    Disability Pride Month

    No, but you have expressed thinly veiled contempt for LGBTQ Pride Month calling it "alphabet soup pride month" and not as crucial as Disability Pride Month, perhaps suggesting you think it shouldn't be celebrated at all.

    Tsunami To Hit Hawai

    Yeah, he got duped again. It wasn't the first time here and probably won't be the last. Following the right wing mob on Twitter, he repeated the accusations against Oprah without bothering to see if there was any truth to them. And, of course, now that he has been made to look foolish again, there has been no apology for this false reporting, nor an admission that he was wrong.

    Tsunami To Hit Hawai

    From Grok A tsunami warning was issued for Hawaii on July 29, 2025, after an 8.8-magnitude quake off Russia, causing evacuations and traffic jams in Maui. Claims Oprah refused to open her private road are false; her team confirmed it was opened promptly with law enforcement's help, as per Maui PD and her spokesperson. She did the same during past wildfires.
  5. And often, even when the false and misleading information is refuted, they still believe it. Case in point: The claim that Senator Van Hollen was "sipping margaritas" with Garcia has been completely debunked yet I still keep seeing it repeated on Twitter and on this forum.

    https://katv.com/news/nation-world/oprah-responds-to-claims-her-private-road-in-hawaii-was-closed-during-tsunami-evacuations-maui-island-police-social-media-rumors-spokesperson-statement Oprah responds to claims her private road in Hawaii was closed during tsunami evacuations WASHINGTON (TNND) — Oprah Winfrey is responding after a viral social media post claimed her private road in Hawaii was closed off despite tsunami warnings in the state and evacuations orders issued across the islands. On Tuesday evening, a confirmed 8.8-magnitude earthquake off Russia's coast started a slew of small tsunamis throughout the Pacific Coast, with waves eventually reaching Hawaii and the West Coast. A post on X, which has since been updated with a community note to refute the claims, reported that Winfrey had kept her private road closed. [...] In a statement to Newsweek, a spokesperson for Winfrey refuted the claims, writing, "As soon as we heard the tsunami warnings, we contacted local law enforcement and FEMA to ensure the road was opened. Any reports otherwise are false." The spokesperson also told the outlet the road would remain open as long as necessary.
  8. Let's keep bringing up old quotes from Biden and maybe folks will quit talking about Epstein.
  9. Not to mention the Latinos who foolishly believed Trump when he said he would go after the criminals first (the murderers and rapists) but now they are seeing friends, neighbors, co-workers and relatives being caught up in the ICE sweeps for deportations to the meet the weekly quotas.
  10. So do I, but they never seem to remember that.
  11. Biden said this in a 2012 campaign speech and he was talking figuratively, not literally. OP must be short of new material if this is the best they can come up with. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/joe-biden-put-yall-back-in-chains/

  13. Other unconfirmed reports have it as high as 8.7 https://www.reuters.com/business/environment/magnitude-8-earthquake-strikes-off-russias-kamchatka-sparks-tsunamis-warnings-2025-07-29/ Magnitude 8 earthquake strikes off Russia's Kamchatka, sparks tsunamis warnings, USGS says By Reuters July 30 (Reuters) - A magnitude 8 earthquake struck off Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula on Wednesday, sparking tsunami warnings from Japan and the U.S. Tsunami Warning Center.

  15. Yes, sparsely population but some folks do live there. Per Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamchatka_Peninsula The Kamchatka Peninsula, the Commander Islands, and Karaginsky Island constitute Kamchatka Krai of the Russian Federation. The majority of the 322,079 inhabitants are ethnic Russians, with about 13,000 being Koryaks (2014).[4] More than half of the population lives in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky (179,526 in 2010) and nearby Yelizovo (38,980).

    So Long Stephen Colbert

    Poor Colbert. He's raging again.

    You keep saying that without any proof, you are making unwarranted assumptions about what kind of person Colbert is and how he feels about his staffers (has he shown a history of not caring for them?).
