Kirk Gallaway

Great post, W.! Paul: I agree with Roger about RFK Jr.’s unwillingness to speak out about the Israeli response to Hamas attack. Unwillingness to speak out? I haven't seen such a full throated defense of Israel's prosecution in it's War in Gaza from any politician, as I have from RK.

?? But the Gallagher Bros. feuded with reach other! Is that a hopeful projection from Jim? Sports clue of the day If he wasn't making 100 million, he'd be in jail!

Let's recap! Jim, unlike you, we aren't eager to grovel for JFKAC endorsements. We are much more selective than you, so we merely vetted your endorsement. What don't you understand? We've given you hard evidence that your wonder boy's staff was trying to deliver an illegitimate, fake slate of electors to Pence on 1/6. He doesn't deny it! What's "not accurate" about that? As usual the headlines are wasted on Jim. Some of us would call such a person a"traitor" Jim. Do you understand now? But all I get from you about anythings that's currently relevant is a lot of fence sitting so as not to turn off anybody. Because after all we'll accept any jerk off endorsement we can, right Jim? I assume this comes from living in a conspiracy bubble, so there's no curiosity about current events or anything else going on in the world? And It's ended up like it always does. You make a lot of irresponsible statements or endorsements, we end up calling you on them. You never engage directly on points, you punt every time. When confronted with facts, You always end up screaming foul like you're some victim. But more importantly, you're above listening, so you never learn. It looks like you could learn from reading what W. wrote in his thread. Jim:They have been after Ben on political grounds because of his defense of RFK Jr. And this is a continuation of that political attack! That's just kind of weenie statement I've come to expect. This has absolutely nothing to do with RK and everything to do with Ron Johnson. We're not obsessed with RK, like you. Jim:Then the Gallagher Brothers had to start in with their political agenda about the political parties. I mean geez give us all a break. IMO, they should not have been allowed to do this. Is this Jim asking Sandy to find him 11,720 votes! heh heh ( I think Trump even said "Give me a Break") This from Mr. Free Speech follower of Assange and Snowden? You sound like a typical autocrat. And Jim said this directly after Ben hijacked this thread to Israel. ( which Cliff was merely responding to) Yet in Jim's mind, we hijacked the thread by simply exposing Ron Johnson. That's the kind of personal judgement we're dealing with. He could convince himself of anything, and has many times.. *Incidentally, what's this Gallagher thing? What are our names? Should I squeal to Sandy, or are we supposed to make up a name for you? heh heh

Get off it Ben! Do you ever take responsibility? If, as usual you come with bad sources you haven't researched. Don't be surprised if we attack them! It's that simple! Then you hijack your own thread and make it into pro Israeli thread. You can't even keep a train of thought, and we're supposed to indulge you? This is relevant. Your stand on the Israeli War isn't. Your star witness is part of the fake election scam! That's relevant!---We're impeaching your witness! To inject some humor, the funniest thing is when he's confronted by reporters about his staff trying to deliver an illegitimate, fake slate of electors to Pence on 1/6.. He acts like he's preoccupied talking over his cell phone,(1:48) when a reporter tells him his cell phone screen is out in view to the reporter. Thus, Johnson is faking talking to the wrong side of the phone!

Jim:To me, what makes this interesting is that he read those two books. And your source for that, Jim is who? Ron Johnson?. I give that about as much chance of happening as Trump reading any more that Stephen Miller's.bookmarked passages from Mein kampf. heh heh These guys are illiterate! His aides may have read it to exploit political talking points. Jim:Then the Gallagher Brothers had to start in with their political agenda about the political parties.I mean geez give us all a break. IMO, they should not have been allowed to do this. Sandy, I can see why you would remove this thread, but don''t fall into being be historically spoonfed by Jim that this thread was disrupted by the Gallagher Bros. To be clear the reason this thread became contaminated was Ben getting up on his soapbox in support of Israel. ( though at first i couldn't understand what he was getting at!) That topic was completely unrelated! But if you're not going to let this thread be about the credibility of Johnson. What do we have to look forward to? A post like Jim's recent post here on top? Which is only a carbon copy off his earlier post. That's called repetitive and boring! And as I said I even question if Johnson really read it. Michael:, There was so much political debate because some left-wingers here just can't seem to resist using any excuse to take shots at Republicans/conservatives, to use any thread as a springboard for voicing their political views. Michael, go to the original post and tell me anything i wrote about the nature of 2 major parties polarizing that you dispute or don't understand. I was establishing Johnson's political motive and establishing his " government is the problem"playbook to try to dismantle the safety net. Then I show you a meme of Johnson's past statement that the feeble little man is responsible for "ruining his own Social Security" so we're going to have to cut it.. How much more substantive an argument do you need?.

pos Justice Clarence Thomas threatened to resign as SCOTUS Justice back in 2000, because $173K annual pay (equivalent now to 300K a year)was just too little. Then a bunch of wealthy backers decide to make it easier on poor widdow Clarence! I'm sure his ruling in Bush vs. Gore in Dec. 2000 probably gave Clarence a newfound sense of importance! https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/20/us/politics/clarence-thomas-supreme-court-salary.html?campaign_id=9&emc=edit_nn_20231221&instance_id=110685&nl=the-morning&regi_id=61798350&segment_id=153139&te=1&user_id=48552702f942aacb0810b9de5ca41c55 ******* Let's get this show on road! Jack Smith said that it is of the "utmost gravity" to get these court cases done as quickly as possible, and makes his appeal to SCOTUS. Why should we hold our entire election process hostage to endless delays? ******* Yes, great movie Doug! i would never remember it if I didn't see the phrase "Gorsuch case". I then remembered the meeting when they declared Richard Crenna's will intestate!

A complete contradiction with Gorsuch's previous rulings! Very cool! The phrase "the Gorsuch case" rang a bell with me. Did any of you guys see the great film "Body Heat" in the 80's? I loved it! But the case that tarnished lawyer Ned Racine (William Hurt's) past was called the Gorsuch Case.

Yeah, but theoretically a State's judiciary could rule that Joe and Hunter Biden are guilty of high crimes, and remove Biden from the ballot and if the Supreme Court chooses to not take the case, it's state law! I'm no expert on State Judiciaries, but I'd guess there are probably 15 states where I wouldn't trust their judgment at all! I'm getting the legalese behind this now. Because the current Conservative Supreme Court has been citing "originalism" as a pretext for their previous decisions, the 14th amendment ruling is apparently as originalist an interpretation as it gets and so would reveal their overturning of the Colorado decision as being completely hypocritical. So it might be embarrassing and inconsistent but ultimately so what? It was also embarrassing and inconsistent in 2001 when a Conservative Supreme Court that was upholding State's Rights in many of their decisions turned against the ruling of the Florida Supreme Court. But they will and have no embarrassment about it. They will do it and not flinch and it will demonstrate just how politically partisan the court is. Federally Trump is presumed innocent until proven guilty. That's the legal standard that would effect the Republican and Independent voter preferences that I was talking about earlier. Over time Matt, you've expressed more faith in the legal system than I have. But where we agree is that Trump would be convicted of a number of these crimes, but the question is, will Trump as President completely disband the Justice Department investigation before they can convict him?! The one big exception that he can't effect will be the Georgia ruling. As I was saying, given the smoking gun tape, I was first counting on this being further along in 3 years than it has gotten. *** I thought I might mention this regarding a recent thread on the JFKA side that was, as so often started with Ben. In this example , it was Ben and Jim. I understand there are many people on the forum, who don't want to weigh into politics, but I'm always amazed how ill prepared some people are there to discuss any kind of current events. Even when it's them who first bring up the topic!----JMO

This is a 4-3 decision. Are you saying that any group within a state could then start a lawsuit and be assured by law to remove Trump from the ballot? . So any podunk state could issue some false claim by their judiciary to eliminate Joe Biden from the ballot? Well you know there's no question the Supreme Court would get actively involved to stop that.

Yes. Matt. I am taking that in consideration . But still if the most populous states California, New York, Illinois kicks Trump off the ballot, Trump could lose by 20 million votes and still win the electoral college! That's how completely screwed up our system is! We're all just held hostage to these smaller "battleground states."

Wow, we're facing so many deadlines! Here's my take right now in 2024. Obviously the Colorado ruling won't effect an election result because we have the electoral college system. Among 2/3 of the Republicans who think that Trump is facing politically motivated trumped up charges, this is another rallying cry for Trump's base in the primaries, particularly if it's overturned, which would seem likely. But the Dems made their biggest inroads with Independents in 2022. There is the stated possibility in polls of a sea change with both Independents and the Republican party as to Trump's viability if he is convicted of a crime, with a third of Republicans saying that would be critical in voting for Trump for President, but of course right now, the alternatives they are considering are Nikki Haley and Ron Di Santis, and not voting Democratic.. But obviously time is running out and there is a possibility we may not get a Trump conviction in 2024! Even the current March 4th date,could still be postponed. This is the day before Super Tuesday, March 5th, when 14 states have their primary, and when by that time, more than half (26 states) of the states primaries have already happened! But there is Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York still outstanding. I'm profoundly disappointed in Georgia where now 3 years ago, there is that incriminating tape of Trump asking Ratzenberger to find him 11, 720 votes! So there are 2 possibilities of a major sea change if !) Biden or Trump were to have a health incident,which is deemed more likely with Biden in voter's minds and 2) Trump get convicted. But what's even more critical is the timing of any of these possible events. If Biden was to have a health issue after June 2024, likely Kamala Harris would be the Democrat nominee. If Biden was to drop out or have a health issue in the next 3 months, there will be a lot of scrambling between Democratic candidates. And right now, there appears to be no clear front runner. If Trump was to possibly get a conviction before the Republican convention in July. Would that make a difference? At a certain point, it would be too late and the Republicans would go with Trump anyway, and use as their campaign strategy that Trump was unfairly prosecuted by the "Deep state". It's just starting to get late in the game!

What is this something about King Vajinalonghorn? When the rubber meets the road, you'll also see that kind of blind allegiance of kings going on in the U.S. And it's not just some guy crying about censorship on twitter! I know Tucker you got your hopes up, unfortunately nobody looked at the front page and said, "the CIA did it and it's been fake ever since!". But bottom line is , you'll eventually come down and realize you were just being used- and you will want your benefits!

Ben: Remarkably, a large part of the left-wing, which used to be skeptical of government, has become authoritarian and censorious. Yeah, go to a Trump rally, or any modern day meeting of Republicans and tell me what kind of free speech exists there, except to praise their almighty leader. You've never seen anything like that in the U.S. A. in your life! Don't just blindly believe Taibbi trying to make headlines after Musk dumped him! "Free speech Ben", who lives under a monarchy! It's not pissing wars. It will actually effect your life, more then the opening of any files. Mark my words Ben, you'll be back , declaring your birthright, and claiming your benefits! The expectation game here was pushed way out of shape when Tucker told you that the files contained the smoking gun and the CIA did it. I couldn't believe how gullible this forum became! You're just a pawn in their game. You don't realize you're being used, just like Larry Schnapf , whose made great efforts , with great intentions thought he might be able to piggy back with Jim Comer!

Kudos to W's state Colorado!' Colorado Supreme Court removing Trump from the 2024 ballot https://www.cnbc.com/2023/12/19/trump-ballot-challenge-decided-by-colorado-supreme-court.html

Jim: Nice one Cory! Yes Jim, but there's a much greater picture going on that involves a 40 year trend to marginalize the middle class you're apparently not aware of.. Right Cliff! The 2 major parties in the U.S. have polarized. The Republicans are out to dismantle the government, and the Social safety net, like the Social Security , Medicare with the primary goal to lower taxes to the wealthy to either 1950's level of government or in some cases prior to the 1930's. The Democrats are trying to show that government can be effective in redressing the nation's problems. If the Democrats got a sizable majority like 60%, there would be at least a single payer health care system, Social Security would be boosted by lifting the Social security tax cap for the wealthy. More funding of education and trade schools. Weren't you once a teacher Jim? MYTH: at a time when people have been saying the 2 parties are the same, while understandably railing about the donor class and corporate control, the fact is, policy wise there's never been a greater difference between the 2 parties. With a 60% majority, the corporate Democrats if faced with a solid majority would fold. The JFKA where a rogue faction within the government is allegedly responsible for the assassination of a President works perfectly to a "T' for the Republicans asking "why would you pay taxes to a government that killed it's President"? It fits right into their playbook, and it's BS!

Yes, Boot is a neocon. But it's a sure bet he didn't say Lansdale was behind the JFKA. These are conclusions drawn by Morrow. I don't know a lot about Lansdale, but I have never heard the story about Lansdale's leaving his wife for a Phillipino girl whose now fingered the back photo in Dealey Plaza as him. But go for it!, and Good Luck!

Hmm..... an academic crusade now! My God. Lighten up! It's +mas! Ok, If it makes you happy Dubs. I'm into God and Santa! In that order! And in the +mas spirit and because I love harmony. And though I'm a Norcal guy! "With a half dozen deer, with Rudy to lead!" "He's gotta wear his goggles, cause the snow really flies" "and he's cruising every pad, with a little surprise!" Sounds like Mike Love lyrics that he sued Brian Wilson for! heh heh

Dragging on the Vietnam War and the overthrow of Allende would probably be enough to call Kissinger a war criminal. Then there's East Timor!* Yes to hear the Cambodians tell it, somehow Kissinger's bombing Cambodia unmercifully into the Stone age, brought about just the opposite reaction they wanted and hastened the takeover of the Khmer Rouge,(Rouge meaning Red",)** . Now how could that be? https://share.icloud.com/photos/091b5_hiaeYDnu1n8s2LTgPuA Attn: full pictures and short films in Icloud can be show by opening the second lower thumbnail image. I don't know why they do it that way! Re: Cambodia, Michael was right in that the mass purging by the the Khmer Rouge in the later half of the 70's was Communist inspired. I've been to some of the killing fields. These are now historic sights in Cambodia. This short shows a well where dissenters were thrown to their death. I have another short where I show a pit with lots of human bones. https://share.icloud.com/photos/023m1t9ngE6oH8DJ7WDE938Lw https://share.icloud.com/photos/0e3Nq1IARJMq4WVh8yS0VlUXQ Legacy of the Khmer Rouge regime https://share.icloud.com/photos/098SR_EIo_BFx__1dZGByPljw **** I read a more recent 2022 article from Kissinger after the Putin invasion of Ukraine. He urges Peace and proposes a Peace plan by which Russia gives up all their claim to Crimea and all the occupied territories that they've gained as result of the War in exchange for Ukraine agreeing to never join Nato. I don't believe he even mentioned that Ukraine give up any future admittance to the EU either! I was dumbstruck! Now why in the world would Putin ever agree to that? I assumed that came about from being 99 years old and being completely out of touch! ****** Yes "Scoop Jackson" Big Kennedy supporter. He was JFK's first choice as a VP in 1960, but decided to go for the Southern strategy with LBJ! Sorry! **previously Cambodia was historically known to itself as the "Khmer Republic" *East Timor---https://thediplomat.com/2023/12/henry-kissinger-and-the-murder-of-timor-leste/

There are 2 different things, creating a song and recording a song. A lot of songs created in the 60's 70's and 80's periods that at least I know well were drug induced, and you often can tell which songs were and weren't. It's generally a mistake to fuse your drug induced song into a drug induced recording session, but at least during those years , it was done all the time, under the idea that the ends and the means had to be the same. Hopefully the artists learned over time, and many of them did. . But recording is generally a more sober, exacting event. But there are some artists who will insist they have to get a few belts under them to sing without inhibition or smoke some pot to improvise a good lead. Some magic can occur, under either circumstance. You're quite an inclusive swooner, Joe! Bill Hicks was a national treasure and of course, it did involve more than just his views about the JFKA. This was a really good film, a story about his life.

Wow!, Was there ever any doubt that RK was anti vax despite his lame denials? RK is nailed with past statements, even declaring himself as a crusader who thought it was his duty to tell any mother with a newborn child he might happen to meet to not get the child vaxed!

You see, you have to look at the bigger picture!

Boy, talk about completely slumming it! 153 countries voting for a ceasefire. Look at the only other countries who are supporting us! Guatemala , Paraguay, Micronesia, Papua New Guinea. So we're allowing the civilized world to vote on the same side of some scumbag nations! The only west European country against ceasefire is Austria! Is that overcompensating for the Holocaust? Isn't this what we use to say about the caliber of the countries in the U.N. who would always vote with the Soviets, no matter what, in the Cold War? Ok, maybe I'm too old!

This is it, my friends! To other nations, it must look like America selling it's soul. ....yet again! Donald Trump hawks swatches of his mugshot suit in $99 NFT pitch Land of the free! For only $99 dollars!
