:staffwarn: Split from this thread Toni, I am gobsmacked that you are so keenly aware of the GOP leader’s mental and ethical deficiencies, yet are so willing to give a pass to those who nonetheless want him back in charge of the US government. I think their willful ignorance and strident...

"We done up an' lost th'informint, an' th'witness too!"

We need more guns! Obviously, if everyone had brought their piece to the party they might have kept the body count down. No excuse - no permits needed. Don’t leave home without it!

5 Dead and 8 Injured in Shooting in Louisville, Ky Oh well. Another day in Murka. It'll be okay though, because Mitch McConnell, beloved by everyone in his beautiful State, has sent his priceless thoughts and prayers. ETA: They're not saying what kind of weapon was used by the killer. IMHO...

The Wisconsin Supreme Court election held Tuesday broke the record for voter turnout during a spring election not coinciding with a presidential race.Over 36% of eligible Wisconsin voters participated in the highly-anticipated election, surpassing the previous high of 34% set in the 2011 state...

I find it incredible that anyone in the US who has any interest in the preservation of American democracy, has remained ignorant of the FACT of Donald Trump’s coup attempt. I don’t want to discuss specific posters’ willful ignorance, but rather the dynamic that enables it to persist in the face...

So ... The ICC isn't happy about Uncle Vlad's genocide campaign against the citizens of Ukraine. But it's not all gloom and doom; poor Uncle Vlad's rich Uncle Xi is coming to visit, and he is a big fan of genocide. So maybe it will all work out.

Even if someone evinces something manifestly crazy? Is the verity of a statement now measured in the numbers of its believers rather than its correspondence to observable reality? Appears to be the case. I made up the most wack conspiracy theory I could think of, typed it into Google, and got...

Architect of the Capitol fired after Inspector General report revealed complicity in January 6 coup It is amazing how thoroughly Trump corrupted the entire federal government. We may never recover, even if the traitors are all purged tomorrow.

... not enough popcorn in the world. Proud Boys' lawyers plan to subpoena Donald Trump in seditious conspiracy trial I wonder if the odds of Trump actually appearing are listed on the Las Vegas boards. Last time someone tried to subpoena Cheato, the judge quashed it. I'm starting to wonder if...

I don’t even know how to comment on this. Someone who knows more than I (almost anyone) please comment!

Yes, the flag hugging liar who swore to defend the Constitution has declared that "all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution" should be terminated, so that he can be installed as dictator. Personally I feel that he should be locked up today, just as we would lock...

It sometimes occurs to me that right wingers on IIDB are getting a free pass. Not that the internet shouldn't be "free" in terms of expression, just that I think there are people here advancing an agenda to which they won't own up. I see no full-throated denial, nor any overt embrace of The Big...

An open question for anyone who cares to venture a guess: What percentage of Democrat and Republican candidates who lose the 11/8 election will refuse to concede and claim fraud? My own guess is that at least 2/3 of losing Republicans and fewer than 10% of losing Democrats will refuse to...

Ok, it's a broad brush and might not apply to every single one of them. This is specifically about talking heads saying "Trump has endorsed [candidate X], who believes the 2020 election was stolen. BULLSHIT. Responsible reporting would be "who SAYS the 2020 election was stolen" (which is the...

Talking heads make it sound like a deeply troubling question. IMO it’s simple: any President who tries to stay in power by destroying democracy after losing a free and fair election, should be imprisoned for life - or executed. Why is that a problem for any American?

Overnight, it looks like Rupert finally got fed up with Cheato. Why? What will be the effect on the trumpsucking sheeple hordes, if any? This might be bigger than the 1/6 Committee... Whatever is driving this, it is heartwarming to see the Murdoch megalopoly set to it, eating their own. Not...

https://lostnotstolen.org/ A conservative group has put out an exhaustive report showing that not only was there insufficient fraud in the 2020 election to change the result of the presidential election, but that there is not one single precinct anywhere in the US where the results could have...
