What did it tell you?

I'm not an expert in Ukraine legal matters. I'm sure you aren't either.

J.D. Vance: Mainstream Anti-communist
Scraps replied to BillsFanNC's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
So is there a recording of JD Vance calling Laken Riley's family? This is nothing but the Trump team taking advantage of a family tragedy. Kind of like when he lied about calling Ruby Garcia's family and all his information came from a NY Post article. -
It was never broken. It worked over the weekend. It worked before I told you to try it. It has worked for weeks since the assassination attempt. The AI platforms only use data before a certain date. For ChatGPT that was September or October 2023. Search engines had no such problem. Political operatives took advantage of this to take advantage of you and get you all wound up over nothing.

Thanks for the link. It makes my point. Both sides were frustrated, he said, but Biden “wasn’t moving on . . . he pressed each and every time for these reforms to be implemented. And that created friction in the relationship.” In the fall of 2015, U.S. officials begin targeting Shokin specifically. Victoria Nuland, the assistant secretary of state, said during congressional testimony in October 2015 that the prosecutor general’s office needed to clean up corruption including the “dirty personnel” in its own office. “He became a single point of failure,” Kahl, Biden’s national security adviser, said of Shokin. “We could keep pushing corruption cases, but unless there was a fundamental change at the top, things weren’t going to change.” Among the matters that had lain largely dormant under Shokin, according to U.S. officials and Ukrainian anti-corruption activists, was the earlier investigation into the former minister who owned Burisma, the Ukrainian gas company on whose board Hunter Biden served.

Well, Obama was President so I would say Obama. As I'd asked earlier, and you dodged, if removing Shokin wasn't US policy, wouldn't Obama and multiple people in the departments of State and Justice know about it and say something? I didn't walk back anything you idiot.

Meh. Many of the actions Trump took were challenged in court and found to be unconstitutional. Addressing the issue through legislation made sense. Trump started the Afghanistan withdrawal disaster into motion. He is the one who agreed to leave Afghanistan, tried to do so earlier than Biden and freed 5,000 Afghan prisoners. He even tried to invite the Taliban to Camp David to celebrate 9-11.

HEY GENIUS, unfortunately anyone who reaches the US can apply for asylum. That is the way the laws are written. People were entering illegally even under Trump. This bill was an attempt to address the situation. It may not have gone as far as you wanted but it would be better than the status quo. The liberals gave up a lot for this bill. There was nothing in there about the dreamers, leaving that issue still unresolved. The administration gave that up as a compromise to get funding for Ukraine. It was about the best bill conservatives could have hoped for.

Bob Menendez begs to differ.

Biden executed US policy. The complaints about Shokin was that he was not actively investigating Burisma.

The only reason the bill died is because Orange Jesus wanted the border as an issue. If he really wanted to address the issue, he would have asked people to solve the bill, to reduce the illegal immigration for 9 months or so, then introduced a stronger bill when he became President. Where did the bill propose asylum for scores of people without vetting? It actually increased the number of immigration judges and reduced the length of time they were here from a couple of years to 90 days.
