@CCC:
Are you the news-crawl ticker on Fox News come to life?
Just doublechecking, because we don't allow bots on this forum.
What do you mean?
EDIT: I meant that in that the sense that the riots are a joke, I thought people were angry?

So what's this whole Trump/Russia conspiracy about? Does anyone know?
This was a lie:
Is that fake news?
The White House pages for civil rights, disabilities and LGBT rights have also been deleted.
And the Dark Ages begin. sigh
Is that fake news?
Yes, it was fake news.
Trump very, very clearly has ties to Russia, and the FBI knew it even then.
The only real question at this point is just how deep the Russian ties go, how much money Trump owes them, how much blackmail they have on him, and how much he actually personally knew about what was going on.
It's not "if" at this point but "how much."
Here's what I posted about it two weeks ago.
1. American intelligence agencies have confirmed that Vladimir Putin ordered Russia to intervene in the 2016 presidential election on the side of Donald Trump.
2. Trump refuses to acknowledge this.
3. Over the years, Russian oligarchs, friends of Putin, have financed Trump’s projects and lent billions of dollars to Trump’s enterprises. In 2008, Donald Trump Jr., told a real estate conference “Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets,” and continued, “we see a lot of money pouring in from Russia.”
4. The financial ties don’t end there. Trump’s former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, a longtime consultant to Viktor Yanukovich, the Russian-backed president of Ukraine who was overthrown in 2014, has done multi-million-dollar business deals with Russian oligarchs. Also: Trump’s pick for Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, CEO of ExxonMobil, came up through the ranks at Exxon by managing the company’s Russia account. After becoming CEO, Exxon bet billions on Russia’s vast oil resources through a partnership with Russian oil giant Rosneft, owned partly by the Kremlin. Putin himself attended the 2011 signing ceremony for the deal. In 2013, Putin awarded Tillerson the Order of Friendship, one of the highest honors Russia gives to foreign citizens.
Also, we know as fact that Trump owes at least $1.85 billion to 150 Wall Street firms and other financial institutions… but Hillary was the corrupt one beholden to wall street.
I take back what I said about our public television. They're airing All the President's Men tonight right after a full day of inaugeration coverage.
But at the moment there is zero evidence that Russia influenced the election, if there was evidence action would have been taken by now. It's a theory that's been blown out of proportion.
A better theory is that Trump and Putin are the same person. I mean even their names have similar letters in them. I can't believe we elected the Russian president.
Anyone else feeling emotional :(
So it beings.
Trump won this time because of an arrogant establishment who thought it was Clinton's "turn" to be president.
If Trump wins again, it will be because of the progressives.
You got 4 years to pull your heads out of your asses Leftists, don't fuck it up.

I'm convinced you're a professional troll at this point.

The FBI and CIA have both come to the same conclusion that Russia, under the direction of Putin, lead a campaign to influence the election in favor of Trump. Those two organizations do not arrive at the same conclusion because of an overblown theory. You have not been paying attention either when Obama announced the U.S. taking action against Russia.
Not sure if you're being mocking/insincere with that post since the online far right gets off on seeing people react with fear to awful things that will make their lives suck, but I'd say 63% of the country isn't happy about the worst possible type of human being given the powers of the American presidency.
There is also Trump directly calling for Russia to find the Hillary's deleted e-mails plus all the Putin dick-sucking he's been doing since he's been ever since he started running.
"OH DID I HURT YOUR PWESHUS FEEWINGS" I jeer as I stab you multiple times with a rusty knife.

"LOOK HOW DUMB YOU GUYS SOUND" says guy who thought Hillary Clinton was going to start World War III with Russia.

I knew today was going to bad and I'm really down about it, but I still believe it's fake news. I just have to accept that this is was inevitably coming. We won't see the effects of Trump being a president for a long time, I mean seriously why are some of you hostile towards me, what have I done that you want to stab me?? I know I don't follow your specific beliefs but please think it through before before getting overly worked up.

I quite simply wanted to see how other members (I would say 'leftists' but I can't account for everyone) would react. An over-reaction is an understatement.
Y'all need to stop being so toxic.
Definitely a professional troll.

Populism for dummies, what NOT to do.
To pretty much copy Mr Truth, I did the same thing. It's helped me deal with this whole thing. Watching the event now–I recorded it.
I don't care much about America, I'm more concerned about the rest of the world.
Obama was destructive enough.

63% of the 50% who voted.
Donny T is going to do a lot worse than drone warfare if you're talking about that.

I meant 100% minus his 37% approval rating.

Yeah because Obama is totally responsible for the rise of Isis, the UK leaving the EU, Israel acting like everyone's condemning them for no reason, Russia annexing another country's land, the Philippines electing a guy who believes in extrajudicial killings, North Korea constantly rattling sabers, etc.
Careful Dropper. Posting anything anti-Obama could get you banned around here..
It being anti-Obama isn't the problem, the problem is that it lacks context….why is a chart about Obama and drone deaths being posted? besides blantantly stirring shit.
If you seriously used drones as your big reason to support Trump, you are a fucking moron.
snip
Since you started that game, you do know the killfeed of the Republicans in that region, years before Obama?
Seems like there was a good balance on the cop side of things for the protests (at least from that one person's perspective), which is nice to know.
@Cyan:

The election narrative was that he was the dove and she was the hawk.
It's good to see that anarchists are still completely incapable of doing a single thing right.
With the exception of children who are too young to vote, the opinions of anyone who didn't vote are invalid.
Draconian Voter ID laws be damned, eh?

I'm sorry you're not paying attention and such a small factual pushback has gotten you into such a state.

That's strange. I don't remember being banned.
Draconian Voter ID laws be damned, eh?
Well you see if SHILLary had bothered to spend November 3rd in Wisconsin, Scott Walker's heart would grow 17 times (thus reaching the size of a normal human heart) and he would repeal all the voter suppression legislature he pushed for.
You don't get banned for opinions.
You do get banned for trolling.
And for harassing staff in emails.
Truly this is a man who understands the military.

According to someone on my Facebook, the LGBT and disabilities pages were taken down to be updated for the new President, and that this happens with every President. I'm not sure what this person's sources are, though. This is a Bernie or Buster who used to be anti-Trump but became a massive Trump fanboy defending everything he says and does after Hillary won the primary. He also believed every conspiracy posted about Hillary despite normally thinking conspiracy theories like anti-vaccination and chemtrails are ridiculous. (he hates Mike Pence for his anti-LGBT policies though)

Ask him why Trump is appointing a pro-HB2 guy to lead DoJ's Civil Rights division.
Apparently the website thing is that they are being archived into a separate section of the site related to Obama. It's just odd that the first of these sections to be removed from the main site -without any new content- is the sections on Climate Change, LGBT, and Civil Rights.
Melania Trump's bio includes a plug of her QVC items.

Those particular pages didn't exist during the last transition and the lack of replacements compared to other pages that were similarly yanked definitely stands out.
LGBT, Health Care, and Civil Rights pages to be archived in a special "Things We Used To Care About" section of the site.

Trump calls for a national day of patriotism
I think Russia has one like that as well.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Also starts repealing Obamacare.
We already have veteran's day and the fourth of July. Don't think we need another one unless Trump wants to rile up the anti-Russia crowd. I think Russian people also drink water and breathe air. I could be mistaken.
We got to hear Trump's speech via radio in the car. My sister was not happy lol

Fun fact: September 11th is actually already Patriot Day and has been since 2002.
Hey, not sure how well a petition will work, but I have the link to a petition. It's halfway there on the first day, but I'd like to be extra carefully and help put this out there.
So what's this whole Trump/Russia conspiracy about? Does anyone know?
-Trump as president is a once in a lifetime chance for Russia to have an American president who will advance their interests and even go so far as to fanboy over them.
-Russia is an expert on disinformation tactics.
-Russia uses disinformation tactics and extremely politically lopsided hacking to benefit and advance Trump's chances at winning.
-Trump has routinely denied any and all allegations, with at best a few quiet acknowledgements, and choosing to attack for instance the CIA over the Russian government.
Those are straight up facts right there.
The conspiracy side is people wondering if there is more to their relationship than convenience and shared views. Such as these two.
1. Rendered Trump into a compliant patsy through Kompromat. The existence of kompromat on Trump is all but confirmed, but the idea that the Russians have him blackmailed and as a puppet remains conspiracy.
2. Trump's campaign was actively working with and together with the Russians during the election.
