  1. The Russia Collusion hoax is the most successful Russian psy op ever mounted against the United States. Paid for by the Democrat Party elite, the Clinton campaign unwittingly colluded (oh, the irony) with Russian intelligence to fracture and destabilise the American political system to such an extent that it still is nowhere near healing over 8 years later. Never before has a political figure been the subject of such partisan hatred and derision as Donald Trump. The sheer volume of negative press, misinformation and disinformation, the blatant lawfare, the continuing, unrelenting efforts to influence the upcoming elections, often without any corroborating evidence, is everything Russia could have hoped for. Russia does not want a second term in the White House for Donald Trump. A Kamala Harris administration represents the continuation of the Washington machine, predictable, easy to plan for, easy to circumvent when necessary. A Trump administration, on the other hand, is distinctly unpredictable. From experience, it operates in an asymmetric fashion, making its actions difficult, if not impossible, to counter. A Trump administration represents risk. Risk that an action could provoke consequences outside the Russian scope of expectation. Risk of the unforeseen. Risk that the cost of any action would be unbearable. It changes the calculations. And Putin and Russia are not good at changing strategy. For Putin, a Harris presidency is eminently preferable. So the campaign continues and the DNC, the Democrat Party as a whole and all their supporters will play along willingly, oblivious or uncaring to the fact that they would be giving Russia what it wants.
  2. Yeah, well, they “checked” Sleepy Joe, didn’t they? It isn’t about the facts, it’s about how well the DNC can hide those facts that could prove a little bothersome.
  3. Meteorologists are the only people to get things wrong more than 50% of the time and still get paid for it. 😎 Climatologists just hide how much they get wrong over a vastly longer period of time.
  4. The downside to THAT bombshell is that the Democrats would likely end up with a more competent candidate (because surely even the DNC is not stupid enough to default to Bumbleface 🤪) and therefore win the Presidential election with ease.
  5. Fact check: Walz makes false claims about Trump on abortion and the economy https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/10/07/politics/fact-check-walz-false-claims-trump-abortion-economy So, is CNN really trying to return to honest journalism and prompt their viewers to reassess their support of the Harris/Walz ticket, or are they counting on the sheep not caring that Bumbleface lies all the time and just putting lipstick on their pig of an institutional bias?
  6. if you out this out as fiction no-one would believe you because the whole thing is so far-fetched and fantastical. Absolutely epic
  7. Iran launches missile attack on Israel WASHINGTON — Iran launched missiles toward Israel, Israel's Defense Forces said in a short statement Tuesday as it urged Israelis to enter bomb shelters. The move was the latest escalation in a weeks-long skirmish between Iran-backed Hezbollah and Israel, and comes days before the the one-year anniversary of Hamas' Oct. 7 attacks on southern Israel. It also comes just as the Jewish high holiday Rosh Hashanah begins at sunset on Wednesday. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2024/10/01/iran-missile-attack-israel/75465364007/ Reports say that Hezbollah has not managed to retaliate for the death of it’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah, so Iran has taken that responsibility upon itself. I doubt the IDF response will be a single air defence missile site this time. ☠️
  8. Confirmation that Hassan Nasrallah was killed in the Israeli airstrike. https://www.bbc.com/news/live/c981g8mrl8lt
  9. if the IDF got one or more thermobaric munitions into the tunnels, then that is huge. In such confined spaces, the effects would be devastating and reach far beyond what a conventional warhead could accomplish. 💀 So far, it seems the IDF is fighting a really smart war against Hezbollah.
  10. What have you got against fluffy rain? 🤔
  11. Anyone calling the A330Neo “small” needs to have their eyes tested and be given a dictionary. 🫣
  12. Because they thought that cellphones would give them cancer? 🤔 What I have seen reported is that Hezbollah considered the cellphone networks not to be secure, so they went another route. Right now, pigeons are fleeing Lebanon in droves 😗
  13. Well, there goes the neighbourhood 🙁
  14. If DJT wins re-election, I would expect to see Maduro depart within a year, as economic sanctions and pressure over the election results crush his ability to govern.
  15. Live updates: Walkie-talkie explosions injure hundreds in Lebanon a day after pager attacks https://apnews.com/live/lebanon-syria-pagers-hezbollah-updates And Hezbollah thought cellphones were bad for their health ☠️
  16. it ALL tastes like chicken … when you have COVID. 😗
  17. Rashida Tlaib may not have had one, but the Iranian Ambassador to Lebanon did. ☠️
  18. Reports say that Hezbollah was getting suspicious (of who or what isn’t mentioned), so the operation was moved up to a stand-alone “attack”, rather than one supported by a ground offensive, as is suggested was the original intent.
