But Roger, can we trust that this Jewish soldier does not have dual loyalties?

:lulz:

Funny thing is, his ancestry is Russian and he has displayed a willingness to stick his thumb in Russia's eye.

But of course they're going to say he's disloyal.

Well, that's how history goes, you know. We're well into the "as farce" stage by this point.

But seriously the analogy is too good to pass up on.

Ah yes, the 2nd class citizen democratic swamp peoples don't deserve representation, according to Jr.

QuoteSAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Twitter is banning all political advertising from its service, saying social media companies give advertisers an unfair advantage in proliferating highly targeted, misleading messages.

I think last year there was a crackdown on Instagram about all these people promoting products, in which they had to change their accounts to a business profile or explicitly announce that it was a paid promotion... I think Youtube has a similar policy in which paid promotions need to be announced.

So, policing "political advertisement" whichever way its defined is very much harder to come thru with, since one cannot easily tell who is getting paid or not to promote a viewpoint or stance, so the only manner to truly clean house is to get rid of it altogether... which would make Twitter unique in that policy, which i feel is a step in a good direction (?), but people will just use other platforms for the same purpose, so its inconsequential (?)

I expect the chosen replacement will rue the day. But its a wonderful fuck you. Taking away his favourite toy. He's having the best, most beautiful tantrum right now. The biggest paddy of all time. Experts have examined it and they say it was twice as big as any hissy fit Obama managed. Period.

Quote"According to Mr. Morrison, President Trump told Ambassador Sondland that he was not asking for a quid pro quo," Taylor testified. "But President Trump did insist that President Zelenskiy go to a microphone and say he is opening investigations of Biden and 2016 election interference, and that President Zelenskiy should want to do this himself. Mr. Morrison said that he told Ambassador Bolton and the NSC lawyers of this phone call between President Trump and Ambassador Sondland."

So it wasn't quid pro quo because it was extortion! Checkmate liberals 8)

QuoteWASHINGTON (AP) — A federal watchdog is criticizing the way the Trump administration handles taxes on imported steel and aluminum, saying a lack of transparency creates the appearance of "improper influence."

The Commerce Department's inspector general raised questions about a process that lets steel and aluminum importers request relief from tariffs imposed in March 2018.

Other companies — mostly U.S. steel and aluminum producers that benefit from the tariffs — can object to the exemption requests.

In an Oct. 28 report, the IG said Commerce officials had discussed the requests with "interested parties" and took action based on those conversations. But it said the exchanges were not mentioned in official records, suggesting that the "review process is not transparent and that decisions are not rendered based on evidence contained in the record."
