• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

I think you're barking up the wrong tree here - as I recall from previous postings, Foamhead is transgender and was making a joke.
Does talking to myself count?

Yes, I do speak to transgender people on occasion, and there are more of us then you think.
You can always tell on a forum who's paying attention.

What does that have to do with me? I don't think I said anything out of pocket. They got snarky and so did I. Did I say anything other than trans people should be treated like human beings and it is evil to laugh at them? If they disclosed their gender change, the only difference is I would have known the laugh was directed at me and not their stance on transgenderism. No reason to walk on eggshells, like I said they are human just like me.

It is the judges instructions to the Jury, and the violation of his rights that will be tried.
I will bet my house that you haven't read his instructions to the jury. They are here: https://www.nycourts.gov/LegacyPDFS/press/PDFs/People v. DJT Jury Instructions and Charges FINAL 5-23-24.pdf

I'll ask you to specifically point out anything the judge said that either you personally think was wrong or might be a case for calling for a retrial. It's only 55 pages. Shouldn't take you too long.

They are in every state but I doubt that they surround you. Have you actually spoken t one? Otherwise, do you just get information from social media posters that think that transgender people signal the apocalypse?
I don’t have a “scorecard” (either) but I think yinz are on the same side but talking past one another?

Well, I thought what he was charged with were crimes. You know, people aren't charged with things that aren't. At least I always assumed that. I never actually checked. Lucky for us you did. Do you have any details?
From what I have seen (and this is from hearing about things indirectly) they claim that Trump committed a crime for being a victim of blackmail and his lawyer at the time (who claimed that Trump did not know about the hush money payments, that he stole from Trump and that he was testifying to get revenge on Trump) misclassified the hush money payments.

If I am incorrect - please correct me.

The blackmail payments came out of his campaign finances?

I am looking for people to help me regain trust in the justice system by explaining exactly what Trump supposedly did wrong.

I believe from your post that you are not interested in what Trump actually did or in justice - but you just glory in the idea that Trump has been smeared.

Several posts ago. You were asking what he was charged with.

Let's please try to avoid a bad faith discussion where we ask fact based questions.
That list of invoices were the chrages?

Because they're actions that violated the law. That's what a crime is...

In this case, they're violations of New York Penal Law §175.10. Specifically 'Falsifying business records in the first degree'
Ok - now we are getting somewhere - what exactly happened?

What was falsified? How much? And for what purpose?

This literally has not happened.

People keep claiming that he committed crimes - but they don't explain exactly what he did.

Read the transcripts.

Most of us have jobs and don't have time to review evidence to the depth you may need.

Perhaps you should read the transcripts and share with us how it is deficient.

His enemies may be laughing at him ...
but his supporters are praying for him, and contributing money to his campaign.
More than praying - paying. One letter difference, but so meaningful. And pay they do, currently 53 million US dollars in 24h.
