Trump is undermining the judiciary

Hilarious !

LOL, nice 180 degree flip flop, ya idiot.

Your (and Trump's) usual rant is that all the judges that rule in a way you dont like are liberal zealots with no right to oppose Trump's agenda.

Changed your mind about that now? Or just don't quite get what undermine means?

[Optional]

What evidence? A dictatorship? Again, what evidence? Undermining judiciary? Annexing neighbors? Invading other countries? where do you get all that nonsense from?

Must be AI fake videos of Trump lambasting judges, and ranting about taking on Canada as the 51st state, or saying he will take Greenland and Panama in any way necessary??

Silly me to be sucked in by the fake news of him saying those things

Trump or anyone else can criticize anyone they want, even judges. There are a lot of crooked judges as we are all aware.

Trump thinks Canada should be part of the US. So what. I thought this when I was in my late teens/early 20's and I still do. Many of my Canadian friends today think Canada should become the 51st State, as do I. For one, they will instantly increase their wealth just by using the stronger dollar, we can buy property a lot easier in the US, and no more border checkpoints. Win, Win , Win. What would be the downside? Of course, I haven't read or heard of any actual details of a merger. Annexing is taking a country by force and America would never do that to Canada.

The US should buy Greenland.

The Panama canal was funded by the US and then stupidly sold to Panama for $1. America ships should get a free pass through the canal but they don't and even are forced to pay higher fees than other countries. Rubio put a stop to this, among other things that where happening there. China was slowly dictating things there. Not anymore.

I am afraid you are mostly repeating things you hear on the Liberal news stations who are famous for misleading their viewers.

These people are sick. Everyone is literally Hitler to these lunatics. They are unable to use reason, logic and they have no ability to think for themselves or tell the truth.

Yeah, calling everything fascism is a communist tactic. Look up the English translation of the official name of the Berlin Wall

[guitarjosh]

You know what they say, if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck.

If people see a world leader undermining the judiciary, demonizing the press and stoking fear of outsiders, it's very natural to have them saying "Hey this looks like how dictatorships operate, this guy talks like a dictator does about annexing neighbors and invading other countries. Are we seeing the rise of an authoritarian dictatorship again here??".

or do you think everyone should stick their head in the sand and ignore that quacking, walking duck in the room???

Just dumb people that need to get as educated as you on Hitler before stating the bloody obvious do you think???



You're like a bunch of cry baby drones complaining he isn't exactly like Hitler so ignore all the quacking evidence... sheesh.

Just show some honor and ADMIT YOU WANT AND SUPPORT A DICTATORSHIP. Is it that hard? Will take a lot less of your twisting and squirming to deny the obvious everyone can see with their eyes.

Next you'll be crying that everyone should believe Scam Bondi. Ya know the highest lawmaker in the land who is supposed to work for the people, not in cahoots with the White House to trick the people.

Get some of that honor. Get a little bit more woke to whats happening in front of your own eyes. Speak some truth instead of squirming to make excuses based on esoteric historical details.

And you know what they say, all that glitters is not gold, or in this case, not everything that uses legs and its mouth to communicate is a duck.

Undermining the judiciary by saying things like

“The Supreme Court blocked my original plan to help more than 40 million working- and middle-class American students get relief, but they couldn’t stop me.”

?

It didn’t bother you when AOC called for Biden to defy the supreme court, nor did it bother you when numerous Federally elected democrats called for expanding the supreme court and pack it with a bunch of democrat activists or tried to intimidate multiple supreme court justices to resign or call for them to be impeached. It didn’t bother you when elected democrats created legislation to go after Fox News advertisers, and you loved it when Biden gave his “Red Speech”, attacking his own citizens! Imagine how outraged you’d be if Trump gave a speech like that about any of the democrats’ constituents.



Dictatorships don’t look like someone criticizing a court’s rulings or criticizing the coverage they’re getting. It looks like changing the laws so you can arrest the opposition’s leader. It looks like kicking him arbitrarily off ballots. It looks like claiming you cherish democracy over everything, and then filing thousands of lawsuits every election year to kick left wing third party candidates off the ballot so you have the best chance of winning. It looks like banning free speech on the grounds that it’s misinformation or hate speech. It looks like the democrat party.

I think you need to get back to reality and see who the real monsters are.

We’re not saying he’s not exactly like Hitler, we’re saying he’s nothing like Hitler, because he’s not. The democrats are much closer to the authoritarians than Trump, but the left always claims they’re fighting fascism. According to the left, the Berlin Wall wasn’t put up to keep people from fleeing the leftwing paradise/hellscape they created, it was actually to keep fascism from seeping into East Berlin, which is why they called it the Antifascist Protection Rampart.

Why don’t you just show some honor and admit that nothing Trump is doing or saying is what bothers you, it’s that Trump and the GOP are doing it to the leftwing constituency groups, and that is what sets you off? Is it that difficult? It will take a lot less of you being a blatant hypocrite than you currently are, although that’s not saying much. You know how the left is now falsely claiming that Trump is denying due process rights to people? It’s the democrats that came up with the notion of misinterpreting the Constitution to get around it, thereby denying any and all rights to hundreds-of-millions of Americans. Again, that doesn’t bother you at all.

[Optional]

It didn’t bother you when AOC called for Biden to defy the supreme court

Why do you think that?

And why would it matter? Are you suggesting that whatever AOC does is the benchmark for what is ok for Trump to do??

AOC is an extremist idiot btw. As is MTG. And Biden is a dishonorable POS, just like Trump is.

What does it matter if another scumbag exists? Unless you think the lowest common denominator of scum bags is the level your guy should use as his benchmark??


But back to the actual point you are trying so hard to avoid...

"do you think everyone should stick their head in the sand and ignore that quacking, walking duck in the room???"

Everything you said is `100% spot on, I wish I had the ability to express it like you.

The Left will go on forever about J6 will completely ignoring the 574 riots the summer before all over the country, where people were killed and hundreds of people, including cops, were injured. They will defend these thugs and even raise bail money for them, and when a nice kid like Rittenhouse decides to protect his town against these thugs and the try to murder him, the Left will crucify him for defending himself from being murdered while taking the side of the criminals and the pedofiles. They always do. We saw the moron who flew to El Salvador to try and bring back a criminal human trafficker gang member.

If I had one major criticism of Trump, it was in his first term where he didn't deploy the military against thugs and the transtifa losers. The Federal courthouse in Portland was firebombed for over 100 straight days, cop stations were abandoned while being burned to the ground, and mayors defended these thugs. Trump obviously learned that lesson this time round.

Bongino has earned a reputation of being truthful so I believe him if he said it was a suicide. I too believed there was a cover up. If I remember correctly, so did Bongino. At least he had questions like most of us.

As far as the Epstein list, that's a different story. I will wait a little longer before I comment on it. Today, I will admit it doesn't look good. I hear that it could be delayed because some of the names on the list could be linked to powerful people in the Middle East. If that is true, then it could fukk up the remaining peace accords Trump is working on over there. Who knows why. It could turn up to be a necessary thing to delay the release of the list. So long as it is made public, I am willing to entertain the idea that there is a good reason why.

Promises were made to release that info and she should keep her word. I am just as interested as you are probably but I am willing to hold off for a bit. In the meantime, khicks can keep posting pics of Trump and Epstein pretending he's on the list which we all know he isn't. Trump thought he was a creep once he knew who he was. Trump kicked him out and he was the first and only one to cooperate.

Watched an interview with Michael Wolff the other day. He said a bunch of things I had never heard before. Which seemed very weird to me that such "important" info was never reported. if it was true. You should look for it. Will make you feel a lot more rubbed the wrong way about many people from all sides of politics.


As far as the suicide. The amateurishly edited jail video offered as raw unedited video has me scratching my head. If the govt wanted to fake something surely they could do a better job of it. WTF is going on there I guess we will never know but it's very strange.

I'm an unabashed centrist, so if you make any policy to rock the boat too much I am likely to think you're extreme.

But to answer, I think she takes almost every social issue and comes up with an extreme position on it compared to DEM centrists. Often a position that does little more than divide both her own party as well as everyone else.

For example, calling herself the champion for low cost housing and coming up with an unworkable policy to make laws that demonize property owners as bad people and disincentivize investment in rental property that could only increase rents.

I think what initially turned me off her was her opportunistic reaction to some GOP guy calling her names, and proposing laws that demonize all men. Demonization always seems to be her MO on other issues I have cared enough to have noticed from her over the years. She may be on the right (correct) side of many social issues but she chooses to grab onto the extreme end of the left opinion range every time, for her own self promotion instead of a genuine plan to institute policy. She is just as disingenuous as MTG in mirror image imho.

Democrats would be better off to get behind "radical common sense" reps like Souzzi. AOC is like a boat anchor to the party in comparison.

Why U.S. Beef Prices Keep Scaling New Heights

• The lowest U.S. cattle inventories in 73 years have pushed U.S. beef prices to all-time highs in recent months.
• Reduced slaughter is forecast to limit beef production in the months ahead and into 2026.
• Tariffs and a ban on cattle shipments from Mexico could crimp otherwise strong beef imports that have helped pick up the slack.

U.S. beef cattle supplies have reached their lowest point since the Truman Administration, propelling beef prices to all-time highs that likely will persist in the months ahead.

Covid-19 pandemic disruptions, drought in the western U.S. and meatpacking industry consolidation all have played a role in declining cattle inventories in recent years.

Now, with supplies down, tariffs and Mother Nature may limit beef and cattle imports, maintaining upward pressure on prices. This week, the U.S. reinstituted a ban on cattle imports from Mexico because of concerns about screwworm, a flesh-eating larvae that can spread throughout cattle herds.

Prices Surge


Ground beef prices reached an average of $5.98 per pound in May, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That's a 16% increase from the same month a year ago and 46% higher than four years ago. A broader measure of retail beef prices, including steaks and roasts, from the U.S. Department of Agriculture shows a 17% increase since the beginning of 2023.

Beef prices that have repeatedly scaled new all-time highs this year directly reflect the declining availability of cattle for slaughter. As of Jan. 1, U.S. cattle inventories were at the lowest level since 1952. Inventories have declined steadily since the pandemic.

As consumer demand has remained steady, the lower supply has pushed up prices at cattle auctions and prices for cattle fattened at feed yards. Feeder cattle and live cattle prices have surged 21% and 14% so far this year, and average prices for slaughter steers have reached record highs.

Judges are supposed to rule using the laws. Not invent a reason to interfere with the president.

Not all judges and journalists are good. In fact, many are crooked. One judge out of thousands can't undermine the decision of the duly elected president of the country. Why even have elections then? The SCOTUS already ruled on it. Are you saying that some appointed judge from bumfukk Rhode Island can decide to .... oh let's say ... block troop movement orders by the commander in chief on the battlezone somewhere?

These are radicals. Not people doing good or check and balances. These are political activists. How many lies do CNN have to tell before no one watches them anymore? Apparently these isn't a limit. They aren't journalists anymore. Is Copper Anderson a journalist still? No he isn't. Is 60 minutes a trusted news program like it used to be? Fuk no. Anyone can see it. They are radical biased political activists, and they were just caught editing Kamala's interview to make her look good. Which, btw, is impossible. One idiot judge decides to make a name for himself, taints the entire justice system.

I guess yes, I am saying some judge from bumfukk RI can rule whatever he decides to rule in his jurisdiction.

There is a robust appeals system in the USA designed to make sure any radical or corrupt judgments are not allowed to stand.

In fact wouldn't you say that the judicial system has pretty much handed out the results you think it should have in most Trump cases?

You might hate that prosecutors bought cases but I really don't think you can really have too many complaints about many actual judgements or how the system played out. Therefore the attack on the judiciary looks a bit orchestrated for some other reason...

Beef prices are at an all-time high. Here's why it's gotten so expensive

Shoppers are seeing record high beef prices at the grocery store. That’s in part because the number of cattle in the U.S. is at an all-time low, while consumer demand has remained strong.


In the past, ranchers used to worry whether people would eat beef.

That’s not a concern anymore, according to Mark Gardiner. Today, he said producers like himself are seeing the greatest demand in history.

“Beef has differentiated itself as the protein of choice, not only in the U.S., but worldwide,” he said.

The fourth-generation producer, who runs Gardiner Angus Ranch in southwest Kansas with his family, believes that’s largely because of the quality of beef consumers get today.

But even as beef prices hit record highs in May, demand does not appear to be slowing.

The average price of a pound of ground beef hit a record $5.98 in May, according to the most recent data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. That’s a 16% increase from a year before, and with a short supply of cattle, experts say they don’t expect prices to fall anytime soon.

How expensive is ground beef?

The average cost of a pound of ground beef has been climbing toward $6 over the past few years. The average price was $5.98 in May, the highest ever, according to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
