Oh give me a break. You can make the (wrong) argument that she shouldn’t be put through right now, but trying to criticize her is asinine. She was extremely impressive at the hearing, sad that this what you’re bringing. Fantastic judge and more than worthy.

I was wrong. I think the mic mute favored Trump big time. That was a very bad debate for Joe Biden....he was destroyed. He looked very weak and rattled quite often. Welker showed some bias, interrupted Trump more and seemed to always give Biden much more time at the end to respond, but wasn’t as bad as I thought she’d be. Better than Wallace at least.

Laptop from hell....it’s real people. Everything Trump said about the info on it. If anyone out here is actually open to the idea and not stuck in Dem fantasy land, research it yourself. It is NOT Russia disinformation. That is an absolute joke. Again, if someone wants to say I know it’s true, I don’t care, and still want Trump out...so be it, but dont live in denial to these lies of Joe Biden. He is as crooked as it gets.
But hey, maybe Biden will win and we can finally eliminate the oil industry 😂

But hey, maybe Biden will win and we can finally eliminate the oil industry 😂 How did the laptop surface? A computer repair shop owner in Wilmington, Del., named John Paul Mac Isaac has said Hunter Biden left a damaged Apple computer at his shop in April 2019 and asked to recover any data. Mr. Isaac said in an interview with The New York Times last week outside the shop that he is legally blind and could not be sure whether the man was Hunter Biden but asked his name to fill out a work order, and the man identified himself as Hunter Biden. Mr. Isaac said the man came to his shop twice but never returned to retrieve the computer or an external hard drive on which its contents had been stored. At some point, he decided to examine the material, calling it “alarming” and “embarrassing” but declining to discuss specifics. Mr. Isaac also said he made a copy of the computer’s contents. Just so I can make my point very very clear to you and your tightly wound tinfoiled head - my real name is Hunter Biden, yes the real Hunter Biden, the son of VP Joe Biden How can you tell it is the real me, just ask again I will tell you. See what I did there, you can't see me so you have NO F'''ING IDEA WHO I AM !!!! |

Former Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg was back on Fox News on Thursday night ahead of the final presidential debate, where he faced questions about the recent stories alleging misconduct by Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden. "It's not even clear what [they're] claiming it adds up to," Buttigieg said of Biden's opponents and the new claims. "They're just kind of saying, 'oh, there are questions.'"
Host Bret Baier jumped in to clarify that the unsubstantiated allegation is that Joe Biden was "discussing all of his business deals" with his son.
"If they want to make this about the business deals of a government official, let's talk about the president of the United States having a secret Chinese bank account," Mayor Pete shot back. "That's not like something somebody said that used to work with somebody related to the president in email, that's a matter of documented fact. And they won't even tell us what bank it's with!"
Buttigieg concluded, "I'm pretty sure that bothers Americans a lot more than what [the Trump campaign] is trying to whip up for the last 12 days of this election season." Watch the zinger below.

Welker showed some bias, interrupted Trump more and seemed to always give Biden much more time at the end to respond, but wasn’t as bad as I thought she’d be. Better than Wallace at least. What I find interesting is that people who intend to vote for Trump think Trump won, and people who intend to vote for Biden think Biden won. I don't think very many people are going to change their mind at this point. That the post-debate polls indicate a big win for Biden speak volumes - that Biden is likely to win the election at this point. Forget all the noise - this election is coming down to the economy and COVID-19. The President and his administration did a terrible job and now our economy is in shambles. People are out of work. They've lost businesses. And almost a quarter million Americans are dead. No laptop exposing potential Biden corruption is going to matter - especially when the populace thinks Trump is as corrupt, if not more corrupt. No "Joe Biden is a trojan horse for the socialists" is going to move people who actually wish that were the case. The USA has handled COVID-19 the worst among developed nations - the only other nation that has handled this nearly as bad is Brazil - and people want change. At this point, Trump's path towards reelection is extremely narrow. He is farther behind in polls than he was in 2016, and many more people are motivated to vote against him. It's going to be interesting to see what happens with the Senate. |

It's going to be interesting to see what happens with the Senate. What post debate polls are you referring to? CNN? I mean, I hate to quote Joe Biden, but c’mon man if it’s that. The polls I’ve seen had Trump winning easily. As far as election polls, I pretty much dismiss them for the most part. FiveThirtyEight gave Hillary a 71% chance of winning, Reuters was 90%, NY Times said 85%.....that tells you all you need to know on their reliability. But IF you are going to believe in polls, there was just one that came out yesterday that showed a 46% approval rating of Trump by likely black voters. You can’t choose to dismiss that because it doesn’t fit what you want to believe. If that is even close to being true, Trump will win. So how can you determine which polls are more reliable, and which are trash? I choose to be skeptical of all of them. Trafalgar was one of the only ones that predicted Trump in 2016, and I believe they currently have Trump narrowly winning again. Who the hell knows, I wouldn’t be surprised with any outcome...Trump landslide, Biden landslide, close..hard to predict with the mail in voting. |

cliffs - You have no idea how brainwashed you are. Keep on reading NY Times and watching CNN, man. DNI John Ratcliffe has said it is not Russian disinformation, contrary to what Joe Biden will have you believe. Names involved in the emails have verified them. You are the one with the tinfoil hat on believing it’s Russia. Didn’t Hunter Bidens lawyers even contact the repair shop trying to get the copy of the hard drive? I’ll have to research that again to confirm....but why would they do that IF IT WASNT HIS LAPTOP.

Fake news at it again!
The article goes on to claim the guy who got charged is far right. Of course, this is being done so people label him a Trump supporter. We saw the same damn thing with the kidnapping plot of Gretchen Whitmer. The boogaloo bois are anarchists. They protested WITH BLM, (just like Antifa), they hate cops. Far right?! Try far from right. The dishonesty of the media is so frustrating. What’s even more frustrating though, is when people don’t see through it.
So let’s recap the current narrative of the msm-
ANTIFA - doesn’t exist
BLM- only peaceful protests
Proud Boys (or Poor Boys if you’re Joe Biden) - white supremacist Trump supporters
Boogaloo Bois - Violent far right Trump supporters
Group involved in Whitmer plot - violent Trump supporters
QAnon- dangerous Trump supporters

Pretty obvious how this will all end.
I'm talking in the context of biden winning, which I think is likely but, personally, still wouldn't be surprised if trump does. I'd put it at around 70-30 favouring biden.
Anyway, it will end with the republicans saying covid was forced on them by "Dems" and that's why both the handling of that and the economy was a disaster.
(Never mind that trump inherited a healthy economy and, arguably, did nothing to improve it, or even did some very short-term boosts that were already back on a downward trend by 2019...)
As always, a huge amount of Americans, especially republicans, are very insular and lacking in analytical ability, and won't see how covid has been handled elsewhere. (You know, consistently, clear messaging, with citizens who actually listen to sense and care about other people.)
America will be more divided than ever following this election. Possibly even with further violence. Snowflake far right goons will feel they have more right than black people to complain and protest about stuff. (When they obviously don't.)

For the next two weeks until Election Day, expect allies of Donald Trump to repeat the same refrain: but his emails! So far, though, the revelation of Hunter Biden’s private messages and photographs has been a dud of an October surprise, largely because the story’s credibility is so evidently flimsy. It’s also confusing—both to Trump supporters who’d like to make hay out of it and to anyone else trying to understand how this whole saga came to be. How did a laptop supposedly belonging to the former vice president’s son end up in a Delaware computer repair shop, then get to Rudy Giuliani, then arrive at the New York Post? What does Steve Bannon have to do with it? Why did it make the entire right wing mad at Facebook (again)? Read on.
How did all this start? There’s a hard drive, and Hunter Biden did what on it?
The New York Post claimed, in a story published last Wednesday, to have obtained a copy of a hard drive from Hunter Biden’s laptop that contains emails revealing his foreign business dealings, along with personal photos. According to the Post, someone abandoned the laptop at a computer repair shop in Delaware, and the data on the hard drive subsequently reached the FBI and Rudy Giuliani, the former New York City mayor who is also a lawyer for President Donald Trump. Steve Bannon is said to have notified the Post of the hard drive’s existence, and Giuliani then supplied the tabloid with a copy

I’ll have to research that again to confirm....but why would they do that IF IT WASNT HIS LAPTOP. You make it so easy because of the blinders you wear. Oh and show me the proof of Biden's lawyers contacting the BLIND owner about the laptop. Intelligence Experts Suspicious of DNI Ratcliffe On Laptop Story
The chief of the U.S. intelligence community appeared to pre-judge the conclusions of an active FBI investigation.If the FBI is still working to determine whether a dubious New York Post story was the fruit of a Russian disinformation campaign, then why did the nation’s top intelligence leader denounce the notion on TV this morning? That’s what some veteran intelligence professionals are asking after Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe told Fox Business that the Post story and a laptop that purportedly belonged to Joe Biden’s son are “not part of some Russian disinformation campaign” and “The intelligence community doesn't believe that because there is no intelligence that supports that.” “If the issue is being investigated as part of Russian interference into the election, it's hard to believe it would be wrapped up yet,” said Matthew Miller, who led the Justice Department's public affairs office from 2009 to 2011. “The whole thing is utterly confusing, which is why Ratcliffe shouldn't be weighing in at all. If there is an investigation, it should be conducted quietly and the government should speak with a credible voice when they have something definitive to tell the public. Obviously, Ratcliffe isn't a credible voice, and it seems pretty clear he's just playing the political role he was appointed for in the first place.” The DNI “violated several cardinal rules” Monday morning, said Ned Price, a former CIA intelligence analyst who served as a National Security Council spokesperson and as a Special Assistant to President Barack Obama. “Among them, he inserted himself in the middle of a partisan issue, he at the very least lent the appearance that he was boosting the President's campaign, and he appears to have gotten ahead of intelligence analysis and law enforcement investigations.” Price noted that even if Ratcliffe’s account is true and the intelligence community has not yet found evidence directly linking the reported laptop contents to a hostile foreign actor, that didn’t mean that such evidence didn’t exist. “That's to say nothing of a reportedly ongoing law enforcement investigation into the matter, which no federal official should ever prejudge or prejudice, as Ratcliffe appeared to do,” he said. Elizabeth Neumann, who served as a Department of Homeland Security official during the George W. Bush and Trump administrations, said that it would be highly unusual for such an investigation to conclude so quickly and that there were just too many unknowns to be able to make an informed comment on the origins or the veracity of the laptop story. “I don’t trust Ratcliffe’s statement,” Neumann said. “The circumstances smell very suspicious. We have the U.S. government intelligence folks and the Homeland Threat Assessment acknowledging that Russia’s intent is to weaken our country that we cannot oppose them when they carry out their longer-term agenda (like invading sovereign countries, human rights abuses, arms sales to terrorists and dangerous countries and bullying in the Middle East). If this was them, it aligns with what we think their objective is: create division and discord, chaos etc. and help Trump.” It’s possible that Ratcliffe may not have known much about the investigation, which was reportedly briefed to Congress last week. A former Department of Homeland Security official said that the counterintelligence investigations are very closely held and it was “possible he hasn’t been read in.” Clinton Watts, a senior fellow at the Center for Cyber and Homeland Security at George Washington University and a former FBI special agent said “I cannot imagine that the FBI would in any way be able to determine if this was [Russian] disinformation before the election. This takes at a minimum weeks or months.” He said that the FBI would probably not comment on-the-record about an active investigation. “There are multiple reports of warnings that the Russians would launch a disinformation campaign related to Hunter Biden and Burisma. [Former New York mayor and Trump backer Rudy] Giuliani is the source of this story as far as I can tell and we saw that someone he was interacting with, [Andriy Derkach, a Kremlin ally sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury] has been assessed as a Russian agent and Derkach has tried multiple times to disseminate conspiracies about Hunter Biden and Burisma. How can the DNI determine with any certainty at this point that this laptop is not an extension of a Russian campaign through Derkach?” A spokesperson for the Office of the Director of National Intelligence said, “We have nothing to provide beyond what the DNI said on Fox Business this morning.” Also on Monday, the Department of Justice indicted six Russian GRU hackers for various cybercrimes, including attacking the 2017 French presidential elections and the NotPetya attack that crippled infrastructure across the globe that same year. Justice Department officials highlighted the time and rigor it takes to publicly attribute cybercriminals in places like Russia. “For more than two years, we have worked tirelessly to expose these Russian GRU Officers who engaged in a global campaign of hacking, disruption and destabilization, representing the most destructive and costly cyber-attacks in history,” U.S. Attorney Scott W. Brady for the Western District of Pennsylvania said in a statement. FBI Deputy Director David Bowdich said, “this indictment also highlights the FBI’s capabilities. We have the tools to investigate these malicious malware attacks, identify the perpetrators, and then impose risks and consequences on them. As demonstrated today, we will relentlessly pursue those who threaten the United States and its citizens.” |
