"I know that I know nothing"

Posts Replies Media

What a week. Labour wins a historic, huge victory in Britain, and then, out of NOWHERE, the French Left wins a huge upset victory in France. Polls were wrong. The reaction to the fascists in the UK and France has been huge. Now it is our turn.

WOAH! THE FRENCH LEFT WINS A HUGE UPSET IN FRANCE!

Polls are closed in France. Here goes nothing... www.resultats-elections.interieur.gouv.fr/legislatives...

Fingers crossed for France. I want them to avoid the worst case and, if needed, settle for the bad case, all while hoping for the best case.

TRUMP: I am going to drop daisy-cutter bombs on Seattle just cuz BIDEN: I'll have the Bob Salad — ha, COBB Salad, whoops. NYT: Biden's Gaffe Sends Shockwaves Through Democratic Party; Trump Pledges Infrastructure Changes to Northwest

what are we doing here? he accidentally said million instead of billion and then immediately knew it and corrected himself. he didn’t “flub a line” and then “make an effort to correct himself,” he did the speaking equivalent of a typo that you know you’ve made and instantly correct

Former Prime Minister Liz Truss has lost her parliamentary election. No doubt her handiwork has a lot to do with the Conservative blowout tonight.

Jacob Rees-Mogg was defeated! Yippee!

I think it is really interesting that each UK candidate has to stand side-by-side on a stage as the local elections-chief announces vote totals for each candidate in the constituency. They just have to stand there and hear the number and try not to look miserable.

Big victory for Labour — so big that the NYT just gave Sir Keir his own version of ‘Joe Biden Is Old’

The polls have closed in the UK. The time has come to get this party started and watch the results come it.

July 4th is very rough on my dog (he is a royalist and considers George Washington a traitor)

Happy Independence Day 2024: We are all redcoats now! 🇬🇧

It's Independence Day, and you know what that means? It means it is election day in the United Kingdom! All who celebrate, cry out: yippee!

Pretty remarkable that the complete re-ordering of our system of government couldn't survive a full news cycle before we were back to the "Joe Must Go" wall-to-wall drumbeat. The scalp shall be delivered, no matter the costs, says CNN and the New York Times.

HOLY CRAP IT WAS ONE DEBATE! My goodness all this pearl clutching is pathetic.

I wonder if there is a correlation between having eleventy-billion articles day-after-day about how "Joe Needs to Go" versus people earning a living getting people to click on the articles they write?

HOLY CRAP IT WAS ONE DEBATE! My goodness all this pearl clutching is pathetic.

In a few days we will celebrate Independence Day. The point of declaring independence was rejecting a divine right of kings, instead asserting natural rights governed by the rule of law, with none above it. Rejected in 2024, we get a privileged class above the law: incumbent and former presidents.

Hey because of TOTAL lifetime immunity for official acts, Trump can order his Department of Homeland Security to build his long promised immigrant concentration camps everywhere... but with ovens! Why not go all the way? Free ride for life, no matter how many millions he kills.

THE sentence of the day: A Macronist incumbent in the Marseille region came in 3rd in her seat. She just dropped out to support the left. She said, about why she's maneuvering to block the far-right: "Defeats happen, but you can never recover from dishonor."

Today 6 members of the Supreme Court declared political leaders in 1974 to be wrong, including Goldwater and Kissinger, even Nixon himself, as well as President Ford - they were wrong about Nixon committing a crime. The court today declared everything Richard Nixon did was actually perfectly legal.

THE PRESIDENT HAS NO ROLE IN THE ADMINISTRTION OF ELECTIONS.

SCOTUS is doing this because they know Joe Biden will not order the military to round up the members of the Supreme Court and execute them. Trump might if they upset him in his second term. But they're safe in knowing Biden definitely won't.

The Supreme Court is a joke - a collection of intellectually dishonest political hacks, their principal objective is advancing the interest of their political party above all other considerations.

My goodness the "liberal media" is working overtime trying to will into being a Biden withdrawal crisis. They want this story so bad, it infects everything said or written - impartiality is gone; they're wearing it on their sleeves without a care who knows it. But Biden ain't going anywhere, folks!

NYT: Joe should quit, he stutters Philly Inquirer: Trump is a fucking criminal what the fuck are we doing here

God Bless Paul Davies and the @PhillyInquirer: "The only person who should withdraw from the race is Trump...There was only one person at the debate who does not deserve to be running for president. The sooner Trump exits the stage, the better off the country will be."

To serve his country, Donald Trump should leave the race | Editorial Boardwww.inquirer.com Biden had a horrible night Thursday. But the debate about the debate is misplaced. The only person who should withdraw from the race is Trump.

I'm impressed everyone has fully flushed out, thoroughly deliberated, complete arguments with pre-rebuttal for how and why the Democratic Party should replace Joe Biden. Like, everyone who writes words has this, and posted it last night or today. It's quite a feat.

The liberal media. With friends like these 😧

Well, I missed the debate and am... debating... if I should watch it. I had planned to, but The Entire Media, even Leftwing, is telling me Trump crushed it, the election is over, and Biden should drop out. I have a hard time accepting the Universal Narrative, but maybe it is true?

Christians are going out of their way to ensure absolutely everybody in America is a devout atheist within 50 years. Because you know how to make people *hate* something? Require it. Death & Taxes.
