but does Judge Dredd have Jim Cummings sounding like Pooh is having a stroke?
Nah, but since we are in the subject I really love the Judge Dredd movie because there is just so much going on it. Critics hated it because it was seen as a brash and unapologetically masculine movie where the main protagonist just dunks on the ladies. But the foil of Cadet Anderson made for an interesting situation where even though Dredd is essentially fighting a feminism run amuck at the hands of a former prostitute, Anderson is still there to mitigate the Masculine's own worst impulses. Which he takes under advisement but still doesn't deter from him doing what has to be done to restore peace and security to the community.


Its a good movie. If you are reading this and haven't watched it, wtf is wrong with you.
 
Its a red herring argument regardless. Fact is they did their part and should be rightfully commended for the effort.
I actually didn't get to see the original page that was removed. If their service (and the page's removal) was being weaponized in the name of DEI then I'm fine with it, but from what I'd seen it was a page about one of the members who went on to play baseball, and not about the code talkers themselves. If that were the case then fine, but I feel like the unit themselves ought to be honored in whole somewhere.

I've watched that movie a dozen times and "defense noted" remains one of the coolest one-liners. What an amazing movie. I can't imagine how terrible it would have been if it had come out later than it did.
 

"I learned with concern that a French researcher" on assignment for the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) "who was traveling to a conference near Houston was denied entry to the United States before being expelled ," said the Minister of Higher Education and Research, Philippe Baptiste, in a statement sent to Agence France-Presse (AFP). "This measure was apparently taken by the American authorities because the researcher's phone contained exchanges with colleagues and friends in which he expressed a personal opinion on the Trump administration's research policy ," he added.

According to a diplomatic source to AFP, the incident occurred on March 9. The space researcher was reportedly subjected to a random check upon arrival, during which his work computer and personal phone were searched. The same source also reported that messages discussing the Trump administration's treatment of scientists were found. He was reportedly accused of messages "that reflect hatred toward Trump and can be described as terrorism ." His professional and personal equipment was reportedly confiscated, and the researcher was sent back to Europe the next day.

Reminder of freedom of opinion
According to another source briefed on the case to AFP, the French researcher was accused by the American authorities of "hateful and conspiratorial messages." He was reportedly informed of an FBI investigation, for which "charges were dropped ," the source continued.
 
Or, to put it more simply, imagine all this political hoopla over New Jersey, but with sand. Because that’s how big Israel is. Barely bigger than the state of New Jersey.
What if we get Iran and Pakistan to invade Israel but we fill Israel with nuke, s so the second that the enter Israel we detonate all the nukes, getting rid of Israel, Iran and the entire middle east in one move.
 
So what I see so far is some incompetence on the SS’s part. But nothing that would definitively lead me to believe there was any kind of conspiracy.

Luigi Mangione knew about Brian Thomson’s hotel schedule and yet no one is claiming any conspiracy there.

Gonna need a bit more than that to sway me. Sorry, just not gonna throw my chips in on what is known so far. Crook was some disturbed individual who wanted to kill Trump, for reasons we’ll probably never know.
people forget that security standards drop over time and pulling security is a perishable skill. the last time a president was shot at was reagan 43 years ago. before reagan was kennedy just 18 years before. we've had white breaches throughout obama and the colombian prostitute shit.

its incompetence pure and simple. lone wolves exist.

Theory: Harry is gay (I believe he is), and he wishes he wasn’t. Moreover, he’s such a flamer that he knows he can’t really convince people otherwise- least of all now, after he put himself out there the way he did during the Biden administration/2024 election.

So maybe this is self-hating gay Harry’s way of trying to create plausible deniability and get people to think he’s straight- having him publicly seen (in writing, no less) as hitting on girls. It has to be intentional, because who the fuck puts their full name as their Snapchat handle? Especially if you have a public-facing, scrutinized position? Only reason that comes to mind there is he’s actually hitting on them and wants them to google his name out of some need to flex his esteemed position as a political influencer, which he’s SO proud of.
Paging @Gehenna Because iirc there ARE people in political positions that exceptional
