US US Politics General - Discussion of President Biden and other politicians

 

[Necrosan]

You don't find it suspicious at all how Tucker took money from a Democrat Iranian and suddenly became a third worldist apologist?

Tucker and Trump's views are very not aligned. Tucker promotes people who attack American foundational history and paint Americans as the bad guys, Trump doesn't.

I edited in into my post after you made the response so I write it here. You can be anti-West and pro-US, they are not mutually exclusive. The globohomo governments and tactics (Brought to you by the small hats community) the Jews have pushed through the US onto the rest of the world have had destructive consequences for everyone. The "West" is just another term for globohomo.

How is Ukraine not a victim of the West? How is the UK not a victim of the West? How is the Middle East not a victim of the West? The endless meddling caused by the neocons is why everyone hates the West, but not only them, they also hate Israel as a consequence because the mask has fallen off and everyone knows that the US is pretty much just the benefactor for the people behind the curtain, that being the Jews. Who in their right mind is not anti-West after all they have done to the world?

No, I don't find it suspicious at all that the Iranian moneybags stopped funding what could easily be called the "We love Israel" lobby and starts funding the party of people who are tired of the neocons and is the most likely to tell them to fuck off. Especially Israel. No, I don't find it suspicious that Tucker became an apologist for them after getting his career nearly killed for being too problematic just like I don't find it surprising or suspicious when you have people simping for Palestine in the US.

It's an important difference to point out; Trump, Tucker & Co are pro-US but anti-West.

According to the NY Post, the FCC adopted an order to approve Soros' purchase of more than 200 radio stations in 40 markets just weeks before the US election in November.

This development has prompted allegations from Republican FCC commissioners and lawmakers of straight up malarkey. According to the Post, this deal was pushed through with a partisan 3-2 vote just before the presidential election, potentially enhancing Soros' reach to over 165 million Americans during a critical time.

The deal, which saw Soros funnel $400 million into the bankrupt Audacy network, has raised concerns because it involves foreign capital that exceeds the typical FCC cap on foreign ownership of U.S. radio stations. This cap is ordinarily set at 25%, but Soros' proposal requests an exception, urging a swift process adjustment. Critics argue that this fast-tracking bypasses the usual national security checks that are standard for such significant transactions, suggesting an unprecedented move by the FCC.

Commissioner Brendan Carr slammed the move, criticizing the FCC for creating what he termed a "special Soros shortcut," to which Elon Musk replied "ounds like corruption."

This fast track right before an election sounds like corruption

Carr was echoed by Nathan Simington, another Republican commissioner, who pointed out the irregularities in the approval process.

"The FCC has a practice of permitting entities temporarily to exceed foreign ownership caps when emerging from bankruptcy—and the majority, over my objection, did so here. But that wasn’t the only way in which this item was ‘fast-tracked,'" he told Fox News.

"Commission leadership tried to approve the item at the staff level, with nothing but a 48-hour notice to Commissioners on a summer Friday. There is almost no factual record on the item because there was almost no attempt to do a real public interest analysis," Simington continued. "Not a single Commissioner outside of the Chairwoman was invited to even think about the issue until staff was directed to handle it on our behalf without our votes. That’s the true ‘fast-track.’"

The transaction is stirring concerns over potential shifts in media influence. Soros' track record of acquiring media outlets and shifting their editorial directions has been a point of contention, especially concerning conservative radio programming. The Soros Fund Management, however, has stated plans to revisit the FCC for a regular review in the future.

Amid these developments, FCC Democrats argue that similar procedural flexibilities have been applied under previous administrations, citing bankruptcy cases like Cumulus Media and iHeart Media, where foreign ownership limits were temporarily exceeded to facilitate restructuring.

Rep. Nick Langworthy (R-NY) called out the FCC over the move - saying "Looking at the facts, it seems the administration is giving a left-wing billionaire, who is a major donor, a close ally, one of the chief funders of all of their efforts and their dark money, a free pass to take control of hundreds of local radio stations, flooding the airwaves with leftist propaganda and I think it’s blatant."

Because it wasn't real. If I'm not mistaken the bombs didn't work because they weren't even armed.

The FBI called it a "viable" bomb. Kamala was apparently as close as 20 ft from what the FBI called a viable bomb.

How is the UK not a victim of the West?

That's like asking how the Vatican is not a victim of Catholicism.

In a way its sort of hilarious, Obama was raised with the whole "everyone's on the same team, judge people by the content of their character not their color" bullshit of his generation whereas Trump was raised on the street smart of "everyone has their own priorities, you and the gangsters and psychos and clergy don't all have the same goals so treat everyone as their own person" and its why Obama and others were hilariously shit at international politics, meanwhile outside of those retards in europe, everyone fucking loved Trump and all but wished their own politicians were more like trump or had the same reasoning skills.

Trump is the greatest diplomatic President since Nixon because he realized that people have their own interests and goals. Nixon, for that matter, is begrudgingly admitted to have been a diplomatic singularity...because he recognized that Mao and Brezhnev were not the same person and therefore did not have the same interests and goals.

I am increasingly of the opinion that the great men of history were not so much geniuses as they were the rare man with a modicum of horse sense who finds himself in a position that is normally only accessible to men whose only skills are flattery and bribery.

I know but the UK is pretty much the testing grounds for the most Orwellian regulations ever created. They have become a preview of what everyone else should expect in their lawns if the same people keep getting elected.

If the US is globohomo's hand and wallet then the UK is the guinea pig they test the chemicals on. Don't get me wrong though, both are sick with the same disease as of now.

Notice how Tucker Carlson has nothing to do with PBD. Despite PBD gargling his cock. PBD literally has a full time jew handler on his show.

PBD has the occasional decent episode, but it's always fucked over by that cringe loudmouth stupid kike. Took me a lot longer than it should have to realise what was going on there. PBD is basically a multi level marketing conman, trying to pivot into something other than what he is. Him offering i think 1/4 of a million to laken riley's parents for some debate on his show, that fell through, and he blocked anyone on twitter that asks him about it.

There is a reason they are known for writing the book on the matter and many others besides.

what a fucking coindicence that most of that comes from the same place.

And even stranger how many of them endorse Kamala now..

This is apparently the 2nd biggest podcast on Spotify behind Joe Rogan? But it's just whores talking about how they're strong and independent or something. At least it's also in video format so we can see the edits to cut out the weird laughing.

Trump should go on Zach Hadels Podcast and just answer questions Zach asks him like "Who would win in a fight, the Terminator or Tito from Rocket Power?"

I mean, the guy who the term is named after is a famous Brittish author, after all.

Obviously, his stories were meant to be a fucking warning, not an instruction manual.

Ms Blondie is pushing back against leftist accusations that anyone who is anti-immigration is a hateful, cruel person

i won’t be satisfied until women’s sensibilities are removed from politics entirely and the men that literally keep society from crumbling can freely criticize subhuman races that threaten civilized society

like the scots-irish

Trump is the greatest diplomatic President since Nixon because he realized that people have their own interests and goals.

I mean, that's the most common sense and (empathetic) approach you can take when you're negotiating world-changing affairs with other men of power. They don't always want the same thing you do.

And that's the thing I think I find most pea-brained about people who feel it necessary to demonstrate their virtue. The assumption that if someone isn't like them, they absolutely should be and if they're not , they're almost entirely irredeemable.

Don't know about her grandmother, but she most certainly is mostly Irish and Indian (and Scottish). Her father hates her and the moment she entered the primary back in 2019, he came out publicly to announce that he (and thus her) was proudly a direct descendant of the main slave owning family of Jamaica and he released a lot of background info on his family genealogy.

Some guy on Reddit bothered to actually go through her entire family history a few weeks ago, and worked out that she's half-Indian by her mother's side, and predominantly Scotch-Irish by her father. At most, she's 12.5% African-Jamaican. She's about twice as Irish as she is black Jamaican.

I'm not sure about her father being Indian as well. If he is, then that 12.5% would be Indian, not African.

Was it Reddit? I thought it was directly posted here. But yeah, was gonna bring up how someone already went very far back into her history on both sides.

Remember when Hollywood was on Sam Elliot's ass because he said new Hollywood movies are terrible, gay, and made by pussies for pussies? I thought Sam was really based then, until he apologized, but apparently an apology wasn't enough. This is 100% a Hollywood humiliation ritual for Sam Elliot.

It's a big fat pile of money for a guy who has no future prospects ritual.

What kinds of signs are you seeing? This is one of the tackiest things I've ever seen:

I have not seen this one it is incredibly gay.

But I have to say this is the one that stays with me the most, there's something subtly ominous about the brutalism.

What about this is supposed to make me want to vote for someone? Obama energy it's not.

This one I have seen...once but then I got a headache. It reminds of of something but I cannot quite bring it to mind.

Unfortunately the Western system so far is the best for the average person. There's no utopia.


He's very clearly not wanting to go back to the 90s since he's attacking American foundational history and trying to paint the West as evil. 90s were never like that.

Unfortunately the western system died with the EU. We want the western system back as it was promised to us. We don't want to be flooded by pajeets, sand niggers and actual niggers (we had way more then enough of those already).

Re: Tucker is a Christian. Let me give my perspective (this and five bucks will get you a cuppa coffee).

Full disclosure, I knew Tucker for a short time back in the early mid-90s, so I make no claims to having a particular window into his soul.

Carlson is an Episcopalian. I used to be. The Episcopal Church, in general, is basically just Atheism Plus, just with fancy vestments and expensive buildings.

This is not to say that there aren't some real, honest, indwelling of the Spirit believers within TEC. But they are few and far between nowadays, the vast majority of them having either being forced out or having voluntarily fled for more conservative, orthodox Anglican parishes.

So to me, "Episcopalian" equates to "non-practicing Christian." I'd like to hear his testimony before I can accept the he's actually a believer instead of just an Episcopalian.

I have been noticing more Kamala signs popping up in my area, its bizarre. At least four are on my daily drive road. I wonder if they are non-locals or if for some reason leftists in the area are feeling more bold. Most are still in front of the rich houses. One is in the poorfag area but the house itself was probably in the 200k-300k range which is expensive. My curiosity is through the roof, might have to do a little research on the Internet...
There was a street demonstration for Kamala a couple towns over, their bravery is commendable because that place is Trump and meth central.

The weirdest one I've seen is a Trump-Vance sign paired with the local flavor of Dem senate candidate in the same yard. Like, hating your senator enough to not vote is pretty common, but enough to endorse the other guy isn't something you see often. Double if it's a Dem and they are voting off color for Donald.

Merkel admitted the Minsc accords were negotiated in bad faith. Moreover, the USA is no longer capable of negotiating in good faith, because since Obama, Democratic Presidents no longer regard Republican Presidents as legitimate. To negotiate in good faith, the other party has to have reasonable assurance that whatever was agreed upon won't be torn up in four years.

First of all, the Minsk agreements were between Russia and European countries - specifically France, Germany, and Switzerland. The US did not sign any of those agreements and the US had nothing to do with the negotiations, other than an endorsement after they were completed. Merkel is the one who fucked Putin, not Obama or Trump. You can read about it here and I suggest that you do. Obama and Trump sanctioned Russia separately. So, in short, you're wrong.

Second of all, the Democrats crying foul every time the Republicans win an election is a separate issue from US foreign policy on Russia and Ukraine.
