The media & WHO should stand trial for the damage they have done. The whole Bogus virus epidemic was it just herd mentality gone wild or was there an agenda behind it i.e., the globalists or to bring marshal law to the masses in Europe as the economy falls apart maybe just blame Corona. Through out history the corrupt always hide behind their army though the masses they have screwed over always put them to death.
Trump finally points out that the flu this season will kill 50,000 in the US this year as well as the number of deaths from auto accidents is higher yet & they do not stop people from driving.
Holy Jeeze ..... that guy Trump is such a good performer.
He has his act down pat and delivers it with such a Personality of Pursuasion.
I was impressed with his appearance in TV-Land today.
The guy even wants people living on Mars and hopefully by Christmas time. Maybe building prisons on Mars to house the numerous unruly protesters.
^ Confirmation of comment (underline & bold) from post #686:
... This is Trump's circle, the people he surrounds himself with. Like Trump himself, they are cheats, con men, and borderline criminals.Trump & gang ARE the swamp.
Who always hire the best... for example, a Postmaster General who doesn't know how much it costs to mail a postcard.
I mean, not asking a lot, but should have some basic idea of the products your organization provides and charges given that the prices are mandated by Congress.
Agree. Very literally, the fat billionaire has told the people to "shut up and get back to work", while hundreds of thousands of them die.
The aristocracy in the USA had better hope that the lower classes don't turn on them. I believe they will continue to use the divide and conquer method, which is what's been used in the last few years to prevent the lower classes from realizing their common aim, and organizing into a single force that turns on the ultra rich.
Then he landed one of his most powerful lines: “I take it as a personal insult that people would think I would have a 37-year friendship with a racist,” Walker said. “Growing up in the Deep South, I have seen racism up close. I know what it is. And it isn’t Donald Trump.”
Will Jerry Falwell Jr. give his scheduled speech at the GOP convention, after the breaking scandal of him watching his wife doing the pool boy for years ?
Rittenhouse attended a rally for president Donald Trump in Des Moines, Iowa, on Jan. 30., according to a TikTok he posted from the event, BuzzFeed News first reported.
Court records list his occupation as a YMCA lifeguard, according to CBS News, and in his now-deleted Facebook profile, Rittenhouse posted several photos supporting Blue Lives Matter as well as a banner photo of himself holding an assault weapon.
Of course he's a Trump / MAGA nut. Did you think he was a feminist or a queer activist or something? How many feminists show up at public demonstrations carrying semiautomatic weapons?
The entire M.O. is that of a Trump cult member and right-wing extremist.
It's no accident that this shooting happened while the Trump people are stoking fears about "law and order" in their Republican convention. Absolutely not an accident that immediately after they gave passionate speeches about how order needs to be brought back to the streets, that the young radical (Rittenhouse), who is pro-Trump and pro-police, picks up his gun, then goes and shoots into a crowded street.
"I'm bringing law and order to 'murica!" - thinks the MAGA moron, as he murders people in the streets.
The Republicans use the law and order storyline as a way to motivate their fearful voter base to show up and vote. Kind of an old trick, started by Nixon and Reagan.
Trump has blood on his hands. He's going to spur more people to commit acts of violence, too. We already know he doesn't care about American lives, otherwise, well, he would be trying to stop the disease outbreak. 180,000 Americans dead. I'm convinced that he has no concern at all for the lives of citizens. I think he'd rather encourage gun fights in the streets (militia attacks) due to the excitement and propaganda it will yield, than risk losing the election.

The ironic part of the whole campaign is that the Republicans are using the current situation saying that this is what is going to happen if Biden gets elected president... um, did you forget that it is going on now while Trump is president?
"We need to protect American citizens from the Radical Terrorists who demand that our politicians enact laws to distribute and share the wealth generated by our society more responsibly and equitably."
There is video evidence that Kyle was shot at first by at least one of the 3 attackers. He was defending himself against an armed mob. Once again only part of the story is told by the far left on this site.
Why is james allowed to call Trump a murdering moron (post #712) with impunity and no sanctions from CMF but other people are not allowed to say that Biden engages in appropriate behaviour when there is actual video evidence of his actions? Video evidence from C-span and several mainstream media outlets?
Even far left NYT says he was chased by several people and other shots were fired. At least they admitted that he turned himself in after. Clearly those are not the actions of a murdering thug, but those of a scared teenager forced to defend himself against an armed attack.
One has to wonder why doesn't NYT track any Antifa or BLM thugs that have shot people, many of them innocent?
I don't think that this shooter intended to hurt anybody.
I think he just dressed up like John Wayne and he meant to do good with a "Show of Force" only. I don't think the guy ever dreamed that he would actually shoot the weapon on a downtown street.
People need to get just as angry about racism and inequality within our society as the Capitalist's loud complaints about property destruction..

President Putin has already said in the recent past that negotiating with Team Trump is like playing chess with a pigeon: the demented bird walks all over the chessboard, shits indiscriminately, knocks over pieces, declares victory, then runs away.
Upon hearing that the Republican Convention this year would have no actual platform, just a pledge of loyalty and support to the whims and person of Donald J. Trump…
I pledge allegiance
To the Trump,
And his polarized states of America.
And to all the lackeys
Enabling his reign:
One hustle, under Don,
Unindictable,
With fraudulence
And cruelty
For all.

Actually the gun is fine to own and carry openly in the US. It would be illegal now in Canada.
Imo the fools chasing a guy with a gun show little regard for their own lives in an effort to try assault a kid. Unfortunately Kenosha is not Portland... people were out armed & in force to protect property. Police made a mistake isolating the kid from his friends making it open season on him.
Unless some law & order is restored this is most likely the tip of the start of vigilantism and will play into extremists hands.
Oh...bit more news...the guy the kid wounded had a gun in his hand about to off the kid...turns out he is a felon & previously banned from owning firearms.
The defense that he was protecting himself or someone else might be interesting, if there was any evidence that it were true.
The police are reporting that Rittenhouse called a friend and said he shot someone.....and then went on to shoot two others.
That blows the defense theory right out of the water.
The facts are that he was in illegal possession of a weapon and had crossed state lines and shot people. Then he crossed state lines and returned home.
There appear to be a bunch of felonies mixed up in all that, including first degree felonies for intentional murder.
Rittenhouse will soon be discarded by the "law and order" alt right when he is no longer useful to them.
He best hope he gets sent back to Wisconsin for trial where the death penalty was been abolished in 1853.
Indiana, where he is currently detained retains the death penalty, with their last execution held in 2009.
Rittenhouse is going to spend the rest of his natural life in prison.

It's because many of them have been radicalized and are firmly in the "extremist" camp.
An extremist has such an ideologically driven, warped sense of reality that he can watch a man with a semiautomatic gun blast away people in public and still rationalize it.
These are dangerous people. If you know someone who defends far-right violence and shows signs of radicalization, you should report him to the RCMP. We've had some devastating far-right terrorist attacks in Canada/US/New Zealand, and just last month one of these guys tried to assassinate the Prime Minister. There is an immediate, present-day threat from these guys, and they are fed by the dangerous American influence. Be vigilant and report people who are radicalized:
One of the guys that Rittenhouse shot (wounded in the arm) was holding a gun, according to police.
The wounded guy's lawyer on CNN refused to answer the question if he had a gun.
Even as a "victim" he already has a lawyer so I suspect it is because he is in serious trouble of his own for illegal gun possession.
Nevertheless, Rittenhouse killed a guy before encountering that man, and killed another one after he shot and wounded the man........so the timeline isn't good for Rittenhouse.
The last guy Rittenhouse killed tried to knock him out with a skateboard but Rittenhouse shot and killed him. Fox News has been ridiculously stupid on the fact the guy had a skateboard with some actually saying a skateboard is a weapon which in the hands of a trained assassin could cut someone's head off.
I don't see much of a viable defense for Rittenhouse, and he will likely try to work a plea deal. I doubt the DA will agree to one though.
About the only bargaining power that Rittenhouse has is to agree to a plea guilty in exchange for being put in a prison close to his family.
Imagine you're on a public street. You own a handgun for protection (your right as an American). You see this wild-eyed terrorist carrying a semiautomatic weapon, and he's just shot and killed someone. Remember, people were screaming that this man just shot someone.
The terrorist is coming down the street with his weapon aimed at the public, on a shooting rampage. He's coming towards you.
This is a no-brainer. What do gun advocates always say? What do Republicans always say? You take out your handgun and stop the terrorist!
People like @Eder lack all critical thinking, brainwashed by Fox News's extremist propaganda. You see a shooter on the rampage and you are about to be killed. Of course you smack him with your skateboard! You try to shoot him, hit him, stab him, you do whatever you can to stop the terrorist.
In fact it would be great if a crowd swarmed him to try and pin down and disarm the terrorist. Which is exactly what this crowd tried to do.

He'll be fine. He's white, and has connections to police ... that's usually a free pass. Remember, the police let him just walk past them fresh after he killed two people.
Having actually worked with law enforcement, including the DHS myself, I can tell you that there's a massive blind spot for white extremists. Because most of the people in charge are right-leaning old white men, they have a strong tendency to ignore white extremist threats. It's literally a blind spot: they don't even see the guys. It's a problem in the RCMP as well.
I guess this BLM activist murdered someone today in Portland...how bout an explanation? or more pure BS.
I won't link to the murder video but this guy with a black accomplice hunted down & murdered a Trump supporter.
