I'm thinking Snipe might be in the back of someone's trunk.

I'm thinking Snipe might be in the back of someone's trunk.

I’m slightly more concerned he is “unavailable” due to the contents found in “The Trunk of Snipe”.

Be well and come entertain us, Sir Snipe!

You know, I've never seen Snipe and Hunter Biden in the same place at the same time...

Speaking of...

Has anyone else been following the Glenn Greenwald departure from The Intercept today? Wow! Media Wars Gone Wild! (btw, Greenwald brought us the Edward Snowden info, which is his most noted achievement. He also co-founded The Intercept)


Greenwald's Claims


Main Stream Media Response (NBC News)


The Intercept's Response


Every day, things get more interesting.

If you are interested in Greenwald, you might want to review this:

On an unrelated note, I wonder why so many Republican state parties are working so hard in the courts to restrict voting.

There's a good chance, of the candidates available, THIS is the best guy to lead our country. Sigh.

I have a similar question- Why are the democrats working so hard in the courts to allow fraudulent voting?

At the very least, we'll continue to have some incredible soundbites coming out of the White House for the next 4 years...whoever wins. So we have that going for us..which is nice

Explain how you know it's "fraudulent". That's the great mystery part of the Republican opposition to accommodating voting in the year of covid. Of course Trump's position is different; oppose because if you don't, Republicans will never win...not that it's fraudulent.

They working to have the voters' votes counted...admittedly a novel concept.

(the republicans have almost succeeded in having ballots casts by overseas troops who send it before election day, and the hamstrung by DeJoy postal service not get them there on time, from being counted. Makes you proud, doesn't it.)

Or maybe votes cast after election day aren't fraudulent but simply not valid because they're late. People have been able to vote early for weeks, vote by mail, vote absentee, etc., how the hell is someone incapable of voting at this point by election day?
