    Q

    'One the same day that a QAnon supporter won a Massachusetts GOP primary unopposed, a poll showed that more than half of Republican voters think that the conspiracy theory is mostly or partly true. A Daily Kos/Civiqs poll, released on Wednesday, showed that 33 percent of Republicans believe that the QAnon theory is "mostly true". Another 23 percent believed that "some parts of the conspiracy are true".
  2. As usual cherry picking of news by the right to confuse and mislead. "The Hennepin County Public Defender’s office conducted a similar study this year, analyzing data from June 1, 2019 to May 31, 2020—just days after George Floyd was killed. The office found that Black and East African drivers were 78% of the people searched by the police for moving or equipment violations, and only 12% were white. After being stopped, 41% of white drivers eventually were arrested, compared to only 26% of Black and East African drivers. The Minneapolis Star Tribune verified these findings. To lawyers and activists, the answer appears to be simple: Black Minneapolitans are being targeted—consciously or unconsciously—because of their race. “When I talk to people in the community, Black people know they’re being profiled,” Moriarty, who is white, said. “Nobody stops my car because my tail light’s out and then tries to search it.”... The department has been making an average of 80% fewer traffic stops each week since May 25, the day of Floyd’s death, according to an analysis by Bloomberg CityLab." It’s a particularly striking data point given observations in some U.S. cities that police appear to be quietly disengaging from some parts of their jobs." So instead of protect and serve its let the criminals loose on the public so budgets can be sustained.
  3. Arson is a red herring in the entire wildfire/forest fire debate. A single thunderstorm can start dozens of fires in a single day. Only super dry conditions or prolonged drought produce the massive fires that are more common now. Reckless campers start more fires than all the arsonists put together.
  4. Because fiction is so close to the truth for the trump herd.
  5. How Rupert Murdoch is influencing Australia’s bushfire debate The Australian: Murdoch-owned newspaper accused of downplaying bushfires in favour of picnic races Rupert Murdoch is leading Australia to climate ruin In America Murdoch is known as FOX news, same "news" different names.

    covid-19

    "Merica"... But wait... news flash "During a town hall meeting for undecided voters in Philadelphia on Tuesday, President Donald Trump said his long-promised health care plan was "all ready."
  7. As usual trump has been played because of his negotiation style. He started out negotiations with the Taliban by excluding the Afghanistan government. U.S. has persuasive intel Taliban do not intend to abide by terms of peace deal, officials say Once again trump is following Nixon in every way. The Taliban have read the Paris peace accords and will follow its cue cards to the letter. The sham peace agreement will allow free territory for Al-Qaeda operations. Deadly Cooperation: The Shifting Ties Between Al-Qaeda and the Taliban Taliban Maintain Ties to Al-Qaeda Affiliate: Pentagon None of this matters to trump or his followers because lipstick on the pig is all thats wanted, required, or expected.
  8. North Korea has built 7 nuclear weapons per year under trump. Despite U.S. Sanctions, Iran Expands Its Nuclear Stockpile. Two years after Trump withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal, Tehran has cut in half the time it would need to produce enough weapons-grade fuel for a nuclear bomb. Trump surrendered Afghanistan to the Taliban Trump surrenders, declares it a victory, and goes home. The Afghanistan 'peace deal' will see America cut and run. The U.N. exposes the limits of the Trump peace plan with the Taliban. Contrary to the Trump administration’s peace plan with the Taliban, al-Qaida is more embedded in the Afghan Taliban than ever. The Taliban have not renounced their alliance with al-Qaida. As usual your FOX news primer on trumps success is way off the mark in fact and on the ground.
  9. You?. Somehow a fully armed Arrows team plane seems silly.
  10. Well he's taking 38% of Americans with him:Polls show trust in scientific, political institutions eroding. Perhaps another plague is needed to have the proper Darwin effect on trump/GOP anti-science and "Q" followers. Australia 'The raging fires in Australia have burned over 12.35 million acres of land (2019)-- with at least 24 people killed and more than 2,000 homes destroyed by the blazes" Wildfires have now burned more than 4.6 million acres, killed 35 people,destroyed or damaged 3,500 structures, in the US as of 17 hours ago. So trump has not made America first but the fire season is just getting started.
  11. and he's not voting for trump either! IMO trump's barrage of lies has had some sort of hypnotic effect on his clan. At least Ron is honest about voting for trump.
  12. US law is currently interpreted by Barr and Congress. Case closed. According to recent tweets US officers and service personnel are the warmongers. trump is the dove. "I'm not saying the military's in love with me -- the soldiers are, the top people in the Pentagon probably aren't because they want to do nothing but fight wars so that all of those wonderful companies that make the bombs and make the planes and make everything else stay happy," In another month trump will start ordering carriers to be sent over to the gulf. The "Q" and trumpists will all be applauding .armageddon.
  13. It on take-off roll now: Trump ad asks people to support the troops. But it uses a picture of Russian jets. “That’s definitely a MiG-29,” said Pierre Sprey, who helped design both the F-16 and A-10 planes for the U.S. Air Force. “I’m glad to see it’s supporting our troops.” Trump likes to recognize and support the troops that support him. "Last October, Rep. Brian Mast (R-Fla.) tweeted a picture of the Russian battlecruiser Pyotr Velikiy with the comment: “Happy birthday to the US Navy. "
  14. Anti-Hilliary, anti-Biden before there was a Biden then anti-Biden. Sure, thats what it is. "The top communications official at the powerful cabinet department in charge of combating the coronavirus made outlandish and false accusations on Sunday that career government scientists were engaging in “sedition” in their handling of the pandemic and that left-wing hit squads were preparing for armed insurrection after the election. Michael R. Caputo, the assistant secretary of public affairs at the Department of Health and Human Services, accused the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of harboring a “resistance unit” determined to undermine President Trump, even if that opposition bolsters the Covid-19 death toll. Mr. Caputo, who has faced intense criticism for leading efforts to warp C.D.C. weekly bulletins to fit Mr. Trump’s pandemic narrative, suggested that he personally could be in danger from opponents of the administration. “If you carry guns, buy ammunition, ladies and gentlemen, because it’s going to be hard to get,” he urged his followers. He went further, saying his physical health was in question, and his “mental health has definitely failed.” Your man/boy trump promised to hire only the best and there it is!
  15. He needs a high horse to get above the stink of the logic used by his tribe. Contrary to his assertion that he's a "centrist".
  16. The protests of BLM have been going on during the entirety of the trump administration. trump's answer has been pushback and lies. The new Woodward book is entitled "Rage" and when asked why he chose that name for the title of a book about trump. "As with its predecessor, the title of the book is derived from a conversation that Woodward had with Trump in March 2016. Woodward contended that "a lot of angst and rage and distress" was present in the Republican Party to which Trump replied that "I bring rage out. I do bring rage out." "Mr. Woodward pointed out that both he and Mr. Trump were “white, privileged” and asked if Mr. Trump was working to “understand the anger and the pain, particularly, Black people feel in this country.” Mr. Trump replied, “No,” and added: “You really drank the Kool-Aid, didn’t you? Just listen to you. Wow. No, I don’t feel that at all.” Mr. Woodward writes that he tried to coax the president into speaking about his understanding of race. But Mr. Trump would only say over and over that the economy had been positive for Black people before the coronavirus led to an economic crisis." So this thread is about law enforcement officers being attacked yet the baiting of the trump WH of nutjobs and the lunatic fringe is unaddressed. The US this year has had trump supporters shot at pointblank range by left wing nuts. Kids toting AR-15's killing protestors, being applauded by the right and their mouthpiece FOX. Now cops. Yet the rhetoric by trump and his tribe gets ratcheted up again and again. Get ready for more.
  17. ‘Donald Trump's Day Is Coming And The Courts Got His Number’
  18. Yes, yes and more yes. But i would change gut to other objectives of which most are at odds with the interests of the country. There are always politicians and business leaders who lack expertise or agile thinking in decision making. But if they can surround themselves with skilled and smart advisors. Then use that advice with the aim of prudent objectives the day will be won.
  19. Sounds like all legitimate reasons to be suffocated to death by the state. Perhaps instead of letting felons out of prison because of Covid infections. They should just all be killed to save money? Or just the unpolite felons?
