You think those two countries have as much dominance as say France and Germany? Just a bit more influence than Britain now that some bright sparks decided to give up their seat at the table. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Bundy Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 27 minutes ago, BigPP said: It is inevitable that larger countries will have more influence than smaller ones but nevertheless the smaller ones still have a veto. EU member states treat other members not as foes but as friends. That's why the European Coal and Steel Community/EEC/EU has proven to be the most successful peace project in history. This is something Brexiteers will never understand. Psychologically they're still fighting WW2 even though it end 78 years ago. On the surface maybe, but behind closed doors I highly doubt it.

trastrick Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 (edited) Hunter gets a pass! It was in the cards. No prosecution, no perp walk, no trial and dirty laundry spilled in public. And of course no jail time. NO LAPTOP! The Bidens, the Left and the MSM are actually celebrating! They know the Swamp won another one! Elections have consequences!

The Left love Republican losers, who denounce their winners. What we have here, is a banana republic. North Korea style!

No prosecution, no perp walk, no trial and dirty laundry spilled in public. And of course no jail time. Meanwhile, back in the real world: Sorry, MAGA World: If Hunter's Name Wasn't 'Biden,' He'd Never Have Been Charged Quote President Joe Biden's son Hunter Biden has reached a plea deal with David Weiss, the Trump appointed U.S. Attorney for Delaware. Hunter has agreed to plead guilty to two counts of failing to pay taxes and filing a false document relating to a gun permit. And the Right has gone apoplectic. "President's Son Gets Sweetheart Deal From Feds on Gun, Tax Charges" declares the Free Beacon, echoing a phrase that has become the defining one for Republicans talking about the announcement. Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy called evidence of a "two-tiered" U.S. justice system while Republican pundits have spent the day claiming that any other American would have faced jail time for what Hunter did. But they have the story exactly reversed: If Hunter's last name wasn't Biden, he would never have been charged. His crimes would likely have been settled administratively with a fine. Sorry MAGA world, but that's the truth: Most people who do what Hunter did don't get prosecuted. Both the tax and gun charges are rarely brought against first-time offenders and almost never result in jail time. This is the conclusion drawn by many legal experts, folks like Andrew Weissmann, a former FBI general counsel, and former federal prosecutor Renato Mariotti. People charged with the kinds of crimes Hunter is accused of tend to pay their back taxes, as Hunter arranged to have done, and then they are fined. But that was never going to be an option for Hunter Biden—for the exact reason MAGA says he got off scot free. In fact, he faced a harsher sentence than probably any other American would have for similar crimes, no doubt because he is the President's son and it wouldn't do for the Right-wing conspiratorial fever dream to have even a whiff of truth to it.
