Twitter is clamping down in accounts linked to Qanon.

First I have heard of these nut jobs. Is this sort of thing what passes for critical thinking in America now? No wonder Trump managed to get elected if a proportion of the public are this mental.

On a related note, I would suspect that some private security firms have been contracted by the government to crack heads in the name of statues. Something like Blackwater security founded by the brother of current Education secretary Betsy DeVos, for example...

How much resource has been spunked away in the effort to suppress legitimate civil rights concerns that could otherwise have been used to test and trace, provide a safety net for the needlessly unemployed, and coordinate a global effort to treat the pest?

This is a nightmare.

Given that many of the federal agents are unbadged, it's probable that PSCs are being used in some capacity. It will be interesting if State Governors use the National Guard to stop federal personnel from intervening.

It's the evolution of the tea party fruitcakes, and is even worse than you think. They are infiltrating political ranks. Social media in America has ensnared a big chunk of the population and converted them to irrational fuckwittery.

Owner of Shooter’s Bar in Rifle, Colorado. You couldn’t make it up.

Terrific work from Householder in Ohio, immediately calls come in from the WH seeking clarity on what's happened with regards to Trump's money

The GOP could really use some similar stories about the Dems right now, luckily the DoJ is a hugely biased entity that stands ready to do their bidding

And were you impressed with the GOP Senators putting up photos of Elijah Cummings as part of their paying respects to John Lewis?

Listening to a thing about DHS, CPB, the mysterious unidentified agents, covering their remit and just how far they have overstepped it. It really is fucked. It's amazing the actions that some graffiti can be used to justify.

Still not seen any official confirmation or denial about the incidents with people being picked up by men in vans refusing to identify themselves, but maybe I've missed it.

It was a troll conspiracy thing that started on the /pol/ board on 4chan (originally created by Chris Poole before he quit to go work for Google, as a containment zone for the racist shitcunts that were popping up on there. Keep in mind that it was renamed "tormfront" for a while) which blew the fuck up because some of the smooth brains on the Trump Train bought into it.

It's basically your boilerplate deep state conspiracy bullshit. No idea why they went with the letter "Q" but I doubt the poster who came up with it originally put that much thought into it.

If you're on social media or looking at comments and shit, look out for the letter Q or #WWG1WGA.

There is at least one video of 1 arrest without probable cause.

Watched the Epstein thing and then saw this

Man, that is some ugly bullshit. Policy for the criminally wealthy 1% and fuck everybody else.

Jesus.

It looks like a story about a man who knew too many secrets about the powerful: shielded till it was impossible, then disposed of.

The availability of guns in supermarkets should be an interesting twist in the upcoming american civil war

Don't fucking say that.


Here is a wonderful example of political priorities at the present:

Justice 4 Statues.


Unfuckingbelievable.

It's incredible isn't it? Manifest destiny and Americna exceptionalism perfected in a concept - "Slavery was a necessary evil because without it, there wouldn't have been the United States."

The wild thing is that it likely won't hinder his political career. Probably the opposite.

It has probably fucked him in terms of becoming president, but it will secure him the Republican nomination barring obliteration of Trumpists in 2020 and 2022.

I'm slightly surprised that the Dems haven't been messaging this as secret police. I mean there is a possibility they've run it through the focus groups and the american public rather likes the idea of secret police in which case the country is even more fucked than I thought it was.

Tell Zuckerberg to pull his receding alien forehead out of his arse and maybe the whole cartoon narrative that BLM is a thinly disguised radical left take over of white suburbia and all things American would die like coronavirus on a remote NZ island.

remote NZ island seems a tautology

Fuck you Digby, fuck you I say.


Social media is the bane of any effort to employ data driven methodology in the management of this pandemic, and someone has to curtail the use of such by this absolute train wreck of a "government". Americas stocks are getting lower and lower by the day. Equal parts dangerous and hilarious, depending upon if you live within or outside of this burning circus tent.

Fuck?

This is fucking embarrassing.

Given we tend to copy the USA it's somewhat alarming here too, we're not as far down a path of populism though, even allowing for the USA will get a chance to halt/reject populism before we do. I wasn't sure whether in typing this simply to say facism now rather than populism when it comes to Trump, it still seems a little OTT, but that such label is even partially suitable isn't a source of comfort

The Fat Golfer just tried to defend the claims of the witch doctor in the link I posted at a "coronavirus briefing":

A CNN reporter pressed Mr. Trump on his promotion of Immanuel's statements about hydroxychloqoruine.

"The woman you said is a great doctor in that video that you retweeted last night said that masks don't work and there is a cure for COVID-19, both of which health experts say is not true," the reporter said. "She's also made videos saying that doctors make medicine using DNA from aliens and that they're trying to create a vaccine to make you immune from becoming religious—"


Trumpet responds while furiously playing his air accordion, "Well maybe it's a sign, maybe it's not, but I can tell you this — she was on air, along with many other doctors," Mr. Trump responded. "They were big fans of hydroxychloroquine. And I thought she was very impressive in the sense that, from where she came, I don't know which country she comes from, but she said that she's had tremendous success with hundreds of different patients. And I thought her voice was an important voice. But I know nothing about her."

Pressed on the matter further, the president abruptly ended his news conference. This is right up there with injecting bleach, but hopefully will help shift the 63 million doses of hydroxychloroquine stockpiled a couple of weeks before the FDA declared it ineffectual and potentially life threatening for covid patients. I am beginning to understand the multiple bankruptcies now.
