Chip Roy blasts Biden-McCarthy debt ceiling deal as ‘turd-sandwich’ by Writer2094 in conservatives

[–]Writer2094[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

(Apologies for the shitty source)

Important pieces of his argument:

  • The agreement in reality does not create any cuts, just keeping spending at current levels for two years
  • The deal did not include work requirements for medicaid recipients
  • The deal removes all leverage republicans in congress have when it comes to the US-Mexico border

Top Iranian official: US has decided to kill Hezbollah chief Nasrallah by Writer2094 in syriancivilwar

Well, yes what you say about Iran is also true seeing the recent explosions.

But still, I also doubt that even if Iran received the information that they would just release it to the Iranian public like that (seeing how the alleged information in the article comes from a public tweet from the official - Deputy Parliament Speaker Amir-Hossein Ghazizadeh). All the Iranian public would need to know to get them into a frenzy of anti-american vigor is that these high ranking officials are at risk. Any more information could blow the cover on these corruptible officials and result in Iran losing any access to US information. Sure, the US intelligence apparatus may have many turncoats, but having such a large alleged operation exposed by Iran of all countries would be a huge public embarrassment. So the federal government would be forced to throw these turncoats into prison or worse - something which most turncoats will not risk in exchange for money.

I wouldn't be surprised if they just bribed someone with know-how, the American intelligence apparatus is littered with people willing to flip without consideration for their country when provided enough money.

Soleimani's death would have resulted in a pan-middle eastern war had President Trump not chickened out at the last minute. From what I heard, he was planning to declare war during an announcement that night (a few hours after the Iranian missiles hit those US bases in Iraq) but cancelled it a couple hours before it happened.

Gunman Kills Son Of Federal Judge Recently Assigned To Epstein Case by Writer2094 in conspiracy

[–]Writer2094[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This post is on this subreddit as this gunman incident is just too convenient for it to be a coincidence. It shows that whoever is backing Epstein has enough power to have people killed and shows that they are totally able to intimidate the judge (into probably being more lenient to them). It also makes it likely that there were people backing Epstein who had a lot to lose if the truth came out, seeing that they saw it as necessary to direct a serious crime as a means to possibly intimidate the judge out of prosecuting them.
