The White House staff are all Traitors! Covering up for this debacle so that Putin and (redacted) can run this country.
(redacted) = a certain prime minister with International Criminal Court arrest warrants for crimes against humanity.
The part that should terrify people isnât the smell. Itâs that this is who Republicans want handling national security, foreign policy, and nuclear codes. With that saidâ¦thatâs disgusting.

I suppose "Halfway Post" is supposed to be a parody on "Huff Post", but if you're not sure what's being parodied, it can be hard to know it's parody.
Even in the Lounge.

(16,599 posts)It is not that I mind looking stupid..I would be confused if I was the type of frantic/daft Type A obsessed with always being right about everything, since I am about as knowledgeable as Trump..But it is a lot of time wasted in faking embarassment on autopilot in unfair terrain because you are distrait and angry.
I have noticed over the years that Trump
and I have some similarities in terms of knowledge and skills. The similarities end there.
It used to bother me, till I did this sophisticated calculation and figured out that I am not President of the US and it is okay to use even non-racist Trumpy brainwashing free animal id from the left to defend your turf (my home, street, devices). If a lefty animal id could be a thing ;-/..
I got that far..some of these guys like to make nicer or at least harmless people feel or look stupid. It is all a bit catty and petty and not worth it since it takes from ire and time that must go into disarming and kicking out the worst creeps first, then the next set of creeps and so on, leaving only what one would truly ignore as petty or truly accept irl adjusted for the world of 2008 or earlier..pre-FB/Googles nuisance encroachment. Nor would a series of small creeps be okay. All bad..

(39,273 posts)Malcolm Nance is another one that I take with a grain of salt, now (I unfollowed his account). I have seen him posting misinfo/disinfo a few times.

(16,599 posts)He is kind of a sleazy, spook propagandist imo. I have a lot of sympathy for Zelenskyy and Ukraine and feel sorry to see a handful of ex intelligence types cynically use Putins war for the mercenary rather than explicitly far right wing of the national security state.
Spooks of a type, like corporations, are not left, right or centre imo. They want to divvy up the spoils.
I feel very resentful of any group that used or uses people as pawns from any angle using the net. Thats incitement. I dont mean
Nance specifically so much as anyone who is a disinfo agent to any extent.
I am a civilian catlady - the piddly activist type and very angered by left underground instincts being hijacked by spooky disinfo agents and at a great cost to the left.
