My conscience is telling me Trump, not a fan and I usually vote Democrat but just can’t vote for Biden. More of you are moving over to the independent or non party affiliation side of things and it’s nice to see.

I think both sides and candidates suck and I hate that I'll be forced to vote for one.

Nukes are our Dragons. The world is fvked.

In Game of Thrones, only a select few had Dragons. Now we got lunatics everywhere with Nukes. So imagine Game of Thrones but the Starks, Lannisters, Greyjoys, Dothraki etc all had Dragons.

Have you been living under a rock? Democrats are livid over this decision as well as the decision overturning 50 years of precedent when it overturned the Chevron doctrine. Do you know what the Chevron is, or was?

The decision on immunity in Trump’s case is exactly what I’m so upset about. Biden immediately came out with a statement saying that he would hold him to a higher standard. Your statement about how Democrats like this is just plain ignorant.

Then why did you chime in? Does everyone have to have the same POV as you?

I happen to agree with the following:

Happy 4th!


Sorry, you’re too wrapped up in your blue cocoon to ever see reality. The idea that you think you’re rooting for the “good guys” and the other people are “bad guys” is just so ridiculous and laughable to me. It’s cultist behavior from people who like to talk about Trump cults.

Both Dems and Republicans are cult like followings with weirdos who idolize politicians like they care for them.

If all was fair RFK would’ve been on that debate stage last week but both parties don’t want him taking the shine away from their candidates.


RFK is a sad, weird lunatic, propped up by one party, to try and siphon off some weird votes from the other party.

It would be nice if he had something good to say, but he's weirder than Jill Stein.


I think that worm ate up more of Bobby’s brain than he realized.

I know it'll never happen. But Kamala President / Bernie as VP would be a landslide victory.

You can wish everyone a Happy 4th of July without the political 'sky is falling' BS.

Because that's all that is...BS. This 'good vs. evil' bull reality some people try to paint with this election is laughable and pathetic.

We used to be a country up until 20-30 years ago. Politics were rarely discussed like this. Now we've devolved into some Marvel **** about 'dis guy bad!' and 'dis guy good!'.

Enjoy the 4th of July. I'd love if more people stopped giving their unsolicited political opinions. That would be truly American! God bless!


Can’t you post on a thread without being acrimonious?

Your anger caused you to skip over the best version of Ray Charles singing “America”. Have you read the words to that song? That represents my feelings as well.

Criticizing our government and its institutions and s the most American thing you can do. Thats why the First Amendment is first. Of course, it would be helpful if one educated themselves on the subject matter on which their criticism is based.

Kevin Roberts is the President of the conservative "think tank" The Heritage Foundation. He is the head of Trump's "Project 25" agenda, which seeks to destroy the administrative state and to make America authoritarian as opposed to a democracy. Roberts says that we are at the precipice of a Second Revolutionary War "that will remain bloodless" so long as the Democrats comply.

This is the leader of The Heritage Foundation talking about violence against other Americans. This is what Republicans are planning over the Independence Day holiday weekend. :roll:

Obviously you are ignoring the supreme court ruling that gave sweeping power to the president to break the law. Whoever gets elected in the future. Rubicon got crossed. This country only vaguely a democracy now.

Funny how none of this excites people who normally hate "big government" or "the deep state"


Zero clue what you are talking about. The Supreme Court merely clarified what has been a long-standing practice. Otherwise Obama would’ve been put in prison for drone-striking and killing an innocent American teen. But I blame your news sources. They wind people like you up and then watch you go. It’s really rather sad.

Can you be a little more specific? Also, there's no way you could've watched that video given the fact that you posted your response literally right after I posted it. :lol:

And here's CNN. Better?

Are you a lawyer? Because if you are, then you you're not very good. You clearly don't understand the decision. Now go back to the Celtics forum and bother them.

People really need that fearmongering propaganda to get their candidate in there, eh?

Vote Biden to save the USA and, in effect, the world!

If we don't, we're all going to be put in slave labor camps and stoned to death.

Trump is going to be the new Mao!

Each election there is always some boogeyman that each side usually brings up to scare people into voting with their feelings rather than what's the right thing to do.

We had over 100 herbs burning the American flag yesterday for an anti-Israel protest. Burning the flag on the 4th of July. These are the anti-Americans that hate themselves and their country but nobody likes to talk about it because they're liberals.

I think the biggest risk for Biden isn't his "cognitive decline". But it looks like he will meet with War Criminal Satanyahu when he's in the US to speak with Congress, who will basically be running a giant Trump campaign ad to "finish the job". He shouldn't even be allowed within our borders.

Based on what I remember from class both the Chevron and immunity decision breaks the executive branch. On one hand agencies no longer can dictate policies in fields they were designed to monitor and on the other hand the president is given full immunity for official acts.

It’s all nonsense, Nixon would not have had to resign for watergate if it happened now. He would be beyond reproach. Neither Congress and the courts have the capacity to manage agency regulations. Both decisions are by their nature just as bad as Roe v. Wade, but at least in Roe v. Wade I could see where someone’s ethics would have them celebrate the decision. Both of these decisions are by their very nature unamerican and designed to take power from the people and put it in the hands of big business and whoever the president is.

I never seen a better argument for packing the court than these two decisions. The Robert’s court is a joke. These decision go beyond democratic and republicans they go against the nature of American democracy.
