No you could not do that before. Prior to the internet it cost you $15 or $20 per hour to call someone that was 200 miles down the road, but now I can have full motion video calls with someone anywhere in the world and all I need is an internet connection at the web Cafe.
In the past I couldn’t send money around the world unless it cost me a lot to do it, but now I can send $1,000 or $10,000 to someone on the other side of the planet and it cost me very little. I can also transfer bitcoins to anyone in the world and it cost me slivers of pennies.
I understand you’re being a smart aleck when you say that I am creating a one world order but it is not me that is forming a one world order the one world order is formed because we are in a global marketplace right now.
100 years ago it wasn’t even possible to communicate instantaneously with someone on the other side of the planet you had to send them a letter and it had to be transported by ship which would take months or at least weeks.
Freedom of speech does not mean freedom of consequences
The First Amendment protects individuals and allows freedom of speech, religion, assembly, press and the right to petition. However, the right to freedom of speech has fallen under scrutiny lately because some individuals believe that freedom of speech means they can say whatever they want to without having to endure consequences. Freedom of speech does not exempt us from suffering consequences on the basis of something we say.
Everyone is entitled to be able to voice their own opinions, ideas and views without interference from the government. However, once statements that are voiced condone some form of discrimination, racism, homophobia, etc., at that point one cannot expect people to not voice their opinions back or call out these individuals for their negative comments. Individuals are also free to voice their comments on any social media platform but they should also expect that they may face possible backlash if the comments that are made are derogatory, racist, etc.
Individuals also have to understand that regardless of having the right to freedom of speech, there are limitations to what can be said. For example, we cannot yell “fire” in a crowded area like a sporting event or movie theatre because that word is inciting chaos that can lead to someone being injured. If someone were to yell “fire” without there being an actual fire they will face consequences through law enforcement.
Given that he has never won the popular vote, don’t be surprised if he becomes the next president.
Post-indictment poll: Trump surges to largest-ever lead over DeSantis
A new Yahoo News/YouGov poll — one of the first conducted after former President Donald Trump was indicted Thursday for his role in paying hush money to a porn star — shows Trump surging to his largest-ever lead over Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, his likely 2024 GOP primary challenger, as Republican voters rally around the only president in U.S. history to face criminal charges.
In the previous Yahoo News/YouGov survey, which was conducted less than two weeks ago, Trump (47%) led DeSantis (39%) by eight percentage points in a head-to-head matchup among registered voters who are Republicans or Republican-leaning independents. As recently as February, it was DeSantis who was narrowly ahead of Trump, 45% to 41%.
But the new, post-indictment poll suddenly finds Trump lapping DeSantis by 26 percentage points — 57% to 31% — in a one-on-one contest. The former president even attracts majority support (52%, up from 44% previously) when pitted against a wider, 10-candidate field of declared and potential GOP challengers, while DeSantis plummets to 21% (down from 28%).
Its no surprise any US President could have been indicted and certainly were accused, with evidence, of criminal acts - Roosevelt, Harding, Nixon, Clinton.
Maybe Ford, for pardoning Nixon.
Maybe more?
Its great to see that the indictment confirms nobody is above the law. Many democratising states over the years have just not got this.
Hunter Biden is on film smoking crack with prostitutes and his father is on video pushing pressure to fire prosecutors or they don’t get the billion dollars and both of those are crimes so I think the Biden administration is above the law.
Nancy pelosi came on TV couple days ago and said that Mr Trump would have his chance to prove his innocence but that is exactly the opposite of what our system is supposed to be.
Here is a list of state governors who are only one step below a president. state governors and City mayors have always been convicted in the United States for their criminal conduct
They all claimed that it was a political witch hunt, but evidence suggested otherwise.
politicians like to forget that the common man outnumbers him by ten million to one.
i read that the indictment contains a laundry list of crimes, which the world can easily see that is a deliberate and unwarranted political attack upon president donald trump.
what they also fail to remember is that a shotgun beats an ink pen every time.
president donald trump was very specific when instructing to remain peaceful on january sixth(and on every other day)and that is what they did, yet they were accused of an “armed attack” even tho there is not one single video of anyone brandishing any weapons.
I get what you are saying, but I’m talking about the people who was convicted for various crimes for their actions, do you think they committed those crimes or do you think it was a lie as in made up story
Whether or not they had arms, criminals were found guilty or pleaded guilty for their criminal actions, they should of stayed their as outside, problem solved
you don’t have to have arms to commit a criminal act
Again, I understand what you’re saying, and once more, a number of people were convicted of a variety of crimes. You seem to believe that because they didn’t shoot up the place, no crime was committed, which is why I said they should have stayed outside. Please check the list of their convictions and their charges.
do you remember the guy wearing the funny hat with bull horns on it? the guy that was photographed with his feet up on pelosi’s desk? he served a couple of years in prison for putting his feet up on pelosi’s desk.
how did he get into pelosi’s office (with security police standing by as he was photographed) if he wasnt invited in by the police?
there was no crime. do you see the other people standing around calmly? ie, there was no attack and there was no crime.
