It's just funny that they want to focus on the 1 R in the story, who did provide contemporary evidence, and want to pretend the other women don't exist.
Also, irony has nothing to do with it, she learned exactly what it looks like when a woman appears who was clearly lying.
Platner’s GOP operative ex wants us to believe her, but also demands we view Christine Blasey Ford as a politically motivated liar trying to destroy Kavanaugh’s reputation.
Lol
Very ironic that she worked for a group that directly helped get Kavanaugh confirmed.
Brett Kavanaugh knows what he did.
If he's the man of honesty and integrity his friends and fellow car-poolers say he is, he'll tell the public what happened.
2 years ago he worked at one of the 'hospitals' used as a front by Hamas in Gaza. Funny how the same coincidence just seems to follow him around his whole life.
This is Todd “Let’s Roll” Beamer, who died heroically while trying to retake United Flight 93 from Al Qaeda terrorists on 9/11. His final resting place, is in Cranbury, NJ — where he was living with his wife and children before his murder. Cranbury is located in NJ-12, where the new Democratic nominee for Congress is Adam Hamawy.
Hamawy was a close associate and translator to Omar Abdel-Rahman, aka the ‘Blind Sheikh,’ an arch terrorist convicted of masterminding multiple plots against targets in NYC — including the World Trade Center. Hamawy testified at Adbel-Rahman’s trial, as a defense witness.
It has also been reported that Hamawy traveled to Bosnia to volunteer at an organization that was later unmasked as an Al Qaeda front group.
One of Hamawy’s loudest and most high-profile supporters and endorsers has openly declared that America deserved the 9/11 attacks.
Hamawy is now the prohibitive frontrunner to represent Todd Beamer’s district in the United States Congress.
This week, my wife and I made the very difficult decision to terminate the pregnancy due to Trisomy 21.
The choice was not made lightly. We really appreciate all of the personal stories that you guys shared with us, especially the unconditional support we received from fans with no matter what we decided.
I know some of you may be very disappointed to hear this news. We are devastated. This has been extremely traumatic for both of us, especially Ashley.
She underwent the procedure earlier this week and is on the mend. Thankfully, everything went smoothly, but emotionally we are drained.
Trisomy 21, also known as Down Syndrome, is caused by an extra chromosome. It is caused by an error in cell division, like a glitch. The odds of a baby having it is 1 in 1000.
When I first confronted this news, I was shocked but optimistic. If they’re a little slow intellectually, then we’ll make it work. I signed on to be a parent, come what may…but I just didn’t fully understand what Down Syndrome entailed.
Once we made it public, it became clear that MOST people don’t know what Down Syndrome entails (and no, it’s not the same as Autism):
50% of babies with DS have heart defects. 75% will have hearing challenges. Over 50% will have vision problems. Impaired immune function, developmental disabilities, learning disabilities, delayed physical development, poor muscle tone, structural issues with face, decreased lifespan, etc…Sadly, the list is long, feel free to look it up…Down Syndome isn’t a “blessing”, it is objectively shitty from a health perspective.
I didn’t realize just how rough it is for the child, let alone the family…more often than not, they would be fully dependent on others for the rest of their life.
The miscarriage risk is also close to 50%, which made matters worse…they may never see the light of day and it puts Ashley further at risk.
We spoke with doctors, friends, family and genetic counselors and learned that up to 90% of women terminate their pregnancy after learning the baby has Trisomy 21.
This was WAY higher than I expected, I thought it would be lower given that I hear so many say they kept or would keep the baby. I believe that’s because most terminations happen privately, it feels shameful. A lot of judgment being cast.
You never think you’d be in this type of situation until it happens to you and then things change.
To all of my fans who have weighed in on this topic who have Autism, Down Syndrome or any other conditions…we appreciate you. You matter a lot and we’re glad you’re here. I commend you and your families for having the strength and courage to push forward.
As for us, we made a difficult decision that we believe in the long-run will be beneficial for our family. Thankfully, we had a choice.
It will take a little time to move on, but we are excited to try again in the future and hopefully have a better outcome.
Love you guys & thank you for understanding. ❤️
Every one of these recent slopified, sanndpaper-less IP desecrations has been both a creative and ratings failure. It sucks *this version* won't be moving forward, it at least had the possibility of some fans enjoying it.
Amazon cancelled the new Stargate show.
The rumor is that the show writer, Martin Gero, would not budge on compromising lore or elements within the show for a "wider modern audience" as they did with Rings of Power for LoTR lore.
Martin Gero wanted to create a show that maintained continuity in the story and lore of the old shows, including the mythology and tech, while respecting the 17 seasons of history.
Amazon instead wanted something new for the "modern audience" that's more accessible, reimagined, with more modern casual sensibilities.
Because the showrunners wanted to maintain integrity rather than turn Stargate into another "modern audience slop" like Rings of Power, Amazon leadership canceled it. The franchise heavyweight, like Joseph Mallozzi, was very excited for the fresh stories Gero worked on. Amazon says they are still open to Stargate, just not "this" version... yes they wanted to Rings of Powerify Stargate.
We really can't hate these people enough.
Today is 37 years since the Tiananmen Massacre
On this day in 1989, the Chinese Communist Party ordered the People's Liberation Army to open fire on its own citizens.
Peaceful pro-democracy students and workers who gathered in Beijing's Tiananmen Square demanding freedom, anti-corruption, and basic human rights were crushed under tanks and gunfire.
The protests began in mid-April 1989, triggered by the death of reformist leader Hu Yaobang. On May 13, students began a hunger strike. Martial law was declared on May 20, but protesters remained peaceful.
In the early hours of June 4, troops advanced with tanks and live ammunition. Soldiers fired on unarmed civilians blocking their path in the streets surrounding the square.
Hundreds to thousands were killed. Thousands more were imprisoned, tortured, or disappeared.
To this day, the Chinese government censors all mention of it, erases it from history books, and threatens anyone who remembers.
The counties with the hanging chads were run by Democrats but anyway Florida changes its entire election counting system based on this embarrassment. Why doesn’t California?
For 37 years, over 2,000 images taken by a Chinese state media photographer were hidden in a metal box, surviving brutal purges—until now.
These raw, powerful photos show the courage of the students, the scale of the protests, and the horror of what the Chinese Communist Party did.
Now, The @EpochTimes is making the photos public for the first time. [1/2]
The photos, the source said, reveal the awakening back then of people from all segments of society, including many deeply embedded in the Communist Party system: https://t.co/avOImr4rEw
They are a testament that “Chinese people have guts,” the individual said. “They are different from the Chinese Communist Party, and they know right from wrong.”
And no matter how the CCP tries to “exert power and hide the truth,” the person said, there’s a limit to what coercion can achieve.
“It can make threats and inflict pain on people and their loved ones, but people have a soul, and that it can never kill,” the source said.
The present “darkness” is temporary, and at the end of it, there will be light, the source said.
@StateDept, yesterday: On June 4, the world marks 37 years since the Chinese Communist Party ordered its troops to attack thousands of peaceful demonstrators in and around Tiananmen Square. Chinese students, workers, and other civilians who lost their lives had gathered to exercise their natural rights and demand democratic reforms and accountability for corruption. We remember their lives and honor their legacy. No amount of censorship can erase the past. Those who sacrificed to uphold their unalienable rights of free expression and peaceful assembly will be vindicated someday.

According to the White House's own narrative, he's being tremendously ill served by his idiot negotiators – because they're not smart enough to realize Iran's ruling class doesn't believe in negotiating in good faith with infidels – and his idiot Turkish ambassador.
Here is what someone should tell the President, because it bears on his own political survival.
A well-armed tyranny ruling an unarmed population is remarkably durable under economic pain. The Iranian regime can starve its people and shoot the ones who object. It has done so for decades. It will absorb two-hundred-dollar oil and call it resistance.
A republic founded not on theocratic rule, but on rule of the people, by the people, and for the people is different. It answers to voters — and these voters elected a President on a promise to crush the inflation Joe Biden left behind. Instead, they have watched costs climb under tariffs, trade wars, and now an actual war that has sent energy prices soaring with no end in sight. The mullahs can outlast their economic misery. The coalition that put this President in office cannot. Mr. Trump is betting the American voter has the patience of a captive Iranian. That is a bet he will lose.
The honorable path is also the sound one: finish what we started, or get out of the way of the ally willing to. Reopen Hormuz by force if Iran will not do it by agreement. Stop calling a war a ceasefire and stop dignifying a rout as diplomacy.
Otherwise, the verdict will be brief and brutal. We had Iran beaten. We talked ourselves out of the win. And we let a regime that shoots its own citizens lecture us on what a ceasefire means — while we nodded along, shooting, as the President put it, “in a more moderate manner.”

37 years ago today, the Chinese government brutally crushed peaceful protesters in and around Tiananmen Square who were demanding an end to corruption, freedom of speech, and democratic reform. The massacre revealed a truth the world should never forget: the Chinese Communist Party will do whatever it takes to preserve its grip on power. If it did not value the lives of its own citizens, why would it value the lives of others?
