resign). While Porky admitted to him that he was being forced out due to pressure from Joe, the official reason given was that the prosecutor's office had 'lost the public's trust', which is an extremely ironic thing to come out of Porky's mouth given his abysmal approval ratings.
Viktor goes on to say that he strongly believes his dismissal was tied to an ongoing investigation into Burisma Holdings, where Joe's son Hunter had been hired as a salaried board member (not an investor). He reports that on several occasions Porky had asked him to either reduce the scope of or end investigations entirely.
“In my conversations with Poroshenko at the time, he was emphatic that I should cease my investigations regarding Burisma. When I did not, he said that the U.S. were refusing to release the USD$ 1 billion promised to Ukraine. He said that he had no choice.”
Assuming that he was telling the whole truth, the question then becomes, what was actually going on at Burisma, and was Hunter actually doing anything wrong?
Burisma changed hands a lot in the early 2010s, but it's difficult to trace - according to anti-corruption efforts at the time, the government was obfuscating ownership information of most of the larger companies and holders of rights to natural resources, specifically coal and LPG. From what could be gleaned, there was an 'official' owner and a 'real' owner who was not publicly affiliated with the company, typically someone who was either politically connected (often the Maidan-deposed Yanukovych’s family) or one of the longstanding oligarchs.
You can read about it yourself in a link I'll include at the bottom, but the best guess as to who really owned Burisma was the infamous Ihor Kolomoisky. The Zlochevskys, who the Western media largely paints as the owners of Burisma, founded the company but later (prior to Hunter's appointment) sold all of their shares to Kolomoisky's Privat Group. This is important because Kolomoisky is deeply involved in Ukrainian politics, financing both Porky and Zelenksy in no small measure. Digging too deeply into Burisma would lead directly to the President's boss.
This is important to the Biden question because Kolomoisky is a jedi. About as jediy as they come really, which makes his control of Burisma a difficult optic in the highly fascistic order that crystallised after the Maidan - most of the volunteer battalions that Kolomoisky himself raised were ultranationalist groups who were fashioned after - and idolised - the UPA, a pro-nazi Ukrainian organisation that operated during WWII. As a result, it seems that he tried to transform the image of Burisma to that of an American organisation, going so far as to appoint a conveyor belt of American businessmen to the board, such as Hunter Biden among others (many of whom were connected to other US politicians). Hunter and his (business) partner, Devon Archer, were reportedly paid around $3 million for their year of 'service'.
I'm getting bored so I'll just summarise the rest:
1. The main reason Viktor was fired appears not to be related to Biden specifically, but that he was originally directed to investigate Burisma in order to go after Zlochevsky, who was connected to the deposed (Pro-Russian) government of Yanukovych. He started to follow the trail to Kolomoisky, who is connected to the coup-imposed (Pro-US) government of Poroshenko, and US foreign policy could not allow one of their most important domestic supporters to fall under a federal corruption investigation.
2. Kolomoisky is well-known for large-scale corruption; in some circumstances he's used military operations as a pretext to clear inhabitants from land in order to start fracturing and oil-drilling operations.

I spent a month at rehab without my phone and I did not miss it for one second. It was wonderful. Basically you stay observant of everything around you and everyone and you talk to everybody about everything and it's awesome. You get a lot more bookreading, journaling if you do that, and other things done. People used to carry books around with them you know? -
