Trump admin seeks medical records of federal workers—for vague reasons
- Thread starter JournalBot
- Start date
It isn't that we cannot name the reason we started Operation Epstein Files Distraction, but that the media largely chooses not to.

Given OPM is led by an avowed Christian Nationalist (Russel Vought), aka a White Supremacist and Nazi wannabe, this is almost certain meant to be used to target dissidents, as well as purge the government of undesirables.

"And in todays news, the Coastal Armies were closing in on Washinton DC where ex-president Trump is still refusing to leave the White House. The Rump US Army has declared itself neutral, having been defeated in a series of lightning battles where the high morale of the Coastal armies proved decisive."

We do. We also have laws about insurrection, corruption, fraud, and sexual assault.

This isn't for Trump, this is DOGE data-brokers disappointed that .gov didn't already have this data for them to steal. It will be available for sale through X imminently.

While accepting we have, indeed, allowed ourselves to be saddled with this shit, the election was determined by a plurality, not a majority.

As they always are and probably always will be unless we have a moment of sanity and adopt ranked choice voting (or equiv). If anything, I’m even more peeved at non-voters than I am at Trump voters. I think Harris was an awful candidate, but you only get to pick from what’s on the menu. Individuals may have had reasonable reasons for being unable to vote, but not 35% overall.

I could give two shits for the fee-fees of anyone who let Biden's deterioration fool them into thinking the mountain of psychotic excrement now actively destroying society would be a fine choice and taking the simplest of actions to stop it.

And thanks to the precedent set by Biden, he'll unconditionally pardon his whole family and any other minions he sees fit for everything on his way out the door so they won't ever be prosecuted even under a new, sane administration.
Assuming we ever get a new administration.

He would and will, and he'll still blame others either way (especially people like Biden), but it still stands as hypocrisy that puts a sour taste in (serious) people's mouth. I don't even blame him in a personal sense - his statement essentially acknowledging the hypocrisy but saying his family had an unjust target painted on them by corrupt right wing leaders makes him as a father act is understandable. But as with so many things, he addressed a problem late and only for himself with no regard for principles as the person who is supposed to be seen upholding them against the depravity of the "other side".

To actually get to DC, the British Army and/or the Canadians would be a better option.
You have to remember why it's the White House.

You (deliberately?) ignore the non-voters, whose apathy and/or self righteousness put him in power.

You deliberately ignore the Heritage Foundation and that ilk's long-standing effort to sow apathy via disinformation, destruction of educational systems, and gathering control over media, and your conclusion is victim blaming.
Yes: too many people have sheep-like behavior. Blaming them and not the wolf isn't productive.

Those who allow themselves to be foxed by a wolf have only themselves to blame.

Ceaușescu would have loved this back when Romanian women were treated like breeding stock, forced to undergo monthly on/gym visits, survived, and effectively forced to get pregnant and have as many children as possible.

22 of the 32 elections since 1900 have been won with a majority of the popular vote.
You should definitely still get rid of the electoral college and adopt ranked choice voting, but it's not the case that elections are always won by a plurality and not a majority.

Not if every potential voter has fair access and equal opportunity to vote. But that pre-condition is hardly the case in the current-day USA (and being steadily and deliberately rendered even less so).

Blame the voters; that's the most effective tactic in politics. It is known.

As a Canadian (who is proud of our military, but also can face reality) we wouldn't have much chance nowadays.

Well, they also have the wolf to blame. Fox? The metaphor's a little jumbled.

By unintentionally making a play on Fox News, he proved my point for me regarding long-term manipulation. If he intended clever wordplay, the better pun in context would have suggested sheep being fleeced by the wolf.

A USAn criticises depth of understanding. Priceless. I might have this one framed.
