People cared when the Panama papers came out revealing the mass amount of tax avoidance going on. Also, as president he should be scrutinised even more. You think it's right for him to hire lawyers for the sole purpose of exploiting every tax loophole? If you tried it you can guarantee you'd be booted up the ass pretty quickly. So what's it ok for the rich to do it? Quote:
Oh wait, you don't even know that's a thing, do you? Don't forget the guy has boasted a few times about not paying federal tax Quote:
Remember when you crowed like the rest of the buffoons about Clinton being locked up. Thought Trump was going to do that and be the saviour for you all? |
Quote:
I disagree about the scrutinization of a sitting President! However, I would be in favor of every presidential candidate’s taxes being made public as a stipulation for their name appearing on the election ballot......but Congress hasn’t implemented such a change in that process. Regarding tax loopholes, until the Tax Laws are changed, people will continue to bend them to their advantage. It’s up to the IRS to determine if the tax law was bent too far......guess that’s what the lawyers are for? Also, I have no doubt the majority in Congress, both sides of the isle, wouldn’t appear so wholesome if their taxes were made public. Quote:

The paranoid style in pandemic politics
By Paul Krugman Opinion Columnist When Chris Wallace asked Donald Trump, “How will you regard your years as President of the United States?” Trump didn’t cite a single achievement. Instead, he went immediately into grievance mode, declaring that “I’ve been very unfairly treated, and I don’t say that as paranoid.” Actually, Mr. President, that is paranoid. But while Trump couldn’t cite any achievements, one thing he has achieved is defining paranoia down. In another administration it would be a days-long scandal that the president is trying to appoint an insane conspiracy theorist, who claims that the former head of the C.I.A. plotted the president’s assassination, to the #3 position in the Pentagon. These days it barely registered on the news cycle. But if the Trump administration and its allies, both in Congress and the media, were paranoid before Covid-19, things have gotten much worse over the past few months. Peter Navarro, the administration’s trade czar, got a lot of grief for his op-ed attacking Anthony Fauci; if you think he did that without a go-ahead from his boss, I have a degree from Trump University you might want to buy. But his claim a few days earlier that Covid-19 was a “weaponized virus” sent by China to hurt the U.S. economy was much crazier, and would have been a major international incident if the Chinese, like everyone else, hadn’t become blasé about insane Trumpist rants. And what can you even say about people like Rush Limbaugh — who Trump gave the Presidential Medal of Freedom? A few months ago he was calling Covid-19 a hoax, no worse than the common cold, which was being “weaponized” (they do love that word) against his president. Now he says we should emulate the Donner Party, which turned to cannibalism when the going got tough. There are a couple of reasons the pandemic has amplified the right’s paranoia. One is that it has transformed the electoral landscape. Even in February Trump was generally a bit behind in national polls. But the Electoral College worked in his favor, and as late as April people on Wall Street were sure he would win. Now he’s at a huge disadvantage, for all the right reasons. Beyond that, however, Trump’s failure on Covid-19 has been so comprehensive, so total, that his supporters can’t process it. Presidents are often given credit or blame for things they can’t control; except in a time of crisis that includes the economy, which is driven more by impersonal forces and Federal Reserve policy than by the guy who happens to sit in the White House. But responding to national emergencies is very much the president’s responsibility. Nor can Trump and his supporters credibly claim that he did as well as anyone could have expected: U.S. performance has fallen so far short of what other wealthy countries have managed — we’re dying 10 times faster than Europeans, and we’re going back into lockdown as other countries return to more or less normal life — that it’s hard to make excuses. Think about what this means if you’re a Trump supporter. To admit seeing what’s right in front of your eyes means admitting that you’ve been a fool: Everything Trump’s critics said, everything they warned about, has turned out to be true, and you were blind to the obvious. There may be a few people able to face this reality, learn from it, and move on. But most people can’t handle it. Someday they may manage to convince themselves that they never supported Trump in the first place. For now, however, their only recourse is to insist that it’s all lies, that there’s a vast deep state conspiracy to get their hero. Paranoia strikes deep, especially when it’s all you’ve got. |

Attorney General Barr: BOGUS “Russiagate” Scandal
Attorney General William P. Barr Before the House Judiciary Committee Washington, DC ~ Tuesday, July 28, 2020 ”Ever since I made it clear that I was going to do everything I could to get to the bottom of the grave abuses involved in the bogus “Russiagate” scandal, many of the Democrats on this Committee have attempted to discredit me by conjuring up a narrative that I am simply the President’s factotum who disposes of criminal cases according to his instructions. Judging from the letter inviting me to this hearing, that appears to be your agenda today.“ |

Jim Jordan: so Mr. Durham is looking at how the whole Trump-Russia thing started. You have another US attorney, can you give us that attorneys name? Bill Barr: John Bash of Texas JJ: John Bash of Texas is looking specifically at the fact BB: at unmasking Jim Jordan: 38 people, 49 times unmasked Michael Flynn‘s name and probably other unmasking that took place in the final days of the Obama/Biden administration...is that accurate? Bill Barr: actually a much longer period of time JJ: even before that? BB: yes |
"With Universal Mail-In Voting (not Absentee Voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history. It will be a great embarrassment to the USA. Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote???"
Trump shitting himself cos he's realised there's a good chance he might lose the election. Imagine if Obama had suggested the same under similar circumstances. |

As we hit the final day of July, I thought this would be a good time to reflect on what has transpired. Just this week Attorney General William Barr testified before Congress that the Department of Justice has multiple investigations into spying and unmasking by the Obama Administration and wether this should lead to criminal charges.
It was the final week of July 2019 when Robbert Mueller testified before Congress proclaiming that he didn’t use the word —collusion— because it’s not a legal term! Page 203 May 2018 Quote:

And while some of you here didn’t understand that collusion wasn’t illegal, conspiracy is illegal and I have NO DOUBTS Attorney General Barr’s investigators will prove that Barack Obama, Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton actively participated in the unmasking and spying against General Flynn and the Donald Trump campaign! Page 304 February 2019 Quote:
It’s important to remember that Hillary Clinton paid for the fake dossier and that information was used to perpetrate fraud upon the FISA court and of course that led to the Mueller investigation. Page 366 July 2019 Quote:

Take a look at the last quote: Former Federal Prosecutor on Mueller: 'He Clearly Did Not Run This Investigation'.” Over two years and $30+ million dollars wasted because Barak Obama, Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton and the FBI wanted to fabricate a Trump-Russia narrative that many of the free minded freethinkers here at SYG swallowed hook line and sinker. TALK ABOUT CONSPIRACY!!! Someone tell Skuj to pull his head out of the sand and everyone pop some popcorn because this Wednesday, August 5th, Former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates will testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee and it’s going to be epic......everyone have a great weekend!!! |

Love this. Cos it's you basically ignoring every corrupt this Trump and his administration has ever done. Don't remember Obama getting fined $2 million for stealing from a fucking charity. That's just one thing in a BIG long list. Sit down before you make yourself look silly. Oops, too late. |
You know, since we want Twitter and Facebook to stop being vehicles for lies, can't we take down Peltor's and Skunk's SYG accounts? They're spreading blatant horseshit, factually untrue bullcrap, not just moronic opinions.
Impeach 'em, remove 'em, make them drink a bleach cocktail and stick a red lightbulb up their rears. |

This is what it looks like when someone can’t handle the TRUTH!!! I’ve said it NUMEROUS times before and it still stands today, quote and replay any “factually untrue bull crap” and I’ll be happy to discuss it! And if proven to be actually false and not just your disagreed opinion, I’ll delete it! |
Quote:
False. You mutants immediately discredit the source. Nevermind that you take your shit from Fox, The New York Post, Russian press (!), the goddamn Bible (sheezus) or seriously fucked-up conspiracy theories websites and tweets - Lawd forbid if we quote The Washington Post, The New York Times, CNN, The Guardian, or even The Economist and The Wall Street Journal (fuck me). And then comes false balance, false equivalence and argument to moderation from you - "you have your links, we have ours". That line of thinking is what got us in this putrid mess. One word, morons: accountability. When Obama was a presidential candidate, your sources said the end of civilization was coming. It didn't. But hey, you said "it was coming", so then with Hillary it was coming, now with Biden it is coming. You're the never-wrongers, accountable to no one - keep bringing on the lies, some of them gotta stick, and if the events are so big that they overwhelm them, nope, we never said 'em. The media I usually quote (the "fake news" one, the "lamestream" one, so you dotards can understand what I'm referring to - even if I almost always include an extra link to all sources listed on Google News at a given moment) IS accountable. And it just has to be particularly accountable in this era, because since they're under attack by your Dear Leader 57 times a day, any factual mistake will result in handing your wannabe dictator a weapon of mass destruction against them. If they fuck up they have to own it, and they do by printing/posting a correction, even if it's about something basically superfluous to the story. Having explained this (which is elemental stuff, really, I'm not discovering anything), back to your post above: you'll never "be happy to discuss", much less admit to be "proven actually false". You quote the BIBLE in what should be a serious back-and-forth for fuck's sakes. Talking to a Taliban asshole would be just as rewarding. |
