So clever. It's as if they forgot that President is not a life appointment. Maybe Trump has them confused about that.

I think it's nothing different than "let's go back to the old playbook." Wild conspiracies fired up the audience for these guys, which in turn juiced turnout for the election. And last time the idea that a significant portion of Trumpies are out-and-out nutcases never really gained traction in the general public, so they still see it as a net gain. -

This is not an issue that will go away. You take a population with a significant percentage of unvaccinated people (measles) and/or who have been smuggled through Central America and Mexico in crowded conditions (tuberculosis), this is bound to happen. If you want to immigrate legally to the USA you have to be examined by a "civil surgeon" (doctor), including a TB test, with chest X-ray if positive, and a full course of treatment if any chest infiltration. You also need to show that you are current on all normal vaccines. Illegally? No check at all. At a minimum we need detention with a physical exam prior to releasing anyone, and that's the minimum. -

Israel and Iran

An outrageous attack. The best defense: we were grossly negligent. The worst scenario: we knew what they were and we killed them anyway. Netanyahu will likely understand just one thing: no more arms or funding. -

Ladies and gentlemen and various flavors of non-binary persons, I present to you some of the peaceful patriot "hostages." Example (but read the whole linked article - gunshots fired, flash-bangs thrown, others charged later with conspiring to kill FBI agents ... and all of the "low class" description accurately given them by Trump himself) Jacob Lang — who can be seen on video hitting law enforcement officers with a baseball bat and riot shield — faces multiple charges of assaulting law enforcement officers, as well as felony charges of civil disorder and obstruction of an official proceeding. He was arrested in January 2021.“I was the leader of Liberty today,” Lang wrote on Facebook after the riot, wrongly tagging himself at the White House. “Arrest me. You are on the wrong side of history.” He said the day after the attack that it was “war” at the Capitol, not a mere protest.

I will submit to the 12 step program to ensure that never happens again. -

Is that one of the "can you spot the trans person" photos, erroneously posted here? Because I think I just spotted one. -
Convicted felon Donald Trump lies

Oops. Cross posted it in 5 threads. Night shift lab tech got time on his hands. -
America First is now Russia First

Yep. Posted the same incredibly unamusing Photoshop tweet in at least 4 threads. -
So let's make sure I understand the theory here. Biden retained classified documents in violation of law, but he shouldn't be charged because that is consistent with him being a well-meaning, elderly man with memory issues. Trump also retained classified documents in violation of law, and he too shouldn't have been charged because that was consistent with him being a well-meaning, elderly man with memory issues. It's a tie! (You can't have it both ways)

Idiot never saw a secured facility? This actually surprised him? Oh, wait a minute, now I understand. He previously tweeted that Sidney Powell should indeed "release the Kraken." And also this: "I love Trump." https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/ervin-lee-bolling-fbi-gate-crash-suspect-trump-qanon-1234998775/ Hey, look at me! I found QAnon!! (Again)

I always wonder: how do these two-bit academics become folk heroes to the left or the right? Left: remember that "white fragility" lady who was everywhere for a while? Robin DiAngelo. Ph.D. from Seattle University (what?). Briefly taught at Westfield State University (where?). Then started lecturing as a self-appointed expert on racism and "white fragility." She's made a mint. Meanwhile, the real scholars who haven't hit on a hot button toil away in obscurity at real universities. Right: James Lindsay. His wiki says he has a Ph.D. in math from the University of Tennessee, which I take it is not amongst the first 100 (500?) choices of the budding academic mathematician. While working as a massage therapist (I am not making this up, although it is apparently scrubbed from his wiki by his minions as soon as it is added), he collaborates with a couple other slightly more successful academics on a series of hoax academic papers. It was a good joke, inspired by a much better joke two decades earlier by a real academic physicist, Alan Sokal. Fun. They made their point - academic journals in the social sciences are a joke, existing for the sole purpose of resume padding. But then a weird thing happened: he became a right-wing media hero. Why? Because he pilloried academia? He no longer has to try to get a job as an academic. He probably doesn't need to massage anything other than NC BIlls' little weiner these days. They love him. Quote every pointless thing he tweets. Eat up his "cultural criticism" without even reaching for the massage oil to help it go down. And that's how a "public intellectual" is created these days. Much like how any influencer is created: click-bait.

I think he means that some of those Russians coming across the SW border (don't be fooled, there are a lot) are going to get jobs at Los Alamos and transfer our most advanced technology to Putin. Because after all, he is a very strong leader and there's no reason he shouldn't be our friend. [Stupid, idiotic comments by some failed academic]
