Aside from the fact that TBITSP is aimed at 10,11,12 year olds and Maus is aimed at 16 years plus.

Well, if - like the Republikkklans - you're a bunch of racists, you probably want to keep the population ignorant of what other racists have done, historically.

I know, what on earth was Whoopsy Goldberg thinking with her ill thought out comments about the holocaust not being a racist issue.
 
GoFundMe cancel donations to the Canadian Truckers:

'We now have evidence from law enforcement that the previously peaceful demonstration has become an occupation, with police reports of violence and other unlawful activity.'

Fair enough you may say. That is until you learn that they allowed donations to the violent CHAZ/CHOP (Capitol Hill Occupied Protest - the clue is in the name) set up in Seattle, whilst others dedicated to the violent BLM organisation still remain in place.

So what is it GFM - do you actually really take a stand against fund raising for causes associated with violence and other unlawful activity or just those whose causes you happen to disagree with?
 
Just watching Louis Theroux’s forbidden America.

Cor blimey guvnor, the world is turning upside down.

Hot on the heels of the paradox that in the light of fake news and propaganda channel CNN audience collapsing, more Democrats actually watch Fox than that former doyen; we now hear that most Democrats want Hillary Clinton investigating following the revelations of the Durham investigation.

Apparently paying people to hack the computer servers of your political rival, continuing when he becomes sitting President, in order to plant lies about him being a Russian collaborator is a step too far even for them.

Don't worry though Hills, apparently Biden needs to sign off on any criminal prosecutions if it's to escalate beyond the usual 'lessons will be learned' burial service.

No doubt whilst hacking the Presidential computer, at some point you stumbled across Biden's daughter diary where she records the inappropriate showers he took with her as a girl, or perhaps the excerpts from Hunter's lap top where he picks up the family cash from Chinese officials and Eastern European businessmen to fund the presidential campaign. If it's still looking dicey, you could always remind him of his racist opposition to busing policy or eulogising for KKK grand wizard Robert Byrd.

You're a very lucky girl Hills, that it's a Democrat regime headed up by one huge sleazeball you will have massive dirt on, or you would be looking at some serious jail time. I always wondered what Trump meant when he said he would send you to prison, now we know.

Whining about fake news and then repeating Trump conjecture verbatim which is absolutely not what that Durham filing says at all is pretty funny. Borderline unhinged to then talk about it like this.

Well we'll just have to disagree. No fake news there, just the stuff that the likes of CNN, MSNBC etc. would rather not talk about as it a) embarrasses them and b) they don't want the details to get out as it doesn't suit their narrative.

If anyone is bothered people can check out the respected bi partisan Durham report and make their own mind up. If they're still in any doubt I also recommend reading a summary of the highly enlightening Mueller report and associated shenanigans/review that went with that; which the propaganda outlets also went very strangely quiet about when it actually transpired they'd thrown the full weight of the FBI and others from within to frame a President - and still failed.

These are official reports plus further investigations in the case of the Mueller report, it's agenda, not flat earth conspiracy theories. Much as CNN et al would love to dismiss them as such and make them go away, they can't. They will just have to suppress and limit damage as much as they can. No change there.


Just a light hearted p. take on the salty tears of the media propagandists.

I mean your spin on it (verbatim from Trump/Fox) is nonsense. There is no agree to disagree. None of the info released in the latest filing was new, and none of it alleges anyone 'hacked' anyone, despite you saying that above.

There is literally no evidence that Hilary Clinton 'hired someone to hack the presidential computer' as in your post. If you want to back that up with evidence from the Durham filing that'd be fun, I'll wait. There is also no evidence of what your bastion of acceptable news, Fox News, claimed, which is that e-mails or texts were intercepted.

The story basically is:

Tech researchers, hired to look at DNS data and who had a legal right to access it (and in fact, were hired to look for suspicious activity prior to Trump being in office when Obama was president) passed on data to a cybersecurity lawyer who worked for a law firm (Perkins Coie) that did work for the Clinton campaign.

The controversy/the part of the filing of interest is that Sussman (the lawyer) is alleged not to have told the FBI/CIA he worked for the Clinton campaign when he passed the suspicious data on (it seems he didn't actually work for them at the time, and that the Russian activity could be traced back to pre-Trump regardless - but he might have wanted to make Trump look bad which is about as bad as this gets/ a conflict of interest accusation). No one involved from the tech firm is accused of anything illegal or any sort of 'hacking'.

There is no grand Hilary Clinton paid hackers conspiracy. To claim Hilary Clinton would go to jail for this but won't because of Biden is absolute drivel. It is not agree to disagree, you are factually wrong. Complaining other media won't report on stuff that is made up, is also pretty silly.

If you can explain what bit is 'hacking' and how that isn't 'fake news' or how I would prefer to put it, bollocks, that would make your case stronger. This seems to be a strong and balanced explanation of the facts of the case, and why there is an element of shadiness, but also why stupid takes like the above should be ignored.

If you wish to dismiss the source (I know little of him but identifies as a libertarian so not exactly your socialist fake news media) at least point to what is factually incorrect as that seems like an accurate summary based on everything I can find on the Durham filing.

Durham filed court papers Friday in which he alleged that a Clinton campaign lawyer enlisted a tech executive to help “mine” internet data from locations including Trump Tower and the White House “to establish ‘an inference’ and ‘narrative’ tying then-candidate Trump to Russia.”

I believe the relevant nub of the matter when you cut through all the spin and camouflage is right there. The bi partisan investigator has filed papers before a court that Clinton's campaign spied on a presidential candidate competitor and continued to spy on the President when he was in office. You do understand that the word 'mine' is diplomatic speak for hacked don't you.

Of course Hills will have put a fire break between her and the lawyer stooge, but join the dots. I somehow don't think the gentleman got out of bed one morning and independently decide to hack the competition's servers. I would suggest to think that would be rather naive.

What is the other stuff that is made up and the media won't comment on. Are you saying that Kamala Harris didn't call Biden out live on TV (before she got the VP ticket) about his racist opposition to busing that directly impacted her childhood?

Are you actually saying Biden did not read the eulogy for Robert Byrd or are you suggesting Byrd wasn't a known leader of the KKK?

Have you not read the emails taken from Hunter's lap top where he is the front man/go between to collect the cash for his Dad from China and Eastern Europe basically for a bit of consultancy work? Wow, 31M dollars worth of consultancy, he must be pretty good at whatever it is he does.

You do know the FBI raided the home of New York Time's journalist James O'Keefe in an attempt to recover the diary where Biden's daughter wrote about his inappropriate showers with her as a child? Oh and it does exist, the pages have been published, the lack of a denial from Biden has been deafening and Joe sent the FBI round to try and get it back rather than pull the guy up for libelling him. That's a lot of evidence to suggest not fake news or do you disagree?

Raids on journalists doing their job - does that concern you, it does me - yet tumble weed from most of his profession who really ought to be screaming blue murder at such outrageous government interference with the free press.

You can take it as unhinged, I'll counter it is a pretty good factual snap shot (barely touches the surface of the material that is out there) of the so called free press failing to do their job and by act or omission doing their best to give a free pass to some pretty unsavoury politicians for their own ideological reasons.

If it were some far right or extreme left fringe publications that were doing the ignoring or agitating I would get it. That it is swathes of main stream media outlets that are wilfully burying these stories and instead asking Biden banal questions about what ice cream 'he has had today' during his very rare media interactions, is frankly astonishing.

Do you think it is more important the US public should hear about ice cream choices from their politicians, or their press should be asking pertinent questions about factual and sinister areas of concern?

I also don't see why a president who brazenly ordered the raiding of a journalist's home over a personal matter wouldn't hesitate to use executive orders (to shut down) or 'pardoning' powers to help out an old mate who knows an awful lot about him. It's not like it's never been done before, Trump himself is guilty of this very dodgy practice.


A pardon is a government decision that allows an individual to be exempt from the legal consequences resulting from a criminal conviction. The power to grant a pardon, which is an inherent right of the people, is vested in whomever they choose.

State constitutions usually stipulate where that pardoning power lies. The pardoning power for a federal crime, on the other hand, is vested in the President of the United States.

We’ve already seen Trump grant presidential pardons to several of his closest associates and allies. From Joe Arpaio, the former Maricopa County Sheriff, to Michael Flynn, his former National Security Adviser, they all pretty much received a free federal get-out-of-jail card.

You can throw loads of other stuff at it, and talk about loads of other stories, but you don't understand the Sussman story. You've called it hacking servers again - its not, and no one is calling it that who understands the story. Stop being wilfully ignorant.

Company monitoring dns queries passes on dns queries in legal manner is clearly not hacking. The filing doesn't say anywhere that Clinton or a lawyer paid the company for anything yet you asserted this as a fact.

Believing other stories and ranting about them doesn't make your false claims about this filing true, in a post where you bemoaned fake news.

(Also I'm definitely calling that post unhinged. Asking if I am actually saying stuff unrelated to the post about a different democrat? What are you on about? I'm literally challenging one stupid post you made, not talking about every fox news talking point. It's not been reported on in your false twisted way because it isn't the story you say it is, but it has appeared in a lot of media).

We're going round in circles. I've expressed my views on it, you've outlined yours. I respect that you've dug down into some level of detail to explain your interpretation even if I interpret the connection between the lawyer and Clinton far more significantly and with suspicion unlike yourself.

As for the 'other stories', I believe they need to be aired regularly to highlight the dubious behaviours and shoddy interactions involving politicians and the media.

There are/have been quite rightly plenty of postings on Vital's threads about corrupt practice and the hypocrisy of politicians like Trump and Johnson. It's well covered and that's a good thing, but it is absolutely not alright that other reprehensible politicians like Biden and the Clintons appear to get a free pass, so I don't hesitate to shine a light on them.

I expect to see the depths that some politicians will stoop to, but I have to raise an eyebrow when I see the media ignoring real events, when any journalist worth their salt would ordinarily make their career on the back of running them.

I admittedly do it deliberately and often, to try and keep people awake (Does that make me woke according to the original use of the word :grinning:) to the level of dishonest and selective propaganda that we are subjected to on a daily basis.

People can agree, disagree, see it as irrelevant or groan and ignore when they see I've posted yet again. I've clearly got far too much time on my hands and quite enjoy it as a bit of interest to keep my mind active, so I won't be railing it in I'm afraid.

We aren't going round in circles though and this isn't an agree to disagree situation. You still don't understand seem to understand tbe actual story properly- as shown by your suggestion we disagree on the lawyer and Clinton's involvement. There is clearly some link - but the fact is, even if the lawyer was Bill Clinton or even Hilary herself, the dns data was obtained legally and had already been covered before this filing. I don't even like the clintons or Biden, but you are repeating a falsehood.

Claiming you are upset about fake news then saying hillary paid to hack Trump's computer is just laughable. We aren't disagreeing, I am saying you are repeating a lie and you are not doing anything to refute that but just rambling about other stuff.

The rest of your post is fluff. You aren't shining a light on anything by writing stuff that is untrue; yes politicians might be bent on either side of the political spectrum and yes more people that post on this area of the forum are more left leaning than your point of view. But that doesn't excuse posting stuff that is incorrect and has been debunked, and you don't do yourselves any favours. Perhaps if the outlets you do like reported this story accurately (I.e., there might be something morally questionable in non gov actors sharing this information even if its legal and was legally obtained) rather than HILARY FBI HACK PRISON, then perhaps you would be qualified to rant about other media sources. But you're actually the problem you claim to rail against...

If you really insist on the integrity of the facts I'm saying that your source and interpretation is different to mine and we are indeed arguing about the facts. The New York Post reports that Sussman was lying when he says he wasn't paid directly by his client the Clinton Campaign team and that is why he has been charged with making a false statement to federal agents - some link huh!

When the payments are made on Hillary's watch, from her actual campaign team directly for her benefit, I'm factually quite clear where the responsibility and buck stops, you appear to interpret that differently. Funny that she didn't sack anybody in her team for this outrageous breach.

Put it this way if Clinton HQ didn't want the info. why did they pay for it. Having paid for it why did they use it. Are you seriously suggesting that Clinton did not know about the false information, it's source, how it was obtained and it was all done without her blessing and collusion. I would say factually that Sussman has well and truly been hung out to dry by Clinton and is taking a very big one for team Hillary.

Legally you may be able to interpret Sussman as not being linked to Hills but once the money is paid by her team, as head of that group that is game set and match on her factual connection.

The lawyer has pleaded not guilty to the charge of making a false statement to a federal agent.
Durham’s motion reportedly alleged Sussmann “had assembled and conveyed the allegations to the FBI on behalf of at least two specific clients, including a technology executive (Tech Executive 1) at a U.S.-based internet company (Internet Company 1) and the Clinton campaign.”

Records showed he “repeatedly billed the Clinton Campaign for his work on the Russian Bank-1 allegations,” which involved an investigative firm, a tech executive, cyber researchers and numerous employees at internet companies, the motion reportedly stated.

In 2017, Sussmann provided “an updated set of allegations” about then-President Trump’s Russian connection to another government agency, the motion said, according to the outlet.

Among the accusations leveled at that time was that suspicious DNS lookups by Russian-affiliated IP addresses “demonstrated Trump and/or his associates were using supposedly rare, Russian-made wireless phones in the vicinity of the White House and other locations,” the motion reportedly said.

The allegations “relied, in part, on the purported DNS traffic” that Tech Executive-1 and others “had assembled pertaining to Trump Tower, Donald Trump’s New York City apartment building, the EOP, and the aforementioned healthcare provider”.
