This made me so upset. I was so happy for the VA-10 candidate (Aliscia Andrews) too since I got to speak with her briefly as she was handing out Sample Ballots in line when I went to vote early.

This is something I was thinking about too. That if too many of us are silent outside of the polls it gives the impression that our beliefs / ideas are not held by a near majority or are unpopular. Which is why I do commend my fellow pedes who wave their Trump flag proudly for their honesty and bravery too.

I should note that I think I would respond to a pollster differently if it were Republican primary season since typically only those with high enough poll numbers are found eligible for debate (well at least that's how it worked for the Democrats this year).

That being said, if you haven't seen this study, it's very interesting and more or less supports why I feel the way I do: https://www.cato.org/publications/survey-reports/poll-62-americans-say-they-have-political-views-theyre-afraid-share

Thought it had to be too good to be true, they also posted the same exact phrasing pretending to be a Kanye campaigner too. https://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/284728917

I searched the DOJ website's press releases for "National Security Cyber Matter" to see what kinds of announcements are normally made under this title.

https://www.justice.gov/usao/pressreleases?sort=field_pr_date&order=desc&keys=National%20Security%20Cyber%20Matter&items_per_page=25&f%5B0%5D=field_pr_date%3A2020

Notably, there was a press release dated July 20, 2020 for a conference the next day using similar phrasing related to Chinese hackers and COVID vaccine research. (source: https://www.justice.gov/usao-edwa/pr/department-justice-will-host-virtual-press-conference-announcing-criminal-charges)

Anyhow, just thought I'd share this information even though we will find out in 20 minutes or so about what this is about.

I went searching for more information and I'm not sure if the Hunter Biden stuff falls under the broad topic they will be discussing at 1:00pm. Fingers still crossed.

Officially this new conference is labelled as "The Department of Justice to Hold Virtual Press Conference on a National Security Cyber Matter."

Additional pictures from the event, looks like John Bolton was in attendance!:

I need a shy guy emoji to complete my life.

Two of my friends, both Democrats, said this in the group chat and I thought you guys might appreciate it. Even the left knows it can't meme.

You're right, they've definitely buckled to the liberal mob. I'm just pointing out that they never gave a shit about the impact on U.S. workers that previous specifically anti-Conservative boycotts might have and that they only care now when it's convenient and they can use it to try to make the president look bad. The hypocrisy is maddening.

Maybe I should have used another example of a large U.S. based company they've boycotted because they have severe TDS.

Also a lady pede here. I just wanted to offer the highest of fives for this response. He absolutely got REKT.

I want to write Facebook and say "So you admit the New York Times is fake news?" (since that is one of the sources linked on the website) LOL

I am tired of pretending like we live in a civil society. The Democrats never play by the rules but they expect everyone else to. Enough is enough. The gloves need to come off. Watching this is just pissing me off even more than I normally am. For the love of God let the man speak.
