I am sure that this, too, will bring swift condemnation from President Trump.

What happened is after a day of detention they took her to the border with Ukraine and tried to expel her from Belarus, but she refused to leave the country.  So last I heard there's a standoff at the border.  Pretty brave as her main options are really exile or jail, since she is in custody.

Her and the recently Novichok'd Russian opp guy are heroes of democracy.   Hope they both survive and thrive. 

Meanwhile there is DeJoy in Mudville...

So, Rwd and kiid, explain to me why you find the Trump comments about military service, reported in the Atlantic and corroborated by other news agencies,  including Faux News, to not be credible.

Now the sport shifts from baseball to greased pig catching.   

What's ridiculous, as usual,  is the denials in spite of many things that were said into a live mike.   

We already know it quacks like a duck.   So when reliable sources tell reporters that they heard the duck also quacking off-mike,  it's not that hard to believe.

I think you'd be better off just posting your thoughts, without targeting other members of this forum.

Why are you targeting Hairy?   I posed the same request for explanation.

No explanation IOW. 

Trump insulted John McCain's service in the military,  in front of a microphone, in 2015.  T or F?   

Plenty of examples like that,  where it's on the record.  Your denials are childish.

Red agrees with trump’s disparagement of the US military. He is ready to kowtow to the Red Army when it arrives through Sarah Palin’s back door.

Kiid doesn’t want to talk about his sexual hang ups or drug addled takes on politics, policy, or society.

I'm not really sure I understand the Sino-Oz tussle.
Is it just one of those tit-for-tat things that just escalated?

But when it involves journalist being detained and kicked out, that's not good.  Though NYT and WSJ reporters get booted from China now and then.

Well, in the sense that I did not expect a substantive response from either of you, perhaps.

I too once met a girl in Central Park, but it is not much to remember. What I remember is the time John Wayne killed three men with a carbine as he was falling to the dusty street in Stagecoach, and the time the kitten found Orson Welles in the doorway in The Third Man.

Sounds like it was corroborated to me.

I take that as an admission.

Al Sharpton on MSNBC, September 8, 2020


We need to re-imagine how we do policing, but ... to take all policing off is something a latte liberal may go for as they sit around the Hamptons discussing this as an academic problem.

But people living on the ground need proper policing,”


Yeah. And?
If someone like Al Sharpton can figuratively note the Emperors are naked don’t be surprised if a lot of blacks feel the same way come Election Day.

Your original response was clear.

‘Nuff said.

Your original response was clearly wrong. Your decision to get all pig faced about it was clearly expected and in character.
But it keeps him from having to acknowledge "loser sucker" dead soldiers so it meets his purpose.

Exactly.
Even when RED is often wrong it serves his purpose if he can distract enough folks to clog up the forum with pointless back and forth.
