<<"Stunning">> ?

What is stunning is the stupid question.

"Would you rather have 4 years of Trump as a dictator ... ?"

That question is loaded. If there was a dictator it would be for life, so why is the "4 years" inserted?

i.e. What is really being asked is "Do you want Biden or Trump as the next President for 4 years?" was the real question.

Naturally they gave their best answer on the spot.

And yes there seems to be something beyond really hokey with the last USA election as the research on the Google company has shown. Just the manipulations by Google never mind all the rest.



So including "A.I" and big tech, the whole concept of Common Law of the people, and the USA Republic are under severe threat. Most of the people rights have already been snatched away.



and your hero "President" Joe Biden boasts about being the originator of the Act.

The first draft of the civil rights-eroding USA PATRIOT Act was magically introduced one week after the 9/11 attacks. Legislators later admitted that they hadn’t even had time to read through the hundreds of pages of the history-shaping bill before passing it the next month, yet somehow its authors were able to gather all the necessary information and write the whole entire thing in a week.

This was because most of the work had already been done. CNET reported the following back in 2008:

“Months before the Oklahoma City bombing took place, [then-Senator Joe] Biden introduced another bill called the Omnibus Counterterrorism Act of 1995. It previewed the 2001 Patriot Act by allowing secret evidence to be used in prosecutions, expanding the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and wiretap laws, creating a new federal crime of ‘terrorism’ that could be invoked based on political beliefs, permitting the U.S. military to be used in civilian law enforcement, and allowing permanent detention of non-U.S. citizens without judicial review. The Center for National Security Studies said the bill would erode ‘constitutional and statutory due process protections’ and would ‘authorize the Justice Department to pick and choose crimes to investigate and prosecute based on political beliefs and associations.’

Biden’s bill was never put to a vote, but after 9/11 then-Attorney General John Ashcroft reportedly credited his bill with the foundations of the USA PATRIOT Act.

Yet the numpty brigade here quibble over the sound bytes designed by morons.

Well, no surprise in what is happening I guess.

It sounds about right from a nation that puts electric distribution cables up on poles for trees to fall though at the first sign of a gale. A nation with a lot of trees too.
