Drill Baby Drill...the US Politics Thread (Part 3)

Regarding the Belorussian sanction lifting today (I know, i should have posted this above, but kind of forgot to explain why it is so bad):

It directly aids the struggling Russian fleet. Grounding that, was talked about as a card (not the best one, but one of many) to end the war a couple of years ago and they are desperate for spareparts. Again, it makes no sense. Nothing positively has changed in Belarus since sanctions were first enacted, to the contrary ! They have signed a pact with Russia to station short and medium range nuclear missiles (which with another US president, would have lead to a response), they have deepen cooperation in the war and the last election is still a scam; the opposition totally crushed. Belarus is right now, at this very moment, building a launch base for nuclear missiles:

I mean, HELLO ??? Is anyone home there? How can you lift sanctions at a time they are about to make preparations to deploy hypersonic nuclear missiles ? Makes no sense; unless it is to reward Russia. Shouldn’t the point be to persuade them not to deploy these ? It’s baffling.

Is it payback for getting some prisoners released ?

But there is sanction relief and then there is sanction relief. I hardly mind rewarding Luka for releasing prisoners. But Luka’s crackdown continues, so does his military build up. It baffling to then relieve the sanctions that hurt the most.

Hang on, I’m hearing something in my ear now…uh, Kash’s plane has landed in Wyoming. He is not in Utah.

Interesting that George Conway posted this 5 hours ago. We discussed how NSDAP exploited the murder of Wessel here after Kirk got assassinated.

They will do nothing but get in investigator’s ways. This is the clearest ā€œI go there just to be seenā€ I’ve come across for a while :smiley:

Now the ATF are backing away from his claim that they have bullets in the woods with ā€œTransgender ideologyā€ engraved on them he wants to go there in person to grab one to justify his earlier claims.

Depressing…

It’s not possible that it was a mistake, but nevermind.

On the one hand they are up in arms about the left’s refusal to engage in debate when they simply disagree with the other person. On the other hand…

Also note, they will define ā€œcelebratingā€ extremely loosely. We’re already seeing the, condemn anyone who acknowledges the reality of Kirk’s prominent role in the toxicity of the discourse as ā€œcelebratingā€.

I know it’s extremely difficult to uproot your entire life and just leave… but the direction that country is going is clear as day at this point.

Yeah you either leave the US or start challenging the deplorables - otherwise you/ your offspring will end up in a North Korea mark II.

Maybe choose slightly different phrasing. MAGA isn’t an army grouping.
There is no civil war yet, and instigating one is hardly going to save the US.

I see the shooter has already been given the death penalty.

The wheels of justice turn pretty fucking quickly in Utah!!!

The fact that they are holding ill-prepared press conferences, leaking incorrect information, are offering a reward, and over 24 hours in basically have a mediocre photo says they are at sea on this.

In hindsight, firing the highly regarded head of the Salt Lake City FBI office in August may not have been the best choice. If it hits 48 hours, chances of being the Ted Kaczynski of the new century step up significantly

They certainly appear to be totally lost and at panic stations.
Now the person is being told the death penalty awaits it might make it harder to catch the person.
Hope the fit up answer doesn’t crop up!

There’s every chance that the person has probably escaped the country as well. All they have is a mediocre photo.

Oh yeah, he’s gonna add so much to the investigation. :roll_eyes:

Kash is one of those people that would get lost walking in a straight line
