Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- 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:
- 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.

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.
- 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.

Imagine the outrage if a representative showed Congress naked pictures of Ivanka that were stolen from her computer
Trump might actually show his face in congress to get a view of those.
The pictures were actually stolen from his computer.
He'd still show up
"Lots of people have been telling me they're the greatest pictures really the best"
"These pictures are the greatest pictures in the world but the corrupt far left wants to censor them"
How cute; you think he'd know how to get a picture onto a computer. Or how to use a computer. Or how to take a picture.
Leave my children alone! Talking to them is devastating to my case!
Objection your honor! -Trump
And why is that? - Judge
Because it's devastating to my cause... - Trump
Brought to by ~~Ace Ventura Let Detective~~ Liar Liar. Doing God's work since 1997
The quote is from Liar Liar
I knew that. I just woke up, lol
And it's case, not cause. :D
Its not our fault you sucked your own kids into your illegal business trympy... families that crime together do time together
Dude you appointed your kids to public servant roles... It's you that subjected them to this.
It’s just content tailored to his base to make him look oppressed. That’s why he keeps disregarding the gag order too.
I bet his kids say, "I don’t recall" a thousand times anyway.
Prosecution: "Is this your signature on the bottom of this document that I am now showing to the court?"
Don Jr.: "I don't recall."
Defense: "Objection, your honor. My client is blind and can't reasonably testify."
Judge: "Overruled. Mr. Trump Jr. is clearly not blind. Also, he's not your client.
Trump, on the steps: "The judge is biased against me! He won't even let my son testify to excommunicate me!"
*How I expect it to go*
"Eric is too stupid to not bring us all down"
He's an absolute wildcard. On one hand he's to stupid to do anything, on the other hand he's so stupid he could accidentally rat them all out.
Does Junior seem any smarter? He seems like he's got a real cocaine tongue, to boot.
Who? Eric "we get all the money we need from the Russians" Trump?
He's not worried about them. He's worried that his idiot kids won't be able to lie convincingly and it will ruin his defense.
Because he's the best liar, no one lies better than him.
As he calls for the prosecution of Hunter Biden for the umpteenth time.
He only cares because he's worried they might sell him out.
Wouldn’t you?
that won't happen. it's just for the quote the maga media can repeat all day.
Especially the daughter he openly lusts after.
It always strikes me as strange when anyone refers to their 30 or 40+ year old offspring, as children. They aren't remotely children in any way.
To me, i feel there's a difference between calling someone a child (indicating a youthful connotation) and being someone's child (a familial connotation).
My children will always be my children, but sometimes my oldest acts like a child.
If that makes any sense.
I thought the same thing until my kids became adults. It's just a parent thing.
I get that. But being their parent, and having the impulse to protect or defend them, doesn't mean it's the right thing to do.
Im not defending Trump's actions. They're plenty old enough to speak up for themselves. I'm merely saying it's not uncommon for a parent to refer to their offspring as "children" even after they're well into adulthood.
Obviously you don't have kids.
Won't somebody think of his poor tykes who never did anything wrong in their life and are being maliciously attacked for no reason at all!
You can call them family but that does not specify exactly who they are. Family can refer to brother and sisters or parents as well as your children. It would be pretty common to ask an 80 year old of they have any children. Don't think it really refers to a certain age of the child.
Offspring would be the term.
Or what? What's he going to do about it?
Also: ADULT children.
Criminal demands accomplices be left alone.
"Leave my children alone! The hot one and the idiot as well. Are there others? Leave them alone!"
Barron:

Second. Don't forget about the time he wanted to fuck Ivanka.
