What do I post that was a lie ?

Keep spinning your wheels that nothing happened


the tragedy of Jan. 6 is not just the assault of that day and the lies that produced it, but what it signals for days to come. As our first president warned when explaining his intention to relinquish the office, “cunning, ambitious and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the Power of the People, and to usurp for themselves the reins of Government; destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.”

I am very familiar with that quote by Washington. I've used it in the past. And I firmly believe that it forewarned of what various men have tried to do, and most successfully so by the Progressives who thought the constitutional system, the "very engines" that Washington helped to bring about, were an impediment to the unlimited system of administrative government they have to a great extent established--just a few more judges and a few more elections away from finishing the job.

Trump, as flawed as he is, was a temporary setback to their vision of how this country should be governed. Which is why even the Progressive lite "Conservatives" who were being exposed by him wanted him gone as much as the Dems did. Even Pete F, who nods toward the Constitution occasionally, and quotes some Founders every now and then, actually wants the growth of central ruling power which is anathema to the limitation by which the Constitution shackles government and to the separation of powers it provides.

As well, the various unconstitutional administrative agencies that are beneficiaries of the growing centralized power, especially including the security agencies, also wanted Trump gone as he was the greatest threat to them since Reagan and especially so since Kennedy who was a direct threat to the CIA before he was assassinated.

As well, the removal of Trump and maintenance of the growing central government power was preferred by most of the crony capital corporations who benefit by cooperation with, and even capture of, the administrative state and the thousands upon thousands of regulations it imposes on commerce that help eliminate smaller businesses to the advantage of large ones, which then progressively get larger by internal growth and the merging into centralized corporations. This includes most media corps.

As well, anti-Trumpism was promoted by an academia that once had been comprised of and run by those steeped in fields of knowledge who had a fervor for teaching their learning to students who hungered for it, but now had grown into corporate like organizations whose mission is more the gaining of money than the imparting of knowledge. And is run and guided by "administrators" who are expert, not in fields of academic knowledge, but in recruiting and finding financial resources which include continuous funding by government whose subsidization of tuition creates artificially high demand for college degrees which is an excuse for raising tuition prices. Which pours more money into the coffers of administrative academe and solidifies its symbiotic relationship with government and guaranties its compliance with government demands regarding the what, who, and how to educate, including the various norms that government wants to be indoctrinated.

So now even the original Progressive notion of government being basically unchained and with the unlimited power to do whatever it decides will be its version of benefit for the people is being corrupted into the fascistic centralized corporate State.

And people wonder why, in spite of all the really good sounding rhetoric of Progressive politicians, the "income gap" continuously expands and the number of small businesses keeps shrinking.

Imagine having a president who took 𝘑𝘦𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘗𝘪𝘳𝘳𝘰 seriously.

“There were times the president would come down the next morning and say … ‘Judge Jeanine thinks we should do this.’”

Another little meaningless funny by Progressive Big Government Pete.

Steve Bannon: “But the oligarchs’ day is coming. Remember, we’re going to turn all the social media companies into public utilities — public utilities, and get like a 7% return … and the public has to have a voice in the control of it.”

He’s a nationalist *and* a socialist.

National. Socialism. That has a certain ring to it but I can't put my finger on it...

you’re making a false equivalence between his original

Maybe wdmso found a needle in a haystack.

Then last fall, the University of Virginia Center for Politics released a poll finding that a majority of people who had voted to reelect former President Donald Trump in 2020 now wanted their state to secede from the Union.

here is more gold for Ya..

I guess this was also promoted and caused by academia

you guys are running out of people to Blame for Trump Behavior and his attacks on our democracy...:kewl:

watch out for Mirrors! you may actual see someone from that Poll :kewl:

Progressive Big Government Pete playing his signature deceptive verbal tricks. Here he implies that public utilities are socialist. In other circumstances he claims we are not a socialist country . . .yet we have public utilities.

And he has claimed that Nazis, especially American ones, are right wing groups--his version of "conservatives." Yet here he is able to morph his notion of right wing conservatism (Nazis) into left wing socialism,

So, at will, he can either call Nazis socialists or conservatives, or he can contradict his own notions that we are not a socialist country. Or go the other way if and when it is necessary.

He is a master of not calling something by its proper name. But by whatever name that suits whatever lie he promotes as truth. He often resorts to tricky lies, but touts truth and honor, and castigates Trump and Trumpists for being liars.

Are you saying that polls are propaganda?

guess you think that was my line sorry to disappoint

its another one of detbuch Manifesto's

anti-Trumpism was promoted by an academia that once had been comprised of and run by those steeped in fields of knowledge who had a fervor for teaching their learning to students who hungered for it, but now had grown into corporate like organizations whose mission is more the gaining of money than the imparting of knowledge.

You left out the "anti" part, which changed things a lot.

Detbuch said anti Trumpism was promoted by academia, you said trumpism was promoted in academia. So you actually posted the exact opposite of what Detbuch said.

Just a typo, I make TONS of typos and you don't, so no biggie, but it was funny. Lighten up man!

Wayne, do you deny that academia has a serious left wing bias? Are you seriously going to deny that?

always misses the context...

it’s sort of a liberal requirement that one have no sense of humor, especially about one’s self.

the laughs are all on our side.

What’s funny is neither of you had even read Detbuch post to start with….

And the right has been attacking academia

Why conservatives hate college
The right's decades-long war on academia and "liberal professors" is about defining an elite "populists" can oppose


At the beginning of the 2010s, 58 percent of Republicans believed that colleges and universities had a positive impact on the course of the country, according to the Pew Research Center. As the decade nears its close, that number has fallen precipitously: It now sits at 33 percent, with the majority of the drop occurring from 2015 to 2017.

The biggest drop 2015 to 2017

Shocking fits Trump and the MAGA movement time line

For the second time, is there a significant left-wing bias in academia, yes or no?

Almost seems like you're avoiding that question for a specific reason.

College, in terms of being required for all kids, is over-rated, getting more so. I spent time at Tufts (elite school), Southern CT State University (not a good school), and UCONN (OK school when I was there). I saw the whole spectrum. I wasn't extremely impressed with any of it.

It's wasn't really about getting educated even when I was there, and education is far less important today. It's an ungodly money suck, and a system to indoctrinate kids with liberalism, to help produce the next generation of liberal zombies, who can't think for themselves, and for damn sure have zero ability to defend their beliefs with any cogent thought whatsoever. To produce kids who will say "the 55% of blacks who aren't vaccinated...must be Republican!", even though nowhere near that many blacks are republican. But they'll say it anyway, because it serves their master.

It's designed to produce kids who shriek "liberalism is great!", then they stick their fingers in their ears and yell "la la la la!" so they can't hear any opposing viewpoint.

The radical conservative extreme, that college has no value, is equally false and stupid. But college is nowhere near what it's supposed to be.

The Trump phenomenon exposed a lot of the BS that had crept into our institutions and culture. The pushback against that was extreme which even more delineated how far we had been transformed, and the direction we were heading--and is on track again now that Trump is gone and the left is back in power.

Not a single Republican has displayed the courage to stand up to a defeated president to protect America's right to vote — not one.

Rep. Jim Jordan declines to say if he's closed the door on cooperating with January 6 committee

Another GOP coward

After spending two years probing a 2012 terrorist attack on a U.S. diplomatic compound in Libya that killed four Americans, GOP Rep. Jim Jordan of Champaign County on Tuesday issued a blistering critique of how the Obama administration and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton handled the tragedy.

Jim J. accused the Obama administration and Clinton of being "so blinded by politics" and the desire to win elections that they disregarded the government's basic duty to "tell people the truth."

the GOP House committee probe into 2012's Benghazi attack was especially lengthy. At two years and four months, it was longer than Congressional probes into 9/11, Watergate, the JFK assassination and Pearl Harbor.

But Jan 6th. They want to wish it away and refuse it ever happened :rotflmao::rotflmao: Such Patriots

Spoken like a true Trump supporter It’s odd you admit your your fondness of this former POTUS who was willing to overturn an election .. and you claim you support Originalism not sure how you square that circle

Jim conservatives love attacking the other. and academics are just on the Republicans base list like unions or gays or BLM or Antifa or Transgender people .. and even the brown POPE

Keep enjoying your victimhood :kewl:

PS. Republicans are still a bigger obstacle to vaccination than Black Americans

because the pandemic has been called a pandemic of the unvaccinated, there has been an effort by those on the right — where vaccine opposition is higher — to try to drag the left — specifically, Black Democrats

Sounds like you shocking

But of course you were told to be outraged you did zero research your just a GOP supporter parroting GOP talking points Shocking

New data continues to undermine that argument.
Consider new polling from the Pew Research Center. It tracked vaccine uptake over the course of the year, finding that Democrats and Asian Americans are the groups most likely to say they have received a dose of the vaccine. Black Americans are the racial group least likely to say so, though that figure is about equal to the percentage of Whites who say they’ve received a dose. It is also higher than three groups that are largely Republican: Republicans and Republican-leaning independents, rural Americans and White evangelical Protestants.



https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...ack-americans/


Dan Patrick: "Democrats like to blame Republicans on (low vaccination rates). Well, the biggest group in most states are African Americans who have not been vaccinated. The last time I checked, over 90% of them vote for Democrats."

PolitiFact's ruling: False Let me guess fact checkers there is a significant left-wing bias in fact checkers. yes or no?

https://www.statesman.com/story/news...on/5601748001/

I get weary of ripping out the lying words you keep stuffing into my mouth. I supported Many of Trump's policies, not Trump as a person. I don't know Trump. Neither do you. Pundit opinions, political smears, media analysis, especially about controversial people are usually fraught with bias and lies--positive or negative. High tone intellectual sounding opinions in Salon, and The Atlantic, et. al. were easily seen through. There was a point, early on, when I began to like how he fought back against the continuing avalanche of manufactured accusations and how he exposed various political hypocrites, but that pretty much wore off as it became as sketchy and corrosive as the attacks against him.

I "support" him as a person only in how I support anyone who is falsely or unfairly accused--especially when it is meant to destroy him--and for the typical dirty political motive of gaining power.

You don't know me, nor do you believe what I say. So you make stuff up about what I think or am "fond" of. You rarely debate at any length what I say or what I link.

So you spout the narrative about "overthrowing" an election. The choice of word is a non-objective politically loaded accusation, not merely a neutral unbiased description. It's so embedded in your brain that it's not worth debating or discussing with you.

If you wish to point out what was unconstitutional, or unoriginal about what you consider Trump's attempt to "overthrow" the election, that could be an interesting discussion.

I think it's safe to refer to it as a pandemic of the vaccinated at this point....

I’m no attorney, but this whole Republicans forging fake documents in five different states to try and certify Trump won 2020 election seems more than just a little bit illegal and also a lot insane.
I’m sure there’s no coordination and that they’re all formatted the same is purely coincidental.

I'm sure they will all go to jail as a result of the investigations by the democrats running congress and the partisan democrat running the justice department, you have nothing to fret about really....relax #BareShelvesBiden

Pressed on his election lies, former President Trump cuts NPR interview short :thanks:

But You like other Trump supporters don’t get to separate Trumps deeds into convenient packages to excuse away his behaviors than claim he’s a poor victim or you like his policy’s. But your trying very hard .. this is not about knowing Trump personally it has no bearing on the conversation


I "support" him as a person only in how I support anyone who is falsely or unfairly accused--especially when it is meant to destroy him--and for the typical dirty political motive of gaining power.


So let me get this correct what happened on Jan 6th supported and encouraged by Trump and those around him

Yet You see people looking to hold Trump accountable. For Trumps actions and behaviors before during and after the elections and today as (non-objective politically loaded accusation)


But Trumps action do not raise to be classified as “typical dirty political motive of gaining power.”

Interesting

Classic denialism it runs deep with a few here .. and now you like the rest of the GOP and conservatives crowd are stuck on nick names with an unwillingness to help their fellow Americans via policy or any other methods improve their lives Yelling inflation while sitting on their hands in the hopes it gets worse and they will get some votes

America 1st What a joke

Why don't we get to do that?

It's exactly what democrats do with Bill Clinton, Hilary Clinton, and Biden.

But as always, it's OK when you do it, only problematic when we do it.

My God, when Bill Clinton was president, all I ever heard from the left was "ignore his moral lapses, his policies are what matters as president". And I agreed with that, and still do.

Can you be consistent for three seconds?

Who here is excusing his behavior? His personal behavior is inexcusable. But his policies, well they worked. I know you don't like to have to think about this, but a record-number of Americans said they were better off after 4 years of Trump. Gallup does that poll every 4 years, and never before in the history of that poll, have more Americans said they were better off after 4 years of a president, I think it was 56% or 58% who said they were better off. And that was at a bad time on the pandemic.

What does that poll mean to you? I'm curious to know.

Trump did nothing to help Americans. Lower taxes, generationally low unemployment (record low for blacks), stock market soaring, not getting us involved in questionable wars, criminal justice reform, school choice, increased funding for black colleges, working with private sector in creating infastructures for covid testing and vaccines, none of that helped a single American.

Why are Biden and congressional democrats polling so badly, if they clearly want what's best for all Americans?

Other than the stock market (which is obviously doing great), what other metrics are there that would indicate things are better now than they were a year ago?

Inflation is now at a 40 year high, but you don't want to mention it. Because you don't care about reality, you care about what helps democrats.

The reality is, the country doesn't buy your nonsense that conservatives hate everybody, and that conservatism can't be of any value. Only the fringe left, well represented here, believe that. Look at how republicans do in state and federal elections across the country. How do you explain that?

We had the biggest jerk, by far, to ever serve in DC, in Trump. Yet after he got creamed in 2020, the GOP still has almost half the house, half the senate, and a majority of governorships and state legislatures. Every single poll indicates the GOP is going to do well in November. How do you explain that?

And again, which states are people leaving, which states are they moving to? I forgot, they move because people want low taxes, and that has no connection to politics at all.

Trump Warns GOP to 'Solve the Problem' of Our Elections, or Risk Losing
Former President Donald Trump says "RINOs" and "losers" want to solely focus on future elections, instead of correcting the 2020 pandemic election ills.

The sitting president who got the most votes in history — and lost — warns those so-called Republicans in Name Only who do not learn from the "corrupt election" are doomed to repeat it.

people will still vote for this man then say they love America in the same sentence ... is it wrong to call that an oxymoron

For the 100th time, it's interesting how you bash Trump for making false claims about the lection being illegitimate. But when Democrats say the same thing (which they've said in some way for each of the last few elections they've lost), you could care less.

Did you once complain when democrats called Trump an illegitimate president after 2016? Or when they asked electors not to vote for the winner in their states? Or when they challenged the elections in several states with no valid reason, other than they hated who won?

All of that was OK with you. Just harmless stunts when democrats do it. end of the republic when orange man does it.

Glad to know that in your view, the law is applied on political lines. That has been quite evident for the past 5 years.

They need to be more worried about the investigations being done by Federal and State attorney generals.

Because anyone who prepared or submitted, or aided, abetted or conspired in the preparation or submission of, false electoral-vote certificates, would presumably be guilty of a host of federal and state criminal offenses.

In an interview with far-right cable channel One America News, Trump said he received the booster and has seen politicians get asked in interviews whether they’ve also gotten a third shot.

“They don’t want to say it because they’re gutless,” Trump said. “You gotta say it, whether you had it or not. Say it. But the fact is that I think the vaccines saved tens of millions throughout the world. I’ve had absolutely no side effects.”

Setting aside that I never said that Trump was not capable of dirty political tricks to gain power, you may find the opinion of your imaginary me to be interesting. I find your perception of most things you've expressed on the political forum to be leftist media regurgitation.

And I've found that any invitation I've given you to truly discuss actual constitutionalism and the Progressive threat to it, is basically given short shrift or avoided. And, the real me, believes that is the pertinent political discussion to be had in our time. This focus on a constant delusional bickering about personalities (accurately or prejudicially portrayed) and which unconstitutionally based policies are the best or worst is the continued path to the destruction of our Republic, and the continued path to the replacement of the United States into the unitary United State. I think we ought to be discussing whether or not we should be protecting a system of limited government with separation of powers at the national level, and separation of powers between the national and local levels, and the ultimate separation of power between government and the individual.

As a little attempt to start such a discussion, I asked "If you wish to point out what was unconstitutional, or unoriginal [as in originalism] about what you consider Trump's attempt to "overthrow" the election". As I suspected, that is of no interest to you. It seems to be good enough for you to just say or imply that his actions are unconstitutional.

best headline of the latest bad week for brandon..33% approval and 40 year high inflation

Old Man Yells at Cloud

The more Biden shouted and sputtered yesterday in Georgia, the more America went ‘Huh?’

the most underreported story in my opinion, polling shows democrat support is deteriorating for hispanics.

if hispanics turn right, man oh man, watch how the left changes their tune on immigration. they’ll build a wall, put in a moat with sharks, deport every last one of them, put them on a one way, high speed train to Tierra Del Fuego.
