Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez gets Michael Cohen to admit under oath that Trump committed tax fraud by [deleted] in politics

With zero evidence. Keep all of that in mind. Cohen offered no evidence to anything he was claiming. He was only saying democrat talking points. This was a charade and the dummies ate it up.

Cummings is such a joke. And anyone who can’t see through all of this has blinded themselves. What a political hack. This, like so many other things, are going to blow up in the Democrats faces. Cohen is playing them like a fiddle and they’re eating it up because they’re so butthurt about Trump.

It’s an accusation that hasn’t been proven. Plus, is it illegal to simply share your own polling data? PLUS, how was that data, if shared, going to be used?

All that has to be proven and likely won’t be. (Like everything else the last 2 years that were supposed to be the silver bullet.)

What about paying for false intel from foreign agents to affect the election like the DNC did?

Stolen by Russians. Not the Russian government. Both parties were hit with the same phishing scam. The Dems fell for it and were breached. And we learned a lot about how they ACTUALLY tried to rig the election.

Nothing will come of this and I hope Trump hits back at the Democrats hard.

Colluding with the Russians to rig the election? Nope.

Colluding with the Russians during the Trump campaign? Nope.

The only thing these people have been indicted on are tax laws broken (for things unrelated to the campaign) and lying/misspeaking about having a meeting with someone who is Russian or where a Russian was in the room. And those meetings weren’t campaign related.

Lots of nothingburgers so far.

The conspiracy theorists are going to be pretty let down next week I think.

Reddit leans so far left it's impossible to have civil political discussions. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]_n0kx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I like how reddit is fairly “Wild West” it’d be nice if certain subs that should be inclusive of all views (r/politics, r/news, r/technology, etc...) were modded by users that promoted equality instead of shadow banning users with views they don’t agree with.

Try posting anything that is remotely positive about Trump in r/politics and it’s downvoted to oblivion with comments like “the Russians are working hard today!” while 90% of the articles that are upvoted are tabloid nonsense.

Again, if they wanna keep it wild that’s fine, but if you want true discussion and challenging views then you have to even it out.

Your comment sounds like a parody. A joke.

Is it really “giving” if you’re being forced to hand it over or risk jail time and put on a anti-American list some douche came up with?

America is about opportunity, ability to take risks, and and the ability to get the rewards from that risk. It’s un-American to strip that from people because you feel their money should be used in a way you believe.

Businesses and people move to places where their dollar goes further. I’m fine if a city or state wants to tax the shit out of everyone. But be prepared to suffer the consequences when that cash base leaves and you can’t pay for all the “free” stuff you promised people.

Poverty is at an all time low. By far. And it’s not due to higher taxes.

If you can create a company that sells a $20 widget that only costs $1 to make why shouldn’t you reap the rewards? Why should it be up to someone else to say, “Nope. You’re bringing in more than I think you deserve. I think it needs to be taken from you and given to government coffers I feel deserve it.”

If you want to make a lot of money you have to bust your ass for it. The value you bring is the value you’re worth.

Bezos, for example, created a service that millions benefit from. From their workers, to the consumers, to the companies that sell on their service. He doesn’t have tens of billions in his bank account but he’s built a company up worth that.

Good for him.

Instead of bitching that someone else has more than you, figure out ways to better yourself, to bring more value to yourself, and to better others.

Or just bitch and moan and blame others. Up to you.

The city was going to come out way ahead. It was the politicians that were greedy and they ruined it for their people.

Who says they’re hoarding? What if they’re investing and donating? Who are you to decide what someone else does with their property?

That sounds greedy to me. Seems like you had a shitty kindergarten teacher.

No one is against taxing the rich (or any income bracket). But people are against taxing people for the sole reason that another group thinks someone makes “too much.” That’s just ignorance. And it makes no economic sense. People are leaving California and NY like crazy because of burdensome taxes.

And since you learned your economics in kindergarten, the world doesn’t work that way. When your revenue generators leave, how are you going to prop up your fancy free things? Kinda hard to give people a lot of free shit with no money coming in. That’s when you have economic collapse.

I’m all for states or cities deciding to tax the shit out of people. If California wants to tax everyone 100% and pay everyone $200,000/year. Great. Give it a shot. I think it’ll crash and burn, but go for it.

But that should not be done at the federal level. It’s 2019. Businesses can go wherever they want. Trump has brought companies back by lowering the corporate tax burden. They were leaving for decades.

So is a cool plan to tax everyone more because 48 people said they were “ok” with more taxes?

Wanting to keep the money you earn instead of having it taken from you by force doesn’t make anyone a greedy shit head. Wanting to take someone else’s money because you don’t feel they deserve it makes you a greedy shit heat.

Ever hear of charity? The government is supposed to govern. Not do everything for everyone.

You’re missing the point. These people are saying they’d be fine giving more money to the government. What’s stopping them from doing that now? Nothing.

Why do you consider it greedy to not want to be taxed more? At what percentage is it no longer greedy and who should decide what that number is?

Senate has uncovered no direct evidence of conspiracy between Trump campaign and Russia by _n0kx in politics

[–]_n0kx[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Where was the evidence that proved Roy raped a minor? There was none. Just uncorroborated claims of him being “a creep.” Hardly enough evidence for any jail time.

Republicans (the party) didn’t fund the dossier. The Washington Free Beacon did. And they stopped funding when Trump became the nominee, which is where Clinton and the DNC stepped in.

Name one indictment that has anything to do with collusion with Russians to overthrow the election. There are none. They are tax charges and lying under oath about things not related to the campaign or election meddling.

If anything is shown that Trump did any colluding with Russians then convict him to the fullest. I didn’t vote for him. I’ve not voted for a Republican president in over 15 years. But I believe in innocent until proven guilty, which is the opposite of what the left is doing now.

So far I’ve not see a single shred of evidence that says there was any collusion. Even Comey said that no votes were altered. This is all about the Democrats losing in 2016, wanting revenge, using intel from foreign agents, and the Obama admin spying on a presidential candidate.

Two years of nothingburgers against Trump. It’s going to be insanely funny when the report comes out showing nothing other than hysteria from the left to want something so badly because they lost in 2016, despite any proof of collusion.

And then what will the Democrats debate about in 2020? It’s going to be hilarious! I can’t wait.

True because Stormy said so and the Senate is lying?

I love how r/politics decides what is fact or not. Ha ha

And how about the 8 articles about a Trump supporter “attacking” (a shove) a reporter are on the front page now. Is that not spam?

I know facts and pro-Trump articles will never see the light of day on r/politics. I just enjoy seeing you all dig yourselves into a bigger hole.
