On that note, Deutsche Bank is notorious for money laundering by Russian oligarchs and the Russian Mafiya. No surprise that it's also one of Trump's biggest lenders. 'Twas the book keeping that put Capone behind bars, after all. Mueller's just taking a page from the history books to put Trump behind bars as well. Deutsche Bank did its own investigation to see if there were Russian guarantees behind Trump's loans and says there weren't.

Speaking of KN can we unban him yet? I think he got section banned this time. Pity, he would be real handy to have around right now.

Either way I appreciate his involuntary support of my boycott...

Second member of Mueller's team has his bias revealed.
Time to shut it down and finally get over "muh Russia" libs.

Nope, the very legit investigation is going to continue. Looking forward to hearing Trump's explanation as to why he covered up Flynn's crimes. Because that lawyer speak is not working at all.

Welp, looks like Vic has crossed over and is just making things up now.

Michael Flynn. The man never existed. facts I don't like. He was actually a sentient pile of ants that has since gone back to the rural American Southwest.
By Viciouss 2017-12-05 15:47:43
Looks like KT Mcfarland is in trouble now because she told Congress she wasnt aware of Flynn's comms with Russia, not even believable in the first place, but now its documented that she was. So that nomination is frozen.

Why does Trump have the power to declare Jerusalem the capital of Israel?
That's it, as moderator of FFXIAH, I declare Wetwang the capital of the UK. Now you have to because some American said it.

He doesn't. It's an optics thing, but will likely result in an embassy relocation.
Just like 99% of everything else Trump related, it's only a problem because it hurts people's feels.

My declaration still stands, Wetwang is now the capital of the UK.

The problem here is that some feels (Tumblrinas, Red Pillers, etc.) don't mean a piss in the wind because they're internet whiners and that's all.
The problem with the U.S. acknowledge Jerusalem as the capital of Israel is that it upsets an already-tottering balance in the Middle East that will further push the more people into extremism that will lead to more violence, and it's entirely unnecessary.

Blue Ball is now Pennsylvania's capital.
Because that's what our state legislature does.
Gets all riled up and acts like something is going to happen, and then the state gets to writhe in pain for three months until they choke out a gasping, barely-worthwhile budget.

Sometimes you have to do the right thing regardless of how the psychos feel about it.

It's not really a "right or wrong" here. It's just a provocative action being carried out because he promised a bunch of rich people he would do it and he's being pressured to do it.
They were already pissed at him for extending the stay in Tel Aviv another six months previously.
And it's all well and good to say "regardless of how the psychos feel about it" but radicalizing the Middle East has led to a lot of dead Americans, too. So...let's consider the duties of the President in defending American lives, including U.S. soldiers whenever possible.
And I swear to Altana if this gets deflected with a "but Obama" or "but Hillary"...
Because even though I really liked Obama I was critical of his foreign policy with Eastern Europe and the Middle East. We've been trying for decades upon decades to bully the Middle East and associated countries into submission to Western standards and all it's done is cause more problems and led to more innocent deaths.

Well, I mean. I guess that's the other end of the spectrum.
Sure, why not. Maybe in 50 years time we'll have the Middle Eastern equivalent of FFXI once they've clawed their way into economic success after we bomb the ***out of them.
Worked for Japan I guess...

But muh oil, kefta and hummus!!! Think of the commodities.

Surprised Nausi hasn’t mentioned this is all due to Schumer suggesting it to Trump, over bagels and lox yesterday.
By Ramyrez 2017-12-06 09:26:37
Frankly if we're going to get more aggressive rather than less, I say we just dropkick Jerusalem, Baghdad, Jerusalem, Mecca, and any and all other religious sites as a bit of an international relations version of "Since you can't play nice and share them we're taking them all away."
I still advocate, you know, not bombing anyone.
But if we're going to do it and kill all those innocents, let's do it in a way that will actually make a point.
