Can you provide some actual examples that makes Obama like George W? I mean, with saying people love him, and that he's more intelligent, more charismatic and a better speaker, but not going into anything where he'd be corrupt like GW makes it sounds like you think he's just as bad "just because".
You mean, things that began under Bush and got carried over to the next president for how deep they were? Heck, Obama made that deal with Iran, which Trump then ripped up that led us to this predicament with the strait (mainly because of the hold that Israel has on Trump). GWB was known for preemptive military intervention, particularly with Iraq and Afghanistan. Obama was known for diplomacy and multilateral agreements.
Yes, they for sure began with George... Isn't he supposed to be the other end of the scale, or halfway across at least (right and extreme right?).
You can have a Twitter (or Truth nowadays, Trump doesn’t do much on X) account for free, you have access to anything he says. Are you accusing him of a pump and dump when the PLTR ticker is up nearly 1390% up since 2020? Okay. I’m sorry that you didn’t buy in time, I wish I held on to my shares for a bit longer myself. Are you accusing him of publishing false information? Palantir *did* get contracted by the federal government. I’m not sure what kind of response you’re expecting. Consider following the Pelosi Tracker if you’re looking for guaranteed gains.
The lawsuit refers explicitly to actions taken by the previous administration. Donald Trump the president and chief executive is not equivalent to Donald Trump the private citizen.
Wow, this just smacks of dishonesty and bad faith. 'You can also see the posts' isn't defense against the corruption. By that logic, insider trading would be fine as long as the insider tweeted right before executing the trade.
The leak took place between 2018 and 2020. So which administration are you talking about?
I was wondering when he said that too. It was 100% during his time in office.
You obviously want to get a very specific response about something I don’t care about. People have been making bank by observing the market, including moves made by politicians and high-profile investors, for as long as the exchange existed. You’re making a lot of accusations with not a lot to support them.
Charles E. Littlejohn was investigated in 2022 and prosecuted in 2023, he was convicted for leaking financial data of multiple individuals, including Trump. At the time the IRS and the Department of Treasury denied any wrongdoing as organisations and laid the blame solely on the leaker. Seeking accountability for a big fuck-up is not unusual. He may have been hired in 2017, but that’s not when the investigation took place or when the legal process played out.
The leak was known and reported before Biden ever took office. It was public knowledge. You are literally giving Trump's administration a pass on this for doing nothing, while blaming Biden's administrations for having done SOMETHING.
I’m sure the IRS and the Department of Treasury sucked ass under both presidents, I’m just stating the facts of the investigation. The DOJ passed the buck at the time instead of seeking accountability from the individuals who should’ve noticed sooner that one of their agents is illegally collecting data on private citizens with the intent to disseminate. Both Trump and Biden were Chief Executives, but neither was actually overseeing the day-to-day operations of Internal Revenue *or* the DOJ, those functions are delegated.
The fact is, it happened under Trump's watch, and he and his administration did jack-shit about it, and now he's going after Biden's administration for something his own ignored. Just the fact he's going after Biden's administration means he could have gone after his own back then. But he didn't. That alone reeks of foul play.
As I've said in previous channels, I'm here for the laughs at this point. I don't expect any of you to have an epiphany at this point that you've hitched your wagon to one of the worst people in the world. You've defended Jan 6th. You've defended the pardoning of those traitors. I point out dumb or illegal shit that Trump has done, then I observe the bootlickers twist themselves in pretzels to defend it no matter how dumb or illegal it is. It's a hobby that just keeps on getting funnier.
Who’s “any of you”? You’re talking to me, one person. Have fun chasing strawmen though. Big time “he can’t keep getting away with this!
” vibes Jesse, you sure sound like you’re here for fun. I don’t care about Trump dunking on the IRS, I don’t know what to tell you. In fact, I encourage all citizens to dunk on the IRS at any available opportunity.The man was only charged in 2023, the leak was anonymous, IIRC. I’m not entirely sure when the identity of the leaker was discovered. IRS under Trump failed to adequately vet a contractor, the DoT under Biden refused to take accountability upon completing its internal investigation and the DOJ, once again under Trump, is correcting those mistakes by dunking on the IRS and providing restitution to the aggrieved parties.
I @'ed the four lowest common denominators here that seem to have no bottom, so I was referring to you as a group. You're one of the most brazen and pretzel shaped though.
The thought that you would clearly defend Trump even if there was a video that was released? It's not so much of a strawman and more of an inevitability at this point.
Right, dunking on the IRS, which he is in control of with a DOJ that he is in control of. All at the cost of the taxpayer. Ie: You. As mentioned though, there were over 400,000 people's data leaked. Do they all deserve 1.8 billion as well?
Predictable, as always.
You're still focused on when he was charged as if that's all that matters to focus the blame on Biden's administration, and not when this all first came out. Anonymous or not, Trump's administration did nothing when they could/should have when it was first discovered that the IRS disclosed his information without authorization during Trump's first term. They didn't seek out New York Times and ProPublica which reported the leaks to get any information. You're basically proving how incompetent Trump's administration is. And the things is, the moment Trump knew of this, he's only has 2 years to act on it, as per U.S. Code 7431. At no point can any reasonable person believe Trump was kept from this information until only about 2 years ago. Seriously, the President at the time not told of something affecting him when the American people knew? Not even you can believe this nonsense. They did know, and did nothing. Yet here you say they are correcting mistakes. Mistakes Trump's own administration made.
