Starr-Bills

Since you all on here are all big data nerds, here’s a more academic take on the RU influence campaign

Uh well they all made mistakes. Bush led us in to Iraq for 20 years and cratered the economy so you know a different level from him. Btw why leave Biden out, he’s potus not Harris.

His dad did own an opal mine. He did luck out with PayPal’s sale… kinda like being born on 3rd base and claiming your disadvantaged because it wasn’t a home run.

RFK jr, King maker…

as he said, if your explaining you're losing.

Are we still doing this?

Same guy who set up that situation you are upset about, is trying to profit off those families loss. But you do you. Also looks like despite the call to close ranks, there are sill some leaks in the felon's boat.

This is concerning if true. This is why a license, regulation & insurance system (like for cars) is important that we start talking about how to implement. It's wont stop all or motivated individuals, but I believe it will go a long way to slowing this insanity down.

Is that the same Ron Johnson who was supposed to deliver those fake electors on J6, yea I bet he is a impartial actor and believable source.

sigh, Bring out this gem again. (note this is NOT a SNL skit).

This is my personal favorite (well the blue throwbacks are nice as well and I like the red helmet but now may age is showing)

I think it’s less connect with and more a shared sense of grievance and victimhood masquerading as ‘telling it like it is’ or ‘saying what he means’ which gives them permission to speak act or feel the same. it is different than most politicians but not most populist/authoritarian leaders.

This is a good insight, I would just add that as we are seeing in the last day or so, this is actually a kgb/fsb tactic employed by / enabled by the Trump campaign. The overall goal is not for Trump to win but to diminish faith in the US government, it just happens that this goal lines up with wealthy interests in the US that also want to see the government weakened enough to ‘Starve the beast

I like to think I'm sarcastic, and maybe even a little sardonic with a touch of wry wit, but man I got nothing on you (and the person who wrote this tweet).

It doesn't have to be successful to have happened. You could try and rob a bank but not succeed and still be guilty of the crime of bank robbery. I believe also because people believed it in 2020 (Muller report, impeachment, et al) where as in 2016 it caught everyone by surprise. but just speculating on that.

Russian interference in: 2016 2020 2024 is that bingo or kismet?

I’m sold on this guy. What an amazing answer. the real question is how did a guy like this go bankrupt 6 time? Or end up owing $500,000,000 to ny state for fraud?

I wonder what this genius would want a sovereign wealth fund for… doesn’t he think of himself as a sovereign, I feel like I’m close to figuring this out if I could just connect the final dots. Also is this like low positive Trump in the way he says things like my friends it’s just so weird like it delivery is so weird and the weirdest part is I think he thinks he’s an eloquent speaker.

Not an op. And so not weird.

He was not providing them to Russia. But he is not shutting them off knowing they are being used by Russians.

This IS a Trump 2024 thread, so kinda goes with the territory. He is the one who "decided to run again I would have been happy if he had gone away after he lost, I wound't have followed his trials, etc. but no he decided he had to run, to put off the trials and make money to pay for the lawyers. I've had to hear about this trash person for decades, divorces, bankruptcy's multiple marriages and some stupid TV show that was on air for more than a decade (guess people will watch anything). If he would just go away everyone would much happier.

Some people have friends who run a carrier group, others may have friends who know that Musk is kept away from anything important at both SpaceX & Tesla, less so at twitter to resounding effect. YMMV.

Show don't tell.

So those right wing folks get rolled up in a Ru info Op and you Immediately think Putins word is anything but more propaganda? how do you manage to get your shoes on the right foot in the morning?
