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

[babyblob]

The Senate Judiciary Committee voted Thursday to advance the nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court. The vote was 12-0 as the ten Dems boycotted the vote and instead put posters of people helped by the ACA in their chairs.

The story about Hunter Biden's laptop and e-mails about China is getting harder for Joe and the mainstream media to ignore. Can't say where it will lead but it's not going away. Joe will have to address it. Ignore it at your own risk..

He already has. He basically stated in an interview he considers it a smear campaign against his son and himself. And he likely is already prepared to have to deal with Trump's accusations in the upcoming debate. This might surprise you, but the Mainstream Media hasn't ignored it considering Trump's row with Twitter.

He hasn't addressed whether or not the e-mails are genuine. A former business partner to Hunter has now come forward with alot more emails that appear to reference Joe being involved. Again, no idea how geniune everything is but unlike 90% of allegations made against Trump, you have an actual person come forward rather than the "unnamed source". Maybe he's revealed a fraud, I don't know, but as far as I can tell neither Hunter or Joe have disputed any of the emails thus far.

This is an actual quote from Giuliani, who perpetrated this hoax.

Rudy: Even if the Hunter laptop story is bogus, Americans ‘are entitled to know it’

Graham violated Senate rules in doing this. But rules are only for Democrats.

No one cares about it because it's obviously bullshit.

It's basically their attempt at doing Servergate. Except it's not working.

Yep. They claim the dems must be stopped due to their corruption and wanting to destroy America. That they are in American and must be stopped.

Err America cannot be completely right. That is Hoover era America and Nixon era America.

They got their damn wish as we have Nixon
Levels of corruption and Hoover’s depression.

Really, just sickens me.

That's because it's bullshit. It was literally pushed out on the New York Post, a tabloid newspaper, veracity be damned. Even people who worked there didn't want to be associated with the article.

Let's be realistic; rather than addressing real-world problems going on right now, GOP bigwigs would rather create problems to get their own gullible followers to rally around since they have proven they are too stupid and corrupt to tackle said real-world problems head on. "Oh, but Obama committed treason!" Where did that story go? FOX News stopped talking about it the moment it went nowhere.

Why is she opening it that way? That's not how you open a book. That's how you open a lead box containing Kryptonite if you want to kill Superman.

Stahl is in her 70s, and that "book of achievements" weighs twenty-five pounds. She's got it propped on the back o\f a chair and is trying to just delicately open it...

Only to discover it's twenty-five pounds of blank pages, because McEnany thought out the ruse that well.

Maybe but on Twitter right now, they're releasing a story about how Biden apparently made deals with a Chinese Corporation and apparently on Fox News they've had a named business partner step forward. The fact this all happening just before the Debate makes it quite clear the timing was deliberate. But the right wing is going nuts over this.

Looks like he was on IVs recently, so probably getting prophylactic antibody treatment for COVID, I'd wager. That said, there are lots of other legitimate reasons some in his age range could have to be on IVs.

He probably wore out his fangs and must now take the blood of small children through a tube.

Twitter and Fox are not legitimate News sources. The Right is meaningless to this election, their 40% of the voters can't win it alone.
