Trump is a financial fraud and has committed many white collar crimes. The last 2 are:
1. Trump U- fined $35 million paid in 2017 after being in office. The office is saving Trump.

2. DJT Foundation: Fined $2 million just paid last week. Trump accepted money and used it for personal gain. Even transferring to his campaign. The office is again saving Trump.

Trump has other's in his past as well as contact and traveling with Jeffery Epstein the pedophile king. Sleeping with a porn star as his youngest was born. Attacking other woman over time.

Trump a crook who is not an honest man, has no character or morals.

Then the abuse of a low class NYC mob want-a-be by trying to bribe a foreign nation to interfere in our election.
The outright obstruction of Congress.
So Trump was Impeached and the Senate should remove him.



Oh look...what is it, the 4th or 5th time in this thread you've posted this?


You must be proud....

That's just how it is. I get that you want to stand up for terrorists, but the reality of the situation isn't going to be friendly to that kind of thing.

In baseball it’s called a brushback pitch. IIRC a President named Clinton did essentially the same thing in 1999 when the Chinese embassy scavenged some parts from a F117 that was downed near Belgrade. Clinton ordered a B-2 mission that dropped a precision-guided munition down the chimney of the Chinese embassy building. The bomb counted the floors as it entered the building and exploded on the level where they had stashed the aircraft parts. Three Chinese were killed and 27 injured. The Chinese got the message.

They saw us do it, so of course it is assumed to be the new name of the game. The rules have changed. Assassinations are acceptable. Our rules.

Well, at least the poster doesn't hold down one particular key for three lines like you do after one of your VERY REPETITIVE and duplicate offerings.

No, we killed someone that would have chopped your head off, killed your family and had a drink over your families bodies as he cheered....and spit on you....

Default Was It Legal For The U.S. To Kill A Top Iranian Military Leader?

President Trump stated that Soleimani was plotting "imminent and sinister attacks on American diplomats and American personnel, but we caught him in the act and terminated him."

The powerful Iranian commander led a shadowy elite military organization called the Quds Force. In recent months, the U.S. says the group has backed an Iraqi militia that has launched numerous attacks on U.S. personnel, including Tuesday's attempt to storm the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad.

Experts disagree on how to characterize this killing. "I think the best definition would be either one of assassination or murder," Gary Solis, a retired Marine who taught on the laws of war at West Point, tells NPR. He says what happened is comparable to Iran killing a high-ranking U.S. military official with a bomb on U.S. soil.

Assassination is prohibited by a U.S. executive order, says Ashley Deeks, a University of Virginia law professor who focuses on the laws of war.

She thinks it is unlikely this meets the definition of an assassination: "A lawful killing during an armed conflict does not constitute an assassination," Deeks says. "As a legal matter, if he were intimately involved in planning and blessing these attacks, then that doesn't seem to render it as assassination."

Be interesting to see if anything comes from this.

"Assassinations" of terrorist leaders, sure, but that's nothing new. No rules have been changed. Killing terrorist leaders has always been acceptable.
