Judge Blocks Trump’s Deployment of National Guard in Portland, Ore.

As long as all MATW does is lose power good

Police Chiefs sitting on their house and not doing their damn job so therefore crimes are not reported doesn't mean there's a reduction in crime it just means there's a reduction in reporting.

There are lies there are damn lies and then there are statistics.

And then there are Trump ass kissers who refuse to accept facts.

So if fewer crimes are reported because police didn't respond does that mean fewer crimes are committed?

You're hilarious. And obviously not living in Portland.

If you're asking that question, there are plenty of other websites that aren't dedicated to debate :)
 
Probably one of the most boring videos on youtube right now.

What is going on in Portland? Live look at Oregon's largest city, starting from ICE facility​

explain when we should not take Trump literally?
How do you know when he is telling the truth or passing on bs.

take Trump's statements on prescription drugs and he is going to lower the price by 1500% or 600%.
Of course a sane person knows that is bs. Yet Trump keeps saying the same thing. Is it joke for him? Does it mean he has no plans to lower drug costs?
Hard to tell .

That this forum doesn’t require debating is quite obvious from everything that you post. It isn’t in their rules. The only rules have to do with behavior toward others, not debating ability or even requiring anyone to debate at all.

So he disguised his bald-faced lies (there is a crime problem in Portland that is beyond the ability of local law enforcement to handle) with absurd exaggerations? And that makes them okay?

That's what you're going with? Really?

As usual, as he has done countless times before, such as on Jan 6 2020, Trump is deliberately provoking violence.

Chicago’s new lawsuit against imminent National Guard deployment paints a city besieged by disproportionate federal force, its inhabitants angered by the killing of an undocumented resident, pain inflicted gleefully and needlessly by federal law enforcement and the looming specter of further occupation.​
​
“Among other things, Trump and Noem have sent a surge of SWAT-tactic trained federal agents to Illinois to use unprecedented, brute force tactics for civil immigration enforcement; federal agents have repeatedly shot chemical munitions at groups that included media and legal observers outside the Broadview facility; and dozens of masked, armed federal agents have paraded through downtown Chicago in a show of force and control,” it said. “The community’s horror at these tactics and their significant consequences have resulted in entirely foreseeable protests.”​
​
It details Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, on a visit to the sole ICE facility near Chicago, choosing to enter and exit through paths congested with protesters, the better to spark a confrontation with law enforcement. It includes photos of heavily armed officers boating down the Chicago River, supposedly securing upscale sections of the city’s downtown. It tells of the killing of longtime resident and father Silverio Villegas González by DHS officers, who initially claimed that they’d acted in self defense (an account quickly disproven).​

Just to be clear, you don't seem to be debating at all. It's not a question of style.

It's not a rules violation to not engage in debate. It's just weird to come on here and expect your opponents to prove your case for you. Like, why are you even here? It's like showing up to a marathon in a rickshaw, hoping someone else will pull you to the finish line, lol.

If that's what you want find someone that plays the way you want them to play and talk to them if you think I'm breaking a rule report me to the admin

And if you want someone to play with you by your set of rules go find that someone.

Good thing I don't expect that.

Other reasons. Debate isn't how you find the truth that's how you find out who's the most witty. Not that interested in how someone who thinks they're witty feels about what I say.

No it's like showing up at a marathon in a rickshaw having no interest in the race.

You desperately want me to be interested in the race but it's a racist stupidity and egotistical nonsense.

I'm interested in something else sorry.

Why agree it's not a crime problem it's a lack of policing problem

That if crimes are not reported they don't get in the statistics yes that's called reality.

Debate is what this forum was created for. You don’t find truth by stating your unsubstantiated opinions and getting personal with whoever disagrees on a politcal debate forum. You have no idea what truth is because you don’t even know what a fact is. Your opinions are not facts. You never post facts.
