re: Was there really an Atlantis?

We hear 'advanced technology' and immediately some think lasers and levitation beams. But that's not what anyone should think at all.
That is what a LOT of people in this area think, sadly.
When you take away the fantastical and say "There could have been a typical society for the time that was skilled at seafaring located off the coast of Northwestern Africa slightly earlier than we first thought" you'll lose a lot of converts to the faith.

Just how does a bronze age (or earlier) civilization with no known preceding skills in architecture, engineering, fabrication, manufacturing, etc... on any capable scale construct such structures?
The Giza Pyramids were created around 2500 BC. That was a Bronze Age civilization, too. And we know who built them (there are records).

'Slaves and a bunch of rope' doesn't even begin to explain it.
Modern people have shown how this wasn't as complicated as we make it out to be, and these Bronze Age societies were clever.
I love the Bronze Age. LOVE it. And the one thing in these discussions that always seems to emerge is a lack of respect for the cleverness of these people. Instead of being in awe of how these people were able to develop humanity and society, people today try to insult them by claiming they couldn't possibly do x, y, and z, so, aliens (or Atlantis).

How can you when there is documented proof this is wrong? I don't mean you have to believe dinosaurs are millions of years old, either. We have literal documentation of human society through archeology, written accounts, and history that dates back about double that 6k year figure.
And the problem is that most of this archeology and history are of literally from the same locations. Like the city of Babylon, for instance. That same city has been in a cycle of occupation for 4500 years. And Babylon wasn't even part of Sumer, which is a much older civilization in the same larger area.
Egypt is another one. For a reference point the pyramids of Giza are 4500 years old and we have a pretty good record of a continuous Egyptian society for longer than that.
And we can track back all of the proto civilizations a bit further back than organized society, both via archeology and linguistics. Then there are things like the various Tepe sites (Karahan Tepe, Gobekli Tepe) that push back organized society even further double the time you say Earth has existed.
What, exactly, is the argument? That the Devil created all of this evidence and false histories of the very region where a sect of Canaanites broke off to create a monotheistic religion over time out of the old Canaanite religion? That doesn't even work because we know what Canaanite (from the Bible) DNA is.

And why did it live on well into the Trump presidency?
This is where the conspiracy allegations get wonky.
And a lot of this was perpetuated by the Trump admin's own special counsel, Robert Mueller, which, as I pointed out earlier, ends the prior conspiracy allegations.

So Trump hates Adam Schiff. He could have directed his CIA to plant kiddie porn (probably right next to the existing kiddie porn) on Schiff's laptop and then had it discovered by the FBI. That may be dirty politics, but it's legal?
Some of us warned people what this level of immunity could do in real time during that case.

I said most of it
But the point was people are confusing Trump's campaign with his Presidency.
Similar to the laptop thread, where people are confusing similar things.

So let's assume that Bronco is 100% accurate in what he's posted. It was a concerted effort, based on known lies/distortions, to subvert Trump's presidency.
That's not possible. Trump wasn't President at any point during that process.
Most of it occurred before Trump was even the official nomination for the Republican Party.

Because the Mar-a-Lago raid was one of the first outcomes of the conspiracy to violate Donald Trump's civil rights.
But you have to craft the conspiracy from that backwards, which isn't impossible, but it is close to it.

Not really.

So you agree with me. That's not seditious conspiracy by definition.
Potentially election interference, although that's not particularly strong.

Part of the legal definition is to prevent or hinder the execution of federal laws, and a Federal Election would qualify as such.

So is it who appointed him, or the SOL?
What a strange question. I'll try to educate you.
To get around the SOL (and venue/jurisdiction rules), they're arguing a conspiracy. They're citing Mueller's appointment as a node in that conspiracy to connect that behavior prior to and successive to the appointment.
Who appointed Mueller kills the ability to rationally argue that's a node in the conspiracy. The fact Mueller gave Trump one of his biggest Ws in Trump's 1st admin completely destroys the argument.

You could argue election interference, possibly.
But the laptop story in no way "overthrew" the current Trump admin in 2020.
You could argue it had an impact on the potential successive admin that would have started in 2021, but that's not sedition, either.

How does this work? Who determines what's an executive function
You just look at the core roles of the executive.
Obama heads all of the intelligence agencies and all of their functions are executive functions. He's 100% immune for any actions taken in this sphere, which includes the allegations alleged.
quote:
and is there any limitation to that immunity?
Not if it's a core duty.
quote:
Absolute Immunity: Applies to "conclusive and preclusive" core constitutional powers. This immunity exists regardless of the president's motive, even if actions are alleged to be part of a conspiracy or done for a corrupt purpose.
quote:
Presumptive Immunity: Applies to other official acts falling within the "outer perimeter" of official responsibility.
