All purpose news and politics thread part VI: This Is Not The Time For Posing

[babyblob]

I thought it was Andrew, a.k.a., “Randy Andy” who screwed things up for the Royals by hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

nah that is not talked about as much as Megan because he is the right color and male.

I have heard so much of the "Its not Harry. He was fine till Meghan brainwashed him."

In the middle of a global food shortage that is killing people in developing countries, Russia is setting Ukraine's wheat fields on fire.

Twitter Thread - Peter Strzok

Take a moment to think about the staggering counterintelligence issues in the crazy Dec 18, 2020 WH meeting. A thread.

In the Oval Office, people advocated Trump illegitimately hold on to power, including using the military to seize voting machines.

That group included: (/1)

Mike Flynn, who who was paid by an organ of Russian state media to travel to Moscow to attend a dinner where he was seated next to Putin.

Flynn later plead guilty to lying to the FBI about conversations he had with the Russian Ambassador about election interference. (/2)

Patrick Byrne, one of several men once in an intimate relationship with convicted Russian agent Marina Butina.

Byrne gave money to Butina after her return to Russia, where she ran for the Duma, hounded Navalny, and supported the invasion of Ukraine. (/3)

The idea that it's always malicious compliance is just as ridiculous as the idea that it never happens.

I can see Fox spinning the upcoming shortages to blame Biden.

Well my post was a joke, but otherwise no one has tried to say it's always or never malicious. When asked your best answer for why you thought it was malicious was that it seemed off to you to obey the letter of the law so strictly (Or so I understood), and when it was pointed out that the policy had no letter or anything set in stone yet so that it might just be your political preferences influencing your decision you never responded.

Teachers are being hounded out of towns for no real reason other than a hate of the CRT boogeyman, which has been reported on and shown in this thread if you chose to read the links. You also defended people shutting down Pride days and other ways to educate without any sort of indoctrination by comparing such to deadly diseases and a married politician cheating with a prostitute. As kids are shown heterosexual relationships in practically every cartoon and TV show ever, with showings of anything other than that being mocked far more than accepted (From classic Looney Toons to more modern day stuff) it's not like they aren't being exposed to this sort of stuff already.

Hey, remember all those people who were like 'Abigail Shrier is totally right to be concerned about this totally trendy transgender thing!'?

WELP..


Not that I expect anyone who did this to acknowledge that they were totally wrong and were enabling gross transphobic harm across the country while doing so. <3

Funny about how all of this was pointed out at the time yet it was ignored because of interviews online.

[CaptainEurope]

As upsetting as those USSS stories are, it is good to see that Major Biden is a very good boy after all.

[shooshoomanjoe]

Why is Huffpost, a generally unbiased news source being so hard on Biden lately?

IMO, they go by leftist trends and Biden isn't a popular president with the left.

Weird, right? It's almost like it was never about science and was really about bigotry all along!

Back in the day, before he married Fergie, Prince Andrew had a reputation for dating porn actresses. I'll bet his mother thinks of that as "the good old days" now.

Most of my leftist friends and acquaintances despise him. He is way too centrist. He is almost as bad as his more sleazy predecessor.

[CaptainEurope]

But Huffpost is a centrist site. Arianna Huffington used to be a Republican who became a moderate Democrat.

Yea I'm not too please with Dr. Biden calling me a breakfast taco.

Agreed. She was a big Hillary supporter and that site was full of anti-Obama (before he became the nominee) and anti-Bernie stories (still is). Kind of weird she hasn't shown up on Maher in a while, she was a staple on Politically Incorrect and he's also a weird mix of leftist and center-right beliefs.

I still cant get over that. Like doesnt she have anyone looking over her speeches?

From what I read, her intention was good, her choice of words .not so much so.

Democrats have a Hispanic/Latino Problem. Many of them are going Republican and there aren't enough Latino/Hispanic Democrats in public Office. Those that are, are not getting the national attention they should.
