Maithanet Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 If Trump is willing to sit in prison for the next 24 years, I'm willing to vote for him in 2048. Politics is about compromise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martell Spy Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 That's crazy that Fox News had a factchecking operation. Their entire business became about lies and they chased off their few semi-serious journalists. And that operation's work now gets used against them in these lawsuits I guess maybe you can tell better lies if pros go over them? Did Goebbels have fact-checkers? Fox News v Dominion: $1.6bn defamation fight heads to court The voting machine company is suing the news channel over its disingenuous coverage of various outlandish election claims https://www.theguardian.com/media/2023/mar/21/fox-news-dominion-16bn-defamation-lawsuit-court Quote By mid-November, Fox News’ internal factchecking operation, called “the brain room”, had factchecked outlandish claims about Dominion and had debunked them, according to Nelson’s presentation. Even though employees responsible for the network’s shows were aware of the falsity of those claims, they continued to air them. Dominion also sent more than 3,000 communications to employees at the network correcting the record about false claims, prompting one employee to joke in an email that he had the company’s “setting the record straight” email tattooed on his body. Fox was so intent on broadcasting false claims about Dominion because it was concerned about losing viewers, who were angry about the 2020 election results and Fox’s decision to call it for Joe Biden, to a competing network, Newsmax. Nelson showed text messages from Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott complaining about the network’s factcheck of a false Dominion claim and saying it was bad for business.

Larry of the Lawn Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Some of these AI generated images of Trump getting arrested are pretty entertaining. Pretty entertaining in a "deep fakes are horrifying" kind of way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say let him wait 25 years or so before he released to run for President again... More like the next Manson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IheartIheartTesla Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Doubt the indictment was happening this week, its all part of his grift to fleece his gullible supporters. It was amusing to see how well trained the House GoP was, swinging into action based on rumors and hearsay. Normally, Congress waits until an act has happened to respond.

Zorral Posted March 22, 2023 Author Share Posted March 22, 2023 9 hours ago, A Horse Named Stranger said: Ah, agriculture in southern Spain. Basically one of the most arid regions of Europe is used to grow bellpeppers and stuff to be shipped north. If you want to know institutional European insanity, that's a good place to start. You are incorrect. This is the land of oranges and almonds, as well as wine. Much wonderful local produce that create wonderful salads. And much else. Nearly everywhere we have eaten the food is locally sourced. Both the Romans and 'Saracens' have understood farming and irrigation for centuries. One of the reasons Cordoba was the richest of kingdoms, and had neatly a million residents when Europe per se didn't have cities per se to speak of. Why do you hate Spain?

Maithanet Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Trump's lawyer Evan Corcoran will be testifying on Friday in the classified documents case. The dc city moved incredibly fast on this. The trump lawyers appealed to delay things and the court was having none of it, set some aggressive deadlines. The bar to pierce attorney client provided is pretty high. To have done this so quickly indicated it's something big. Some speculation that Corcoran has audio tapes of Trump discussing these matters.

IheartIheartTesla Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Trump isnt even the first President to be arrested (allegedly). Wonder how small the cuffs will have to be to fit his tiny, tiny hands. Galloping Grant: the day a sitting president of the US was arrested | US news | The Guardian Quote In 1872, President Ulysses S Grant was nicked for speeding in his horse-drawn carriage. The arrest of the 18th president, at the corner of 13th and M streets in Washington DC, was not for “a high crime, but it was – at least theoretically speaking – a misdemeanor”, the Washington Post reported. The policeman who arrested Grant was a Black civil war veteran, William H West. In 1908, West told his tale to the Washington Evening Star.
