The Debate Tonight
ironstone replied to gatomontes99's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/politics/417938/donna-brazile-finally-admits-she-shared-debate-questions-with-clinton-campaign/ This link says questions and not topics. With the exception of FOX, for the most part, the mainstream media are quite supportive of the Democrats and go hard against the Republicans. If this debate was to be held on FOX with Sean Hannity as the moderator, Democrats would have major concerns about fairness, and rightfully so. -
The Debate Tonight
ironstone replied to gatomontes99's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
I did get that wrong. As you said, it was a primary. But it still raises questions about CNN and their bias. Would Donna Brazile have been fired if she hadn't been caught? And I am still skeptical about this debate. The media has on occasion, given their prepared questions to Joe Biden's team in advance of press conferences. Like a 'cheat sheet'. -
The Debate Tonight

I wonder if Trump will listen to advice and just let Joe speak and not try to interrupt him. It is going to be difficult for Trump to have to debate Joe and Jake Tapper too. And did CNN already hand over their questions to Biden well in advance? As they did for Hillary before she debated Trump? Think about that, this network GAVE their list of questions to the Democrat presidential candidate in advance. They wanted one side to have a clear advantage over the other. A supposed news organization. -
Snopes Gets it Right To Save Joe

I think violent mobs physically tearing down statues is more threatening. And when you add in the fact that these mobs are incredibly stupid as well... https://globalnews.ca/news/7101452/madison-wisconsin-hans-christian-heg/ If they tore down the statue of an abolitionist...by your own logic, they must have felt threatened by it as well? Why do you think they tore down the statue of an abolitionist? -
Member of the Squad goes down in flames
ironstone replied to Fluffypants's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Is that an actual acknowledgment that the squad members are extremists? According to Wikipedia there are still eight of them at this time. -

Democrats are starting to admit the truth

Speaking of Alvin Bragg and the notion that no one is above the law... https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/outrage-as-manhattan-da-bragg-s-office-drops-nearly-all-cases-from-columbia-university-s-anti-israel-protest/ar-BB1oBDB4 -
I would have no problem with it. I would have a problem with the other truck that displayed Zionism=Terrorism I agree with this guy, all cultures are not equal, some are better than others. Please take note of the crime stats from other countries... And what is Islamophobia? Any bit of criticism of Islam is apparently Islamophobic.

AOC Calling For Violence

Didn't Trump draw a bigger crowd in the Bronx? -
So do progressives not want crimes that are committed by refugees to be reported at all? Do you want those criminals to be treated more leniently? Maybe Germany is the place to go.

Ontario needs to invest in EVs as a realistic Option.
ironstone replied to Boges's topic in Provincial Politics in Canada
They've got a long way to go if the market today is any indication. https://insideevs.com/news/713577/ev-50k-losses-bcg-study/ https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/24/business/ford-earnings-ev-losses/index.html Ford’s electric vehicle unit reported that losses soared in the first quarter to $1.3 billion, or $132,000 for each of the 10,000 vehicles it sold in the first three months of the year, helping to drag down earnings for the company overall. I believe the cheapest EV in Canada now is the Nissan Leaf at about 41 grand. -

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigration/tren-de-aragua-venezuelan-gang-members-slip-into-us-rcna156290 It is just so dangerous to let masses of people in without the ability to properly vet them. "More than 330,000 Venezuelans crossed the U.S. border last year, according to Customs and Border Protection data, and Venezuela, like Cuba, China and a handful of other countries, doesn’t provide any criminal history information to U.S. officials." Venezuela , Cuba,China and a handful of other countries...DO NOT PROVIDE ANY CRIMINAL HISTORY INFORMATION to the US. And progressives see absolutely nothing wrong with this. To equate someone that crossed the border illegally, then gets briefly detained and quickly released to go where they please as being the same as someone that entered the country through proper channels is quite a stretch. By that twisted logic, there is no such thing as an illegal immigrant.

I hope you're not blaming Republicans for the sorry state of Detroit and the state in general. Detroit is a longstanding Democrat stronghold is it not? What else is happening in Michigan lately that might be raising eyebrows? https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/columnist/2024/04/14/death-america-protest-michigan-whitmer-tlaib-silent/73288232007/

Another Woman Murdered by Illegal Immigrant
ironstone replied to User's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
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. -
Another Woman Murdered by Illegal Immigrant
ironstone replied to User's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
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. -
That sounds like a no to me.
