  1. Stephen King Reacts to Trump's Rant About Kamala Harris Rally Crowd Size King, a vocal Trump critic, responded to Trump's rant on X, formerly Twitter, on Sunday afternoon, writing: "Is this real? If it is, Trump has really lost it." Adam Parkhomenko, a Democratic strategist, replied to King on X and wrote: "Yep, and it's scarier than anything you've ever written." https://www.newsweek.com/stephen-king-donald-trump-kamala-harris-plane-crowd-artificial-intelligence-1937624 I would amend Parkhomenko's comment to read: Yep, and it's weirder than anything you've ever written.
  2. You claimed that oil production fell under Biden. Actually, it was slightly higher in 2021 than in 2020. And it went up from there.
  3. So you believe that Biden was President in 2020? As for the strategic petroleum reserve, what's your point? If anything it argues against it since it would have been released in addition to oil produced in that year.
  4. Yes, I know that perfectly well. And as you apparently don't know Covid continued in 2021.
  5. I don't understand your objection.. For example, if the first photo was taken on Aug 2, 2009, then the second photo would have been taken on Aug 1, 2024. That would be 15 years minus one day.
  6. Whatever the validity of Kubler Ross's model may be, we can be sure that Phase 5 doesn't feature in Trump's character. Rather, it's Denialism.
  7. Actually, Oil production took its downturn in 2020. Hmmm..maybe Biden is a time traveller? https://www.statista.com/statistics/265215/us-oil-production-in-million-metric-tons/
  8. A president who had a huge record of accomplishments during his first 2 years in office. Maybe you can explain what his son's crimes have to do with his achievements. Attempts to do that by his opponents have failed miserably. As for the crime family nonsense, it looks like you are somewhat unfamiliar with the English language: A crime family is a unit of an organized crime syndicate, particularly in Italian organized crime and especially in the Sicilian Mafia and Italian-American Mafia, often operating within a specific geographic territory or a specific set of activities. In its strictest sense, a family (or clan) is a criminal gang, operating either on a unitary basis or as an organized collection of smaller gangs (e.g., cells, factions, crews, etc.). In turn, a family can be a sole "enterprise" or part of a larger syndicate or cartel. Despite the name, most crime families are generally not based on or formed around actual familial connections, although they do tend to be ethnically based, and many members may in fact be related to one another. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_family A crime family is a unit of an organized crime syndicate, particularly the Mafia (both in Sicily and in the United States), often operating within a specific geographic territory.

  9. As noted above, "bait and switch" makes no sense.
  10. If Biden really put his country before himself he would never have run for a second term. He had a record of big accomplishments during his first 2 years before the Republicans in the House put an end to his agenda. That should have been enough for him. There are better candidates than Kamala Harris. The only reason she is doing so well now is a glaring fact that Trump supporters manage to overlook: Trump is very unpopular, too.
  11. You're claiming that it was bait and switch? Really? That makes absolutely no sense. Biden had very low support even in his own party for a second run. So the plot was to fool people into voting for the candidacy an unpopular president even though there were lots of possible candidates considered more electable than Kamala Harris?
  12. It will be a while before those government parcels produce oil. In the meantime lots of people have had to eat their own words.Like those who proclaimed that oil and gas production would fall under Biden. How's that prediction working out?
  13. Of course she was used to advance an agenda. You think political agendas are beneath the dignity of a UN Ambassador? Where do you think she gets her marching orders from? God? And criticizing the validity of her assertions is not the same as criticizing her. But, of course, people like UN.watch use her grief as a shield to prevent criticism. It's they who deserve condemnation.
  14. There already is a guest worker program. How's that working out in meeting demand? Really there's an open border? And as for it serving Democratic interests...really? Because the agricultural industry votes Democratic? Because business owners in general favor the Democrats? Now you're down to making denigratory comments instead of rational replies. You've got nothing.
  15. Because they're using a grief-stricken mother her to advance their agenda. They must have known that they would be exposing her to public criticism. They are using her grief to lend credence to claims unbacked by evidence.
  16. I was hoping you would ask: https://www.instagram.com/p/C-JW3C1N1eH/ The same people whose post of her in Lausanne appears as some sort of evidence in this forum.
  17. Jack Posobiec was aguy who promoted the Pizzagate conspiracy allegations. Posobiec has promoted many falsehoods,[27] leading to Philadelphia calling him the "King of Fake News" in 2017.[16] He was one of the most prominent promoters on social media of the Pizzagate conspiracy theory, which falsely claimed that high-ranking officials were involved in a child-sex ring centered at a Washington, D.C., pizzeria.[16][12] He live-streamed an investigation of the pizzeria and was asked to leave after attempting to broadcast a child's birthday party being held in a back room.[64 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Posobiec#cite_note-philly-16 After the lie was exploded he claimed he did the live stream to discredit the theory. Uh-juh He also tried to plant sign that said "Rape Melania" to discredit anti trump protestors. Lots of others falsehoods too numerous to mention. Once again, I'm not claiming that it's false, just that a link to a credible source is what's required. And even if it were true, does that mean the at other venues there's also lots of empty seats?
  18. Because if you put her in a public venue to make such claims then everyone has a perfect right to question those claims. After all, she was being used to advance the agenda of those who brought her there. If she were grieving at home with her loved ones she could make whatever allegations she liked and no outsider would have a right or a legitimate reason to question them.
  19. It is puzzling: " Instead, the special counsel's office contends that Biden performed minimal work for the substantial sums of money he received from these entities. The details surrounding these financial arrangements are expected to play a crucial role in the upcoming trial." I'm guessing that money was transferred to him in turn to transfer a part of it to someone else who didn't want to be directly tied to the Romanian govt. But that's just an uninformed guess. But why should only Biden haters be allowed to make evidence-free suppositions? That hardly seems fair.
  20. So, you have no problem with her questioning being introduced as evidence of some sort in this thread but a problem with questioning it? Actually, the people who showed little respect for Ayelet Samerano are those who enabled her to be present at the public forum where she could make those dubious claims. Exploitation much?
  21. Usually legislation begins with discussions. No evidence that Republicans are even discussing this. And the reason it has no chance of being passed? Obviously because it would hurt interests that are crucial to Republicans. As for the benefits being "leftist propaganda"...tell that to the agricultural industry including meatpacking and dairy. These U.S. industries can't work without illegal immigrants https://www.cbsnews.com/news/illegal-immigrants-us-jobs-economy-farm-workers-taxes/
  22. Most of the attention toward climate change and global warming is directed at atmospheric temperatures a few feet above the surface of the land. Given that this is measuring air, the fluctuation in temperature can be erratic making it more difficult to separate out the static from the signal. But in the case of ocean heat storage it's a lot more clear because of the high specific heat of sea water which means temperature fluctuations are greatly reduced. "Ninety percent of global warming is occurring in the ocean, causing the water’s internal heat to increase since modern recordkeeping began in 1955, as shown in the upper chart. (The shaded blue region indicates the 95% margin of uncertainty.) This chart shows annual estimates for the first 2,000 meters of ocean depth." https://climate.nasa.gov/vital-signs/ocean-warming/?intent=121
  23. That may be true. But you'll have to come up with a credible source to establish that as a fact. So try again with an actual link to a credible source From the landing page of the World News Forum: Any alleged factual claims must be supported by a valid link to an approved credible source. https://aseannow.com/forum/158-world-news/
  24. There is also the little issue of Trump not actually wanting to tank the economy by ridding it of illegals.
  25. The way one starts to get legislation passed is to first promote it. Make it a subject for debate and discussion. But it doesn't even get a mention from Trump and his fellow travelers. Given that so much of his support stems from people who benefit from illegal workers, that isn't surprising.
