    Political Persecution? Schiff

    No I won't post in a thread that calls him "Bug Eyes" This thread was started before yours so I'll post about Schiff here instead or perhaps start a thread for each future news item about Schiff.

    Official Adam Schiff Thread (AKA Ol Bug Eyes)

    If you want it to be the Official Adam Schiff Thread take out the "bug-eyed liar" part in the thread title, otherwise I will start another thread without it.

    Democrats Underwater in New Pole

    From The Harvard Crimson https://www.thecrimson.com/column/forging-harvards-future/article/2024/3/26/bodnick-/ Harvard Should Break up With the Harris Poll By Maya A. Bodnick, Contributing Opinion Writer Harvard is lending its name to a methodologically flawed poll that often promotes a right-wing political agenda. Every month, the Harvard-Harris Poll (a partnership between Harvard’s Center for American Political Studies, The Harris Poll, and HarrisX) administers a public opinion survey that tracks Americans’ attitudes on a wide range of political and social issues. It’s no secret that the Harvard-Harris Poll is inaccurate and misleading. A number of experts from both sides of the aisle — including statistician Nate R. Silver, Democratic pollster Geoff D. Garin ’75, Republican pollster Chris Wilson, liberal journalist Josh M.J. Marshall, and conservative law professor Ilya Somin — have criticized the survey. FiveThirtyEight, a public opinion blog that aggregates political polls, recently ranked Harris Insights & Analytics in the bottom 50 percent of American pollsters. Harvard aspires to be the top academic institution in the world — so why is the University attaching its name to a mediocre poll that has been blasted by political experts? Harvard should immediately disaffiliate from this flawed and biased survey. Since 2017 — when Trump sympathizer Mark J. Penn ’76 became one of the poll’s co-directors — the poll has relied on leading questions. Unlike a proper survey, which asks unbiased questions in order to collect accurate and reliable information, Harvard-Harris poll questions tend to align with right-wing narratives and prompt respondents to lean toward conservative choices. To see this ideological slant, let’s take a look at a question in last month’s poll about U.S. President Joseph R. Biden’s bipartisan immigration bill. In the prompt, the poll regurgitated Republican talking points, citing the number of migrants that would enter the country each day, — a claim that is highly misleading — and stating that Trump has opposed the bill “to give the Biden administration any wins on an issue that he says they failed to do anything about.” The question failed to specify a single positive consequence of the bill. Naturally, as a result of this skewed framing, the results showed that a majority supported Trump’s position of blocking the bill from passing. [...]

    CA gay couple kills baby

    Not an issue to the homophobes on this forum and if this had been a heterosexual couple there wouldn't even be a thread on it.

    L.A. ICE raids/protests thread

    With all the time he has to post here 24/7, HT somehow isn't able to provide links to prove what he says nor can he be bothered to actually read the links that others post.

    Adam Schiff a Pedocrat?

    Particularly since it is a complete lie with nothing to back it up. I may have to a start an "Official Adam Schiff" thread since I am tired of seeing him falsely labeled a pedo in the thread title.

    L.A. ICE raids/protests thread

    Not only that but the link he cited also said: "Record-high 79% consider immigration good for the country" Which doesn't sound like Republicans are winning on this issue either. Just sayin'...

    Political Persecution? Schiff

    Political persecution? Of course it is. And if anyone believes otherwise I have a bridge to sell you.

    Adam Schiff a Pedocrat?

    A complete lie. And I've never had an Instragram account either, but if you can prove it, then provide a link as I would like to see it for myself.
  11. We are supposed to take you seriously when you are discussing "inbreeding rates in Somalia"?

    Trump Fact Checking Thread

  13. That I doubt. The continued ICE raids will have to reduce the numbers of undocumented crossing the border.

    Democrats Underwater in New Pole

    Of course it should, Harvard CAPS/Harris is a right wing leaning push poll that uses biased misleading questions to get the results they want, so any of their polls can't be trusted.

    Adam Schiff a Pedocrat?

    Meh. Sure this will turn out to be a nothingburger. Trump just using government to go after his political enemies.
  18. It was on the weekend (Sunday in L.A. too, I think) and was the best live radio broadcast of the 70's (which isn't saying much given the competition) The sound quality was always excellent.
  19. I'll agree with you just on the bolded part and that's it.
