It’s also very likely that he wanted to keep it from his wife because the prenuptial agreement gives her more money if she divorces him after an affair.

Trump has said multiple times that he will use the Justice department against his enemies, deport people for protesting in ways he doesn’t like and all government officials will be vetted for personal loyalty to Trump. If Garrison actually cared about justice he would be attacking Trump first.
It just goes to show how a lot of modern Republicans are not interested in fairness or truth, they are just looking to get the liberals.

Charlie Kirk #wingnut

It was done under advice of counsel.

Trump has said this a lot but didn’t try to bring this as a defense in court and the case that was made in court rejects it. In court his lawyers made the case that Trump didn’t know what the money was being used for. For advice of counsel to apply he would have to know what the money was being used for but relying on his lawyers word that it’s legal. Only one of these two things can be true, either the case Trump just made in court was a lie or advice of council doesn’t apply.
Honestly I’m not sure which is the case. Trump and his lawyers may have decided not to use advice of council for a different reason. Trump has to take the stand if he uses an advice of council defense because Trump’s understanding and beliefs about the situation are directly material. Opening Trump to questions by the prosecution would be really risky even when limited to matters of this case.

Stew Peters and Sean Hibbeler #conspiracy #crackpot #dunning-kruger #fundie

This is just getting actively stupid. The claim about prehistoric and very early construction is wrong but you can understand it. Wondering how various groups managed the effort to build large stone buildings with only the most basic of tools.
The Chicago Federal Building is 1900, we have pictures of it being built. It would be an absurdly huge conspiracy that serves no purpose. This has advanced to the level of absurd reality denying conspiracy.

But what about photos of buildings from the 20th century while they were clearly under construction? Hibbeler told Peters that those were all faked too

If there was actually a conspiracy on that sort of scale you would be dead for trying to reveal it, not producing cheap film trying to show it’s wrong.

According to the individual referred to as the “new Nostradamus,” when will the Third World War start?

If WW III was/is going to happen now it has already started in Ukraine. I don’t know of anybody who predicted it before Russia began amassing troops on the border.

Frosty Wooldridge #racist #wingnut #conspiracy

we have become the greatest nation on Earth because our system worked on individual effort, individual excellence, and proven merit. Individuals rise to their highest levels of excellence based on their education, dogged determination and personal choices.

The US became the greatest nation on Earth because it was the only industrial nation not trashed by WWII. Individual merit is important but the single biggest indicator that a person with be wealthy is having wealthy parents, merit has always been secondary to luck.
DEI isn’t about reducing merit, it’s about insuring everybody has a chance to show it.

Wayne Allyn Root #conspiracy #wingnut

I wonder if Root knows that Red Dawn was a bad movie (with even worse remake) or if it’s just something he picked up from right wing conspiracy theorists.
The whole southern border thing is getting weird. The right is pushing a mix of real concerns and bogus ones, driven more by racism and fear of the unknown then serious analysis of risks. This makes the problems harder to deal with and the Republicans are not trying to help. The biggest obstacle is now Republicans that just refuse to work with Democrats, even to pass bills they proposed when Trump was in office.

Ray Comfort #fundie

Hell gets more time even from preachers, who are often obsessed with describing the tortures that will be inflicted. What descriptions exist often are so weird or incoherent that churches don’t want to talk about them. Several descriptions I have seen say that all worldly marriages will be dissolved and everybody will be a bride of Jesus. There won’t be any sex at all so it won’t be weird.

Trump will bail on Ukraine. Not because of banks but because Putin will ask for it and Trump doesn’t care about anything outside the US. Trump doesn’t want to be in any conflict that might stain his reputation so he will get out while he can blame Biden for it.

The bit about square roots sounds like yet another person hung up on the square root of two not being a rational number. That something so basic could be irrational has been messing people up since the Greeks developed math enough to realize it.

Do some research on insects, parasites and swarming creatures. That will show you just how much chaos, deception and exploitation is built into nature.

Bryan K Starr #fundie #wingnut

In the right corner you have Trump, a man who seriously wants to push American values, including Christian values and like many people has his own faults to deal with.

Trump has all of Biden’s faults plus a whole bunch of his own that Biden doesn’t have. The only Christian value he wants to push is hypocrisy. He doesn’t care about American values at all, it’s all just a cover for self interest.
The only reason Trump doesn’t classify as an outright fascist is that fascists use violence to advance their cause. Trump’s too much of a coward to use violence, get close to violence or even directly order his followers to violence. He can’t even get to “Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?” level stuff. The best he can do is “If this case against me is continued bad things might happen because the patriotic Americans who believe in me will be upset.”

Jim #wingnut #conspiracy #racist

I am pretty sure that the real vote for Biden, real in the sense of physical people physically showing up at the polling booth on election day, is somewhere down around ten or fifteen percent

That is a delusion level number. Depending on which poll you look at the largest party in the US is Democratic or no party. Republicans come in third. They are competitive nationally only because the US’s voting system over represents low population conservative states.

Conspiracy theorists do this all the time but usually by replacing it with a new conspiracy and dumping on their old one.

Eric Hovind #fundie

This is just projection of the common “God is real because the bible says so because god says the bible is true” loop into an atheist argument. It doesn’t work because no real atheist goes past step 2. “There is no evidence for God.” doesn’t need a reason, it stands on it’s own.

Brother Nathanael #racist #wingnut #conspiracy

This sort of thing really annoys me. When conspiracy theorists tie real problems to their imaginary problems it discredits the real problems. There are real problems with there not being enough housing in the US and with corporate landlords buying up too much. Trying to tie this into his antisemitic conspiracy theories just makes it all look bad.

An Angry Patriot #wingnut #quack #conspiracy #psycho

There is an immense potential for these “patriot” groups to turn into local terrorists but they are not a threat to the country. As soon as they try to gather in number they come under fire from the USA’s absurdly powerful Air Force. It’s only as small terrorist cells that they can be effective. Americans, left or right, don’t respond well to threats and these groups would be rejected quickly.

There will be some political dancing around and then nothing will change in Iran. The president isn’t the top of the heap in Iran, the head of the church is. Ebrahim Raisi was likely to be the next Ayatollah but there are others that can take the job.

Robert Spencer #homophobia

The author does get one bit right. Butker is taking a moderate amount of flack because his entire speech could go here but the NFL isn’t being aggressive because going overboard on Butker would hurt the league.
His defense of Butker amounts to saying Butker’s position would be taken as obvious until about 2 centuries ago. This is more condemnation then support but the author doesn’t grasp this.

Having these decisions made by kids is not optimal but they are decisions that can’t be made later in life. Puberty can’t be reversed, the decision on which way to go through must be made before. The harm from delaying is worse then the small chance of making the wrong decision.

Neither side has clean hands in this. Israel has actually supported Hamas over the years so they had an alternative to the PLO and could split the support of the Palestinians.

Geez, I’m going to see Obama derangement syndrome for the rest of my life. They just can’t let it go that a black man won 2 terms in office.

The rest of it is run of the mill garbage. The only part that is funny is realizing this is from a Catholic.

Byl Holte #conspiracy #fundie #wingnut

A big part of the reason all of these cases are coming up at the same time is because Trump tried to stall by playing the court schedules off against each other. Saying that the cases required so much work he couldn’t defend himself properly if he was in so many different courts at once. This didn’t really work because the judges said that his lawyers could handle the pretrial motions in different cases at the same time. It was only during the few weeks of testimony that the cases couldn’t overlap.
He also gambled that the DOJ wouldn’t bring a case during the campaign because they had dithered about bringing a case against an ex-president but that didn’t work either.

Russia doesn’t have demographic stability. The population has been flat or dropped every year since 2000 and looks to be getting worse. That is before factoring in the war in Ukraine but the long term effect of that is hard to tell because Russia is hiring a lot of the expendable foot soldiers from other countries.
Russia has the same problem China does. The young people hate the government, don’t see work as a viable option and don’t buy into the rigged votes but don’t think they can change or overthrow the government either. So they do the minimum to get by and spend a lot of time playing video games. This leads to a slow paced collapse where industry and population drop.

Lets see just how far out of reality he is here:
1: Not Democratic policy. Caused by Republican resistance to sensible insurance, private or national.
2: Not Democratic policy, not suggested by anybody in this reality.
3: Not Democratic policy, not this reality again.
4: In extreme cases yes. It isn’t a good solution but if telling the parents is risky it may be the best option.
5: Fear mongering for a problem that doesn’t doesn’t exist.
6: Well at least here he is talking about something that could be a real problem. Doesn’t happen enough to matter.
Not really tethered to reality, just accidentally has a few points of overlap.

Trump would deploy U.S. Special Forces troops in MEXICO and issue “kill lists” of cartel leaders

Like the troops in Afghanistan stopped the drug trade there? Mexico would be even harder because the cartels are better equipped. There would be some splashy kills of cartel leaders until they hid well enough but you want to know what that does to the cartels? Nothing, their leaders get taken out every so often and they just get replaced.

Noem was trying for Republican VP, the opinion of Democrats really didn’t matter. This destroyed her because it was unpopular with everybody. The hard right was more “Why would we want you as VP if you can’t train a dog?” then “OMG you killed a puppy.” but it ruined her reputation across the spectrum.

Christians demanding that everything conform to their expectations of society?

He is confusing involuntary and subconscious actions for cybernetic remote control, thinking that if he isn’t actively directing some action it’s somebody controlling his body. Particularly amusing since his instinctive way of eating chips is too grab a handful and shove them in his face. Why would somebody be controlling his body to do this?

Most people cannot name a white Christian nationalist or say they know one personally.

Just because they don’t wear a WCN armband doesn’t mean they are not a white Christian nationalist. Many that are WCNs intentionally hide this, only talking indirectly about what they believe or hiding behind code words or only talking about it online. Some are without even realizing it, the Christian patriot who wears his patriotism on his sleeve may be one without realizing his ideas of Christianity and America are warped.

Harmonica #racist

I have never heard anybody make the claim in the first paragraph. The only time I have every heard people say that the war was good for white southerns was either because it was said that it broke up the plantation system that kept much of the white population poor also, or that morally it was better for white people.

It’s claimed the consolidation and reforming of the United States after the War ensured that the Union remained overwhelmingly White and thus the threat of a black revolution was mitigated

This sounds like either you were talking with some neo-nazis or you grossly misunderstood what was being said.

Kevin Downey Jr. #fundie #dunning-kruger

You know he is starting on bad ground when he conflates Marxists and American Democrats. Neither side has any exclusive claim to this crime but it’s more common on the right then left. And you can see how much cover they Republicans give in the treatment of Matt Gaetz. Who has been given cover by the Republican leadership for sleeping with at least one underage girls despite his working to piss off the party leadership.

This greatly over states the impact of Postmodernism. It was heavy in art but when carried over into science there just are fundamental facts that are not subjective. It survived for a while because it had some useful things to say about people projecting specific, usually European, world views onto things that are not European. Getting out of the European view of why rulers do things helps to make sense of the Chinese emperors and it helps to view quantum mechanics, where the math works even if it makes no sense to humans.
At this point it’s actually the far right that is the most Postmodern in view. Thinking they can rewrite history to suit their current political beliefs.

DanlBoon #wingnut #crackpot #racist #conspiracy

Classic cultist behavior. The whole Q-Anon has run past the dates predicted for the end of the world/rapture/second coming/arrival of quantum banking/etc. Instead of questioning the idea, he is wondering what is holding it up and making excuses for why it hasn’t happened.

Heather Mac Donald and Megyn Kelly #racist #wingnut #conspiracy

The idea of limited government is a right wing invention, it isn’t part of the idea of the Enlightenment. Some writers did mention the limitations of government but they were talking about the need for the government to represent a majority of the population. Something the American right doesn’t believe in.

Dave Shanken #pratt #wingnut

First of all, the Liberals are the dominant group politically in the US and other Western nations. Therefore what Liberals want they usually get; no surprise to anyone with a knowledge of human events.

This is misleading in several ways. In most countries the power cycles back and forth between liberal and conservative parties. The distribution of liberal and conservative is distorted by the voting systems, parliamentary countries usually have more parties and generally more honest voting. In several European countries the largest conservative party is to the left of the American Democratic party. American politics get even weirder when you look at history because the Republicans were the liberal party and the Democrats the conservative party but switched place over time.

Also, while JFK might be classified as Liberal, in no way could Thomas Jefferson be considered Liberal.

To a certain extent that is true but at the same time all of the founding fathers basically fall into the liberal for the period category. The conservatives of the period were Redcoats and wanted to remain part of the British Empire.

Wayne Allyn Root #forced-birth #wingnut

Well, he is mostly consistent here and he is likely right that this will kill Noem’s career.
He loses it at the end with “value life” because the Republican side is valuing life except the mother. Some states are going with blanket abortion bans that block abortion of ectopic pregnancies, which is just condemning people to death.

Alexander G. Markovsky #psycho #wingnut #racist

Gangs of Hamas terrorists launched a violent assault on Israel, indiscriminately raping and killing women and children, torturing its soldiers, and taking hostages

Hamas is a single organization and there was nothing indiscriminate about the attack. Taking hostages in Israel and getting them back to Gaza before Israel could react took a lot of planning.

The indiscriminate bombing of Gaza appeared more as an act of desperation rather than a well-planned military campaign.

It was messy but that was one of the goals. The government of Israel wants to depopulate the Gaza strip and send the Palestinians someplace else. Destroying the housing, roads and support systems in Gaza to the point that the Palestinians can’t live there helps justify Israel forcing them out.

Therefore, terror cannot be defeated through conventional warfare. The terror can be conquered only with greater terror

Trying to deal with terrorists through more terror makes you a bigger monster and never really solves the problem. The real solution to dealing with terrorists is giving the population an alternative. Israel never wanted to do that because they never wanted a viable Palestinian state or government.

Bacon Sarny-Geddon #transphobia #dunning-kruger

Even the most hardline, fundamentalist Christians, Muslims or Scientologists aren't AS authoritarian and intolerant as you're being (by silencing non-believers

The core fundamentalists of those faiths make canceling people look like a joke. The hard line Christians and Muslims have resorted to mass killing people who disagree with their faith. The Scientologists have not gone that far only because they have not had the power, being limited to brutal harassment for the most part.

Trump doesn’t look as different for 2 reasons. First his appearance is a makeup job. His skin color is so artificial that it’s funny and you can see the edges when his cloths don’t fit well. Second, the responsibilities didn’t weigh on him like a normal person because he doesn’t think about them.

What makes this so sad/funny is that WAR isn’t complaining that the Ukrainian support passed, he is complaining that it was a bipartisan coalition that passed it. He is actively complaining that our government functioned, he would rather it failed then Republicans and Democrats work together.
