She said "million" when she meant "thousand"* and said quote appeared 4 years ago, but never let a simple fact get in the way :thumbup:

*as soon as I saw the claim regarding "millions" I immediately guessed it was a mix up and they meant to say "thousands" BTW, it's such an obvious error someone would make when speaking live which happens all the time
She probably learnt about numbers from Diane Abbott. ;)
Or Liz Truss... :D

Just to clarify matters: Kamala's current position* on most issues is the polar opposite of what they have been for her entire career & therefore, she's admitting she was wrong on almost everything until a month ago?... or she's lying. Pick one.

* She's now adopted Trump's border policy.

I can imagine his advisors telling him to stick to policy on immigration and inflation but his instinct will be to take it to personal attacks.
George Conway has him addled.

I'll drop this one here for the people who refuse to watch vids. Worth a read IMO.
WASHINGTON — More than 200 Republicans who previously worked for either former President George W. Bush, the late Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., or Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president in an open letter Monday obtained exclusively by USA TODAY.

The letter from alums of the three Republican presidential nominees prior to former President Donald Trump comes on the heels of a Democratic National Convention last week in Chicago that showcased Republican detractors of the GOP nominee. At least five former aides to former President George H.W. Bush also signed the letter, which has 238 signatures in all.

A similar group of about 150 anti-Trump former staffers of Bush, McCain and Romney pledged support for President Joe Biden in the 2020 election.

"We reunite today, joined by new George H.W. Bush alumni, to reinforce our 2020 statements and, for the first time, jointly declare that we’re voting for Vice President Kamala Harris and Gov. Tim Walz this November," the letter reads. "Of course, we have plenty of honest, ideological disagreements with Vice President Harris and Gov. Walz. That’s to be expected. The alternative, however, is simply untenable."
There's more but I'm not your lackey, do your own search for it. :P

There are claims that it's AI generated. Apparently one of the indicators that it's fake is: everyone in the photo has four fingers. :?

That’s your latest, best effort at a clever, insightful and relevant nickname for a democrat? See me after class.

Can you come up with one for Vance?

In fairness, he earned that moniker some time ago for his greatest contribution to US politics.

Passing a bill enforcing the provision of tampons in all mens bathrooms in public schools.

...and you think the Russian leader publicly endorsing Harris is designed to win her American votes?

I kinda feel like the term "MSM" was coined by the Russians or Chinese anyway, it feels deliberately cultivated to plant the idea you can't believe what's on the news. The reality seems to be that most people who frequently use the term will believe any old bollox, which is exactly what I'd want if I were a Russian state sponsored social meeja hacker :lol:

Where's me tinfoil...

Zuckerberg has just admitted being part of that problem, he said the FBI lied to him to hush up the laptop story and the Biden administration lied during covid to hide stories. He says he regrets his blind trust in them.
Russian media lite maybe.

Zuckerberg isn't part of the media as I see it. Social Media is an entirely different beast.

I basically wouldn't believe anything on social media as it's written.

I just watched the interview where Putin said it. He said he'd been supporting Biden but Biden had to pull out so now he was supporting Harris.

Him and the interviewer couldn't keep straight faces. :lol:

Somewhere in Tennessee....

An indictment filed Wednesday alleges a media company linked to six conservative influencers — including well-known personalities Tim Pool, Dave Rubin and Benny Johnson — was secretly funded by Russian state media employees to churn out English-language videos that were “often consistent” with the Kremlin’s “interest in amplifying U.S. domestic divisions in order to weaken U.S. opposition” to Russian interests, like its war in Ukraine.
