From reading PVMonger and his buddies, they sound like Woke Army Recruiters! Army Unsure Why Their New Slogan 'America Is Racist, You Should Die For It' Isn't Getting Traction. . .

FORT FARRAKHAN CA — A USA Army spokesperson admitted concern today after the recent drop in recruitment numbers, despite the unveiling of the new "America Is Racist, You Should Die For It" slogan.

Colonel Rip Skirtsteak said the Army will continue its push for diversity in hopes of drawing more new recruits. "It's just really hard to find recruits who hate this country as they should but are also willing to put their lives on the line to protect it," Skirtsteak said as he adjusted his rainbow flag lapel pin. "We may have to switch to Plan be, which is to offer free gender reassignment surgery for everyone who signs up. ".

The USA Army, once regarded as the premiere fighting force in the world except for the far superior Marine Corps, has instead diverted its efforts to getting rid of people who love America while promoting more inclusivity. "I really just wanted to join the military to serve my country, provide a bright future for my family, and stand up for what I believe is right," a young cadet said as he walked away from his local recruitment center after being asked by the recruitment officer if he regretted his white middle-class upbringing.

At press time, the Army was in deep discussions to create more publicity and attract potential recruits. "If our new rainbow camouflage uniforms don't get people in line to sign up, then maybe our planned 'Drag Queen Boot Camp' will do the trick," Colonel Skirtsteak said as he closed his press conference and strutted in his red high heels back to his office. . . .

That is classic whataboutism. To a dumb Dem, the answer to what a fascist, misogynist, homophobe, and xenophobe is a Republican, and it is does not matter if that Republican is a freedom loving, foreign, gay woman.

The king of whataboutism, that is.

You have been told, in many posts by me and others, what constitutes fascism, homophobism, xenophobia and misogyny. We have provided links. We have shown you proof.

Your response has been the usual RethugliKKKant response of deriding the sources and calling them "fake news".

We all know that a RethugliKKKant's idea of "freedom" is the ability to tell others what they can read, what they can think, who they can love and what they can do with their bodies. Nothing else matters to you. Especially democracy because what RethugliKKKants want is an autocracy, preferably headed by Agent Orange or one of his ilk.

I read this every few days and see the same thing all the time. Ultra left and crazy right. I used to think that ET was just an over the top Dem lover (and no I am not right wing and can't stand Trump) but first calling Bill Maher a Republican lover and now this CNN pro Republic nonsense has me wondering if he is truly addled.

Someone else who has been sound asleep oblivious about this for at least 40 years?

The record of results for Repub stewardship vs Dem stewardship (well, vs anything really) was already abysmal pre Reagan. During and after Reagan it has been spectacularly horrific.

No way should a Repub have come within 30 percentage points of winning an election since Reagan's first term as potus.

Yet, they have.

Mainstream Media need a close horse race contest every time. It does not want a foregone conclusion of a Dem blowout win every 2-4 years.

Consequently, MSM must elevate and praise Repub legislative and stewardship nothingness and failures and denigrate and slam Dem legislative and stewardship successes.

Otherwise known as "helping Repubs win elections. ".

Oh, I don't mean CNN and other MSM sources ignore all those Repub failures and Dem successes or lie about them all the time like FUX News does. Particularly during non election years when it really doesn't matter or effect them financially in the furture. After all, they are real news sources.

I am talking the Repub congratulating, Dem slamming spin MSM engages in during election time when it matters.

The intention is to see that these election contests are decided on a knife's edge, how exciting, when all data, historical results and logic dictates there is no way it should be so. And, guess what, sometimes the knife's edge cuts juuust enough the wrong way for America and a Repub squeaks out a win despite losing the vote by 500,000 to 3,000,000 votes against him.

Oh well. Too bad. But MSM got what they wanted and worked so hard for; an exciting horse race right down to the wire. Or was it a knife fight? Whatever.

In October 2020, MSM pundits were actually providing free Trump campaign ads by wondering aloud why was Trump talking about this "rigged election" nonsense instead of, you know, "touting his economy? Because, hey, most Americans think Repubs are better than Dems at handling the economy. ".

LOL. Tout what economy? The millions upon millions of jobs Trump's economic decisions and stewardship wiped out? The collapse of global supply-chains due to his methods and madness more than any other world leader?

But, gee, to hear MSM's spin on it you'd think Trump had produced some terrific economic results worth touting! LOL.

Again, otherwise known as, "helping Trump win an election. ".

Come on, guys. This decades long election year pattern for MSM spin is not so subtle and nuanced that anyone capable of booting up a computer and typing out the occasional coherent sentence would miss it.

Adjust to what? Not reading twitter? Not following Trump in the news? How did you suffer so with Trump?

WTF are you talking about? I have been short Biden's market and done better than most. Lately, there has been some pain but I have added to my positions. I have done better than anyone else I know.

Are you so dense you do not see the suffering of others? For a guy making constant noise about Trump, you are even more self-absorbed than he is.

There would be hundreds of thousands of people who would not be dead now in Ukraine and Afghanistan had Trump been re-elected but it is worth it for you. You do not have to deal with hit mean tweets.

You've been challenged a number of times in the 'Stupid Shit in Medellin' forum to back up your claims. You haven't invested in anything AND the investments you claimed that you made have deteriorated completely. You're now underwater. All you had to do to shut up the detractors is copy your April and June statements and redact your name and account number. If it is too much trouble I'm sure some 8 year old could do it for you in 2 to 3 minutes. You made up your fantasy trades and bragged about how well you were doing. Truth is a month and a half later, even those hypothetical trades are losers.

[Xpartan]

Hutchinson's testimony was 100% hearsay? Not even close.

First, hearsay only applies to a trial. Are the hearings a trial? Nope. So I call BS on your statement for that reason alone.

Need more proof? How about this: https://lawandcrime.com/jan-6-commit...e-complicated/ or https://www.politico.com/news/magazi...imony-00042985.

But you'll just call it "fake news" because that's what "FUX snooze" says it is, right?

Calling it hearsay is idiotic.

First, you testify under oath and second, you tell them what you know. You're not supposed to prove anything.

Trump says I don't fucking care they're armed.

Medows tells you Trump didn't want to save Pence from a lynching mob.

Your job, as a witness, to tell what you've heard and seen, not to prove it.

How is it hearsay?

Pathetic!

[ScatManDoo]

Almost 70% of what CNN says is just crap or false. Hopefully sooner or later someone will file a lawsuit against them and put them out of there misery.

I wonder if your English teachers were finally put out of "their misery".

[Elvis 2008]

Think I've answered that question. Hey, I've learnt how to adapt, adjust and persevere under Agent Orange

Adjust to what? Not reading twitter? Not following Trump in the news? How did you suffer so with Trump?

and you claim to be a smart guy, so....

learn to ADAPT, ADJUST and PERSEVERE under President Biden. Man-Up, dude! You'll get your chance in 2024.

WTF are you talking about? I have been short Biden's market and done better than most. Lately, there has been some pain but I have added to my positions. I have done better than anyone else I know.

[Jacob David]

I think Trump will win.

[Spidy]

This is good. I applaud you that you're way better and more honest than most libtards on this forum who would in straight face lie that things are better under Burden than Trump.

You had to bring the discussion down to how it is just for you now as opposed to keeping the discussion at the broader level "is the country better under Burden than Trump", which we all know that it's way worse now.

Can't speak for the whole country, but much of the angst the country is going through in the Biden presidency, is akin to the shit bombs from a toddler, a parent has to clean up after their kid shits and wets the bed.

If it's not yet clear, in the wake of Agent Orange's presidency, is LIKE cleaning up after a shit bombing, p1ssing, bed wetting toddler. Hence much of the country's angst.

In Trump's time, I agree we were bombarded with tweets, some pretty mean even for his supporters like me, but good thing was that things were getting done, US and international economy and peace were kept in a steady path. Some of us understand that how a man talks to me (mean tweets) is way less important than what he does for me (keep us safe from getting killed in wars or making sure we aren't getting into huge inflation or recession etc etc blah blah blah). It's the intelligence to figure out what's important for us and what we can ignore. Like I always say, Trump is no way the best possible POTUS, but compared to all other current choices we have (or had in 2020), he's probably the best. If a better candidate comes along for 2024, I would definitely vote for that better candidate, unfortunately Burden was never that candidate and never will.

What now? Agent Orange's lame duck presidency, was the WORST in history. See below, just in case you didn't get the memo!

[Spidy]

So the massive increase in food and gas prices, the recession talk, the war in Ukraine, and the Covid debacle (which was cured by the war in Ukraine) have not affected you, but Trump's tweets did?

I am glad to see you have your priorities in life correct.

Think I've answered that question. Hey, I've learnt how to adapt, adjust and persevere under Agent Orange and you claim to be a smart guy, so....

learn to ADAPT, ADJUST and PERSEVERE under President Biden. Man-Up, dude! You'll get your chance in 2024.

And how is it you're life has changed SO MUCH, under President Biden? So much so you can no longer afford to live life?

Or who is it EXACTLY, that you're SUDDENLY, so concerned for? (Those below the poverty line post Agent Orange, Women Rights, LGBTQ Rights, Black Rights, White Rights, Blue Collar Workers, White Collar Workers?)

Oh, woe is me, Elvis, under this oppressive Biden administration!

[Paulie97]

And almost 99% of what "FUX Snooze" says is true? ROFL.

CNN reports real news with a left bias. "FUX Snooze" is all BS all the time. Even their lawyers said so.

CNN is facts with a left spin, and if mistakes are made corrections are typically issued. And when covering Trump and his sheep and cronies there's often recordings of the nonsense from their own mouths to back up what is reported. Though the right wingnuts never see it because they are inoculated with the "corporate media" is fake news nonsense even though Fox is a corporation.

But Fox just makes stuff up and chases down the the latest conspiracy theories, especially during the evening propaganda hours. This should come as no surprise as they were birthed from the self-proclaimed "entertainer" Rush Limbaugh who constantly lied.

[ScatManDoo]

Yep, RethugliKKKants have never played with words.

They can't tell anybody what a fascist is, even when looking in the mirror will tell them.

They can't tell anybody what a misogynist is, even when looking in the mirror will tell them.

They can't tell anybody what a homophobe is, even when looking in the mirror will tell them.

They can't tell anybody what a xenophobe is, even when looking in the mirror will tell them.

My first thought when reading PVM's post was "Gee Republicans seem to wear a lot of hats. ".

But upon further reflection, my thought shifted to:

Republican seem to have a lot of weaknesses and ailments.

[ScatManDoo]

Here is what WikiPedia has to say about James Murray:

"In 2014, Murray became the Acting Special Agent in Charge of the Secret Service's Washington, the. See. Field Office. He was promoted to the position and continued to lead the field office until 2016. From 2016 to 2018, he served as Deputy Assistant Director of Protective Operations, during which he led combined agency efforts for the presidential campaigns ahead of the 2016 USA Presidential election, the presidential transition, and the inauguration of President Donald Trump on January 20,2017. He returned to the James J. Rowley Training Center as the Special Agent in Charge.

In April 2018, Murray became the Assistant Director of the Office of Protective Operations and was responsible for the planning, coordination, and administration of the agency's global protective mission. On April 8, 2019, President Donald Trump removed Randolph Alles as Director of the USA Secret Service and named Murray as his replacement. He took office on May 1, 2019.

On July 7, 2022, Murray announced his retirement as Secret Service Director, to take effect July 30,2022. Murray will take the role of Chief Security Officer at Snap Inc. , parent company of Snapchat, on August 1, 2022.

Missing records investigation.

On July 14,2022, it was reported that "Members of the USA Secret Service erased text messages from January 5th and 6th, 2021, shortly after the Department of Homeland Security inspector general requested them as part of an investigation into the agency's response to the 2021 United States Capitol attack, according to a letter written by the inspector general to congressional leaders (.)". On July 20,2022, Gladys Ayala, the Inspector General (IG} of the Department of Homeland Security notified the Secret Service that her office was investigating the disappearance of text messages and emails regarding the siege of the USA Capitol on January 6, 2021, characterizing their disappearance as an "ongoing criminal investigation. " She directed the Secret Service to cease any internal investigations into the matter of failure of the agency to preserve the missing records. ".

Then he said "Snap"

[Elvis 2008]

Yep, RethugliKKKants have never played with words.

They can't tell anybody what a fascist is, even when looking in the mirror will tell them.

That is classic whataboutism. To a dumb Dem, the answer to what a fascist, misogynist, homophobe, and xenophobe is a Republican, and it is does not matter if that Republican is a freedom loving, foreign, gay woman.

[Elvis 2008]

So, please answer the question I asked, which was tell me any RethugliKKKan poplitician who is not campaigning on high gasoline prices. You can't because there are none.

And they are not supposed to campaign on Democratic fuckups? Since when? How many times did you dumb Dems make fun of drill baby drill?

Former ambassador to Ukraine, Marie Yovanovitch, did say that, but not in the way you portray. Putin didn't invade because Donnie the Dumbass was swallowing all of Putin's man-sauce.

So thousands of dead Russians and Ukrainians and a trillion dollars of damage is better than the president "swallowing man sauce" whatever that means? You going to run on that too?

So again, you are the party that does not care about high gas prices or human life.
