[quote=Giantone;1333906]chico , thing is you make up the BS about Biden the shit about this Congressmen is true. The two are very different you dumb ass.[/quote]

Actually the stuff about Warren and Biden is in fact true as well (Come on now no one, not even their fervent supporters, really disputes that - except you). The Congressman elect is scum and if there is a way to prevent him taking his seat I'm all for it.

Inflation may be easing, but grocery prices are still way up

In the year through November, food got 10.6% more expensive, with grocery prices rising 12% and menu prices jumping 8.5%, not adjusted for seasonal swings, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said Tuesday.

Tulsi Gabbard murder interview w Santos .. she is a sharp knife[/quote]

He’s maybe the wealthiest senator in congress and he repeatedly lied about serving in Vietnam war. And he’s misrepresented his serviced as He obtained at least five military deferments from 1965 to 1970 and took repeated steps that enabled him to avoid going to war, according to records. Then he “happened” to land as a marine reservist that guaranteed he didn’t go.

I saw bits and pieces of Tulsi interview…that’s how you do it.

Yeah that one as correct too. Blumenthal who was in the Marine reserves passed himself off as Vietnam war vet. Pretty sure he explicitly claimed he served in Vietnam on multiple tours but never actually went there.

Just as vile was McCain backing the Steele Dossier as viable to the intel community with his blessing for investigation. He was a bitter old man at that point, acting as a politician and not the same person he was before.

McCain was a useful idiot to essentially a political operation which was completely discredited by multiple investigations end the end.

Who knows, maybe if you keep repeating it someone will eventually believe you!

Did you even read that article you posted? It said Steele and his helper went to McCain to help get the FBI to research the dossier just to verify if the claims were even true - and his helper fucked up and allowed some reporter to take photos of the memos in the dossier which then ended up being published.

Literally nobody involved in that said the claims were true - it said the DNC paid Steele or whoever to do oppo research on Trump (which is standard for any politician in any big election) and that's what he came back with. If true the blame lies with some overzealous reporter for publishing an unverified dossier that everybody involved knew was unverified. McCain simply wanted to pass it onto the FBI so they could try to verify the claims.

Obviously the stakes were high, if the claims were true then Trump is compromised by potentially adversary foreign country/countries. If the claims weren't true then Steele's credibility would've been shot. But it 100% shouldn't have been published if the claims were unverified. Moot point now - I still think Trump is compromised because he's never said an ill word about Putin.

Mooby…my god. Use your brain here: “Steele was contracted by Fusion GPS to conduct opposition research on Trump for the Democratic National Committee and the law firm representing the campaign of Trump's then-Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.”

Now here: “After a lunch a nearby pub, Steele told Kramer “that he thought having Senator McCain weigh in would be hopeful in terms of giving the FBI additional prod to take this seriously,” Kramer said.

Kramer added later that "... I think he (Steele) felt that ... [B]having Sen. McCain provide it to the FBI would give it a little more oomph than it had had up until that point."[/B]

Mooby, the dossier was circulating major news orgs and was rebuffed as it was obviously false and not worth the time. They ONLY went to McCain because they knew he hated Trump and in the article above in bold…he useful idiot because it gained zero traction anywhere else. Why? Because it couldn’t be verified as it was False from media outlet research.

Buzzfeed published it as they are fake news outlet, which hey we knew that 10 years ago.

Deposition in the article is a bad look for McCain.

Your point in bold doesn't clarify shit about why McCain gave it to the FBI. Why would he give it to the FBI to hurt Trump? If he wanted to hurt Trump he could've leaked the entire dossier through himself or his staff. Giving it to the FBI to verify what's true or not makes sense - obviously if you're dealing with something incredibly compromising you'd want to have it verified by as many credible sources as possible before it spreads to the public.

No he doesn't and that's the point he is nothing but a parrot for trump and the republican ignorance that all his followers show. He will bash McCain but not Putin.

I wish more politicians actually voted their conscience, instead of going along to get along.

I haven't been following this closely, as I have no allegiance to McCarthy. So I don't know if people not voting for him are doing it for the right reasons or not. But if they genuinely do not believe that McCarthy should be speaker, then good on them.

If I was a politician, the front page of my website would explain why I voted yes/no on anything that got called for a vote. And it would be me that typed it out myself. That would be the focus of my website so voters can get a clear explanation on my personal vote.
