bingo. their strategy was the wrong one...trying to show trump as more "energetic/forceful" blew up in their face big time.

whoever is running his campaign must have been running the mccain/palin disaster as well

President retweeted Qanon conspiracy suggesting Obama and Biden killed Seal Team 6... 

Thankfully it was removed, but unfortunately many Qanon supporters will see this as acknowledgement of the truth from the President and that he was forced to take down by the deep state. 

Here's the "CIA whistleblower" for what it's worth.

New York Post has a pretty big story regarding that crazy irrepressible Hunter Biden and his dad, Ol' Joe.

https://nypost.com/2020/10/14/email-reveals-how-hunter-biden-introduced-ukrainian-biz-man-to-dad/

 

Which won't matter to nearly any voter one way or the other - you either think the Biden family did bad things or you don't.

 

What is of more interest, to me anyway, is that Facebook and Twitter - neither of which do I personally participate in - have either restricted (FB) or prohibited (Twitter) the sharing of this story since in Twitter's words, "It might be harmful."

To whom?

And why do they make that determination?

But proven to be false Russia, Russia, Russia/pee tape/FBI/CIA/we've got him now stories for 3+ years were just fine.

Sure seems to make the case of those companies being in the news/publishing realm and not simply an IT method.

If they've restricted the story...sounds like they are making editorial decisions and have therefore decided to be a publisher, and not a platform.

I seem to remember Zuckerberg arguing the opposite in front of congress.

So the FBI has had his hard drive for almost a year, and this is what comes out of it?  Dude introduced his business partner to his dad and some raunchy videos of himself on his hard drive?  Lock this dude up!

Why is it that Hilary, Obama, Biden and his son are all guilty of crimes, and yet with control of the executive, judicial and the majority of the legislative over the last 4 years you haven't been able to scrape together indictments against these criminals?  Yet in the meantime almost all of Trump's inner circle have had charges brought against them for one reason or another?  Do you really think there is an all-powerful deep state cabal protecting these people?  If they are so powerful why is the democratic party so weak all the time?  None of this makes any sense old man.

[brickhistory]

Back in the day, the networks used to run this short educational cartoon-like public service announcements on things like how a bill became a law, what a conjuction is and how it's used in a sentence, and how reading is fundamental, a RIF, as it were.

 

 

I miss those...

Another NY Post news story today about Hunter Biden's shenanigans and again Twitter outright blocks it, bans those that try to comment on it/share it, etc.  To include the WH Press Secretary, the GOP Senate's account, as well as numerous others.

 

Because the information came from a "leak." (Actually, the laptop was abandoned at a repair place and never picked up.  Became the owner's per law).

 

But the leaking, as just one example, of Trump's taxes was fair game.

It's good to have wingmen.

[bfargin]

Some interesting thoughts on current events and the actual battle for the soul of our country.

[drewpey]

"the democratic party has been taken over by it's radical wing"

lol...ok.  The "radicals" were so successful in their "takeover" they voted in the most milquetoast old white dude they had available to them.  I get you guys are terrified of the Democrats winning, but you are going a little overboard with the hyperbole.  If Sanders was up there...sure you could start howling, but neither of these two candidates are far from mainstream politics.  In fact any "radical" ideas they have are likely just to motivate younger voters and are less likely to be fulfilled.

Republicans have continually said over the last 4 years that "the president has no effect on 99% of peoples' daily lives" I'm inclined to parrot that back to you.

The scary old man might tax the rich, alleviate student debt, and give people healthcare, but hardly anything "radical".

At this pace I don't think Hunter Biden is going to win this presidential election thing.

Either way I'm going to hold judgement on what the Feds say on the email.  Initial look it appears to be fake news, not to mention the story surrounding it being "found".  Imagine that.

I won't nitpick, but I will disagree with you on something substantive - "alleviating" student debt is absolutely, and wildly radical.

You're doing it wrong

 

According to noted self-defense expert, Uncle Joe, that if the firing of your shotgun in the air doesn't ward off an attackerrr, all you have to do is shot him/her/it in the leg.

That center-mass thing is all wrong.

I think someone should notify the Geneva Convention that we can now maim as it's more "peaceful."

 

That's the kind of bold, inspired thinking I believe we all have been searching for.

It won't be cheap, so maybe it is radical, and who will pay for these things?

[slackline]

You know, we all recognize that our infrastructure needs a major overhaul, healthcare sucks, etc... People ask how to pay for it, but no one's willing to fork out another dime in taxes. "Fix my problems, just do it without my money" is the mantra. Republicans have done such a bangup job fixing these things so far, how do you recommend we do it without tax raises? D's or R's are unwilling to get rid of waste in spending, so what's the alternative? Honest question from a hater of both parties. I'd be willing to pay a higher tax to fix our country, but again, not guarantee it also won't get wasted...

Private investment and then let the private sector handle it as was intended with the way our country runs; with limited and reasonable oversight.  Why do (both sides) always run to the government for their problems? I don’t want crackpots like Bernie/Biden or illiterates like Occasional Cortex responsible for any more of my money than I already give for them to mishandle.  Also, as much as I love Trump, I don’t want him having too much power and have not appreciated many of his executive orders.
