Clearly there is a 'cookie' that tracked what I was searching, supplied this info to CNN so they could show this ad to me. Scary. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I've been saying this. Deutsche Bank is one of the few banks willing to lend Trump money because he doesn't pay it back (why US banks won't lend to him) and Deutsche Bank launders Russian money. It all ties in. Remember, follow the money. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Princess of Tap Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 1 hour ago, jakeem said: Daniel DaleVerified account @ddale8 I spoke to a Trump supporter who was genuinely shocked that some people think he is dishonest. Why? This is her media diet: https://www.thestar.com/news/world/analysis/2017/12/22/donald-trump-has-spent-a-year-lying-shamelessly-it-hasnt-worked.html … This trump supporter never paid much attention to politics before, so she probably doesn't know what propaganda is. But in all fairness to those propaganda outlets cited, as well as Fox News-- Some people who have certain psychological and societal leanings want to have their bigotry reinforced, rather than hearing the news objectively or weighing facts objectively. When trump said he could go out and shoot somebody in New York City on 5th Avenue and not lose any supporters or voters, he knew what kind of people his supporters were and just how brainwashed they are. Today trump has disavowed his support of Roy Moore, but trump supporters and Roy Moore supporters are cut from the same cloth and are probably, in the state of Alabama, the same people. After all in the legal hierarchy, murdering someone is a step up in criminality from sexually molesting children. Link to post Share on other sites

mr6666 Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 How Trump Got 'Wolffed' - "President Donald Trump could have saved himself a lot of grief if he—or one of his people—had read Michael Wolff’s 2008 book, The Man Who Owns the News: Inside the Secret World of Rupert Murdoch, before permitting the writer seemingly unfettered access to the White House and his underling Steve Bannon. I’m not the only one to arrive at that observation. On Twitter today, Roger Ailes biographer Gabriel Sherman wrote, “One of the baffling things about Trumpworld giving access to Wolff: all they needed to do was call Murdoch and he would have said don’t cooperate b/c Wolff had written nasty book on him. And Jared/Trump speak to Murdoch all the time!” Six minutes later, Wolff tweeted back at Sherman, “I kept waiting for that call to be made.” Why wasn’t the call made as Wolff began collecting string for Fire and Fury, his new book about the Trump White House? The simple answer is that Wolff appears to have mastered a journalistic skill that allows him to suck up one moment and then, when seated at the keyboard, to spit out.... ... the fact that Trump got suckered by Wolff a decade after his frequent telephone companion Murdoch got suckered says even more. Did Trump never ask Murdoch about Wolff? (If that’s the case, Murdoch would have very good reason to have called Trump a “**** idiot,” as Wolff reports.) How can it be that Murdoch never volunteered to Trump in one of their phone calls that Wolff would smile in his face but ultimately stab him? Wolff’s penetration of the White House presents two equally damning conclusions about Trump—that’s he’s too much of an egoist to care who might be loitering around the White House, gathering string on him, and that he’s too incurious about the world to spot a potential danger to his presidency. If ever there were a man who deserved to get Wolffed, it’s Donald Trump." https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2018/01/04/donald-trump-michael-wolff-book-216245 1 Link to post Share on other sites

mr6666 Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 Donald Trump’s Weird Video Briefing Becomes Bonkers New Meme “Leaning hard into the 1984 vibe here.” Press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders began the briefing by playing pre-recorded footage of Trump boasting about his tax code rewrite onto two screens. But as many media outlets have noted, the president was likely nearby in another room at the same time. The bizarre situation did not go unnoticed online, with many people likening Trump’s appearance to a movie villain. They also reimagined photos of the briefing in various amusing ways. Here’s a sampling of the humorous responses: https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/donald-trump-video-briefing-white-house_us_5a4f3294e4b089e14db9ca52?ncid=tweetlnkushpmg00000067 Link to post Share on other sites

Trump on the Senate floor, in a speech that draws a comparison between Trump and Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin: http://cbsn.ws/2rgRcgb I just saw Senator Flake's speech. It's a full-scale indictment of the current president as an enemy of the First Amendment whose repeated unprovoked and irrational attacks on the American Media are blatantly attacking the safeguards of American democracy in the US Constitution. Senator Flake also says the current occupant of the Oval Office trying to destroy objective reality in the public sphere with fake news and lies. This could have been one of the chapters for JFK's book Profiles in Courage. At this point Senator Flake is calling upon members of both political parties to stand up to protect our American Democratic Heritage and our US Constitution. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
