  1. btw, who is responsible for "Realclear investigation"? One might assume it's part of realclear politics. Nope, it's Julie Kelly. not misleading at all... https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/authors/julie_kelly/
  2. https://www.fbi.gov/news/press-releases/fbi-releases-2023-crime-in-the-nation-statistics here are the latest official FBI numbers (9/24). Interesting your cited article does not show a comparison of numbers between the years, revised or not). Here's the latest 2022 numbers: https://www.fbi.gov/news/press-releases/fbi-releases-2022-crime-in-the-nation-statistics
  3. Dude, the first article I posted cited FBI numbers. This one links FBI numbers as well as other sources (The FBI numbers are local law enforcement numbers collated and summarized). Not surprising that you didn't read the first link (and very likely won't read this): https://www.factcheck.org/2024/05/trumps-bogus-attack-on-fbi-crime-statistics/. You are either unwilling or unable to analyze the available data (or both). unsurprisingly, your "argument" is very similar to trump's: Time National Politics Reporter Eric Cortellessa, April 12: Violent crime is going down throughout the country. There was a 6% drop in— Trump: I don’t believe it. Cortellessa: You don’t believe that? Trump: Yeah, they’re fake numbers. Cortellessa: You think so? Trump: Well it came out last night. The FBI gave fake numbers. Cortellessa: I didn’t see that, but the FBI said that there was a 13% drop [in homicides] in 2023. Trump: I don’t believe it. No, it’s a lie. It’s fake news. Cortellessa: Sir, these numbers are collected by state and local police departments across the country. Most of them support you. Are they wrong? Trump: Yeah. Last night. Well, maybe, maybe not. The FBI fudged the numbers and other people fudged numbers. There is no way that crime went down over the last year. There’s no way because you have migrant crime. Are they adding migrant crime? Or do they consider that a different form of crime? Cortellessa: So these local police departments are wrong? Trump: I don’t believe it’s from the local police. What I saw was the FBI was giving false numbers. There wasn't any data nor research available perhaps purposefully. We could only judge on what we observed.
  4. I'm not wrong and could link more data but you'd just reply that it's untrue with a wave of your hand and nothing to back up your contention...it's what MAGAs do. I need a translation. my digital language translator doesn't understand either No. thoughtful liberals look at data and real research with an objective eye. If the data data is questioned or questionable, thoughtful people investigate further, look at other sources, look at methodology, look at sample size etc. In effect, analyze it.
  5. Yes, we know. Despite what orange fascist says, we don't live in a vacuum. We rely on the rest of the world for many things. But please continue. For the few who don't already know, we get a glimpse inside the "thinking"{ of the typical MAGA.
  6. uh huh. I see inflation. I also know that its origin was covid and the huge stimulus that was spent to keep the economy afloat. I also know that we did much better, with a lower inflation rate, than most countries in the world. There is no truth! Facts don't exist! I'm a MAGA!!!! But whatever trump says is true except when obvious lies are "misinterpreted".
  7. of course. you don't believe data that doesn't align with your narrative but believe proven serial liar trump. wtf is wrong with you?
  8. yes, we know. Who needs data? Who needs facts? MAGA!!! We just say it 3 times and it becomes true...at least in OUR minds.
  9. authoritarian communist to be more exact. in fairness, tommy eyerolls is likely not into ideology, like most MAGAs.. It's about making sure government benefits them and not groups they don't approve of.
  10. English please. Stimy funds? corporatist economy? It's called capitalism. Are you a closet socialist?
  11. so many lies. let's just look at crime: https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2024/apr/03/nancy-mace/has-crime-skyrocketed-under-joe-biden-not-exactly/ Why do you repeatedly bear false witness B man?
  12. https://www.thedailybeast.com/gop-official-for-kamala-predicts-silent-majority-will-win real Republicans get it: "He just cannot be in the Oval Office again,” former Rep. Barbara Comstock (R-VA) told the Daily Beast Tuesday night during her drive up to the Keystone State for the event. And she predicted: Harris will prevail. “I think there’s a silent majority,” she said. “I think there’s a silent group of women who will crawl over broken glass to vote against Trump and who will quietly vote for Harris.”
  13. Reality: https://www.revolt.tv/article/are-black-people-the-majority-of-those-on-welfare The majority of recipients were white (43 percent), followed by Hispanic (26 percent), and Black (23 percent). These figures fall in line with population demographics and debunk the misconception that welfare programs are predominantly associated with the Black community. https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/07/19/what-the-data-says-about-food-stamps-in-the-u-s/ to be fair, safety net programs are vital, especially to avoid riots. and civil unrest. And there are certainly deserving/needy people in every racial group.. But when I hear complaints about the programs, it's often directed at non whites. Let's be fair in our assessment and assignment of blame.
  14. they only account for a low percentage of white trash and that percentage keeps rising relentlessly.
  15. imagine if they get control of the federal reserve and treasury. we had a preview with covid money. 2nd time will be worse.
  16. nah, that'd be maga "doc". but nice actual conspiracy among you trumpers....
  17. uh huh. play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Yours is being associated with nazis. i'm sure you're proud. Mary Trump, lesbian niece to Donald was there. She posted the vid for all to see. Good on her.
  18. looks like our resident maga's got the memo from the trump campaign: call it a false flag and don't directly condemn nazis https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-responds-swastika-flags-flown-during-boat-parade-1969075 In a statement to Newsweek, the Anti-Defamation League said: "OBS is a small neo-Nazi network primarily based in Florida that distributes propaganda and holds in-person demonstrations to spread their white supremacist ideology. OBS was formed in early 2023 by long time affiliates of Florida's overlapping white supremacist network." The advocacy group StopAntisemitism wrote on X, formerly Twitter, that one of the people on the boat was "known antisemite Jon Minadeo II." It added that other people present were "his cronies from the GDL (Goyim Defense League)," which the Southern Poverty Law Center classified as a neo-Nazi group. Minadeo has a history of neo-Nazi-related stunts, including being arrested in Poland after sharing far-right propaganda at the gates of Auschwitz.
  19. same pathetic video of a single boat splashing a boatful of nazis at a trump rally. They remained...there should be plenty of other videos of hecklers surrounding them and telling them they are unwelcome. where are they? only one anti nazi boater there?
  20. and not one maga here has called him out....shared beliefs, at least in part, are presumed. It's a metaphor for the Nazi boat on parade.
  21. Intellectual dishonesty, insincerity, unapologetic, untrustworthiness: a few of the defining characteristics of MAGA scum that you possess. and you drink cheap, nasty swill.
  22. there is a poster here who espouses Nazi principles in regard to legal immigrants. You've never told him that.
  23. I will. what's weird is that only one MAGA here has publicly agreed that Nazis are scum. And several pretend they don't exist or that the losers in trump's boat brigade were actors. Some showed their faces. No doubt the FBI knows who they are as they should. who knows. There might be some neo nazis in this board...
  24. The medical community called it AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) and later HIV to acknowledge its viral origin.
  25. Of course you are. Do you believe Nazis are scum? Does nazi rhetoric have a proper place in American politics?
