What is driving Russian aggression in Ukraine? Is it Putin being Putin? I doubt it. He is not an impulsive or rash leader, and anyone paying attention should know this.
Zelensky, the Ukrainian President, seeks to deepen ties to the West and make his country stronger economically, politically, and militarily. Ukraine has expressed repeatedly that they desire to become part of NATO. A cursory glance at a map of current NATO Members explains why Russia is so intent on threatening and pressuring Ukraine to stay out of NATO. If they, Ukraine, become part of NATO, then only Belarus remains as a buffer zone. And if you've been paying attention, the people of Belarus aren't exactly pleased with their current leadership and are seeking to have a more open and democratic society.
Russia is staring down the barrel of a NATO that encompasses the entire continents of Europe and North America. That is not a position or a reality that is beneficial to their goals, so they will take the steps they deem necessary to protect their interests.
If Russia move on Ukraine, NATO will be forced to respond, which Russia is absolutely not prepared to defend against.
Well there's not a whole lot of credibility to be found anywhere today. Just my opinion on that. But if this thing is going to be be done, it has to be done correctly and has to put the result, whatever it is, beyond a shadow of a doubt.
If there is massive fraud, it will rock the very foundations of this government to it's core, and NO ONE, Democrat or Republican, will ever trust anything the government does again. Other countries like China and Russian will ascend, pointing to the corruption and failure of the US, and our international standing will vanish.
Lines that should be immediately stricken from this idea: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 1: This is asinine. This allows States to usurp or overrule legitimate, legal functions of Federal Government. It also further concentrates the power of the states over their people, e.g. NYC dictates how the entire state is run and the Federal Government is powerless to stop it. 2. No. SCOTUS is constructed the correct way. They are elected by the SENATE, who vote on behalf of the states they represent whether to confirm or not. 3. Under No Circumstances should the citizenry be allowed to form impromptu courts. That's how people get lynched based on rumors. 4. Compelling citizens to commit violence is to deny them Free Agency as granted by God. 6. Impeachment should be kept strictly within the confines of the legislative branch. The Judiciary should not be involved at all in anything remotely reeking of partisanship, lest it taint the impartial rule of law. 7. How could such a standard be devised, and enforced, when State Law usurps Federal under Line 1 of this new constitution?
I have no objection to Lines 5 & 8.
If you read the attached case, and the resulting decision, you'll note that the decision was split. Also, the authoritarian cunts had to go all the way back to English Common Law under KING EDWARD I and his successor EDWARD II prohibiting by ROYAL DECREE the carrying of weapons outside the home.
This goes to SCOTUS.
Turns out you shouldn't trust people named Jared. Jared from Subway, Jared Kushner, Jared Polis...all untrustworthy imbeciles.
Also, let's get the damn facts before we go off. The FBI, corrupt as they are, is 100% correct that a lot of people self-radicalize, and sitting at home, locked down seeing nothing but CNN and Anti-Trump hatred will condition people to be in a state of paranoia and there is no telling what will set them off. Also, it appears as though the perp's family believe he was a paranoid schizophrenic.
Did anyone actually bother to read the changes she is proposing? She is proposing changes to the style and form of the bill, as she states it would open up schools to lawsuits. She also says she won't implement it at the collegiate level, as the NCAA has rules about trannys participating and it would negatively impact South Dakota's College Athletes.
I say this with all seriousness: Memes are viewed by the Intelligence Community as an actual Weapon in the arsenal of Psychological Warfare, containing the power to de-stabilize nation states by pitting citizen against citizen.
