Trump's rigging the law in the USA
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- Trump packed the Supreme Court of the USA with his mates, and now they’re returning the favour by granting him immunity for his actions when in office. Will he use that power to persecute those who he sees as his enemies? You’d be a fool to think otherwise.

It's taken them around 200 years to go from monarchical rule to maniacal rule.😮
Does anyone remember President Richard Nixon saying, "If the president does it, it isn't illegal."?
I remember President Nixon because Bowie mentioned him in a song. And he was a real crook.
@@therealrobertbirchallHe really was a crook.

As a US citizen I'm deeply saddened by what is happening in my country and worried about the future. I'm also very sorry to the rest of the world that it has come to this. I don't understand it and I don't know what we can do about it if he wins in Nov.
A deeply terrifying state to be in……..
What he is doing will make it possible to deal with corruption and the corrupt . That will never happen otherwise .
The law has always been rigged.
Law in the US seems remarkably malleable. Judges can look at the same facts and come up with totally different judgements.
I'm so happy I made productive decisions about my finances that changed my life forever,hoping to retire next year.. Investment should always be on any creative man's heart for success in life .
Thanks for the advice! I'm new to financial planning and wasn't sure where to start. Any tips on finding a reliable financial adviser or resource to guide beginners?
As a beginner, it's essential for you to have a mentor that is verified by finra and SEC to keep you accountable. I'm guided by a widely known financial consultant Stacey Macken
Stacey demonstrates an excellent understanding of market trends, making well informed decisions that leads to consistent profit
I remember giving her my first savings $20000 and she opened a brokerage account for me it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me.
Yes I can believed that, I got victory with her, was so sad after receiving the first pay knowing I invested so low with fear
Finally someone is identifying the key factors that will
ultimately shape our future here in the UK
there is a reason i have been calling him mango mussolini for the last 10 years or so
You are polarised too? It's easier than one thinks not to be easily led.
Give it a try.
The incompetence and corruption of this government are becoming increasingly ridiculous. I feel for people with disabilities who don't get the help they deserve. Thank you Laura Jennifer Reeves for keeping us financially informed! No matter how bad the economy gets, I'm so happy that I've been receiving $64,000 from my $15,000 investment every 14 days..
Wow, that is huge, how do you earn that much a month? I am 37 years old and have been looking for ways to be successful, please how??
I thank Laura Jennifer Reeves who has always been there to help me with detailed analysis and recommendations that I would not have had access to otherwise.
YES! That is exactly her name (Laura Jennifer Reeves). I saw her interview on CNN News and so many people highly recommended her and her trading skills❤️
I googled her and yes, she has captured my heart. She just got a new client
After raising 325k from trading with her, I bought a new house and car here in the states and also paid for my son's (Oscar) surgery, Glory be to God. Shalom
if it was bt chance how does he plan?
Have a chat with Robert Barnes. He may shed some light on this for you
I always wondered why they didn't prosecute Nixon.
Ford gave him a pardon.
It seems even this channel has been targetted by bot spammers now, i.e. the two comments (so far) with 20+ replies (all bots) promoting named financial advisors. Please report these to RUclips
When you do, youtube sends you the threatening message.
The tories tried to do something similar here
Yes…immensely concerning! And there will be huge ramifications for the UK and the world if Trump becomes president. It’s not our business…but certainly we need to have our eyes open and not ignore this.
Yes and this is what you have in the UK now, a Supreme Court and government blob that can work against the commons…shocking 😳
Welcome to Gotham
Ah, don't you mean Brandon, dude.
Will trump have the power to target enemies abroad and have them extradited to the USA - could he target Putin and if so would Putin take any notice?
Why would he target Putin? Don't you remember the press conference he did with Putin present in which he replied to a question about whether Putin interferred in the US elections and said "I don’t see any reason why it would be Russia.’ He later backtracked and said he meant "wouldn't".
He called Putin a genius
Would it be sensible for an incoming Labour Government to create a sovereign wealth fund to tax corporations to spend on social projects, e.g., new hospitals?
I believe the Norwegian Government has a Sovereign Wealth Wealth fund to spend on social projects, e.g., tunnels to replace ferries crossings?
The Norwegians payed for their wealth fund through their North Sea oil and gas industry. Unfortunately, Labour are looking to destroy the UKs hydrocarbon industry and we will then be reliant on foreign imports.
What’s important to note is it’s the dividends that it pays are the monies that are spent on projects, they don’t spend the money in the fund on anything other than stocks and shares.
The largest Sovereign Wealth fund in the world. But they get more North Sea gas and oil money that Britain does and under 5 million people. They have also been doing it for decades..... UK has missed the boat... The oil and gas is running and the the money frittered away on tax cuts for the rich.
Too late as gas & oil is running out. Thatcher & Co should have done it but they chose to give the money away in tax cuts & unemployment benefits i.e. The miners
Including all Norwegian pensions. But Labour won't do that. It's what's needed, but Starmer isn't Corbyn.
A weak argument all together.
Sorry, rigging the law is standard practice for both sides. Trump is just more brazen about it.
Really? Not many dead people voted for Trump.
He is more popular than ever now.
His supporters seem to love him the more you hate him, the more you point out his flaws, lies, frauds, etc, the better he does.
Perhaps you should try something intelligent instead.
Hurry up, November is on the horizon and the octogenarian is wondering if he'll even make it to dinnertime.
It's because the government has moved to a model of extortion.
He's not in office. You're deluded.
So must be all intellectuals in America who aren’t rabidly right wing then, because they’ve been saying the same thing. Trump’s niece Mary, who knows him better than most, is terrified of what might happen.
Give it a rest, this is simply TDS.
Trump nominated to three vacancies which happened to arise during his term, this is not 'packing'.
One of those could have been avoided if Bader-Ginsburg had retired during Obama's term when she knew she had terminal cancer but she chose to keep going in the full knowledge of what the consequence could be for her replacement if the presidency changed hands.
The weakest link of the court in terms of understanding its role in applying the Constitution to cases it decides to take on is Sotomayer whose amateurish dissent in the latest judgement on immunity for the office of POTUS appeared to have been written by interns and was rightly reproached by the Chief Justice.
Anyone still unsure of the true character of Biden should watch the appalling way he treated Clarence Thomas during his nomination hearings.
Yes, facts are good. However, they don’t seem to change the perceived realism of how Americans (or others in the same cultural sphere) feel.
We may intelligently hammer those facts, but that doesn’t seem to translate into the same _truth_ for people. Instead, they polarize, split, enrage and divide - also an observable fact. And even that is disputed, in desperate search for a “solution”.
That desperation is the basis of how people support authoritarianism - Whatever person is seen as “the savior”. It’s not about Trump - it’s about us.
You fail to mention that Obama’s choice for the Supreme Court did not even get a hearing.
Obviously a Trumpist🙄 Only 1 valid point about Ginsberg. Thomas has proven himself corrupt & Leonard Leo's waterboy.
@@eddyengland5398Yes, Mitch McConnell said it was wrong to appoint a new justice in the last year of a President’s term.
Then the Republican majority (including Mitch) rushed Amy Coney Barrett’s appointment 38 days before the end of Trump’s presidency.
@thefastandthedead1769 You either misunderstand or misrepresent the SC opinion and like justice Sotomayer should reacquaint yourself with the Declaration of Independence which was written expressly to guard against absolute Royal power, guaranteeing citizens of the united States the Right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
Change of law - slowly over years - is always the way societies are molded into what they become.
Sometimes, because leaders (corporate, political, entitled…) are pushed by the mass of people - other times because the same leaders can fearlessly ignore the same mass of people.
This is true whether the area (nation, state, country = sovereign jurisdiction) is a de facto, de jure or not at all a _democacy._
The future outcome depends on how ordinary people are able to put words to the changes - that their basic ontology allows for a language to express and critique ever present legislative changes.
Intuition and sense of being is enough. Numbers, money, issues or pure reductionism obviously don’t help - as no “western entity” has escaped these 40 years of change, or last decades of observable societal decay.
The path we’re on has a direction. Do we have the language to describe it better than our current political economy allows? If so - use it!
Crikey, we could get 100's of thousands of immigrants on boats making journeys across the Atlantic. How many do you think Clacton can take?
Canada would be a better bet. Or maybe Mexico. They had better start building that wall. Remember how Trump said that he would make Mexico pay for the wall? But yes, for some, the bright lights of Clacton may prove to be too alluring.
Stick with British politics...it's not really our business
Of course it's our business. Whether we like it or not, the US is still the leader of the free world and what happens in Washington matters very much. What worries me most is Trump's appeasing tendency towards Putin which could lead disastrously to a far wider war in Europe.
By the way I recommend the brief pithy videos of Beau of the Fifth Column as an indicator of the US left's position.
Trump is not aiming to be a king he is aiming to be in effect a Fuhrer and that is dangerous for the whole world
@@marijo1951 leader of the free world 😂
@@keithparker1346 Cliché but true.
Keeping tabs and critiquing the politics of a NATO ally and trade partner that has the potential to elect a president who is a convicted felon and rapist*, and who would command the largest and most advanced military in history while holding the powers of an absolute monarch, and who has openly stated would take retribution on his critics, is most certainly ours and Richard's business.
*The judge in the Carroll vs. Trump trial has been emphatically and unambiguously clear that that is what the jury unanimously decided Trump did to E Jean Carroll.
Come off it, Richard. This hysterical strain of uncontextualised puff only serves to make you look a fool. Pass on the message; It doesn't fly.
Trumpist 🙄
Do tell. What is the context? All those “political” charges against Trump?
Like the documents case. A case so clear you can see it from space, yet Judge Cannon prevaricates at every opportunity.
Yes there is context, and that context is Trump supporting justices trying to give Trump immunity from answering for his crimes, and by at least helping him to run down the clock, they may well succeed.
Such a shame to see such an abuse of the US constitution. What a shameful outcome for a once proud republic that it has now divested itself of protection from one who would be King (even if just for a day, perhaps on Fifth Avenue).
@strandedstarfish @zetectic7968 Gentlemen, I'm neither a nationalist, an American style libertarian, or any kind of fool that could be lead up the garden path by the dog-whistle rhetoric of Mr Trump, or Mr Farage. But then again, nor am I the kind of fool who could be lead into the high chaparral by the Washington beltway's perverse narrative dialectic. I think it would serve you both well to bare in mind that Trump did not institute an American reich during his first term (the long grass of the Jan 6 charade notwithstanding), that his campaign was backed by all the usual suspects, and that the electoral college must endorse the president, just as the senate must approve presidential nominees.
The awful truth is that you couldn't put a cigarette paper between the policies of Biden and those of Trump, and that Biden has written and undersigned a whole host of legislation that could quite reasonably be characterised as fascistic in nature. As far as I can see, the only reason the American political class despise Trump so vehemently is because he says the quiet part out loud; He's the establishment with its mask off. Moreover, I suspect it's more the isolationist rhetoric of Trump than his demagoguery which chills the blood of Liberals.

Nixon was so close. He just was not shameless enough 😂
Rigging? He was elected. This guy did not read the supreme court decision and his video is complete ignorance.
Trump is paranoia in the extream!!
Not really. A huge number of people are against him.
The notion that criticism of the man who watched TV, and did diddly squat to call off his supporters from attacking the Capitol, is “paranoia”, is absurd, cultist nonsense.
@@grahamthomson6969 No, a lot of people don't like democracy.
Rubbish
