The “turbulence” of 2020 was purposeful. Covid was so massively distorted for political ends, inducing mass panic, attacking Trump, and loosening election integrity rules that undermined the fairness of the 2020 election. Further, while the George Floyd police brutality was horrific, it was used to create months of rioting and anger, further promoting instability. In fact, the turbulence of 2020 was the end result of the panic of the elites win an outsider fairly won the election of 2016.
From inauguration weekend, when the “pussy hats” descended upon Washington, through the Russia hoax, the impeachment and the sheer lunacy of the press, the stage for 2020 was set.
I continue to believe that the vast majority of Americans are decent, although imperfect, like all human beings. Yet the elites constantly stir the pot to divide everybody else, on the basis of political tribes, race, and now, gender.
It occurs to me that all periods of instability, war, and death are brought about by the elite - the "thinkers" and politicians with big ideas, a lot of spare time, and zero experience in the trenches of real life. They say Satan makes work for those idle hands....
Ordinary worker-bees who are trying to raise their children and pay their mortgages don't have time for the Big Ideas, yet it is always they and their soldier-sons - and now daughters - who pay the price when those big ideas fail. Maybe, somehow, we should change that.
Yip 💯 Mike and you haven’t had to study 20 years of data to produce the crap Peter sprouted to Bari, and the brown nosing at the end, of what kind of an elite she is. You have posted it exactly as it unfolded. I’m just wondering what the elite are going to use this time to fix the 2024 election. Perhaps the truckers, electricians, plumbers etc will rise up and say it’s enough America belongs to all not just to the elites, it’s time for Biden and his cronies to go, vote them out please God!
Yip, but I think conservative voters have learnt what to do, although conservative voters have a lot against him/her. We have to tackle the Deep State +MSM, SM and all the misinformation that is circling America today. It’s not going to be easy but it can be done it’s going to be the most important election in our history.
It's already being fixed...The lawyer that laundered the server link and Steele Dossier into a five-year witch hunt against Trump is already leveraging donations from Democratic fat cats into lawsuits against a host of election commissions across the country. He is trying to delay or derail the vote integrity legislation passed by Republican states so that voter registration clean-up, federally mandated after EVERY federal election, doesn't occur. You see, he's counting on the ability of dead men voting twice to navigate the Democrat's way to victory even though the live and legal voters are turning them out of power.
Just an aside, it seems as though the right is in the ascendency in Europe after all these years of being lied to by our "governments".
Yip that’s the one good thing that’s happening in Europe - however, I’m really worried about our voting integrity, the Democrats are making sure we don’t have it for 2024, going to be a problem hope we will prevail LK.
I think the problem with most Americans of today, is they are lazy and complacent. Something really bad would have to happen to shake them our of their daze and off of their cell phones.....
I doubt it. Covid was "really bad" and instead of making us less complacent it only made us lazier, fatter, and more isolated. It started the death spiral where people realized they could live their lives without interacting with other humans; just get everything delivered and do all their interaction like this - online.
I can't imagine the type of catastrophic shake-up that would be needed to truly break the system. Some sort of EMP pulse that disabled all electronics on Earth? Multiple nuclear detonations on several major cities?
Gullible? Twenty-something college graduates: Whom did America defeat in the Revolutionary War? Answer: Russia. Who fought in the American Civil War? Answer: North America & South America. Who was the second U.S. President? Answer: Lincoln. Who was President during WWll? Answer: Kennedy. What is Memorial day? Answer: A holliday. What does it commemorate? Answer; I don't know. To a mid-fifties resident of the Land of La. Why did you vote to re-elect an obviously demented U.S. Senator? Answer: She'll be told what to do. How could you have voted for a vacuous individual first as States Attorney General & then Senator? "Oh, I think she's a terrific Vice-President". And so our choices will be Trump vs Biden-Harris & the winner will be chosen by Idiots, Imbeciles & Morons. The rest of us will have a good cry or pull out our hair.
Golly, then what does that make Biden? The guy who gropes women in public and smells the hair of innocent little girls. Oh yes, he's the shining star, but Trump is the "rapist." Take some L-Threonate magnesium and sharpen your brain, you banana-head.
Yes, Trump was accused of rape, and Biden was actually shown molesting multiple little girls and women, although the press chose not to cover this and the internet scrubbed most of it. With regard to Trump I am bothered more by his Supreme Court nominees, who caused the reverse of Roe.
Donald, to be fair & honest (if that interest you), Trump was not convicted of rape, from years prior to his Presidency. Sexual harassment, yes.
“But, but, but Trump whataboutism” doesn’t hold much weight with most Americans, after knowing all that Bill Clinton did while he WAS President + before, that was proven - proof positive.
I understand the WOKE Left (literally sick with TDS) won’t even acknowledge, let along talk about, and certainly not condemn Biden’s perverted sexual behaviors, even proven by his own daughter’s diary entries.
Ironically (can’t believe I’m saying this), but I’d take Bill Clinton back in a heartbeat, because America would be so much better off with Bill than the Biden Crime Family regime. “ Com on, man, no joke”
Projections, for a person who has lost the ability to think critically and logically, are almost always about the projector. One example is the current use of ”woke” (or WOKE - all caps emphasized). What the person usually means is that they consider themselves to be the real woken ones. It’s akin to children taunting one another with, ”I know a secret… nah-nahnah-nahnah-naaahhh…”
Another is claiming people have an illness called “TDS”. These people are usually very upset and dissatisfied with the current president, Joe Biden. Who, according to most metrics taken from the real world, is having a successful presidency. Yet, the projector will not acknowledge even Biden’s smallest successes. ”Irrational” is a great synonym for deranged.
“Joe Biden… is having a successful presidency.” How’s that? Have you heard about inflation? The widening wealth gap? Education? The border? Ukraine? Afghanistan? China? Hunter? Navy Joan? You know. All those things that are pushing his approval number to 40.9%-the lowest in modern history except for Carter?
“Most metrics”? “Smallest successes”? What would those be?
I can’t HD, Clinton was morally bankrupt his behavior in the OO was beyond belief. Can you imagine if Monica had laid charges of rape against him she probably would have been assassinated before it ever got to the courts.
You are right, Skinny! I was no fan of Bill Clinton, and less one for Hillary. But the Biden Crime Family Regime isn’t only morally bankrupt, it’s bankrupting our country - openly and without shame!
To be fair another, very popular and successful president was also accused of multiple rapes (surprised no one mentioned this and not saying it was right)
I have to say the "other president's" biting the woman's lip and holding on while he raped her was innovative. Reminds me of a tomcat. (In his case, that's a pretty good analogy, actually ....)
You clearly screwed up, yes. But you were willing to screw up (ignore/misrepresent facts) BECAUSE of your bias. That's the fun part of TDS. Everyone knows you have it, but you get to pretend (in polite society) that you don't.
Fair enough. I can assure you there was no bias in formulating that opinion. My god, man, you were virtually foaming at the mouth when you threw that original slander out there. You should be ashamed
"Original slander" and "foaming at the mouth?" I didn't bring up this subject, steven, perhaps you're thinking of someone else. My first comment was: "Yes, he was convicted of that, and the judge confirmed it just the other day." Not enough foam in that for a latte.
No. No damages were awarded for rape. Not in a courtroom. The article you read purposely slurred a specific charge and claimed it amounted to a public perception. But the jury in the actual case did no such thing. It was a different judge who rejected the argument for a new case. Still no findings in a courtroom for rape
This is politically motivated IMO. It's exactly what I said. He's conflating a charge with his own definition of publuc perception, what he's declaring to be "common." Moreover, we're still talking about a civil case and not a criminal one. Even in the civil case the jury did not return damages for rape. Frankly it makes the judge's impartiality suspect. He denied a new trial request by claiming that a charge the jury specically excluded amounted to the "same thing" as commonly understood. Frankly I think that dismisses the jury's findings
The thing is that Rats would raise exactly the same sort of objections to any prosecutions of Hunter or Joe. If my guy is being investigated it's a politically motivated witch hunt, if your guy is being investigated that's because he's guilty. Yes? As for me, not being partisan I have the luxury of being able to call a spade a fucking shovel which is what it is. Trump is perhaps the most loathsome person to ever hold the Presidency. Joe Biden is a corrupt, mediocre, dumb, career politician. See? I have TDS and BDS at the same time.
When the DOJ weaponizes itself with fudged FISA warrants, and investigations (multiple, lengthy, and expensive) into crimes they already know are false charges, engage knowingly and cynically in entrapment, magnigying process crimes, disregarding CIA input that one defendent investigated for spying was actually working for them-- well, then, we can call iteven in the "justice" subject here. But all we have right now are whistle-blowers testifying to stupefying passes given to the Biden side
The best the Yanks and do right now is the pots calling the kettles blacker. I quite agree with you that the deep state likes Biden best. What a shame that the best the GOP can do in response is to offer an outright criminal moron. There are decent people out there, pick one. But no, the Right must have the moron. As the saying goes, you get the leaders you deserve. America is no longer worthy of democracy and will probably lose it shortly.
That's why we're on Substack. It's the place for journalists who takes their jobs seriously as the 4th Estate, even when the govt is weaponized against it in so many way ways. We Yanks still got plenty of Bronx cheer to blow around too
Suffering from TDS? Not me, Bubba. Calling Trump a peckerwood who was impeached twice, found guilty (in the sense of civil court, not criminal) of sexual abuse, was criminally indicted three times, and will be convicted in all three, not a bit of that is TDS. It's Truth 101, something MAGAs would do well to read up on before the guilty verdicts are in and your world is blown to smithereens.
How do you define TDS? For example if I say that Biden is a corrupt and senile mediocrity, would that be Biden Derangement Syndrome? No? Just an honest appraisal of the man, you say? Well then, supposing I say Trump is a liar, a narcissist, a moron, a criminal and a philanderer? TDS, or an honest appraisal of the man?
I was driving up 95 from the Carolinas right after the inauguration. They were coming home from the Women’s March.
The rest stops were filled with psychotic women with pink hats, late model Subaru’s, mostly MA plates, all quite hideous! It was early exposure to Trump Derangement Syndrome.
interestingly i know two women, one from CA, one from NJ, who went to the pussy hat march in DC. Proudly showed off their hats online. Both now have trans kids and think that women can have penises and those who do should be allowed in women's spaces.
Post no more, feel desperate for those mothers, it can’t be a happy experience to happen to children. It’s just plain wrong. We need to stop this madness now!
The “turbulence” of 2020 was purposeful. Covid was so massively distorted for political ends, inducing mass panic, attacking Trump, and loosening election integrity rules that undermined the fairness of the 2020 election. Further, while the George Floyd police brutality was horrific, it was used to create months of rioting and anger, further promoting instability. In fact, the turbulence of 2020 was the end result of the panic of the elites win an outsider fairly won the election of 2016.

They will just repeat what they did in 2020. If the Republicans didn't learn, they will lose.
Yip, but I think conservative voters have learnt what to do, although conservative voters have a lot against him/her.

True - think that shake up is about to happen.

Indeed
Wrasse Legal? Crass Smeagol? Class Beagle?
I'm going to be thinking about this all day.
Glass-Steagall. As in, we need to bring back the Glass-Steagall Act to better regulate the big banks.
yeah. pretty much.
Well said, Mike. Accurate.
Perhaps a significant number of Americans are Ignorant, stupid or both!
I’d like to think not, the problem is maybe a gullible public who hopefully will wake up before the 2024 election.
Gullible? Twenty-something college graduates: Whom did America defeat in the Revolutionary War? Answer: Russia. Who fought in the American Civil War? Answer: North America & South America.

I guess I'm crying then. Hair is mostly gone.
You don't need to construct a straw man here. There are actual people much stupider than this.
Not strawmen. All quite real.
What can I post/reply to you, you have posted it all it’s a bit depressing but we have to soldier on, it will be good again in America!
In fairness, it seems the ”pussy hats” descending on Washington were pretty prescient, considering that we now know Trump was (and is) a rapist.
Golly, then what does that make Biden? The guy who gropes women in public and smells the hair of innocent little girls. Oh yes, he's the shining star, but Trump is the "rapist." Take some L-Threonate magnesium and sharpen your brain, you banana-head.
So true
Yes, Trump was accused of rape, and Biden was actually shown molesting multiple little girls and women, although the press chose not to cover this and the internet scrubbed most of it. With regard to Trump I am bothered more by his Supreme Court nominees, who caused the reverse of Roe.
Thanks for exposing your TDS.
Don't forget about Tara Reade and Paula Jones
Donald, to be fair & honest (if that interest you), Trump was not convicted of rape, from years prior to his Presidency. Sexual harassment, yes.

You are right, Skinny! I was no fan of Bill Clinton, and less one for Hillary. But the Biden Crime Family Regime isn’t only morally bankrupt, it’s bankrupting our country - openly and without shame!
Yes, much more acceptable to keep your sexual predations hidden on a private island with likeminded cohorts!
True...When did you come back?
With your daddy….
Jury did not award damages for rape. Charges mean something
That's actually a libelous statement. "Trump is a rapist" Has he been convicted of the crime of rape? No? Then you are simply lying
TDS
Okay, correction: sexual abuser.
He was not convicted of any such crime either. You're still a shameless slanderer. Your idea of "sexual abuser" is subjective, not factual.
But Steve President Trump is fair game.
To be fair another, very popular and successful president was also accused of multiple rapes (surprised no one mentioned this and not saying it was right)
I have to say the "other president's" biting the woman's lip and holding on while he raped her was innovative. Reminds me of a tomcat. (In his case, that's a pretty good analogy, actually ....)
Yes, he was convicted of that, and the judge confirmed it just the other day.
Civil courts don't convict people of crimes. A little education might help with your biases
I actually know the difference, and clearly screwed up while writing my answer. You are correct, civil courts award damages, not convictions.
But biases? No.
You clearly screwed up, yes. But you were willing to screw up (ignore/misrepresent facts) BECAUSE of your bias. That's the fun part of TDS. Everyone knows you have it, but you get to pretend (in polite society) that you don't.
Sir, that is the very definition of bias
"Willing to screw up . . ."
Your opinion about me is duly noted and rejected.
Fair enough. I can assure you there was no bias in formulating that opinion. My god, man, you were virtually foaming at the mouth when you threw that original slander out there. You should be ashamed
"Original slander" and "foaming at the mouth?" I didn't bring up this subject, steven, perhaps you're thinking of someone else. My first comment was: "Yes, he was convicted of that, and the judge confirmed it just the other day." Not enough foam in that for a latte.

Take it up with this judge, Janine:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/07/19/trump-carroll-judge-rape/
This is politically motivated IMO. It's exactly what I said. He's conflating a charge with his own definition of publuc perception, what he's declaring to be "common."

Save your breath, Janine. These people are suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Honest appraisal.
If you don't know the difference between the two, then you have TDS.
Ah! So anyone who sees both men for exactly what they are has TDS then. Thus TDS is a labored way of saying 'honest' and I'm proud to have it.
nobody thinks that badly, not even you.

I guess they really didn't understand p*ssies after all ....
😂😂clearly not Jim
They were trying to kill people?
I hope you've been able to get over it. Sounds awful. Remember the good old days when exposure was just Pee Wee Herman?
