The Frankish Reich

You just don't have any sense of humor. I can't explain a joke.

That's kind of how it works. It would be mean if I made fun of once-promising biologists whose career fizzled. But if you do that? Hilarious self-deprecating humor! George Lopez can make fun of Mexicans. Not sure if he can make fun of Puerto Ricans though. But he can definitely joke about guys with kidney failure who get their wife's kidney and then promptly divorce her, which is always funny. Comedy = Tragedy + Time.

Please. As for Bezos: Am I alone in thinking that this trillionaire (well, he would've been but for an ill-timed affair and divorce) will restore our faith in the news media?

Not bad!

The incredibly tight-lipped Steve Bannon!

Sloppy Steve! Remember the first Trump White House book? Fire and Fury. Bannon was the primary source. Trump thought he was a traitor.

So sorry that you are then forced - FORCED - to read my posts. Learn how to ignore. It's easy! Like selling bioscience supplies.

It's a stupid thing our friend NCBillsFan, a/k/a Deranged Rhino's Ghost, thinks is hilarious. It comes from me pointing out the QAnon accent in many of his posts (the old Deranged Rhino devoted 600+ pages to his "QAnon Analysis"), hence Finding QAnon, then Finding. Oh, he claims to "ignore" me, so one might ask why he keeps mentioning me. Now you know.

I take it you're not a Kill Tony fan? Trump says Barron tells him who the hot comics are. Maybe that explains it.

Oh, it was good. You're hurting, buddy. I'll lay off for now. Don't want that Colonial Penn to kick in just yet.

Translation: 34 million views, but somehow no one can find it. Wow.

Is the OP's title just a polite way of saying they don't pull out and they breed like minks? [Hey, that's FUNNY if you like that kind of humor!]

Greenwald, yes, although he has Hillary/Obama Derangement Syndrome now. Not sure what The Intercept is since he left. The others are commenters, not reporters. I actually want a good, responsible, fact-checking, right-leaning news source. The WSJ is still good, but obviously that's the old right wing. Fox News/Melugin actually did a good job reporting on the border fiasco, so they have the capability but lack the desire to be a serious news organization. Most of the Twitter monkeys pasted here all the time are just right wing hot take machines.

I've already said I would be betting on Trump to win. But ... Polymarket is hot garbage. It's the Puerto Rico of prediction markets. We've seen it manipulated in real time by one whale who didn't appear to be in it for the money. Someday, maybe. Not now.

I'm saying it's coming. When I came to Colorado 20 some years ago, it was your classic battleground state. Now it's fully blue. Texas is seeing the same kind of in-migration pattern. People bring their politics with them. Tell it like it is ... it's the word Trump used to describe a lot of other countries.

Old Conspiracy Brain embarrassed to admit he doesn’t know how to do a simple internet search. Alternatively, I could hook you up with Spotify. Maybe they have a senior rate. Just send me your credit card number, 3 digit code, and expiration date. Free Colonial Penn life insurance to the first 50 responses!

Clumsy YouTube issue? Who cares? Google: YouTube Rogan Trump. Not rocket science. Not a conspiracy.

Hiding in plain sight, it was! .02 seconds away on the world’s dominant search engine.

“The suit centered on the state law that allowsofficials to count mail ballots postmarked with a date that “cannot be determined” and received within the three days following Election Day. It argued that counting non-postmarked mail ballots — as suggested by the Nevada Secretary of State’s Office in a May memo to county clerks — was a misreading of the law” Basic statutory interpretation case.

What are those “independent platforms” that are doing actual reporting? I don’t mean insta comments on some news item. I mean actually following leads to determine what is true and what is false. Surely Elon Musk can afford to start an alternative real newspaper with normal journalistic standards. Why doesn’t he?

Deport them! It’s not like they’re citizens or anything.

https://www.wxxinews.org/local-news/2024-10-25/report-ties-former-rochester-real-estate-investor-to-black-insurrectionist-social-media-account The AP traced the account to Palmer based on posts made by Black Insurrectionist that included biographical details about living in upstate New York, a screenname and an email address. Those details cross-referenced with information available online that the AP tracked down with assistance from Gisela Pérez de Acha, an open source reporting specialist for the Human Rights Center at University of California, Berkley. A video posted in March by Black Insurrectionist shows a computer screen displaying the docket of Trump's election case in the Georgia. His initials "JP" are visible in an icon on the web browser's toolbar. And Palmer's email address can be seen in the corner of the screen, indicating that he used it to log into the state's online court system. The email address is linked to a phone number, according to opensource data provider Osint.Industries, that is listed for Palmer in New York court records. The same email is also linked to a Skype account with the username "jg palmrt," according to the opensource data provider Epieos. Palmer's middle initial is "G." Palmer also used similar iterations of the email address in the past, according to court records. Duped by a criminal with a history of drug abuse. Not even a clever one. One doing the dirty work of the campaign, that picked up on "Black [White] Insurrectionist's bs stories.

The Rochester guy posted it on Twitter/X. How do we know that? Because some of that account's other posts included a photo of his screen with his email address visible. Yeah. Smart guy! Millions fell for it. Now that we know who he is, why don't you ask him where he got the info from?

I realized that after the last election. I just assumed Trump was dumb enough to think that his extremely unrepresentative sample of the United States electorate - the people who attend his rallies - reflected overall preferences. But surely his better educated supporters knew better, right? Well, no. No they don't. The Literary Digest fallacy lives! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Literary_Digest#:~:text=The magazine gained notoriety when,Democratic incumbent President Franklin D.

I know. Call me Tariff Man! [technical correction: a tariff is actually the schedule of customs duties, not the duty itself]
