This is why they are so terrified of losing control over the narrative and why suing Elon to get him to take ownership was such a major own-goal. Now they'll be fighting against the exact same forces that they said were good six months ago. It's going to be HILARIOUS!
Edit: I just can't help it...every time I see Karine Jean-Pierre speak, I gain a little grudging respect for Jen Psaki and the way she was able to make the lies look good. It's sort of like going from Obama to Biden.
To me, this is her peak gaslighting -- Democrats tried opened schools (but only succeeded in places like North Dakota and Kansas) while Republicans tried to keep them closed (but only succeeded in places like NY, LA, and Chicago).
I recall just before the 2020 election a barrage of pro-Biden hysterics at Way of the Bern on reddit howling about how we all need to vote blue because Trump plans to reopen the economy and that will kill us all! Two days after the election...Biden is planning to reopen the economy and he's a great leader because of it. Oh, but not because its Biden, oh no,its because "the science has changed" and its just a coinky-dink it happened the moment they figured Trump was out. Kind of like how the contents of a sealed vial can transform from rank poison to miracle elixir of life based entirely on whose ass is sitting in the Oval Office at the moment! Science!™. Just Follow It!™
I well remember the video montage of Biden, Harris, Cuomo, etc. all saying there is no way they would take a vaccine that was developed when Trump was in office. Then Biden mandated the very same vaccine or you would lose your job. Amazing how fast things changed. $cience!
She was certainly adroit. I didn't think she was especially good at it, some of her whoppers seemed bigger than anyone could swallow. But there once again, I overestimate the intelligence of the general public.
Psaki was a true professional liar and a master wordsmith. She brought the art of lying to an entirely different level. KJP doesn't hold a candle to Psaki.
Their only m.o. is to gaslight because their policies are indefensible. Problem for them is that no one is buying what they are selling anymore and they don't have any other plan to win over the public which is why they are currently melting down.
It’s just more Jerry Springer for the Jerry Springers… people with unresolved anger issues. Their hatred for the opposition empowers them and then somehow makes them feel virtuous.
Okay, black Orphan Annie. I get it, but it’s like anything else these days, in retrospect, Little Rascals was wrong in a zillion ways.. but actually even though the child actors were poorly compensated, they portrayed a neighborhood gang of black and white kids who all got along. And the word stereotype had not been coined yet. And Buckwheat’s baby sister never had anything to say…so….that’s why I hesitated but meant no harm. From my husband’s 77 year old point of view, KJPs word salads infuriate him.
"Government is a gang, but not merely as meritorious as a private gang because it claims legal legitimacy. It pillages and uses violence but under the cover of law, and seeks legitimacy not through competition but through the myth of the social contract."
- Jeffrey Tucker
They expanded this into the public square and now we're taking it back.
They can't deal and are not prepared for how we will exert our will....because like mobsters they never expected the shopkeepers to fight back.
'A captured pirate gave a quick and cutting response to Alexander the Great. The king asked him, "What is your idea, infesting the sea?" The pirate answered with uninhibited insolence: "The same as yours, infesting the earth! But because I do it with a small ship, I'm called a pirate. Because you do it with a navy, you're called an emperor!"'
St. Augustine REALLY said that? He is one of my absolute favorite saints -- he has deepened my family’s conversion in profound ways. I’ve read Confessions, still need to read City of God.
Reading a book! What a concept! Love it. Been reading like a fiend since COVID. Trying to dilute the narrative. When you think about how much work and effort it takes to write a book…… compared to *writing* a tweet, tik tok, insta etc. …… do kids read anymore? Do adults write anything but pulp anymore? Mentor when you get the chance. The kids are the future..
Our family has always read books. We read to our kids every night, even into high school. I enjoy a movie, sure, but there’s nothing like a great book (fiction or non-fiction) to whisk you away from where you happen to be.
At least mobsters have an incentive to keep the shopkeepers in business. Elected politicians have an incentive to loot the shopkeepers as quickly and thoroughly as possible, setting fire to the shops on the way out.
If only we lived under mobsters instead of politicians!
Excellent quote. And yes, fight...this is a War on so many levels. My one hesitation is the general public - many are either disinterested, dumb af, or just want to live comfortably amid the lies. Are there enough of us?
Yes; gangs are at least potentially liable to criminal penalties. If Russia's government drops a few nuclear bombs in Ukraine, no one will be arrested for the resulting deaths.
I can't wait for tonight's campaign commercial. Clearly, the half of the country that doesn't agree with 'ol Joe is flat-out evil. Thankfully, the uniter-in-chief will set the record straight, on the public dime, and within a week of the regime's judgement day. "OUR democracy is in peril!" Yeah, I've seen your democracy, and we're about to stick it up your ass, Joe.
The popcorn is the important part. UPDATE: Holy Sh*t!! Did you see the close-up photo of Biden's hand?? I cannot post but see if you can find photo from tonight's speech. Big ol' holes, two of them, in the veins. Several MDs are saying these are from being IV'd. What exactly are they injecting him with??
Cannabis tea beer, really? How interesting. Would like to see the THC/CBD content. Professional interest. I imagine it will taste vile, but so do monster drinks and that doesn't seem to stop people from drinking millions of them.
Been watching the Titanic that was the California cannabis industry go down for the past couple of years. Going Fed (as I have been warning people about forever) is going to put that baby under. That'll be all she wrote.
Well you could tune in to "The Cosby Show" repeat, or "Bee Movie" with Mathew Broaderick and Jerry Seinfeld, a MASH repeat, or even "Three's Company" (3-13-79) "Roger plans to sell the apartment house as an anniversary surprise for Helen."
If he could just get hold of the set for Pink Floyd's The Wall he'd be ready, complete with hammers to reference Paul Pelosi. Who will figure prominently in his speech, no doubt.
Lol. I saw a diagram of likely US targets for bombing; NY, LA, DC, etc.... Found myself thinking that it would solve a LOT of problems for the rest of us ..
Kurt Schlichter, of Town Hall (or Red State?) Has written a series of books describing just this scenario; the Kelly Turnbull series. Highly entertaining and funny books!
I believe that, with few exceptions, as we age we become more of who we really are and have always been. No amount of dementia can hide the fact that Biden has been and continues to be a career liar.
What’s wrong with the original tweet? Biden Administration is responsible and taking due credit for out of control inflation which in turn resulted in the large social security bump. Like an arsonist reluctant to take credit for the warmth from their destructive fires. Thanks Joe. Don’t be so modest.
Through President Biden's leadership, inflation is so bad that Seniors are getting the biggest COLA increase in their Social Security checks in ten years.
*What was wrong with the Tweet was that it was misleading - suggesting to the gullible that this "free money" is a good thing. I was just shocked at a $7.99 price on three small heads of romaine lettuce. It also shows that the Democrats really think people are stupid and only focused on government handouts.
This is why they are so terrified of losing control over the narrative and why suing Elon to get him to take ownership was such a major own-goal. Now they'll be fighting against the exact same forces that they said were good six months ago. It's going to be HILARIOUS!

Every time I watch her I lose brain cells. And my BP goes up. Neither is good.
that is why I stay away from anything coming out of these people's mouths.
Stop listening and watching.
We really do not need to know because they are monsters
Karine Jean-Pierre's gaslighting would make even Goebbels blush.

To me, this is her peak gaslighting -- Democrats tried opened schools (but only succeeded in places like North Dakota and Kansas) while Republicans tried to keep them closed (but only succeeded in places like NY, LA, and Chicago).
They don't give a fuck. If you're a "Nazi" anything is justified.
And if you don't like it, guess what you are?
RACIST DOMESTIC TERRORIST ELECTION DENIER.

Good one 👍 Commander!
Thanks! I was doing real well, until I read your comment...:)
Bastards
She sure sounds like Kamala Harris!
🤣
yes, exactly! In a perverse way, I loved Peppermint Patty. I marveled at her ability to lie so well and so nimbly.
She was certainly adroit. I didn't think she was especially good at it, some of her whoppers seemed bigger than anyone could swallow. But there once again, I overestimate the intelligence of the general public.
That's exactly what I thought at the time.
But the bar has been lowered.
And she didn’t look like she was on the verge of tears every minute!!
yes KJP is sensitive a muppet
Jen Psaki definitely has greater skill at lying than diversity hire does. Poor diversity hire stumbles and trips over her tongue.
Best nickname ever!
I don't know, all I can think about with Psaki is the kickboxing and margaritas thing.
Haha I had forgotten about that!
Psaki was a true professional liar and a master wordsmith. She brought the art of lying to an entirely different level. KJP doesn't hold a candle to Psaki.
"You've been hit by—
You've been hit by—
A smooth criminal
Ow!"
Hahahahaha
Their only m.o. is to gaslight because their policies are indefensible. Problem for them is that no one is buying what they are selling anymore and they don't have any other plan to win over the public which is why they are currently melting down.
It’s just more Jerry Springer for the Jerry Springers… people with unresolved anger issues. Their hatred for the opposition empowers them and then somehow makes them feel virtuous.
My husband’s nickname for KJP is as politically incorrect as one can get... but hysterical.
Oh do tell!
It’s a reference to Little Rascals if you are old enough…. Buckwheat’s little sister.
The hairdo is certainly en pointe.
Wincing a little at that, I prefer Little Orphan Annie.
Okay, black Orphan Annie. I get it, but it’s like anything else these days, in retrospect, Little Rascals was wrong in a zillion ways.. but actually even though the child actors were poorly compensated, they portrayed a neighborhood gang of black and white kids who all got along.

From my husband’s 77 year old point of view, KJPs word salads infuriate him.
Hmmm I’m not familiar with that, though I’ve heard of it. I’ll ask my husband haha!
She didn't make them look good, she's just a good nerd bully. Karine is just out of her depth and not a fighter.
Excellent comparison!
They sued Elon to punish him for even considering buying Twitter.
Same re: Seeing Karine vs. Psaki.
Rap battle required. Psaski vs Jean Pierre.
Hahahahaha I would pay to watch that!
Right?
🤣

Exactly.
I think the state has achieved a lot of this through capricious law - not iron law.
Same as tyranny imo.
St. Augustine REALLY said that? He is one of my absolute favorite saints -- he has deepened my family’s conversion in profound ways. I’ve read Confessions, still need to read City of God.
He did indeed, in *City of God*.
Epic tome, but worth every minute.
I have it by my bedside just waiting for me to finish the book I’m reading currently. Now I’m REALLY excited about reading it!
Reading a book! What a concept! Love it. Been reading like a fiend since COVID. Trying to dilute the narrative.

Brilliance and funny at the same time!
Hilarious
Excellent quote. And yes, fight...this is a War on so many levels. My one hesitation is the general public - many are either disinterested, dumb af, or just want to live comfortably amid the lies. Are there enough of us?
YES!
It doesn't even take a plurality. Perhaps only a small minority is needed?
The fighter's are here. We need the platforms, resolve and to be unabashed with getting the message out.
That's why it's so important for all of us to learn here on the Stacks'
We're it. I'd rather it be that way, than rely on someone else to exert their will on our behalf - because they're not coming.
We need to bring them to us.
Exactly. The next in this line is almost ready :)
https://simulationcommander.substack.com/p/this-is-not-a-drill-part-2
got it
problems linking. maybe it's just me
There are enough of us, for sure. The problem (as I see it, anyway) is that we’re very loosely linked -- disorganized.
Hear! Hear!
Well put
Yes; gangs are at least potentially liable to criminal penalties. If Russia's government drops a few nuclear bombs in Ukraine, no one will be arrested for the resulting deaths.
Russia won’t.
Putin is a Christian. Like most Russians. And unlike the ruling class that misgoverns us here in the U.S.
Good point.
And they expect us to pay for that bs!

Fuck, I gotta sit through another one of those?
Better get to drinkin'.
Edit: https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/02/politics/biden-speech-democracy-dc/index.html
It looks like it's going to be Philadelphia 2.0, stating that political opponents are enemies of democracy.
Edit Edit: My satire piece. The booze didn't help. https://simulationcommander.substack.com/p/bidens-philadelphia-20-speech
I can't wait to see what the art department / lighting troll has in store for this one, perhaps a short shadow on the upper lip?
I think they should quit fucking around and go all in. Let's see a lake of fire and some flames lapping at the podium.
YES!! In 3D!!
Oh jeez ! Even better!😝🤪
That's a good one! Lol!
Weed is better. Laughter comes far easier :-)
The popcorn is the important part. UPDATE: Holy Sh*t!! Did you see the close-up photo of Biden's hand?? I cannot post but see if you can find photo from tonight's speech. Big ol' holes, two of them, in the veins. Several MDs are saying these are from being IV'd. What exactly are they injecting him with??
Meth?
Well, if it's adrenochrome, it's not working. Maybe that's why he sniffs at little kid's heads? Like you sniff a cantaloupe?
Sheesh. The thoughts these people are giving me.
I know I know! It happens to me too!
LOL!
maybe the nov surprise coming out tonight is weed is needed to stomach 'our democracy'!
boston beer co (sam adams) has a 'cannabis tea' ready to market as soon as biden frees all the weed dispensaries....
i prefer bud, who may be going down the same rabbit hole.
OMG.
Weed have some goooooood times Ed! Lol.
Cannabis tea beer, really? How interesting. Would like to see the THC/CBD content. Professional interest. I imagine it will taste vile, but so do monster drinks and that doesn't seem to stop people from drinking millions of them.

Cue the Sulphur...
If he could just get hold of the set for Pink Floyd's The Wall he'd be ready, complete with hammers to reference Paul Pelosi. Who will figure prominently in his speech, no doubt.
Yep. He's going to repeat (probably over and over) that DePape was driven by right-wing rhetoric and will probably even call him a MAGA Republican.
Because misinformation is the most dangerous thing to democracy.........
🤣 that cnn “article”... took 4 people to shit out that masterpiece
biden gonna wear out his teleprompter....
Don’t do it! Go Astros! Catch the memes and dissections on the bounce…
Hahaha 😜 how can we agree on the first and not the second?? Ah! * democracy* ! go Phillies!!
When is this farce of a speech supposed to take place? I imagine ol Joe is hooked up to the meth IV drop right about now in prep….
7 pm Eastern. You know I'll be there with my nearly-live satire piece that will be published as soon as he's done speaking. (Here's the one from Philadelphia, it sounds like it will be the same speech basically: https://simulationcommander.substack.com/p/man-without-soul-preaches-about-soul

Nice pronouns mr. galt :)
My next trick: shutting down the railroads in a few weeks.
I hope for some backlit red columns, and gun-wielding soldiers in the background.
Can we all just agree to split the country in two and move on? I think EVERYONE would be happier... Well, I would anyway.
Yes, please.
Biden “won” something like 475 counties in 2020 while Trump won 2,500.
We don’t need to split the country in two, we need to get rid of the big cities. Hoping Russia will help with that.
City States, under the control of the feds but not the state they're in, but they also don't get to affect any of the rest of the state.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City-state
Lol. I saw a diagram of likely US targets for bombing; NY, LA, DC, etc.... Found myself thinking that it would solve a LOT of problems for the rest of us ..
So you're thinking of something like "the United Counties of America"? That's sort of a interesting idea!
There’s even a website and free ebook by Tom Woods:
https://nationaldivorce.com
Kurt Schlichter, of Town Hall (or Red State?) Has written a series of books describing just this scenario; the Kelly Turnbull series. Highly entertaining and funny books!
Thanks! I should look those up!
For now, I continue to follow the Convention of States and TEXIT (even though I don't live there - but I COULD)!
I have your context right here:
"You're a lyin', dog-faced pony soldier."
And you sure as hell ain't black.
Don't miss the point. Biden was taking credit for the high inflation rate that caused the increase in SS payments!
But how many people understand that?? In reality, it’s not a good thing! He makes it sound like he’s giving us an effing bonus!!
Kayleigh Mcenany was an assassin. I would pay to see her and Karine Jean-Pierre battle in the Octagon. My money's not on Jean-Pierre.
I believe that, with few exceptions, as we age we become more of who we really are and have always been. No amount of dementia can hide the fact that Biden has been and continues to be a career liar.
Kindly allow me to translate the WH press secretary.
“MAGA REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!”
Thank you for your time.
What’s wrong with the original tweet? Biden Administration is responsible and taking due credit for out of control inflation which in turn resulted in the large social security bump. Like an arsonist reluctant to take credit for the warmth from their destructive fires. Thanks Joe. Don’t be so modest.
Yes, a rephrase:
Through President Biden's leadership, inflation is so bad that Seniors are getting the biggest COLA increase in their Social Security checks in ten years.
*What was wrong with the Tweet was that it was misleading - suggesting to the gullible that this "free money" is a good thing.

“Stealing” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"There is nothing as pitiful as a politician who is deficient in relaying untruths."
That almost sounds like Twain.
You beat me to it!!!
Haha, sadly too true.
Sounds like Mark Twain ???
Comrade Brandon is a pathological liar and has been his entire adult life.
Is it any wonder that his nest of jacobins follow his lead?
His is perhaps the dumbest and disingenuous junta that I can remember, and I can remember people singing for Nixon in grade school...
We been needing a good belly laugh after the time these bastards gave us...
No, the tweet was most assuredly not complete. And if the tweet don't fit, you must eat shit, suckas!
LOL!!!!
I too have reservations about any fact checking by platforms. But, seriously, I'm enjoying the lulz! 😆 🤣
calling out liars, what a refreshing change, now can we hammer on the atlantic, ny times, cnn etc?
“Hammer” - I like it
