I just read that article and IMO I think it clears him of a "Nazi" fetish as that seems to be just a portion of an extensive collection that ranges from the extreme left to the extreme right. Heck he has statues of Churchill and Thatcher who he claims are his hero's. Nothing indicates the latter is not the truth and if Churchill is his hero that is a big indicator that he is not sympathetic to Nazis. I hate when people seize on bits and pieces about anyone (left or right - my co-worker does it all the time about Biden) to paint a disingenuous picture.

This is hilarious.

The conservatives are talking about disingenuous pictures. Was it disingenuous when SCOTUS tossed 50 years of precedent in the shitter and took abortion rights away from women and gave it to the states? Was it disingenuous when a radical SCOTUS judge tried to hide his wealthy friends paying for plenty of his vacations for the last 20 years?

A seminal moment in Warpath history. What a waste of a conversation. I leave with this: What do the words ethics/principles/precedent mean to you?

Collections and what they mean aside. The donor was completely schmoozing a SCJ to get his policy preferences on the books. And we are not talking about tickets to a game. This is super unethical and anyone who says differently has blinders on because it makes their side look bad.

Why was Democrat leader Hakim Jefferies invited and introduced by Harlen Crow a couple weeks ago speak at Crows business? Why would Jefferies being hanging with Nazis? Nazis hang with Nazis, amirite?

Also Democratic Whip Clark was there with Dem Pete Aguilar. Both now confirmed Nazis

Mooby please stay off Reddit, it’s 4chan but the other side.

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever

I'll have to watch the other Jon Stewart clip recently posted. But this one was fantastic. And this same bullshit has been going on well before Biden. So not posting this because it's a democrat appointee. It's just the general disdain government officials across the board have for honesty. The government, both sides, are the fucking problem. And if you want to blame 1 side more than the other, go for it. But you'll either just be being dishonest about your sides blame or bragging about being only 38% of the problem.



The American people are fucking awesome, our government is a fucking embarrassment.

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever

Is there 1 capitol* city in any of the 50 states, that votes more right than left? Even in states like Mississippi or Alabama, etc., that are clearly right leaning overall? If not, which we all don't even need to actually lookup, why is that?

I love John Stewart. Honestly think he should be in Office. Watched the whole clip . I all so want to say I have two daughters who are married to Military men and have been living the a Military family lifestyle for a long time. Stewart makes very good points BUT so did she. Stewart tried to tie up audits and taking care of your personnel and she was right it's two different things. I work for the Maryland State Government and auditors and the budget writers are two different factions. Auditors are concerned with where is it and do you have and can account for all you are suppose to have.

Taking care of the Military personnel and their families is a whole separate issue. Deciding where that 850 billion goes is not up to the auditors but to budget committees(not sure what they are really called). No argument from me that more needs to be done but John was wrong saying the can't show them where the money went in an audit. I thought she was pretty prepared for him. To add this has been an issue for decades not just under Biden but my kids have lived through this with trump, Obama and Bush and they all failed!

I commend him for his patience. I found her to be quite disrespectful, and he didn't let it bother him.

I understand you can't account for every dollar, but to me it just came off like, no big deal, the cost of doing business means losing track of hundreds of millions of dollars and is ho-hum, whatever, and expected. And don't question it.

There is an easy answer to this. It is cities in general not just capitol cities. It involves land claims from centuries ago. It involves segregation. It is why all the rural areas vote mostly right.

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever

We need WAY more interviews like this across the spectrum. Huge fan of asking legitimate tough questions to government officials and making them actually answer. So many interviews are just cute little toss-ups to whoever is being interviewed, even if organized around "tough questions". Most times a tough question gets asked, and then whoever answers just goes on some tangent w/o actually answering the question, then they just move on. I hope Stewart keeps doing interviews like these, for government officials on both sides.

This is a topic that actually interests me, I need to look on Amazon to see if there are at least somewhat recent books on this subject. Not saying above isn't at least part of it, but I feel like there has to be way more to it than that.
