The FBI took 11 sets of classified files in a search of ex-US President Donald Trump's estate in Florida this week, according to a search warrant.

Who gives a fuck what "philosopher" Sam Harris thinks? Sam Harris is a hack author who only sells books by saying outlandish things. He's a nobody. You're quoting a nobody to prop up your conspiracy? Wow, you're dumb.

LINK: Explanation by non-profit, non-partisan science advocacy group that explains why the study you linked to is actually bullshit.

Nope, the science doesn't back you up.

@raphjd said in Trump sued for "staggering fraud" against lenders/banks:

BTW, do you not realize that when you take out a loan, BOTH SIDES, do a valuation on the property that secures the loan?

So you think laws which prohibit lying to banks and lenders don't come into play if the bank or lender catches you lying to them? It's only a crime if you don't get caught?

@raphjd said in Newly Released Clip Shows Massive Trump Flag Used as ‘Battering Ram’ to Attack Police on Jan. 6:

Do you have any proof that Trump told them to do it?
If not, then what are you trying to say?

These questions are why the January 6th Commission exists. You cannot demand evidence, as a means to defend Trump, and then also be against forming a commission to gather said evidence.

@tnar said in "LatinX" and the 5 year u-turn:

well, this was fun for a while, but now you just sound like the ranting media idiots, so I guess this interesting discussion is done.

Unfortunately, raphjd is not here to debate anyone. Since Tucker Carlson and his A/M radio can't hear him shouting in agreement, he comes here to shout screeds at anyone who dares to participate in this Forum.

Assailant broke into Nancy Pelosi's house and attacked her husband with a hammer. I'm sure this was done by a liberal or antifa, because, as we know, the other side NEVER does things like this.

@raphjd said in Nancy Pelosi's Husband Attacked with Hammer:

It sounds like the accused, David DePape, is actually one of yours, not ours.

Nope, he's one of your crazies.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/10/29/paul-pelosi-attack-david-depape/

"The Washington Post confirmed that a voluminous blog written under DePape’s name and filled with deeply antisemitic writings and baseless claims — as well as pro-Trump and anti-Democratic posts — was registered to an address where DePape lives, according to neighbors."

@raphjd "...as well as pro-Trump and anti-Democratic posts..."

There, I reposted what you seemed to miss in the above post.

@raphjd No, she's a Republican, which means according to the moronic rules you use when you come here and post some bullshit off Twitter from some nobody who just happens to identify Democrat or Liberal....she speaks for all Republicans.

I'm sorry. Those are the rules that you have set up. Either acknowledge them now, or be an even larger hypocrite.

@raphjd said in Ann Coulter Tells Trump To 'Shut The F---k Up, Forever!':

I just post what you ass clown losers say, in your own words, and you don't like it because it shows you for the kind of people you are.

The point is that you are a hypocrite because you recognize that Republicans and conservatives can have differing opinions and are not monolithic, yet you unrelentingly assume that anything any Democrat or liberal says is a shared belief of a monolithic Democrats or Liberals. In other words, you recognize distinctions on your side, but refuse to recognize them on the opposing side. That's why you're a moron.

@raphjd said in ‘Get Rid of This Loser’: Trump Adviser Jason Miller Calls on Republicans to Ditch George Santos Over Fake Life Story:

You are still intentionally ignoring that not a single Dem is calling out any of your liars.

Here's some reading for you:

Wikipedia: "Whataboutism"

Oh, the Whataboutism is strong with the conservative idiots in this post.

Why can't you just admit that Santos is an embarrassment to your party? Doing so doesn't mean other people haven't ALSO lied. But you can't even bring yourself to admit Santos is a comical-level liar.

Which just goes to show, you guys will support anyone so long as the correct letter is after his name (R).

@raphjd said in George Santos claimed he produced Spiderman Musical:

Why are you so fixated on Santos, while ignoring the massive list of lies Biden tells?

Here's why your Whataboutism doesn't work against me: I'm not a fan of Joe Biden. I'm not a fan of Hillary Clinton. I'm even not a fan of AOC.

All of the litany of people you keep throwing in my face....I'm not a fan of. Your argument fails. This discussion isn't about all liars; this post is about George Santos.

And none of you conservatives can bring yourself to admit how awful he is.

@blablarg18 said in Marjorie Taylor Greene suggests that if Democrats move to a red state, they shouldn't be allowed to vote for five years:

You also caught Joy Behar saying, the other day, that the Trump voters of East Palestine, OH deserves their toxic disaster w/ future cancers. Right?

You do understand the difference between the speakers, right? Joy Behar is just a TV talk show host.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is an elected Congresswoman entrusted with representing the values and interests of approx. 800,000 people in Georgia's 14th District. And she's literally advocating for disenfranchisement...not to mention an unconstitutional violations of the right to Interstate Travel, a right our government has recognized even before the Constitution itself (i.e. in the Articles of Confederation).

Can one of those libertarian nuts please PLEASE please give Marjorie Taylor Greene one of their little pocket Constitutions and make her read it?

https://www.clickorlando.com/news/local/2023/03/29/disney-made-last-minute-deal-with-former-reedy-creek-board-giving-company-wide-powers-new-board-says/

While Ron DeSantis was busy doing TV interviews, beating his chest and pretending to be a macho Conservative male, Disney was busy doing actual things. Specifically, Disney negotiated contracts with the then-existing Reedy Creak district board which, for all intents and purposes, ceded to Disney near-absolute control of its property in Florida. These contracts are perpetual, or at least will be in effect for the entire life (plus 21 years) of any existing descendants of King George III of England. Seeing as how one of those descendants was just born in 2021, it will be a long time before these contracts come up for renewal.

The panel installed by DeSantis have no power at all. They cannot do anything. The panel is as limp, flaccid, and ineffectual as DeSantis dick.

@raphjd Which of her posts caused the Trump Org's CFO to commit tax fraud? Was he tricked by one of her Twitter memes into giving out untaxed employment benefits?

@blablarg18 said in When libs lecture right-leaning Christians:

@hubrys You're the guy in the cartoon, aren't you? Not knowing the first thing about Christianity.

LOL! I was born and raised in Pentecostal, evangelical, charismatic protestant church. I've been both Bible camper and Bible camp counselor. When I was a teen, I used to travel to other states to attend Christian conventions. My first college degree involved a focus in the Philosophy of Religion. Unlike some other people who say, "I read the Bible," but only mean they've read some select portions of the Bible, I have in fact read the whole thing. That's everything between "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." and "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.”

My debates (and occasional shouting matches) with the street preachers on my college campus pulled such crowds that there were magazine articles written about it. Heck, even though I was Atheist by college, sometimes, for the hell of it, I would get up on the stage next to the street preacher and preach a sermon better than them just to embarrass them.

But, @blablarg18, you're never wrong so I guess I don't know the first thing about Christianity.

@blablarg18 said in Fox News Settles Defamation Suit for $787.5 Million:

I don't know what stupid Fox may be covering up (by settling - avoids discovery process).

They settled on the eve of the trial. Discovery is and was completed prior to trial. They went thru discovery. Maybe you missed all of the bombshells that came out of the discovery because they didn't penetrate into your conservative news bubble, but the rest of the world now knows a whole lot about how cynically FOX lied to its viewers. That's including your beloved Tucker Carlson, who knowingly lied to his audience and also privately dissed Trump.

@lololulu19 said in Tucker Carlson is terminated from FOX News:

Tucker Carlson was NOT fired from FoxNews. Instead, they mutually agreed to part ways

What is your source for this belief? All sources I've seen report that Carlson didn't even know about the termination until 10 minutes before it happened, and that he's hired the same lawyer/firm as Don Lemon to represent him regarding the firing.
