That is not exactly what you said. Legal special council commented on instances of bad memory and he was cleared because of lack of evidence of wrongdoing not because he was examined by a medical professional and deemed not healthy.

 

Well I did put a question mark after my post. Come on man, that report ain't good for someone who's going for the job of President of the United States. It wouldn't be good for someone going for the job in a fast food restaurant. 

 

The man has heath issues. Its been plain for some time.

Putin has played a blinder, the hybrid warfare model they developed about 20 years back was all about disinformation, sowing division and amplifying extremist groups and voices in the enemy country.

 

Sound familiar? Both sides of the pond.

 

People go on about what happens if we go to war with Russia, but we have been, and we've lost.

I remember hearing something similar years back about how the army have been at war with Russia, but they’re only just catching up now with how.

 

You look at what they have done all over the ME/Africa with the guns for hire Wagner model they have reimagined imperialism in the modern age.

Was reading that they have tv shows in places like India which push anti western sentiment too. It's chess with these cats not checkers.

I was going to edit my post to say something like we (The nominal west) have been conditioning our citizens in binary oppositional positions to sow confusion and ensure compliance.

 

Russia turned it on its head and did that outwards.

 

One of the things they offered the Sudanese government was a Facebook disinformation campaign aimed at creating binaries and the illusion of opposition governance positions, it was part of a package they offered to all tin pot despots on the shale.

 

The American libertarian movement did it in the US by buying up loads of regional radio stations and amplifying the output to deliberately create an antagonistic listen, but with the ‘view of the Right’ presented as favourable and ‘the left’ as performative, confused and po faced.

 

We’re just lab rats.

Yeah, that’ll do it.

 

Its basically getting Ash Sarkar on GB News with the sole aim of undermining her and presenting her ideas as ludicrous.

 

They did a damn good job, as the current shitshow of a world testifies to.

Gavin Newsom is the only viable candidate surely. He's young, photogenic, speaks well enough and has years of experience running the world's fifth largest economy.

 

Most importantly, he doesn't look like a walking fossil.

 

 


The very same Gavin Newsom who has apparently fucked California and contributed to the current economic state (and other issues) of the US?

It appears he has, hence my repeated bewilderment why is this not solved the way it would be in any other job, by medical professionals. It's not like he is particularly popular ot irreplaceable, it's still mainly anyone (electable) but Trump.

Yeah fair enough. I'm surprised he wasn't sent out to grass last year. I think Jill (lady Macbeth) Biden might have had a say in keeping him on the front line.

Mad if true. These people are far right wing lunatics. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He is hilarious though. I remember his non answer when asked about his favourite bible verse. Where it was clear he had no idea about anything in the bible other than it featured a man called Jesus

Supreme Court decision today that will fundamentally change the way the US operates, federally.

 

Courts no longer have to defer to federal agency expertise; basically gives courts the power to decide things like food and drug safety, environmental regulation--you name it.

 

An amazing transfer of power; interested to see how the government reacts to it (not to mention all the crazy shit that happens as a result).

Maybe this partial immunity ruling that people assume Supreme Court handed out just to Trump can be used for good?

 

Justice Sotomayor outlined hypothetical situations where the concept of immunity could apply.

"Orders the Navy's Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival?" she wrote. "Immune."

"Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune"....

It's time for Sleepy Joe to wake up and start using his newly acquired powers.

Hmmmm.

 

Order Seal Team 5 (why should 6 get all the fun) to assassinate the six right wing Supreme Court justices. Immune.

 

Then appoint 6 Dem justices and get them to overturn the decision.
