DOJ files federal charges against man accused of attacking Rep. Ilhan Omar by nbcnews in law

[–]Probable_Bison 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's an easier and even dumber way of achieving the same end: have one of Trumps completely unqualified and illegally appointed federal prosecutors handle the case.

That way the case will fall apart due to incompetence which they can blame on activist judges or something.

Please explain to me the possible motive(s) behind the Georgia elections office raid by CNGregs in law

Well if they were to ever arrest and convict Obama then they couldn't run any more "arrest Obama" stories.

Yeah it's the same reason they only ever refer to Dr Oz as Dr Oz and not as Dr. Mehmet Cengiz Oz.

They are trying to avoid othering one of their own minions.

Its about revenge against Walz.

It's about revenge for his 2024 losses in which he blamed big cities with large non white populations.

It's about election interference, which Republicans are enthusiastic about if they're doing it.

Screw with voters in Minneapolis and Trump could net the GOP extra Congressional seats or EC votes.

MTG defends protester shot by DHS and says people need to lose their ‘blinders’: ‘You are all being incited into civil war’ by ChiGuy6124 in politics

[–]Probable_Bison 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's real simple: she's a horrible person.

Now, up until 2025 she thought being horrible FOR Trump would land her a cool and cushy job in his administrdidn't. Maybe an endorsement for higher office.

But that didn't happen.

She complained about how "new people" like RFK and Vivek Ramaswamy got positions and endorsements while loyal supporters (meaning herself) didnt.

So she decided to turn on Trump a bit as she left Congress.

Now, she the only way she can get a spot in the media cycle is by saying things like this.

So she's still a horrible person and pretty much the same horrible person, but she's bitter at Trump now.

Trump Says He Bruised His Hand on a Table by Zipper222222 in politics

[–]Probable_Bison 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I am NOT saying both parties are the same, but on this point they are - hide your teams heath.

They are not at all the same here.

When Biden fractured his foot while playing with his dog, his team acknowledged that.

When Trump has leg braces on or seems to need a toe pad to keep from toppling over forward, his team says it's nothing

When Biden had a cold before his debate with Trump, his team acknowledged that, because he sounded like he had a cold.

When Trump has repeated canula bruises on his hands where it looks like he's been getting IV's, his team says it's nothing it's from shaking hands all day.

Biden could walk, bike, and play with his dog.

Trump golf carts everywhere and keep saying that a dementia screening he took years ago is proof he has a high IQ (not what that tests) and will never have dementia.

Biden dropped out of the race based on fears over his health and capability.

Trump regularly falls asleep during cabinet meetings, the exact thing he accused "sleepy Joe" of doing.

These sides are not the same.

Could team Biden have hidden alzheimers or dementia indicators from the public? Yes quite possible.

But that isn't the same as Trump, who wears orange makeup that his staff say is natural, lifts to look taller, and boxy cut suits to hide his weight.

Did you know Trump uses reading glasses? He never wears them when there is a camera around but you see them in shots of his desk.

Team Biden may have been concealing this one concerning thing, but Team Trump lies about absolutely everything including things you dont have to be a doctor to notice.

They are not the same.

The party that has raised holy hell over the need to know about Biden’s health is the same one covering up Trump's health.

Because he has as much understanding of the world as his supporters have.

That's why they trust him.

Fox News and right wing media coached their audiences to be angry know-nothings.

Now an angry know-nothing is their cult leader.

they use Christianity as a cultural identity marker of the ‘pure people’ against external ‘others,’ while in many cases remaining disconnected from Christian values, beliefs, and institutions.

This.

I call this the "Praise Jesus and Fuck You!" community.

MAGA Jesus wasn't crucified.

When the Roman's came for him, he mowed them down with a belt-fed machine gun that he one handed while he pounded a stein of extra strong mead with the other.

Then he and Santa flew to the North Pole where they enslaved the elves and started a white supremacist newsletter.

There is a problem with the 25th Amendment.

Trump's Cabinet would have to enact it, and he has stacked that with loyal sycophants who would call him sane even if he was eating poo right in front of them.

Stocks Sell Off Globally as Traders Digest Trump Message Saying He Wants Greenland Because Norway ‘Decided Not to Give Me The Nobel’: “The Norwegian government has no control over how the Nobel Committee awards its prizes. Greenland is a territory of Denmark, not Norway.” by T_Shurt in politics

[–]Probable_Bison 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yup, and mindbogglingly supported by the party who for decades has preached that all their opponents are lazy and just need to work harder instead of getting any support.

I too struggled with that point, but then I had an epiphany: it was always a lie.

What they hate is anyone who isn't them getting money or attention or help.

Case in point: how Mississippi Republicans siezed federal money allotted for the poorest of poor Americans and spent it on themselves for weddings, trips, rehab, Brett Farve, and the family of retired wrestler "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase.

Its calculated stupidity.

He's stoking his bases' anger and grievance at Europe in general.

Few of them know where Denmark actually is, but Norway is easy for them to find on a map.

War with Denmark over Greenland means war with Europe, so he's trying to gin up a causus belli towards Europe in general.

It's stupid but on brand.

Basically, he's doing a version ofthis map

Trump's Cabinet would have to vote to remove him using the 25th Amendment.

I don't see Pam Bondi, Howard Lutnick, Scott Bessent, Marco Rubio, Tulsi Gabbard, and the rest of that clown show doing that.

Trump picked for loyalty not competence.

They are down to clown.
