They're really fixated on Air Force One right now. They've been going crazy about planes and flight plans the past couple of weeks. They actually think he's about to declare martial law/whatever in the air sometime during the next three hours.

We'll see what the newest goalpost-shifting is once that fails to happen, too.

His pride and hope prevent him from explicitly/straightforwardly acknowledging a Biden President — not a plan.

One pic is just another angle from the same set that was originally released months ago on Gnews, etc. (tagged July 2018 in LA). It's nothing new; and it's clearly an adult.

The other pic (of a clearly underage girl with an unidentified man) seems unrelated to any trove of Hunter pics. It looks like someone more recently circulated it with the old ones to give the misleading impression that they were related.

So first off, the two pics are entirely unrelated to each other, despite being juxtaposed.

The first is simply another angle from a set of pics that were released in the first trove months ago. It's pink thong stripper-pole girl from July 13, 2018 in LA; and if I remember correctly, the other pics from the original trove show her with a tattoo, or otherwise show that she's clearly just a petite adult — prob in her early 20s.

The second pic shows a man (only from upper chest down) holding the hand of skimpy bikini-clad child, who can't be more than 7 years old or something. Unlike pretty much every other Hunter picture that's been released, it has no Apple location/time tag, and seems to be much lower in quality than all others I've seen (and may not even originally come from a smartphone at all). Unlike most other Hunter pics, it's not a selfie by either Hunter or whoever he was with; and it has a much less "party" feel to it than pretty much every other pic, too. And honestly, as someone who's looked at many more naked pics of Hunter than I've cared to see, the man's build doesn't particularly look like his either, and he seems to have both less arm/chest hair than Hunter has.

I'd say it's almost 100% the case that the second pic isn't Hunter at all.

I'm just seeing everyone repeat the same unsubstantiated bullshit, with the only thing other than rumor/conjecture being a picture of a sheet of paper which purports to be an authentic affidavit (but with no identifying headers or anything).

Pretty sure I saw the saying the main woman behind all this saying that if people donated money to her, they could afford to get more research from Italy.

If anyone falls for that, though, they deserve to lose their money.

Pence, in certifying the fraudulent vote for Biden, committed a felony crime

Can't wait to hear what sort of brilliant legal theory this is based on.

If you can always rationalize like this, how could you ever be wrong about anything?

I’m not just asking rhetorically here. I mean, literally, if every piece of disconfirming evidence is always just part of a deeper conspiracy, I’d like to know how you think you’re anything other than infallible.

I’m saying you’re being inconsistent. The Trump that’s placating and conceding can’t also be planning on some shocking finale of enacting the Insurrection Act. Therefore he isn’t planning on doing it.

Forgive the bluntness, but anyone who thinks literally anyone in Congress cares about this, or is even aware of it, is living in fantasy land.

There are anecdotal reports that some of these claims were “sent to Congress.” But at best, some poor Congressional aides charged with sorting the mail took one look at it and deemed this Jason Bourne crap “entirely too fucking crazy to tell anyone important about.”

Anyways, I think he told Pres. Trump that he was going to reject the ECs, and he probably suggested Pres. Trump invite his supports to D.C. to celebrate.

People have wildly inaccurate ideas about Pence — and also highly misguided ideas about what unilaterally rejecting the EC votes would have meant and entailed. Pence has always been a moderating figure who doesn't have many radical tendencies, and is committed to the law and precedent.

I'm sorry to say this, but anyone who thought he was going to do anything other than what he did just isn't very politically astute. The time to do something about challenging the certification had waaay expired by the 6th. I know it's a super unpopular opinion, but Pence's hands were legitimately tied. At the very minimum, he didn't "betray" Trump, unless we think "someone who doesn't do exactly Trump wants, law/Constitution/whatever be damned" is a betrayer.

In any case, as for the rally: Trump is both idealistic and stubborn. He likes people telling him what he wants to hear; and because he is who he is, he can pretty find easily people who are willing to oblige him. That explains the existence of Giuliani, Lin Wood, and Sidney Powell — who basically made themselves laughing stocks to the wider legal community by all the bullshit they got themselves wrapped up in, to try to placate Trump. The same goes for John Eastman: a fringe figure who (as far as I understand) was one of the main legal advisors who was convincing Trump, against all evidence, that Pence had the power to unilaterally reject the votes.

There absolutely were other advisors who were telling Trump that people like Eastman were full of hot air. But Trump banked on that minuscule hope that Pence might somehow become convinced of the same things his sycophants had convinced him of. He also probably hoped that the visible display of all his followers would be an extra motivator for this. Hence Trump "inviting" everyone. He always knew it was a long-shot. The idea that it would be a huge letdown for the people who went out of their way to travel there probably wasn't a big concern for him.

You just said in the comment before that

He's doing the last thing he needs to avoid litigation and to avoid the 25th amendment.

You really think him trying to enact the IA in his last days is going to do anything other than get people to immediately invoke the 25th against him?

Looks like that just focuses on your typical run-of-the-mill trafficking and pedophilia that’s been around for decades/centuries. The only paragraph I’m seeing so far that goes beyond that says

The organization, also known as the Red Circle, has ties to the Bilderberg group, the Knights of Malta, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Federalist Society, the Federal Reserve Bank of the US, royal families of Belgium and the Netherlands, and NATO.

— which almost sounds like a parody of your typical Dan Brown conspiracy theory. Not surprisingly, searching for “red circle pedophilia” basically doesn’t return any reputable results whatsoever.

Yeah this is what I’m talking about. If the ability to type in coherent paragraphs and actually engage in critical thinking (instead of just blindly accepting whatever the outlandish conspiracy theory du jour is) is indicative of being a shill, I don’t even want to be whatever the opposite of “shill” is — which is starting to look more and more like “sheep” according to this definition.

This place has really gotten awful recently. A huge number of posters are starting to show the exact same cult-like mindset that leftists have always accused Trump supporters of.

People aren’t just accused of being shills if they’re going around being assholes or doing things that would actually suggest being a “shill,” but now simply if they acknowledge basic facts of reality that others don’t like. Last time I logged on earlier today, hundreds of people were accusing those who didn’t think “peaceful transition” in Trump’s statement — the one through Scavino — was a reference to a transition to a second Trump term (instead of to the Biden Presidency) of being shills.

You can now be accused of being a shill for casting the slightest bit of doubt on practically any wild conspiracy theory that happens to come up — of which there are more and more every day, and more and more outlandish. It seems that a huge amount of people have no discernment whatsoever, and don’t even care about whether things are true or not and can be supported by evidence, but only whether they make someone look good/bad.

Imagine if just a week ago, someone had come on here talking about how Pence was a pedophile, or how he was being initiated into the Illuminati or whatever. We all know that they would have been at about -300 downvotes and would get deported instantly. Now people are being downvoted like that if they don’t think that — despite there being absolutely no new evidence to suggest that this is any more true today than there was on Monday. Similarly, I saw plenty of people downvoted yesterday for questioning the idea that Trump has already put the Insurrection Act in effect, through a hidden message in his tweet.

Trump doesn't like to use language of concession, because it gives the impression of deliberately giving up. So basically, a forced transition.

This is the kind of mush that things like Q have turned some otherwise smart people's brains into — convincing them that Trump and others are always speaking in some kind of code, where you can decipher hidden messages in them, or make some completely wild and arbitrary connection.

But Freud said it best: sometimes (in fact usually) a cigar is just a cigar.

I just randomly flipped to one of those proofs. It's from 2017, and there Q says that they have a "special place for George Soros" — presumably Gitmo or where he'll face a military tribunal or whatever.

Well, not only did that clearly not ever happen, but the "proof" they show for that is a tweet by Trump four days later, where Trump also used the phrase "special place" — describing his trip to Camp David.

If this is indicative of the general quality of proofs, no wonder people think it's bullshit.

Where'd they find that coin, Hot Topic? Lol. I have trouble imagining Rep. Wenstrup giving Pence such a cheesy coin; though I suppose "we can't fix stupid, but we can give it a court date" is fairly relevant.

I mean, I guess it could be that coin; but I'd think it's more likely it was just something from the White House Gift Shop — a well-known maker of commemorative coins (though not officially associated with the WH). They mint all sorts of bullshit coins for mundane political occasions.
