SOME THOUGHTS ON TRUMP'S CONVICTION

Trump's lawyers were hoping for a hung jury, instead they got a hanging jury

After two days of deliberation, a New York jury found Donald Trump guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records in the Stormy Daniels hush money case.

I do not believe any other person would have been so charged. This was simply a political persecution. The Democrats are desperate in trying to keep Trump from regaining the White House.

Having said that though, there was plenty of evidence that Trump covered up the fact that he paid Stormy $130,000 to keep her quiet about their making whoopee between the sheets. 

Paying hush money is not against the law, but covering it up by falsifying business records is. It's the coverup that always gets one into trouble.

Now we're left with the predicament of choosing between a convicted felon and a feeble old man who may croak in the middle of his term if he is reelected.

Will Trump's conviction help or hurt him? Right now he election appears to be very tight.

For the short haul, the conviction will energize Trumps base. But he needs more than his base to get elected. For the long haul, Trump needed this conviction like another hole in the head.

More important than the conviction is the abortion issue. Trump needs the women's vote. But his pronouncement on that issue may very well have cost him that vote.

Also important are the Biden-Trump debates, if they actually take place. If Trump does poorly during the scheduled June 27 debate, he's toast.

Add the abortion issue and a poor debate performance to Trump's conviction, and the nation's voters will elect the first woman president of the United States.

PIECE OF OBAMA SHIT BLINKEN ATTACKS ISRAEL OVER ITS CONDUCT OF THE WAR AGAINST HAMAS

By Howie Katz


Antony BlinkenUS Secretary of State Antony Blinken, a holdover from the Obama administration, has been attacking Israel's conduct of its war with Hamas

 

Blinken's State Department has released a report that all but accuses Israel of committing war crimes in Gaza. Piece of Obama shit Blinken says he agrees with that assessment. 

President Biden is withholding the shipment of 3,500 bombs to Israel because he does not want them dropped on the  Hamas stronghold of Rafah. Biden also told CNN that he was considering stopping all offensive arms shipments to Israel if the IDF attacked Rafah.

Blinken and Biden are preventing Israel from defeating Hamas

 

Both Biden and Blinken are conveniently disregarding the fact that the U.S. killed hundreds of thousands of civilians by carpet bombing Vietnam, Cambodia, Iraq and Afghanistan. And going back to World War II, never mind the deliberate targeting of civilians in German cities and the Japanese cities of Tokyo, Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

The bombing of Hiroshima alone killed 140,000 men, women and children. Thousands more people died from radiation sickness in the weeks, months and years thereafter. .

But when civilians are killed by the IDF in Gaza during Israel's war with Hamas, that's a war crime for which Israel must be punished by the withholding of arms shipments from the U.S.

Biden and Blinken are preventing Israel from defeating Hamas and thereby are putting the survival of the Jewish state in jeopardy.

ADDENDUM: It has just been reported that the UN has slashed the number of women and children killed in Gaza by 50 percent. Instead of  9,500 women 14,500 children killed, as reported by the Gaza Ministry of Health, the UN has reduced those numbers to 4,959 women and 7,797 children. 

Israel has always maintained that the Gaza Ministry of Health, a Hamas organization, has deliberately inflated the number of women and children killed.

BIDEN TWISTS THE BLADE WHILE STABBING ISRAEL IN THE BACK

By Howie Katz

President Biden has stopped the shipment of 3,500 bombs to Israel, bombs Israel needs to eliminate Hamas. That's not only stabbing Israel in the back, but twisting the blade as well.

Here's is what Biden told CNN today:

“Civilians have been killed in Gaza as a consequence of those bombs and other ways in which they go after population centers. I made it clear that if they go into Rafah — they haven’t gone in Rafah yet — if they go into Rafah, I’m not supplying the weapons that have been used historically to deal with Rafah, to deal with the cities, that deal with that problem.”

Well, not exactly. When Biden said “they haven't gone in Rafah yet” he had already stopped the shipment of those 3,500 bombs.

Here is an interesting take from Israel Hayom: Biden pressuring Israel not to attack Hamas in Rafah is akin to Mexico conquering Houston, and the world then telling the U.S. not to attack the Mexicans because the threat is not really serious. Moreover, you must feed the murderers, acquiesce to their demands, and pay an enormous price for the Houstonians who were abducted.

Biden is crippling Israel when he should be crippling Iran which is on the brink of possessing nuclear bombs. 

Biden says he will keep supplying Israel with defensive weapons, which it will need because the Jewish state will be in constant danger of attacks by Hamas, Hezbollah and other Iran proxies as the result of the president's backstabbing policies.
