    RE: Michael Cohen testimony: lame-ass as Stormy's? or worse?posted in Politics & DebateCohen openly told court he'd lie in court: Blanche: Did you mean it when you said revenge is a dish best served cold? Cohen: Yes, sir. Blanche: You were willing to lie under oath if it affects your personal life, correct? Cohen: I don’t understand your question. Blanche: You testified under oath months ago that you were willing to lie if it affects your personal life, correct? Cohen: Yes, sir. Blanche: So I’m asking the same question to you now: would you still be willing to lie if it affects your personal life? Bragg prosecutor: Objection! Merchan: Objection sustained. Blanche: Would you be willing to lie if it affects you personally? Cohen: Yes, sir.

 Stormy admitted to running extortion schemes on other celebrities. Looks like - maybe not proven yet, but looks like - Cohen brought in Stormy, to do extortion scheme on Trump, where Cohen could skim too. I doubt - never say never, but I doubt that Trump banged Stormy. It's Trump's word vs hers.......... and at this point, Trump is DEF more credible.

    RE: Muslims hate gays, but rape boysposted in Politics & Debate@raphjd said in Muslims hate gays, but rape boys: Most trans people killed in the US are killed because of sex. Not their sex, but them having sex without telling their partner, paid or otherwise, that they are trans True. & one has to pause on it It doesn't justify murder & I condemn the murderer. That said - What kind of person lies about something so basic? Worth a very small action, eg. drink in face.

    RE: Russia Must Lose the Warposted in Politics & Debate...and accurate. Meanwhile what @lololulu19 said was accurate too: Uh... Russia is not and cannot afford to lose that war. ....as they've made clear for decades. If necessary, they will nuke Ukraine. They are already training for that. If Ukraine had nukes (they had them, but gave them up because their government was, and still is, so unstable that they could not trust themselves with nukes) they also would use them to avoid defeat. Which refers to POST-Soviet situation, 1990s & on to 2000s. "Budapest Memorandum" - IYKYK or - if you don't know - if you refuse to know, if you insist on stay ignorant - then you're @jaroonn  By the way, Chernobyl is in Kiev in Ukraine. That was Ukraine's incompetent gift to Europe. The US is sending Ukraine $60 billion, and Ukraine is asking for 150,000 NATO troops. If they get them before Trump is there to rescue the situation from senile Joe, you will have WW3. What part of that is outdated? Only this: USA "aid" is well over $100 billion by now.

    Zelensky term is over. Will he stay, illegally? (yes)posted in Politics & DebateBBC, USA media etc claim it's OK - because he's "popular"  and................ wait for it.......... Ukrainians would rather skip elections. and................ wait for it.......... Ukrainians would rather skip elections.https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn007p39zdzo It's called lying. They have poll numbers but remember, Ukrainians "vote with their feet", flee & resist draft. Ukraine conscripts people at gunpoint. Even @jaroonn who loves war & is near (he says), won't volunteer. That's how "popular". USA peeps can imagine this equivalent. - 
President Lincoln, in Civil War, cancels Election of 1864 
- 
March 20 1865, he should be out 
- 
Lincoln doesn't care, carries on, won't even ask SCOTUS to clarify, & no elections allowed until Lincoln says 
 History records, Lincoln was thought dictator by some & assassinated......after he did much less. The Constitution of Ukraine is not archaic; it was written considering global state-building experiences, including the experience of avoiding a power vacuum. The Constitution, to simplify, is essentially an instruction manual for the application of power in a particular country. Therefore, it must account for problematic moments, such as the impossibility of holding elections. And the Constitution of Ukraine does consider this, although there are some ambiguities: it is not entirely clear whether the president can remain in office even after the end of his term until a new one is elected (a norm that exists) or whether he should be replaced by the speaker of the Verkhovna Rada (another norm that also exists). This is the crux of the legitimacy problem. The Constitutional Court could provide clarification. And Vladimir Putin subtly mocked Zelensky on this issue during the final press conference in China. When asked about the legitimacy of the Ukrainian president after May 20, Putin stated that the answer should be given by Ukraine's political and legal system, including the Constitutional Court. The irony of the situation is that Zelensky does not appeal to the Constitutional Court. Why not? Because he was set up by the Americans. In 2020, the Constitutional Court of Ukraine clashed with the president over the powers of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU). NABU, an external management body for the country, was basically directly subordinate to Washington D.C. and had overlapping powers with practically every law enforcement agency. The Constitutional Court of Ukraine found this contradictory and significantly curtailed their powers. The head of the world's most independent country immediately received a hefty kick from Washington with a threat to cut off financial aid, echoed by the IMF. As a result, Zelensky was in conflict with the Constitutional Court of Ukraine for a year and a half, issuing decrees to dissolve it and dismiss the chairman, although he does not have such rights under the Constitution. The Constitutional Court annulled these decrees, and so on. The conflict subsided but did not end with the start of hostilities. And now the president of Ukraine is simply afraid to seek clarification from the court on constitutional norms because the answer is unpredictable. .....and, afraid to seek election - because, until Blinken & Americans have enough rigging in place, he'd lose.

 Bonus: "Forget ‘Never Trumpers’ — More Voters Now Say They’ll Never Vote For Biden" Among likely voters living in six key swing states, 51% say there’s “not really any chance” they’d vote for Biden, compared to just 46% saying the same thing about former President Donald Trump, according to a May poll conducted by The New York Times and Siena College.
