Hey remember when Trump leaned on NOAA to change their storm report? The (soon to be fired, I'm sure) IG report is out and unredacted.

quote:

Four days after the tweets, then acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney sent Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross an email after 9 p.m., saying “it appears as if the NWS intentionally contradicted the president. And we need to know why. He wants either a correction or an explanation or both.”

That triggered a series of texts, emails and phone calls involving Ross underlings, especially Department of Commerce Chief of Staff Michael J. Walsh Jr. from 1 a.m. to 3:43 a.m., laying the groundwork for a NOAA statement that came out the next day.

Jacobs said “things went crazy in the middle of the night.”

If 10% or so of the population dies, it opens up that many jobs and that will grow the economy by 40%!

A right-wing shitter tied into the Trump/WH just said that Roger Stone got his sentence commuted, and he's likely a good source for that kind of thing (lol Friday night news dump), so at least Stone's still a felon!

EDIT: Also it's entirely possible to get pissed off about the possibility of the bounties and Trump not doing poo poo about it while also maintaining the belief that we should probably get the gently caress out of Afghanistan. These things aren't mutually exclusive unless you're a moron.

Wondering what exactly there is to get pissed about? I mentioned in other threads, but haven't been given a good example. Do people believe that we were not dying in afghanistan until this started? That the afghanis needed a reason to kill us?

That this is somehow unusual in war?


Basically can we not let our need to be pissed at Trump not have us arguing with some neocon fantasy of a happy little plantation colony until the nasty outside organizers showed up?

The point isn't that there were bounties, the point is that Trump knew about them and not only did nothing, but actively continued to try and let Russia back into the G8.

- Barr calling it fair two days ago
- endless news cycles of Stone poo poo
- a trial
- doing all this in an election
- waiting until Stone said I DIDN'T RAT ON TRUMP I DESERVE A COMMUTATION

Acebuckeye put it much nicer than I'm about to.


One of my friends was killed in Afghanistan last year. The attack he was killed in has been pointed at as one that is connected to the bounty issue. We knew when he left there was a chance that he might not come home but I don't think any of us had "Killed as a result of a bounty program setup by the GRU" on our bingo cards.

I don't think myself or anyone here want Trump or anyone else to keep troops in Afghanistan because of this, but doing nothing in response and then trying to force Russia back into the G8? You're god drat right I'm pissed.

I'm curious to hear your thoughts on the JFK assassination.

I'm not white knighting the CIA here, but for people who have spent any time in or around the incompetence of the federal government you are pretty quick to jump on the "secret CIA conspiracy" bandwagon instead of believing that an explicit adversary of the US is using the same tactics we did almost 40 years ago for the same strategic purpose.

Like, take a breath and remember that Occam's Razor is still a thing.

The conspiracy is far more lame in my brain than the heyday of actual 60s fuckery. CIA has arrangements Afghanistan because duh. These range from heroin pickups to warlord chai tea parties. Real day to day poo poo that have been established for 20 year. This poo poo is so mechanical that it gets put into continuity books. The CIA gets a pipeline of military grunt officers to be their Uber, secure storage, and a Popeyes food court as long as the military remains in Afghanistan. CIA is NEVER leaving that region, so I believe they do gently caress gently caress games to keep a reason around to keep the troops there.

Somebody dumb is still cooking things in Afghanistan to turn out training opportunities for empty suits like Buttigeig. That is my conspiracy, we remain there for officer bullets.

Full article (not from some Fox News fuckstick): https://www.ksdk.com/article/news/l...ea-4a87fba31f1c

quote:


ST. LOUIS — 5 On Your Side has learned St. Louis police officers executed a search warrant Friday evening at the home of Mark and Patricia McCloskey, the Central West end couple who confronted protesters with weapons in June.

Sources tell 5 On Your Side police seized one of the weapons, the rifle, from the couple and they told police their attorney has the pistol seen in photos.

5 On Your Side is not aware of any charges against the McCloskeys at this time, and the warrant served Friday evening was just for the guns.

Late Friday evening 5 On Your Side confirmed attorney Al Watkins was no longer representing the McCloskeys, and that attorney Joel Schwartz had taken over. Schwartz confirmed a search warrant was issued at 8 p.m. Friday night, but would not say what was taken from the home. Schwartz also said he does not know where the handgun is.

My guess is that they're going to go after them for past incidents.
