And now he throws HIS DAUGHTER under the bus! I am just incredulous. ABC News Former President Donald Trump on Friday rebuked his own daughter's deposition testimony played for millions to hear during the House select committee's prime-time hearing detailing its Jan. 6 investigation. Posting to Truth Social -- the social media network Trump launched after being kicked off Twitter -- Trump continued to repeat false claims about the 2020 election as he mocked the committee's work and lashed out at comments Ivanka Trump and former Attorney General Bill Barr made in videotaped depositions. "Ivanka Trump was not involved in looking at, or studying, Election results," Trump wrote after she said she agreed with Barr's assessment that there was no amount of fraud sufficient enough to overturn his loss. "It affected my perspective," Ivanka Trump told the committee about Barr's assessment. "I respect Attorney General Barr, so I accepted what he was saying." Trump fired back Friday that Ivanka "had long since checked out, and was, in my opinion, only trying to be respectful to Bill Barr and his position as Attorney General (he sucked!)." It’s a shift in tone for Trump towards his eldest daughter, who served as a senior adviser in the White House, as did her husband Jared Kushner. Trump praised Ivanka's work multiple times during his administration, calling her smart and intelligent. Trump also once commended Barr, his second attorney general, as one of the "most respected jurists" in the nation. When Barr stepped down from his role as attorney general in December 2020, Trump said their relationship was "a very good one" and Barr had "done an outstanding job!” Boy, that's the weakest "thrown under the bus" I've ever seen. But nice try. You just go on and be incredulous.

Oh, so the people who work for her didn't call in the National Guard. Somehow that's not very helpful.

Inflation and gas prices have risen similarly in countries worldwide. The driving forces being broadly the same everywhere. Not Biden. There are many drivers, none more troubling than the hugely inflating dollar. It's one area president do have a bearing on. Trump started it with nearly a trillion in stimuli. Biden has managed to triple down on that. Unbelievable. Our currency is doomed. And yes, the dollar affects countries worldwide.

And China's been working on that.

Oh you and those silly facts. Aqua and I both read on Facebook that the Democrats hired an orange monkey, otherwise known as an orangeatang, to impersonate Trump on Jan. 6 (and fine job of the monkey did of it). The Democrats and that damn monkey are responsible 110%. And the FBI has ten thousand cases of empty film cannisters hidden somewhere that prove it. Trump had nothing to do with it. He was home in his pajamas eating ice cream and watching Barney re-runs. We tell you, the F.B.I. is covering up for this monkey and that's what this country should be looking into. Monkeygate. The Truth is Out There. A pox on all this monkey stuff...

And China's been working on that. The discussions over the last few years is to replace currency with digital currency. Regardless what it represents and just not talking cryptocurrency, just plain digital format, would then possibly set up further governmental control. For example, if the governments deem you a bad person for any reason, bingo, flip the switch and you have nothing. Whether you like it or not, we are seeing global powers planning massive control over its citizens. Currency under the mattress, will no longer be worth anything. Like the old saying Absolute power, corrupts absolutely.

To borrow a quote from Bill Barr, concerning the “steal”. Bullshit. Mike Eventually the truth will come out. I assume those who have expressed the election was honest have their brains turned off. Anyway, Mike, as usual we'll just have to agree to disagree.

Anyway, Mike, as usual we'll just have to agree to disagree. I do not know how many vote counts, vote recounts and failed court cases alleging fraud it might take for the trump faithful to recognize that Trump lost. Pathetic that Americans cannot believe in the voting system and the court system. Even judges appointed by Trump ruled against him. WAKE UP! To me it is especially galling because the lack of belief in the US voting system and courts is spearheaded by a pugnacious, loud mouth, philandering narcissist.

So ivanka (and jared) won't be part of the 2024 team.
Maybe instead he could get some generals to work for him?

I have a feeling the justice isn't going to taste that good or be very satisfying.
I think Peter and Bruce are wrong. The culture war was won more than fifty years ago. The present day skirmishes are the dying embers.

You can't rule on a case when they don't have the proof to back their claims how many times can you recount the votes and it keeps coming up the same. Just ask the Pillow Guy, he'll give you the straight skinny, you bet or ask Rudy.

To me it is especially galling because the lack of belief in the US voting system and courts is spearheaded by a pugnacious, loud mouth, philandering narcissist. How many of those cases were simply not heard as opposed to actually ruled on? You say that as if you think there is an "Ah Hah!" to be found somehow. If I were to sue you for stealing my planet, Zorb, which my Martian Uncle, Gustav, gifted me on my 234th birthday, the judge would make an preliminary examination of my case to determine if there was any semblance of cause, merit, plausibility, anything at all, to justify bringing it to trial. My claim of the stolen planet, like Trump's claim of a stolen election, is filled with so much specious bullshit that if brought to court all the judge could do is roll his eyes and groan "Lord, please spare me and this poor country from such damn desperate idiots." Deciding to not hear a case is not a cover up, it is a judicial decision referred to legally as "Pax eplurium diciesion flumuxry" (translation, "what a sorry sack of shit this is. Are you kidding? Get the fuck out of here you dumbass douche.)

Rudy came out in court a few times saying he didn't have proof on what he was saying. They threw them out for wasting the courts time and he will lose his power to be a lawyer anywhere.Same for Sidney and a few more lawyers.
