If you believe Tucker to be delivering real, actual, truthful news, you're not a reasonable person, as both Tuckers lawyers have argued and a federal judge has agreed that his statements are intended to be entertainment and not based in fact.

So guess how much time I give to what he says?

So what part of the video clip are you challenging?

That's the problem you people (forum members participating in this thread) have.

You don't want dialog. I got stupid comments about Tuckers Tie, KA24 crying about his Dad and now you posting a completely irrelevant NRP article.


Are you challenging...

Military Presence in thr Capital
Permanent Walls and Barriers
Troops in Syria
+1000 Executives Orders
AOC lying about Ted Cruise "literally trying to murder her"
Covid Death Tracker
Covid Bullshit
Big Tech 100% Support of the DMC
DNC continuing to build boarder "fences" and travel ban of "terrorists"...

On and on

[kingkilburn]

You need to make an argument. You. Not Tucker "The Entertainer" Carlson. You. The guy isn't an authority on anything and no one cares what he has to say.

[KA24DESOneThree]

Corbic, have you considered being a professional dancer?

Your footwork dodging actual questions (and providing actual answers) is impeccable.

Military presence started with Trump.

Permanent wall? Not officially. Only right-wing sources are claiming it's going to be permanent.

Troops in Syria were increased by Trump in September. We shouldn't be there.

Trump signed 894 executive actions, of which 220 were executive orders. Biden has signed, afaik, 23 orders and 38 actions in total. Yes, that's a fuckton in the first month of presidency. If it keeps this pace, it'll be something over 1800 actions over his presidency. Not cool. Edit: it's 29 executive orders and 36 actions total as of 2/5. 1 order and 2 memoranda TBA. Trump was at 7 orders/15 actions total as of the same date.

Yeah, AOC was out of line there.

COVID death tracker/bullshit: No idea what you're on about.

Big Tech 100% support of the DNC: Wrong. Fix your number.

DNC border fence and travel ban of terrorists: Biden pressed pause on 1/27. Also reimposed COVID travel ban.

I mean, I could claim that the republican party is secretly controlled by atlantean child sex predators who are seeking to overthrow the governments of the surface world.

What good does it do to refute that, especially when I can just follow it up with a good old gish gallop?

I'm not going to be engaging with people who are just interested in getting a reaction and/or wasting my time with a dishonest debate.

Fulton County GA has opened a criminal investigation into Trump and his efforts to overturn their election results.

who needs toilet paper when we have reporter kilburnnn on the scene, providing us with cutting-edge news.

lot of smoke and mirrors to distract the public with that kangaroo court

[kingkilburn]

So you bumped the thread with nothing but your hurt feelings, as a distraction?

Now that the "January Exception" has been established. This may be the only avenue of accountability for the actions of the former US president.

[KA24DESOneThree]

Accountability?

There's no accountability. Get insider knowledge as a result of your office and trade upon it? Nothing. Crash the economy? Nothing. Twiddle your thumbs while people suffer? Nothing. Preside over one of the largest data breaches in government history? Nothing. Tweet support and admiration for a group of violent imbeciles doing something quite literally unheard of? Nothing.

Fuck them all. Have we tried turning it off and back on again?

Edit: Pelosi's calling for a commission for what happened on 1/6. So we can what, exactly? The 9/11 Commission found that Saudi Arabia was culpable for 9/11 and we're STILL sending arms to those sons of bitches.

if you aint for biden you aint black?

somebody enroll him in a white guilt session with robin diangelo

[KA24DESOneThree]

Oooh, what if it's like subliminal messaging? While talking world policy, he'll just casually drop an n-word and he'll get Trump conservatives to start listening. "You know, Biden's starting to make a lot of sense. He's using terminology we understand."

tf outta here. He's already stumbling over his words and everyone knows he still has stuttering problems. I don't like the man but it's pretty obvious this is absolutely fucking nothing.

[kingkilburn]

Pour one out for another red tictac an hero.

[kingkilburn]

Senators Manchin and Sinema are fucking up the whole flow, man. The Senate is forever the super villain of the american people.

i know lots of people who stutter, none of them stutter that word. biden cant even get a few words out without showing dementia. besides whos listening? maybe communists

trump tossed out a 2hr speech like a pro, entire country pays attention.

skip the race card bs, that shit is old and tired

[kingkilburn]

You say that like we all didn't sit through four years of Trump's catatonic slur-fests a clockwork orange style.

[KA24DESOneThree]

lol "entire country pays attention"

I didn't even know Trump was speaking at CPAC. I was and am barely aware CPAC exists. "Breaking news: white people get together to talk about not changing."

Oh fuck. Sign me up. I heard they had a golden calf- where were Bartleby and Loki when you need 'em?

It's looking more likely that Cuomo will step down as NY Governor.

[KA24DESOneThree]

As well he should.

No politician should be on a pedestal, and all his posturing after the fact doesn't change that NY was woefully underprepared for COVID. Add that he doesn't respect or understand boundaries between him and his female staff and voila, a career disappears.

Now curious as to how these charges get laid out.

I predict a fair amount of what aboutism is coming.

[kingkilburn]

Roy Blunt isn't running for reelection. That's five Republican senators retiring before the next election.

It's very telling that the majority of dems aren't rushing to his defense, and that most are in favor of him answering for his misdeeds.
A rather stark contrast to how conservatives behave when their leadership is found to be doing dirty.

[cured13]

Is this April 1 or we kept our heads in ours assess for to long.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DH4v6FnbvM

Must be fake media.

[KA24DESOneThree]

No, keeping our heads in our asses is the only way to stay warm.

The US has lost its vibrancy. Instead, we defend business like it gives a shit about us (newsflash: it doesn't and it's not a fucking free market you dolts) and squabble about every fucking thing. We circle our wagons around our political parties despite them miring us in bureaucracy we'll spend the next century unfucking.

I swiped right on anarchism a while back.

[Future240]

We a few months in. What yall think of the potus so far? yay? nay?

[mrturboextreme]

Just came here to say nay.

[deolio]

I like that he undid a lot of Trump's bullshit executive orders in regards to immigration, the environment, and equality and that someone has finally taken charge of the response to Covid, but I don't like the excessive use of executive orders.

He's already accomplished nearly half of his campaign promises, which is surprising for someone who can barely complete a sentence. And he hasn't incited violence or made any ignorant tweets, so that's a nice change of pace.

Still a senile shitbird maintaining the status quo and fueling a bloated government spending budget, but 9000% better than the alternative...
