Impeachment's polling pretty high among citizens. 44% independents. 78% democrats, 18% republicans. I think she's waiting until the number's above 50% for independents. Mind you, Nixon impeachment at the start was only polled at 18% public support.

Source? I call bullshit.

"Most Americans remain opposed to impeachment, with 37% saying President Donald Trump should be removed from office and 57% saying he should not, according to a poll released Wednesday."

Wonder how long this impeachment will take? I'm guessing 3-5 year investigation.

Look ma, more politically motivated accusations without evidence. Keep digging that hole dems, you are doing this country and the world a favor.

Shit was fine under Obama's term, then Trump come into office and brought the idiots with him. Things will get better when a Democrat's back in office.

Just because the problems were hidden and ignored under Obama's term doesn't make anything better. Those "idiots" you are referring to also voted for Obama. They saw how horrible of a job he and his party did and revoked their support and supported some one with a stiff counter strategy to Obama's failed policies. This isn't some right wing up rising out of nowhere, they were always there.

They gave the left a chance and they failed miserably, now they are standing up and saying fuck you this is our country and taking it back from the Marxist collectivist loons. As far as Democrats taking control again, you'd be lucky to see that happen again in your lifetime, because they have immolated every ounce of credibility that had, and the fire is just getting warmed up.

The funny bit is the 16 year old "pawn" is more educated than half this forum Wink

If you mean the kind of "education" you would get in re-education camps, you are absolutely right. That poor girl has been traumatized, manipulated, brainwashed, and paraded around all over the world to sell a narrative designed to introduce Communism and wealth redistribution. It has nothing to do with protecting the environment.

When you can't argue any of the facts presented, attack the character of the one presenting it. Anyone actually familiar with his work knows that is horse shit. You might as well have just called him a Nazi bigot homophobe and ran away screeching REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

He is neither far right, nor "white nationalist", racist or supremacist. Just because far left Canadian loons are populating his wikipedia page with lies because he doesn't bow to their Marxist collectivist insanity from where you copied that from doesn't make any of those accusations true. You have no argument of your own, so in your usual pathetic form you are forced to smear the character of the person presenting the information that is completely verifiable by the litany of 3rd party sources he has provided in the video description.

How much longer will not only this behavior, but those supporting this behavior be allowed to continue abusing their DT status here?

You are the person who has encouraged my behavior the most.  You kept handing me shovels, remember?   Tongue  No one else cares.

So how much longer will OG be allowed to support this and abuse his DT position?

That's right Vod, everyone else is responsible for your behavior. You have no room to accuse anyone of abusing their position on the default trust after your YEARS long pattern of abuse. Vod has made it abundantly clear he intends to continue his abusive behavior, and he will do so because this community refuses to hold him accountable and strip that authority from him. The current default trust list is mostly populated with people more interested in preserving their position on it rather than preserving the standards they pretend to uphold for it.

1. Lender as service provider:

Lend us UP to 5BTC with 10% monthly payback + 5% monthly interest.
We can give API access + EMAIL +PASSWORD of the trading account managing the funds as collateral so you can always keep an eye on the funds.
This results in almost 30% risk free profit for the lender. 2 year of data shows the bot can easily handle the interest rate, please download and check for yourself.[/s]

This looks like a promise to repay a loan principle 10% per month + 5% monthly interest no matter if the bot works or not, no?

This is not a loan per-se , it's more like an investment,  simply because the only way CryptoSparks is going to repay the loan back to the lender is IF the bot works , if the bot does not work there will be no money left to repay the loan, CryptoSparks then will have one of two options

1-Run away and disappear
2-Borrow more money from other investors/lenders in order to repay the the previous interest, and then if the bot fails again , he will need to borrow more money again and again until he gets to the point of no going back and then he simply run away with whatever money left.

I have been day trading Forex and Crypto for long enough and I can tell you for sure that , anyone who has a working bot , especially a bot that has a similar success rate to the alleged results presented by CryptoSparks would not be looking to promote it on this forum, if he is so certain that the bot works he would sell his wife and kids and trade with 100x leverage for 2-4 weeks and become instantly rich.

CryptoSparks might not be attempting to scam, but he sure is willing to risk people's money without showing them the complete risks and consequences of using a trading bot especially on Bitmex, so this can also be considered unethical and probably illegal in many places.

In the best case scenario CryptoSparks is simply asking for 5BTC loan that has 50/50 chance of repaying, which is risky enough to be flagged for, some of those feedback are not appropriate , but the flag is more right than wrong.

Again, do you have any evidence of malpractice or just more speculation and suspicion?

"bob123 alleges: Due largely to the factors mentioned in this topic, I believe that anyone dealing with CryptoSparks is at a high risk of losing money, and guests would be well-advised to avoid doing so. This determination is based on concrete red flags which any knowledgeable & reasonable forum user should agree with, and it is not based on the user's opinions."

The flag requires "concrete red flags", I.E. evidence, not just suspicion. This is not a valid flag.

@TECSHARE
@OgNasty

Thanks for the input on this. All good information. I'll round 'em all up, get some good pictures, and go from there with it.

I wouldn't try a gun on here myself. Seems like you'd be asking for trouble doing that. To each his own though   Wink definitely support the freedom to do whatever the hell you want with your own property.

Every gun seller I have seen on this forum is obeying both state and federal laws requiring firearms be transferred to a federally licensed gun dealer per regulatory requirements. There is no reason they would be inviting trouble because they accept Bitcoin as payment as long as the law is being followed. I should add too, I have seen tasers for sale here in the past on multiple occasions, and there were no issues.

Theymos has made his position clear in the past. As long as items being sold are legal in the buyer and the seller's jurisdiction, he will not interfere. There may be a few small exceptions for liability sake of meeting the laws of the jurisdiction of The United States where the forum is (kind of) based, but this is not one of them. Tasers are widely available in the US to anyone over 18 in most states.

Cryptoji, I can assure you that the fact that you refuse to respond to these accusations publicly alone is enough to make your reputation completely worthless. You can make backroom threats all you like, but unless you present your argument and address these accusations you and your project are done here and are going to have to start over under a new identity. Or you could pay your debts and salvage what remains of your reputation that is dwindling by the second.
3412  Other / Politics & Society / Re: REEE: [US Only] Impeachment Vote on: September 27, 2019, 05:45:16 PM
You would think at this point, these 'investigations' would be illegal. Sure you can investigate someone when there is suspicion of a crime but when does it become harrasment?

I'm sure Washington Democrats would answer that there has been suspicion of crimes all along, and it is their duty to carry out such investigations. Unfortunately for them they are indeed stigmatized with a bit of "Boy who cried wolf" syndrome for constantly shitting their pants about everything Trump has done over the last 3 years. So if something actually damning did happen, nobody is going to believe them.

I have yet to see anybody formally accuse Biden of a crime.

I know you are a fan of using suspicion alone as a basis for condemning people, but the judicial system requires facts, none of which the Democrat party has ever presented to support their position. It is their duty to serve the nation, not to erase the 2016 election results at all costs. The stigma they have is completely of their own creation. If they actually had any facts or evidence to present people would listen, but they never do.

Biden most certainly has been accused of many well documented crimes. Regarding legal action never being taken against Biden, who are you going to make a report to about a mob boss when you know he owns the sheriff? All that will mean is your ass. That is of course until a new sheriff is in town who is willing and able to bring these crimes to light. Most people don't understand the depth of corruption we are talking about here.

The USA has suffered an 8 year long (or longer) coup, and those responsible assumed they would again have control in 2016, but they failed. Now that those with the genuine interests of Americans at heart are again in control, there still remains many of the old corrupt guard still in place, and there is about to be a controlled burn to route them out and bring their complicity in this plot to light.  Why would people complicit in these crimes work to expose them? This goes for the media as well.

She realized that impeaching Trump for this Ukraine thing is a trap. It will not only fail to get the requisite votes, but will put most of the democrat party on record as judging this as an impeachable offense. At that point all Trump has to do is drop all the documentation of Biden and Obama's past activities doing even more than he was accused of, and the whole party will be boxed in an exposed as being corrupt, partisan, and self serving at the expense of the nation. The democrat party has painted themselves into a corner with their frothing hysterical obsession over getting Trump.
3414  Other / Politics & Society / Re: REEE: [US Only] Impeachment Vote on: September 27, 2019, 09:08:58 AM

If the guy was fired because of pressure from the US former administration related to the VP's son's affairs, I would like to see him reinstated with full back pay.

This has been overlooked in the discussion, and yet the prosecutor does seem to be an innocent victim in these power plays.

Then again the situation may have been more complex than that and we don't have the whole story. For example  Biden may have been confronted with a coercive demand and responded with a bigger coercive demand.

This is a fair and logical viewpoint. Yes, its true none of us know exactly what happened, and its easier to make assumptions and jump to conclusions based on our own political leanings.

The way I read thing was the prosecutor was (supposed to be) fired for being corrupt and reasons wholly unrelated to Biden's son, and of course he would say otherwise in an official statement. But we just don't know the whole story at this point.

Its going to be hard to find a non-partisan source that can put all the information together without introducing political bias; perhaps impossible.

It was personally fun for me to watch Adam Schiff grill Joseph McGuire, from an entertainment standpoint, and I still believe Trump is going to come out of this a lot more battered than Biden, but we can only wait and see what happens next.

What could have Ukraine possibly have used to coerce Biden unless he was up to something illegal? This false equivalency as if this could go either way is absolutely retarded. The corruption from the Bidens has long been documented and available to anyone who doesn't expect to be spoon fed like an invalid. The ENTIRE PURPOSE of pointing the finger at Trump here is the classic Saul Alinsky 101 tactic of accusing your opponents of the crimes you yourself are guilty of to confuse the situation and give any accusations the appearance of being empty and retaliatory when the exact opposite is true.

Trump didn't do a damned thing wrong in this case, or the thousands of other proven empty accusations against him. The corrupt old guard is staring down the end of a rope and are gasping for their last breaths of air trying desperately to save their own asses by creating as much chaos and confusion as possible. The only people still entertaining this narrative are either confirming their bias or are too brain dead to have even a moderate mount of critical thought that some one else didn't instruct them to have. This has nothing to do with partisanship. This is about reality vs fiction, and this false equivalency is just an excuse to not have to think critically and to fence sit because it is more convenient to not pick sides and throw your hands up and pretend no one knows.

We have issues in this country that Congress can try to fix -- but we'll never get to any of that when the President is being investigated for 15 other things by all of the committess in Congress that are supposed to be working for the nation instead of working for their party above everything.

My opinion is that the Democrats are currently destroying their party.

If they believe they are "working for their party" that's foolish and naive.

Must feel great putting an Autistic girl who you can traumatize and manipulate on the front lines of your propaganda war so you can accuse anyone who criticizes it as attacking children.

You describing Baron Trump? mkay.
Barron Trump is not running around as a political mouthpiece. People threatened his life and advocated he be raped based on the sole fact he is Trump's son. Keep defending people who want to see Autistic children raped and murdered simply because of who their family is. It is a good look for you.

Using children as human shields is an increasingly common tactic for the left, this way any criticism of the policies they advocate for can be construed as an attack on a child. Remember David Hog? Remember how rabidly the left attacked anyone who criticized the policies he advocated for? Funny how the left are fine with calling for the murder of the Covington kids for example simply for having their own opinions in public, but simply criticizing one of their own is a travesty. If you are a public figure advocating for policy, you are no longer an innocent child bystander, and are at best a victim being abused to push policy.

Some of these include but are not limited to
1. The President being immensely powerful, being able to do whatever he wants with his pen and his phone.
2. Congress continuously failing to limit the deficit. Both parties yell about it when they don't hold the Presidency (or Congress) but when they actually take control they don't care enough to actually ensure the country is saved for long periods of time.
3. Congress fails to do much of anything.


1. Really? How about that measly 5B for the wall?
2. This is 100% the voters' fault.
3. A feature, not a bug.

Yeah, I think the President is wrong here. But many presidents before him have also abused the office of the Presidency -- so what do you want him to do? Sit there and be the one President in history that doesn't use the powers that Congress has literally handed over to him.

I wasn't attacking any one particular President in my post -- I was talking about overarching ideas.

Congress was supposed to do things -- even if it wasn't supposed to be done fast. They literally get little to nothing done due to hyper partianship and a gridlocked congress.

We have issues in this country that Congress can try to fix -- but we'll never get to any of that when the President is being investigated for 15 other things by all of the committess in Congress that are supposed to be working for the nation instead of working for their party above everything.

Lets assume for a second that the accusations of corruption against the Bidens are legitimate. How exactly should Trump have done this?
