  • 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.

GOP: We know Joe Biden is corrupt even if there is no evidence of it!

Sounds to me like you have something to hide.
Meh, even as a rhetorical device it’s a bit sophomoric.

The real “problem” is that we have people who are convinced that they are allowed to look for evidence of a crime before there is a “crime” to investigate.

There has to be evidence to make an accusation that a “crime may have occurred”.
Going through people’s personal documents, to make sure that no crime has occurred is very limited and mostly a 4th Amendment violation.

Ya’ll tickle me. You won’t even consider that there could be a hint of corruption where Biden is concerned.
If it's not fact it's gossip. Do you know what god says about gossip?

At least that’s business income. What business is the Biden family in?
Questions aren't evidence.
And nothing you present about Trump surprises me. I’m not in denial like people are about Biden
Oh wait those are Trump’s tax records. I don’t think any of the payments made to the Bidens would be on their tax returns, I think Hunter had a problem with that but the DOJ let the statute of limitations expire
Is that a question? Or a sentence?

My irony meter just exploded,

For the thousandth time, Shokin's firing was ordered by President Obama. The IMF, EU and NATO wanted him gone too.
Repeating a rumor does not make it true. The House is seeking documentation to understand Joe's sudden switch in policy, using taxpayer money, to demand the firing of Shokin in the below September 12, 2023 letter to State:

On June 11, 2015, then-
Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Victoria Nuland wrote Prosecutor
General Shokin, applauding his office’s progress in anti-corruption efforts.6 In September 2015,
then-U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey Pyatt publicly stated “we want to work with
Prosecutor General Shokin so the [Prosecutor General Office] is leading the fight against
corruption.”7 Also in September, the Interagency Policy Committee asserted Prosecutor General
Shokin had made sufficient progress in combating corruption to warrant a third guarantee of a $1
billion loan.8 On November 5, 2015, then-Vice President participated in a call with then-
President of Ukraine Poroshenko and provided no indication that the United States’ policy
regarding Ukraine required the dismissal of Prosecutor General Shokin.9 By late 2015, however,
the removal of Prosecutor General Shokin became a condition of the loan guarantee by the
United States.10

What "rumor"?

I devoted a whole thread to debunking the claim that then VP Biden was acting on his own.

Why hasn't Joe produced documentation showing the order from Obama? The House has asked why the change in policy and asked for records. As to your explanation about the pseudonyms being created to protect Joe's schedule, why in the world is Joe claiming executive privilege pertaining to his schedule of ten years ago? I understand it at the time, but what would be the harm in releasing his old schedule? Taking into account that Joe lied on many occasions about never having discussed Hunter business with Hunter, and the White House changed the story to Joe was never involved in Hunter's business, do you understand why people are skeptical?

No he's not.

Only if he's suing someone for releasing material from his laptop, which he's not.

Given the number of times a day I see that Donald's indictments are completely bogus and only meant to stop him from running, this comment inanely ironic.
I’m not a Trump supporter. I’m not in denial like Biden supporters are

It’s called “international business”; what was the money for!?
Who knows!?
It shouldn’t be investigated, unless there is first “probable cause”.
SARs aren’t themselves “probable cause”.
Probable cause is needed to make an arrest. It doesn’t figure in an investigation. A reasonable suspicion is all that is needed.

Maybe they should read the Washington Post.

Inside VP Biden’s linking of a loan to a Ukraine prosecutor’s ouster

On the plane, according to a person who participated in the conversation, Biden “called an audible” — he changed the plan.

Other officials involved in the policy process, including two who were also on Biden’s plane, don’t quite remember Biden’s making such a forceful intervention. They recall a more disciplined policy process preceding the trip that led to consensus on linking the firing to the loan

In any case, by the time Biden landed in Kyiv, four people with direct knowledge told The Fact Checker, the Obama White House was firmly on board with the plan.

The headline is false. The lawsuit is for releasing data, but does not specify where the data came from. We've covered this.

The data had to come from somewhere. I realize you still believe that there is no laptop but really?
The suit, filed in federal court in California, accuses Ziegler of "accessing, tampering with, manipulation, altering, copying and damaging computer data that they do not own and that they claim to have obtained from hacking into Plaintiff's iPhone data and from scouring a copy of the hard drive of what they claim to be Plaintiff's 'laptop' computer."
And this is from CNN

But it didn't have to be a laptop, and the lawsuit makes no such claim. Your post was false, pure and simple.

"Plaintiff's iPhone data and from scouring a copy of the hard drive of what they claim to be Plaintiff's 'laptop' computer" is a long long way from confirming an actual laptop.
