		<description>@m,

any and all crimes for which there is evidence that will hold up in court, regardless of the political party of the perpetrator, should result in the convening of a grand jury.

unless of course those alleged crimes are committed by the president, in which case the proper course is an impeachment inquiry.

as to whether &quot;democrats&quot; should be punished, i would say absolutely not. criminal offenders, if proven in a court of law, should be punished. political actors, if no crime can be proven, should be mocked and derided thoroughly, but certainly not locked up. if a crime CAN be proven, they should suck it up and serve their time.

&lt;i&gt;No... That&#039;s moronic ASCII art that is so childish I passed it by over 40 years ago.. &lt;/i&gt;

Alrighty then, you&#039;re a grumpy old bald, fat swamp poon who can quite obviously understand the concept of someone passing by something they deem childish... then you naturally &lt;b&gt;can&lt;/b&gt; understand somebody just daily passing by the vast majority of Trollshit Mountain and their silence being the act of (mostly) ignoring the board troll. 

&lt;i&gt;The FACT is that Democrats have made a COTTAGE INDUSTRY around SILENCE IS ASSENT/CONSENT.... THAT is fact.. &lt;/i&gt;

So you&#039;re saying you&#039;re a Democrat? 

Are you so damn uneducated that you cannot grasp the FACT that silence can have multiple meanings and is not limited to one? Seems like it. 

&lt;i&gt;You just don&#039;t like it now because it proves what a moron you really are.. &lt;/i&gt;

You don&#039;t know what I don&#039;t like unless I tell you; so I&#039;ll tell you. I don&#039;t like it when an uneducated poon keeps prattling on and on about something like &quot;silence&quot; and claiming it&#039;s a FACT that the meaning of silence is limited to the confines of his obviously inadequate education. 

&lt;i&gt;Funny how you keep claiming how BORING I am.. &lt;/i&gt;

Funny how CW described you dead on balls accurate:

http://www.chrisweigant.com/2020/07/29/rampant-gop-incompetence-on-full-display/#comment-166413

&lt;i&gt;Yet you still come back here and get bitch slapped over and over and over again.. &lt;/i&gt;

I am never not here, Mike. It is... in fact... &lt;b&gt;you&lt;/b&gt; who keeps coming back and spewing the Trollshit Mountain and foaming at the mouth and can&#039;t shut his pie hole up about the FACT that he keeps beating his wife over and over and over again.

&lt;b&gt;So, to recap:&lt;/b&gt; Silence really is a ginormous middle finger.</description>

		<description>Incorrect! As usual. 

I&#039;m definitely scrolling through Trollshit Mountain and thereby figuratively giving you and your &quot;downright boring&quot; monotonous clown show the middle finger.

&lt;i&gt;Yea, you keep spewing that bullshit.. &lt;/i&gt;

That doesn&#039;t remotely qualify as bullshit, but I blame your ignorance for not being able to recognize what is downright obvious to everyone else. Besides, if you had something against spewing bullshit, there&#039;d naturally be a whole lot less of your Trollshit Mountain for others to scroll through... as one does. 

&lt;i&gt;But the FACTS prove you wrong.. &lt;/i&gt;

Nope. But your ever-present confusion does prove you&#039;re obviously clearly clueless. 

&lt;i&gt;Invoking MLK, Clyburn says silence is consent

If one does not object to or stand up against something that one does not like or agree with, then one is complicit in permitting it to happen. &lt;/i&gt;

Well, dumbass, on a political chat board, the act of people (mostly) ignoring your repetitive monotonous prattle and spew &lt;b&gt;is &lt;/b&gt;the act of taking a stand against you. If you don&#039;t like the fact you&#039;re the troll who is being (mostly) ignored because his prattling clown show is demonstrably &quot;downright boring,&quot; then I&#039;d say you can shove it where the sun don&#039;t shine, but not before removing your own head.

&lt;b&gt;So to recap:&lt;/b&gt; Your trolling clown show is &quot;downright boring&quot; and being (mostly) ignored. That is how people on a political chat board take a stand. So, I reiterate:

&lt;blockquote&gt;
Silence does not give assent; it just means people don&#039;t give two shits or even a cent, let alone two. 

~ Kick &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Or, to rephrase: 

&lt;blockquote&gt;
Silence means getting the middle finger.

Philip Bump wrote an incredibly thorough explanation of how FoxNews is misrepresenting what the Durham filing actually means.  Instead of pulling a Michale and posting multiple lengthy excerpts of the article, I will let you read it for yourself:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/02/16/fox-newss-durham-narrative-survives-emergence-inconvenient-details/

Here’s what should have been the biggest clue that you were getting made a fool of by FoxNews’ spin:

How many more defendants were indicted by Durham based on this info?  None?None.  How many new charges were added to the indictment of the only person charged after all of these horrific crimes were exposed?  None?  None.  

And according to you… your posts 21,22, &amp; 23 prove that your posts 33,34,35,&amp;36 are bullshat.  I just shut down almost 20 posts of yours in this one single post.  Ouch!</description>

&lt;i&gt;Shuts everyone up.. :D &lt;/i&gt;

Trollshit Mountain is proof that it doesn&#039;t shut everyone up. Maybe we should rename that Scrollshit Mountain... as one does. 

I think you should seriously allow yourself the revelation that your repetitive prattling drivel and spew is being largely (mostly) ignored. CW pegged you dead on accurate: You are &quot;downright boring.&quot; Circumstances such as they are, your monotonous clown show has the ability to insult exactly no one on the forum, with the exception of yourself, obviously. 

&lt;b&gt;So, to recap:&lt;/b&gt; Silence does &lt;b&gt;not&lt;/b&gt; give assent; it just means people don&#039;t give two shits or even a cent, let alone two.</description>

&lt;i&gt;I would offer a counter argument to your comment, but you did not include any argument in your comment to counter. &lt;/i&gt;

As anyone with a fundamental ability at reading comprehension can clearly see, there are quite obviously multiple declarations in the post for which you could easily present a counterpoint; the fact you&#039;ve self-disclosed your inability to recognize a single one of them bolsters my longstanding arguments regarding the folly of your gloating about your education, specifically the lack thereof.

&lt;i&gt;Just more of your ignorant rube board troll nonsense.&lt;/i&gt;

Nice to see you are emulating my word usage (even if it is in a fit of obvious projection)... lets me know what hits the mark and lets us all know that you actually can learn from others and would therefore benefit from the education we are all so frequently telling you to seek: Don&#039;t knock it &#039;til you&#039;ve tried it. 

As for the point I believe you thought you were making, thank you for proving my ever-present prevailing argument; it was most generous of you to volunteer to provide it, but if I&#039;m being completely honest, not the least bit unexpected. 

&lt;b&gt;So, to recap:&lt;/b&gt; It is never too late to get an education. Just think how exciting it could be to learn to arrange words in proper paragraphs versus sentence fragments and veritable shit piles of word salad? Just think of the possibilities!

*dream sequence*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Why... you could finally endeavor to tackle that mess of a seriously outdated website, update that pathetic bio to include an achievement, and once and for all you&#039;d possess the ability to start shilling for yourself instead of trolling another man&#039;s blog in flailing attempts to have him perform what you are currently clearly not equipped to manage. And as an added bonus, you could not only use your newfound skills to clean up your Internet presence, you could become gainfully employed and move out of your Mother&#039;s house.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Or not... park your ass, begging anyone/everyone to achieve something/anything/everything for you.</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Today, Matt Drudge is apparently a confirmed recluse. Did he cash out? Did Trump treat him shabbily, so now he’s getting back at him? Did he change his politics? Whatever the answer, fine. But his past aficionados would like something approximating a manly explanation as to why the Drudge Report died.&lt;/B&gt;

		<description>&lt;B&gt;The site offered its readers nary a link nor a word – though it did serve them up about a dozen links to sensationalist stories on the Super Bowl and off-field pro football escapades; three stories on Elon Musk having too much self-made money; the mandatory half dozen or so negative stories on either Donald Trump, his allies, or Jan. 6; three links – in red – gloating about Sarah Palin losing her case against the New York Times; and naturally a half dozen headlines on which to click to get your sex, drugs, or Hollywood bizarre news fix.

It wasn’t until Rich Lowry’s column was posted online late Monday in the New York Post that Drudge readers got their link deep into the evening. But the Drudge editors paired it with a link to a 2019 NBC News article about how “Mueller declined to charge Don Jr. after meeting with Russian for dirt on Hillary …” A move clearly meant to undermine the importance of the latest Hillary bombshell. As of Tuesday morning, that’s been the entirety of Drudge’s interest in this story.&lt;/B&gt;

Drudge sold out..  He&#039;s a has-been....  He was great in his day, but he gave in to Trump/America hate and now he is not relevant any more...</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;DRUDGE IS DEAD

Yet today, it is the Drudge Report that is Newsweek.

The Drudge Report might quaintly sport the same typeface it used in the early days of the Internet, but on Sunday and then all day and all evening Monday, a story of Lewinskyesque scale rocked the nation’s capital.

In a court submission last week, Special Counsel John Durham alleged, as Fox News put it, “that lawyers from Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign … paid to access servers belonging to Trump Tower and later the White House in order to establish an ‘inference’ and ‘narrative’ to bring to federal government agencies linking then-President Trump to Russia.”

Durham, probably the most straight-shooting, apolitical lawyer in the federal government, now years into an exhaustive probe, revealed that Hillary Clinton’s campaign sought out both the FBI and the CIA in peddling lies that Trump was colluding with Russia, so as to get every news outlet it could to keep that false story at the top of the news during the 2016 campaign, and then, when that failed, to use it to cripple the Trump presidency.

But if the Drudge site is your go-to news source, you might never have known on Monday that Durham did anything.&lt;/B&gt;
https://issuesinsights.com/2022/02/15/drudge-is-dead/

Drudge actually died when it turned into a Trump/America hating website...

The lack of coverage of a Watergate/Lewinsky news bomb simply made it obvious to all..

Trump/America Hate killed Drudge just as factly and as obviously as Trump/America Hate killed our old friend, CW...</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt;The Media Research Center found that ABC, CBS and NBC evening newscasts alone spent a whopping 2,634 minutes covering the investigations into alleged Russia collusion through July 20, 2019. &quot;That’s nearly one-fifth (19.5%) of all of these broadcasts’ Trump coverage, a huge shadow on his presidency,&quot; analyst Rich Noyes wrote. 

The heavy-handed coverage from ABC, CBS and NBC was in addition to the dedicated airtime from both CNN and MSNBC, which focused relentlessly on the investigation&#039;s developments. The New York Times and Washington Post even shared the Pulitzer Prize for in 2018 &quot;for deeply sourced, relentlessly reported coverage&quot; of alleged Russian interference. &lt;/B&gt;


All that coverage which amounted to complete and utter KAA-KAA...

Now that the FACTS have come out and it has been PROVEN to be kaa-kaa???

		<description>Russ,

The fact that the Left Wing media is burying this story is EXACTLY what&#039;s wrong with the Left Wing media..

This is a story bigger than Watergate...  And the fact that the Left Wing media (with a few exceptions) is trying to bury the story PROVES that the Left Wing media is nothing but the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party..

In other words, your claim that the Left Wing media is burying the story is a BAD thing..</description>

I get it you can&#039;t address the point..

Because it proves how wrong you ALWAYS are..

Just like your claim that the White House wasn&#039;t compromised...

I guess you’ve proven that Donald Trump was full of shit, after all.  The article was from Saturday and focused on Trump’s claim that no one from “lamestream” media was running the story.   So thanks for showing that Donald Trump still cannot be trusted to tell the truth!</description>

		<description>And Russ??  Your claim that it&#039;s only Right Wing sources reporting this??

That&#039;s ALSO demonstrably bullshit..

&lt;B&gt;Special counsel Durham alleges Clinton campaign lawyer used data to raise suspicions about Trump

(CNN)Special counsel John Durham accused a lawyer for the Democrats of sharing with the CIA in 2017 internet data purported to show Russian-made phones being used in the vicinity of the White House complex, as part of a broader effort to raise the intelligence community&#039;s suspicions of Donald Trump&#039;s ties to Russia shortly after he took office.

The accusation -- which Durham couched in vague, technical language in a court filing late Friday -- has been seized upon by Trump and his supporters, who claim the former President was subjected to a smear campaign.
Durham says in the filing that Michael Sussmann, the Democratic lawyer, spoke about internet data related to Trump in a meeting with a federal agency, which sources say was the CIA, more than five years ago. Sussmann claimed the information &quot;demonstrated that Trump and/or his associates were using supposedly rare, Russian-made wireless phones in the vicinity of the White House and other locations,&quot; according to the filing.
Durham&#039;s office said it found nothing to support the allegation. The special counsel also noted that the data showed a Russian phone provider connection involving the Executive Office of the President &quot;during the Obama administration and years before Trump took office.&quot;&lt;/B&gt;

		<description>&lt;B&gt; FACTUAL BACKGROUND

. . In his meeting with Agency-2 employees, the defendant also made a substantially similar false statement as he had made to the FBI General Counsel. In particular, the defendant asserted that he was not representing a particular client in conveying the above allegations. In truth and in fact, the defendant was representing Tech Executive-1 – a fact the defendant subsequently acknowledged under oath in December 2017 testimony before Congress (without identifying the client by name). &lt;/B&gt;

Again, Sussmann lied to the FBI to get them to open an investigation..  THIS IS FACT...

I&#039;ll say it again..  EVERYTHING you morons believe about the Russia Collusion Delusion that is criminal??  Is complete and utter crap... NONE of it happened..

This has been established as FACT...</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt; FACTUAL BACKGROUND

The Indictment further details that on February 9, 2017, the defendant provided an updated set of allegations – including the Russian Bank-1 data and additional allegations relating Case 1:21-cr-00582-CRC  to Trump – to a second agency of the U.S. government (“Agency-2”). The Government’s evidence at trial will establish that these additional allegations relied, in part, on the purported DNS traffic that Tech Executive-1 and others had assembled pertaining to Trump Tower, Donald Trump’s New York City apartment building, the EOP, and the aforementioned healthcare provider. In his meeting with Agency-2, the defendant provided data which he claimed reflected purportedly suspicious DNS lookups by these entities of internet protocol (“IP”) addresses affiliated with a Russian mobile phone provider (“Russian Phone Provider-1”). The defendant further claimed that these lookups demonstrated that Trump and/or his associates were using supposedly rare, Russian-made wireless phones in the vicinity of the White House and other locations. The Special Counsel’s Office has identified no support for these allegations. Indeed, more complete DNS data that the Special Counsel’s Office obtained from a company that assisted Tech Executive-1 in assembling these allegations reflects that such DNS lookups were far from rare in the United States. For example, the more complete data that Tech Executive-1 and his associates gathered – but did not provide to Agency-2 – reflected that between approximately 2014 and 2017, there were a total of more than 3 million lookups of Russian Phone-Provider-1 IP addresses that originated with U.S.-based IP addresses. Fewer than 1,000 of these lookups originated with IP addresses affiliated with Trump Tower. In addition, the more complete data assembled by Tech Executive-1 and his associates reflected that DNS lookups involving the EOP and Russian Phone Provider-1 began at least as early 2014 (i.e., during the Obama administration and years before Trump took office) – another fact which the allegations omitted. &lt;/B&gt;

Create a narrative..   That was the goal..

And you Democrat morons bought into that fantasy narrative hook line and sinker..

Let me repeat it for the cheap seats..

EVERYTHING.....  ***EVERYTHING*** ya&#039;all believe was criminal about the Russia Collusion Delusion was complete and utter BULLSHIT..

This has been established ***AS FACT***....

Keep in mind one point, which I will drive home..

Durham&#039;s filing was filed with the courts &lt;B&gt;**AS FACTUAL BACKGROUND**&lt;/B&gt;...  If none of it is factual, than Durham would not have filed it AS FACT...

If none of what was filed as FACTUAL BACKGROUND is actually fact, then Durham would be disbarred and prosecuted.. Does ANYONE here (anyone with more than two brain cells to rub together anyways) HONESTLY believe that Durham would risk his entire professional life to file bullshit or lies??

Of course not..

So.. EVERYTHING I am posting here is ESTABLISHED FACT...</description>

		<description>Russ... This one&#039;s for you...

&lt;B&gt;FACTUAL BACKGROUND

The Government’s evidence at trial will also establish that among the Internet data Tech Executive-1 and his associates exploited was domain name system (“DNS”) Internet traffic
pertaining to (i) a particular healthcare provider, (ii) Trump Tower, (iii) Donald Trump’s Central Park West apartment building, &lt;I&gt;and (iv) the Executive Office of the President of the United States (“EOP”) emphasis mine&lt;/I&gt; . (Tech Executive-1’s employer, Internet Company-1, had come to access and maintain dedicated servers for the EOP as part of a sensitive arrangement whereby it provided DNS
resolution services to the EOP. Tech Executive-1 and his associates exploited this arrangement by mining the EOP’s DNS traffic and other data for the purpose of gathering derogatory information about Donald Trump.) &lt;/B&gt;

Russ, you claimed &quot;Durham never once said anything about the White House being “infiltrate[d]” (3)&quot;..

The FACTUAL BACKGROUND proves that Joffe mined data from the White House AFTER President Trump was in office...

So, yea..  The White House was a target..  Ya moron..</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt;FACTUAL BACKGROUND

The Indictment also alleges that, beginning in approximately July 2016, Tech Executive-1 had worked with the defendant, a U.S. investigative firm retained by Law Firm-1 on behalf of the Clinton Campaign, numerous cyber researchers, and employees at multiple Internet companies to assemble the purported data and white papers. In connection with these efforts, Tech Executive-1 exploited his access to non-public and/or proprietary Internet data. Tech Executive-1 also enlisted the assistance of researchers at a U.S.-based university who were receiving and
analyzing large amounts of Internet data in connection with a pending federal government cybersecurity research contract.

<p>The Indictment also alleges that, beginning in approximately July 2016, Tech Executive-1 had worked with the defendant, a U.S. investigative firm retained by Law Firm-1 on behalf of the Clinton Campaign, numerous cyber researchers, and employees at multiple Internet companies to assemble the purported data and white papers. In connection with these efforts, Tech Executive-1 exploited his access to non-public and/or proprietary Internet data.

		<description>&lt;B&gt;FACTUAL BACKGROUND

The defendant’s billing records reflect that the defendant repeatedly billed the Clinton Campaign for his work on the Russian Bank-1 allegations. In compiling and disseminating these allegations, the defendant and Tech Executive-1 also had met and communicated with another law partner at Law Firm-1 who was then serving as General Counsel to the Clinton Campaign (“Campaign Lawyer-1”). &lt;/B&gt;

So, we know for a FACT that Sussmann lied to the FBI when he gave them doctored and planted evidence that created a narrative that there was criminal contact between Russia and the Trump campaign..

		<description>&lt;B&gt;FACTUAL BACKGROUND

The defendant is charged in a one-count indictment with making a materially false statement to the FBI, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 1001 (the “Indictment”). As set forth in the Indictment, on Sept. 19, 2016 – less than two months before the 2016 U.S. Presidential election – the defendant, a lawyer at a large international law firm (“Law Firm-1”) that was then serving as counsel to the Clinton Campaign, met with the FBI General Counsel at FBI
Headquarters in Washington, D.C. The defendant provided the FBI General Counsel with purported data and “white papers” that allegedly demonstrated a covert communications channel between the Trump Organization and a Russia-based bank (“Russian Bank-1”). The Indictment alleges that the defendant lied in that meeting, falsely stating to the General Counsel that he was not providing the allegations to the FBI on behalf of any client. In fact, the defendant had assembled and conveyed the allegations to the FBI on behalf of at least two specific clients, including (i) a technology executive (“Tech Executive-1”) at a U.S.-based Internet company (“Internet Company1”), and (ii) the Clinton Campaign. &lt;/B&gt;

We know that Sussmann is going to jail..

Unless he names names...

Again, I have to point out.. These are not bullshit PROCESS crimes like the ones Democrats pinned on President Trump officials..

These are the ACTUAL crimes committed that are being indicted..</description>

Let&#039;s have at it..  :D

Russ,

You said it&#039;s only Right Wing sources that are covering Durham&#039;s explosive facts..

Of course..  That&#039;s because the Left Wing media totally bought in to the Russia Collusion delusion...  They were PART of it..

And, as CNN has proven beyond any doubt, Left Wing media NEVER covers their own frak ups..

So, it&#039;s up to the REAL media, the REAL news to expose the Russia Collusion Delusion for all Americans to learn...

Everything you said about the Russia Collusion delusion that was criminal has been exposed as complete and utter bullshit...</description>

		<description>@vick

&lt;I&gt;So, to recap: Silence will never give assent. Duh.&lt;/I&gt;

That&#039;s not what morons like you and Paula et al said during the aftermath of Charlottesville..

That&#039;s not what Democrat morons said in 22 years (collectively) of Democrat BLM and AntiFa riots...

Hell, Democrats routinely hold up signs in their riots and protests that state explicitly &lt;B&gt;SILENCE GIVES ASSENT&lt;/B&gt;

So, it&#039;s YOU Democrat morons that have established that silence, indeed, gives assent..

So, since Hillary was silent about the accusations, that means she is conceding the accusations...

Just like when you Weigantians™ are silent about my facts, you are conceding my facts..

Once again, vick.. You lose..

		<description>Russ,

&lt;I&gt;Nope. Nothing that I said had occurred has changed or has been shown to have been untrue.&lt;/I&gt;

Still delusional to the end, eh??

EVERYTHING you said has been exposed to be total bullshit..

&lt;I&gt;(2) Durham never once said anything about the White House being “infiltrate[d]&lt;/I&gt;

BBBBWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAAHAHHA

Do you know what the EOP is, Russ??

&lt;B&gt;Durham&#039;s filing said some of the internet data that was mined was connected to two Trump buildings in New York City, the executive office of the president (EOP), and an unrelated Michigan hospital company that had also interacted with the Trump server.&lt;/B&gt;

You DO know that the EOP is the Executive Office Of The President, right??

You DO know that the Executive Office Of The President is in the White House, right???

Jeezus, Russ..  At least present a CHALLENGE, eh??

So, let&#039;s sum up..

Everything you have ever believed about the Russia Collusion delusion that was criminal has been PROVEN to be bullshit...

You lost... Deal with it..</description>

		<description>JL,

&lt;I&gt;Why on earth does anyone care what Russia did six years ago on the internet, when they&#039;re on the verge of a full scale, real-life military invasion right now?&lt;/I&gt;

Your question is completely misplaced..

None of this is about what Russia did 6 years ago..

It&#039;s about what Democrats did..  Lying, cheating, spying, criminal activities..

More lying, more cheating, more spying, more criminal activities..

Are you saying that Democrats should go unpunished for their persecution and their crimes??</description>

		<description>Sounds good. You&#039;ve got my vote.  The main thing I like about ranked-choice voting is that the bad person doesn&#039;t win because two better candidates split the good people&#039;s vote. (I know that&#039;s too simplistic.) Suppose Satan gets 40%, the Angel Gabriel gets 35%, and the Angel Raphael gets 25% of the vote on the first round. With traditional voting Satan wins, though 60% of the voters opposed him. With ranked-choice voting, if all of the Angel Raphael&#039;s voters choose the Angel Gabriel as their second choice, Gabriel wins in the second round with 60%, a much better response to the general will of the people, most of whom didn&#039;t want Satan.</description>
