And look what happened? His allegiance was not to our country. Who could have guessed?


Neither was Aldrich Ames, Robert Hanssen or Jonathan Pollard, et al. Who would've guessed?

Same with Trump.

He owes allegiance to nobody but himself.

Can anyone explain or justify drupmf pardoning a very crooked Sheriff, who was convicted by a jury of some heinous corruption and sentenced to 10 years.

"Pres. Trump on Monday granted an unconditional pardon to a Virginia sheriff who had been convicted of federal bribery charges and sentenced to 10 years in federal prison.

Scott Jenkins, who had been the sheriff of Culpeper County, Virginia, was set to report to jail on Tuesday.

Jenkins was convicted by a jury in December 2024 on charges including one count of conspiracy, four counts of honest services fraud and seven counts of bribery concerning federally funded programs.


I'll answer my own question... To undermine faith in the DOJ ready for when it comes after him again.

And your ostrich like head in the sand is why the Democrats turned off so many people that the worst presidential candidate in history beat an average Democrat.

It appears to be Biden lawfare. The sheriff was denied the ability to use exculpatory evidence in his defense. For those that went to second rate law schools and think appointing judges is "packing a court", this is evidence that helps prove a defendant's innocence.

Given how Biden set a standard of pardoning people not even charged, I am believing this and other good reasons were why Trump did this.

What am I avoiding, if I stick my head in the sand? Please be explicit, if you can.

And I hope those voters who voted for the worst candidate in history, and those that avoided voting for the average Dem have the day they voted for.

Because Donny is as venal, fickle, without character, integrity, morals and honor as they come.

The oaf's puppeteers / handlers told him to do it, so he did, just like they've scripted his moves since reelection.

This one rhymes with the current high-flyer NVDA.

My guess is they're fudging the books through inventory management.


I think they're in deep trouble.

We'll see if I'm correct within a year or so, although they have earnings today.


They need to place tons of semis.

The pace is not sustainable.


The scale this time has a much higher factor.

What Went Wrong at Cisco in 2001

Aug 1, 2001

The company’s first negative quarter in more than a decade. In the third fiscal quarter of 2001, sales plunged 30 percent. Chambers wrote off a mountain of inventory $2.2 billion high, and 8,500 people were laid off. On April 6, Cisco’s stock sunk to $13.63. Thirteen months earlier, it had been $82.

Wouldn't YOU be the one who voted for the worst candidate? The one giggling about why she could not do the one big job she had to do?
