Have an another question for you my American friends.
Let me start with some examples from Denmark. We have Impeachment even here in our Parliament called Rigsret(=National court) Mostly a Minister get a næse(=nose) Which is a warning. Do you have similar in US political system, where a Minister/President have done something wrong, but not so severe that it lead to an Impeachment.. Instead this person gets a warning ? Markus

Right, they can still hold office because they were elected by actual voters.
They can still vote on bills, but they can't sell their own bills or add anything or hold any real power. One of the keys to a Federalist system, the people who rise to high power have a LOT to lose if they screw up. |

You've already said no trial or actual proof is needed. Here's another thought. If Hunter is guilty of crimes and Daddy Joe had knowledge of that? Accessory after the fact comes into play doesn't it? Last edited by Jeff-Groves; 09-16-23 at 12:20 PM. |

Political witch hunts. Deep state. Favoritism. Nepotism. All a reality on Capitol Hill and Pennsylvania Ave. These people are the untouchables. Unless of course they want someone to be touched. Usually, an individual that will expose them. But take whatever Fox or CNN feeds you. It is all for dollars and nothing more. They do not care about the little guy. They do not care about your future. They simply care about a vote. College loan forgiveness. Are you kidding me? It is for votes. The reality of government. It is a business with 435 CEO plus two additional CEO looking working towards their yearend bonus.
BTW, 401K and retirement plans, it's all a fricken scam. We take all of the risk. The government takes zero risk. Your employer takes zero risk. The stock market is a crapshoot. Under Biden, the past 3 years the market has been a stagnate cesspool. Go for the long-haul in the market I'm told. Sadly, you and I have so many days to work and save for retirement. And to add, in 5 years SS will only be able to pay 80% of what a retiree is due from SS. Yep, smoke and mirrors. Every politician kicks the can down the road. But hey, their retirement and healthcare plan are golden. Vote who you want. It amounts to nothing but a hill of beans.

Yes, but only after years of environmental impact studies and litigation to determine how many beans you’re allowed. Then they’ll set-up a tax schedule to take most of the beans back and give them to someone else.

Oh. I guess part of the studies and the information learned will prove there was never a hill of beans they could assign a quantitative amount to/or of.
Thus I may have imagened a hill much larger then My Over Lords. |

Biden is about to give the hill of beans that we'll never see to Zelenskyy with what I'm sure is a very nice kickback for "The Big Guy".

This is exactly what I believe. I'd imagine at least 40 million US taxpayers believe it too.
