Thanks for that input, sardis. Were you also going to say that the Antifa/BLM body count stands at zero? Whereas KKKers stand in the thousands, Nazis in the millions. Does that make a difference to you? Did your family lose somebody fighting the fascists in WWII? Maybe not.

You guys don't like Antifa, fine. You obviously don't care for BLM for reasons that are black and white, no problem. That you appear to abide the white supremacists...what am I to make of that? Maybe you always have and I didn't notice.

You forgot to mention the millions killed by Socialists including the one in your avatar. But, I understand, free speech and committing murder is only ok to those who believe the same as you.

The guy in my avatar was a bona fide hammer and sickle commie. First Minister of the Cuban Communist Party to be exact. I stood next to his cutout at the Che Exposicion (he was a little guy).

Nevertheless, Antifa is not socialist, or communist, so the number zero stands.

If Antifa isn’t commie or socialist, what IS their political orientation? I’m pretty sure it isn’t conservative or Republican or libertarian.

We should ask Tree; he probably has insider knowledge.

How do you feel about Trump revoking Brennan's security clearance just b/c he sassed him? Wouldn't you think you'd want to keep a guy like that on the payroll?

I am wondering why an EX CIA Director, or pretty much any EX FBI, EX DOJ, Ex Intel official still has any security clearance after they leave office. When I had a security clearance in the Army, it was only to do my job. When I left the Army, my clearance was canceled.

I got another security clearance when I worked for the prison. But if I went downtown to the joint I retired from, and told them, “Hi guys. I don’t work here anymore, but I want to get on the computer system and use it to look at the PSI of a guy on the internet who goes by the name of ‘The Mighty Hedgehog,’” they’d throw me out of the building, and rightly so. I don’t see why Brennan or Clapper or Comey or Page or Strojk or Yates or McCabe (or coming soon, Oher), or any of the other Deep State criminals should get any special treatment that I wouldn’t get.

You really think a contract employee working as a pastor (or even an enlisted pastor) should be treated the same as the head of the CIA or FBI when it comes to security clearance (or anything else)?

Andy Cuomo joins Trump campaign....


"We’re not going to make America great again. It was never that great."

Remember when oprama revoked the security clearances of everybody who had a hand in the ginned-up War of Iraqi Freedom? Yeah, me neither.

Now Nixon's Enemies List - I do remember that one. "How to screw with the people who criticize you" - yep, that verbiage accompanies the names. Another "Witch Hunt" a different "Deep State".

American newspapers today preaching to the 66% citizenry who already value a free press. The remaining third prefer their news emanating from the deity in the WH and his surrogates.

Umm, I wasn’t on contract. I was full time salaried.

And yes, I compare myself to Brennan, Comey, Strozk, Page, McCabe, et al, and favorably so. Unlike those clowns, I never used my official position to commit crimes like they did.

Your existence is a crime against humanity...

RIP, Aretha Franklin.

Seconded. She always had my R-E-S-P-E-C-T.

A great scene from a great movie, where Aretha stole the show:

So many great lines in one scene, like, “They look like a couple of Hasidic Diamond merchants...” and “...slidin’ around with your white hoodlum friends...” and “Don’t you go blasphemin’ in here!”

A great performer and a great loss.

So hundreds of newspapers agreed to editorialize against Trump. How is that different from every other day?

Tick, since you mentioned a poll about the press, here’s one, and from Gallup no less:

Americans Trust in Mass Media Sinks to New Low

https://news.gallup.com/poll/195542/ame ... w-low.aspx

Two year old article, prof. 3300+ Trump lies ago.

Okay, here’s one from 2018:

“More than 3-in-4 Americans believe that traditional major TV and newspaper media outlets report “fake news,” including 31% who believe this happens regularly and 46% who say it happens occasionally. The 77% who believe fake news reporting happens at least occasionally has increased significantly from 63% of the public who felt that way last year.”

https://www.monmouth.edu/polling-instit ... us_040218/

It’s not surprising that Americans are more distrustful of the media than they were two years ago, since the media has been even more ridiculously partisan and insanely biased than they were two years ago.

I assume you're including Fox News as "media"?

pretty clear the steele dossier the basis for the counterintelligence probe into trumps campaign is garbage

georgie P and carter p[age being the instruments the Russians were using to sway an election is weak as hell too

the road through strozak and bruce ohr and comey and McCabe include brennan

hell half the fbi leadership is being fired for trying to sway and election

done on brennan watch if not his full cooperation

ohr testifies on 28 august lets see what he has to say

We already knew that Ohr’s wife worked for Fusion GPS, one of the pass through’s for the fraudulent pee pee dossier while he was working for Mueller. Ohr never disclosed that raging conflict of interest on the disclosure forms.

We also already knew that Ohr was in regular communication with Fusion GPS outside his role on the Mueller investigation. Ohr’s investigative misconduct was so egregious that even the hapless Mueller fired him.

Now we know that Ohr was in regular contact with Steele, the author of the fraudulent pee pee dossier, even after the FBI fired Steele as an informant because he was so unreliable and was leaking to the press. From the emails and texts that were finally pried out of the FBI’s white-knuckled grip, it’s obvious Ohr and Steele were BFF’s. Ohr even expressed concern that their dirty relationship might be discovered. It just was.

Despite all the felonious investigative misconduct by Comey, McCabe, Strojk, Page, Yates, Ohr, and who knows who else, we are supposed to believe the Trump-Russia investigation is completely legitimate. This is what a witch hunt looks like.
