Tim Walz has dropped out of governor's Race in Minnesota. I guess he decided that even the most psychotic leftist who pulls the lever for Any Democrat no matter how bad they are, Might even have a hard time pulling it for him

The 4 that are in the article who accused him are Juanita Broderick, Kathleen Willey, Paula Jones, and Leslie Milwee.

I have a question that you are probably not willing to answer, yet I will ask it anyway.

You voted 2x for a known serial rapist?  You knew he was a rapist and you voted 2x for him. What does that say about You?  

Why did You, Jim Moscheck vote 2x for a known serial rapist?

Was it:

A) Because You are a misogynist and you don't like women?
B) Because You Think that women kind of deserve what they have gotten because Bill Clinton is a Democrat and these unfortunate Victims don't matter in the grand scheme of things?
C) As long as Bill Clinton has earned his position of President you have no problem with allowing him to abuse these women, because they are taking one for the team?
D) You, like Democrat James Carville say that "If you drag a $20 bill through a trailer park, you never know what you'll find"?

It must be one of those reasons

P.S. My intuition tells me that the answer is a Combination of ABC and D.  smile

I never voted for Bill, but bringing up Bill is just a red herring. It doesn't change the fact that you put a convicted sexual criminal into the White House.

It appears that you don't know the difference between a civil suit and a criminal prosecution.

So should I chalk up your lie above, as emerging because of your A) Massive Trump Derangement Syndrome, or B) are you simply another in a long line of uninformed and ignorant leftists who occupy this forum James?  cool

According to the judge who oversaw the E. Jean Carroll case, Trump's action constituted rape as most people commonly understand the word. He would have been convicted in a criminal court if E. Jean Carroll had been able to convince a DA to press charges at the time. It didn't happen for all the usual reasons: shame and self-blame, fear of retaliation from Trump, she had little chance of prevailing against a rich and powerful man, and would the police even take her seriously? The only reason she was able to sue him in civil court was that New York passed the Adult Survivors Act in 2022, which allowed one year for victims to file sexual assault lawsuits in the state involving claims that would have usually exceeded statute limitations. So, you can split hairs about whether he's a criminal or not. Still, all of this, coupled with the mountains of other evidence detailing his sexual deviance, makes it clear he's, by anyone's standard, a criminally horrible person who has only gotten away with what he has for so long because he's rich and powerful. And you voted for what is arguably the most immoral and disgusting man to ever be in the White House; congratulations.

ICE. Training for November???

Haven't they already sent ICE agents to polling places before? I'm sure Trump and some of his cronies have suggested it. Of course, they claim it's to ensure free and fair elections, but we all know it's for intimidation purposes. Never mind that there is no evidence of widespread voting in federal elections by illegal immigrants. I'm sure they will do it again, even though it's technically against the law to deploy federal law enforcement to polling places. There are state and federal laws against it, as I understand it.

Completely false and wrong assertion given by you.  

If you had the stones, you would quit tap dancing and just admit it.  It seems that You don't have intellectual honesty to just admit it.  Gee, that's a real shock there isn't it.  LOL!!

Oh, I wasn't trying to tap dance or not admit anything; Trump was not convicted in a criminal court. However, by any standard, he would have been, and the civil cases alone should be enough to tell any regular person all they need to know about Trump. Two separate juries found Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation, awarding Carroll nearly $90 million in damages in total. That should make any normal person detest the man entirely.

To shoot down your ridiculous theory that "by any standard" he would have been convicted in a Criminal Court, one only need to provide evidence to counter the asinine charge that You and other TDS Suffering Individuals put forth.

The rape Charge exists With no basis in reality.

E jean Carroll would have been on the stand having to Prove, along with the prosecution, beyond a reasonable doubt, that Donald Trump raped her.

Apparently you lack the basic understanding that a civil trial requires only a preponderance of evidence, to win the case, vs a criminal Conviction requiring proof beyond a reasonable doubt A much higher bar of course.

Therefore your absurd assertion is just that absurd and nonsensical, , especially considering the frame of mind of the mental midget E Jean Carroll, Who when questioned about the so called rape couldn't even provide the year that it occurred.

Now that Is some Kind of truly credible witness isn't she?

The fact is that no prosecutor in his right mind would have criminal charges of rape against Donald Trump because there was no evidence aside from a delusional freak show woman who claimed it.

The only reason That this nutjob woman brought that case to begin with was because she spoke with George Conway a leftist who talked her into it. It was all about the money she could get from Donald Trump.

Hell, on Anderson Cooper's show on CNN that nutjob E. Jean Carroll told him "rape is sexy".

Understand this, Just because you are filled with Trump derangement syndrome, doesn't mean every other person on earth has the same mental condition and affliction.

Furthermore the Case was brought to a Jury in Manhattan, where 90% of the people Hate Donald Trump's guts with a passion just as you do. 

A criminal trial would be quite different and the statute of limitations had run out A long time ago on the charges,

If You were on a jury, I'm certain that you could be convinced to convict him for the Manson killings. I've no doubt in my mind that a person like you could be convinced of that crime and that Donald Trump did it.  That's how truly gone you are upstairs.

Your assertions saying " By any standard" he would be found guilty is a joke.

No, it's not a joke, and it's entirely supportable by the public record. What's a joke is how you and all of the other brain-washed Trump die-hards can't see the reality of how awful he is.

The striking difference Between the disastrous Joe Biden withdrawal from Afghanistan in which Biden caused 13 military members to be killed and the flawless action taken last weekend under Trump's military

It was So very sad when Biden, Lloyd Austin, and Mark Milley lied to the American people and claimed that they had no choice in withdrawing from Afghanistan at the end of August in 2021.

The lying Biden administration and the lap dogs for him in the military, said they had no choice, however they had plenty of choices because the agreement made by Trump and the Taliban was all forces would be removed by May 1st 2021

So when Joe Biden ignored the date of withdrawal of May 1st, and then withdrew on August 31st, it is obvious that Biden was not bound by that May 1st date and deadline.  Yet the leftist Media covered for him and said "oh he had no choice. He had to withdraw then".

Now Then, any individual with three brain cells to rub together realized at the time that Joe Biden was just making it up as he went along.

On Saturday, when the brilliant military commanders under Trump's leadership staged one of the most impressive military operations since World War II, not one soldier, sailor, or marine was killed in the operation.

It was a nearly flawless mission, and yet all the leftist media can do is criticize it because that's their nature. Trump Derangement Syndrome is a real disease of the brain.

Congratulations are warranted to our brilliant military who achieved this great feat and accomplishment. Bravo!

There is no comparison between the slow buildup of limited US military forces off the coast of Venezuela, a significantly smaller and weaker country than the US in terms of overall military power, economic output, and conventional strength, and the complex and challenging task of removing a large-scale military presence in Afghanistan that had been there for two decades. The only valid comparison is that, oh boy, here we go with yet another foreign regime change adventure that will likely fail and waste god knows how many hundreds of billions of dollars, while Americans can't afford healthcare. America First! Am I right?

He said he intends to do just that. Davis loves that, too...

They cut billions and billions of dollars from education, Medicaid, SNAP, disability, childcare assistance, and healthcare subsidies; all the things that help everyday Americans. And now they are going to write big fat checks to the most prominent and most prosperous oil companies in the world, so they will agree to go into Venezuela and produce oil that does absolutely nothing to help the American people. Socialism for the oil companies, and nothing for the American people. This administration is a travesty to the American people.

In fact back in 2020, Chuck Schumer Democrat Senate Majority Leader Criticized Donald Trump on the Floor of the Senate complaining that Donald Trump hadn't removed Maduro from power yet. And we know that you just parrot whatever Schumer or your puppet masters tell you to say and therefore my inkling is you would have been thrilled if Joe Biden had done the same that Donald Trump did rather than his debacle in Afghanistan where he lied and said that they had no choice to leave because there was some sort of timeline that Donald Trump agreed upon with the Taliban to leave Afghanistan.

Well you still can't answer this question now can you? If there was a timeline which Donald Trump made which was in May of that year how is it that Joe Biden was able to arbitrarily move the date that the United States was supposed to leave all the way forward three months to the end of August? 

How did that happen if it was set in stone according to people like you, fraudulent leftist hypocrites out there?

Go ahead and enlighten everyone here with your wisdom.  I'll ask again, if the date of withdrawal was set in stone, one just need to look at agreement and see Trump agreed to withdraw from Afghanistan at the end of May, so how did Joe Biden magically move the date forward By 3 full months if that's the only reason he withdrew at that time because he lied and said that he had no choice?

Perhaps you can explain his lie? I will wait you see your next tap dance.smile

What the hell are you going on about? How does this irrelevant topic you have introduced, whether Biden had a hard timeline for the Afghanistan departure or not, have anything to do with how easy the Venezuela operation was in comparison? You and your red herrings are a waste of time, and I'm under no obligation to go down your endless rabbit holes. Undoubtedly, you will accuse me of "hiding under my desk" and being "powerless to stand up to your superior facts and logic," and claim some kind of fake victory. Your unoriginal, trite argument style has become so overused that it's meaningless.

Sotomayor’s dissent is compelling too.   These are not easy issues in the real world outside of social media.

All, legalese aside, what Trump, Kristi Noem, and the DHS are doing in Minnesota is nothing short of outrageous, since we all know that what it's really all about is political retribution. Trump and the DHS have surged thousands of ICE and other armed, masked, and obviously under-trained federal agents into Minnesota. Not only did they unjustly shoot and kill Renee Good by shooting her in the face, but they are also conducting themselves in a way that makes it impossible not to make comparisons to a state police that acts outside the law, has no accountability, and that is carrying out political repression at the behest of Trump. At this point, there are many examples of arbitrary and unjust detention and violence carried out by ICE, not to mention the secrecy and anonymity of most of the agents with their masks and plainclothes attire.

And how do we know it's really all about political retribution? Because Trump has a vendetta against Walz, the state and people of Minnesota, who rejected him three times, Ilhan Omar, and Somali immigrants in general, and if this was really all about immigration enforcement, then they would do the same to Texas, Arizona, Florida, etc., which have far more illegal immigrants than Minnesota. We don't have exact numbers, but according to the data we do have, Minnesota would not even be in the top 20 when it comes to the raw number of illegal immigrants.

Honestly, if ICE were not conducting itself in such a provocative, aggressive, and violent way, especially against the general population, most of us probably wouldn't even know they were there doing it. But that's not Trump's style. He thrives on chaos, vengeance, and retribution, and has zero shame when it comes to using the power of the office he occupies to feed his psychotic need for it. All I can say is the midterms cannot get here fast enough, and I hope that, then, the balance of power in Congress shifts so that they can hold Trump accountable, because right now it seems there is no end to the harm he can cause.

Yes, I agree Dave's criticisms are a bit overly dramatic, but it's no surprise that people are comparing ICE to the actual Gestapo, given that what they are doing deviates significantly from what they have done in the past, and also what we have come to expect regarding law enforcement behavior.

By the way, did you see Tim Walz's address to Minnesotans? It's definitely worth a watch, and will no doubt only fan the flames started by ICE even more. And here we go with Greenland and Trump's sabre-rattling, and NATO's response. It just never ends with Trump; he has to be in a constant state of chaos and turmoil.
