@AdamS Although I am not sure we can be blamed for Chechnya... and I think our motives were mostly good in Bosnia and Syria. I personally was reluctant about us going war in Afghanistan in retaliation for 9/11 and I did not support the Iraq war, because I saw no link to 9/11 and didn't believe the had WMD's - 50 years from now, historians will lament how a cowardly, criminal act perpetrated by dozens of individuals (by borrowing the plot of a Tom Clancy novel) for a couple hundred thousands dollars and 19 lives, resulted in the world's largest super power to spend trillions of dollars, tens of thousands of American lives, countless Afghan and Iraqi lives - all precipitated by that single heinous act. Not to mention that everything we did ultimately did way more to radicalize people against us and I doubt we are any safer in the end. I am hopeful we are learning from our mistakes...
America was never involved in Chechnya. That was Russia. Did you do your research? America has not been bankrupted by the war on terror. Your country has barely been involved in the wars. Like I said, many of us are happy to let you finance and fight your own wars and establish your own freedom of navigation.
Sadly I agree. But there's more to it.
I condensed 20+ years into a paragraph, so I wasn't really going for comprehensive. π
Bankrupted? No. Helped destroy the American middle class? Yes.
Man this chat sure has filled up with activists...
I am way too reactionary to be an activist... Can an armchair QB be an activist?
Not even close. The entire war on terror cost about 2.4 trillion. That is still less than the yearly cost of social security and all of the other entitlements programs.
Im not an activist. Im not even a slacktivist. I just wonder about such things as why Assad heads a regime, but Al-saud a government.
Then again, I also wonder what happens when an Egyptologist runs out of papyrus.
I was just watching the Viva & Barnes stream that was posted by @james j ... I like the way they laid things out especially the way Barnes eviscerated Powell/Ramsland. I understand why he is focusing on signatures, but here is the problem. Signature verification is fairly subjective and open to interpretation. They might have to contact voters to see if they sent in ballots. They do have a curing process for ballots that would otherwise be rejected and it doesn't seem that they had to wait for election day to process the reception. https://georgia.gov/vote-absentee-ballot Because GA seems to have put a lot of effort into dealing with mail-in ballots, it would be really stupid to have not followed the process.
Anyone know if this is true?
I found it hard to believe US would use a Canadian aircraft so I researched further
After there, that tail number landed in Washington DC
Registered to DOJ
Just found it
Left Washington on the 12th to Kansas.
Spent 1 hour or so in Kansas.
Then went to sand Diego.
Spent the night in San Diego then went to Kansas again. About 1 hour in Kansas then back to Washington.
From Washington to Toronto where it stayed for 3 nights
I'm confused. Are you saying there are ballots on this plane? What does this have to do with the election? You lost me here.
@meglide, you just advanced to level 4!
I saw a video earlier about a surge in military aircraft flights. Does this have to do with that?
It was reported that the army seized Dominion servers in Germany and some Dominion servers or info from Canada
Trying to find the German flight now. A different plane was used. Probably a c-130
Guessing!
If anybody's interested in why the constitution wasn't the monumental human achievement for freedom... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrC5lRY4Kr8
oh ... I stopped thinking about the Dominion thing once I saw the hand count in GA come out exactly the same as the machine count
Good for you! I canβt stop thinking of it
just do a little research about what they did in GA in terms of ensuring every ballot had a paper trail associated with it
There's a reason they were 100 on the hand recount
I did, thanks
yeah if that GA hand recount had come up significantly different that certainly would have been the "smoking gun"
If it was going to be a smoking gun, they would have stopped it π
I have been thinking about the Viva and Barnes podcast and there is something that really bothers me. At everyone point since Nov 3, Republicans have been jumping at every shadow absolutely convinced that this election is rigged. And the only reason why for that is the fact that Trump told them for the past 9 months that it was going to be rigged. That's the only reason. If he had not, this would have played out as normal and we would have collectively been looking to the future. And it may have been to his detriment. In that had he been focused on just his policies and not about what might be taken from him, he might have eked out another EC win. Instead he turned a lot of people off with his pre-whining. So, we are now recounting the votes, which rarely change the election, but it certainly proved that there was not any software only vote switching. There are some persistent rumor about observers being forced to leave while counting continued, but those have not stood up in court and election officials in all battleground from both parties have attested to counting having never stopped, so that theory has been debunked. There have been some dead people that may have voted, but we are talking only dozens maybe across all bg states. We are still waiting to see what Matt Braynard was able to find (with his $650K raised), but at last check, it seems like a longshot. Trump's suit about a violation of the Equal Protection clause in PA has been appealed. This one also seems like a longshot. The Secretary of State sent out a message to all counties/precincts letting them know that they could notify voters to cure any rejected ballots the night before the election. All were told to do it, some Republican counties chose not to. In most of those counties that didn't, it probably hurt Biden because he did better with mail-in.
