Heres the entire clip of Tapper's commentary.
Tapper at 6:56 --- "it is possible that the FBI had legitimate concerns to start these investigations AND it is possible that some of the investigators were unprofessional. You could draw both of those conclusions, and both would be accurate."
BOOM.
I don't think tapper's lying at all. Altogether, his comments are fairly accurate--if not clumsy.

- USA detected sound just like an implosion
Titan found -DIRECTLY BELOW- location ie. debris sink straight down (like original Titanic).
Known location (floor below) was FIRST PLACE TO LOOK.
So they detected the implosion but didn't say anything until an ROV was sent down which spotted the debris on the floor, confirming the earlier implosion. Meanwhile other assets continued the above water visual/audio search until the debris was spotted. That seems like a pretty efficient use of time to me.
@blablarg18 I can see the excitement in your eyes just hoping and praying that more and more of these 'thought-they-were-trans-but ended-up-changing-their-minds' type of people, because without them it's just you yelling at some nonbinary child receiving tablets from a pharmacy.
Unfortunately for you the numbers are pretty static at about 1 to 5%. I know you wish there would be a larger number because that would make your argument much more smoother but unfortunately 1-5% is where it's been for the past 20 years. And as social workers get better at filtering out the "changed minds" that number can only go lower

Your blathering about cheerleaders & straight hypocrisy, while accurate on its own terms, is beside the point.
"Accurate on its own terms", which is to say, It's squarely on point.
Where is all the campaigning against sexual displays by the so called "straight society"?
For you to leave them off the hook whilst highlighting gay society and their displays seems pretty lopsided.

why can't we force kids to wait until they are adults like we do with everything else?
Because the nature of trans care, which is prohibiting or lessening the appearances of male/female characteristics, is hugely affected by the changes that come during late adolescence. Being able to stop these changes before they've begun or solidified by adulthood means less medication having to be administered which is better for bodies undergoing these changes.
@raphjd it's fascinating that as a point of comparison you use a trans person undergoing transitive care along with a serial rapist. You could have easily compared a person undergoing transitive care to somebody signing a complex legal document such as a contract (you even briefly mentioned it) but that wasn't the highlight of your comment, which was criminals conducting crimes. That is fascinating in and of itself.
I would agree with you that there is a preferable degree of rational thinking which comes along with having an adult brain as compared to having an adolescent one. Ideally we would allow people to make these decisions when they are adults, but puberty happens when it happens.....if puberty happened at age 30 then everyone would be starting trans care at 28. But unfortunately the body doesn't work that way. And I think 95% of people successfully undergoing trans care is a good reason to allow it to continue, regardless the mental age of the person choosing to receive that care.

If an 8yo is completely competent enough to take puberty blockers and get bits chopped off without parental consent,
This is indicative of how you mix truth with fiction. Saying an 8-year-old can determine whether or not they take medication is not the same as an 8-year-old deciding they can have surgery .....which does not happen by the way. Point to one guideline established by anyone of your hated medical authorities that says surgery can and does happen before the age of 14.
@blablarg18 I'm still waiting to hear what evils they found on the laptop. So far, crickets
While Europe and the United States were trying to isolate Moscow for its invasion of Ukraine, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey referred to Russia’s president as “my friend.” While NATO leaders worked to enlarge the alliance, Erdogan held up the process by seeking concessions for his nation.
Then on Monday, Erdogan suddenly flipped after more than a year of being treated as an in-house spoiler by Western allies. He dropped his objections to Sweden joining the alliance and allowed a NATO summit to convene on Tuesday with a new sense of strength and unity.
Erdogan has yet to comment publicly on his decision, much less explain his change of heart, but he appears to have concluded that he had little more to gain from continuing to block Sweden — and that he could potentially benefit more from mending his sour relationships with the United States and other NATO allies.
@blablarg18 Retranslation from your misinterpretation: There first has to be a formal application in order for there to be a rejection. Since Ukraine has submitted no such application, there was no rejection. Ukraine formerly entering NATO is a bus that has already left the station. Their arrival at that destination is only a matter of time.
@raphjd A single charity's glossary for medical professionals doing cervical screenings is being misinterpreted as a recommendation for all health professionals to change their methods.
When one examines the nature of the document from which the rumor originated, it appears to serve as an educational resource, not a policy mandate or proposal.
Nobody was recommending that the word vagina not be used in all medical settings. Instead, the charity — in concert with a large LGBTQ+ rights group in England — listed the terms "bonus hole" and "front hole" as wording suggestions for medical staff specifically doing screenings of trans women should they feel that would be appropriate. The document did not recommend, or "urge," providers to use the words in all appointments, with all patients.
@raphjd so you admit to posting misinformation that's been previously debunked by Snopes. We're finally making progress here I see
NATO leaders agreed in a joint statement to offer Ukraine an invitation to join, but remained vague on how and when, wording that essentially marked a victory for Biden, who said before the summit that Ukraine was not ready to be a member.
The alliance’s leaders, meeting at a summit in Vilnius, Lithuania, had struggled to agree on language about how to describe a timeline and conditions for what everyone agrees will be Ukraine’s eventual membership in NATO.
The leaders of the 31 member states said in their communiqué that Ukraine would receive an invitation “when allies agree and conditions are met,” and that there would be regular reviews of the country’s progress toward meeting NATO standards on democracy and military integration.
Zelensky was attending a dinner on Tuesday evening with leaders of NATO countries, according to Jens Stoltenberg, NATO’s secretary general, and is to attend the inaugural meeting on Wednesday of the NATO Ukraine Council, a new group that will give Ukraine an equal voice on key issues alongside full member states. Biden is planning to meet with Zelensky on Wednesday.
@lololulu19 The leadership of ukraine is wacko....hmmmmm and I suppose if you were in the leadership of a country that had seen invasion and was constantly being bombarded with threats of annihilation you would be a model of sanity
@raphjd You're absolutely right....they suggested terms for medical professionals to use if they chose to do so in situations performing work at their medical facilities.
Are medical facilities not allowed to use their own terms with their own employees treating their own patients?
Keep pushing your thought processes here .... I can tell, you're on the verge of a breakthrough.
Who should be in charge of how to address patients in their own medical facility? Big bad government? or should the people who work there be able to choose their own terminology?
Answer that one if you can
@blablarg18 I knew you'd love this story, which is why I posted it.
blablarg18's response (when unchallenged by facts) : "It's Democrats to blame!"
blablarg18's response (when challenged by facts): "It's BOTH (Uniparty regime) to blame!"
You just go whichever way the wind blows, don't ya?
Who woulda guessed youre an anarchist at heart.
