basilico:Do you really think I can't pay my own heating bills and pay someone to slaughter goats, ducks and cows for me if that's what I want to eat, or do you think slaughtering in daylight imbues them with extra flavour? Here you know nothing but what qanon fills your head with, so why would I bother mentioning you anywhere else when it's obvious you'd know nothing there? 2 Likes |

kkins25: I can tell from the half baked points you made about SBF which are straight out of misinformation portals as if SBF is being defended by anyone and won't get his just due if found to be breaking the law Bankruptcy process of a company takes time to establish where the assets and liabilities are, and.if the directors have committed any fraud in the course of their work Enron filed for bankruptcy in Dec 2001, their CFO wasn't arrested until October 2002 FTX has just been assigned a CEO to oversee this process who is the same CEO that unravelled the mess at Enron Secondly, there is little legal framework for Crypto. SBF executed a flywheel scheme which while being unethical may not be covered by laws as little or no laws have been passed for Crypto. Scheme illustrated below. To actually nab SBF, they will need more than flywheel scheme and need to establish whether he has transferred creditors assets to himself, which I'm sure they will be eager to do. The FBI has put in an extradition request to Bahamas for questioning. Note that questioning is different from charging. USA does not play with financial markets fraud regardless of who the offender is. Their whole financial system depends on it. Similar scheme was executed by Do Kwon with Luna in Singapore which collapsed in March or so, and till date, Do Kwon has not been charged by Singapore authorities because there is little legal framework to do so. So everything you typed only lets me know what your information sources and social media algorithms are leading you to, which is why I say you are on the borderline. A simple counterargument to the fallacy you typed is that FTX co CEO is equally a major Republican donor and has not been charged either. Any charging will be done after accounting investigations and audit trails, just like any other financial investigation, not because your misinformation sources tell you "he is at a stalemate" 4 Likes 3 Shares

IjeBos:Trump is social vehicle that is used to express displeasure at status quo, there are so many dynamics at play but i’m guessing that your dad is black so it will most likely be the religious/ conservative angle that makes trump appealing to him. |

MTG said she and other MAGAt Republicans have a plan to stop the special counsel: "the special counsel which is nothing but a democratic party campaign arm to campaign against Donald Trump who is running for President in 2024.. They can tell Jack Smith he is not going to get much of a paycheck. It's going to be real simple. We are not going to do this. That's it. We're gonna stop them and we are gonna do it through the power of the purse " 2 Likes 1 Share

Havertz10: My hypothesis has been, Trump appeals to people who are scared of losing power. White Males etc. They are scared of losing Power to minorities and women. I think that is where my dad fits in. He's not white but a successful man. And so he enjoys the power the social construct of the past, esp. Nigeria's past affords him. He sees the loss of power from his own selfish vantage point and wants to cling on to it esp. when it comes to women. Look at all the misogyny and sexism on this board. It all stems from the believe that women are not equal to men or men are divinely superior. That is what my dad believes. He's not shy about telling his children or his wife that he is our Lord and we should obey him. lol. There's also the fact that he got his. And doesn't want anyone to displace that. What's sad and frustrating is that the Republican policies he advocates, if successful would directly harm him. He has a very very good pension (I think it was 95% of his salary when he retired) and his salary was very good. And so it's amazing watching him cheer on Republicans as they talk about scaling back pensions or scaling back Medicare, which he is on as well. 2 Likes 1 Share |

adamusuleiman11: Yeah, she should have spent more time learning how governments work. The House is 1/2 of that purse, the Senate is the other. No such bill would pass the Senate. And to defund the Special Prosecutor they would most likely have to defund the whole Justice department. Good Luck with that. 3 Likes 1 Share |

raumdeuter: Special Prosecutors don't have a set timeline. They are independent of the Justice department so it's hard to stop them unless there is malfeasance. I would suspect he would try to wrap up by the middle of next year (indict, not indict), as far out as election season as possible. 2 Likes |

IjeBos:And why can't they defund the entire Justice department? If the only thing they are useful for is going after the the president and his party's political opponents, then they have to be checked. What Biden and his DOJ are doing is exactly what you expect in third world countries, some third world countries don't even do that anymore. There needs to be checks and balances in government, if the Executive arm starts behaving like third world dictators then it's the duty of the legislative and Judicial arms to put them in check. |

You are on a Nigerian platform and on a thread specifically opened for Nigerians interested in foreign politics to discuss it and yet you are whining about Nigerians discussing foreign politics. Is that not very stupid of you? If you don't want to see Nigerians discussing foreign politics then get the hell off Nairaland and go to a non Nigerian forum. 2 Likes 1 Share |

benalvino3: All the above is true, do you think your bank does not trade with your deposits or loan them out? Wait, let the authorities gather evidence against him that will stick properly, none of the above is going to put him away. They need to find illegality that will put him away for a long time, not poor ethics, poor leadership or poor capitalisation/money management. |

IjeBos:Our parents like that, it’s an archaic social norm that our generation would do away with. Most people on Nairaland don’t know shit, ideally a woman wants to be affectionate, it’s their nature, we men abused that by turning them into useful assets, thankfully a significant proportion of women are getting educated, becoming more self aware and assertive, things will improve, ignore those people, they will adapt, they don’t have a choice At the end of the day, if a woman loves you, she would easily afford you the same respect and attention, you don’t need a society norm to force her to give you that. I don’t know how old your dad is but the measures that republicans are proposing doesn’t completely eliminate social welfare broadly, they just want to limit the number of users. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Mintum: I don't live in Nigeria and spend just weeks there when I do visit. So, I come here for news and insight. I don't argue or forcefully engage on Nigerian politics/culture etc. Because I know I don't have the base of understanding or information to even argue rationally. So, I listen, learn and try to get informed. Same should be true vis-a-vis those in this topic. I never argued against discussing the US or having opinions on it. My comment was more to two posters on this board who want to dominate this thread with mis-truths, alternate facts and propaganda, all while leaving the impression that they have a greater base of understanding of the US all the while never having set foot in the US or really studied it. So instead of learning and discussing based on a common set of facts, we are here arguing basic US facts of History, Law and Government. If you enjoy that, carry on. 1 Like 1 Share |

Havertz10: Good post. The Republican proposals would have reduced pensions or eliminated them esp for people getting like 95% like my dad. There was a big push maybe 4 years ago (don't quote me on the exact time frame). They were basically trying to end the social contract of I believe the 60's which propelled a lot of people into the middle class. 1 Like |

Havertz10: Its more about Republicans cultivating misogyny for votes, right now you find people who will basically vote Republicans because they tell them women are supposed to be in the kitchen, people like Matt Gaetz make open misogyny tweets, there's a reason all these red pillers are always leaning R. 2 Likes 1 Share |
