Signalgate

Y'all are just ignoring the biggest political scandal since Nixon?
This cabinet is almost comically incompetent. I'm sick of this timeline/simulation. Gabbard lied to Congress and nothing will happen. Disgraceful.

Hilarious! Ditto Puddy Tat!
The questions the Dems should be asking is, "If this skank "journalist" thought this was a "classified" session why didn't he disconnect?" And, why did he wait until the night before the Senate hearing to release the "War Plans", er I mean, the "Attack Plan" as they had to change later as a week had elapsed.
Enjoy your chubby. It's over for the rest of us.

No one is above the law - is a bedrock of the democratic system - that was tested and found wanting in America.
All this is a corollary to that. No one should be surprised.

What is most surprising about this new episode is how juvenile these characters are. Looking at the screen shots of this signal text chat, and looking at how our Secretary of Defense, our Vice President, and the other high level officials use emoji’s like a bunch of high school frat bros, makes it very clear to me that this is not a group of very serious people, that’s more scary than whether some idiot copied into this classified chat, a reporter, which is by itself a very serious breach of trust.

Vaccines shrink your balls and make you interfile. The covid vaccine is probably more damaging than all the others. People born in the 2000s are probably getting screwed with vaccines.
So i would say Kennedy is very competent.

Don't worry about vaccines making you infertile, man, I don't think any woman wants to procreate with you anyways.
Log in to vote
Puddy, I would certainly argue plenty more women want to procreate with me, over you, in fact, even if you were taller and in better in shape, I would venture they would pick me over you.
Disregarding everything else, you want to wipe out half the world, I dont, so that kind of repels a lot of women out there.
A hardcore right winger like yourself will also struggle among strippers and escorts, unless you are careful to hide your absurd political views. Strippers and escorts tend to be more on the liberal side of things. I can talk the talk with a liberal, even agree on some key things, whereas you cant.
Also i like the assumptions and highschool virgin level thought process. You assume my concerns regarding infertility are related to whether or not women want me. It seems like your life revolves around not getting any women, but for me, buddy, the first issue with being infertile is just general health concerns, not “i get so many women, bro”. Dude, no women want you outside of perhaps some right wing women, and indian women who literally go for any guy with light skin lol.
Im better than you, my parents are better than yours, i would guess the last 5+ generations of me are better than the subhuman, depraved, warmongering clan you come from

Ah yeah, even college girls are more often liberal than not. The only right wing guys getting women are guys like dan bilzerian, andrew tate, and a few others on the fringe. Right wingers generally get nothing outside of either paying for pussy whilst keeping their political views under wraps, or going to some hick area in a southern state. Theres countless celebrities, athletes, musicians, etc getting women and none of them are conservative lol.

Especially if its a foreign one who wants papers. You should stick to your bottom of the barrel indian women so theres more women for the rest of us guys.
Also i like how you backpedal into equating anti vaxxing to basement dwelling, but when i bring up kyrie irving youre like oh no, hes not a basement dweller, only you! Lol.
I also like how you have such extreme trust in the medical for profit industry that you think things like vaccines are beneficial and normal.
Finally, show me a single right wing celebrity that gets women. All the anti vaxxers get more than the right wingers. What do you think of RFK himself? You think trump made a mistake with him? RFK appears in better health for his age than anyone else associated with trump. Its clear his anti vaxxing and other behaviors have helped him

Liberal hateclick bait. Far more and worse scandals around Clinton (Epstein, Lewinsky, rape accusations, Whitewater), Obama (Fast & Furious, Benghazi, IRS, NSA PRISM, illegal alien caravans), and Biden (erasing southern border, Afghan pullout, 5,000 pardons plus Hunter, the orphaned bag of coke, secret files in the garage, hidden and suppressed cognitive incompetence, influence peddling, his SecDef going AWOL, his DoJ targeting political opponents, harassing and coercing social media and legacy media).

Anyway on another thread, gammanu and another guy, supposedly both on the right, are calling for deportation of anyone who speaks anti israel or anti ICE rhetoric.
But nobody is calling to deport Jan 6 protesters who had 6MWE symbols on their outfits. What gives?
Log in to vote
^ "Deport Jan6 protesters..." At least you called them Protesters and not Insurrectionist; that's a good first step to recovery. BTW. these protesters were not illegals so deport to where? The destructive and violent ones should be prosecuted, not the ones just walking around.
Visa and Green Card holders are not American Citizens. Support a terrorist regime while here on a visa or GC, you get deported. If African Americans were being treated as the Jewish population, we'd have The Summer of Love V2 on 'roids.
You need to tweak your meds.
Log in to vote
^lol not illegals? Permanent residents arent illegals either are they?
You are basically looking for semantics and loopholes when the truth is this.
Youre okay with a citizen, conservative, white/latino Jan 6 protester making anti Jewish statements.
But your not okay with an immigrant, arab, liberal making the same statements.
That means your issue has absolutely nothing to do with people cheering for Hamas, on the contrary, you just want immigrants, arabs and liberals removed from the country. But if someone cheers Hitler, your good with it because they voted trump. Youve got to step back and think about how dangerous that mindset is. You basically are okay or not okay with something purely dependent on the political views of the person doing it
Log in to vote
Oh yeah, even if your not into the semantics and change your mind and say that the guys wearing 6MWE clothing should also be deported, at that point that means your not a constitutionalist or pro free speech. So your either entirely against free speech or you just want people deported for being arab or liberal, even if they are here legally. You literally are claiming permanent residents are illegals, lol. I hope you dont go around attacking these people but i can see youre salivating at the thought of it. Its laughable to consider yourself pro life when you want to wipe out half the world
Log in to vote
You dont get it. “Supporting a terrorist regime” is something thats criminal even if american citizens do it. You are attempting to violate the right to free speech via conflating cheering for a terrorist group with supporting the group. Supporting means you are funding or recruiting for the group, not verbally cheering. Its also hilarious because israel itself is a terrorist state but you have no issue with supporting that. You basically are arguing that only jews should get rights under the constitution not arabs. You believe in a race based rewriting of the constitution
Log in to vote
@rickmicrdong "Lol not illegals? Permanent residents arent illegals either are they?"
Green Card holders, aka Lawful Permanent Residents, are not American Citizens. And, if they lied to get a GC, or become a serious problem like supporting terrorist orgs, they can be booted. The fun part, the GC'ers never read the "fine print. Gov't provides piles of "Guidelines" and "Welcome" booklets, learning what consequences could be is important.
Under Biden these LPRs were given unfettered behavior. Now, not so much. They can be deported back to the country of origin.
It was OK when the FBI investigated and knocked on doors of uppity, not violent, parents who were PISSED OFF at Progressive School Boards, and investigating Catholics as they are (mostly) against abortion, except Biden and Pelosi.
When laws are enforced it amazes me how "shocked" the left becomes. I find the level of stupidity and lack of understanding interesting. Instead, Progressives expect their "Manchurian Candidate" judges to wake-up to suppress and become political, not judges supporting the Constitution.
Whenever DHS ships an illegal to the El Salvador prison, they best be shipping just the bangers, not "just" illegal aliens, we have a different trip for them back to their homeland.
Log in to vote
Mogul you dont get it.
Supporting a terrorist organization is something even american citizens can be prosecuted for, arrested, jailed, and even tortured.
You keep dodging the point.
Okay, greencard holders arent citizens sure, bur they arent illegals either. You seem to think everyone is either citizen or illegal.
You had a poor upbringing, with subpar, racist parents who failed to teach you basic values.
You keep talking about laws, leftists, progressives, biden, trump, etc.
But you dont support the constitution to begin with. You dont support free speech, free religion, free press, freedom to protest and believe whatevrr you want.
I think you fail to understand that free speech actually means you have the right to cheer for, and celebrate violent groups, racist groups, evil groups, even terrorist groups. The reason people can go around wearing t shirts with the term 6MWE on them is because we have free speech and free expression.
The constitution doesnt mention anything about certain races, beliefs or religions being banned.
But according to your warped belief system you are basically saying its okay for MAGA protesters to make pro hitler, pro Nazi, anti jewish statements, but not okay for pro palestine protesters to do so. That means you essentially want free speech only for conservatives, not for liberals or arabs or pro Palestine protesters
Log in to vote
Also, what law are residents under? Youre basically attempting to argue green card holders dont have rights or they have some different set of rights? If thats the case they should be made aware of that because i doubt people would willingly come to this country if they knew they wouldn’t have basic rights. In my opinion though i think youre one of those guys who wants to go around killing immigrants because you consider them inferior. I think you celebrate things like the el paso walmart shooting where the guy according to you was probably just killing illegals and gang members

Xenophobes should note that in general our constitutional rights apply to "people", not "citizens." Like, this is the literal text of the 5th amendment:
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the militia, when in actual service in time of war or public danger;
nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb;
nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself,
nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
Notice it doesn't say "citizens" anywhere, but "people".
Anyway, I'm shocked, shocked that Trump cult members in this thread want to derail it so we don't talk about Signalgate.
I'm not sure what it shows more, the rank incompetence of the right wing extremists surrounding Trump and running our government, or their willingness to break laws, but I can't say I'm surprised. Put a bunch of miscreants and scoflaws in powerful positions, what would you expect?

Let's get this straight. You keep copying what others say, and try to reapply it elsewhere. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but in your case it is the symptom of a weak and fragile mind.
"Unserious people" is the term coined by Republican pundits to describe Harris and Walz, as they cackled, mugged, and flubbed their way through a disastrous campaign.
The last democrat administration played fast and loose with the lives of our people in uniform and 182 people were killed, including 13 Americans. But Biden didn't have time to acknowledge their sacrifice and kept checking his watch.
The fact of the matter is that someone erred by adding a reporter to this chain. I hope it was a low level staffer, but it should result in a dismissal. it is not, however, the disaster that you and the leftists want it to be. You just want to see Trump fail and America with him. Your desire for the failure of an administration tasked with fixing everything YOUR leaders screwed up and detroyed in America is indefensible and un-American.

"But Lankford said calls for Hegseth to resign over the issue were "overkill".
"I think he just joined an encrypted app," he said. "I don't see it as much of an issue because, again, they all believed that this was a closed circle of conversation."
Lankford added: "I don't see this as an issue of leadership."
Waltz was unable to explain how Mr Goldberg came to be on the chat, but said another, unnamed contact of his was supposed to be there in Mr Goldberg's place.
Trump had told NBC News a day before that he would not fire anyone involved in the group chat, and that he still had confidence in Waltz.
"I don't fire people because of fake news and because of witch hunts," he said."
Personally, I believe it deserves a routine root cause investigation and nothing more.
