The German media was fully aligned with the US media.

Some just swallowed it hook and sinker.

Nobody actually looked up the original speeches of Trump and tried to translate or verify the claims from the MSM.

Many, probably including her, still think Trump was saying inject bleach with a syringe into the blood to fix covid. When he actually tried to talk about a machine that does this similar to dialysis. just Trump was too incompetent to word it out and the media ran with it.

Theres a quiz for that!

I think the message is clear "no one is above the law" and another message to Trump might have been "you will not be treated differently than any body else", although I suspect he was treated much better than anybody else during the process.

This has to be a joke , you can’t see the irony ? Joe and Hunter Biden are above the law , that’s obvious and has been shown again and again. Trump has been treated differently. The media and political machine have put out a hit piece on trump for 10 years . He’s been treated the same as hitlers opposition, maos opponents. Can anyones ignorance compare with yours ? Deny it , don’t embrace it and spread it around live in it constantly. Use your br

lol
All I am saying is that the argument 30 FBI agents somehow are responsible for the actions of more than 2 000 people is ridiculous.
Unless you want to portray all of them as mindless drones who desperately need baby sitting because otherwise they just follow the next dumb duck into the oven.

See the difference is I trust nobody. But there are rules and institutions.
You seem to trust one guy and that one is an idiot but in your mind he supercedes all rules and institutions.
I think that's wrong.

That is a ridiculous argument. Good thing I'm not making it. What argument I am making is that what business does the FBI have with infiltrating a group to assist it to carry out an illegal plan. Moreover why is it partisan in nature?

Unless you want to portray all of them as mindless drones who desperately need baby sitting because otherwise they just follow the next dumb duck into the oven.

That's the exact statement one of the FBi informants made during trial in the FBIs defense. That there were thousands of people going with the flow.

See the difference is I trust nobody. But there are rules and institutions.

Rules are made by somebody, institutions are somebodies.....Yet you trust that what they are doing now is legitimate even though you "trust nobody."

This is absurd logic.

You seem to trust one guy and that one is an idiot but in your mind he supercedes all rules and institutions.
I think that's wrong.

Yay, another strawman, youre constructing an army!


See the difference is I don't trust the institutions that have a long and sorted history of corruption. Even if that is wielded against someone I may or may not believe to have done wrong.

Did you see how I mentioned Alex Jones in my OP for reference?

a reply to: JinMI

because it is an institution of the same state those people at the Capitol wanted to overthrow. What is so difficult to understand about that?
Because it is basically terrorism. Attacking the State.
That's why they're partisan. It isn't about party or Trumpster it is about protecting the gov & institutions the FBI is a part of.

Alex Jones is an agent of the same apocalyptic cabal as Bannon.

I feel the same way about you guys.

a reply to: Peeple

So it is partisan in your opinion then. It's ok when one side does it, yet not the other.

Crystal clear.

Alex Jones is an agent of the same apocalyptic cabal as Bannon.

So they should not be able to speak because you disagree with them.


Keep talking, this is getting good.

My resistance to blurting out a German joke is getting weak however....

a reply to: JinMI

it is not about party, I already said that. Maybe try pulling your head out of where-the-sun-doesn't-shine and read with your brain turned on instead of stand-by what I actually wrote?

I recall you lauding the 2020 riots....

Or am I mistaken?

a reply to: JinMI

And they pair nicely with mushrooms and some asparagus in butter sauce.

a reply to: JinMI

yes.

I understand where you guys are coming from as much as I did with BLM. I 'laude' neither, just around here there are not many I have to explain your motifs to, are there?
That's why it might appear maybe a little obtuse

a reply to: Peeple

Oh, my bad...nothing to see here then...

They're out there rioting, looting, burning, because they don't feel they belong. Because your America and their America are two seperate worlds.
And the divide is not republican or democrat. It's not rich or poor. It's not obedient good citizen against criminals.

The divide is hope. Justice. Freedom.

a reply to: JinMI

what? you think you got me because I promote Justice & Freedom?

...alright

No, I got you because of your deference to one "side" vs another.

Where you are lauding the establishment and condoning the establishment.

Where you are for justice and freedom and against justice and freedom.

In short, a hypocrite.

a reply to: JinMI

no. just not picking any side and judging the other.
But like I said around here you people are firmly on one side so I don't really get a chance to tell the FBI agents what they did wrong in that whole sad story.
Or BLM or whoever

a reply to: Peeple

no. just not picking any side and judging the other.

You literally are, in this thread vs the thread you made that I linked.

/shrug

Not my problem if you won't acknowledge it. It's here in black and white.

a reply to: JinMI

yeah, no it is mostly in your head.

I can repeat my position one last time and I am out:
If you attack the state to overthrow its institutions you can't really be so dumb that you are surprised if the same State & Institutions see you as their enemy.

bye

Pretty cut and dry.

So far he has made $20 million off his mug shot, it's all about fame and fortune for him, while those that were loyal to him sit in jail or are scrambling for quick trials to have their names and reputations salvaged, if that is even possible. Without him lifting a finger to aid them in any way. Sad to watch.
