Vindman, someone who was on the July call and has been in other meetings, does not paint a pretty picture. I'm sure Republicans will attack the substance and not the character of the man. Just like they've done all along. Oh wait...they haven't You know, there is actually a publicly available trans...

Even if mentioned in another thread, this deserves it own. Breaking news this morning confirmed the ISIS leader and world’s most wanted terrorist is dead thanks to US Special Operations Command and Trump. :nod: https://apnews.com/039141e1e5ca4c72a1e6fff3e3cba988 This time wasn’t Seal Team 6 but Del...

Why stop at 70%? Let's do 90%. Hell, why stop there? Let's just confiscate all the assets of the 1%?

How can anyone argue with that logic?

Now that the New York Times mentioned that the so called whistleblower met with Schiff ahead of time, are any of you libs going to admit this whole thing is just another hoax and more lies? Schiff should at least be required to give up his seat,he won’t. JSO and Jelly will continue to let their TDS...

Let's remember, Bill Barr is a Bushie. His investigations are just political theater. No Democrat will go to prison.

It seems the intelligence community just last month secretly nixed the requirement that whistleblowers must have direct knowledge of wrongdoing before they can file a complaint. Now, hearsay evidence is permitted. This must be a coincidence. The timing isn't suspect at all and we know the intellige...

I don't think it's saying every link on Drudge is bad information or that every single thing on Fox News bubbles up from Gateway Pundit or 4chan. But, you can trace things like the CrowdStrike conspiracy from 4chan to Dad's Facebook (or Trump's Twitter feed or calls with foreign leaders). I'm not s...

A few pundits (Bill Galston, to name one) are now broaching the idea of censure as opposed to impeachment, both recognizing the futility of an impeachment effort and suggesting one way for conflicted Republicans (what few there may be) to weigh in against Trump. According to Mike Murphy there are 3...

Not sure why that arrow can't apply to link aggregation Does Rush Limbaugh produce news stories? Dad's Facebook? The headline in the above graphic is "... Intentionally Bad Information." Are all the aggregated links on Drudge intentionally bad information? He does link to The Guardian, NY...

You do realize that Drudge doesn't produce news stories, don't you? They link to news stories from many sources around the globe.

So, he was just relaying the position of the United States government. Gosh, I thought that's what ambassadors were for. Oh, I thought that was what your personal attorney is for. How much do you think Trump's personal attorney is being paid for sitting on a BoD in an industry in which he has no ex...

A stronger case that Biden and his son were involved in influence peddling while Biden was the sitting VPOTUS? No. That stuff about Biden and his son is nonsense. There is no "there" there at all with that stuff. Biden simply relayed the position of the United States as well as the other ...

But, it doesn't matter, he won't be convicted. Impeachment will hopefully help speed subpoenas through the court and give House Committees a stronger case.

None of the above. Fuck 'em all.

If we really wanted a system consistent with the idea that the country belongs to people of every zip code, we would not have the Electoral College system. We would not have a system whereby the vote of a person with a California zip code has less weight than the vote of a person with a Wyoming zip...

No, I don't think they give away guns for free. They have to buy them just like everyone else.

It's Mississippi. Why would the GOP need to rig the voting machines?

It's truth. Intelligence test are notorious for being bias against African American culture.

Maybe African American culture is biased against African Americans.

Why should the child born of people who illegally crossed our borders be automatically given citizenship? When you think about it, being born here may be the purest “Occam’s razor” citizenship test that could be devised. It’s one area where I’ve actually mellowed over the years. The real test is to...
