The Trump administration appeared to be making progress on Friday toward a deal that would give the United States valuable mineral rights in Ukraine. The movement came after a week in which President Trump, initially rebuffed on an agreement, turned up the pressure by assailing Ukraine and suggesting he would side with Russia in seeking to end the war there. Mr. Trump boasted at the White House that he was nearing a deal that could bring up to $500 billion to the United States. "So we're signing an agreement, hopefully in the next fairly short period of time," he said. President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine likewise said his country was working on a draft agreement between the two governments, seemingly tamping down the tensions that had flared with Mr. Trump over a deal. read more

Joe Biden threatened to withhold a billion loan to Ukraine unless they fired the prosecutor who was investigating the firm where Hunter was being handsomely paid to do nothing other than peddle influence. According to Danforth it was the cleanest and most ethical act he's ever witnessed.

You're a lying piece of shit

www.usatoday.com

Our rating: False
Based on our research, the claim that Joe Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion from Ukraine to save his son's job is FALSE. The then-vice president leveraged aid dollars to persuade the country to oust its top prosecutor as part of anti-corruption efforts endorsed by other international players that were unrelated to his son, Hunter Biden.

You have been informed and educated. Be a better person.

Interesting explanation on German freedom of expression

maint.loc.gov

I found this quite interesting.

This does not apply in the same way to assertions of facts. False information is not an object worthy of protection from the viewpoint of freedom of opinion (54 BVerfGE 208, 219). The deliberate assertion of untrue facts is not protected by article 5, paragraph 1 of the Basic Law; the same applies to wrong quotations (BVerfG, loc.cit.). . . . The communication of a fact is protected by freedom of opinion because and insofar as it forms the basis for an opinion. . . .

It would appears that lies are not protected free expression.

Jeff would be in trouble in Germany
