Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 20, 2019 Members Share Posted June 20, 2019 If my post alluded to the aspect that the U.S. is using Iran as a smokescreen for MBS/KSA, I should have been clearer-- I meant to say it straight out. Again, the provocation and reprisals with Iran is meant to draw attention away from MBS/KSA who is being scrutinized once again for their part in Kashoggi's killing. The U.N. wants further investigation, which the Trump administration and MBS/KSA obviously don't want because for them, it's bad for business. If you look at the social media of Agnes Callamard, who led the investigation and prepared the report for the U.N., you will see she is being swarmed by Saudi operatives, many who are paid to send out spam subtweets to harass her. It's an organized effort and it's become their M.O. Hopefully some further investigation will eventually be mounted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 21, 2019 Members Share Posted June 21, 2019 https://www.cnn.com/2019/06/21/politics/trump-military-strikes-iran/index.html We're getting to that point again where I feel like we're close to a living hell, a mistake that there's no way we can come back from, similar to the games Trump played with North Korea. Maybe even wore as there are clearly very powerful people in Trump's orbit pushing and pushing to bomb Iran, as they are either deluded enough to think that we will defeat them, or they know we won't, but that they will get to go to Heaven. It's getting to that point again where I'm scared to go to bed and scared to wake up in the morning. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 21, 2019 Members Share Posted June 21, 2019 Meanwhile the kakistocracy known as the Trump administration is deliberately sowing chaos and confusion with provocation and reprisals with Iran, is anybody in West Virginia paying attention to this? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted June 21, 2019 Members Share Posted June 21, 2019 I'm sorry to hear that. It really is hard living with Trump's instability and evil. It's an awful combination. I can only assume that the people in charge who are beating the war drums have a financial interest in perpetual war. How strange to think that Trump is the one who called off strikes on Iran 10 mins before we hit them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 21, 2019 Members Share Posted June 21, 2019 So many Americans seem intent on ignoring the fact that Trump is a predator, a thug and a criminal. Will Ms. Carroll's account be added to the nearly two dozen other women who publicly proclaimed Trump to be a sexual predator, only to be discarded when Trump hurls insults? It's disgusting the level of criminality and scandal that Trump brings with him. It's constant, you can barely catch your breath! Another trash person who has managed to scale political heights despite also having zero regard for women. If they, in the U.K. had any sense at all, they'd dump him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wendy Posted June 21, 2019 Members Share Posted June 21, 2019 GOP lawmakers skipped town to avoid a vote. Then the governor called the police. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 21, 2019 Members Share Posted June 21, 2019 The people who already hate him will believe her. Others will think it's all a lie (I have already seen people claiming it's Kavanaugh all over again and he's being set up). And of course others will believe her but not care because they hate women anyway and Trump is their hero. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Wendy Posted June 22, 2019 Members Share Posted June 22, 2019 The GOP rep stating that whichever police officer searching for him had better be armed and single was a lovely touch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted June 22, 2019 Members Share Posted June 22, 2019 We need some kind of national day of protest, which I don't say lightly. It's not every day that I'm willing to risk jail or getting my ass kicked by the police, but we have to take a stand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted June 22, 2019 Members Share Posted June 22, 2019 I love the way these judges are looking and speaking to the government lawyer like she is an idiot. How embarrassing for her. Also, I can't believe this is real life. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted June 22, 2019 Members Share Posted June 22, 2019 (edited) Oh, well, lol. Mayor Pete seems like he "means well," but it's just like what you said, @marceline: he's just not qualified for the gig.
