'Everybody has a heart. Except some people,' Trump thread 90.

From Bette Davis, who was too canny to name names.

Here is the old thread:

I'm hoping someone kept a copy of something because they were careless or wanted to sell it on further down the road, or even as an insurance policy.

As for FB:

Didn't Alexandria make it to the Oversight Commission?

She did.
I expect she and others will be like a hungry dog and their bone.

Cohen cancels House testimony due to 'ongoing threats' from Donald Trump

Michael Cohen has said he will not testify before Congress on 7 February due to “threats” from the president.

In a statement released on Wednesday Lanny Davis, Cohen’s attorney, said Cohen would be willing to appear before the House Oversight Committee in the future but would not appear as planned.

“Due to ongoing threats against his family from President Trump and Mr Giuliani, as recently as this weekend, as well as Mr Cohen’s continued cooperation with ongoing investigations, by advice of counsel, Mr Cohen’s appearance will be postponed to a later date,” Davis said.

“This is a time where Mr Cohen had to put his family and their safety first.”

Just in: House Oversight chair Elijah Cummings and House Intel chair Adam Schiff say Michael Cohen not testifying has never been an option. "We expect Mr. Cohen to appear before both Committees, and we remain engaged with his counsel about his upcoming appearances.”

Nancy says 'No'.

President Trump after being told that Nancy Pelosi rejected his state of the union address letter: "I'm not surprised. It's really a shame what's happening with the Democrats. They've become radicalized."

WE've been 'radicalized'? Bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha!!

We aren't the ones intimidating old men using Brown Shirt tactics (Cov Cath boys) and threatening witnesses (Cohen) using Gestapo tactics (Trump/Giuliani).

Oh dear, someone is doubling down on something that anyone who isn't down the radicalised IDPOL route can see was not catholic boys intimidating an old man.

I bet you have you skipped past the point of the black Israelite's spouting homphobic shite aswell.

Some on this thread might not be radicalised, but you certainly are.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealioning

Sealioning (also spelled sea-lioning and sea lioning) is a type of trolling or harassment which consists of pursuing people with persistent requests for evidence or repeated questions, while maintaining a pretense of civility. The troll pretends ignorance and feigns politeness, so that if the target is provoked into making an angry response, the troll can then act as the aggrieved party. Sealioning can be performed by a single troll or by multiple ones acting in concert. The technique of sealioning has been compared to the Gish gallop and metaphorically described as a denial-of-service attack targeted at human beings.

Polls.

Sorry.

Yes, Cohen can't get out of testifying. And I don't see how changing the date helps Cohen.

Putting it off forever might, but...

So I don't really understand that one.

Thanks, cozie.

I find the reports like that useful, as they give figures for all voters, not just all Republicans or all Dems. The latter are so vulnerable to changes in party membership.

Sorry, lurker, I haven't yet found the video which shows the single MAGAhat wearing yoof walking into a crowd of chanting, jeering native Americans.

I've seen several that make it clear that the Black Israelites and the Native Americans are not the same people, were not in the same place, and that the Native American said nothing whatever to the MAGA laddies.

What was said to anyone by a Black Israelite is not relevant to the behaviour of any other person, on the whole; they are irrelevant at the best of times, particularly so on this occasion. Unless of course some small-minded little person, unable to answer them, were to try to take out his pique on another person....

I have seen a very large number of videos which show a MAGAhatted yobbo standing in the way of a man at least three times his age and sneering at him.

I can't see how a single old man is "intimidating" a crowd of in excess of a hundred young men, or even a single young man who has backing a hundred strong.

Leaving politics out of it for a moment, I really can't find it in me to feel anything but contempt for a young man who has such a complete lack of basic manners. His school should be ashamed of him -- as I gather they probably are, from their only recorded comments on the matter.

Sorry, lurker, I haven't yet found the video which shows the single MAGAhat wearing yoof walking into a crowd of chanting, jeering native Americans.

It's easy to find online, even the Guardian uploaded the video, and I have linked the full 2 length video earlier on.

Fucking lol, you are not even pretending to hold them up in same kind of IDPOL moral standing, if the maga hat wearing fuckwits had come out with the homophobic shit they did you would have doubled down on it, slight tip, the Black Israelite's are being distanced in american woke circles so you can gain more woke points now.

You obviously haven't watched the the full 2 hour video which has made news networks to backpeddle, to try and insunuate that you only focus on facts and logic and not part of the shit show of partisan daily mail esc culture war is funny.

Just accept where you are, some of it is based on logic but you have been swept up in the culture war that you unironically call out.

I know, it's hard for people to understand that they are now signal boosting the binary culture war that is american politics.

People pointing out this is not a self reflective issue, it's brushed aside in a Trump like Fake news/troll/Russian bot write off
