  • This is one of the fishiest stories I’ve heard in a long time. Three guys, one from Brooklyn, another from Staten, and the last guy was/is in Iran and called in a whole plot over the phone to the FBI. As I understand it supposedly this Iranian is being protected by the government who he just betrayed per the FBI. And the guys in NY did not do any of the hits or kidnappings the Iranian claimed was in the process of happening. The Iranian only knew the New Yorkers because they all spent time together in state prison before he was reported. This sounds like one of those Swatter / revenge type of cases.





  • The Heritage Foundation has been around for decades, along with other think tanks that would publish playbooks just like “Project 2025.” That Project 2025 became such a big thing is because the Dems started to realize they were losing the Fuck Trump vote and wanted to rally the base without actually doing anything. Oh give the voters what they ask for? Nah give them more fear, that’ll rally them instead! Just look up their history, they have literally worked with both sides and are basically long winded op-eds The Heritage Foundation - Wikipedia

    I hate to use this term but you are literally arguing against facts with only feelings; feelings based on comments that arguably amount to mere puffery. My argument is that there is no good guys here, but it appears you are stuck on the point that Trump was worse for undocumented individuals because of feelings, rather than an actual objective measure like numbers.

    Obama was literally known as deporter-in-chief and he deported more in his in either of his terms than Trump did in his four years Source. But be careful some smart ass is probably gonna start screaming you can’t say both sides, and you’re a foreign asset trying to depress the vote because they can’t be bothered to read.





  • The problem is neither of the major candidates are even close to near my ideals. Like literally both sides are surviving on hate for the other side in my eyes. Like how many Kamala supporters you seen that aren’t essentially Fuck Trump, and how many Trump supporters you seen that aren’t essentially Fuck Kamala & Biden. I feel like I am taking crazy pills, because neither side is for the average person or even well liked. Meanwhile I keep being told, oh just learn to make a million concessions and support my candidate. When I resist, those same people claim I am some foreign operative who is trying to discourage voting, and if I am serious to revisit this issue next November like I have been for decades where each time I am told the same nonsense.




  • We clearly already failed. Despite there being better candidates, most of the country seems hell bent on supporting the status quo. “Law and order” crowd backing a felon, ACAB crowd supporting a prosecutor. Both of who are backed by the richest people in the country and spending over a billion each. The mental gymnastics to consider third party a waste compared to trading in all your morals for “lesser evil,” it is just astounding.
