US Politics

Agreed.

Stopped myself from reading too much that insanity last night.

Edit- Found it! Be careful with this rabbit hole, for real. There’s some interesting perspective on the why and the how Q and other cult madness take off, along with lots of rubbish of course. Tidbit I found useful is that, like any virus including viral memes, the selective pressure imposed by the environment results in the “strongest” (or most convincing) variants surviving, and the weaker ones dying off quietly. Curious to think of viral memes as exploiting our minds innate biases.

Worth suggesting moderation if you’re not in a good place or are particularly prone to falling down internet rabbit holes.

Technically not politics, but....

Pretty sure I wouldn't turn up to a bail hearing in flip flops.

At least his tshirt was clean.

I think those were the clothes he was arrested in - he'd just been let out of jail so assume he swapped back into those from the orange jumpsuit.

What happened to the Bust that was removed from the WH by the trump team? Have we confirmed he knicked it?!

Ex-Houston police officer claimed he only breached the Capitol during riots to see ‘historical art’

After denying that he had gone inside the Capitol during the riots, a special agent asked to review the images in his phone.

Although there were no pictures dated Jan. 6, the agent checked Pham’s “deleted” folder and found videos and images of him inside the Rotunda, including one shot of him posing in front of a statue of former president Gerald Ford affixed with a “Trump 2020” flag, federal officials said.

they're all so fucking thick. it's astounding half of these twats managed to not tie their own shoelaces together before setting off.

dude was wearing flip flops

tie their own shoelaces

Don't velcro trainers sell well at Walmart?

He should come over to Salisbury to check out the wonderful cathedral there. I'm told the spire is a must-see

The ones who did never made it to the Capitol. They're laughing now.

All his videos are like that, but as you say they're so smooth it's more a source of amusement rather than anything else (I can't imagine it's not deliberate lampshading), and the legal analysis is generally interesting/entertaining.

Fucking hell. I was right, it’s more a cult. It’s all too easy to say Americans are mental, but Jesus....

Iran's supreme leader tweets attack threat to golfing Trump

like they have access to The Northrop B-2 Spirit...

In all fairness they have to ban him from Twitter for that no? An out and out call for violent retaliation...

Owner has been arrested for being at the Capitol riot

Very hard to view it any other way!

The right wing obsession with the Punisher skull just proves they're all tacticool larpers. The Punisher is anti-police but they love the police, he's anti-hate groups and anti-corruption but they're a hate group and are led by the most corrupt politicians, and he's openly sufferent from PTSD from being a soldier and is basically a mass murderer. But forget all that, the skull looks cool so let's put it on my walmart kevlar vest next to the thin blue line patch and shout at some teenagers wearing black.

Owner has been arrested for being at the Capitol riot
