US politics, spreading the gospel of rugby union

One of the worst developments across the internet in around the last 4 years has been this general flattening of any two things that aren't remotely similar to being the same in order to propose 'hypocrisy'.

'Smol bean' politics is also up there for worst development.

Seems like leftists opposed to killing terrorists in the Middle East support killing CEOs in Midtown Manhattan.

Sick.

This means @matthewkassel at Jewish Insider published the unverified claims of a GOP operative as an “anonymous source” without disclosing the conflict. Real solid operation you boys are running over there

@JebFain How'd Harris do in the swing states?

@ECaliberSeven That's one way to look at it or the other is that Republicans are genuinely worried about the general election and realized working in tandem with liberals to knock him out in the primary is their best chance of keeping Collins in the Senate.

I'm very much enjoying being told that it's important to believe women, specifically in regards to the woman we are being asked to believe, who worked as a political operative to message that the women shouldn't be believed who we were asking to be believed about Kavanaugh.

@aseitzwald There's nothing burgers

And then there's publishing garbage like this for what I can only assume is about hitting a metric.

@carolannleif @Samburnsda12831 No one gives a shit if you dont like Bibi. He's been a member of Israeli govt for almost as half as long as Israel has existed. There is no "oh it's just Bibi is the bad guy" when he's gotten elected over and over for 40 years.

@JJ_McCullough You might not know this is a Canadian but Senators weren't always voted for and were appointed to the position by each states legislature until 1913(17th amendment)and this essentially created a gilded network of influence like the House of Lords, which is kinda...bad?

@AshleySchapitl That's funny, how do you feel about this?

@LakesFirearmsTr @KyleKulinski @EmmaVigeland the greatest irony of this whole exchange is that the ex girlfriend of Platner cited by the NY Times in the article was one of the Republican operatives messaging that Kavanaugh accusers were lying

[You Are What You Read @BottomStructure]

@brianros1 i see you've posted about the crimes and barbarity committed by ICE.

Platner is the only candidate in Maine who has said that ICE needs to be disbanded and prosecuted.

Are you willing to enable ICE further over uncorroborated claims from a career right wing operative?

[You Are What You Read @BottomStructure]

@SeanDaBlack the entire lead up to the release of this article, as it was being 'leaked' and 'hyped' by liberals and Republicans who 'had sources' was that it was going to be a bombshell article about sexual assault.

something that is not mentioned once in the article.

@ChuckRossDC gotta make you so mad that Ryan is actually doing journalism while you print out whatever gets passed down to you

The last two polls here are crystal clear - the majority of MI Dems want a normie Dem

The polls are clear, El-Sayed puts the state at risk in November.

Genuinely hope the normie lane can come together and unite

Trust me, I lived the math of not doing this in 2018 in Florida

[You Are What You Read @BottomStructure]

@politicalmath are you denying that the claims/accusations are uncorroborated after six months of investigation?

[You Are What You Read @BottomStructure]

@magi_jay Magdi I think you should stop projecting your own failed marriage onto national politics.

@ryangrim well how recent is recent? It's only been 5 weeks since April!
