Fox news does the funniest thing during market crash

 


This is DESPERATE.  Fox works by SPINNING the bad news. That they can't even find a plausible spin on this one gives you a sense of how BAD-BAD-BAD it's going to be.

In three months we went from a world power to the laughingstock of the allied nations (which we were formerly a part of). Now we're considered an adversary with a failing economy and destroyed trade relations. We're so despised China and Japan, which have had an adversarial relationship for centuries, just made a trade alliance against us.

It's also interesting seeing what every major US and reputable world news website is showing on a given day like yesterday and today... and then checking Fox News website.

Zero mention of the stock market there today. Only mention of M13 evil gang members, something about Obama, and left-leaning liberal in some city did something. And lord have mercy on you if you venture into reading the comments section.

It's surreal. They literally refuse to report the actual news if it's *anything* that makes Trump or the Republicans look even remotely not great.


We all know it’s Bidens fault, so let’s blame him again for the current mess. Fox are imbeciles, but they got their audience in a tight grip, the audience that believe in the blame game, and pointing at everyone else, but truth is, if you think everyone are idiots, it’s probably you who’s the idiot. Trump has blown up the whole economy, made all allies to never trust Americans again. 

Fox is legit almost beyond RT in terms of state propaganda. This country will not begin to heal as long as it still stands. We are vastly not acknowledging the extent of responsibility Fox News and its employees have on getting us into the mess we are in now.

We are no better than the trump administration when it comes to shirking personal responsibility. Fox News, Google, Meta, Tesla employees: you are complicit, you can quit. I know that fat salary is sweet but now you know why you got it. Don’t fool yourself

The answer is pretty self-evident, no?

 White House explains why new tariffs do not apply to Russia, North Korea

The White House clarified why new tariffs were not imposed on certain countries, including Russia and North Korea

A White House official, speaking to The New York Times on condition of anonymity, explained that Cuba, Belarus, North Korea, and Russia were not impacted by Trump's tariffs because "they are already facing extremely high tariffs." He added that existing sanctions prevent any full-scale trade with these countries.

Yes. USA and Russia has about 3bn in trade and USA just put sanctions on every country on the planet, except Russia... and Canada and Mexico, i think but that is also a no-brainer. The only part of this that very problematic, in this context, is the omission of Russia from that list. Makes NO sense, unless..

If I’m a prostitute, I don’t piss off my pimp.

He tarriffed Antartica where there are no people but didn't tarriff NK & Russia.  Got it, thanks.

There's no fucking way.. i need to look this up

Oh fuck 

"U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent urged these countries not to take immediate retaliatory measures, warning that such actions could lead to further escalation."

Classic bully behavior, "Don't do anything or I'll hit you again!"

I understand that trump is just doing what he's told and would, quite literally, send every one of his children (except favorite fleshlight, ivanka) to El Salvador if putin told him to. The rest of these stooges seem to really believe they're winning.

This is 100x worse than Hillary Clinton

"Heads should roll": Congress erupts over stunning Trump admin leak

Why it matters: Some Democrats are already calling for an investigation and potential repercussions against the national security officials involved in the lapse.

"This is an outrageous national security breach and heads should roll," Rep. Chris Deluzio (D-Pa.), a member of the Armed Services Committee, said in a statement to Axios.

He added: "We need a full investigation and hearing into this on the House Armed Services Committee, ASAP."

"We can't chalk this up to a simple mistake — people should be fired for this," said Rep. Sara Jacobs (D-Calif.), another Armed Services Committee member.

Between the lines: People identifying as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, national security adviser Michael Waltz and Vice President Vance were among the 18 people in the Signal chat, per The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg.

The reporter from The Atlantic did a better job figuring out what information should be allowed for public consumption than the people in the intelligence and military leadership.

If Republicans wanted to jail Hillary Clinton for using the wrong email server, what should the punishment for this be?

When these statements are coming from Republicans, then we know something might have changed. But the comment from an R in that article was: "I've accidentally sent the wrong person a text. We all have."

This is not a "Whoopsie". They bypassed numerous protocols. 

How many hearings did they have over Hillary’s emails?

This is 100x worse. They not only leaked the war plans. We have actual confirmation that they are using Signal to conduct these plans.

Not only is that a massive security risk, the fact that the messages delete violates the record laws.

Like, let me be clear, this is worse than Hillary Clinton's email server, because Clinton didn't have anything that was classified at such a high level on her server EXCEPTING in cases where it was classified at higher clearance AFTER the fact. Stuff you'd get out of FOIA.


The use of Signal here shows that they are almost certainly using it for just about EVERYTHING, with the EXPRESS PURPOSE of avoiding ANY FOIA requests.


They aren't "keeping" records, they're planning, executing, and refusing to record anything in direct violation of federal law, SPECIFICALLY for the EXPRESS PURPOSE of avoiding those records coming back on them because they're committing crimes.


They HANG people for this, and I'm not joking: this is willing and knowing negligence, purposeful avoidance of federal records laws. They've breached basically every PART of the espionage act.

United States Secretary of Defense uses commerical communication for secret war plans

Pete Hegseth Sent Secret War Plans to Journalist by Accident 

Trump administration officials accidentally included a high-profile journalist in a group chat in which they discussed sensitive U.S. military plans for strikes against Yemen earlier this month.

In a piece for The Atlantic published online Monday, Jeffrey Goldberg, the magazine's editor-in-chief, wrote that he had been invited to the group chat with top members of the White House national security team, seemingly by accident, and added that he'd "never seen a breach quite like this."

war thunder forums are rejoicing it wasnt them this time.

Plus didn't a guy get sentenced for 15 years in prison recently for leaking classified documents in a Discord chatroom to some of his friends?

Googled it:

"Former Massachusetts Air National Guard member Jack Teixeira was sentenced Tuesday (November 12, 2024) to 15 years for stealing classified information from the Defense Department and sharing it online, the U.S. attorney for Massachusetts announced."

Bet no one responsible for today's leaks won't face any consequences. 

For a specific list, this was VERY classified info (not merely "stamped classified," but info about an active impending military action) and they:

  • Sent it through a unauthorized, not-allowed, non-secure commercial platform
  • With hardware you're not supposed to use for it
  • Almost certainly from locations where they aren't allowed to have the discussion- you can't even bring a cell phone into the secure room (SCIF)
  • Accidentally copied someone who was ABSOLUTELY not supposed to have access to the info
  • Set it up for illegal destruction of records

They were supposed to:

  • Use the correct hardware
  • From the correct secure location (SCIF)
  • With the correct secure software
  • NOT SEND INFO TO SOMEONE WHO ISN'T ALLOWED TO ACCESS IT
  • Archive information securely for the secure records

Its always those who you suspects part 2

 



Texas megachurch founder Robert Morris indicted on charges of lewd acts with a child

Robert Morris, 63, who founded Gateway Church in Southlake, is charged with five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child, the attorney general’s office said in a statement.

Not a drag queen. how interesting, almost like it's a bunch of projection. 

Pretty on-brand for both Trump & Megachurches.

 GOP Senator Solicited Sex From Minor the Same Day He Introduced 'Trump Derangement' Bill: Police

A Minnesota Senator has been arrested after being accused of soliciting a minor for prostitution the same day he sponsored a bill that would recognize "Trump derangement syndrome" as a legitimate mental illness.

While Eichorn is yet to be formally charged, felony charges pertaining to the solicitation of a minor to engage in prostitution are actively being processed. The 40-year-old Senator is married with children.

It's always the ones you suspect the most.

Conservatives and pedos, name a more iconic duo.

The SAME FUCKING DAY?

This story is just too perfect. It has absolutely everything.

Not a drag queen or trans.

Seems like this only keeps REPEATEDLY happening to one side, and it's not the people they keep claiming are the ones grooming and exposing themselves to children.

Another example of the religious right being pedophiles but trying to blame the left

No one ever makes a billion dollars

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: 'No One Ever Makes a Billion Dollars. You Take a Billion Dollars.'

"You made that money off of the backs of undocumented people, you made that money off of the backs of black and brown people being paid under a living wage, you made that money off of the backs of single mothers," Ocasio-Cortez continued. "No one ever makes a billion dollars. You take a billion dollars."

That's one of the best quotes I've ever heard. "No one ever makes a billion dollars. You take a billion dollars"

Spending money is good for the economy ... every Billionaire will tell you that.


  • Every Billionaire will tell you
  • Every BILLIONAIRE will tell YOU that
  • Every Billionaire will tell YOU to spend YOUR money to help the economy.
  • Every notice they don't spend theirs?
  • Why does the Billionaire need YOU to not save your money?
  • So that the Billionaire can take it for himself.

Pragmatically speaking you cannot have this level of wealth inequality. Period. It is unsustainable. It will destroy civilized, modern society. You like stability? You like research and investment? You like modern infrastructure and utilities and reliable running water, electricity at the flick of a switch? 


You cannot have such an unequal society. Because right or wrong it will result in violence sooner or later. And if we can avoid that, if we can have a more stable, secure, peaceful society by redistributing the wealth from the unimaginably wealthy, then even if they "earned" it I really don't give a fuck. They can pay more to sustain the society in which they have greatly benefited living in.


And like Biden said, which Bernouts constantly misappropriated, "nothing would fundamentally change." You know what happens to someone with 100 billion dollars who gets taxed half of it? They still have 50 fucking billion dollars and are rich as fuck. They don't have to worry about money ever. Their kids don't. Their kids' kids don't. They can fly private everywhere. Eat anywhere. Buy anything. Have a mansion on every continent, hell most countries around the world. No one is suggesting even close to a 50% wealth tax but that's the point. These people are so rich you could take a full fucking half of it and they'd still be unimaginably filthy rich. So take that fucking money and redistribute it so we can continue to have a stable, functioning fucking civilization. Fucking please. You can keep your fucking yacht and fancy cars and enormous houses and maids and servants and generational wealth. Just not to the insane excess you have right now.
