In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the RULES.

    Other than Nixon who tried to advance his immunity theory, no other presidents have had to claim immunity or claim the fifth, only trump.

    Not true. There have been cases where a convicted person was offered a pardon and turned it down. Here's the reason why: Accepting the pardon effectively renders the 5th amendment null and void. They can now be compelled to testify against others because they cannot self-incriminate. SCOTUS...

    Trump had four years to prosecute Obama, or at least prosecute those who carried out his orders. He did not seek anything resembling prosecution - of anybody. Why do you suppose that is? Are you arguing murder and conspiracy to murder are covered under presidential immunity?

    And it fell under what constitutional mandate? Where is the requirement that the president call for protests? He was the one who called his devoted followers to be there that day. That was a requirement of the office?

    Other than Nixon who tried to advance his immunity theory, no other presidents have had to claim immunity or claim the fifth, only trump.

    Trump had four years to prosecute Hillary, yet, he did not. Why not? And if Trump had done what Biden did (i.e. self-disclose and immediately returned all documents), he would not be prosecuted for obstruction and defying a subpoena. They would have taken custody of the documents and that...

    Nixon argued presidential immunity? I must have missed that. I know he argued executive privilege and lost that argument. Ford must have thought that Nixon could be prosecuted, else why would he issue a pardon? Nixon must have thought he could be prosecuted, else why accept the pardon?

    Trump Lawyer Says Having Political Rival Killed Could Constitute ‘Official’ Presidential Act

    It sounds to me, based on yesterday's SCOTUS hearing, the vote will be 5-4 in favor of Trump. The argument will be that the Constitution provides the only remedy for inhibiting a president is impeachment and removal from office. That is all. They will rule that the president cannot be...

    Arizona state House passes bill to repeal 1864 abortion ban after several failed attempts

    BINGO! And thank you. I am not and never have been pro-life. I believe private healthcare decisions are the domain of the individual, the family, and the physicians. Politicians and judges need to to STFU!

    Trump’s 2020 'fake electors' charged with state crimes in Arizona

    They would have to rule that Trump, and only Trump, has full immunity. Otherwise, Biden has his ass shipped off to GiTMO never to be heard from again.

    Do you support the anti-Israel protests around the country?

    Back in the 1960s and 70s, the airports in Israel prominently displays signs to passengers that read: If you are taken as a hostage, Israel will not negotiate for your release. There were many terrorist attacks against Israeli planes, groups, etc. during that era. What wasn't on the signs...

    Trump’s 2020 'fake electors' charged with state crimes in Arizona

    Don't hold your breath. Mycroft has been telling us there is a mountain of evidence that the 2020 election was stolen, but he refuses to show it to us or to a court. I expect the same in this AZ case. He'll just spout nonsense about overwhelming evidence and will never reveal any of it. It's...

    Trump’s 2020 'fake electors' charged with state crimes in Arizona

    So now you're saying the defendants didn't do what what the indictments say? The prosecutors just made it all up? That will come out in the trial, then right? They got nothing to worry about.

    Do you support the anti-Israel protests around the country?

    Remember this: Those poor Palestinians who are taking the brunt of the war are not welcome in the neighboring Arab countries and never have been. Palestinians are considered the lowest of the low of all Muslims. They are the pawns in all of this. The sooner they realize that their Arab...
