I find it interesting that while we all sit here and watch this utter joke of a Presidential Administration, all the loud mouth leftist who wrote the most ridiculous paragraphs about the abysmal state of the US because of Trump, have bailed when we actually see what abysmal really looks like.

We have our fair and balanced moderator tossing out an occasional funny emoji (and they are funny) and Eegore waging his war for equality but that’s it.

I don’t blame the regular leftist for bailing. They’re essentially attending their losing team’s home games wearing paper bags over their heads.

We have such an embarrassing display of leadership. Sure, Biden’s operating on half a brain, but we knew that 12 months ago, but WTF? Kamala Harris? Are you kidding? And who the fxxk are those clowns running Defense and State? I was listening to both of them the other day and was thinking how the hell did these guys get to the top, knowing full well how they did.

I hope we survive this. I’ve always said the US today is like that pick up truck in Bill Murray’s movie Groundhog Day, as it streaks towards the edge of the quarry. There’s a point of no return where no matter what you do, even if you slam on the brakes, you’re still going to go right off the edge.

I’ve never felt like we were as close to the point of no return as we are now. I’m afraid even if the Republicans dominate the midterms and take over, the bureaucracy that runs Washington is so polluted with fools that the situation is hopeless.  And that’s not even factoring into the equation it has to be the right Republicans elected. Which is not a given.

I would hope Biden, Harris, those two worthless pieces of crap at Defense and State, Pelosi, Schumer, and Mitch McConnell would all resign in mass and let’s start over.

Sure, you could say that this is all inside the beltway talk and out in the “real world“ things aren’t that bad. But that’s not true. I am in the real world. I do get the opportunity to travel around. And it is that bad. It’s not the same as it was. Sure Covid has a lot to do with it, but the response to Covid is responsible for a big part of what’s going on. And the response to Covid was based on a lot of things that have nothing to do with Covid itself.

I see and hear about all the small town Council meetings and the constituents are riled up and furious with their elected leaders and I realize those who run for city councils, mayors, those who get appointed to run state agencies  are the wrong kind of people to be in power right now.

We need patriots. We need people to stand up at those meetings flip the council the bird and tell them what they’re planning for the city isn’t right. It’s not the right way to do things and we’re not going to do it. That’s what we need.

Kabul is a shitshow...
No way Trump would have done one iota better.
He negotiated surrender to the Taliban for God's sake.
This was the inevitable consequence of going in.

On the bright side,
It's giving Trumpettes happy feet.
If four people die, you can make it the next Benghazi.
Maybe it will carry you through the next 3 1/2 years.
Fingers crossed aye?...

No way in hell Trump does this. No way.
But keep waving your little blue flag until the end.

"That’s my point, they don’t. You try so hard to make that so, but it’s just not true."

 I use about 7.6 million data points across 4 major crime reporting systems, 3 smaller ones, 2 metadata analyst services, and a full-time micro-film digitizer to assess criminal activity in the US.

 I see no indication the Democrats are more prone to shoplifting, murder, or identity theft than Republicans, or the other way around.  I offered this before and offer again, I will go through the process with you, and put you in contact with the people that create these tables so you can audit the process.  

 How are you coming to the conclusion that Republicans, or Democrats are somehow not capable of committing the exact same crime?  

 I propose you choose a crime, we identify the laws that support it in criminal code and then develop a system to separate Democratic criminals from Republican ones and see if there is a crime that is exclusive to political affiliation.  What crime do you think exists under US law that a Democrat or Republican has never ever committed?

The people we trained were hauling ass.

The idiot in chief

Did Not

Secure the bases with more people.
Bring in planes to haul Americans and allies out.

The people we tried to train to fight didn't WANT to kill Muslims.
And chose not to.
I LISTEN to men who were there.
Yeah, we should have destroyed the drones and choppers or removed them.
Everything should have been destroyed or removed unless the people who are RIGHT NOW being harmed had someone to protect them.

It's a frikkin mess and Obiden is where?
Announcing he did it perfectly and back in hiding.


I wonder how many Republicans are involved in the shootings every weekend in Chicago..

High tech toys without training.
...Single use...

 I have never commented once on the percentage value of criminal activity by political affiliation.  The math needed to evaluate that is very complex. So how you manage to think I am saying the percentage is equal I do not know.  Acknowledgment of something is not saying it is "equal", it is saying that it exists.

 This is similar to the post where I very specifically said "larger scale" and you interpret it as me saying equal.  Larger means bigger, not equal.

 I am saying that each human has equal propensity for criminal activity and as such each political organization commits crimes.  All of them.  

 This again goes back to the Billy broke a window analogy.  But Bobby broke 10!  Yeah Bobby is doing more damage, but I am not going to ignore that Billy broke 1.  Law enforcement responses are not equal, but if there was at any point one arrest of one ANTIFA participant I will not say "Zero" ANTIFA participants are arrested because it is factually wrong.

 There is no value to me saying ANTIFA won't get arrested because I am not emotionally invested in it enough to exaggerate facts.  

 I'd be interested in what crimes you specifically mean so I can figure out a way to assign a political affiliation to those and come up with counts.

 I am aware of illegal behavior by both Democratic and Republican political leaders, but I need to know what crimes you are evaluating.
