I stand corrected on this point, I have investigated this topic more thoroughly, and unlike a focking pathetic liberal piece of sh!t like you I can admit when I am wrong. OK but WHY were you wrong about this? It’s not because you did anything bad yourself. It was because you got it from a source that deliberately lied to you. And that is a much larger problem. Here is my contention: the mainstream media isn’t always accurate, sometimes reports news with a bias, but generally tries to be objective. Right wing media deliberately offers misleading and false information which they know people like you want to hear. So long as you get your news from right wing media, you are ALWAYS going to be misinformed. This won’t be a one-off. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am wrong, in part , for the same reason you are wrong on the economy and tariffs, I failed to ingest all the require sources of information.t The legacy media cannot be trusted. Saying they arent always right was once a fair statement before Trump. But now they lie with such ease and lack of restraint that anything they might report should result in us starting from the position that it is a lie, and then we have to go from there. There is a reason that NONE.....of the things they have reported on the economy have come true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voltaire 5,346 Posted August 2 There were beverages served when Van Holen met with "Maryland Dad." I see coffee cups in saucers with stirring spoons, wine glasses with a clear colorless liquid, and a plastic water bottle.

But no deciding needed, putting Abrego in some decent clothes and taking him to a setting outside of the prison is obviously propaganda from Bukele. Anyone who doesn’t realize that is an idiot.

TimHauck 2,990 Posted August 2 This was interesting. Apparently one of the guys sent to CECOT was listed in a Texas gang database, except it had a photo of someone else. Of course the admin claims that had nothing to do with why he was sent to CECOT. Also, the guy who sang the chorus to “Gangsta’s paradise,” who worked as an advocate AGAINST kids joining gangs, got sent an official letter saying he had been labeled a gang member.
