So again, I "got nothing" but let me say this. Tucker Carlson, FOX News have the Jan 6th the videos, for all to see. I probably wouldn't care much about these J6 videos but the fact that the corporate media and democrats ran with the insurrection narrative and vehemently  opposed the release of the videos due to security concerns and not in the public interest, there may be another story in the J6 video tapes, and if there is we can all get to see it after FOX news presents it. But because I "got nothing" has nothing to do with the coming storm the J6 videos may reveal, or not. But at least we get to see this J6 "nothing videos" that took a court order, GOP speaker McCarthy's action  and Tucker Carlson's publication along with FOX News contribution we can now see the left's proclaimed "insurrection" or that it was a big "nothing", except for any newly revealed details hidden until Tucker got the goods.

It's not the "left proclaimed insurrection". There has been an official investigation, and offenders have been judged by courts of law. Some of them even pleaded guilty. They had lawyers to defend them, and these lawyers also had access to the videos, among other evidence produced.

Not to mention the obvious conflict of interest by McCarthy, who officially provided the footage only to a politically friendly media, which has a proven record of knowingly diffusing big lies.

Wait and see, there is nothing today, but maybe tomorrow, Trump, nah, Biden, we'll see. And, let the J6 video's set the record straight. There may be some bombshell developments, maybe the FBI will chime in. Don't be so impatient. You know it's got to be juicy, embarrassing, incriminating, etc when pelsoi, and all J6'ers tried to bury and seal the videos in the archives for the next 50 years. You are in favor of or in fear of transparency, truth?

The videos could bring clarity into the events of Jan 6th and especially to the DNS bomb planter who has managed somehow to elude the FBI since Jan 2021.

 

Get your popcorn, it could be an eye opener, so much that CBS News, CNN, Politico, ProPublica ABC, Axios, Advance, Scripps, the Los Angeles Times, and Gannett all signed a letter sent to congressional leadership demanding access to the same video material released to Tucker Carlson at FOX news.

In the interest of fairness and transparency speaker McCarthy did say this:

'The House speaker said in a Wednesday interview with The New York Times that he expects to make the footage more widely available after Carlson uses the material."

So, again, you've got nothing.

There was time to reset the Afghan exit timeline, sequencing and method of exit, the date of which Biden altered, anyway.

 

Biden was relying on threats of sanctions last year, more than "rallying NATO", which has been more of a call of his only recently.

He altered the date until the last day allowed in the agreement signed by the Trump administration. Delaying more would have likely meant starting the fight again, bringing back the troops Trump withdraw, etc...

It was not a popular option in the public opinion, and I am certain that the same people who are criticizing him now would have accused him of making war again, after Trump signed a perfect peace treaty.

Inside House Republicans’ Plan to Investigate Hunter Biden as a 'National Security Threat'

https://time.com/6218879/hunter-biden-investigations-james-comer-house-republicans/

 

Don't see any planned investigations into Trump's sphere in the vein of being a "national security threat"

 

Give it a rest, stop with the 2 tiers of justice, go investigate real crimes and stop the persecution  of the most investigated and never charged politician in American history. American's have more and bigger issues to manage.

But, but...Hunter!????

Sunak’s spots the glaringly obvious, and then opens his mouth and talks about it:

And it's worth quoting, for lazy forum members:

Speaking at a Coca-Cola factory in Lisburn, he said: “If we get this right, if we get this framework implemented, we get the executive back up and running, Northern Ireland is in the unbelievably special position, the unique position in the entire world in having privileged access not just to the UK home market, which is the fifth biggest in the world, but also the European Union single market.

“Nobody else has that"

It is obvious that the virus came from a lab. Whether it escaped by accident or was deliberately leaked is the only question. (I think it was deliberately "leaked", as explained below.)

 

The way that we can know that the virus did not occur in nature is that Klaus Schwab from the World Economic Forum published a book about taking advantage of the virus to implement his "Great Reset". This book was published in mid-2020, just a few of months after the virus was unleashed on the world. There's no way he could have come up with a well-though-out plan to reset the world and have written and published a book about this plan just a few months after the virus started spreading. His plan came first, then the virus was released to put his plan into action.

Sure!

What is the Great Reset - and how did it get hijacked by conspiracy theories?

You understandably don't believe RT, but do you believe everything put out by western government controlled media? Seems to me that any media controlled by a government involved with one side or another is going to be biased, which is why I don't bother with any of them when it comes to things like this conflict.

I try to be objective, rather than regurgitate propaganda from any source.

Which Western government controlled media do you have in mind?

Showing again his fascist stance.

How naive can you be? "the video evidence". There are 41000 hours of video evidence. Given Carlson's past record, why would anyone believe that he will edit those videos in an honest way?

Actually that's exactly the reason why McCarthy gave the footage to Carlson. He is certain that it will be presented in a very dishonest way.

Do you mean like we did when China invaded Tibet? 

Ah, no oil there. 

 

What Russia have done is less serious than what Bush and Blair did in Iraq. 

Nobody's currently approving what the U.S. did. Actually, the same European countries which were against the Irak war, are also against the invasion of Ukraine (ex. France).

Anyway, others' sins are no excuse for committing a crime.

My feeling is that most Westerners are so thoroughly propagandized that the would welcome nuclear war against Russia (and China, North Korea, Syria, Yeman, and everyone the West literally hates) even if it led to their own destruction.

Myself? 

The only out I see involves nukes first launched by the West.  Other than that - I don't care
Too many Westerners are warmongers. 

B.S.! Who's making nuclear threats? Not Western countries.
