Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Haha. Oops. Hanged, even.

Nah I think he could live with it when it was a secret with his friends when he had money, and when he secured the non prosecution agreement with the feds he probably thought he got away with it all. But then the feds ripped up the agreement, tried him, convicted him, and he went to prison. Based on the conviction, new civil suits came rolling in and I think he realized not only was he completely fucked, but he would never be wealthy again.

And the footage from the cameras in his cell were coincidently erased?

I think the guards testified they were busy looking at motorcycles and vacation spots when this happened. You know, things people may look at when they suddenly came across a lot of money to spend, lol.

[–] JustZ@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Not coincidentally, automatically.

Yes the guards were supposed to do rounds every thirty minutes and they didn't do it. This is common.

He has attempted suicide once two months before.

What exactly was stopping him of shipwreck including everyone else involved into the shady activities? I bet he owned enough material to get a lot of high profile bastards deep in shit too.

He just pissed out to the wrong people and got eliminated that's it, nothing new in the big spheres of wealthy and powerful people.

Remember the Feds are under the CIA governance.

That's what happens when you hangout with the wrong people. he just got isolated well enough to get an easy and clean dead cold ass WO leaving suspects. That's how the CIA works.

[–] JustZ@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This is conspiratorial nonsense based on your feelings.

[–] BlackSkinnedJew@lemmynsfw.com -4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Believe whatever you want to believe bud I truly don't care if you believe me or not, it's not like I am trying people to believe me.

[–] btaf45@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Remember the Feds are under the CIA governance.

Remember when someone told you that lie instead of rejecting it you were thrilled about being lied to.

[–] BlackSkinnedJew@lemmynsfw.com -1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Feds just do field work bud they are not a big thing, the CIA do remote shit real intelligence work, while the Feds are knocking doors the CIA it's finding Talibans hiding in holes. The ones who do the big shit it's the CIA.

Edit: Feds just follow the chief's orders.

The fact it's we don't even need to carry a gun bud, we work undercover no one except ourselfs know where we at.

[–] btaf45@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You are mistaking me for someone who loves to be lied to. The person who is thrilled to be lied to is you, not me. I just laugh at the lies and pity the liar.

[–] BlackSkinnedJew@lemmynsfw.com -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Ok sure bud, good luck 👍👍

The scandal wasn’t that rich people in general probably wouldn’t go to heaven, but that seemingly righteous people wouldn’t go to heaven.

George Bush is rich. It is easier for a camel to pass thru the eye of a needle than for George W Bush to enter heaven. How could Jesus be any more blunt than that? It is not merely difficult it is impossible for an ordinary rich person to go to heaven.

You can have wealth and those attributes

Only the extraordinary person who can achieve what Jesus bluntly says is almost impossible. Why would anybody who takes this stuff at all seriously risk eternal damnation by attempting a path that Jesus says is almost impossible? The answer is that they don't actually take it seriously and just ignore all the stuff in the bible they don't like.

The message here is that wealth doesn’t indicate favor with God and it cannot save you, so you should focus on what can save you.

The message clearly was that the only practical way for a rich person to go to heaven was to redistribute all their wealth to the poor.

Why does they need heaven if they already have technology to live forever?

[–] btaf45@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

For your own sake and that of people you know, please get professional help for your dishonesty fetish. Every time you double down it just becomes more embarrassingly obvious. You are writing lies that nobody is even reading -- that is your life now.

Just curious but why do you say I'm lying? I mean I am not trying to convince anyone about what I'm saying, but why specifically you think I'm lying? I believe I have a way to prove what I'm saying.

But first tell me which part of what I'm saying you can't believe to know how to answer.
