    Trump talk only- no Eagles talk allowed (Steelers talk is OK though)

    This "Kamala is a Commie" meme is not going to fly because voters under 40 don't know what the hell they are talking about.

    Venezuela gangs take over parts of Aurora

    https://sentinelcolorado.com/opinion/perry-aurora-officials-must-counter-venezuelan-gang-hysteria-perpetrated-by-dodgy-politicians-and-media-propagandists/ OPINION PERRY: Aurora officials must counter Venezuelan gang hysteria perpetrated by dodgy politicians and media propagandists Enough. Aurora residents have had enough of their community and some of the most vulnerable people among us being made dangerously into pawns for a despicable right-wing political farce. Some city and regional Republican lawmakers — especially Aurora Councilmember Danielle Jurisnky, Mayor Mike Coffman and congressional hopeful John Frabbricatore — owe Aurora, the state and the nation an apology for purposely generating terror in a foul and blatant grab for political gain. In my almost 40 years of being a journalist, the nationally televised fabrication that Venezuelan gangsters run amok in Aurora is among the most despicable and dangerous stunts I’ve ever seen. Aurora interim police Chief Heather Morris, late to the game in this controversy, made it unequivocal late Friday when Aurora released a video of her saying adamantly, “What we’re learning out here is that gang members definitely have not taken over this complex,” Morris said. A community “overrun” and “taken over” by gangs is the outlandish fabrication that Jurinsky has perpetrated locally and nationally. She’s done it with the aid of propagandists posing as journalists at Fox News, the New York Post and a handful of local TV and print news outlets. This grisly attempt at terrorizing Aurora residents, in hopes of swaying voters to back anti-immigrant candidates and causes, must stop. These people have never and could not now care less about the decades-long struggles of some of the poorest and most vulnerable people in the metro area. Northwest Aurora has since the 1970s struggled with gang crime, street crime, apartment crime, prostitution, drug crime, wage theft, homelessness, dilapidated and run down apartments, incredible transiency and a city government that has looked the other way year after year — after year. And suddenly, the public is expected to believe that, out of nowhere, there’s a gang problem in dubious apartments run into the ground by, coincidentally, the same landlord, which even Coffman called a “slumlord?” [...] One of the first cockamamie stories she retells came from the discredited landlord that owns these buildings. Apartment landlord officials told the Sentinel and others that roving Venezuelan immigrant gangsters were “collecting”rent from apartment tenants and then not giving it to the landlord. Supposedly, that’s why he couldn’t pay the apartment complex water bill or have the trash removed. Huh. Tell me the apartment complex where anyone collects cash rent at the door. By Coffman’s own admission — and his lament — most, if not all, of the Venezuelan immigrants in these apartments have been “placed there” by Denver aid agencies, and they pay the rent directly to the landlord, just like everybody else does. Even Chief Morris said Friday the story was bogus, and they couldn’t find a single resident who told that ludicrous yarn. [...]

    https://x.com/kylegriffin1/status/1830669669101113365 The headline of the latest release from the Harris campaign: "Where Is Trump? Donald Dodges Labor on Labor Day: Today's Snub Reflects Trump's Anti-Worker and Anti-Union Agenda."
  5. And can you imagine the reaction here if Joe Biden was crying about how mean Trump was to Harris? There would probably be multiple threads about it.
  6. Who knew that "A True Alpha Chad" could be so whiny?
  7. https://x.com/harris_wins/status/1830306353023479854 (video clip at link) BREAKING: Tim Walz receives an enormous ovation at the Dairy Building in Minnesota. Unlike Donald Trump or JD Vance, Americans enjoy spending time with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. Retweet so all Americans, and especially the media, see this enthusiasm.

    Check in thread if a fellow geek keeps calling you

    Keeps calling you what?
  9. Dude, if you need a swing state to point to for giving some hope for Trump, then Minnsota is the wrong one.

    Like Trump will do anything for them, given his history.

    That is because they can't figure out a plan of attack against her. They tried "She ain't black" plus "she's dumb" and Swift Boating Tim Walz, but they haven't goten traction with any of that (outside of the MAGA base). Plus JD Vance seems to make things worse everytime he opens his mouth, not to mention the Arlington Cemetery photo op debacle.
  15. Can you give a specific example of where I went over the line?

    According to some, TimScochet and I were responsible for shutting down the PSF at FBGs. There is no truth to that, of course. They closed the PSF because the moderators lost control of it as they wouldn't suspend the worst trouble makers (since Joe wanted a place "Where my Republican friends would feel welcome").
  17. That isn't true. I probably got over a dozen suspensions (mostly from Joe or a Mod misreading or misunderstanding what I wrote) but I don't remember any for "disgusting insults" or any insults of other posters for that matter (unless you consider disagreeing with someone an insult).

    People sometimes ask and even demand answers from me, in reaction to my posts, and then can get upset if I don't respond. This is letting them know not to expect an a responce from me, since I haven't seen it (unless someone quotes them and even then I won't answer someone I've put of ignore).
