Also, you are a RACIST. Just need to remind people of an important fact.



This was not directed at me but how about a moratorium on calling forum members racist?

It's not helpful.  And it's IGGYTOWN for a while when I see it (see ya, Lime).

A new journal is starting up to vet COVID-19 preprints, call out misinformation, and report on credible research.

Which part is the funny part?



That he thinks  the administration would comment on such a hypothetical.

This is a case study in someone seeing only what they want to see.

A hypothetical?  Reports coming in from the ground in Afghanistan from US Special forces, high level NSC briefings on the subject in the White House (even if you believe that Trump wasn't in or aware of those briefings) and the US passed this intelligence on to NATO allies who have since briefed their leaders at the highest levels.

This isn't a fucking hypothetical.  The only reason you need it to be downplayed as one is that would be the only possible way to justify Trump's reaction to it.  But that is ass backward thinking.

And of course, the Administration has commented.  Trump himself has commented.  And he has called it a discredited hoax.

Which makes it awfully strange that we are briefing our allies on it...

[facilitatorn]

Trump himself is a discredited hoax. Trump’s vitriol is pure projection. When he comes out sounding pissed, the question to ask is what terrible fuck up or crime is he trying to cover up in the moment.

Also, you are a RACIST. Just need to remind people of an important fact.

It’s good you are starting to realize that being identified as a lead racist is an uncomfortable prospect. I suggest you carefully screen what you post for overt racism, both in your own words and what you quote and link to. This will help you earn the racist label less often.

If you can avoid spreading racism for a few years, though it may seriously choke off your volume of posts while you search for new topics to discuss, it may convince some here that you are starting to turn over a new less racist leaf.

I dont think so.  Nations share all kinds of banter, including unsubstantiated theoreticals

That the theory is out there makes us keen to it - should it happen.

McFarland laid it out for you pretty good as to why she feels Trump is being honest.

[kiidcarter8]

Trump's tweet today says he wasn't told about the intelligence because "they did not find this info credible."  Which is a lie.


A lie how?

That it WAS credible (explain) yet he was not told?

That he WAS told?

That it may have not been credible but he was told anyway?

McFarland was full of shit, and I told you why.

Russia doesn't have the money?  LOL.

WASHINGTON —  Members of Congress will hold a hearing Monday on the forcible clearing of peaceful protesters before President Donald Trump's controversial early June walk to St. John's Church for a photo opportunity.

The House Natural Resources Committee will hold its first hearing on the June 1 incident, in which peaceful protesters were removed from the park using chemical irritants, rubber bullets, shields and horses. Trump, who posed with a bible in front of the historic church along with members of his administration, drew wide condemnation for the force used on demonstrators.

House Democrats have pressed the Trump administration for information on its response to the protesters, who were cleared roughly a half-hour before what was then a 7 p.m. curfew in Washington, D.C. The Interior Department's Inspector General office has opened an investigation.

Former Trump Defense Secretary James Mattis called the event a "bizarre photo op" with the military in a scathing statement. Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley later said it was a "mistake" to participate in the walk to the church.


The Democrat-led committee said the hearing will focus on determining what happened in the events leading up to and after the clearing of protesters, whether excessive force was used, and what policy options are available.

Kishon McDonald, a protester who was injured that day by law enforcement, is expected to testify along with Amelia Brace, an Australian reporter who was repeatedly punched by law enforcement officers, and the Right Rev. Mariann Budde, the bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington, which includes St. John's Church.

A lie how?

He said "they did not find this info credible."  This is obviously a lie.  It was credible enough to share with allies.  And reporting is that the US is actively investigating attacks to see if they are connected.

So no such conclusion has been reached.

Here’s something else Saddam trump donald Bin Laden was briefed on only to be derelict in his duty and lie to the public about it,

LOL.  You have no fucking idea what kind of intelligence nations share with each other.

We shared the info with the UK, a key ally in Afghanistan, and Boris Johnson has been briefed, but you know, its all just hypothetical.

You are a pathetic lickspittle.

[NeedsAdjustments]

United States intelligence officers and Special Operations forces in Afghanistan alerted their superiors as early as January to a suspected Russian plot to pay bounties to the Taliban to kill American troops in Afghanistan, according to officials briefed on the matter. They believed at least one U.S. troop death was the result of the bounties, two of the officials said.

Yeah, that sure sounds like a discredited hoax to me.

No. Pointing out bambu's racism is an integral part of any rational response to most of his posts. While with others I usually simply point out an argument is racist rather than the poster, his racism is at the core of bambi's posts. Though I certainly understand why you would want a moratorium on people identifying racism when they see it.

It's not helpful.  And it's IGGYTOWN for a while when I see it (see ya, Lime).

As always the primary purpose of an ignore feature is to let the other person know that you are ignoring them. "Look at me over here! Can't you see me ignoring you? Pay attention to me ignoring you!"

 I do not care if you read my posts or not.

[bankshot1]

Trump hasn't even said that it isn't ok.



heh

Which part is the funny part?

What is funny about Trump's derelition of duty?

What's funnier ignoring the CV threat and allowing it to spread or ignoring the ever present Russian threat?

OR?

WHAT IS THE FUNNY PART?

Or are you just a fucking moron incapable of seeing the disaster unfold and the dangers it holds?

heh

Even Liz Cheney is demanding answers on this.

kiidcarter8 is so far up Trump's ass, he is willing to excuse some dead American Troops for the cause of his reelection.

Fusilli Kid

It was a million to one shot, Doc. Million to one.

Kid still laughing about dead Americans and the blood on Trump's small hands?

JFC

Kid-just wipe off your head from time to time, take a deep breasth, spray with Clorox and jam your head back up Trump's rump.

Enjoy the view for the next 5 months.
