do you want ants a dictator?  because that's how you get ants a dictator.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is why our founding fathers set this up as a representative democracy.

It's called opposition research, and everyone does it. Hillary's team met with the russians peddling the Trump-Stripper-Pee story. How is this any different?

The problem is that Opposition Research does not allow foreign governments to provide that information.  Especially as support on behalf of said government.

The lawyer in question is not a foreign government agent.



Well somebody thought she was a foreign government agent.

That's... actually kind of interesting.  Thanks for posting that.  Here's another interesting trend:



That's over 5 years.  It's been mostly flat up until the middle of 2015 then it slowly started rising.

We don't know much of anything yet.

It was a 66 year old white guy.  He apparently was heavy into anti republican groups online.  And that's about it.

It's probably too much to ask but I hope they don't exploit this for political reasons. 

ie

"Well maybe they'll take gun control seriously now"

or

"See! Republicans are being persecuted!  Liberals are evil!"

On tyranny, Timothy Snyder.

A little disappointing to be honest. Its much shorter than it should be. It can't decide whether it wants to be a scathing take down of Trump or a thorough exploration of fascism.

Think i'll either look for something on fascism that I can really sink my teeth into or just take a break from this and get back to work on les miserables.

I see Intikam will be a guest here for the next week or so.

Aww, what did he do this time? Or was it just the incessant JD/SCG stuff?

Specifically persisting in posting threads with curse words in the title.  Which I guess is against the rules, even in AR.

The butt hurt from his vacation about a month has apparently been building.  I don't know how he came to the conclusion that everyone is an alt of John Davis let alone SCG being his wife.  It's lead to some very confusing attacks against random people. 

Anyways, have fun.

I was about to respond by stating that this deal was probably already in works before Trump was even elected but I looked into it and found out that that's not the case.

http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/foreign-policy/334339-why-is-trump-rewarding-saudi-war-crimes-with-more-weapons

So, yeah, hope we have kill switches on these weapons.  They're probably going to be used against us or our allies sometime in the future.

I don't have an article handy but I think it was something about a terrorist plot involving turning a laptop into an bomb.

I think the issue with sharing this Intel is that it endangers the source.

I get that, I do. I just like knowing what's going on.

I'd like to make an opinion if the leaks were that bad or just being played up by the media. There isn't enough information available for me to know what's going on.

Also as you guys know I refuse to believe the news just cause it's the news. I like sources.

Still glued to the couch but I will add that Trump isn't challenging the story. What he contends is that what he did was lawful. That's technically true but only in the same sense that it's lawful to drive a car you own into a river.

It looks embarrassing for Trump but to me the stories where he seems to be obstructing justice are more important.

Trump seems to have made a serious tactical error in firing Comey, especially the way he did it.  Comey's the guy with the dirt on everyone.  And I get the impression that he's planted a dead man's switch with all of these stories on Trump. 

This has probably been the most disturbing week since he's taken office.  I'm worried about the long term consequences if congress does nothing.  On the positive side I am laughing my ass off at the Republican's attempts to defend him.  My favorite so far has been McConnell's reaction to Trump giving highly classified information to the Russians.  A mob of reporters started asking him questions.  He just turned stone faced and walked straight out the door without saying a word.  Not even a "he's a different kind of president".  Hilarious.

Does anybody want to help develop technology to help open the eyes of the masses

I do not want to post anymore details as to what the technology because I do not seem to be taken seriously, as if it is ok to theorize flat earth limitations but not surpass them...

Would anybody like to develop technology that helps show our crater of life to people who think we are on a globe in space surrounded by nothing...

There already is technology to show truth to the masses.  You're holding it right now.

Well as he is now immortal he will have plenty of time to catch up, I just hope he doesn’t suggest the all-night beatings on his first date. As for respect, foisting his kinkiness on people before they have received even a bunch of flowers? For the life of me, what type of “principles” does he have?

Parsing the words of Intikam? Inadvisable, that way lies madness.

I like the cut of you jib Ms. Glenlivet.  Mosey on over to the other side if you'd like a change of pace.  I'll put in a good word for you.

Even if sometime I feel to throw a hood over your head and want to beat you for hours from night to the morning, this topic has no relevancy with you.

Who's a naughty boy then?

You're going to have to excuse Intikam.  He's kind of a virgin so he acts oddly around women.

Whoa there!  That's a whole lot of information.  Why don't you explain to us what happened and then we can tell you what we think?

This post is deleted  and I get banned  of it. So I'm sharing this post here. I'll share it at there when I'll return back. Or maybe I don't return that ISIS supported place if can be happy here. I don't ask for your ideas. They deleted my post that unmasked an ISIS supporter and I opened it in here. Because you can't stop releaving the truth!

While I don't necessarily think it is gore, some of those images are in violation of rule 7. You can post links to them with warnings that they may not be safe for viewing in public, but don't embed them into your post.

Intikams rant here is a little misleading. These images are not what he posted to the other site. The pictures he posted there were significantly more brutal.

I'm posting gore. So; What's happened relevant with ISI?



A news: EU respects results of Turkish referendum, High Rep. Mogherini says

http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/eu-respects-results-of-turkish-referendum-high-rep-mogherini-says.aspx?pageID=238&nID=112553

She respect to result of the referendum.

Take a closer look to the new constitution provisions :

You should to read this article for understand what's happening in Turkey.

Quote
The recent constitutional referendum in Turkey does not seem important enough for most Americans to notice, but it will be big for the future of Europe and the Middle East. The referendum, which passed at approximately 51 to 48 percent, redraws much of the power in Turkey’s government. The reason it is important is that whether Turkey helps the rest of the west defeat ISIS and becomes a good, upstanding country is very much dependent on Turkey’s president, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.

In general, the constitutional referendum redefines Turkey’s government from a parliamentary system with a weak president (as compared to the United States system) to a presidential system with an executive with (presumably) more power than the president of the United States.

Specifically, the Turkish constitutional change will remove the office of Turkey’s prime minister and grant executive powers to its president. It creates new offices of vice presidents and transfers control over the cabinet to the president. Most of these changes are moving the country closer to a United States-like structure.

The concern from the opposition to the referendum is that some of the changes reduce the checks and balances previously set forth against Turkey’s president. In particular, the change to allow the president to be the head of a party (which decides who will run for specific governmental positions), in combination with Turkey’s simultaneous elections, could mean that the president can now hypothetically control who from his or her party is elected, thus making the president a de-facto authority over the parliament. Think of it this way: With the president in control of the parliament, he or she could limit additions to the government to include only the individuals who comply with his or her own agenda.

Fortunately, there is an added provision for judicial review of presidential actions. How much this judicial review will do, however, is presently unclear; after all, another change to the constitution gives the president the power to appoint Turkey’s judiciary. Regardless of whether one deems the concerns in the preceding paragraph as legitimate, the current fears Turkmen have over President Erdoğan’s corrupt government are objectively very real.

President Erdoğan is from the Turkish Justice and Development Party, which is more religiously-oriented (Islamist) than other parties. Turkey established itself as a secular state under its modern constitution, which even temporarily gave the military the power to enforce that secularism.

In the immediate response to the 2016 failed military coup d’état (when various parts of the Turkish military began defying orders and attempting to seize key Turkish cities in a failed attempt to overthrow the government and President Erdoğan), some people believed that the Turkish military was, by the coup, trying to further assert its secularism.

The exact reason for the coup d’état is still disputed; President Erdoğan’s official stance remains that the coup was started by the Gulenists, a movement named after Fethullah Gulen, a former imam and former ally of President Erdoğan. Gulen was living in the United States in Pennsylvania at the time of the coup, and he vehemently denounced it.

There even exist accusations that President Erdoğan organized the coup himself in order to gain more power, as immediately after the attempt, Erdoğan called a state of emergency. Importantly, in a Turkish state of emergency, the president inherits the authority to make arrests. Over the course of the several months since the coup and declared the state of emergency, tens of thousands of Turkmen have been arrested (most, but not all, were affiliated with the military or were politicians who were either involved or believed to be involved in the coup attempt). Furthermore, Amnesty International claimed that the government of Turkey was torturing prisoners and denying them adequate access to food and water.

In addition to all of the people arrested as a result of the coup, The Guardian reports that the Turkish government shut down three news outlets, 16 TV stations, 23 radio stations, 45 newspapers, 15 magazines, and 29 publishers. Taking drastic action against the press is concerning in an apparently democratic society where the freedom of the press is established, and the preceding statistics suggest that President Erdoğan intends to silence as much of the press as he can. This year was not the only time that President Erdoğan has arrested journalists, as American media have boomed with countless reports of media contributors’ arrests in Turkey.

Overall, Turkey has a higher number of journalists in prison than any other country: The Committee to Protect Journalists put Turkey’s number of journalists currently in prison for attempting to expose corruption at 81. The country with the next-highest number, with 38 journalists currently imprisoned for their careers, is China, which is typically seen as the most restrictive country against media efforts. In other words, during Turkey’s state of emergency, President Erdoğan has imprisoned nearly twice as many journalists as the country that is most associated with doing so. Ultimately, the Turkish coup d’état attempt of 2016 and the subsequent Turkish constitutional referendum draw questions about President Erdoğan’s goals. If Erdoğan sticks to maintaining moderate secularism for his country, he could be very valuable to the West, as he is currently fighting against ISIS. However, if the public’s fears that Erdoğan intends to move his country closer to a theocratic state are true, he could end up becoming another problem for the West.

As we see that, this referendum convert Turkey to a middle age country. This is absolutely what is Suggested system by ISIS.

This system is clearly and completely demolishing democracy. In fact we rejected it. But the authority forced it with electoral tricks as %51 vs %49. This is a despotism. In this case, those who seize the majority in the country can constantly make constitutional amendments. This situation will cause chaos in the country, and it will cause Turkey to become Syria. In other words, In Turkey, structures such as ISIS will emerge and people will lose their heads. Another way of doing this is to immigrate tens of millions of Turks to Europe. Which will cause chaos in Europe.

Mogherini's talking about respect means, respect to ISIS, respect to kaos in Turkey, it means that millions of people die and their heads are cut off, respecting tens of millions, perhaps 50 million Turks asylum to Europe. Europe is now dangerously distant and does not know what it is. We feel that close in turkey. The streets are full of people hungry, mostly unemployed. They started to mafia. They are annoying  and disturbing women in beaches. They are begging in subway and the streets. They are occupied our beaches.





Soon turkey will be like syria. And europe, will be in place of Turkey.

Respect the results of the referendum means to respect of welcome tens of millions of refugees.

Also she respect as follows:


Is there anything here that might come to meanin of gore? No. Clearly "theflatearthsociety" (other forum" is supporting to ISIS, by supporting to Mogherini who an ISIS supporter.)

Whoa there!  That's a whole lot of information.  Why don't you explain to us what happened and then we can tell you what we think?

I feel like you guys must constantly be really bored to continue engaging TTIOH as much as you are.


Don't know about everyone else but I'm just too stupid to stop.

Would you guys rather be engaged or are you trying to setup one of those, what's it called again, safe spaces?

By all means keep fighting the good fight.  Trump supporters are fast becoming an endangered species.
