I'm sorry, she used a teleprompter for Oprah?

I posted a clip of it a while back

Has anyone posted this? I didn't see it on search, last mention of a teleprompter that I saw was from August

Apparently Kamala had a teleprompter during the town hall with Oprah

It says what they are: people who moved within the state and registered at their new address. That's very common.

I am surprised by those purged for being inactive in two federal elections, usually it's missing like 7 to 11 consecutive elections. If you didn't vote in 2020 and the 2022 mid-terms you got removed? That's over-doing it a bit IMO.

If it wasn't basically effortless to re-register I'd agree, but if they offer same-day online registration you could potentially do it from your phone while waiting in line

Most states cut off voter registration a month before the election.

I checked, NC doesn't. They compensated for their aggressive purging by having the voting sites offer registration services so you can register and cast your votes at the same time. All my state takes is ID and signing and dating above a line that says 'I want to vote' and presumably theirs isn't much more complicated so it's not like registering is some massive burden if you don't have to go to the DMV and wait for hours to do it

1. He's a gun grabber

2. He's pretty wishy-washy and flip-floppy on immigration

3. He's totally on board with the current left narrative about abortion, which is crazy.

4. He's totally on board with a lot of the left's economic policies.

yeah all that is terrible. Immigration is my number one concern, then guns, then economy. Use him for what good he offers but don't let him do too much.

Is that one real?
Good grief, Zelenskyy looks like a child who has been told been told Christmas is cancelled.

I don't think the Germans had the naval and logistic resources needed to mount such an operation and win.

Part of the reason was Hitler deluding himself that the English will come to their senses and join him. You're right, but leaving a whole island alone to serve as enemy's supply depot and starting point for Normandy was the beginning of the end for the Germans.

 

[SaidNoOneEver]

Generally you should be getting a voter information card that tells you where you vote and so on, and not getting that card should clue you in. If you're just going to the same place every time and completely ignoring the card then a) you won't know if the location you have to vote has changed and b) you're clearly not paying attention to the latest information about the election, usually because you are a habitual voter who doesn't even know what your candidate has promised or if they are sabotaging your county

You get the card once after you register, not every election. I work elections in my state and every single time have to turn people away who thought they were registered but weren't for whatever reason. I think my state automatically purges if you miss 8 consecutive elections (federal + local). I can't even imagine how many would be turned away if people were purged for not voting in the last meaningless federal mid-term. They'd be overwhelmingly Republicans too.

 

[The Last Stand]

Trump is dogshit this time around. Surrounding himself with massive retards who kiss his ass, none of the fire from 2016, biblical amounts of Jewish cum guzzling.
I am almost certain he's gonna lose.

You sound like an op. For real.

Oh man...zelensky looked like he didnt get the golden parachute

Why is Z-dog dressed so sloppily? Sad!

 

[Betonhaus]

when the nazis invaded czechoslovakia the allied powers didn't just give him what they wanted, the soviets flat out offered to help kick the germans out but poland and romania refused, and then promptly got taken over by germany

the entirety of world war 2 was the allied powers siding with the nazis in the hopes that they would be a buffer to the european powers against the threat of the red army and every single retard plan the allied powers came up with to screw over russia had the direct consequence of helping the nazis, and this failed so badly the united states had to give the soviets war materiel through lend-lease. the only reason the blitzkrieg of poland was capable of happening was because the allied powers made literally zero attempts to stop the german war machine from spooling up in the hopes that they would just beeline straight for moscow. instead they signed a peace treaty with the russians and took over france.

I have a question, what started the bad blood between Russia and the allies in the first place?

 

[Betonhaus]

Why is Z-dog dressed so sloppily? Sad!

He always dresses like shit. It's his trademark, like Boris Johnson's horrible horrible hair. It seems to play well with a subset of horrible people.

 

[Hey Johnny Bravo]

The Russians turned into retarded communists.

 

[Betonhaus]

The Russians turned into retarded communists.

Were they hostile to other nations first? Or were they just a threat to the establishment of the time?

 

[The Ugly One]

Holy shit, I get it. You need to be frightened and a victim, but give it the fuck up.

Hold on hold on...maybe lesbians *do* need be frightened and *do* need to be victims. Maybe we should take that need seriously.

 

[Amelia Troonheart]

He always dresses like shit. It's his trademark, like Boris Johnson's horrible horrible hair. It seems to play well with a subset of horrible people.

He should try dressing like he gives a shit about leading his country. I hope he gets fucked in negotiations for that reason alone. Take your role seriously and show you understand you're representing your country with how you present yourself. Embarrassing.

 

[Quiet Guy]

So has Kamala ever explained how she managed to listen to 2pac in college while pac was still in ballet school at the time?

Remember that John Titor thing a few years back on 4chan? Kamala must be a mutated Pence.

 

[Hey Johnny Bravo]

Were they hostile to other nations first? Or were they just a threat to the establishment of the time?

Considering that their entire country was based on open hostility towards everyone that was not a communist, I would say it was a mixture of both.

"Hello darkness my old friend"

So is Null going to think Trump broke Z-Man’s bussy now?

 

[The Ugly One]

AGAIN. You should be on top of that.

Registering to vote takes no time or effort at all, and you have all the time in the world to do it before the final stretch of an election season.

And, as a party, you should be on top of voter registration drives. It is not the DNC's fault that the RNC historically has been run by lazy con artists. All that Romney bitch did was loot the till.

lmao Zelensky's face.

That's the face of a man who just realized that the party is about to be over.

Moral of the story. Don't do drugs. Not as many as Hitler.

You fucking nailed it.
You don't see many people talking about it, but when you learn how much meth his doctor was prescribing to him, every day, combined with all the knowledge we have today about its continuous, long term effects, it becomes very easy to contextualize his personality change, from this smart, charming, caring man, to the retarded lunatic he eventually became.

If you've ever been around people having bad vibes from speed, and you read what Hitler was like in his late days, it's clear as day what was going on with him.

Spoiler: anecdotal

You know when you've done coke/meth all night long, and then morning comes, and you're out of drugs, and the bad vibes are settling in, and everything is annoying and uncomfortable, and and there's nothing you can do, not even sleep? That's pretty close to what long term meth users feel, most of the time. Or so I heard.

 

[draggs]

Related to the above, protocols for actually controlling these drugs were not robust enough. Theft was easy because the expectation was that doctors would never lie about this stuff (whoopsie!).

This is the big thing here. Pill mills never would have been possible except the protocols were deliberately made weak so billions of dollars could be made quickly giving out millions of unnecessary opiate prescriptions. A large proportion of which were written by skeevy doctors out to make a very quick very big buck

And plenty of doctors who weren't skeevy just went along with the crowd and started prescribing more opiates, started making a lot more money, kept prescribing more opiates. Not with any deliberately bad intent, but with unintentional negligence caused by natural reaction to incentives, yes
