Trump, Accurately, Says That the Clinton News Network Is Fake News; the Clinton News Network Reacts Predictably



The media is once again insisting that you can't criticize them, for fear that your criticism of actual bias and unprofessionalism will have Vague Hypothetical Connections to Other Things:




Here's some of that Real CNN news everyone loves:



This is pretty funny:



Unrelated, but someone trolled Jonathan Chait (who just wrote up the laughable defense of Trump/Putin conspiracy theories) pretty nicely.



I guess this is like a sexual assault, by the pansy media's rules?

Thing is, they are not a real network. A network is an organization of many nodes which are linked together in some manner to transmit information in both directions. In the broadcast industry lots of local affiliates linked together. CNN is, as I understand it, one single producing node that sends content over infrastructure owned and operated by others. That is not a network.

The time stamps contained in the released computer files metadata establish that, at 6:45 p.m. July 5, 2016, 1,976 megabytes (not megabits) of data were downloaded from the DNCs server. This took 87 seconds, which means the transfer rate was 22.7 megabytes per second, a speed, according to VIPS, that is much faster than what is physically possible with a hack.Such a speed could be accomplished only by direct connection of a portable storage device to the server. Accordingly, VIPS concluded that the DNC data theft was an inside job by someone with physical access to the server.

Also read a great article on the pub that re-named themselves after him for the visit. Heart-warming.

233 Truly incredible that these MSM types have no self awareness or even a sense of irony.

One might argue that Hannity is as far over the top pro-Trump as 90% of these hacks were over the top for Obama. But Fox overall has not been some sort of pro-Trump bandwagon (Shep Smith is certainly a lefty POV) and Trump deals just fine with that.

Maybe if CNN or MSNBC were even remotely objective in their coverage of Trump, they might not find him so difficult to deal with.

It's just someone getting trolled. I will try to translate it:
1) Honest question posed (should I go to the ER?).
2) Reasonable answer given in a nice tone, with an acronym that looks like it could reasonably be a term of art.
3) Response question about the acronym and what it means
4) A trolled-out response. The troll trapped him with a reasonable answer and then broke out the hate. The response:
"Bofa deeze commie nuts moist boi"
Translated as far as I can:
Bofa: Both of
Deeze: These
Commie nuts: The testicles of a communist. Presumably the person being trolled is some kind of commie fellatio enthusiast (or at least, that is the implication)
Moist: I am sure this is something, but I don't know it in this context.
Boi: Boy, but usually this spelling implies immature or effeminate.

Elective cosmetic surgery (and including things like lasik) is the only part of the medical field in the US where costs aren't skyrocketing like the rest of the industry.

If only there were some sort of less on we could take in the economics of these cases and apply it to the broader issue of rising medical cost.

441 Elective cosmetic surgery (and including things like lasik) is the only part of the medical field in the US where costs aren't skyrocketing like the rest of the industry.

There's a TV show called Botched that follows two very well regarded plastic surgeons. One specializes more on noses, the other on breasts. They get the horror story cases.

Apparently, at least for a while, you didn't need to be board certified to do elective plastic surgery. So there were doctors who didn't specialize in surgery at all who were doing nose jobs and boob jobs and etc.

So these guys would get cases where some dentist just sort of winged it and didn't follow any sort of best practices.

Even worse would be the people who traveled to Mexico or Brazil to get things done that even American dentists refused to do.

So yeah, if you're looking to get plastic surgery done, look for someone who is ABMS certified and be prepared to pay a bit more.

2018

Unemployed London protesters float a baby Trump balloon. Americans see it, think it's cute and want to buy them. A new business is born, balloons, T-shirts, coffee mugs, etc. Millions sold in first month.

They do, but subject to a lot of restrictions. Air guns are popular because they aren't as heavily-regulated. Shooting rats and pigeons with pellet guns is popular. Not kidding.
Posted by: Meade Lux Lewis at July 13, 2018 03:38 PM (HiLJ1)


Yes, I know. But it is on the newer stuff. A lot of old WW II stuff is still around and working, and they have no records of it so they can't confiscate it. Then there is the hunting gear.

Thank God the pellet guns are still allowed, even while they are confiscating knifes and screwdrivers, and talking about making butter knives less sharp (not joking). I figure if the Muzzies start using those pellet guns, et.al., then confiscation will begin on those.

The trick to surviving undertow is not to fight it, but to let it take you out a little bit from shore. Then, once you know longer feel the pull, swim parallel to the shore until you can safely ride a wave in. That's if you can swim. If not, well, stay out of the water.

601 Prosecutors accuse the Russians of communicating with a real U.S. person affiliated with a Texas-based grassroots organization. They learned from that person to focus their activities on "purple states like Colorado, Virginia and Florida," the indictment says.


It also says the group's employees - referred to as "specialists" - created social media accounts to look like they were operated by Americans. They created group pages on Facebook and Instagram with names like "Secured Borders," "Blacktivist" (to promote the Black Lives Matter movement), "United Muslims of America," "Army of Jesus," "South United" and "Heart of Texas."

They also created and controlled numerous Twitter accounts, like one named "Tennessee GOP" under the (at)TEN_GOP handle that attracted more than 100,000 followers.

According to the indictment, the specialists were instructed to post content online that criticized "Hillary and the rest (except Sanders and Trump - we support them)."

It said they used pro-Trump, anti-Clinton hashtags online like "#Trump2016," "#TrumpTrain," "#MAGA," "#IWontProtectHillary," and "Hillary4Prison."

As if, after finally having a taste of fighting and winning against the progressive juggernaut, we'd just resign ourselves once again to playing the Washington Generals-style controlled opposition, offering feeble token resistance to the latest liberal outrage before meekly submitting?
Sorry Jonah, that horse is already out of the barn.
The most eye-opening aspect of the Trump era has been the chilling understanding of how completely we were sold out and betrayed by soulless neocon vampires like Jonah Goldberg, Bill Kristol et al., mouthing platitudes about "muh constitution" and "muh free market" while systematically hollowing out our nation.
Truly, they had better hope that they don't get their wish and manage to depose the people's duly-elected president in some kind of sleazy deep state coup, because I believe they'd like who comes next even less.
