Tracker Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 Trump baselessly accused Joe Scarborough of murder after the MSNBC host called him a “little baby” “When will they open a Cold Case on the Psycho Joe Scarborough matter in Florida?” Trump tweets TRAVIS GETTYS MAY 12, 2020 4:06PM (UTC) This article originally appeared on Raw Story President Donald Trump accused MSNBC's Joe Scarborough of murder — and urged authorities to open a cold case investigation — after the "Morning Joe" host called him a "little baby" about 20 minutes earlier. Trump has lobbed allegations against Scarborough, a former friend turned daily critic, related to the death of one of his congressional staffers in 2001, including as recently as last week.

There is when they are subpoenaed by congress. This issue isnt whether they;re allowed to ask, its whether Trump is allowed to say no. The reason its at SCOTUS is because every level of judiciary has said he cannot say no. You do know that, dont you? Again, you're defending the guy you claim you dont like and cant defend. lol Edited May 12, 2020 by The Unknown Poster Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It worked for her, as it did for Reagan when he ordered the invasion of Grenada to oust the few dozen engineers from Cuba who were working to update Grenada's infrastructure. Everyone forgot the Lebanon disaster. Thus he is a danger to other nations as well. Well he did lob some Tomahawks into Syria so technically that was a military incursion of some sort.

Under Canadian law, and I am not sure if it applies in the Excited States, if an action is legally questionable but allowed to continue unchallenged, it becomes precedent and is referred as a convention. Kicking the question down the road would be the worst of all possible outcomes- it would justify Trump's actions but leave the door open for a Democratic president to be prosecuted.

But the House Intelligence committee has an obvious need for the information. And while they'd likely find that a higher standard should exist when it involves the President, the Manhatten DA has surely reached that standard. They could kick back on that one. But they still have the Paula Jones precedent to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats not really their job. They're not deciding if Congress has a right to ask. Congress has the right under the constitution. It was inherent as a check and balance. SCOTUS is deciding whether Trump and/or the entities involved can refuse. You're twisting this to make it about Congress when it's about Trump. You like to bring up Clinton so if you want to use a witch hunt over a BJ as the standard by which Congress can investigate a President, that wont turn out well for your boy.

And yeah, theres a great book, I think Toobin write it, about the witch hunt into Clinton. They would have impeached him for parking tickets if they had to. Its funny because the Clintons are probably the most investigated politicians in America and yet...nothing. If Trump had to stand up to a fraction of the same scrutiny he'd be in jail for several lifetimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 (edited) Justice may yet be served I guess this means, even if it’s dismissed, that some other opinions, perhaps scathing, may get on the record and widely heard.

do or die Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 As predicted, it didn't take the Trump mouthpieces on Fox - Carlson, Hannity and Ingraham.... long to crank on Dr. Fauci, after his testimony yesterday, calling him a buffoon, dictator and Democratic enabler. Also praising Rand Paul as the person who should be trusted to deliver the straight goods on the virus!! Hard to make this stuff up.....but somehow Fox manages to do it.

pigseye Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Uh oh, Quote On Wednesday morning, the president declared victory on Twitter: "Big Congressional win in California for Mike Garcia, taking back a seat from the Democrats. This is the first time in many years that a California Dem seat has flipped back to a Republican. Also, Tom Tiffany beat his Democrat rival BIG in Wisconsin. Two great Congressional WINS!"

Howard Stern: Trump ‘despises’ his own voters and would be ‘disgusted' President Donald Trump wasn’t always a far-right Republican and an ally of the Christian Right. The Trump of the 1980s and 1990s was more of a center-right Blue Dog Democrat, and in 2004, he told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer that “the economy does better under the Democrats” than it does under Republicans. Regardless, Trump has remade himself as the GOP’s leading far-right culture warrior. And according to shock jock Howard Stern, Trump’s base are the type of people he “despises the most.” Stern has known Trump for many years and interviewed him on his radio show (which now airs on SiriusXM) in the past. The New York Daily News reports that Stern recently told listeners that Trump would be “disgusted” by the type of voters who now support him.

17to85 Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Trump is one of those guys who has money but is still shunned by the upper class because he completely lacks class. That's who he desperately wants the approval of, instead he has to settle for Jimbo and his fellow racist white trash losers.
