u/Trotskyist 19h ago

Starting in roughly 2-3 weeks I expect a sharp uptick in election-related fuckery.

Basically, once we get to the point where the courts can't react fast enough to do anything about it before election day.

It's already starting with e.g. using homeland security funds for media buys and the administration sending checks to certain voters. These have to happen earlier because media buys are done in advance & it takes time to get people things in the mail.

I read a dogshit opinion article on The Hill today about the Brazilian election where the author claimed the previous president was arrested and sentenced unjustly, so I went and reviewed his whole coup attempt and following arrest and sentencing with so much whimsy and envy.

u/BetterEveryLeapYear 19h ago

No you don't even understand how deep it goes. It's not just major decisions. In this reality, Charlie Wilson had a dog when he was a 13 year old kid, the dog wandered into the neighbor's yard and the neighbor - a city official - killed the dog by poisoning it. Charlie drove almost 100 people to the next polls by himself and told them the story, so they voted for his opponent and unseated the guy. This was Charlie's first foray into politics.

He would go on to sit on the House Appropriations Committee, the Defense Appropriations Subcommittee, and the Foreign Operations Committee, which allowed him to almost single-handedly wage war against the Soviets in Afghanistan by supporting the Mujahideen via the CIA to whom he massively ramped up funding.

Without his dog wandering into his neighbor's yard, he never gets into politics, he never sits on those committees, Afghanistan never happens, Osama Bin Laden never happens, 9/11 never happens, subsequent wars in the Middle East never happen, and on and on and on... Maybe your gas price wouldn't be $6 a gallon today. All over a dog nosing about.

Republican Senator Britt, of Alabama.

That's her face as she was watched her republican colleagues falsely accuse Jack Smith of perjury in a partisan show-hearing only to have it immediately backfire when it turned out they had missed basic facts that not only debunked their claims that Jack Smith was collaborating with Fani Willis, but made it clear that Republicans hadn't even done a cursory check before making the accusation. He was in a different state at the time they claim he collaborated with her. On camera, at a televised sporting event no less. Oops!

Sen. Kennedy went on to bungle his partisan attack when Smith pointed out that, no, they hadn't targeted republicans. They had targeted numbers that had contacted Trump while he was engaging in plainly criminal activity, and those numbers all turned out to be Republicans, including people calling him to ask him to halt the attack on the capital.

Note that the republicans in the senate, despite voting acquit Trump on the technicality that they cannot impeach someone no longer in office, plainly stated that Trump was responsible for the Jan 6 attacks.

This entire thing is a show trial to begin with, but the incompetence on display here is staggering even for MAGA.

John Kennedy is a fraud. Everything about him is a Dixie play. Have you ever seen videos from his run as a Democrat? Sure didn’t talk all Foghorn Leghorn back then. But he got creamed in an election and figured pretending to be sweet home country pie would win him next time. And god damn, I guess it’s worked. This guy sucks.

Kinda wild how when you pull up information on criminals you find information on criminals.

He's dishonestly pushing the narrative that Jack Smith was going after Republicans without reason, when in reality (and Kennedy knows this as he has a law degree from Oxford) Smith got a warrant for communication with the president on the day he was committing all his very serious crimes, and waddayaknow!! All of the messages were with other Republicans! So they are of course trying to portray themselves as poor, poor liddle victims 🄺🄺 who would NEVER do anything illegal like try to overthrow an election.

u/No-Suggestion136 17h ago

Ooh, either this is fake or the video I saw earlier was edited to give a very different impression. It's almost like there are two different realities being created.

I do know one group has stated that lying is an acceptable strategy to get the outcome they want, and has done so repeatedly.

u/Dalantech 11h ago

The TPUSA morons with microphones have spun the whole thing into some kind of win for the GOP. Which fits, since they're playing for an audience that doesn't care about the truth anyway.

u/srz1971 16h ago

and in the lengthy testimony I saw, ā€œtheyā€ got caught lying right then and there, knew it so abandoned the question. Klobuschar knocked a little sense his way, not that it stuck. The chairman expected silentā€plead the fifthā€ compliance. Smith was having none of that. For all we know, this is one of those questions posed ā€œto him later in writing he would b expected to answer toā€. Direct closing quote from chairman after his little charade blew up in his face. The Aid’s videos are hilariously spot on.

Schmitt's aids held up a posterboard of the blown up texts for only a few seconds and then didn't have a copy on a standard page for him to look at. This was designed to capture a gotcha moment to boost his VP ambitions, and he didn't expect the lie to be debunked literally right away. The truth would have otherwise come out a few days later and been lost in the news cycle.

Why would democrats be being investigated for something Trump was doing? Is he fucking stupid?

u/MeanPiccolo803 21h ago

Sad thing is Trump was only bit charges completely because he got elected again. Otherwise he’d be the defendant. Now he’s ruining. The world and people like Jack Smith are having to answer to these idiots

u/paranormalresearch1 21h ago

Hopefully, the pendulum will swing the other way and we will get some people who will try to do good. No one is perfect but it would nice to have someone in office who is trying to do the right thing. They are going after Smith because he scares them.

The thing is he's a rock and roll attorney and prosecutor. He could've beaten back any legal attack they might throw at him, especially given the gang of incompetent nincompoops working at the U.S. DOJ these days, and Smith knows it.

Sen Kennedy is an embarrassment here. Trump was guilty. Yet they are too bloated with cash and greed yet they continue to blame the previous administration. Check yourself and your leader. He’s messing up the world. .

u/StormyPassages 17h ago

DJT's crime of stealing and mishandling classified documents included members of the House, so their telephone records were subpoenaed during his criminal investigation. The GOP is acting horrified about normal legal protocol, because they're protecting a felon, a rapist, a pedophile, a traitor, and the thief who is stealing your gas money.

Of course that jackwagon Kennedy was holding up one side of Scmitthead's fakenews billboard. He likes to think he's always the sharpest tool in the shed. He's half right-- always a tool.
