We didn't expect to see the violent insurrectionist ringleader being helped by the cops, that's for sure! Well it seems obvious now why Trump was not allowed a defense in the comittee hearings. "In one of the clips, Capitol Police officers can be seen walking Chansley past seven armed colleagues standing just outside the Senate chamber. The QAnon Shaman is walked around several locked entrances to the chamber before officers seemingly help him open one to enter the Senate." https://www.express.co.uk/news/us/1743217/QAnon-Shaman-Tucker-Carlson-January-6-riot-video-Capitol-Police-dxus

Not sure why the left are so astounded hearing that Tucker does not like Trump on a personal level that it is major headline news? All conservatives have their own ideas and tastes, they are not a homogenous hivemind leaping from one manufactured outrage to the next(eg Russia collusion/Musk/outrage over protecting kids from predators in schools/Kavanaugh/Carlson). Tucker is to be commended for keeping his personal feelings under control to as fairly as possible do his job. And let's remember what a huge week this has been for both Tucker and Trump - what with the whole Jan 6th narrative collapsing and much anger over the footage released that shows the lies and selected footage to misinform the public. Good to see both men concentrating on the important issue not on the distraction and irrelevance of personal feelings and gossip. "“GREAT JOB BY TUCKER CARLSON TONIGHT,” Mr Trump wrote on Truth Social on Tuesday night. “The Unselect Committee of political Hacks & Thugs has been totally discredited. They knowingly refused to show the Videos that mattered. They should be tried for Fraud and Treason, and those imprisoned and being persecuted should be exonerated and released, NOW!” https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-tucker-carlson-jan-6-videos-b2296627.html

Quote "Police Chief Thomas Manger, who denounced Carlson for spreading “offensive and misleading conclusions” about the insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021, including a “disturbing accusation” that Officer Brian Sicknick’s death had nothing to do with the riot." Did this police chief find the false narrative that MAGA rioters bashed him over the head with a fire extinguisher offensive and misleading one wonders? A version of events that proved most fortuitous and that some find hard to let go of. "While chief medical examiner Francisco Diaz said that the events of Jan. 6 "played a role in his condition" that resulted in Sicknick's death, the findings are still a bold departure from claims reported by The New York Times back in January that the officer had been "struck with a fire extinguisher" by the pro-Trump rioters. " https://www.foxnews.com/media/cnn-brian-sicknick-stroke

Democrats speaking in opposites again. The whole footage shows the Q Shaman was politely escorted and guided through the capitol by police. Another false narrative about Q Anon shamen storming the capitol and leading an insurrection bites the dust. Time to arrest the Jan 6th committee and charge them with deliberately withholding evidence that proves the accused to be innocent. Lying is bad. Lying for 2 years and holding farcical show trials they knew were nonsense is a new low in the left's dishonesty - although totally unsurprising after they refused to release footage(nothing to hide, nothing to fear?) Sad so many were taken in by the insurrection narrative. "Virtually every moment of his time inside the Capitol was caught on tape,” says Carlson, who was granted exclusive access by Speaker Kevin McCarthy to 40,000 hours of surveillance footage from that day inside and around the Capitol, which has never been seen before by the public. “The tapes show the Capitol police never stopped Jacob Chansley. They helped him. They acted as his tour guides.” https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/jan-6-footage-shows-capitol-cops-escorting-qanon-shaman-to-senate-floor/ar-AA18iDE3

The general public and voters are not so naive. The trust is gone, say the majority of republicans AND democrats "61% Believe Feds Helped Incite Capitol Riot. Seventy percent (70%) of Republicans, as well as 57% of both Democrats and unaffiliated voters believe it is at least somewhat likely that undercover government agents helped provoke the Capitol riot." https://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/biden_administration/61_believe_feds_helped_incite_capitol_riot As for attacking the whistleblowers, I remember when even mentioning Adam Schiff's whistleblower pal Eric Ciaramella was enough to get you dinged from the internet(because all whistleblowers must be protected was the narrative). Now the democrats are freely doing exactly what they banned us from doing? Nice.

quote "His search for evidence to support that conspiracy theory ended in utter failure." To remind ourselves, the "conspiracy theory" you refer to was the claim by Trump that the Russia Collusion investigation was a hoax concocted by Hillary Clinton to distract from her email server nightmares. The conspiracy theory was proven true in the Robbie Mook court case when he confirmed it DID come from Hillary after all. So your claim that the Durham investigation ended in utter failure is totally false, it ended up with another democrat conspiracy theory being debunked. "The Russia-Trump collusion narrative of 2016 and beyond was a dirty trick for the ages, and now we know it came from the top—candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton. That was the testimony Friday by 2016 Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook in federal court, and while this news is hardly a surprise, it’s still bracing to find her fingerprints on the political weapon. Mr. Mook testified as a witness in special counsel John Durham’s trial of Michael Sussmann, the lawyer accused of lying to the FBI" https://www.wsj.com/articles/hillary-clinton-did-it-robby-mook-michael-sussmann-donald-trump-russia-collusion-alfa-bank-11653084709

Which specific "ad" is this referring to? Why would Murdoch have confidential material from the biden team? The only ad that I remember was the one when biden mocked Trump for walking carefully down a slippery ramp. Of course, that did not age well in light of biden's catastrophic fall from his stationary bicycle, and repeated wipe-outs on the same plane steps that biden mocked trump for being careful on. An absolute farce. "“Some people are always in a hurry,” a narrator says in the opening scene, over a montage of Biden riding a bike, walking away from an Air Force plane, preparing to go onstage and jogging up a ramp. At one point, as the narrator says that some people “race up steps when others take it slow” as a video shows Trump making an unsteady descent on a ramp after giving an address at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in June. That’s juxtaposed with video of Biden jogging up a similar ramp, from an address he gave at the academy." https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/biden-to-troll-trump-with-2-minute-ad-set-to-run-during-renomination-speech/2020/08/26/47ad50c4-e7ef-11ea-97e0-94d2e46e759b_story.html

Fact check. 5 pinnochios. Trump never sent a "lynch mob" to do anything, let alone attack Mike Pence.

If there was no note left, and the girlfriend stood to benefit from his passing I would be very suspicious. But just because a suicide seems odd does not automatically mean foul play. I remember a depressed guy living near me hung himself with his hands tied behind his back(presumably to stop him changing his mind) which caused outrage online but it was just suicide.

I can see why his visit to the environmental catastrophe area and of course the lableak now being reluctantly admitted as most likely is benefitting Trump. It seems like he is being proved correct about contentious issues all the time these days. Funny that. I hate to say this, but trump's time has passed. It was incredibly damaging to democracy all the hoaxes against the guy even 2 silly impeachments but alas what's done is done. Most people can't take 4 more years of unbridled hatred and hoaxes from the media. So better let DeSantis have a go, and if he wins, just pray they will let him serve his term without all the dishonest attacks Trump faced.

Prices are coming down in Samui. Immediately after the law change most weed was 500B+ and hash 1,000B+. Nowadays there are loads of small general stores selling everything that also have some decent weed selections. One nearby tiny shop has about 30 strains and prices are 200-300B, cheaper if buying bulk. This is very reasonable, quality is very good. Proper dense buds nicely dried and cured. I'd advise to avoid any cannabis dispensary in tourist areas and maybe look for reggae flags or weed signs on small mom and pop stores.

Why would there be many many Ph.D. students looking into the origins, when it has been settled science for years? The virus came from a wet market. Anyone questioning the incredible coincidence of a bat virus research facility near the wet market were dubbed "racists"(1), and "conspiracy theorists" and censored and banned from the internet for spreading "disinformation". Can you agree the false smearing and censoring of those using logic and common sense to probe the unlikely coincidence was a mistake? So settled was the science that advertisers were punished for advertising (2)on channels that tried to be honest and discus the possibilities/probabilities of the lab leak. (1)"“Apoorva Mandavilli, a reporter “mainly” covering COVID-19 for the New York Times, believes the lab-leak origin theory for the virus to be by its very nature bigoted. Someday we will stop talking about the lab leak theory and maybe even admit its racist roots. But alas, that day is not today,” she wrote." https://www.nationalreview.com/news/new-york-times-covid-reporter-calls-discussion-of-lab-leak-theory-racist/ (2)"A government-affiliated group that attempted to blacklist conservative networks over "coronavirus conspiracies" is now coming under fire after a federal agency announced its analysis that the lab-leak theory could be true. The Global Disinformation Index reportedly sought to convince advertising companies to distance themselves from and punish conservative websites that suggested the coronavirus may have initially spread because it was leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China." https://www.foxnews.com/politics/government-disinformation-group-fire-punishing-outlets-reported-lab-leak-theory I hope the free thinkers that spoke out loud about the Wuhan institute likely having had a lab leak or accidental release will be uncensored and allowed back online again. Just allowing one side of every debate online has not worked well, particularly in light of the mainstream being flat out wrong about the biggest issues and repeatedly censoring truth to allow democrat party benefitting lies and false narratives to flourish - such as the laptop and the lableak.

Apart from your use of profanity, your rant is completely false, off topic and offensive. I wonder what Kyle would make of this thread, seeing liberals defaming and smearing him and gleefully wishing bad stuff to happen to him? I suppose the blame for this disinformation and hysteria would be the likes of biden(1) falsely accusing him of stuff, and the msm running a false narrative(2) which caused the audible shock in court when it turned out Grosskreutz was pointing a gun at Kyle when he got shot, and as the censored conservatives tried to point out he was acting in SELF DEFENCE. (1)https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/kyle-rittenhouses-mother-says-biden-defamed-son-suggesting-white-supre-rcna5453 (2)https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/nov/26/jerrold-nadler/nadler-wrong-claim-rittenhouse-crossed-state-line-/

You call for violence against this poor persecuted kid. So appalling. He acted in self defence to stop the rioter shooting him. I suspect you are a victim of the fake news narratives surrounding this case that prohibited the facts being discussed. Facts that proved the act was self defence not some young MAGA racist that wanted to shoot minorities. "Prosecutor Thomas Binger asked Grosskreutz why he didn’t shoot first. “That’s not the kind of person that I am. That’s not why I was out there,” he said. “It’s not who I am. And definitely not somebody I would want to become.” But during cross-examination, Rittenhouse defense attorney Corey Chirafisi asked: “It wasn’t until you pointed your gun at him, advanced on him … that he fired, right?” “Correct,” Grosskreutz replied." https://www.politico.com/news/2021/11/08/shooting-victim-kyle-rittenhouse-520336 remember that? the moment the whole narrative collapsed.

"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?
