    @ rain of lead:

    At the end of the day, I’m no more impressed by this arrest than I am by most of the Muslim “terror plots” the FBI supposedly prevents. Just because you have a handful of inbred morons sitting around bitching about Whitmer and fantasizing about kidnapping her doesn’t mean they ever could have carried it out.

    Oh dear….looks like Steve Scully, moderator of the next debate, was caught communicating with Anthony Scary-MOOCHie, about how to “handle” Trump. These two mental midgets apparently thought they were DM’ing each other on Twitter; instead they were talking openly on each others’ time lines. They have apparently since deleted these Tweets, but darn it – those pesky “screenshots” are forever (countdown to one or both saying their accounts were hacked)….

    @ lobo91:

    Mark Levin went thru the entire process that is SUPPOSED to be in place and showed how it isn’t. Either Pelosi doesn’t understand (which I don’t believe because there are experts on this stuff on Hill staff) or she’s just grandstanding.

    @ The Barbarian:

    That’s very strange. There’s context missing. The conversation sounds like Scully is not talking about the debate but something in real time.


  10. 11 | October 9, 2020 10:35 am

    @ eaglesoars:

    Once Scully realized we had the story, he completely nuked his Twitter account. Then came back with the offending Tweet deleted. Why would anyone go to Mooch, though? He’s nothing more than a political con-man who has NO insight to the President.

    In other news, Barr advises Durham’s report won’t be released until after the election. Color me surprised. If President Trump loses, I predict the damn thing won’t be released at all. It would be pointless. Biden AG won’t pursue it.

    Moderator Steve Scully faces calls to be disqualified from the next presidential debate for tweeting Anthony Scaramucci asking ‘Should I respond to Trump?’ after the President called him a ‘never-Trumper’ who worked for Biden

  14. 15 | October 9, 2020 10:42 am

    Now they’re saying they were “hacked”

    Right….and when he goes back online, he doesn’t mention the hacking. Now explain MOOCH.


  15. 16 | October 9, 2020 10:47 am

    Newt thinks that the 25th Amendment ploy by Pelosi is the long con – it’s in preparation for removing Biden and replacing him with Harris. After all, the Cabinet isn’t going to call for Trump’s removal and the “other body as Congress may designate” would involve assent by the Senate, which isn’t going to happen – at least not right now.


  16. 17 | October 9, 2020 10:53 am

    2) Will the Debate Commission make sure the hackers are brought to justice?

    Mooch is such a liar. What he doesn’t want to do is answer questions about that “something bad” coming down.

    Sorry, but Scully should be replaced after this. As a former intern for Biden, he should never have been appointed in the first place.

    TECHNOLOGY ALERT
    Twitter Slows Down Retweets Ahead of U.S. Election

    Twitter will make it harder for posts to go viral ahead of the U.S. election, including by putting limits on how users can retweet.

    The moves unveiled Friday, which also include pointing users viewing certain tweets to credible content, are among the boldest yet for the social-media platform and are designed to slow the spread of misinformation.

    I can not believe how good Trump sounds. I think he was the most energetic, knowledgeable, on point and as energetic as I’ve ever heard him.
    Anyone listening to what I just listened to, if they are sane and have an IQ higher than a pile of loose stool on a SF street HAS to realize they have been conned by the msm/dem party and their leaders. I hope the show will be available on youtube by tomorrow.

    And I’m picturing Barr right now looking like the character played by Martin Short, the sweaty lip, chain smoking dude from that old SNL skit from ’85 or so.

    Oh they are. “Shouldn’t he be doing the country’s business, blah blah blah.”

    Funny but they had no problem with Oblahblah going on the show of a skank who wears green lipstick and eats friggin’ cereal out of a bathtub filled with milk. But you know, dignity of the Presidency.

    Also…these idiots really have NO idea of Rush Limbaugh’s reach. They keep thinking he has 4 or 5 million listeners. Latest results say it somewhere near 50 million. Hell, Hannity has something like 20 million and Levin is in the 10 million range.

    They’re just extraordinarily jealous that they have no live forum that is in the same ZIP code as this.


  43. 45 | October 9, 2020 3:09 pm

    @ eaglesoars:

    Nah – libs have been snarking about it since Rush announced it yesterday. I’m sure they were all set to call in and be abusive – my understanding is that the questions were submitted in writing and given to the President.

    So it looks like Keith Olberdork was kicked off ESPN (AGAIN!) and is going back to the YouTube Rant. He says he “quit to serve his country and work to get rid of Trump.”

    Reminds me of a has-been jazz guitarist with a probably graying ponytail who said his mission in life was the same thing. Wonder if he also suffers from the same small pecker syndrome Keefy has.

    I was on my FB page earlier today and everything seemed to be normal. I came home this evening, around 10:30pm, and tried to log in – nothing, zip, zero, nada, my page will not load. I wouldn’t really care except for if they’ve scrubbed my page (who is ‘they’ ?) I’d have to start all over again getting in touch with old friends who are scattered around the world etc etc, a big PITA. It will be the first time I’ve bee3n kicked out of anything since the Great Purge of that bloated Chucky Chitos site – how many years ago now ? I don’t respond well to being kicked out of ANYTHING. Never have. But maybe I’m over reacting … being the ‘sensitive’ type and all (fuckum n feedum beans).

    “The feelings the same as being outside of the law …”
    ‘Cept’n of course, I don’t cry.

    “I wouldn’t want to belong to a club that would have me as a member”

    Anyone here a FB member and still awake enough to reply ? FB down do yinz know ? Maybe theres a big ‘conservative types’ purge on ? Maybe it (FB) imploded ? I see nothing on google etc.

    I know, it seems I’m always asking for something here rather than contributing. Sorry for this. I’m just not adapting well to
    this whole ‘gettin’ old’ thing. But anybody ?
