When two organizations bearing your name have been convicted of criminal activity, it’s hard to claim innocence.

Trump companies convicted on all charges in Manhattan criminal tax fraud case

NEW YORK - A Manhattan jury on Tuesday convicted two of former President Donald Trump’s companies on all charges in an criminal tax fraud scheme, adding a new complication to the many investigations and legal matters shadowing his third presidential campaign.

The Trump Corporation was found guilty on all of nine criminal counts and the Trump Payroll Corporation was found guilty on all of eight criminal counts.

The companies face criminal penalties of up to $1.6 million.

Trump was not charged in the case, and did not appear in the courtroom during the trial. Defense lawyer Susan Necheles said trial evidence showed Trump was not involved. However, the former president criticized the prosecution in a late November social media post.

I agree with you on the evils of communism, with that said then you should understand why I am opposed to the democrat party in my country, this political party has many self-proclaimed communists in its ranks and serving in congress, beware of the term “progressive” these are communist in hiding

Letter to the Editor: Both political parties are to blame

The embarrassment most American’s are feeling today is a direct cause of two major problems facing the citizenry: the Republican and Democratic parties. There is more than enough blame to go around for both.

When Donald Trump was elected, the Democrats ran around screaming the sky is falling and created outrageous stories about a tyrant in office and a puppet of Vladimir Putin, and their views were supported by the likes of CNN, MSNBC, Politico, New York Times, The Washington Post and of course social media.

When Joe Biden/Kamala Harris won, the Republicans acted like a bunch of complaining children who did not get their way and as a result, we got our Capitol overrun by those who bought into the hyperbole.

The Republicans and the Democrats are not going to solve this problem. The Republicans and the Democrats, along with our irresponsible media, are the problem.

Stop thinking of yourself as a Republican or a Democrat and start thinking of yourself as an American first. I did not vote for either Trump or Biden. My conscience would not allow it.

In 2016, I rooted for our new president because I wanted our country to succeed, just like I will begin rooting for President Biden, because I want our country to succeed. Too many people were rooting against Trump, and too many people will be rooting against Biden.

Why? We cheered for the Browns for 18 years when they were at their lowest. Now it is time to show that same vigor for our nation while we attempt to climb out of the hole the two-party system and our national media have created. Be an American first. Not a shill for one of the corrupt parties.

US Courts Just Ruled Against Donald Trump In Georgia Case

Donald Trump’s legal woes are going from bad to worse, as he’s just been hit with another bombshell; this time as a spate of court rulings have rejected claims by the former president and some of his allies for executive privilege preventing them from testifying in court. Omg!

Trump’s Court Issues In Georgia

The US Justice Department and a special Georgia grand jury have been investigating whether the 76-year-old twice-impeached former president broke the law as he desperately tried to overturn the results of the 2020 election; and now several key Trump backers as well as ex-administration lawyers, such as ex-chief of staff Mark Meadows and legal adviser John Eastman, will no longer be able to avoid testifying before grand juries in Washington DC and Georgia. Specifically they are wanted regarding their knowledge of – or roles in – Trump’s mission to block Biden’s route to the White House with false claims of fraud.

Following these court decisions, Meadows, Eastman, Lindsey Graham and others will be forced to testify before the Georgia grand jury working with the Fulton County district attorney, who are focussing on the efforts of Trump and his allies to put pressure on the Georgia Secretary of State, amongst other officials, to deny Biden his crucial win there.

US courts ruling in favor of justice department turns legal tide on Trump

I do because I somehow have an idea as to what goes behind the scenes. What the government brings into the public eye is just the tip of the iceberg, the real thing is still hidden, which they never show. No matter which government comes to power, the lives of common people won’t get better unless some major reforms take place in the country, as simple as that.

Trump Praises Chinese President For Extending Tenure ‘For Life’

"He’s now president for life, president for life. And he’s great. And look, he was able to do that. I think it’s great. Maybe we’ll have to give that a shot someday."

“He’s now president for life, president for life. And he’s great,” Trump said, according to audio of excerpts of Trump’s remarks at a closed-door fundraiser in Florida aired by CNN. “And look, he was able to do that. I think it’s great. Maybe we’ll have to give that a shot someday,” Trump said to cheers and applause from supporters.

U.S. Representative Ro Khanna, a Democrat, said on Twitter that “whether this was a joke or not, talking about being President for life like Xi Jinping is the most unAmerican sentiment expressed by an American President. George Washington would roll over in his grave.”

Trump praises communist North Korea as future ‘great Economic Powerhouse’

This is the same week he attacked Democratic Socialists and vowed America would never be a socialist country.

President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Friday to extol the virtues and the future economic promise of North Korea, which has long been a brutal communist dictatorship and shows no sign of changing its ways.

“North Korea, under the leadership of Kim Jong Un, will become a great Economic Powerhouse,” the president of the United States said. “He may surprise some but he won’t surprise me, because I have gotten to know him & fully understand how capable he is. North Korea will become a different kind of Rocket – an Economic one!”

Donald Trump’s History of Praising Dictators

It’s not just Saddam Hussein. Donald Trump has offered praise to a number of authoritarian leaders since announcing his run for president.

This isn’t the first time Trump has praised Hussein — or other dictators. His remarks are among several instances in which the billionaire candidate has offered praise for tyrannical leaders. Here are other authoritarians that Trump has praised:

Yes, I do recall that. But, people haven’t gotten any relief until now, maybe in the future, they will let’s wait for that to happen. Do you know there are berries found in Australia that can cure cancer? Such news will always be suppressed by the media and the businessmen owning them because they want us to undergo expensive and painful chemotherapy to treat cancer.

The cure for Aids was invented over 25 years ago by a guy in Africa, but he disappeared, and nobody knows where he is. Here’s another guy who invented something.

Tim Ogle: This Guy’s Device Got 100 Miles Per Gallon – Then He Had An Attempt On His Life & Later Mysteriously Died

Many people will be familiar with the story of Tim Ogle. Ogle invented a device in 1977 that could go on any car and provide the owner with an automobile that could get 100 miles per gallon with zero carbon emissions.

Now that, is revolutionary and it makes me wonder why no one actually ever went on to develop his product, but I think we all know the ultimate reason, don’t we?

While some people believe the story of American inventor Thomas Ogle is a myth or urban legend, the reality is that Ogle designed and implemented a “vapor carburetor” that allowed a vehicle to achieve over 100 miles per gallon of gasoline in 1977—with no carbon emissions.

Sadly, Ogle’s invention would never see the light of day.

After surviving an assassination attempt, Olge subsequently died under suspicious circumstances only months later.

It’s impossible to make this stuff up

Trump brags that he ‘openly and transparently’ took government documents from the White House to Mar-a-Lago

Trump boasted about “openly and transparently” moving official government records to Mar-a-Lago.

“When will you invade the other Presidents’ homes in search of documents, which are voluminous, which they took with them, but not nearly so openly and transparently as I did?” he wrote on Truth Social.

Former President Donald Trump boasted on Monday about how he “openly and transparently” moved government records from the White House to Mar-a-Lago upon leaving office.

“…When will you invade Bill and Hillary’s home in search of the 33,000 emails she deleted AFTER receiving a subpoena from the U.S. Congress?” Trump wrote on his social media website, Truth Social.

“When will you invade the other Presidents’ homes in search of documents, which are voluminous, which they took with them, but not nearly so openly and transparently as I did?”

Yes, and Yes, it will help them to deliver more of the same. A win for democrats and a loss for middle-class Americans. With the current trend, the US government becomes more authoritarian and more one-party rule with every election, I don’t know how many more years I have left but I fear that I may live to see the US become more like China than China.

Note; when Joe Manchin votes against his party, he is doing it with the party’s blessing, this happens every time the democrats want to appear to be for something but are really against it. Democrats are not about helping the people, but enslaving them. Just read the novel “Brave New World” which seems to be their manual, it is China’s too, the question is who will get there first.

Identify one political so call propaganda post that wasn’t true, You keep talking, but now prove it

And I will gladly concede

Morph, nailed it with this post, you have fixated on the propaganda that the government/media wants you to fixate on, that tip of the iceberg. It does not matter if the propaganda is 100% true 100% a lie or somewhere in between, you don’t look at the bigger picture hidden from us. The government/media is like the illusionist, they bring your attention to what they want you to see, so you miss what they do not want you to see.

I am not asking you to concede anything

Fox Business Host Drops Hard Truths In Trump-Bashing Segment

Fox Business host Stuart Varney has again gone after Donald Trump for dragging down the Republican Party.

Varney ― a former Trump ally who once insisted the then-president had never told the American people a lie ― devoted a segment Tuesday to criticizing Trump for backing dud candidates in the recent midterms. He also took issue with Trump’s attempt to take back remarks he made over the weekend calling for parts of the Constitution to be terminated to accommodate his desire to be re-installed as president.

“He was talking about terminating parts of the Constitution. That plays right into the Democrats’ hands,” Varney said. “He’s trying to walk it back today but the damage has been done.”

Varney also said Trump “appears to be losing what used to be his iron grip on the GOP,” noting candidates he endorsed in key midterm races in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania had all lost.

You’re right, they will never bring such cures in public because they are taking money from big pharmaceutical companies who are manufacturing expensive and ineffective medicines with loads of side effects. And yes, I have read about Tim Olge and his invention, makes me livid thinking that such great inventions have gone unnoticed intentionally. There are hundreds of other examples as well. These capitalists won’t let anything good to happen because it dents their income.

Thanks Dennis! It is not that difficult to discern the true intentions of politicians, just a few google searches and you can easily find out what they are up to. Moreover, I was once being told that you can be a fan of a movie star or a sportsperson, but never a politician. Sad to see some people fall for politicians, listening to their sugar-coated BS**** only to regret later on.
