  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

A source inside Bragg’s office also said a substantial number of assistant district attorneys were “shaking their heads” over Bragg’s decision to pursue Trump, 76.
“They don’t understand how this case is going forward,” the source said. “These ADAs are not fans of Trump but they are professional lawyers and know the law.”
Fox News also reported “major dissension” inside Bragg’s office, with one source saying the “weakness” of the evidence against Trump was posing problems for prosecutors.

According to the article in the OP, the Grand Jury was canceled because a witness was unable to appear.

The afternoon session was unexpectedly canceled by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, the sources said.

Members of the panel were told to stay home and be on standby for Thursday, a law enforcement source said.

The move — which forestalls a potentially unprecedented indictment of the 45th president in connection with the payment of $130,000 to porn star Stormy Daniels — came because an unidentified witness was unable to appear, sources said.

The witness is believed to be someone who will rebut Monday’s testimony from lawyer and Trump ally Robert Costello, sources said.

The grand jury was put on standby because it was unclear whether the witness would be available Thursday, a source said.

But court workers began making preparations late Wednesday afternoon for the testimony to take place Thursday, a source said.

Ah, the old unverified sources.
LOL! That's hilarious! The whole article is literally based on unverified sources! The part you quoted starts with "A source"? Who? What source? Why are anonymous sources a-okay for what you quoted but not for the rest that doesn't really line up with the "IT'S CHAOS!!" narrative? And, I'm pretty sure if I'm reading the context right the "unverified sources" you're maligning are the same "unverified sources" you are quoting!

Try harder.

Well, there you have it... More smoke.. no fire.
When are they going to learn? Seven years of making stuff up, breaking laws, spying, kangaroo courts, fake news, fake stories, corrupt FBI, Corrupt DOJ... and still...

They cannot get DT off the ballot for 2024 when he will win a landslide.

Meanwhile, the Biden admin is a total train wreck. As was Hillary and all the criminal activity there.

I hope that the west can survive the absolute pathetic leadership of our two great countries as we continue to see them destroy Canada and the USA through incompetence, neglect, corruption, lies, hypocrisy, and out and out pre meditated destruction of the freedom and liberties that made them great in the past.

He hasn’t won the popular vote three times trying (including the 2000 attempt), but yeah, sure, what’ll it look like when he goes on the “I REALLY won tour 2.0?”

Well, one could argue that the results of the 2020 election will never be known.
However, have you seen his latest numbers of people showing up to his events? All these fictitious accounts against him are increasing his popularity.. regardless of what the polls say... polls mean nothing.

Trump himself was the only one emitting smoke. And raising money off it.
The "smoke" has been billowing from the left for 7 years as the have DT living in the heads rent free for the entire time 24/7.

One could also argue that the moon landing was faked, that 9/11 was an inside job, and that Joe Biden is really a lizard.

He’s a showman. People like the show. That doesn’t indicate he can win another election.

If, by showman, you mean.. he can think, speak, answer questions, and read a room.... we could use some of that.

No, that is not what I mean. He plays to his audience only and mostly just rambles about himself but his crowd eats that up.

You mean like the meagre crowd in Waco who started leaving 15 minutes into his rambling screed of grievances?
