If reasonable people tell me they disagree, then hopefully they have a reasonable reason as to why they do. So tell me, why do accept Mueller’s judgem...

I’m not sure our traits are made for surviving and reproducing, as that assumes some sort of teleology. Unlike the worker ant, we are able to furnish ...

There is a DOJ investigation going on to understand the activities of U.S. and foreign intelligence services as well as non-governmental organizations...

Someone has to turn this ship around. It looks like Trump is the one doing it. We’ve had enough of the eloquent lawyers speaking in glittering general...

I’m not a lawyer, but Barr’s assessment makes sense: that little problem of proving corrupt intent, especially in an investigation with no underlying ...
September 29, 2019 at 02:43
Barr’s letter wasn’t a summary. He went over this in his testimony. You told me Barr was partisan. I asked how. You said Barr’s “summary” was differen...

yes, we are not slaves to our base impulses, which censors often imply. But they would make us slaves to their base impulses, their fears of future ca...

What’s wrong with that?

As I’ve previously stated I’m an unaffiliated voter. Do you know what that means? Hey, he tried. What more can you ask for?
September 28, 2019 at 16:20
It’s also a bottom-up approach, so to speak, because it is freely chosen rather than enforced from above.
September 28, 2019 at 16:18
According to Barr’s testimony to Congress, Barr talked to Mueller on the phone and asked whether his letter (so-called summary) was inaccurate. Muelle...
September 28, 2019 at 15:48
I have. So what’s partisan about Barr’s judgement again?
September 28, 2019 at 15:09
You asked seven questions. I answered many of them. But I never answer questions? Your lies are annoying. I’m not a lawyer, but Barr’s assessment make...
September 28, 2019 at 15:07
More breathless accusations. This is the going rate with anti-Trumpism.
September 27, 2019 at 23:08
If you don’t know why or are not willing to share why Barr is partisan, why make the claim?
September 27, 2019 at 22:27
Definitely 3 so long as it is voluntary. Unfortunately that might take a while.
September 27, 2019 at 22:15
Get this, but the “OK” symbol is now a hate symbol, according to the ADL. https://www.cnn.com/2019/09/26/us/adl-new-hate-symbols/index.html Just like ...
September 27, 2019 at 22:12
His truths, you mean. You’re lying to yourself.
September 27, 2019 at 22:05
How did Barr show himself to be partisan? Just more breathless accusations.
September 27, 2019 at 20:51
I’ve never stated Mueller establish no crime was committed. I’ve only stated and implied that he did not prove guilt of any crime. But yes we can agre...
September 27, 2019 at 20:48
Yeah, you’re pretty good at believing accusations without have bothered with the defense.
September 27, 2019 at 20:16
You referred to Mueller’s report to maintain that his reasoning was sound. I’m referring to the Attorney General and American law that shows that it’s...
September 27, 2019 at 19:31
It was a fake, invented accusation based on zero evidence beyond the accuser’s skull. I forget who it was, some Nixon fan, but he asked someone who le...
September 27, 2019 at 19:27
But it’s thoroughly consistent with the Attorney general’s judgement on the matter, which I hope you’re aware of. https://www.justice.gov/opa/speech/o...
September 27, 2019 at 19:15
Just curious, but do you require laws to teach you from right or wrong, or how to act in good conduct?
September 27, 2019 at 17:05
Adopting a nominalistic approach to thinking has fundamentally altered how I think about the world. It’s especially beneficial when applied to human b...

That’s very true. Hopefully the FISA court and the DOJ gets a massive overhaul.
September 27, 2019 at 15:32
He did not, as the Attorney General ofThe United States concluded. No collusion. No obstruction. Mueller could have concluded Trump committed crimes, ...
September 27, 2019 at 15:14
I am not a lawyer, but neither Mueller or Barr said they should be pursued.
September 27, 2019 at 08:20
I didn’t mean that the special council convicted people of crimes. Only that they were determine whether crimes were being committed, ie conspiracy, o...
September 27, 2019 at 08:16
Uh yeah. The special council was determining whether crimes were being committed, and in fact determined many crimes were committed. The courts determ...
September 27, 2019 at 07:29
What? The point of a court is to administer justice. Law enforcement such as the DOJ determines whether crimes are committed.
September 27, 2019 at 07:23
The DOJ is to determine whether crimes have been committed and to prosecute those crimes under the principles of federal prosecution.
September 27, 2019 at 07:10
The Attorney General had to step in and issue a verdict because oddly the Special Council wouldn’t do it, which is why Barr wrote “no obstruction” in ...

Either I’m in over my head or not. What was I wrong about?
September 27, 2019 at 00:13
Out of respect to the board and mods, here would be best. Begin any time.
September 26, 2019 at 23:28
I’ll wait.
September 26, 2019 at 23:27
I’ve given you thousands of opportunities to begin making your case. I don’t know what you’re waiting for.
September 26, 2019 at 23:16
How is it not? Show me how far I am in over my head. I don’t mind being corrected.
September 26, 2019 at 23:15
Mueller also said this: “Every defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty”. He said this in regards to the Russians. The presumptio...

It’s not evidence of their guilt either. Investigations such as Mueller’s are not designed to prove innocence or exonerate anyone; they are to prove g...

If it involves Donald Trump put it here. We don’t need to poison these boards with trump debates.
September 26, 2019 at 21:20
Please, if you want to get started, make a case, whatever, just start.

I’ve answered many of your questions but you won’t answer one of mine. Scared?
