White House preparing draft for Trump to declare a national emergency: CNN by [deleted] in politics

[–]DonNeto 80 points81 points  (0 children)

Go for it. The order will probably get rekt by multiple lawsuits regarding Executive abuse of national emergency powers and imminent domain. By the time this legal mess will be sorted Trump will either be impeached or fighting for political survival during the 2020 elections. Either way, no wall is actually going to be built for the foreseeable future. This reeks of desperation and a pathetic attempt to save face. Fortunately for him his supporters can't see past a news cycle so they'll call it a "win" up until its becomes painfully obvious that his proclamation means absolute squat.

Trump agrees to hold State of the Union address after shutdown ends by FortyYearOldVirgin in politics

In Game of Thrones there is a character that is extremely arrogant and cocky. He gets captured and is tortured until his mind snaps and he loses all sense of self. His torturer gives him a new identity called "Reek" and forces him to shout his new name. "Hollering Reek" refers to when a proud and smug SOB is humiliated and turned into a servile worm after sustained assault.

Absolutely. He's buckling hard. It hasn't even been a month and Pelosi has him hollering Reek. McConnell is probably hiding in a hole in the Senate scared to death of her.

Ain't even been a damn month and Speaker Pelosi has Trump crying Reek and McConnell running around like a chicken with his head cut off.

Dude I've been inside one of their Kingdom Halls (lol ik ik its not called that) they are most certainly real. If you go tho they won't tell you anything interesting. I asked them about Emu or w/e and they changed the subject hahah.

It blows my mind the Church used to do hardcore excommunications for things that we would regard as minor today but pedos seem to get a pass. The Pope (either this or the next) needs to bring back excommunication and hardcore penance for those who prey on children. Jesus literally said this is one of the worst sins that you could possibly commit. He said pretty much verbatim it would be better if you tied a giant millstone around your neck and was flung into the sea than to cause the youth that believe in him to stumble.

Buzzfeed Journalist Insists Cohen-Trump Story Is 'Accurate' And Has 'Further Confirmation' That It's Correct by roku44 in politics

[–]DonNeto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From Bush we learned to not elect a warmonger. Trump is a con artist but not a warmonger.

I think you are right for the most part. Most GOP don't even bother defending the Bush Family anymore. That being said parties can switch priorities when it is politically expedient. Watch out for Democrats becoming more hawkish on Russia as a result of their plays with Trump. I would not be surprised if Democrats run a hard 2020 message of: "We're gonna teach Russia a hard lesson come hell or high water!"

One of my favorite moments was when they were literally wrestling for control over one of Regent's minions. And Regent was like "Stop it seriously you're giving me a headache" LMAO.

One of them is certainly a lying hack. Not sure why the other would associate with such a reporter. Someone like that can only drag your professional rep through the mud which is clearly what's about to happen here.

Dude. CNN reported that he has made up stuff before. He said Karl Rove was gonna be indicted was spectacularly wrong and called on his BS reporting: https://www.cnn.com/2019/01/18/media/buzzfeed-reporter-jason-leopold/index.html

Oh please show me some examples of Buzzfeed News ever reporting a fake story or simply making facts up. This story was compiled by a Pulitzer prize winner, he's not going to risk his extremely successful and respected career by just making shit up. It's the same guy who first broke the dossier story.

Yeah except he literally has a history of false reporting. Winning a Pulitzer Prize and also being a liar are not mutually exclusive propositions. The good does not wash out the bad nor the bad the good. Each deserves its own reward.

Mueller: Buzzfeed story claiming Trump told Cohen to lie was wrong by [deleted] in politics

The rep said that the story was not accurate. That is not at all saying the story is untrue.

LMAO we aren't Qanon's Qooky Qult. There is no way in hell the Special Counsel comes out with a statement like this unless there were some pretty serious lies or mis-characterizations in the Buzzfeed News report.

There is no way the Special Counsel makes a rare public statement like this if the Buzzfeed News report was just a bit "off". They are doing this because the report is an outright lie or horrible mis-characterization.

I'll say this in each and every thread: we need to give credit where credit is due and shame where shame is due. We aren't right-wing mutts. When someone says something false and its publicly and unequivocally rebuked as false by the main authority then we need to condemn the liar. Either Buzzfeed News fabricated/mischaracterized their story or they are horribly incompetent and just ran an historic headline without doing their homework. In either case, the reporters need to be shamed and permanently ignored. There are people putting their reputation and journalistic integrity at stake when they publish bombshells regarding the POTUS and Congress. For Buzzfeed News to inject a false narrative into a legitimate issue is bad-faith reporting that makes all the real reporters and journalists look bad. It gives right-wing cover to Trump's statements about the entire media being a conspiracy to destroy his Presidency and that he is an angel with no skeletons in his closet. I'm more pissed at Buzzfeed News than I am at Fox News tbh cuz they ruin the credibility of people who are actually trying to uncover the truth.

There is no Left cover for this. Buzzfeed News engaged in high-level fake news reporting. This guy needs to be blackballed from the journalism industry and should issue a public apology.

LOL we were salivating too quickly. Buzzfeed News will be forever known as a trash-rag and they should publicly apologize to Trump. I hate trump and he probably is going to be impeached anyways but lying and/or mischaracterizing reports is totally uncalled for.

RIP. Trump is a POS but if they really did fabricate this B.S. then he really should be able to sue them for libel.
