I refer readers to this thread.
If you read the prior thread, you can see why Tom has to shift the debate from what is actually happening to a hypothetical (GOP facing off with a Dem POTUS and a liberal nominee). My argument is about historical precedents, not Mitch's sincerity.
"In a different situation, McConnell would do the wrong thing" is not an argument against, in this situation, McConnell doing the right thing. @RadioFreeTom

It will always be easier to tear things down than build them.
Of course, the Weekly Standard almost never spoke for the majority of conservatives, or of Republicans; it occupied that space, at most, for fleeting moments in his history.

But a healthy movement does not demand that all its voices sing the same lines from the same hymnals.
People forget this now, but even in the Bush years, TWS' identification with John McCain made it an uneasy ally at times of Team W. In August 2001, it called on Don Rumsfeld to resign in protest over the defense budget being too small.

1. The latest hit job on @EWErickson is best understood as an effort to get mainstream outlets to blackball him. That raises an important point about civility, reasoned discourse, & how the enemies of the latter use the former as a cudgel.
@EWErickson 2. Civility is important; it's a virtue, though not an overriding one. But there are problems with policing civility. One, it's a word with varied meanings, so it's easy to accuse ideological enemies of offenses against civility.
@EWErickson 3. Two, people who regularly write and speak provocatively about ideas & events can easily be cherry-picked at their roughest moments - convicted of flourishes as if that's their daily output.

1. George H.W. Bush's strongest suit as president was the deep experience, judgment, knowledge, contacts, and yes, prudence, that he brought to the role of Commander in Chief. Poster boy for the value of experience.
2. HW's weakest point as president was his lack of vision, philosophy, or constancy in domestic policy, as well as lacking the gift for communications to cover for that. Of course, he had less party support in Congress than all but a few presidents.
3. HW also came after 8 years of Reagan picking the low hanging policy fruit, so it was harder for him to build an obvious domestic agenda.

The Cosmic Movement's penetration of Indian Freedom Struggle, Politics, Education & Religion.

This thread focuses on advanced threat perception from this group. Although this is a vast network covering many areas we concentrate here on key players driving it forward.
This guy is Max Theon original name Louis-Maximilian Bimstein. He founded the Cosmic Movement. As we will see each and every member of this network prefers to hide their original name, identity and history.
Many prominent people were involved with this Cosmic Movement as we will see. One of them was Tomáš Masaryk (who became the first President of Czechoslovakia) also the Princess of Rohan in Vienna and many others. However this group was actually a spin-off of the OTO.

1) On 10/28/2017 #QAnon started us out with a monster. It took time to even know what we had or what was coming. But many were so intrigued that it kept us coming back for more.

Soon, we will know if this tweet was actually intended for 10/2018 this coming Tuesday. #WWG1WGA
2) There will be links to a few of my older threads within this thread. If you’re new to Q (these bastards deleted my Q beginner thread) or new to Operation Mockingbird I HIGHLY suggest you grab a cup of coffee & learn about all of this. It will blow you away. #WWG1WGA ❤️🇺🇸👊🏼
3) Many believe that the first string of #Qanon posts were actually foreshadowing for this year. Like we are watching a movie. I believe it to be true & time will tell if we are right. Pay attention to the dates of the Q posts for these early ones & not the days of the week.

1) COME E PERCHE' IL GOVERNO LEGA-M5S POTREBBE SVOLGERE UNA FUNZIONE STORICA POSITIVA.

Chi si pone dal punto di vista del conflitto classe-capitale, ritengo non possa auspicare la fine prematura di questo governo.
Al di fuori dei singoli temi dell'agenda politica che stanno polarizzando il dibattito pubblico, l'effetto generale - non per meriti propri ma grazie alle istanze sociali che formalmente rappresenta - è quello d'una positiva ri-definizione dell'agenda politica.
Questo significa che i dogmi e gli assiomi del liber-globalismo fino a ieri considerati come fenomeni ineluttabili grazie alla concezione deterministica della storia che li accompagnava, sono oggi messi in discussione, innanzitutto da un numero crescente di leader della sinistra.

Peace on the Korean Peninsula

#Qanon8chan #Q #QArmy #WWG1WGA #WeThePeople #MAGA #TheGreatAwakening #TheStorm #TrustThePlan #Trump #DrainTheSwamp #ReleaseTheTexts #NoRedactions #NorthKorea @realDonaldTrump
NEW #QAnon 1289.

Peace on the Korean Peninsula isn't big news?
Should we drop a #MOAB on that?
Timetables shift.
[Next week].

#Qanon8chan #QanonPosts #QArmy #QAlert #WWG1WGA #WeThePeople #MAGA #TheGreatAwakening #thestorm #TrustThePlan #Trump #ReleaseTheTexts @realDonaldTrump
When #Q asks "Peace on the Korean Peninsula isn't big news?" he is referring to historic peace talks between North & South Korea, for which the press has given little to no credit to #Trump.
