Immunity For The King...

Brandon, two weeks after the Ukraine war, should have declared a war footing on food production and energy production for the world. He didn't. People around the world are going hungry and some have already died because of him. Will the death and dying come to ours shores? It could. Certainly deprivation is already in Europe and here.
So, replacing market capitalism with state-organized production?

No. There’s little in the way of controversy this time because the condemnation is universal and not limited to those not supporting the president.
Nope. Every loudmouthed leftist in this forum… who stumbled all over one another in vicious judgment when the prior administration was in power… has shut his trap now, because Joe Biden and the Democrats are in charge…and PJ lefties are WHORES for the DNC across all issues. Every one of you bent over. Like always.

No surprise.

You mean, the people who disagreed with the many people here defending Trump’s cover-up of the murder are now satisfied that the rest of the board has come around to the same way of thinking and see no way to add much to the condemnation of Biden shared by every poster including the many leftists who has commented on this thread.

Feel free to link to the “angry, scathing tirade (as was offered during the prior admin).” In case you haven’t noticed, angry tirades aren’t really my style. I tend to prefer the objective “just the facts” approach.

I feel a bit lightheaded. Maybe you should drive.
I don’t believe that they could get close to enough votes in congress to impeach Biden. I’d bet on it.
What you are really betting on is the FBI's ability to keep the evidence of Biden family corruption swept under the rug...it's a pretty good bet.

From what I understand, there will soon be congressional investigations into Bden, his kid, his brother and the whole family. Like any congressional investigation into a POTUS or any other big wheel I will follow it closely and judge the veracity of the evidence, including documents produced, witnesses, and any other relevant evidence. If they produce any real evidence of criminal activity, I will support prosecution. If there is evidence of impeachable offenses, I will support impeachment. That said, I bet there is nothing there but innuendo and no real evidence of a crime. So, my bet remains that in the next two, or six years, the House will NEVER get close to enough votes to impeach Biden. Your assertion that the FBI is hard at work running interference for Hunter Biden is a steaming crock of shit. Also I predict that if Hunter Biden is subpoenaed to appear before the committee, he will not pull a Trump and dodge it. If they have the guts to call him in, he will show up…You heard it here first.…I bet they got nothing…If I am wrong, I will be the first to admit it. We shall soon see my friend….Cheers

It's amazing how antifa-commie boys like you confuse leadership with state-organized production. Someday your government worship is going to come back to bite you in the ass like it does for all commies.

A curious development:

Biden administration requests immunity for Saudi crown prince in Khashoggi killing: 'Beyond ironic'

During his presidential campaign, Biden promised Saudi rulers would face consequences in the journalist's brutal death

The Biden administration declared Thursday night the official standing of Saudi Arabia's crown prince should grant him immunity in lawsuits for his alleged role in the brutal killing of a U.S.-based journalist.

The request is a controversial one after President Biden promised "consequences" on his campaign trail for Saudi officials following the 2018 death of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi...

...The Biden administration's request for immunity is non-binding and will ultimately be decided by a judge, but it is expected to anger human rights activists and many U.S. lawmakers, according to the AP.

Human rights advocates argued that Prince Mohammed and other authoritarian leaders around the world would be emboldened to commit more rights abuses if the Biden administration supported the crown prince's claim that his high office shielded him from prosecution.

Being exempt from prosecution by virtue of being a head of state...Quite a stance this administration is taking, no?
Exempt from lawsuits is not exempt from prosecution.

It is quite a stance. Based on the law. Wingers really seem to hate the law.

Maybe Fox is a tad biased in their reporting. After all, I don't see the Biden admin's response in the article.
But I found if for you, just in case readers wanted the full story.


“This is a legal determination made by the State Department under longstanding and well-established principles of customary international law," a spokesperson for the White House National Security Council said in a written statement. "It has nothing to do with the merits of the case."

The spokesperson referred further questions to the State and Justice Departments.

In a document filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, Justice Department attorneys wrote that "the doctrine of head of state immunity is well established in customary international law."


Justice Department lawyers said that the executive branch of U.S. government, referring to the Biden Administration, had "determined that defendant bin Salman, as the sitting head of a foreign government, enjoys head of state immunity from the jurisdiction of U.S. courts as a result of that office."
That’s one of the key tactics of right wing media outlets when brainwashing their zombies - never ask the Dems to comment.
