The ENTIRE department of Justice and PLENTY of intelligence agencies run without any oversight from ELECTED officials.
Chuck Schumer himself mentioned the week Trump was elected the intelligence community has six ways past sunday to fight anyone they don't like.
That includes voters.
That includes the American people.
The president will get held accountable based on what he can pull off, but he has NO control over these organizations that are supposed to operate in his branch of government.
The DoJ and the intel orgs see it as their job to attack anyone in the party they don't like. This is why there are all these removed text messages among the high ranks of the FBI. They are trying to cover up the Russia style corruption going on.
That means these are POLITICAL offices now and need to be scrapped with every change in office.
Trump should be able to do with all these guys what Clinton did with the US attorneys when he took office: fire them all!
If there is any conflict between what the FBI wants and what the voters want, the FBI MUST LOSE. Voters know better!
Trying to remember the last election where interfering in other countries angered people enough to go to the polls.
Or making insinuations about groups of people.
I think it was in the 70s.
Even if it did have political effects (btw it didn't), what racist thing has Trump said? I guess I missed that part. Are you one of those people who think talking tough to Kim Jong Ill is racist?
And what high crime qualifies Trump for impeachment? Call me when that question gets answered.
Seems like the democrats are know are the gun owners, and the republicans support gun ownership in principle but personally find them to be dangerous and violence inducing.
I don't think it should be a party line issue. Rick Santorum was able to exploit this quite successfully in blue Pennsylvania.
Who was the free market candidate in the 2018 general election for US president?
It's not clear to me and I think America is the one who is really paying for tariffs.
Look at the island of San Salvador. Which side has tariffs? The one Trump would describe as a dump hole: Haiti. Which one is more free market? The Dominican Republic.
Human beings are perfectible. You can get them to fast as easily as to feast. Only one thing is required: that they are just like all the others. But God desires primitivity.
There's also Mister Rogers' statement on the floor of the US Congress insisting that people stop trying to program one another.
When the IRS, NSA, and other federal departments have been publicly known to read through the political opposition comms what is going to stop us from becoming the next Venezuela or China?
Ordinary people are not a public safety issue !! Unrestricted government is !!

What do you think corruption is?
Are you going to wear a "celebrate oligarchy" shirt or what?
"Social contract" reminds me of "social promotion" ... where everyone goes to the next grade level just because they exist.
... I say we should dismantle that and only let companies pay for the people who earn their keep.
Yeah
What you are talking about is true in some churches.
I was talking about in Jesus's perspective (cf Luke 15).

I'm going to steal that cliche. There are so many places on this murderous forum where I can use that.

Need I say more?
Well ... where do you live ?
Why is the federal government trying to tell companies who they can do business with?
China is NOT a state sponsor of terror.
The GOP needs to figure out if they believe in freedom or not.
What?
How should Trump and Obama have stopped the State of Hawaii from doing this ??
I'm afraid knee jerk reactions like this is going to enable the bad guys to get away with this.
To paraphrase Kierkegaard:

I agree. I was simply saying money often does not lead to success in politics.
The whole premise of the "wealthy" buying politicians is false.
The wealthy pushed Cantor, Florida's Bush, and Rubio and they all fell on their face with the voters.
Food stamps are here to appease angry old conservatives?
Tell me about this new understanding!
Seriously, manifold are the happiness surveys showing older people are the happiest in the world.
How are judges going to impartially determine a party gerrymandered (as opposed to "redistricted to make it fair again")?
How can we be sure judges are not the new mechanisms of corruption here?
When the districts were political football at least we knew both parties could work it to their advantage when they get into office.
Now it just looks like the judges give into the party that whines or threatens or annoys the most.
When the IRS, NSA, and other federal departments have been publicly known to read through the political opposition comms what is going to stop us from becoming the next Venezuela or China?
Ordinary people are not a public safety issue !! Unrestricted government is !!
Oooh! Non-speculative demand? Tell me more!
Is that like "objective value"?
Or self-making decisions?
Linux has a problem with OS's.
The first computers cost millions of dollars.
This is not a mature technology, people. It starts expensive.
Whoever is in the opposition is an extremist.
Venezuela is our shining example for removing extremist content.
Also the IRS auditing organizations specifically because they aligned themselves with the TEA party is another shining example.
Where are the slashdot people who say old people should die because age is miserable?
I guess they can't type and swallow humble pie at the same time.
Hopefully the murderous creeps who promote eugenics just stopped going on the internet and polluting the rest of us.
Otherwise people might start forming their own opinions
Martian water currently exists as a fictional entity in government grant requests.
This is the same place it originated from.
The intent is to burn off immeasurable amounts of tax payers resources just as the Martian atmosphere has been burned away by the Sun.
