    Carter was going to destroy America. So was Reagan. Bush? Dukakis?

    The best part? This time, we really, really, really, really, really mean it! We were just being hyperbolic last time, but this time, it's super duper extra serious.

    At least there's no gun controversy. Obama already took all of those, amiright?

    Leaders of China and Iran (death to America) are active. The Russian Kremlin is "live". Even Dictator Maduro from Venezuela is still Tweeting. Makes you think, doesn't it?

    Yup.

    No "disputed" tag from Twitter on Hillary's tweets.

    [​IMG]

    And no warnings on Gwyneth Paltrow’s tweets about her ‘vagina’ candles even though one exploded in UK woman’s home and came dangerously close to setting the entire room on fire.

    [​IMG]
    Still no response from Twitter, no indication that they will put warnings on tweets about her exploding products.

    They seek to institute two standards of consequences, one for them, where they suffer no consequences for anything and another for their political opponents, where they tip toe around carefully and are repeatedly banned and censored for not quickly and enthusiastically shouting the approved lines with enough passion.

    Perhaps they can have everyone start inform on their neighbors whenever they sense free-thought "sins".

    YTD Twitter Stock price down $16.57 and dropping further in after hours trading.

    It looks like America and even the World, isn't too impressed with these censorious clowns.

    Since the election, all the Democrat leaders and their Left State partners in global tyranny (Media, Corporations, and Academia) have simultaneously decided that the time is "now" to start the domestic war against people who disagree with their totalitarian hold on power. It's been a long time coming, but they aren't even trying to hide it anymore.

    "Domestic terrorism" legislation is their final move to declare "check mate" on the global Monopoly board. We'll see high-profile political prisoners before they start "managing" the average citizens.

    Yeah, I heard Drunken Hillary prattling on about this, and now the fake news is running the same crap and trying to attribute it to unnamed intelligence sources who committed a felony by leaking classified information to them? Here is a trick. When they don't name the source, the fake news clown going on about it fantisizing and pretending it's sourced information rather than their own fabelizing.

    THIS IS NORMAL: FBI vetting Guard troops in DC amid fears of insider attack. “U.S. defense officials say they are worried about an insider attack or other threat from service members involved in securing President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration, prompting the FBI to vet all of the 25,000 National Guard troops coming into Washington for the event.”

    This is what happens when you define half the population as enemies of the state.

    And nothing says “normal, legitimate election” like a swearing-in behind 12 feet of razor wire and 25,000 troops that you’re not sure you can trust.

    UPDATE: Related:

    [​IMG]

    But is it all for show?

    [​IMG]

    If so, I’m not sure this is sending the signal they think.

    These clowns are using the National Guard for political performance art.

    But, since they control all the news platforms they think they are the only ones that get to tell the story, so they feel free to make up whatever they want.

    Problem is, I don't think many actually are buying what they are peddling.

    The coordinated slaughter of parlor, you are correct, has awakened the Sleeping Giant and if they are no careful, the awakening giant will soon be filled with terrible resolve.

    "Nobody finds this odd."

    LMAO

    It's appalling that Trump and extreme supporters of Trump have denied us a peaceful transfer of power.

    I watched Jimmy Carter welcome Reagan to the WH. I haven't missed one since.

    For the first time in my life; that won't happen.

    There is literally only one person to blame for that.

    Placing the national capitol under martial law for an inauguration is what they do in country's with dictators and despots.

    Still....

    Wonder when The Elites are going to dump Biden and installa Kamala? Interesting that they are already allowing the truths about Biden seep up to surface. He won't last long. He's always been known as one of the dumbest men in D.C.....and a major liar who makes up fake stories about himself.

    Winning by the skin of your teeth in some states is normal.
    Biden won three states decided by less than 1%, Georgia, Arizona and Wisconsin. Total 36 electoral votes. Without those three states you'd have a 269-269 tie.
    2016 Trump won three states decided by less than 1%, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. 46 electoral votes. Without those three states, Hillary wins 278-260
    2012 Florida was the only state decided by less than 1% which Obama won. 29 electoral votes. The loss of Florida would have made no difference, Obama would have still won.
    2008 McCain won Missouri by less than 1% and Obama won North Carolina by less than 1%. A change in either on wouldn't have made a difference.
    2004 Kerry won Wisconsin, Bush won Iowa and New Mexico by less than 1%. A change in any of the 3 wouldn't have made a difference.

    And so on with Florida in 2000. Now one can't complain about three close state losses in 2020 and accept the three close wins in 2016. These things happen all the time, it's the norm. You always have 2-4 states that are within a single point.

    What this person said is absolutely terrifying. And not just because what he said is terrifyingly totalitarian, but because he's apparently too stupid to realise that if we give ourselves that kind of power, we also give it to our enemy.

    We're doomed. We've been doomed since every democratic president in 250 years, but this time, I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really mean it!

    Super serious. We're totally doomed.

    and that includes Bill Barr who was as loyal to Trump as one can be. When he won't play along, that should tell the Trumpers something, but sadly nothing can deprogram them at this point

    and where will the independents fit into your scenario?? Perhaps they won't 'hate' or 'gush"......and just try to deal with the facts ( or simply approve or disapprove).

    Perhaps too.......the word 'hate" is over used & abused now. People can disapprove of someone 's behavior and not hate them.

    things seem to have gotten far too emotional and inflammatory. The calm of reason must be part of the solution.

    Social media has its own problems. People seek the opinions / "news" that fit their existing belief systems.. & preconceived ideas ...so it becomes self reinforcing. ....and closes the mind to other view points that might be very different ,but just as valid. Maybe it is old fashioned: but folks don't have to agree, but they should respect each other. We are all human beings and that seems to be lost in the current critical phase of this country. No one is perfect and no one is absolutely right or wrong. Perhaps we have stopped listening to each other.

    "That day" when Russian businessmen were more in favor of free speech and open competitive markets than a totalitarian oligarchy of American CEO's. Hmmm.

    It's quite comical to hear this kind of hysteria over and over and over.

    Russian DDos guard, also known for hosting 8chan and Russian government sites:

    https://www.pcmag.com/news/parler-is-back-online-thanks-to-russian-tech-company-ddos-guard

    Seems like Trump fans should be quite at home there, their leader can only get loans from Russian banks, and they can only get their social media hosted by Russian webhosts. America first, isn't that right, Trump patriots?
