If that were true, then Democrats would invoke Article 5 and bring a Bill to the floor to repeal the Second Amendment. Or literally go down trying. I’m afraid that no Democrat on Capitol Hill is as sure of your ban rhetoric as you are.

Well apparently the commutation you speak of (I was totally unaware, thanks Google) was very widely and publicly supported on a bipartisan basis. This is something that of all things unholy Nancy Pelosi and Donald Trump agreed with. Huh, who'd a thunk that one? "That view [and excessive...

There are Israeli oligarchs paying Trump ? Do tell...

Fair Point. Trump is certainly not a politician by any stretch of the imagination. The politically expedient play is to continue to kick the can down the road.

He became a Democrat in 2009. Does not count as a Republican.

That's confusing - no Republican, House or Senate, voted for the ACA (Obamacare). That did not stop President Obama from pursuing his policies.

Agreed. Both nuclear and renewables are heavily subsidized in the United States.

California has hated on nuclear power plants since the '60's. They shut down San Onofre and Diablo Canyon down early in fact. But otherwise I agree with you completely. We all know that there is no Republican support for such a proposal, and so I call upon Democratic leadership to introduce...

I'm sure you're much more expert than I am. I read the Hoover Institute's White Paper on the Canadian and Australian revenue neutral carbon tax experiences to date and that's about it. But, if you like CCL's proposals, go with it - start out at 16 cents per gallon and then ramp it up from...

I agree completely. We all know that there is no Republican support for such a proposal, and so I call upon Democratic leadership to introduce a Bill calling for an increase in the Federal tax on motor vehicle gasoline in order to raise the pump price 50% higher and to implement a...

Meh. They're paying $2.39-ish per gallon in the Red States.

Why the emoluments clause will not end Trump's presidency All three of the lawsuits filed against Trump alleging emoluments violations face uphill battles in court. https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/why-emoluments-clause-will-not-end-trump-s-presidency-ncna835331 CliffNotes Version: The...

1. Don Jr. and Eric can run the Company into the ground and dilute big Daddy's blind trust equity as they see fit. 2. I laugh because only the Indonesians, Russians and the Chinese would be impressed with the nausea inducing pink marble and gold leaf decor theme that is associated with Trump...

This jives with a University of Minnesota Dept of Engineering Study that was published in 2014. That study found that on a nation-wide basis electric cars would be worse for the environment unless somehow the national electrical generating grid were nuclear, natural gas, and renewables like...

The Jerusalem Embassy Act was passed into law by the Congress and the Senate in 1995. The very first sentence in the Act states: "To provide for the relocation of the United States Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, and for other purposes". Each President since that time has routinely invoked...

Pretty sure that some brand of Iranian backed forces have been shelling and bombing the Golan Heights since the Six Day War in 1967. In fact, Israel made the Iron Dome system operational in 2011 because Hezbollah (Iranian proxy) has been lobbing missiles at them for decades. But...

I agree with your observation. Demand is higher due to the stronger economy but in terms of supply - the world is drowning in crude oil courtesy of North America. The real potential choke points of concern to US motorists would be Gulf Coast refining capacity which is of course not mentioned...

And the media and the left are totally oblivious to date about how bad this is going for Mueller. Nothing has been settled - far from it. But a successful indictment for the cornerstone legal case with respect to your DOJ charter is anything but certain. A thin and weak Federal indictment, a...

And freedom of the press in the United States is protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. This is where Avenatti appearing on hundreds of television segments and having his name published tens of thousands of times since February is the saw that cuts both ways - he...

OK. Fine. By Memorial Day we should know if it is indeed a molehill or a mountain. :rolleyes:
