You being too lazy to search for threads containing "ISS" sheds light on your ability to process information.

It isn't good.

And it is a fact you have no independently verified evidence. The evidence you provide is made up by someone else.

LD, Trump, whether you like it or not, is a recognized authority.

You are here, on an internet forum, engaged in the process of vetting all of his work.

At the same time, trying to justify a shit job of vetting performed by a prestigious law firm...

Think about how these two factual statements belie your overall written analysis...

Once you contract a firm, the work they perform should then be vetted. I do not know the history of Fusion GPS, but I do know that PerkinsCole did not sufficiently vet the Steele Dossier. The fact the Republicans first brought in Fusion  GPS is irrelevant.

Apples to oranges, LD.

Do you have any links to any formal corporation that produced material about PizzaGate?

Has there been any formal pronouncement from any reputable authority concerning any allegations made by a formal corporation concerning PizzaGate?

If so, then yeah...10 years.

I didn't state the law firm created the Steel Dossier.

Law firms, their partners, and associates, have a legal and ethical responsibility to hire and sufficiently vet persons or firms with which they will do legitimate business. Perkins Cole absolutely failed to do this when they contracted with Fusion GPS.

Whether any of the fallout in this particular case was illegal (it absolutely should be, as I am sure you will agree), is not relevant to the EO Trump signed.

I appreciate the retraction.

However, the characterization you offered that the law firm was banned because it "represented political enemies," is nowhere near factual. That law firm was banned due to soliciting and facilitating the production of written materials designed to publically smear a citizen of the United States.

I hope you would agree that any law firm engaging in such a practice would be disbanded, all of the participating lawyers be disbarred, and the full partnership and board of directors be jailed for a period of no less than 10 years.

I do not know enough about the issue at this time to provide a label, contrary to your attempt to place me in some sort of bucket. Further, you are already aware I have openly disagreed with at least two or three of the actions Trump has taken, one of them in this term.

But from your first link, I can agree with this statement made by Lutnick, not Trump:
“What we have to do is stop sending money to someone who’s not hurt, who’s on disability for 50 years,” he claimed. “It’s ridiculous, and they have another job.”

We also find this: "Trump has vowed not to cut Social Security benefits, however. Lutnick also said on Thursday that he’s against raising the retirement age — a proposal some Republicans have floated in Congress as a way to help shore up solvency for the program."

So, I ask you: Did you actually read that goddamn article?

I also ask: Are you still clinging to the notion the Steele dossier was a legitimate report?

He also lies again when he claims I haven't bothered to see the ISS, when I am on written record in this forum as having done so.

Do you know what the word "if" means? 
I don't know what you have or haven't done, I can't remember every post you make.
OK, so you've seen it. Great, so you acknowledge it's there. Why are you still a flat earther then?

Ooh...What happened to the demands for "researching and verifying!?!?!" You know, something so simple as searching the very forum threads in which you are posting!?!?!

Pro tip:
I have learned

enough basic physics to understand why that's bollocks

to believe an object I can see in the sky over my head tells me absolutely anything about the shape of the flat earth plane under my feet, unlike others I will not name.

Once again, AATW offers the real existence of a terrestrial-based land marsupial as a comparative thought experiment to the visual land-based sightings of the ISS as equivalent in form. Pro-tip: They are not.

He also lies again when he claims I haven't bothered to see the ISS, when I am on written record in this forum as having done so.

It is sad he needs to resort to these type of posts. He should pay heed to his own words and just leave.

Yeah, I know...

Just like the globesters here, he whines about fucking everything...

He really should just ignore the asshats who attack him and just keep pressing forward with his agenda.

Eliminate taxes on tips, Social Security, and overtime, implement reciprocal tariffs like he said he would, and just sit back and watch the results.

Keep up with the rate of press events like he has.

Pretty positive results so far.

But if what he is describing in your video is taking place, then Trump is absolutely correct. What he describes is actually illegal and it should stop.

All the media are entirely free to publish (pick your favorite form...radio, print, broadcast TV, internet forum, blog, Youtube video, etc.) whatever the living hell they want to about Trump: what he does, what he says, what he writes, what he eats, when he shits, how he shits, etc, and they have been 24/7, eight goddamn days a week.

You can read all about it, hear all about it, see all about it, everywhere and all the time.

Trump loves the fucking media attention, all the time, good or bad.

Posting that Trump is anti-press is just plain, pure, goddamn ridiculous, and an outright fucking lie.

Freedom of the press isn’t about how many questions Trump answers.  It’s about which members of the press are allowed to ask which questions and what they get to say about the answers.Every President must answer every question from every news agency ALL THE TIME!!!

In a comparison between answering questions from the press and not answering questions from the press, 9 out of 10 working dads agree that answering questions from the press exhibits more freedom of the press than does not answering questions from the press.

As a working Dad, I'm going to tell you... no.  As markjo put, freedom of the press means the ability for the press to ask questions freely and print material freely, not how many questions Trump answers.  If he answers a million questions about how great he is, how great his policy is, and all from just one network... that's not freedom of the press.I AGREE WITH SPACEMAN SPIFF!!! Trump has routinely answered questions from only ONE NEWS AGENCY!!!

FTFY BOTH!!!

It isn't trolling according to LD, when a president who has answered over 1500 questions from the press in 57 days, is somehow against freedom of the press.

And that is questions he has personally answered, not even counting the number of press briefings given by his administration!

LD: "hang Pence" is murder.

No, LD.

Words do not equal murder.

And no one is required to certify an election.

You know absolute jack-shit about the US Constitution and Pence is a traitor to the US, along with you and many others.
