Speaking of lying in the context of moderation, whatever happened to Carmine9, Unkle, and that lineage?
Anyone?
So you support the idea Schiff cannot be called a liar but Trump can be?
Why?
I don't really give a crap about what Schiff said regarding his family/generational lineage. Does it matter? Someone pointed out it probably has to do with semantics, but who the hell cares? Not wasting time over something so inconsequential.
And maybe the thread was deleted because it was factually incorrect or misrepresented the actual circumstances.

Trump on the other hand...

When House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff was asked on MSNBC in September whether he had spoken to the whistleblower, Schiff replied that his committee had not.

Trump now has: 91 felony counts 11 aides convicted 4 indictments 2 impeachments $83.3 million defamation verdict $25 million fraud judgment $5 million sexual assault verdict $1.6 million tax fraud conviction A university shut down A charity shut down And is on trial for fraud.
And oddly none of them until he said he was running for president.
Wasn't this the trial where the judge already declared him liable and so it was just about how much $? Was this the one where the judge did not allow a jury? How can you guys not see thru this?
Do you actually think there is a case in which a judge "did not allow or a jury"?
Or are in the real world in which Trump's legal team, working on his behalf, declined a jury trial by not checking a simple box on a form?
The first case does not exist. The second one does.
The case is another example of Trump shooting himself in the foot. If, in response to her accusations, he said there was no sexual assault and didn’t remember ever meeting her, that would been the end of it. Instead, he made some personal attacks and here we are.
It’s the same thing with the 1/6 and Georgia trials. If he had conceded the election like every other president before him that had lost, there would be no convictions. The documents mess was also avoidable.

You don't know that the judge set up one of these trials so there could be no jury?
Former President Donald Trump has complained repeatedly that the civil trial in New York, where he’s accused of business fraud, does not have a jury – and the fate of the case is up to Judge Arthur Engoron.

What was the evidence he assaulted her?
What was her story?
Newname is needy today. He needs your attention. Don’t give it to him..

Right, it couldn’t be proven and all Trump had to do was deny it, but he started making personal attacks which resulted in him being sued.
“This is to notify you formally pursuant to rule 8 of the rules of the House of Representatives that the office of the sergeant at arms for the House of Representatives has been served with a grand jury subpoena for documents issued by the U.S. Department of Justice”
It is believed that Jack Smith now has Scott Perry's phone contents after a long legal battle. So this subpoena for house documents sure looks like he is on the trail of fellow GOP traitors that assisted Trump in performing illegal acts to stop the peaceful transfer of power. You remember Scott Perry right? He was the one with the idea of installing Jeffrey Clark at DOJ to say there was election fraud being looked into when there wasn't. This was before they all threatened to resign and Trump could not execute his plan.
Remember, there is a reason why the crazy Trump caucus appears to do things that harm themselves politically. It is because they have criminal culpability and Trump can sink their ship if he spills the beans. And also they are all banking on pardons in 2024. Does this now explain their brand of crazy and chaos to get Trump elected?
At the start of the trial, Engoron noted that no parties in the case requested a jury trial and that the law mandated a “bench trial” decided by a judge.
DJT's attorney did not ask for a jury trial. How can they be so ignorant?

Does Newname even read the articles he shares?
1) The law mandates a bench trial.
2) Trump's lawyers could have challenged that and it would have been a basis for litigation and a possible appeal if they lost.
3) Trump's lawyers failed to ask for a jury trial (they couldn't check a box on a form!), so the case was a bench trial, as the law would stipulate.
4) The judge absolutely did NOT "set up" the trial "so there could be no jury."
I'll save everyone from clicking the link that Newname shared, that shows that Newname is as wrong as usual.
“It’s not entirely clear whether Trump would have been entitled to a jury trial under New York law – that would depend on nuanced legal determinations about the nature of the remedy sought by the attorney general,” said Elie Honig, a CNN senior legal analyst and former federal and New Jersey prosecutor. “But Trump’s legal team absolutely could have requested a jury, litigated the issue, and then appealed had they lost.”
At the start of the trial, Engoron noted that no parties in the case requested a jury trial and that the law mandated a “bench trial” decided by a judge.
“You have probably noticed or already read that this case has no jury,” Engoron said. “Neither side asked for one and, in any event, the remedies sought are all equitable in nature, mandating that the trial be a bench trial, one that a judge alone decides.”

Also interesting: Department of Defense Inspector General has published a report documenting the wild amount of fentanyl, morphine, and other drugs, were prescribed in Trump's White House.

Search for the quote. The are a lot of sources -- issues just hours ago. The hard-rightwing is working overtime* to create fake news.
* overtime using the same drugs Trump stocked in the White House in the dispensary which he turned into a self-serve drug store. He removed the person who controlled distribution of the drugs because Trump didn't want to have paperworks records of his daily raids to keep himself up all night tweeting.
Uh oh. Looks like Trump may have had a secret bathroom that didn't get searched. This guy does a LOT of crime in bathrooms. Can they get another search warrant? I'm sure he's got all kinds of stolen government sh!t in there.
The special counsel has questioned witnesses about a so-called "hidden room" inside Mar-a-Lago that wasn't searched by the FBI during their August 2022 raid, sources say.
I don't get all the hubbub about Fani Willis and her paramour. I can't see how it affects the Georgia case at all. Most lawyers have affairs with other lawyers. If they all got booted, there'd be hardly anyone trying cases.
Quite the ball busting brief by the prosecution in the Bathroom case. They took the opportunity in responding to a Trump discovery motion to lay out the background facts.
Summary:
"Put simply, the Government here confronted an extraordinary situation: a former President engaging in calculated and persistent obstruction of the collection of Presidential records, which, as a matter of law, belong to the United States for the benefit of history and posterity, and, as a matter of fact, here included a trove of highly classified documents containing some of the nation’s most sensitive information. The law required that those documents be collected. And the record establishes that the relevant government officials performed their tasks with professionalism and patience in the face of unprecedented defiance."
They lay out (again) the whole history of how the government repeatedly tried to get Trump to return documents, and he just responded with lies and various other BS.
