"Lab Leak Most Likely Origin of Covid-19 Pandemic, Energy Department Now Says U.S. agency’s revised assessment is based on new intelligence" https://www.wsj.com/articles/covid-origin-china-lab-leak-807b7b0a You knew it. I knew it. The notion that covid started by jumping from bat to pangolin to some soup in a wet market ACROSS THE ROAD from a bat coronavirus research facility was the silliest conspiracy theory ever. That it took years to comprehensively "debunk" is disgraceful. I think this was the last conspiracy theory of the right to turn into confirmed fact. There's no more left. Now let's hold those that censored the truth and forced us to accept silly lies accountable. All of them.

"continued associated with white supremacists" more conspiracies and false claims, you are on a roll today. "“I didn’t know that the OK sign was a symbol for white supremacy, just as I didn’t know that those people at that bar were Proud Boys. They were set up by my former attorney who was fired because of that, for putting me in situations like that with people I don’t agree with.” https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/kyle-rittenhouse-proud-boys-gesture-b1963573.html

Bizarre and ridiculous. There is literally no evidence Rittenhouse is a white supremacist. That is because he is NOT a white supremacist and never has been. I love it how when icons of the left like biden(1) flash an OK sign fact checkers wet themselves running to debunk it - yet when people the left hate do it, well of course it's different then isn't it. How I long for honest discussion. " the whole idea that the OK sign is a white-power signal — the fingers secretly representing a “W” for white and a “P” for power — is a hoax. The idea was pushed by internet trolls to fool credulous liberals into picking it up. Mission accomplished." https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2018/09/05/kavanaugh-white-power-zina-bash-219733/ (1)https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/oct/22/viral-image/no-biden-didnt-flash-white-power-sign-black-man-du/

Wife and I have been trying out the 4/5* breakfast buffets around the north of the island. Anybody have any recommendations? Did the new Hyatt last week. Very nice, but I don't like when they hide the bacon behind a window and make you ask the staff to serve you. For some reason it's embarrassing asking for 20 streaky rashers. Bang for the buck so far would be Renaissance in Lamai - got all the basics covered for around 600B - about half what the Hyatt was.

Must be racism by the refs? I wonder if any refs were themselves "dark skinned"?, that would throw a proper spanner into the narrative. The sensible solution here is to stop giving yellow or red cards to "dark skinned" players for a year and see how it goes.

An outrageous and highly defamatory smear and conspiracy theory(recently defined here as any factual claim made without credible evidence to support). KR is actively suing lowlives that defame and smear him(1). What I find incredible in the Rittenhouse case - other than it was not permitted on the interweb to factually accurately state that he did not transport a gun across state lines, nor challenge Biden's false claim made without a shred of evidence that KR was a white supremacist(2)- is the disgusting criminal background of the violent white protestors(3) that Kyle was forced to defend himself against. Lowest of the low.

Mike is a good lad. Really loves his country. Certainly he makes a good point about giving this footage to the snakes at Fox rather than to patriots like Bannon, or Newsmax/OANN. And he makes some superb pilows, we threw out all ours and went all-in with MyPillows. Soon as they felt them the neighbors were green with envy and they started ordering them too. Rare to find a top quality and affordable product made with pride in the USA.

I read the article. It is a rehash of Mueller's 2 irrational haters and corrupt FBI agents behaving in an inappropriate and politicized way. Other than the title this reads to me like an FBI bad thread not another orange man bad thread? Politicized and irrational hate-filled FBI agents targeting a political opponent is obviously not a good thing, and is something we are repeatedly told does not happen. It does.

I wonder how many fit and cognitively able people keep on falling when encountering a flight of stairs? "Watch your step, Joe! President Biden once again had issues keeping his balance Wednesday as he tripped up the steps of Air Force One on his way home from Poland. Biden, 80, fell forward about halfway up the stairs to the plane as he attempted to board at Warsaw Chopin Airport." https://nypost.com/2023/02/22/biden-stumbles-up-air-force-one-stairs-again-leaving-poland/

Good old Trump, nicely filling the leadership vacuum and showing what an America 1st President should be doing ie visiting areas of the homeland that had an emergency and needed support, rather than showboating on the other side of the world and further escalating the proxy war between Russia and Biden's USA. I note when there is a REAL environmental disaster - man made in this case - the usual climate alarmists are strangely quiet.

I wonder if the US concentrated more on improving it's own democracy(transparency, less fake news, more secure elections with forensic audits possible to check concerning events like water leaks causing counts to shut etc etc), and interfered less in the politics of sovereign nations halfway around the world, we would all be safer?

I thought the idea of the far left banning books containing offensive words like "woman" and "fat" was a conspiracy theory by the far right? Another conspiracy morphing into confirmed fact. Oh dear!

This is too bad, poor fish.

Well to be fair, how many times were we told that his health was absolutely fine and we should trust the MSM about that - rather than rely on our own eyes and ears. "Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman’s (D) primary care physician said in a new letter that his recovery from the stroke he suffered in May is progressing well and that he “has no work restrictions and can work full duty in public office.” Clifford Chen, a doctor at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC), wrote in a medical report that a Friday exam showed the Democratic Senate nominee is keeping up “good fitness and health practices” during his recovery and that his vitals look strong." https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/3695667-fetterman-doctor-candidate-in-good-health-has-no-work-restrictions/ It was clear to me he was having major problems and would not be able to do the job, ah the dangers of free and critical thinking. This is another in a long line of false narratives beneficial to the democrat party that magically changes after an election. Coincidental no doubt.

The use of emotionally loaded language is generally a sign that the person has no rational or logical argument to make and thus resorts to abusive language or otherwise nonsensical inflammatory comments. Here are some examples from this very thread. Of course there is no such thing as the "American fascist party" although the party that tried creating a ministry of truth headed up by a known laptop denier to continue punishing and censoring truth and forcing a self serving false narrative on Americans is close to fascism. And the last one is amusing. I often see prominent posters of the extreme left persuasion here mis-gendering Lyndsey Graham. Always the way isn't it. I can't remember ever having seen a conservative poster resort to abuse when their argument goes down the swanny. Lyndsey Graham - frequently mis-gendered by abusive posters. Michelle Obama - never mis-gendered. Food for thought... "The GOP is all about anti LGBT all the time. Just like Putin. Fascists think alike." "It's one of these fake issues the American fascist party promotes as important because they have no interest in addressing real problems." "Well, there goes Lindsey Graham's side hustle. I bet he does a great Blanche du Bois."

Worth remembering when biden started this abomination of a presidency his predecessor left him with an inflation rate of 1.4%. This is all the democrats doing, reaching a peak of absurdity when they passed a spending boondoggle they amusingly called the inflation reduction act which they knew would not reduce inflation(1). Let's get the adults back in charge asap. "The White House celebrated its first-year economic achievements by tweeting: “When @POTUS and @VP were sworn in, our economy was on the brink of collapse.” That is a flat-out lie. As Biden first set foot in the Oval Office a year ago, real GDP was growing at 6.3 percent, inflation was 1.4 percent" https://thehill.com/opinion/finance/590451-how-biden-torched-the-trump-recovery/ (1)supporting evidence for uncomfortable claim made "With inflation raging near its highest level in four decades, President Joe Biden on Tuesday signed into law his landmark Inflation Reduction Act. Its title raises a tantalizing question: Will the measure actually tame the price spikes that have inflicted hardships on American households? Economic analyses of the proposal suggest that the likely answer is no — not anytime soon, anyway. https://apnews.com/article/inflation-biden-health-congress-climate-and-environment-63df07e15002c01fb560a6f0e69fcb03

Literally no idea why team Biden are finding this a joke. The story has gone from you can't shoot balloons down over the country because it's dangerous and it's easier finding the thing you shot down in the ocean rather than land. Cuz' the adults are back in charge, listening to their advisors etc etc. To today's story that MULTIPLE objects are being shot down all over the place and these things are unidentified flying objects(1). Now if anyone has been doing some free thinking (i know, i know, it's dangerous and bad for democracy) they will have concern that shooting down possible nuclear powered objects or even unknown technology propulsion systems down over land inhabited by humans is questionable in terms of elf and safety - particularly compared to balloons which we all accept are dangerous to shoot down over land. Not to even think about the ramifications of starting an intergalactic war with far superior equipped creatures. IMO this administration is a clear and present danger to life on earth, and having chronic liar and disinformation master KJP laugh and deny it is as good as confirming all the worst fears. 1.https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11742875/U-S-military-shoots-unidentified-object-Lake-Huron-three-days.html

correct, although I have often seen it denied. "Given those complexities, Mrs. Bradshaw said she resented the fact that the school had made her feel like a bad parent for wondering whether educators had put her teenager, a minor, on a path the school wasn’t qualified to oversee. “It felt like a parenting stab in the back from the school system,” she said. “It should have been a decision we made as a family.” https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/22/us/gender-identity-students-parents.html And the truly sad part of this is this/and other poor caring parents will be(as we can all see from posts above) falsely described as a bigot a fascist, a minority hater etc etc for the dreadful crime of caring about her minor child's welfare.

A very dangerous view.

I will paraphrase him due to the profanity, but Mr Water's comments recently that it is idiotic to claim that there was no reason or provocation for Russia's Ukraine military operation, were spot on. Of course there is a reason for everything, and that 2 opposing sides will both have their opinions on what caused the problem. There is no black/white, everything is in shades of grey. The left repeatedly claiming that " it is solely the fault of Putin" while waging a proxy war against Russia could easily lead to full on nuclear war and the end of life on earth. We need competent leadership immediately, and get on with NEGOTIATING for PEACE before it is too late.

"as has been made clear" by who? by your own speculation? By the Biden activist media? What has concerned me since this chaotic Biden balloon saga started was the ridiculous yet prevailing narrative that objects can not, nor should not be downed over land - even sparsely populated badlands, and that (IMO because of how it played out) it is better to down objects over the sea. Now this is problematic as searching the sea bed for minute pieces of whatever it was is difficult. Yet if it had been downed over land a 7 year old with a gun dog could easily have located it, and nothing would be lost due to being buried in sediment or floated away. They would have "the opportunity to study the capabilities of the previous balloon's payload" with it nice and dry sitting on their desks, rather than waterlogged and spread out over a vast area of silty sea floor. It made no sense. And now finally, there is an admission that the narrative was nonsense and of course an object could and should be downed ASAP.

?? What? We have just had a week with Biden fans telling us that it was not possible/too dangerous/easier to retrieve something from 20m deep in the ocean than on land (insert any other nonsensical reason) as an excuse why it couldn't nor shouldn't be done. And now they just did exactly that? What a shambles this administration is. As a sample of the why's a balloon can't be shot down over Alaska.... Credo "It entered the US in Alaska. I haven't seen a map of the path, but with such close proximity to Russia, it's a little tricky to shoot something down that may have strayed. Russian and US airspace have little separation in parts of Alaska. " Tug "Ho ho hooo that’s funny naa it’s just being responsible and not getting folks hurt on the ground lmao ????" Pomchop - on why waiting till the previous balloon crossed the entire country before hitting it "Biden did exactly what any sane president would do and that is order it shot down as soon as the experts said it would be safe to do so. ...Biden is the president and does not claim to be an expert on spy balloons, aircrafts, falling debris, possible intelligence salvage....that is why presidents surround themselves with the best and the brightest and don't denigrate/fire every single one of them the minute they give him advice he does not want to hear." and then fast forward a couple of days, to today;s OP and... "The White House announced Friday that President Joe Biden ordered the military to down what it described as a “high-altitude object” hovering over Alaska earlier in the day."

To be fair, and no fan of PM, he did get fired from his job for correctly pointing out Megs was lying.

Yeah, real surprise isn't it. I literally can't think of any of what the left called "conspiracy theories" in the last few years that haven't been proven true. And who would trust a word they say now?

"Let’s start with inflation, which a few months ago hit a 40-year high. In December 2020, the last full month in office for President Donald Trump, the rate of inflation was 1.4%, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The average for the entire year of 2020 was 1.2%, data show. But after Biden killed the Keystone XL pipeline, froze student debt collection, rejoined the Paris climate accords, made a pathway for illegals to gain citizenship, and halted construction on the border wall — all actions he took on Day 1 — inflation started to climb." https://www.dailywire.com/news/by-the-numbers-the-state-of-bidens-america-is-absolutely-abysmal Ah yes, those "competent professionals with a potus that’s smart enough to let them do their jobs" !!!
