Good, fuck her. The fact that she showed no remorse and continued to insist she was just trying to make sure the election was secure justifies the sentence.

Lock Her Up!

Wonder how many of these folks are banking on a Trump pardon?

[Ksyrup]

All of them, I'm sure.

[cartman]

This was a state case, so no Presidential pardon

Wait, rules are suddenly going to apply?

For everyone but Trump. Amazing how many people have gone to prison in servitude of him. Imagine losing basically the rest of your life because something Mike Lindell told you.

I was watching the proceedings. Some of the people who spoke on her behalf probably did more harm than good and at one point her own lawyer had to shush her.

They always lose 5-10 points election day compared to the final polling. I think McMullin was pulling 25-30% in Utah in 2016 and ended at 21%

There's video of her arrest out there and she should have had a resisting charge as well. You tell she's a miserable human being.

And she went straight to jail too-maybe when she's up for parole she will finally realize she was wrong and show remorse.

[Lathum]

Good timeline of todays preceding's. Shes a really vile excuse for a human. Only 33 more days until thousands if noy millions just like her are unleashed.

Vance likely got his ass chewed by Trump because today he's now clearly saying Trump won the 2020 election.

A couple of weeks ago I started seeing a news compilation email in my spam box called The Flyover. It appears to be just a collection of news articles about all sorts of things - general news of the day, politics, economy, sports, etc. I don't know how or why I ended up on the mailing list, but I did a quick Google search and it seems to be considered a fairly unbiased source of information.

In looking more closely at the newsletter, it links to various news sources and doesn't seem to include any kind of editorialization - left-leaning, right-leaning, etc. (CNBC, MSNBC, Fox, Yahoo). However, when I hover over any of the individual news article links, it comes up as "republicantaskforce.com." So I went to that site, and it appears to be nothing more than a way to unsubscribe to ... something (I went there myself, not through a link on the newsletter). I don't see any functionality on that site.

Here's what's weird - it continually shows up in my spam folder despite me saying it's not spam (I don't mind a news aggregator email every morning, frankly). Every morning I click "not spam" and every morning, it's in my spam. I can't think of a single email I've ever de-spammed that has continued to show up in my spam folder immediately. Maybe it'll get caught once in a while after weeks or months, but not continually every day.

So, just curious if anyone knows anything more about The Flyover, and is GMail trying to save me from myself, or what? Am I being spied on by some conservative group through a news article aggregator?

On the bright side, you have carte blanche to eat as much Taco Bell as any human can consume.

Also ironic how they frame it as war against the liberal woke mob, when the right boycotts everything that hurts their feelings. Hypocrites at every turn.

Not to mention, who's the first group to complain about people bringing politics into entertainment? Oh, you mean, it sucks when entertainment and politics are combined only when you disagree with the politics? Got it.

I am from the town Bruce grew up in. My dad was town pharmacist and knew Bruce and his family pretty well. Mom went to high school with him. Bruce mentions the pharmacy in concert sometimes.

Last night he dropped a video endorsing Kamala. You can imagine what that has done to the local facebook group.

[Ksyrup]

How is Bruce Springsteen's political affiliation any surprise, or that he might say something publicly? His leanings are well-known and I'm sure he's made his beliefs and preference of candidate public before.

He has and it shouldn't be. People weren't as surprised as they were more, he should just shut up and sing we don't care what he thinks..

The group has about 10K people. I'm friends with the admin. He was basically playing whack a mole deleting posts all morning because people can't control themselves. It was like a facebook hydra.

[Ksyrup]

It just seems weird that if you like Bruce after this many years, you should know he's not gong to just shut up and play. WTF does he care what he thinks? He has more money and fans than he needs.

MAGA never misses an opportunity to be outraged.

[QuikSand]

heh, i have a long response typed up but the forum hangs when i try to post it here...

[QuikSand]

i'll head over to the conspiracy theory thread

[Lathum]

Apparently at a Trump town hall tonight in NC a Vietnam vet presented Trump with his purple heart. The level at which he has broken people is truly astonishing

[flere-imsaho]

Re: Springsteen

Look, MAGA people continue to get all wound up when they find out what Rage Against the Machine stands for.

[JPhillips]

It's kind of impressive how the GOP has found multiple Nazi-loving black guys to run for office.

Scammers have jumped in on the Trump grift since they advertise that they're gullible and willing to part with their money.

[JPhillips]

I saw a clip from Newsmax with a big ad for Ivermectin.

I'll never understand why MAGA isn't pissed at the right-wing grift machine that is devoted to stealing their money. They aren't taking it from libs like me.

[GrantDawg]

Speaking of grift, the rule requiring the Bible to be in and taught in every classroom in Oklahoma has specifications for the Bible that fits the Trump Bible and only one other version, that is also a "Trump endorsed" Bible.

The marriage of labor with a party that fired union members, brags about firing union members, and has spent the last 50 years weakening labor and lifting support of business and actively rejects the party that has spendt decades rallying organized labor blows my mind.

[JPhillips]

I'm so old I remember when conservatives were pissed at Twitter for supposedly favoring one candidate over the other.

Watching the Phillies-Mets game and just saw a commercial for NewsNation's coverage of Trump's return to Butler PA. They call it coverage of THE PLOT to Kill Trump.

I think the powers that be over there have realized there is a lot of money in right wing conspiracy theories.

We have entered the interview part of the competition. Harris will be on 60 minutes tonight, followed by The View, Howard Stern, Stephen Colbert, and an Univision town hall this week.


Next up: The swimsuit competition.

Had a wonderful experience at my kids soccer games yesterday. Step dad showed up once again with his trump hat and American flag suspenders and would not stop loudly talking to everyone that walked by about the Bidens spending all the FEMA money on illegals. I didn’t want to get into a political argument at a kids soccer game but when you present reality and the response is “You watch the wrong news channels. It’s been reported by multiple news stations. It’s a fact.” IDK I give up.

It really gets to the point where you see these people go down this MAGA hole and you really have to question if it’s safe to leave your kids with people who believe all of this crap.

I was also asked if I “really wanted to keep living like this.” Living like what? They have a brand new home and 150 acres of woods they own and a brand new RV. Atleast 5 ATVs last time I counted. They couldn’t be living any better. I’m not struggling. I’m not really sure what exactly we don’t want to continue living like. Then, inevitably, it always cycles around to illegals.
