Free Republic

A woman, now around 40, born between 1980-87, comes forward saying Trump and Epstein raped her in the 90s. The media will break out the old phrase "Trump has been credibly accused" and daily remind everyone of course that he was sued civilly for sexual abuse and lost.

A vanity that I have done in years.

Does anyone know how old the Free Republic software is? Doesn't appear to have been updated in at least the 20 years that I've been here. It would be nice to have hyperlinks and better interfaces and a better search function. Not just text and photo files in line. It looks like Craigslist looked about 25 years ago. Anybody with software experience have any thoughts on this?

Very surprised and disappointed that Governor Abbott failed to sign a bill that would have stopped having "Cannabis" legal in Texas.and millions of pot shops popping up on every street corner. Not to mention all the crime that goes hand and hand with weed legalization.

Let’s say Russia takes over Ukraine (one of the most corrupt countries in the world)… then what? As long as Russia doesn’t go on an ethnic cleansing rampage (doubtful given their common ethnic origins), and honors the mineral agreement with the USA, why should we care?

Let's all act as if we have wax in our ears and cannot hear or even understand Putin's simple set of claims he has always put forward if the SMO is to end. Let's all pretend Putin is Genghis Khan 2.0 wanting to take over the 'free' and 'democratic'(laughs) world. Let's all pretend everything we say and do is destroying Russia, its economy, and Putin's government. Let's also pretend Russia is also running out of weapons and many more of its soldiers are dying than those in Ukrainian forces. Let's pretend that there is no BRICS or SCO Let's pretend...

Prove me wrong.

I saw something on TV here which reminded people the Royals live / hang out in various palaces and there are quite a few of them in England! It's amazing when you think about it they live quite ostentatiously far beyond most people in huge palaces (or estates), in huge grounds (lol). Is any of it overly necessary ? It really is good to be King.

So what's up with the "HUGE TESLA ARRESTS" that she spoke about yesterday, stating that we would see them in the next 24 hours. As for me, I am growing weary with her empty bravado and empty promises. She is making herself look bad.

This generation is lost.

I've noticed, over the years, that very old Free Republic accounts, accounts that have been inactive for months or years, suddenly reactivate.... but their politics are suddenly suspect. Be they Zeeper-oriented (that is, super-favorable to Ukraine) or, conversely, super-favorable to Russia, or even suddenly-liberal... these accounts reactivate with a flurry of posts that are contrary to conservatism. Are these real Freepers who have had a change of heart about their politics? Are these real Freepers who feel the need to jump on the forum with propaganda and support for one side or the other per the Ukraine/Russia war? Or are...

Don't all answer at the same time

I came here tonight with pre meditation, armed with a weapon against the President of The United States.

No RFK files. No JFK files. No Epstein client list. No arrests. Just strongly worded letters and Fox news interviews. Have we been duped?

This thread was pulled for "Bogus Headline"https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/4301490/postsYet the link to the article clearly shows that the headline is posted VERBATIM.https://www.dailysignal.com/2025/03/01/10-bad-takeaways-from-the-zelenskyy-blowup/It looks as though some of our illustrious mods have an interesting view of what constitutes inaccurate headlines.

This is a simple question, but one that needs you to seriously consider before you respond. This is because, when you think about it, you will then be confronted with the reality that most of the wars America has been in since the end of WWII have nothing to do with our national interests. Now we could argue whether or not WWI was in our best interest. Yet since the end of WWII, other than a very few instance, our military actions have almost exclusively been because of problems caused by European nations. (Both Western and Eastern nations) Mind you,...

When German and Russian defense sensitivities led Russia to mobilize and Germany to respond; and then Poland became a target for division between the two, all of Europe and then the U.S. became participants in a trench war that killed millions of young men. When the health system of the time was totally unable to cope with the influenza that followed the war, millions more died. I don't want to see that for my family, my country or my world. As much as I dislike the Russian history of paranoid aggression, and as much as I admire Ukraine's determined resistance...

Ok, Ms. Bondi, I get it. Yesterday you were snookered by a totally corrupted FBI, who claimed to have given you all the Epstein material, but in fact only gave you a version of what was already out there. Let us leave aside the fact that you should have thoroughly vetted the material, especially from such an unscrupulous outfit as the FBI. I would expect, in response to that humiliation, that you would be going right to SDNY, with Marshals, in force, and seizing the material in person. But I'm hearing nothing as of 11AM EST. Please do not disappoint...

This means the Cardinals will soon have to select a new Pope. I think this time they will try to remain relevant, and do something new, exciting and culturally cutting edge. They are going to select a woman to be Pope. Suppose I'm right. Suppose this female Pope has a sibling. Suppose this sibling has a child. What would that child call the new Pope?...
