Blue Horseshoe

As former WH Press Secretary Dana Perino points out - The public reaction to the activist left leaning partisan MSM has been lackluster. I'll be the first to say that Fox News is also heavily slanted and cooked to the bias and moods of the Murdochs and their corporate cronies as well. The persistent attacks on Trump for 8 years straight has worn the American public down. There is so much mistrust in the corporate media that a lot of people won't pay attention even though the documents case is actually very strong AGAINST Trump. There should be no way that Trump can dance around that case, but how many independents, undecideds and moderates still have vigor for any of this? Trump's best defense, in the most pathetic and ironic way possible, was the radical leftist narrative itself. Look at all the radicals and establishment cronies who needed the spotlight. Fauci, Maddow, Cuomo, Lemon, Schiff, Newsom, Whitmer, AOC and the list goes on and on and on. They needed to support their "brand" and their fundraising and their public profile in the national daily media cycle. But inch by inch and bit by bit, it turned into the "wall" that Trump was always begging to be built. A wall around him that works like an iron clad defense. This is almost like a Kurosawa film, where the village clown survives to the very end while everyone else destroys each other. When the public is fat and happy, no one really cares what happens in the government. But Team Blue had to openly declare war on the working class, parents, actual "women", Asians, Hispanics/Latinos, the military, law enforcement, small business owners and inflicted so much chaos that many of those people stopped remaining low information voters. You have to be a total village idiot to attack the every day working class and their children and then expect them to buy in completely with whatever the activist MSM spouts out on a daily basis. You can't punish people at the gas pump and grocery store and at schools then remove public safety and expect them to be docile and compliant. Trump is an imbecile. He's a toxic exhausting worthless gutless narcissist. He's funny sometimes, has a little charisma, and understands how to handle a big crowd. He's not without a few talents. But he's a complete clown. Do you know why he's survived so far? Because while he's a stupid clown, he's stuck in a big town full of village idiots. And in comparison, he looks almost useful in that light. If your political Party and it's power base can't put down a mouth breather like Donald Trump, whose fault is that exactly? How hard do you have to fail as a Party that Trump is still a legitimate contender after all this endless madness? This is NOT a defense of Trump. It's a simple explanation as to why he's still "rent free" in so many heads today. At least the village clown can juggle. The endless parade of village idiots however are both useless and boring. How sad and tragic is that?

The easiest way to defeat someone like Trump is to ignore him. The DNC, Team Blue, Obama/ Biden regime, establishment Democrats and the rest were too arrogant to do that from the beginning. Mark Burnett ran the greatest shadow campaign in recorded American political history. Trump did not have the money, not even close, to match the Clinton fundraising machine. The only saving grace was "unpaid media coverage" Trump hate from the activist MSM, which dominated the entire country non stop, was the best advertising possible for his chances at election. Trump feeds off of other people's hate for him. He lives for it. It's a huge turn on for him. He'd likely wither away and perish without it. Donald J Trump is a ridiculous idiot clown. This is all one big game to him. The reason he's survived this long is other people keep playing HIS GAME and not their own. Are you talking about him again? Is he "rent free" in your head? Then he's "won" This is the basic narcissists playbook. Team Blue will play along because hating Trump makes it easier to avoid having to talk about affordable housing for the working class, or how to improve K-12 education, or how to best prepare for future war with China, or everything wrong with the Citizens United ruling, etc, etc.

7-Eleven workers beat would-be robber with stick until suspect starts crying ....two 7-Eleven employees in California who turned the tables against a man who was on the verge of stealing dozens of boxes of cigarettes from the store.....the city of Stockton displayed over the post, showed a man with his head and face covered in a blue t-shirt grabbing a trash can and then stuffing it with boxes of tobacco products.....The suspect continues to stuff the trash can while cussing people out and then threatening to shoot the workers.

If you don't learn from history, you will inevitably begin to repeat the worst mistakes made from previous generations. The "proscriptions" under Octavian, Antony and Lepidus seemed practical and "politically expedient" at the time and place. But the echoes of it seeped deep into the downfall of the entire Republic in the future. What happens if your children and the people you love no longer fit the right "narrative" one day? What happens if they fail the kind of sweeping "purity tests" being rolled out right now? What happens if it becomes "politically expedient" to line up your children against a wall for "wrong think" in the future? Don't see Trump as just a pathetic narcissistic grifter idiot. Who only got his station in life from his father's success. Also see him, in principle, as an American citizen. Despise Trump the individual if you wish. But if you fail to recognize his status as an actual American citizen, you won't hear the jack boots one day as they kick in your door and put bags over the heads of everyone you've ever loved. Don't believe me? Open a history book sometime. In any language. At any time. The stories are all the same when it comes to pure tyranny. Trump is a useless clown. But the mobilization of nearly the entire government apparatus against him is an open attack on freedom. All freedom. If that doesn't trouble you, then you don't realize you are even less safe from "proscription" than The Big Cheeto himself.

Indicting Trump for 'knowingly false statements' about election sets US on dangerous path ....Prosecutors will seek to criminalize false political claims. To bag Trump, they will have to bulldoze through the First Amendment and a line of Supreme Court cases.....Smith and his team have made history in the worst way by attempting to fully criminalize disinformation by seeking the incarceration for a politician on false claims made during and after an election.....The hatred for Trump is so all-encompassing that legal experts on the political left have ignored the chilling implications of this indictment. This complaint is based largely on statements that are protected under the First Amendment. It would eviscerate free speech and could allow the government to arrest those who are accused of spreading disinformation in elections.... ....Special counsel Jack Smith speaks on Aug. 1, 2023, about the indictment against former President Donald Trump on conspiring to steal the 2020 election from President Joe Biden, including the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.....Smith is now showing the same abandon in pursuing Trump, including detailing his speech on Jan. 6, 2021, before the riot while omitting the line where Trump told his supporters to go to the U.S. Capitol to "peacefully" protest the certification....While the indictment acknowledges that candidates are allowed to make false statements, Smith proceeded to charge Trump for making "knowingly false statements....." .....On the election claims, Smith declares that Trump "knew that they were false" because he was "notified repeatedly that his claims were untrue." The problem is that Trump had lawyers and others telling him that the claims were true. Smith is indicting Trump for believing his lawyers over his other advisers. Trump was wrong about 2020 election, but that doesn't mean he broke the law .....I criticized Trump's Jan. 6 speech while he was still giving it and wrote that his theory on the election and the certification challenge was unfounded. However, that does not make it a crime.... ....Let's acknowledge that Trump was wrong. The election wasn't stolen. He lost, and Joe Biden won....But how do you prove legally that Trump truly didn't believe his false claims? And even if you can prove that Trump lied, how do you legally distinguish his falsehoods from the lies other political leaders have told over the years? When, in politics, does making a false statement cross the line into criminal behavior? Those are questions Smith and his team must answer in court, and ones that Trump's defense team is likely to raise....Instead, Smith will seek to criminalize false political claims. To bag Trump, he will have to bulldoze through the First Amendment and a line of Supreme Court cases. That's why this latest indictment of Trump isn't just wrong. It is reckless.... https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2023/08/02/trump-indictment-2020-election-jan-6-not-legally-sound/70509753007/ ******* "Again, there's no excuse for his positions. There's no excuse for what he said. There's no excuse for anybody to support racism. There's no place for it in our league, but there's a very, very, very slippery slope.....But regardless of your background, regardless of the history they have, if we're taking something somebody said in their home and we're trying to turn it into something that leads to you being forced to divest property in any way, shape or form, that's not the United States of America. I don't want to be part of that.....You don't; there's no law against stupid....I'm the one guy who says don't force the stupid people to be quiet. I want to know who the morons are." - Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban on Donald Sterling. Trump is an idiot. A total imbecile. But you can't just make up the law as you go a long. And Jack Smith can't just make up the law in the way he wants or just the way that Obama wants it done. You don't stop someone like Trump by subverting the actual principles of law in this country. No matter how repugnant most people find Trump. You stop Trump with "More Democracy" Go win lots of elections and get the majorities you need to change the laws and load SCOTUS with your own people without court packing, to criminalize the things Trump has done through the established formal legal processes in this country. You win lots of elections by helping the basic material needs of every day working class Americans. Make their lives better and give their children hope and a future, so they want to come out and vote for you. You don't defend actual democracy by gaming the system as much as possible with the weak "justification" that this is all needed to put down Trump for good. I find Trump to be totally exhausting and want him out of professional politics. But without process, real democratic processes at work, then our Republic will fall. And if it falls, all your children will inherit what exactly? One day Trump will be gone. One way or another. But the legacy of this endless persecution, whether some of it might even be justified legally, will echo against actual freedom for generations to come.

New poll shows how Biden’s coalition has frayed since 2020 ....The new New York Times/Siena poll shows Biden underperforming among young voters, Blacks, Latinos and independents compared to his last election.....In 2020, it took the entire Democratic coalition — women, Black voters, Latinos, independents and disaffected Republicans — plus a global pandemic for Joe Biden to defeat then-President Donald Trump and remove him from office....But 15 months until Election Day 2024, a new poll shows the coalition that carried Biden to victory has frayed in a hypothetical Biden-versus-Trump rematch... ....Overall, the new national New York Times/Siena College poll finds Biden and Trump tied at 43% among registered voters. A combined 14% say they support a different candidate, wouldn’t vote or refused to answer.....Yet it’s the crosstabs breaking down those numbers that reveal Biden’s erosion from 2020, when he won the national popular vote by 4.5 percentage points and the Electoral College 306-232......In the Times/Siena poll, Biden leads Trump by 10 points among voters ages 18-29, when the 2020 exit poll him with a 24-point advantage among this demographic. He’s up 12 points among women, when it was 15 points in 2020. He’s ahead by 59 points among Black voters, when it was 75 points in his last election. He’s up 3 points among Latinos, down from 33 points in the 2020 results, and he’s ahead by 5 points among independents, when it was 13 points in 2020.... https://www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-press/meetthepressblog/new-poll-shows-bidens-coalition-frayed-2020-rcna97572

Barack Obama Is Also Scared Sh*tless That Donald Trump Could Win Another Term: Report .....In a normal society, a former president—let’s call him Donald Trump—who’s been indicted three times in under four months, on charges ranging from obstruction of justice to conspiracy to defraud the United States, would have absolutely no chance of ever being president again. It straight up would not be a scenario anyone would have to even contemplate; even if this individual were not in prison, the idea that they would be able to run for and win higher office once more would not compute..... .....But unfortunately, we don’t live in a normal society; instead, we live in a place in which millions of people not only still support Donald Trump, but grow fonder of him with every new criminal charge. Which means that, despite the aforementioned indictments, the twice-impeached, thrice-indicted ex-president is dominating every other candidate for the Republican nomination, and currently looks to be the most likely GOP nominee in the 2024 general election. That, of course, scares the sh*t out of a lot of people—including, apparently, one Barack Obama. Whose fear, it has to be said, is extremely unsettling! .....The Washington Post reports that during a private lunch with Joe Biden in late June, the 44th president “voiced concern about Donald Trump’s political strengths—including an intensely loyal following, a Trump-friendly conservative media ecosystem, and a polarized country—underlining his worry that Trump could be a more formidable candidate than many Democrats realize.” According to people familiar with the conversation, “Obama made it clear his concerns were not about Biden’s political abilities, but rather a recognition of Trump’s iron grip on the Republican Party.....” https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2023/08/barack-obama-is-also-scared-sh*tless-that-donald-trump-could-win-another-term-report

Devon Archer torpedoes Biden camp's defense of controversial dinner with Burisma exec .....Hunter Biden's ex-business partner confirmed during his recent closed-door interview with the House Oversight Committee that then-Vice President Joe Biden was at the infamous spring 2015 dinner with son Hunter's foreign business associates, despite the Biden campaign repeatedly saying Biden was never there.....Devon Archer told investigators that the elder Biden "had dinner" with him and several others, including "Vadym P. from Burisma." When Biden arrived, Archer said Biden "shook everybody's hand" and joined their conversation.... ....In 2020, the New York Post reported an explosive story about Hunter Biden introducing his then-vice president father to a top executive at Ukrainian energy firm Burisma, where Hunter had served on its board and reportedly collected more than $50,000 per month....The story set off a firestorm and rejections from Biden's close aides. Andrew Bates, who is now a White House spokesperson but at the time worked on the communication team of Biden's 2020 campaign, roundly denied the meeting ever happened...Likewise, in that same Politico article, which centered around Biden's campaign "punching back" against the Post's story, other top Biden advisers flatly rejected that Biden met the Burisma executive. Michael Carpenter, who worked for Biden during the alleged encounter and was being paid more $200,000 at the Penn Biden Center, chalked it up as a Russian disinformation campaign....."This is a Russian disinformation operation," said Carpenter, who now acts as the U.S. permanent representative to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe. "I'm very comfortable saying that...." ....The Washington Post also published a fact-check piece in 2021 that referenced pushback from an unnamed "campaign spokesman for Joe Biden" and "officials who worked for [Biden]." It is unclear whether this spokesperson was also Bates. "A campaign spokesman for Joe Biden had said a review of Biden’s schedule for that day found no record of any such meeting. Officials who worked for him in 2015 also told The Fact Checker that no such meeting took place," the Washington Post piece reported....But Archer, a longtime Hunter Biden business partner and friend, contradicted those claims and said that then-Vice President Biden was in attendance and was part of the dinner. Fox News Digital obtained the more than 140-page transcript of Archer's interview before the House Oversight Committee on Monday, which transpired behind closed doors....The transcript shows that investigators had asked Archer about the dinner mentioned in the New York Post report, which happened at Washington, D.C.'s, upscale restaurant Cafe Milano in 2015. The story revolved around an April 2015 email from Burisma board adviser Vadym Pozharskyi, who had written to Hunter Biden the day after the dinner to thank him for inviting him to the nation's capital and allowing him to meet his father and spend "some time together...." https://www.foxnews.com/politics/devon-archer-torpedoes-biden-camps-defense-controversial-dinner-burisma-exec FULL DEVON ARCHER TRANSCRIPT

Portland woman knocked out by attacker blames city for slow police response: ‘We did this to ourselves’ ....‘We’re on our own’: Portland woman says homeless man knocked her unconscious.....A Portland doctor knocked unconscious while walking in the city says her attack highlights ongoing problems with homelessness, mental illness and police shortages...... and then she waited more than 20 minutes without a police response. ....."I do not hold the police accountable for this at all — I hold our city accountable for defunding the police....We don't have enough police force to protect our citizens, and we did this to ourselves....." .....The attack happened shortly after 10:30 Friday night. One minute, Costantino was walking in Southwest Portland with a friend. The next, she woke up on the ground, blood pouring out of her mouth. She was sure she was about to be killed and immediately dialed 911.....She had been struck in the face by an aluminum water bottle hurled by a man, she said. There had been no yelling, no sign of danger to give Costantino time to defend herself. She credits her friend with saving her from further harm....."He said that the perpetrator … was still coming towards me," she said. "And he turned around and really aggressively yelled at him and the guy ran away.....Had it not been for this person being with me, it would have, I think, been a lot worse...." ....."If we don't have police officers to come to the side of somebody who is under attack, then we're all on our own," Costantino said....Her situation is not unusual. Portlanders have faced increasingly long police response times for years. The average for a high-priority call was 23.7 minutes in July, according to PPB data, the longest wait in more than a decade..."At the time this call came in, our officers were actively on 26 calls throughout the city," he wrote. "There were 0 free officers and another 52 calls holding.".... ..."I absolutely did not vote for Jo Ann Hardesty," she said, referring to a previous city commissioner who supported defunding the police in 2020.

DEI firm allegedly called White principal who died by suicide a 'weed' that should be cut down .....The CEO of an influential equity firm – KOJO Institute – which lists the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as a former client – allegedly referred to a White principal who recently killed himself as a "weed" during a 2021 equity training after he disagreed with her claims about critical race theory.....The Toronto principal – Richard Bilkszto – cited the KOJO trainings from 2021, as well as the professional fallout that resulted from the incident – as factors which caused a depressive episode, according to a suit. Bilkszto committed suicide on July 14, after the suit was filed. ...."If you listen to the way in which he was spoken to, he was being told that his opinions and beliefs were less valuable because of the color of his skin, that’s racist...." .....After his death, Bilkszto's family said the allegations listed in the lawsuit factored into his suicide. ....CRT is a lens which generally holds that society is rigged against certain groups on the basis of skin color. It decries the idea of succeeding by merit as a "myth," and ranks races into privilege categories, with White people considered the most privileged. ...."We are here to talk about anti-Black racism, but you in your Whiteness think that you can tell me what’s really going on for Black people?" – Kike Ojo-Thompson to Richard Bilkszto .....During a training for administrators at a Toronto school district, KOJO CEO Ojo-Thompson, claimed Canada was a racist country with deeply embedded oppressive systems, even more so than the U.S., according to the lawsuit. ...."We are stepping on necks, we are kneeling on necks, we are Derek Chauvin-ing a whole group of people… Patriarchy is killing you, capitalism is killing you, and White supremacy is taking your soul, but what do I know?" Thompson said.....Ojo-Thompson proceeded to call Canada "the bastion of White supremacy and colonialism," according to the suit.... ....Another trainer at KOJO, interjected, claiming Bilkszto was an "apologist" for racism, in front of all his administrative peers, according to the suit. Bilkszto's superiors and colleagues did not intervene when the alleged racial comments against his "Whiteness" were made. ....Ojo-Thompson proceeded "to publicly humiliate Bilkszto and make an example of him," going so far as to liken him to a "'weed' that needed to be cut down," the lawsuit said. ...."Bilkszto left the training session feeling humiliated, attacked, unsupported, harassed and alone. He suffered mental distress as a result," the lawsuit said. It added that the statements from KOJO's training amounted to racial harassment per the district's anti-discrimination policies..... .....After being allegedly "humiliated" in front of his senior colleagues, the superintendent – Sheryl Robinson-Petrazzini – publicly thanked KOJO on Twitter, and referenced the "resistance" faced during the training, according to the suit. When Bilkszto asked the superintendent to remove the tweet, believing it to be a de facto endorsement of Ojo-Thompson's characterizations, the superintendent refused, the suit said. ...."It just breaks my heart that he was treated so poorly," said FAIR's executive director. "Not only was he treated poorly by his DEI instructor, but also his supervisors who amplified those accusations and his colleagues who were silent."....Bilkszto was then called in for professional reprimand in relation to his ideological disagreement with Ojo-Thompson. When Bilkszto attended the next KOJO training, Ojo-Thompson attacked him again unprompted, while laughing at one point, according to the suit. .... "It is rare that when teaching something that you actually get a real life of the concept unfolding right before everyone’s eyes and ears, and we had that privilege last week, so I want to open by going back to the concept of resistance," Ojo-Thomson said, according to the suit. ...."One of the ways that White supremacy is upheld… is through resistance and like I said, as I began to speak earlier we had, I am so lucky [laughs], who would have thought my luck would have showed up so well last week, that we got perfect evidence of a wonderful example of resistance that all of you got to bear witness to, and we are going to talk about it, because it doesn’t get better than this," she continued, according to the suit.... https://www.foxnews.com/media/dei-firm-allegedly-called-white-principal-died-suicide-weed-should-cut-down

The first video I posted was from Brett Cooper of The Daily Wire, which is honestly less informative than Ana Kasparian with The Young Turks, which is the last video in the second post. Part of the reason I did that is it's rare to see Cooper's "mask" come off. She's a trained actress from childhood, so she is locking into a very "accessibly attractive" theme. She's cute, but not overwhelmingly beautiful. But she is also an influencer, very high profile now, and her entire "brand" is built around criticizing most leftism, with sprinkles and tidbits of pop culture "relatability" to make it look less grifter like. However the beyond surface level "mean girl" in Brett Cooper comes out here. Which goes back to some other issues in this entire scandal - Sometimes it's not about fame and money, sometimes it's the standard issue "Nearly All Women Like To Hate Other Women All The Time No Matter What" theme. Brett Cooper is around 5'10 in height. So that made her hard to cast in traditional TV, as many male actors are pretty short. She's also thin so that makes her look even taller. She's not attractive enough against the Hollywood baseline to be a femme fatale typecast. So there's also some latent resentment here from her, deep down, because like Lizzo, she doesn't meet a very very very narrow archetype for female celebrities in America. Could Lizzo be a bigot and a hypocrite? Entirely possible. Or could this just be more women hating other women no matter what, and this he said/she said/she said all really comes down to the truth probably dancing somewhere in the middle? Likely. That's the irony here. Even if Lizzo was as thin as Brett Cooper, she'd still probably be miserable. Because nearly all women have this exhausting routine with each other, where it's all mercenary, all the time, that most just can't get along with each other. Not deep down. I'm pretty old now. And my observation and experience is whenever a woman gets a small piece of power, or even a medium piece, it appears most of the time, their impetus is to just find a way to batter other women as soon and as hard as possible. In the end, I don't see Lizzo as a good example for the health angle, but I do wish she and Brett Cooper, respectively, treated themselves better. Were kinder to themselves. And then it would be infinitely easier to be kinder to other women around them.

On a personal level, I see Trump as a gutless soft serve narcissist grifter. I want him out of professional politics. All the chaos and drama that comes from being self inflicted ( some of it, a lot of it is FORCED upon him, on the other hand, he brings a lot of ugly crap onto himself by being an exhausting troll) drags away from real issues that should be focused on to help real every day working class Americans. However Trump is also, as a matter of principle, an American citizen. You can't sustain the Republic by this endless persecution of an American citizen, even if he is a gigantic POS, with some cheap petty "justification" The Republic was designed by our Founding Fathers to be bigger than just one man. But that's not what the DNC, Team Blue, the establishment Democrats and the Obama/Biden political machine are doing here. They are basically acting as if this "one man" is worth setting our country on fire. All our principles. All our rule of law. All our institutions and guardrails are crushed in the pursuit of just one exhausting orange nimrod. Trump is BOTH right and wrong at the same time. He's right in that the system is corrupt, the activist MSM is basically state sanctioned propaganda and he's often persecuted for being an "outsider" to the political machine. He's wrong in that he has to make it all about him and all the time, when that distracts from actually helping real people out there who are suffering and a paycheck and a half away from being homeless. It's OK to hate Trump if people want to do that. However the response by Team Blue and the DNC and the "establishment" is burning our democracy down in the pursuit of crushing The Big Cheeto. The utter destruction of our Republic creates a society where it's far easier for your children to suffer and die. If you think so little of Trump, why allow your children to inherit the kind of world that justifies hunting him beyond all reasonable measure? Trump is a worthless POS in my book. But he's not worth the lives, future, safety and security of the people I love in this life. I don't have a problem with anyone going after Trump on the basis of real principle. With real principle. Using real principle. But this is not it by any measure. You will probably disagree. My answer to that is take a look at your kids each night and ask yourself what kind of world they are going to get in the near future. Some people out there will defend Trump for the sake of him being Trump. I don't agree with that. I believe in defending the actual principle of our Republic, and if that also means, at times, defending Trump, even if you have to bite your nose to do it, you undertake that sometimes because he's an American citizen first and foremost, before being a specific individual. You don't care. You might however very quickly when it's the people you love that face their "turn" to be fully purified. Trump is not the only name on that list. Everyone's name is on that list. Your children's names are just written a little further down.

Asian gangs have put bounties out. If you looted or try to burn down an Asian business or storefront in a predominantly Asian small business area, in many major cities now, they will track you down, then do the standard 'home invasion' Then "disappear" the perpetrator and their entire family. The hard line street gangs from various ethnicities, many will not hesitate to kill the children of their enemies. The "Yardies" aka the core Jamaican gangsters will burn you alive. They will literally drape you in used tires, douse you in gasoline and light you on fire. A lot of these gangs also have inroads with sexual trafficking. So someone in a crew decides to hit the wrong "small business" They get dragged out to the desert. Before they get their throat cut, they find out their younger siblings will be shipped overseas as child prostitutes. Since the parents have no real value, they'll probably be executed there on the spot. The highly organized street gangs understand the informal rules. If there are no bodies found in the big cities, the cops really won't care.

Damn, @League Champion took down the entire backboard with that one. My friend, you are my favorite poster here.

More things to add to RLLD's excellent post A) Biden's policies on energy have essentially put a full halt on investment in refineries for diesel. Our nation's entire trucking industry lives and dies on diesel. And it has a cascading effect on prices everywhere for everything. There is also a dovetail impact on fuel for planes. Which then has a domino effect on commerce, mail, shipping, tourism and national security. To make that even worse, Biden traded Brittney Griner for Viktor Bout, the most notorious black markets weapons dealer in the entire world. One of his specialties is MANPADs, basically anti-aircraft missiles, which Biden left many of for the Taliban in the idiotic and chaotic "withdrawal" from Afghanistan. The radical leftist activists should think about that the next time they fly. Or their children fly. So for the unhinged activists reading this - Biden made it harder for people in transportation to keep their jobs, drove up prices for everyone, threatened national security, destroyed domestic energy independence and made it easier for all your children to get blown out of the sky and billed you for it with your own tax dollars. B ) The logistical pathway for drilling for oil goes hand in hand with natural gas production. Which still powers a full THIRD of America's total nation wide energy needs. You don't just hurt diesel and jet fuel on the back end, you are also hitting natural gas. C) The failed extraction from Afghanistan didn't just leave billions of dollars in high tech weapons to the Taliban and other terrorist groups. It also left the 2nd largest lithium deposits in the entire world. The Taliban immediately cut a deal with the CCP and Xi Jinping. Who has a world wide chokehold on electric car battery production? China. Who cut deals with China and their storefront "shell" companies for the CCP? James Biden, Joe Biden's brother. Several major banking institutions literally begged James Biden to stop making transactions that forced them to "Red Flag" him and his accounts, because they feared retaliation from the Joe Biden political machine. Who has personal investment in electric vehicle related companies and lied about it to Congress? Jennifer Granholm. And she also is pushing hard for the US military to convert all it's ground based vehicles to electric. The same companies that handle electric car batteries in China use different shell corporations and false fronts, of which some are known for production "precursor" For what? For shipping to Mexico to the Sinaloa Drug Cartel, to produce fentanyl to be pumped into American cities. How are these Cartel members armed to guard these shipments? With firearms sold to them by Obama, Biden and Eric Holder during Operation Fast And Furious. Particularly AK47s and anti-material rifles. If you want to give terrorists and drug cartels a bunch of guns paid for with American tax dollars to eventually kill more people in the United States, while destroying domestic energy production, then Joe Biden is your personal savior. By the way, for the radical leftists in here, if that wasn't enough, Cartel mules regularly rape little girls coming across the Border. Also engage in human trafficking for sexual slavery and prostitution. And up to 17 million women and little girls were left to be "war brides" in Afghanistan. To be sodomized and gang raped. If you are an innocent little brown girl somewhere in the world, Joe Biden has made it his personal mission to set the pathway for you to be open massacred like a pure human toilet. Of course timschochet won't address any of that. His only purpose is to gaslight people here. That's the thing about Tim, nothing he says is his own opinion, he only lays bait to try to get people banned later.

Canadian news outlet founder speaks out after Trudeau denies them journalism 'license' .....Canada PM Justin Trudeau seeking to forcibly silence news outlet....Rebel News founder Ezra Levant sounded off Tuesday after the Trudeau administration denied his outlet what he described as a newly-conceived "license" to fully practice journalism.....Levant told "Tucker Carlson Tonight" that, if the Liberal Party leader's behavior during the Ottawa trucker protests is any indicator, he is working hard to punish critics and upturn their lives. ...He noted how Prime Minister Justin Trudeau previously slammed his agency when a reporter from it asked a question during a press availability while the politician was running for reelection in 2021. At the time, Trudeau claimed Rebel News was engaging in "disinformation on the science around vaccines" and made a point to declare he could not bring himself to describe them as a "media organization." ....."It's not yet illegal to do journalism without that license, it's a government license called the Qualified Canadian Journalism Organization License. A government panel reviews you. They spent one year reviewing Rebel News, looking through more than 100 of our stories," Levant told host Tucker Carlson......"A panel of five people in secret: We don't even know what they said or did or what they looked at. And they claim that only one percent of our stories are news, so we don't get the license....." ....Trudeau plans to "compel" Big Tech to down-rank non-licensed journalists and change the Income Tax Act to punish them, Levant said. "We're not banned yet, although we are banned from government events, as you said earlier. But I'm worried that he's done all this in two years. The worst is yet to come. He may well ban us yet," he concluded.... https://www.foxnews.com/media/rebel-news-license-justin-trudeau-founder-speaks-tucker-carlson ****** Don't care who specifically, by gender, that Trudeau sleeps with or not. He's a horrible and corrupt leader and he's an anchor around the neck of the people of Canada. Here's what would bother me about an "affair" by an elected official. When he got married 18 years ago, did he take a vow? A traditional vow to be faithful? If he did, and he broke it, with a man or a woman or a farm animal or whatever, then he's a liar and a cheat and that reflects on his lack of integrity. Which should highlight why he can't be trusted. Same for Trump. As someone will bring that up next. If he took traditional vows with all his wives and cheated on them, then he's a POS and can't be trusted. Same for Biden. Same for the idiot Gavin Newsom. Same for "Heels Up" Kamala Harris. Don't care if people make some "arrangement" later. Did you speak the words? Did you do it in front of God, your family, your friends, your co-workers, to the public around you? That's why I find "remarried" people a little bit hilarious at times. You promised your life to someone. Then you went and did it again. Personally I believe marriage is one of the most insane things a person could choose to do in this life. But if you do, if you say the words, that should mother f**king mean something. Trudeau is an incompetent corrupt limp wristed fascist. He's a petty tyrant that reeks of all the worst traits of a gutless bottom feeding Beta male. But I will draw the line on his preferences. That he's a cheater, if that comes out, is the problem. Not who specifically he cheats with and why.
