Biden's Troubles

Okay, so it wasn't in the bill like you claimed. The deal you are complaining about was that Israel bought some munitions from Boeing in a private deal, and as Boeing is a private company based in the US, they need the US government approval in order to sell munitions. That has nothing to do with the bill.

 

Correct. Trump is the threat to Our DemocracyTM.

 

"Soros funding protests" never happened.

"Make sure to be at the Capitol on 1/6. It's going to be wild!"

 

Checking back in to see if the fake news from Breitbart and Townhall has been posted yet. Will check again later.

Leaving, for now, extremely disappointed that this debate has so far occurred absent that extremely vital information.

#both #SAD and #NOT FAIR

 

So what’s this about the SBA working with largely blue counties in Michigan to register voters?? This has to be one of the worst misapplication of federal agency’s resources ever. What does the SBA have to do with registering voters in a “battle ground” state just before a federal election?

Dunno, but it's nice to see Republicans once again care about politicians abusing their power and office for political gain.

Wish you had been around when our POTUS used the Presidency to extort a foreign ally into announcing an investigation of the POTUS's political rival.

No way you would vote for, or even tolerate, THAT, amirite?

 

I agree it seems strange on the surface, but wouldn't most small business owners, who they said theyre targeting, vote Republican?

 

We will probably see more of these gaslighting threads as the election approaches as defending democracy polls as the #2 issue behind the economy with voters.

Since Trump has publicly declared how he would install himself as dictator for life if he wins, the waters have to be muddied by claiming Biden has similar aspirations.

 

Go ahead, maybe I can get them unbanned for you.

 

Politicization of yet another department of the federal government. The DOJ, IRS, and now the SBA. This is sad but the progressive's MO.

Biden administration receives subpoena over ‘inappropriate’ swing state voter registration push (msn.com)

"On Tuesday, the House Committee on Small Business subpoenaed the Small Business Administration, claiming that the Biden administration was possibly violating the Constitution by funneling resources to register voters in the swing state of Michigan.

SBA chief of staff Arthur Plews and his special adviser, Tyler Robinson, were subpoenaed after they reportedly didn't show up at scheduled transcribed interviews with the committee and didn't turn over documents related to a program allegedly "diverting its resources away from assisting Main Street so it can register Democrat voters." This is the first time the agency has been subpoenaed by the committee, per Fox News.

"The committee has given these two individuals the opportunity to speak with us voluntarily without taking these actions, but this appears to be the only way to get them to comply with our oversight responsibilities,” House Small Business Committee Chairman Roger Willams (R-TX) told the outlet. "The SBA's sole mission is to help Main Street thrive and grow, and they have repeatedly strayed from that mission to pursue outside political objectives. It's unfortunate that we have arrived at this point, but this Committee is determined to get answers on behalf of the American people."

 

Biden is the top of the chain of command for the DOD

 

There is plenty of precedent for U.S. Presidents “withholding arms”, even in instances specific to Israel. Reagan did it in response to Israel attacking Iraq in the 80’s. This situation is similar in terms of the U.S. not wanting to be the supplier for a bombing campaign in Rafa, a campaign which would have severe humanitarian consequence's and not likely fulfill Israel’s stated objective. Do we have an issue with Biden sending in defensive support - but holding back on items that could be used in a Rafa offensive?

Where Trump deferred, was the fact his ask was for PERSONAL gain. His favor ask held back defensive weapons to Ukraine, and in exchange for releasing aid he wanted Ukraine to corruptly announce an investigation under false pretense, I.e. something that was purely political and had nothing to do with U.S. policy objectives. One could reasonably construe that as an extortion attempt, using U.S govt resources for personal gain. Can’t say that here.

 

That seems wildly out of scope for the Small Business Administration. I hope they get back on task and dump this.

 

You can explain it to him but he's not going to understand it because he doesn't want to understand it.

 

Sure. After he unconstitutionally declared himself commander in chief.

 

I agree but I also mentioned in the other thread the majority of small business owners are right leaning so it's hard to think this is some nefarious Democratic plot.

Granted this is 2020 but first thing I found.
