Stephen Barr? It’s William Barr. Not only that but It was Sessions who commissioned the report. Let’s start recognizing these simple fact before we co...

It’s because the FBI lied to judiciary committee, lied to Congress, lied to the media. I too thought the same until I read the report, which thoroughl...

I’m only alleging that they weren’t warning Trump that Russia was trying to infiltrate their campaign. They decided against informing the campaign abo...

It wasn’t a briefing so much as it was an opportunity to investigate the campaign. https://www.rev.com/blog/inspector-general-report-hearing-transcrip...

Not poor little Greta. How dare he?

There’s a lot of equivocating between critical thinking, criticism, and critique. Is this an example of critical thinking without context?

I was told Russians were trying to infiltrate their campaign. I make an entire argument and you quibble about one word.

My point is they would not properly understand the topic without a base of critical thinking. They would understand how to repeat information, sure, b...

Without critical thinking learning is simply uncritical acceptance of information. I think critical thinking is a basis for understanding fields prope...

Deep state or stupid state? As IG Horowitz explains his report in the senate hearing, it is becoming more and more apparent that the FBI completely fa...

Impeachment is falling apart as the charade becomes more evident. Exclusive: Top Ukraine Official Andriy Yermak Casts Doubt on Key Impeachment Testimo...

They didn’t tell the victims of the crime and instead investigated them. Barr also said exculpatory evidence was withheld from warrant applications, a...

Barr did a recent interview on NBC, and If Barr is right it’s looking like the hoax is worse than Watergate. We’re talking about the use of state powe...

According to a damning expose by the Washington Post, Afghanistan was a monumental failure and all administrations knew it. They fudged the truth to d...

The executive branch has “executive privilege”. It’s just not that easy. It’s going to be tricky for the Dems.

I agree they are stonewalling congress. But we cannot pretend that stonewalling congress is out of the ordinary or every president would have to be im...

I made no such conclusion. The conclusion I did make is bolded for all to see.

Show me the man, and I'll show you the crime.

From the horse’s mouth. more fantasy.

Do you believe Ukraine shouldn’t investigate possible corruption because it might hurt Biden’s chance in the next election?

That’s a problem for Dems because again they’ll have to prove corrupt intent. The US constitution does not explicitly grant Congress the power to inve...

No, my only point was the Dems were waffling, more concerned with messaging and optics than justice. The fact they use focus groups to see which worke...

But Trump isn’t impeaching Schiff. We’re speaking about messaging for the purposes of influencing an investigation into the president of the United St...

The shift in messaging from “quid pro quo” to “bribery” was the result of DNC focus groups. I suspect it’s the same with “abuse of power”. It’s not so...

You’re probably right. What’s curious to me is that people were arguing for it without the evidence to do so, only to abandon the idea when it wasn’t ...

What I mean is one moment they were pushing bribery and extortion, the next moment they’re pushing “abuse of power”. Why wouldn’t they put bribery and...

I also feel that asceticism is escapism, a way to avoid the troubling work of existence. But I do not think all hope is lost on consumerism. The consu...

Life has never been better. Moping isn’t going to fix anything.

Well the Dems have released their articles of impeachment: abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. So first they led you to believe Trump was guil...

In my defense I believe it is a credible source insofar as it describes the fears of scientists. My only argument is their fears have turned out to be...

None taken. What conspiracy would that be?

You believe the accusations of the opposition without evidence, and I’m naive. I’ve never used the word “cultural marxists” so it makes no sense putti...

I never drew from it the conclusion you pretend I did. I’m only saying that it isn’t true Biden is Trump’s opponent in 2020, so why keep saying it? It...

It’s statement of fact that Biden is not the presidential candidate for the Democratic Party. The primary hasn’t occurred yet. As Giuliani said, if he...

I use the term “fantasy” because the idea he is using it for political benefit for the purpose of winning the 2020 election is imagined, made up, pres...

I resurrected the thread because I wanted to debate neoliberalism. No ill will was intended. I will step away so as to comply with your orders.

We can imagine what the founders envisioned until the cows come home. The only one bending legal interpretations are the ones impeaching a president b...

They merely disguised the failures of socialism and the post-war consensus with market reforms, as did Sweden and many others. If Thatcher hadn’t priv...

If Trump’s holdovers exist in the next administration, I would feel the same way.

But holdovers of the previous administration are much different than appointees of the current administration. I also stated that IG Horowitz was limi...

No one sold neo-liberalism. It’s essentially anti-market term of abuse. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12116-009-9040-5

As expected the IG report by Obama-appointed Horowitz was essentially a dud. It’s no surprise that a complicit media and their base is now gloating, U...

Amazing arguments.

He rejected both social justice and the welfare state, both of which are regnant in social democracies.

The idea that Hayek’s ideas reign supreme in social democracies is patently absurd.

The third way philosophy explicitly rejects “neoliberalism”. So there’s that.

Simply because Third Way policies came from the minds of socialists, not liberals, as I just quoted.

It’s a far more accurate term than “neoliberalism”, which is a boogie-man. Blair wasn’t the only one who spoke like this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

The doomsday clock has never been right. A clock that never hits midnight is broken, which is ironic for atomic science. Rather the analogy should be ...

“Neoliberalism” almost always has a negative connotation, is used pejoratively, and as such no one actually uses the label to describe himself or his ...
