Something you’ve probably picked up on over the last 6 months is that the Demonrats are not going to stop pretending to see the Emperor's New Mental Clarity. As Biden's workdays are stretched from <20 minutes, 4 days a week, to an unbearable 2 hrs on some days - to meet the expectation of occasional campaign appearances in addition to his daily duties as president de jure - his daily gaffes, wanderings, mumblings, teleprompter fails, and truncated sentences are going to become more frequent and pronounced. In order to combat the growing number of POTUS fail videos which will be coming from social media and conservative news outlets, the WH and their MSM minions have rallied together to start falsely labelling Biden's actual fails as "cheap fake" videos, to minimize the damage while at the same time slandering opposition. What's happening is that actual videos of Joe doddering and floundering are making the rounds on social media, and MSM outlets who are members of TNI are describing the videos as fake without showing the actual footage themselves. In one recent instance, CBC showed an actual video and mis-labelled it as "digitally edited video", and then had to remove it from their site after they were busted, then they replaced it with their own video with a narrowed view of what happened, but that's not the video that was making the rounds. The original video they showed was the one that was making the rounds and it was 100% legitimate. One thing that the MSM's/TNI's "cheap fake" accusations have in common is that they never show the actual raw footage, so viewers are left to rely on the opinions of TNI's disinformation experts, like CNN and NBC, to form the opinion that the videos actually were "cheap fakes". https://www.foxnews.com/media/liberal-media-outlets-running-cover-biden-calling-viral-clips-cheap-fakes CBS News was forced to remove its original report after labeling raw footage from the G-7 incident as "digitally altered video," replacing it with a narrowly cropped version that had also circulated online and labeling it "edited video." In other words, CBS was caught lying about the authenticity of an actual video that was going around, then they replaced the actual video with one video that was somewhat altered, but the actual video still showed Joe being Joe. If you see a MSM "cheap fake" accusation: see if they show you the real, unedited footage of the incident in question see if they mention where the 'cheap fake' was, and who posted it. Remember: if it really was a cheap fake, they'd have that info, but they don't, and they won't show the unedited footage.

Meanwhile back in reality….Republican Cheap fakes do exist The video are not altered but they are shortened down and taken out of context For example the one cellphone clip where Biden is waving and giving thumbs up to a soldier who is out of view of that one particular cameraphone is presented as him waving at nobody Typical republican dirty trick garbage that they’re always pulling Republicans and right-wing media outlets are increasingly spreading deceptively edited Biden videos Fact-checkers have said that videos circulated by GOP operatives have been doctored and taken out of context By NICHOLAS LIU PUBLISHED JUNE 20, 2024 4:04PM (EDT) The Republican National Committee, conservative media outlets and right-wing influencers are peddling deceptively edited videos that they claim show "proof" of President Joe Biden's alleged physical infirmity, according to an NBC News report. These fraudulent clips purport to show the president wandering off, freezing up and sitting on non-existent chairs. Independent fact checkers and Biden campaign officials have sought to expose the videos, which in some cases entail cutting off a few seconds at the end or trimming off the edges of the image to present an entirely different story from reality. One video that purports to show Biden struggling to find a chair, for example, was cut off right before he sat down at the same time as French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife. Another video of Biden posing with other world leaders appears to show the president wandering off, but the original clip reveals that Biden was greeting a parachutist who had just landed as part of the ceremony. The deceptive videos, circulated by outlets like the New York Post and Fox News, exploit voters' concerns about Biden's age, which Donald Trump and other Republicans have consistently used as a campaign attack. This has created headaches for fact-checkers, whose detailed analysis inevitably struggle to get as many eyes as the original, viral videos. https://www.salon.com/2024/06/20/and-right-wing-media-outlets-are-increasingly-spreading-deceptively-edited-biden-videos/ For example the deceptive video with the paratroopers is shown at 1:06 and 1:52, in the link below where you can clearly see from another angle that Biden is interacting with a group of soldiers not wandering off The MO is basically to find a piece of video footage where Biden is talking to someone who is out of the camera shot and then claim he’s talking to nobody or staring at nothing Typical project vertitas republican altered reality garbage.

They're already looking for Dr. Frankenstein and installing a lightening conductor on the roof.

democrats wish you'd stop posting comments like this, User; it's damaging to their already loose grasp on reality. lol

The gift that keeps on giving.

Biden is not my boy Trump is only 3 years younger, older than Biden was in the last election. Trump’s showing his own signs of early dementia in the form of phonemic paraphasia, which is not just normal stumbling during speech but mixing up like-sounding syllables, get stuck on the same word and repeating it over and over, trailing off into silence mid sentence, interrupting himself mid sentence to go off an unrelated tangent, trying to get back on topic by suddenly yelling out a single key word from his intended point, etc. Personally my favourite is him turning words into long mush trails so like the word “Mexico” instead ends in “Mexiuuuuuuuuuh…..*silence*” and House of Representatives is “House of Repressshhhhhhhhh…*silence*” and then having completely lost his place, after a few awkward beats he tries to recover by shouting something like “IMMIGRANTS!” or whatever keyword his original sentence had been related to

1) So can we just acknowledge the fact that you're not willing to say "Joe Biden is of sound mind"? You'll go with this cheap fake story because you can't help but support a CNN disinformation piece, but you won't even hang your sterling repolitics reputation on a statement like: "Joe isn't entirely feeble and he is not well into cognitive decline." Thanks. 2) Trump did 2 and 3 rallies a day for a while. Trump spoke for several hours a day, with no teleprompter, for months on end, and that's all you've got? There's no comparison to Biden there. One of the videos that I posted of Biden was of him in his own basement, doing his only 20-minute speech of the day, or maybe even his only speech in a 2- or 3-day period, and it still came out all discombobulated. Trump's schedule was arguably 10,000 times what Biden's was in the 2020 campaign season. Trump was out in the heat for hrs a day and constantly travelling and still doing several hrs a day. Biden did 20 minutes every two days from is basement. Trump's schedule literally was 10,000 times harder than Biden's, and still Trump didn't look like a 1974 Datsun on an F1 track beside a McLaren. Biden just always looks like he's struggling to cross the finish line, even in a brief speech. It's blatant. He's done. *whispers* done... done...

Biden is 3 whole years older than Trump. Trump is now 1 year older than Biden was in the last election, and you claimed Biden was too old to run for office back then. Fact Check: D-Day video of Biden attempting to sit on chair is cropped By Reuters Fact Check June 19, 20248:15 AM EDTUpdated 2 days ago A video purportedly showing U.S. President Joe Biden attempting to sit on a chair that was not there has been cropped, with the full footage showing Biden looking over his shoulder for a chair and pausing before taking a seat. …A post sharing the video, opens new tab said: “Joe Biden tries to sit on a non-existent chair.” However, the video has been clipped right before Biden fully sits down on the chair that is present behind him.

But what else would anyone expect from a mindless follower of the Republican cult?

So you were wrong about the Supreme Court. Care to admit that you are clueless?

If you’re an observant Christian, why are you lying? Theres no law that says schools must display a poster of the noble truths of Buddhism, or statues of the gods of Hinduism, or Native American spirit warriors. And those laws would be unconstitutional as well. You’re pretending that you cannot overturn 75+ years of judicial findings, you’re being “persecuted.” But being denied the “right” to impose your religion upon others is not persecution, it’s the exact opposite. Teach your kids whatever religion you want and keep my kids out of it.

I was expecting a thread about tariffs, corporate welfare and such. Instead it seems to be exclusively about environmental regulations. So you are against that domain of government control. It doesn't make sense to me because at some level you would support government control over the environment, certainly. As well, you would certainly disallow levels of economic interchange for illicit things So what exactly is your guiding principle on this topic ? Have you thought about that ?

I agree with the idea that there's a mass morality at play, and that governments and cities are not just sanctioning but jumping on the bandwagon. And I agree that it effectively excludes certain groups from the public square. And that's a negative effect. But when a populist like Ford gets involved, you know it's because the numbers are telling him to. The angle that these festivals are unpopular doesn't compute. I think that some social conservative types can't accept that they're in the minority.

They're not read in. They have no access to classified documents or investigative findings... and rightly so. Their job is to ask obvious questions, hold the government to account, dig around, search out facts independently and report them. Just like they used to do back when they were largely considered to be a trusted institution.... remember those days? Your question itself shows how much we've slipped and how readily we've come to accept a new (and IMO dismal) standard of journalistic integrity. It's gotten to the point that consumers of news (especially partisan consumers of partisan news) are justifying the very biases in reporting that leave them ill informed in the first place.

I think they've decided to go with animatronics and a taxidermist instead. I've heard they intend to pay for it by selling ad space on his forehead. Joe Biden will now be known as "Pepsi presents Joe Biden".

I'm Canadian and I served in Canadian external affairs over seas for 7 years. You?

Good lord...do you practice sticking your tail between your legs for just these instances? I hope Trump wins, slams the border shut, and rounds up ALL of these illegals and deports ALL of them.!

No. No. No. It’s not “sarcastic” for the leader of the free world to tell the leader of Russia they can invade Western Europe. Especially when he’s the same piece of shlt who told Russia he would reward them for releasing Hillary’s emails… and they did. You don’t get to break the law and then say you were joking. Russia invading MORE countries, which is a very real threat, is not a joke.

Me: I give two specific examples of how illegal immigrants committed murder and cite specifics about the policies behind them You: You are generalizing all immigrants! Yeah, one of us is being deceptive here, it isn't me. Of course you did. It is a matter of routine with you now. When the going gets tough, you get going.

Leftists: "The improper use of pronouns hurts me deeply. I need an emotional support animal just to go to school because Twump got ewected." Also leftists: "Those guys should go to war, and fight to the last man, and we should give them money for it. We should just take it from everyone who has more money than I do. If you don't agree, you're a racist."

According to the link I posted, the media generally doesn't give much coverage to illegal immigrant crime. And if they do mention the story at all, they may leave out the fact that the perpetrator was in the country illegally. It's the same sort of thing say, if a shooter happens to be trans, then the story gets buried.

Think about what? It was a gotcha from the second sentence LOL

LOL indeed 🤣 Think about it. 🙄

1. I know that you don't accept the science on climate change. 2. I now know you don't accept the conclusions of marine biology (?) 3. I now know you don't trust the government. All I get from this is "no absolute rule" which, in legal terms, means "no rule". So you don't agree with environmental regulations I assume. Correct me if I'm wrong and if I am, try to state a principle even in general terms.

Ahhhhh, there it is! I was waiting for you to post an example of the science you are following. Everything makes sense now.

hence why Republicans must once again sound the trumpet which never calls retreat

"Pierre Poilievre’s refusal to get a national security clearance so he can read the report on foreign interference in Canada’s elections is raising eyebrows, with many suggesting that maybe he can’t get a security clearance because he poses a security risk. Nonsense! There are many totally reasonable reasons for why Mr. Poilievre would choose not to get cleared. Here are just a few: 1. He lost his National Security Clearance card and is too embarrassed to ask for a replacement 2. The day he was supposed to go for the interview was dollar shot night at O’Hallagans 3. His Russian and/or Indian government handlers told him not to 4. He heard you have to be vaccinated to get it 5. Getting it would require him to lie slightly less than he does currently 6. Some of his MPs have it and they promised to let him copy their notes 7. He doesn’t want to do anything Trudeau does. That’s also why he stopped showering and talking to his children 8. He doesn’t need to read the report on foreign collusion, as he remembers all the times he colluded with a foreign government very well 9. Being a national security risk is all part of the bad boy makeover he went through last summer 10. He’s too busy working 24/7 to assist struggling Canadians finally own the Libs. So there you go. The important thing to remember is he can get it if he wants to. For sure. Definitely."

An interesting article about how the media covers (or doesn't cover) the issue of crimes by illegal immigrants. https://thefederalist.com/2019/06/25/media-stop-hiding-truth-illegal-immigrant-crime/ Elites often repeat the talking point that immigrants commit fewer crimes than Americans. In truth, however, most states don’t keep comparative crime statistics. Regardless of the statistical breakdown, media outlets purposely ignore stories that upend their preferred immigrants-as-choirboys narrative.

I would never imply that Margaret Atwood was so cynical she doesn't care about making more money, she's perfectly content with her life at this juncture have you seen her lately ? she's a very old woman, with nothing to gain, nothing to lose

Another dumb thread... it's been documented for years that native-born Americans have a higher crime rate. First search I did yielded this paper. Retarded nanny goals regurgitate recycled FOX news cans, is my guess. Please rebut though, because I wasted mere minutes on this exercise in investigating chud news... https://www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1073/pnas.2014704117

Yeah, no crap. That is one of the points. You and other Democrats support letting an infinite amount of people go into our country on claims of asylum. However, in regards to this particular murderer, it was far worse than that. He was illegally let go on parole and worse than that even New York let him go before ICE could pick him up... because you Democrats don't give a crap about enforcing immigration laws. Even for criminals.

Nope you can’t acknowledge that. I am willing to say that Joe Biden is of Sound mind. False. Joe isn’t entirely feeble and he is not well into cognitive decline. He often uses a teleprompter and was recently upset when it wasn’t working Not that you need a teleprompter to rant like lunatic and Im sure he goes off screen anyway Trump complains about his teleprompters at a scorching Las Vegas rally Well into his speech, Trump said it was “not as bad” as he thought it would be, and said he was angrier with the teleprompters not working well, even when he used to mock President Barack Obama for relying on that device. “I pay all this money to teleprompter people, and I’d say 20% of the time, they don’t work,” he said, adding he would not pay the vendor who provided the prompters. “It’s a mess.” https://apnews.com/article/donald-trump-nevada-rally-heat-las-vegas-90b0c766b9bfc41b370953834b70f7c9 How ridiculous. Biden’s full time job is President of the United States not giving election speeches, which does on his personal time not taxpayers time. How do you not understand that?

No is required to believe in or follow the 10 commandments. It's mindless drives to suggest this establishes a religion.

The State can and does convey and educate students on the morality of the commons. Indeed if we couldn't, how could we elevate the nation and community values as being worthwhile. What we can't do is elevate Deism or aspects of it such as sabbaths or cultural prohibitions. You can't teach the Commandments because they are full of these, apart from... honour your parents and don't kill, steal or lie. Our collective morality has improved on these simple ideas over 5000 years or so. Moral progressivism is essential to our humanity and is even fuel for this board. But Deism is a personal matter and parents' rights material. You have no more right to teach my children that g-d exists than teaching that he doesn't.

Exactly. Plus the whole separation of church and state argument being brought in is pretty ignorant of the facts. Nobody is codifying Christianity as the official religion of the state which is really what separation of church and state is. It IS NOT grounds for eliminating Christianity or any other religion from the public square and shoving them into a corner so they can't support policy based on their religious belief

Yeah, suppose so, sorry. I just get wound up when I hear of "special" treatment of indians

Good. Let's use any means necessary to undo the Banana Republic b.s. that is the Biden admin.

There should be no parole. In fact a return of Capital punishment for violent crimes for repeat offenders (including rape) will solve this problem to a good extend.

Again, Russia invaded Ukraine. They can't just end the war. This is like saying the United States should have just surrendered to Hitler, because the most humane thing to do would be to end the war. Did Japan attack Pearl Harbor? Well, crap, no need for more loss of life, don't go to war with them at all. Do you support NATO/US giving money and materials to help Ukraine? Yes or No? Stop refusing to answer this question. Wait, what? This is complete ignorance or revisionism. The world did put pressure on Russia to not invade. Zelenkski was not acting or talking tough, like they were inviting a Russian invasion. They were pleading for peace the entire time Russia was building up its forces for an invasion. KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — With the Russian threat growing, the Ukrainian president is pleading for peace and says Russian President Vladimir Putin would not accept his call. In an emotional address to the nation late Wednesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky rejected Moscow’s claims that his country poses a threat to Russia and lamented that a Russian invasion would cost tens of thousands of lives." https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/ukrainian-president-pleads-for-peace-amid-russian-threat So... again, do you favor supporting Ukraine in their war against Russia? Of course this is a concern which is why so many in NATO/US continue to push for this support to continue. This is not the only possible outcome. You presume a prolonged war with continued costs to Russia is just something they will live with and history proves otherwise. There is no foregone conclusion that Russia will be able or willing to simply go on forever. The war can certainly become too costly for them as well. Stop them... how? Your argument is not to stop them, it is give up. And so far... you have yet to clarify for me where you stand on helping Ukraine to stop them. Well, let me know when you can provide more than such a simple vague response that doesn't actually respond to anything I said directly.
