So for all the Anti-Trump fans- here is an article forwarded to me by a anti-trump friend. Not sure if this was posted before, I am probably a month late.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/10/02/us/politics/donald-trump-tax-schemes-fred-trump.html

Like a month and a half late, I posted it. We've talked about it a lot already. We talked about it some more a few days ago, when mr-x falsely posted that me/lennco said he would be in prison by now. Had to point out NY State tax department is currently investigating what was in the report and that we'll know more when we get his personal taxes next year.

No, it's not a holiday here. Too bad you can't find turkey... how about chicken as a substitute? Personally I prefer the taste of chicken to turkey.

I can find it, but it basically sucks. Dry and expensive. I did have pechuga de pollo a la leña though.

Gotta love open flames- no smog controls.

A national emergency in Mexico! Call the ONU (United Nations) we need $27,000. a day. Where is OpenSocietys and Sin Fronteras right now? Why aren't they feeding these people?

Where is Jim Acosta now? Why isn't CNN and him there, doing this coverage on site, live coverage and translating on behalf of the America People? (Because Acosta is a scared little wuss, living in DC) Acosta flys everywhere, but not to the Border. Why not? CNN could be right there day and night, making it their cause. They would rather berate the President though.

Estamos Protestando!!!! Translated parts: "We demand food, we are hungry! We want to work. We are workers. We raise our voice! If the US doesn't open the doors- we call for Europe and whatever other country to help us!" "we don't believe in this process, we want to work", "We ask to forgive us Mexico, we thank you", "We have no solution", "we want asylum", "we don't want violence", "we are going to get sick since we are wet (Rained) "We are waiting to enter the USA or Canada or any country to work"

(Like where is Angela Merkel? These people want to work and not change the national religion, Where is international voice like Spain?)

Yea, the stupid black friday stuff is ridiculous. de acuerdo. I have actually never participated ever, stay away from such nonsense. Every year in Latin America, it seems to increase in acceptance and size, we had traffic jams all over yesterday- pre-black friday crazy- "Dia de accione de gracias- de compras" lol.

This happened today:

Trump Foundation lawsuit: New York state judge rejects Trump claim that he can't be sued because he is president

• A New York Supreme Court judge on Friday denied a request from President Donald Trump and his family members to dismiss a lawsuit against them and the Trump Foundation.
• In her ruling, Justice Saliann Scarpulla shot down an argument from the Trump family's attorneys that the case should be dismissed because the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution suggests "a sitting president may not be sued."
• The suit from New York state Attorney General Barbara Underwood alleges that the charitable foundation violated state and federal laws for "more than a decade."

Major Trump administration climate report says damages are ‘intensifying across the country’

Scientists are more certain than ever that climate change is already affecting the United States — and that it is going to be very expensive.

The federal government on Friday released a long-awaited report with an unmistakable message: The effects of climate change, including deadly wildfires, increasingly debilitating hurricanes and heat waves, are already battering the United States, and the danger of more such catastrophes is worsening.

The report’s authors, who represent numerous...

I think the Republican Party is the biggest climate denying group in the world.

So those Republican climate deniers are the biggest threat to this planet.

While you Anti-Trumpers keep looking for alleged crimes, the rest of the world seems more interested in the alleged actions and potential crimes abeited by Facebook. 368 million people represented, more than entire US population wants to know about how they intend to preserve privacy, democracy, stop fake news, stop manipulating votes, election interference, etc.

It really is pretty sad, that this punk kid Zuckerberg is simply too self important to even do a PR campaign for shareholders and too busy manipulating and prepping for war with DC to bother. Lol. If he looked differently at testifying he could twist the thing to his benefit and actually help the company.

For his arrogance, I hope the company is inundated with lawsuits and legal expenses and fined. Then the share prices come down and #deletefacebook spreads.

“Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg has declined to testify at a rare joint hearing with lawmakers from seven countries, representing more than 368 million people, according to a letter which was sent by the company to those officials and was obtained by The Washington Post.”

But CNN can help manipulate the narrative for sure.

That's not true. Don't see anything trending. People can simply stop using FB. Most who are on it, are on it for a reason, even being aware of this stuff. I think you mean you, since you were begging earlier multiple times not to talk about Trump, in a thread about politics.

 

[JB Lions]

Forgot about:

Hillary Lies about Benghazi- this is all but forgotten.

She was cleared after multiple Republican led committees went thru it.

You either post misinformation, old articles from years ago to 1972, not up to date on things like the New York Times articles on Trump, etc.

Funny because last week "scientist" were caught using bad math to calculate the temperature of the oceans.

Hmm.. Democrats seem to be changing their minds about open border and mass immigration.

John Kerry - Immigration is bad.
https://twitter.com/RealSaavedra/status/1063635662996455424/video/1

I don't believe them. I think they realize the majority of Americans don't want open borders and it bad for their party.

Strategy to split the R' and I's vote. If they were in power, they'd have a different opinion.

Funny because last week "scientist" were caught using bad math to calculate the temperature of the oceans.

"The current warming trend is of particular significance because most of it is extremely likely (greater than 95 percent probability) to be the result of human activity since the mid-20th century and proceeding at a rate that is unprecedented over decades to millennia."

Hmm.. Democrats seem to be changing their minds about open border and mass immigration.

Not really. They just don't want to waste money on the wall. That they're for open borders is nonsense spewed from Trump, repeated by followers.

Decades of Marxist indoctrination via entertainmebnt, the media and education are finally coming to fruition.

lol

That makes sense, except they will split their own party the same way the Republicans split. Decades of Marxist indoctrination via entertainmebnt, the media and education are finally coming to fruition.

I was just reading about how Stalin starved millions of Ukranians in a genocide that the American left worked hard to cover up.. Even a picture if American comnunists violently attacking a peaceful protest on the genocide.

Shows how little things have changed. The leftists of that day either believed reports of the genocide were lies (useful idiots) or they were willing to overlook it as a justifiable cost of their utopian vision.Almost every attempt at utopia in history has ended in massive bloodshed.

These older Dems who are trying to play the middle will find they are increasingly unsuccessful. That will leave us with only the extremes, thanks to years of lies.

The left always talks about greed. Even while they force working people to pay for stuff they want for free, even while they riot and loot stuff they don't need.

We allied with Stalin in WWII. Two minutes on google will show USA has allied with all types of countries.

Stalin’s dead and gone. Show me one of our allies within the last 20 years who committed a similar state-ordered atrocity where we didn’t impose sanctions or take a strong stand against it.

Seriously, were you even alive during the Obama years?

Not even trying to research this, just off the top of my head I remember two skids of U.S. currency being delivered to Iran.

 

[Domainace]

Folks on the left sure are selective about their fears and outrage. Worse atrocities are committed daily around the world, including those by the USA, against women, children, and award winning journalists, and the big worry is about one Saudi friend of the royal family.

Meanwhile, unprecedented surveillance powers, unchecked censorship, global environmental destruction, the threat of super-viruses, the death of marine life.... and the big worry is about romaine lettuce - cooked no less! Nobody has ever died from eating cooked lettuce unless they choked on it.

Egypt. Iraq. Turkey. Iran ( Obama ). Curious you don't have a problem with Stalin b/c he's dead. How do you feel about Cambodia?
