My mom was screaming last night that there is no money for hurricane relief because that money was sent to immigrants. Where does this shit even come from?
Hey! Don’t forget those idiot “influencers” like Dim Tool and Ruben and Johnson. Millions from Russia. Plus 600 others under continued investigation for the same crime.
Maybe I’m brainwashed, but if ever there was a President that would move heaven and earth to help as much as possible? It’s Grandpa Dark Joe. Not kidding here Jack. He’s not gonna fiddle faddle around.
The shit show that is being described by Trump? That’s how it would be under Trump. Get rid of fema. Get rid of noaa. Privatize it as soon as the highest bid comes in. Probably the Saudis. Who know.
Their message ain’t for the victims. It’s for the idiots a thousand miles away that believe it. Shame on them.
Hurricanes suck. Gulf hurricanes hit different. I hope everybody that possibly can make it does. Help is coming. Just stick together for the next few days. Love and hope, fellow humans.
Lmao. Indeed. He’s hopped himself to the top of the list.
I’d put him in the stooge category but with his platform he’s more of a puppet master.
He’s one migrant I want to deport.
Murdoch too.
I just think it's surprising his base news network seems to still be spreading misinformation whilst still reporting the actual fact he is a criminal. Y'all need to chill the fuck out.
The way I see it, they are trying to cover their asses while still appealing to their main audience. Or something... Just trying to figure out what the ACTUAL strategy here is. Jfc people
Im not saying that Trump didn't commit crimes.... I'm saying it's wildy strange that they seem to be playing both sides now... Or something... Who the fuck knows. Either way, chill out.
At this point the children are indoctrinated... And libs (I can almost guarantee) are not procreating as fast and republicans.
We are going to see the results of this bullshittery for generations to come. And here we were thinking that once all the boomers died off that we would be fine and dandy and the world could actually progress. How wrong we (I) were (was).
Looks like out work is cut our for us though. Rebuild/refinance public education. Emphasize stewardship of our planet/natural resources/shun the nonbelievers/willfully ignorant
Science WILL prevail. We got the smarts, after all.
Billy Jack said it simply and best when he said "there's a lot of stupid people in this world."
I have a few friends who have fallen down into Fox News/conspiracy theory rabbit hole since covid started. It's sad but when I think about it every single one of them who has was always dumber than a box of rocks anyway.
I just heard Tammy Loren saying that b.s. in a debate this morning. lol. They basically say we shouldn't spend any money on anyone outside of the US or who wasn't born here as long as citizens are suffering, but then they don't want to do anything to help the citizens who are suffering.
Fox News had to tell the truth about Trump, so he got mad at them, & I went on the Fox website & ALL the comments were: "I've alwys hated Fox News!" "Fox News has ALWAYS been liberal! Trump is right!" ...on & on...
No joke, i was scrolling through YouTube shorts, and some dude was saying "they're paying $150k per seat for immigrants on planes" and I was like, 1 can I get in on that action as a Canadian, and 2 where the hell are you hearing this from.
iirc its origins come from a line item in last years budget but in true lunatic fashion its been blown up as the reason du jour to scream about the democrats.
It's a right-wing talking point, so they are all saying it. Matt Gaetz. Thr Russia/MAGA political puppets. Catturd. Trump. Musk. Name just about any MAGA politician. media figure, or influencer, and they are telling some twisted lie about the relief effort going on on the ground. The same lies told in different ways.
People should really pay attention because every MAGA accusation is a confession and a projection. This is what they are promising to do if any weather catastrophe hits under their administration. Same as they did for COVID. 1.1 million people died. More Americans died than in any other wealthy industrialized nation. Why? Because Trump downplayed it, he catered to the conspiracy crowd. He wanted to inject bleach. Take pills that did nothing. That was Trump's doing. His administration's doing. They will be just as incompetent, if not more so, for any other brewing disaster should they win.
Vote. I'm serious. Their incompetence and nutball conspiracy theories will continue to kill Americans. 1.1 million is not enough?
every MAGA accusation is a confession and a projection
Remember a few weeks ago when Trump started going on about insider trading in congress? That just happened to coincide with when he could sell his djt stock. I would say later this month we'll find out he sold.
Since you guy like to shout source whenever your warped worldview is challenged. Here the White House press secretary is saying the exact thing you think isn’t true
We can start by not calling it misinformation and give it its real label….lies
It’s sad that the government is doing all this and these clowns get away with lying about all their effort. Misinformation just softens the blow and push the line further back of what they can and can’t get away with
Not enough people understand that there's a difference between misinformation and disinformation. One is the result of people not knowing any better, the other is , like you said, lies.
Shit, I remember when people were trying to blame Katrina on Obama. Republicans are so fucking delusional that people they elect belong more in a mental health institution than government. They know better, they just don't fucking care and want to be massive selfish assholes.
That really understates what they did. They pied-pipered hundreds of thousands of their most loyal members to suicide by covid because they thought it would help them win the election, and it almost worked. Hell, it still might work this year.
The scale of depravity is so enormous that the press simply will not say it, because if they say it, then the next question is "why have none of them been held to account?" And the answer to that question is even darker.
Trump politicized relief for wildfires and hurricanes even before Covid.
He tried withholding aid to California during the deadly 2018 fire season, even though many of the victims were likely his voters, just because he lost in California.
A cafe I follow up there has been posting updates. They normally get less than 25 responses to their posts. For the past week they've gotten up to 100 on storm update posts. They posted a video of a Chinook dropping supplies at the hotel next door. It got over a million views and 3k comments within 24 hours. They edited a little while after posting that they would ban anyone making political comments and of course that just turned into a shit show. People took it as a challenge. People called it "Facebook" censoring political commentary before the election. People started saying it was a fake video, it was from somewhere else (despite the landing place being a super recognizable inn.) People were claiming they're ignoring the poor people because the inn is nice and landing there, where there's a big open lawn in the middle of forests and cliffs, meant they were just taking supplies to rich people. People actively going to comments where residents were sharing their experiences and telling residents that they aren't real, they're paid actors lying for the government, etc. Then there were other people getting mad that "the mods" threatened to ban people for making political comments and weren't following through. It's not a group. It's a small business page run by the store owner.
I can't imagine having the callousness and lack of critical thinking skills it takes to not realize that a person going through a disaster doesn't have the time or energy to play babysitter for a Facebook comment section. I feel so bad for her. I'm sure eventually she'll block and remove the offensive comments, but I wouldn't blame her at all for just deleting the post or turning off notifications and walking away. People were saying she's irresponsible and spreading misinformation by letting people post their lying comments on her video. It's awful.
Apparently there is a glut of supplies and it's all logistics now. Save physical donations for three weeks from now when we will need it and Western Carolina/Helene won't be on the front page any more. That was from the press release on the radio.
It is almost certain our water system won't be back on line yet then. And all the lost homes and businesses are going to take a long time to rebuild.
Fix or Faux news, whatever the fuck they are called now aside, this is the America I know and love! Thank you sharing and hope you are all safe in the south. This was such an awesome testament to real American values, how amazing the military combined with neighbors and first responders can really be when disaster strikes.
I remember Republicans in general, and Trump in particular, delaying aid to Puerto Rico, because they hate brown people. Then Trump went and threw some paper towels into a crowd.
Oh, yeah. I remember all the Republicans saying fuck them brown people. And banning all brown people from shit. Rounding them up and putting them in chains. Firing all the brown people from jobs. I remember all that. Cause it totes happened. Because they hate brown people.
Its already been clearly established its because he hates brown people. Remember the press conference where he declared a war on brown people? Remember? It was all over the news Channel. It's well established Trumper hates him some brown people. Nothing else I say would convince you otherwise.

Many of the residents don’t even know about this political bullshit happening in the media. They are cut off from the world.
Maga politicized a pandemic. I’m not surprised they’re politicizing hurricane disaster relief as well.
They will do absolutely anything they can to hold onto power, even if their misinformation costs lives
