Tell that to Larry Sinclair .....
You might have had sex with Sinclair, Obama didn't.
Tell that to Larry Sinclair .....
He is not required to show any tax records. That's the law. He has not lied about them either.
He doesn't have to answer them. I wouldn't pay Mueller much attention either.
No, you are lying, just like other Democrats.
Already am. You are not. You wish to destroy the Constitution of the United States.
He is when Congress requests them.
Then why lie about answering them as Trump did?
Typical tripe of the mindless right wing. Don't have an intelligent response so just lie some more.
Ahh yes, another typical lie. Is that why your Repugnant ones ignore it all the time? That and the rule of law.
Nope. The Constitution does NOT give authority to Congress to demand any such thing. The 1st and 4th amendments specifically prohibit such a thing.He is when Congress requests them.
He didn't, liar.Then why lie about answering them as Trump did?
You are just projecting yourself again.Typical tripe of the mindless right wing. Don't have an intelligent response so just lie some more.
Nah. You really do want to destroy the Constitution of the United States.Ahh yes, another typical lie.
No, it is YOU that is ignoring the rule of law.Is that why your Repugnant ones ignore it all the time? That and the rule of law.
Whether they do or not has no bearing on the fact that they were indicted as a result of the investigation into Russian interference. They are subject to the indictments because those individuals are now subject to arrest if they visit any country which has an extradition treaty with the US. The bottom line is the indictments of the Russians are clearly indictments that go the core of stated reason for the investigation.Do you really think the Russians consider themselves subject to Mueller's indictments???![]()
That is a possibility and wouldn't be the first time they have done that to make an example. But we do know that they didn't contact CNN to tell them before hand. CNN just happened to be staking out Stone's house because of what was happening outside the court room the previous day.I do. I think it's obvious. They wanted to make an example of him.
We don't know if he had a gun in the house or not. You are making up facts that aren't in evidence. CNN has said it wasn't scheduled to film it, they just go lucky to have a crew there based on a producer that thought something might be happening soon.He wasn't armed, dude. Even if he did have a gun, that does NOT warrant a pre-dawn raid and scheduling CNN to film the whole thing! You are REALLY reaching.
I did not make up Stone's instagram post. It exists. The judge clearly felt it was enough to sanction Stone. Googling "Stone threatens Judge" will get you multiple news stories. Stone says he didn't mean it as a threat but the reaction of others was to see it that way.He did not threaten any judge. You are making crap up.
It seems you don't know what logical fallacies are. There is no such thing as an "irrelevance fallacy" in logic. My questioning your statement as being factual is hardly a logical fallacy. All the laws she broke? When you can cite the laws she broke with evidence of how she broke them then we can discuss any special treatment. Just because you claim something to be true does not make it true. My questioning your "facts" isn't a logical fallacy. Your failure to provide supporting evidence of your "facts" but instead just repeating the claim would be an example of argumentum ad nauseam. (We can discuss the facts of Stone's instagram after you google it. In the case of Hillary breaking several laws the overriding authority is Comey's statement where he states there is no crime that could be reasonably prosecuted.)Irrelevance fallacy. You are forgetting all the special treatment she got by getting a pass for all the laws she broke.
Since you want to talk fallacies you have just introduced the red herring fallacy as well as the appeal to ridicule. Trump refused to be interviewed by the FBI. Hillary agreed to and was interviewed by the FBI. Claiming the FBI is Trump's department is a red herring and has nothing to do with the fact that Trump refused to be interviewed.Trump does not have to agree to be interviewed by the FBI. The FBI is his department. Did you forget that?![]()
You might have had sex with Sinclair, Obama didn't.
Congress is given it's power in Art I of the Constitution. It is granted 2 powers that would apply.Nope. The Constitution does NOT give authority to Congress to demand any such thing. The 1st and 4th amendments specifically prohibit such a thing.
Bull. CNN just 'happened to be there' when the pre-dawn raid team arrived, eh? Why was CNN even in the neighborhood? What other reason was there for them to even be there?That is a possibility and wouldn't be the first time they have done that to make an example. But we do know that they didn't contact CNN to tell them before hand. CNN just happened to be staking out Stone's house because of what was happening outside the court room the previous day.
Irrelevance fallacy. Having a gun in the house does NOT warrant a pre-dawn raid of that sort.We don't know if he had a gun in the house or not.
No, you are making an argument out a straw man.You are making up facts that aren't in evidence.
Sure, buddy. Sure. You really believe that too, doncha?CNN has said it wasn't scheduled to film it, they just go lucky to have a crew there based on a producer that thought something might be happening soon.
It was not a threat.I did not make up Stone's instagram post. It exists. The judge clearly felt it was enough to sanction Stone. Googling "Stone threatens Judge" will get you multiple news stories. Stone says he didn't mean it as a threat but the reaction of others was to see it that way.
A logical fallacy is an error in logic, just like an error in math. Logic is a closed system, just like mathematics.It seems you don't know what logical fallacies are.
Yes there is. There is no 'official list' of fallacies. An irrelevance fallacy is the use of irrelevant information to form or support an unrelated argument.There is no such thing as an "irrelevance fallacy" in logic.
Not the reason for the fallacy, dude. You were bringing up an irrelevant point. You have lost context here. This portion is done.My questioning your statement as being factual is hardly a logical fallacy.
Yes. I listed them.All the laws she broke?
I already did. Pay attention.When you can cite the laws she broke
Public record, dude.with evidence of how she broke them
You don't want to discuss anything about special treatment. You want to nitpick.then we can discuss any special treatment.
Just because you claim something is false does not make it false.Just because you claim something to be true does not make it true.
Argument by repetition fallacy.My questioning your "facts" isn't a logical fallacy.
I am not repeating the claim. You repeat yours though.Your failure to provide supporting evidence of your "facts" but instead just repeating the claim would be an example of argumentum ad nauseam.
Irrelevant. This has nothing to do with the predawn raid or why it happened.(We can discuss the facts of Stone's instagram after you google it. In the case of Hillary breaking several laws the overriding authority is Comey's statement where he states there is no crime that could be reasonably prosecuted.)
Fallacy fallacy. No red herring or redirection was attempted at all.Since you want to talk fallacies you have just introduced the red herring fallacy
Not a fallacy in all cases, dude.as well as the appeal to ridicule.
So what? It's his choice. He doesn't have to be interviewed by the FBI.Trump refused to be interviewed by the FBI.
So what? Irrelevance fallacy. It has nothing to do with her crimes.Hillary agreed to and was interviewed by the FBI.
WRONG. Fallacy fallacy. The fact that the FBI is in the executive branch makes a requirement that he be interviewed by the FBI rather irrelevant.Claiming the FBI is Trump's department is a red herring
Actually, it does. He has the choice to not be interviewed by his own department.and has nothing to do with the fact that Trump refused to be interviewed.
WRONG. It is not granted the power to create tax law. It is given the power to lay certain taxes. It is also restricted in how those taxes are levied. They cannot tax one group and not another. Note that it required an amendment to authorize taxing incomes.Congress is given it's power in Art I of the Constitution. It is granted 2 powers that would apply.
It is granted the power to create tax law and the power to pass any law necessary and proper for the execution of any power granted under the Constitution.
Making an accusation without evidence is not providing a redress of grievances, dude.Let's look at how the first and the fourth amendments might apply.
AMENDMENT I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Taxes aren't religion, the press, a peaceable assembly or a petition for a redress of grievances. That would mean you are claiming freedom of speech applies here but Congress only can't abridge freedom of speech. It says nothing about privacy of a document provided to the government. You would have to argue that somehow by looking at a tax return Congress is forcing a citizen to speak in a manner they don't wish to. The citizen is no longer in control of that document when it is given to the government under the power to tax. It is not a speech issue at all. The law actually states Congress can't release the document to the general public without the citizen's consent. The only issue here is which branch of the government can see the document the government possesses. That is hardly a free speech issue. The law is what controls who can see the document and prevents its release to the public. The law clearly states Congress can look at it if they request to do so.
It is, but it doesn't have to be.As for the 4th amendment :
AMENDMENT IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
There are a couple things about trying to apply this. First of all the document in question is not in the control of the person.
Under duress. Submitting such information under duress violates the 4th and 5th amendments in and of itself.It has been submitted to the government.
If they accuse someone using evidence gathered illegally, or using no evidence, they are violating the constitution.Secondly, Congress can't charge anyone with a crime.
No, they cannot submit that information.They can certainly submit something for prosecution.
That is why they cannot submit such information to the prosecution.It is when prosecution is a possibility that the 4th amendment would come into question.
No court has the authority to change the Constitution of the United States, dude. Consensus is not a valid method of changing the Constitution of the United States either. Obviously, you don't care about that document and what it says.Prior to that most courts would probably say since there is no threat of prosecution there is no reason to apply the 4th amendment to a document that the government already possesses.
No, it is YOU that is ignoring the rule of law.
I'm going to ignore the usual ignorance demonstrated by the right wing class of idiots, and give you something else to lie about, or act like a dumb f**k in regards to Trump:
"Section 6103(f)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) reads:
Upon written request from the chairman of the Committee on Ways and Means of the House of Representatives, the chairman of the Committee on Finance of the Senate, or the chairman of the Joint Committee on Taxation, the Secretary [of the Treasury] shall furnish such committee with any return or return information specified in such request, except that any return or return information which can be associated with, or otherwise identify, directly or indirectly, a particular taxpayer shall be furnished to such committee only when sitting in closed executive session unless such taxpayer otherwise consents in writing to such disclosure."
Articles 4, and 5, do not apply since Trump filed the returns, and it he lied, which he more then likely did, he has already incriminated himself.
No ....he sucked Obama's dick ..... But, that's not "sex" is it . Lol !
Probably in your mentally deranged mind. But what the hell, you love f**king dogs so why not lie about others. Tell us what does dog cum taste like?

Your response is argument from incredulity. Just because you don't believe it does not make their claims false. Their claim is well laid out and reasonable. One need only apply Occam's razor.Bull. CNN just 'happened to be there' when the pre-dawn raid team arrived, eh? Why was CNN even in the neighborhood? What other reason was
If those serving the warrant think the person may harm themselves or others they will conduct a no knock raid. They will also do that if they suspect evidence may be destroyed.Irrelevance fallacy. Having a gun in the house does NOT warrant a pre-dawn raid of that sort.
A straw man requires I misstate your argument and then attempt to defeat it. I was defending my statement by providing more details after you didn't believe me. Hardly a straw man.No, you are making an argument out a straw man.
argument from incredulitySure, buddy. Sure. You really believe that too, doncha?![]()
That is your conclusion. It was not the way it was taken by others.It was not a threat.
I hope you aren't as bad at math as you are at logic.A logical fallacy is an error in logic, just like an error in math. Logic is a closed system, just like mathematics.
There are many lists of fallacies. What you are referring to is actually called a relevance fallacy.Yes there is. There is no 'official list' of fallacies. An irrelevance fallacy is the use of irrelevant information to form or support an unrelated argument.
If I have lost context it would actually be a red herring fallacy. But I didn't lose context. I was responding directly to your statement and pointing out you were begging the question when you claimed Clinton was let off easy for her crimes. I asked you to show us her crimes. You failed to do so and still refuse to do so. That would make my question very relevant to your failure to support your argument.Not the reason for the fallacy, dude. You were bringing up an irrelevant point. You have lost context here. This portion is done.
No. The public record is here...Yes. I listed them.
I already did. Pay attention.
Public record, dude.
Pointing out facts that directly contradict your opinion is hardly nitpicking. It goes straight to the heart of the matter.You don't want to discuss anything about special treatment. You want to nitpick.
No. It doesn't. That is why I post how to find the information that supports what I am saying. You still haven't posted anything in support of your claim that Clinton committed crimes.Just because you claim something is false does not make it false.
You really have no clue how fallacies work. Argument by repetition requires that no support be given but a statement just be repeated. If support is given it can't be argument by repetition. Not addressing a specific statement but bringing up another topic is a red herring. It is an appeal to ridicule when you don't support your argument at the same time.Argument by repetition fallacy.
I am not repeating the claim. You repeat yours though.
Irrelevant. This has nothing to do with the predawn raid or why it happened.
Fallacy fallacy. No red herring or redirection was attempted at all.
Not a fallacy in all cases, dude.
So what? It's his choice. He doesn't have to be interviewed by the FBI.
So what? Irrelevance fallacy. It has nothing to do with her crimes.
WRONG. Fallacy fallacy. The fact that the FBI is in the executive branch makes a requirement that he be interviewed by the FBI rather irrelevant.
Actually, it does. He has the choice to not be interviewed by his own department.
How can Congress lay taxes if they can't create tax law? You do realize your argument is idiotic, don't you?WRONG. It is not granted the power to create tax law. It is given the power to lay certain taxes. It is also restricted in how those taxes are levied. They cannot tax one group and not another. Note that it required an amendment to authorize taxing incomes.
That statement doesn't even make sense. If they made an accusation without evidence and then jailed the person without a trial one could make an argument they did not provide an avenue for redress of grievances but there are other amendments that would take precedence at that point.Making an accusation without evidence is not providing a redress of grievances, dude.
Irrelevant piffle. Submitting tax documents in no way violates the 4th and 5th amendment. There is a rather long history of people trying to make that claim to avoid taxes. Some of them have spent time in jail for making such frivolous arguments. Many have avoided jail time for their ignorance but they still paid taxes and penalties.It is, but it doesn't have to be.
Under duress. Submitting such information under duress violates the 4th and 5th amendments in and of itself.
Let's examine this. If someone is accused without evidence then the person doing so violated the Constitution. Would you agree that is the essence of your statement?If they accuse someone using evidence gathered illegally, or using no evidence, they are violating the constitution.
More irrelevant piffle. You are assuming a conclusion that hasn't happened.No, they cannot submit that information.
That is why they cannot submit such information to the prosecution.
I never once said a court has the authority to change the Constitution. This would be a good example of a straw man on your part.No court has the authority to change the Constitution of the United States, dude. Consensus is not a valid method of changing the Constitution of the United States either. Obviously, you don't care about that document and what it says.
The Internal Revenue Code does not override the Constitution of the United States, dude.
Being required to file the returns is in and of itself a violation of the 4th and 5th amendments.
I'm going to ignore the usual ignorance demonstrated by the right wing class of idiots, and give you something else to lie about, or act like a dumb f**k in regards to Trump:
"Section 6103(f)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) reads:

Articles 4, and 5, do not apply since Trump filed the returns, and it he lied, which he more then likely did, he has already incriminated himself.
Fallacy fallacy. Compositional error fallacy.Your response is argument from incredulity.
Never said it did. Similarly, just because you believe it does not make their claims True.Just because you don't believe it does not make their claims false.
No, it isn't. It is based on a hatred for Trump and anyone associated with him.Their claim is well laid out and reasonable.
Occam's razor doesn't have any meaning here, and it is not a proof.One need only apply Occam's razor.
Sorry dude, you can't justify a predawn raid like that using what if's and circular arguments.If those serving the warrant think the person may harm themselves or others they will conduct a no knock raid. They will also do that if they suspect evidence may be destroyed.
Yes there is. It is making irrelevant arguments. Depending on the context, it may also be referred to as a non-sequitur fallacy, a strawman fallacy, a redirection fallacy, or a red herring fallacy.(There is no such thing as an "irrelevance fallacy.
I am not repeating the claim. You are.Repeating that claim doesn't make it so.
Logic. But you deny it.Until you can point me to a credible source for such a fallacy
Fallacy fallacy.you are simply resorting to argumentum ad nauseam.)
WRONG. A strawman argument requires no such misstatement. It is simply a redirection to an irrelevant argument and defeating it.A straw man requires I misstate your argument and then attempt to defeat it.
No, you weren't. You are not defending anymore except your own illiteracy.I was defending my statement by providing more details after you didn't believe me. Hardly a straw man.
No just my conclusion, dude. You are deluded.That is your conclusion. It was not the way it was taken by others.
It is math. All numbers are defined by proofs extending the axioms of mathematics.I hope you aren't as bad at math as you are at logic.
4 <---- a number but not math
Also math. The addition binomial is also defined by the axioms of mathematics.2+2=4 <--- math
Not a fact. An argument. Learn what a 'fact' is.The media reported it as a threat. <---- Statement of fact.
Try English. It works better.While this could be seen as a premise it isn't a conclusion on my part so it can't be a logical fallacy.
Nope. That does not make it a fallacy.You don't think it was a threat <----- a conclusion on your part so it could be a logical fallacy.
Yes there are. NONE of them are authoritative.There are many lists of fallacies.
False authority fallacy. There is no official or authoritative list of fallacies.What you are referring to is actually called a relevance fallacy.
No, it simply means you have lost context. You are losing more and more context as you concentrate on showing off your illiteracy in logic and math.If I have lost context it would actually be a red herring fallacy.
Yes you did.But I didn't lose context.
Void argument fallacy. You can't even recall the statement in question.I was responding directly to your statement
Not the context. Try again. I am not begging any question with this statement either.and pointing out you were begging the question when you claimed Clinton was let off easy for her crimes.
I did.I asked you to show us her crimes.
I did.You failed to do so and still refuse to do so.
I did.That would make my question very relevant to your failure to support your argument.
No, the FBI is not the only public record.No. The public record is here...
...deleted link to FBI...
WRONG. It simply means they are not going to make any charges. A chargeable crime may still exist."No charges are appropriate in this case." That would mean there are no chargeable crimes.
You are nitpicking. You are showing off your illiteracy in logic and math doing it, too.Pointing out facts that directly contradict your opinion is hardly nitpicking.
Void argument fallacy. You can't even describe what the heart of the matter is anymore.It goes straight to the heart of the matter.
Don't need to. Anyone can look it up.No. It doesn't. That is why I post how to find the information that supports what I am saying. You still haven't posted anything in support of your claim that Clinton committed crimes.
They don't 'work'. The simply are.You really have no clue how fallacies work.
No, it simply means the argument be repeated without regard to any counter-argument.Argument by repetition requires that no support be given but a statement just be repeated.
Yes it can.If support is given it can't be argument by repetition.
It can be. It is what you are doing.Not addressing a specific statement but bringing up another topic is a red herring.
Ridiculing another's argument is not a fallacy in and of itself. Counter-arguments are real arguments.It is an appeal to ridicule when you don't support your argument at the same time.
