He was always partly right about this but very wrong to offer it as an alternative to climate change. Both are factors: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-46183690.amp But in any event the issue of forest management doesn’t really apply to the current Palisades fire.

Yes but not in this area. There have been fires in the past but nothing like this. And in this case it’s based on severe drought and impossibly strong winds, not the items you chose to highlight.

I’m sorry you feel this way. Not my intent to ever be dishonest or come across that way. I don’t expect you or most people here to agree with my views but I do value my integrity.

Is that the same woman? I had no idea.

Yeah it’s a crapshoot. Apparently some houses in the neighborhood have already been lost (that’s what we’re hearing, no confirmation) but the embers jump from house to house burning down some and completely skipping others.

Nothing like this has ever happened before in this area. Never been any fire close to this bad.

My FIL and his wife live in Sunset Mesa, just above the Getty Villa on PCH near Sunset Blvd. They were safely evacuated several hours ago, thankfully. Now we’re all waiting to learn if their house survives. We won’t know for some time….

I would also note that there is no black celebrity that can avoid the DEI label in this forum.

lol upset? I had no idea who she was an hour ago. Just think it’s funny that in this instance you seem to be relying on MSM and the wisdom of the Justice Department for once.

1. When you write “every news outlet”, you’re referring to the MSM right? I thought they only report stuff that’s bad for conservatives. 2. Federal lawsuit? I thought only conservatives get prosecuted by the Justice Department. Thats what I been told here over and over.

You won’t believe me but I had to look up who Sunny was. I don’t watch the View. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an episode.

No I really don’t. But you should. Some of the evidence wasn’t adequately protected, which is not the same as deliberately destroyed. There was no effort to destroy anything, no secret conspiracy, nothing hidden. It was all out there, you just didn’t like what you heard. For once can’t you get your head out of your a$$? The January 6 committee was, if anything, redundant because anyone watching that day already knows what happened: a group of MAGA idiots, egged on by Trump, stormed the Capitol, physically attacked police, caused several deaths and more injuries. Thats all. No conspiracies, no FBI, no Antifa, none of that crap. Just a bunch of crazy idiots who are about to be pardoned, which is pretty shameful. Stop defending them.

Wouldn’t “Gulf of ‘Murica” be better?

Sigh. Never happened: https://www.factcheck.org/2024/10/meme-rehashes-old-false-claim-that-j6-committee-destroyed-evidence/ Once again, you guys are being duped, you’re believing false info. And this is the point. You reject the truth when it is reported and believe in this crap. And that is a huge threat to this country.

I want to rename you Hardcore Idiot.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2025/01/07/trump-greenland-panama-canal-canada-military-economic-force/77511388007/ when asked if he would rule out military force to acquire Greenland Trump said “No I won’t commit to that. It may be that we have to do something” There you go.

Denmark won’t sell, Trump says he might use military force to make it happen. Looks like we may be going to war with Copenhagen.

Also wants to rename Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America.

I don’t seek to suppress discussion. I just don’t think it’s a reasonable topic because there’s no evidence that Antifa or the FBI were involved. If you want to discuss it and speculate about it go ahead. I’m not interested because I regard it as wholly fabricated. And the MSM absolutely shouldn’t be talking about it because there are no facts to talk about. On a side note I didn’t regard the 1/6 Commission as a mockery of anything. I thought they did an admirable, reasonable job. But there’s always the possibility that I’m missing something.

I think you’re completely wrong. But that’s OK; at least we have clarified where we djsagree in this instance.

Well you wrote strength earlier. But now I’m too stupid? Which is it?

Tree came down a few weeks ago but my Harris/Walz sign is still up!

I don’t think it’s reasonable to question the outcome of the 2020 election. I don’t think it’s reasonable to speculate on the supposed involvement of Antifa and the FBI in the Jan 6 riot. In both cases many conservatives rejected the truthful MSM reporting and chose to believe in pure fabrications. Some continue to do so. To me this is evidence of the danger of not having news sources that are generally accepted by most people. Which is why I raised them as examples. I didn’t raise Covid because that’s a more complex subject and the reporting from the MSM was nowhere as firm as you are implying. I do think that in that case it’s perfectly reasonable to question government actions and restrictions and directions given, especially because they were often contradictory. I don’t believe the MSM did a poor job in reporting different points of view.

Ah I get it now. It’s not a question of accuracy; I simply don’t have the inner strength to question the media. Good to know.
