    I'm no Kamala supporter by any means - but this video is HEAVILY edited to make her look bad.

    I've watched many of the speeches and interviews they've used in this video. One in particular, she's talking about how, with one stroke of her pen, she can have someone arrested for a small offense, which can ruin their life, their standing in the community, their employment, etc. It's edited to make it look like she's threatening to do this and happy to do it.

    The full speech talks about her realizing that the ramifications of her decisions were so large that it made her think twice about doing these things, which is part of the reason she opted not to chase prosections for lower-level offenses. Which, not so oddly enough, is one of the things the right likes to use against her. Saying she was too light on crime.

    Again, it's blatant hypocrisy when the right gets mad about editing Trump's comments and taking things out of context, and then they turn around and do the exact same thing to their opponent.

    Sometimes, I think the world would have been better off if the Internet were never invented.

    The longer we have the internet, the more I tend to agree with this. Far too much and too easy to spread lies without consequences.

    Well you just can not edit all of her victims, watching the lies tumble from her mouth in ,LIVE FEEDS can not be edits.
    I had my opinion of her years ago before all this and so much more got pushed and discovered and came out. I have not been shy on those thoughts. Evil. Nuff said for me.

    For sure!
    Nothing pisses me off more than that, or when people blatantly post false quotes attributed to another person. Especially from people who should know better.

    Good luck in the field everyone!

    Would have happened if they lost as well. Its not about who won or loss, it is about the reign of anarchy and entire generation of children raised by crappy parents with no backbone to discipline. If, there were parents at all.

    I knew absolutely zero about JD Vance before he was picked to be Trump's VP. Even after he was picked, I didn't learn much about him other than a few random clips I saw from a Nelk podcast he did and people talking about him dry-humping a couch and being "weird."

    I then listened to him on Theo Von's podcast a few weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised by what I heard. I like him quite a bit.

    Now I see he just did 3 hours on Rogan. I got through maybe 20 minutes at lunch today and it's already better than anything I've heard from Harris or Walz.

    And FWIW I listened to Kammie's full interview with Brett Baier and also the Call Her Daddy podcast she did with Alex Cooper.

    What I came away with after listening to those interviews was two things:

    1. She truly is not that smart of a person.
    2. She had some really good thoughts on Trump and how he conducts himself as a leader. To sum it up, she said that when you're in a position of power and have a voice that carries more weight than the average person, you have the responsibility to exercise caution with what you say and how you say it. That's the one area in which I think Trump fails the most. While it's a quality that endears him to many of the MAGA base, it's the same quality that pushes many people in the middle to want to back other candidates. If he could have somehow figured out a way to reign in the insults petty name-calling, he would run away with this election. The ONLY reason it's going to be close at all is because he's done such a tremendous job of making people hate him.

    yep, my dad had dementia & remembered things from his mid 20's & thought they happened yesterday yet couldn't remember an hour or a few days prior, he was late 70's at the time
    Biden was angry when he made the garbage statement, and while the wording has differed, think he has made it well known before what he thinks of Trump & his supporters not only with the statements but the mood / tone of them when spoken.
    think the attempted media cover up made it worse, like most things makes it remain in the media for longer than normal
    Trump doing interviews from a garbage truck - absolute gold. & he remembered safety first & wore a hivis vest.

    Trump and his supporters have conveyed what they think of Biden, so I don't blame Biden. If I were him, I would be walking out to let the world know what I thought of this clown show, and that is exactly what it is: a clown show.

    Funny Trump and his supports can call anyone or group a name, not a word, but call Trump or his supports names and the whining starts.

    i have seen children have better arguments than US politicians
    it ends with both resorting to name calling, slander, accusations, and zero discussions on how they intend to implement their policies
    same happens on both sides

    I beg to differ.
    lies have always been reported in print / TV news media where they are always slanted towards the theme that the editor in charge wants - and they would be governed by what the network boss / sponsor wants
    the news is supposed to be objective but it rarely, if ever is, instead it is subjective
    The difference is now the internet allows people to find the truth - hence many politicians want to shut down social media / regulate it knowing they have lost their power of telling the masses what they want them to hear

    what the internet / social media has done is allow someone somewhere in the world to post a pic or write something on their social medial channel & it gets picked up & ends up around the world in a few minutes with many thinking it is the truth with zero fact checking - which sounds like much of the news media to me.
    in the good old days it took a little longer as it needed word of mouth for transmission
    there's a reason why reporters say "allegedly / reportedly" and if proven wrong, how many times do you see reports of a correction? That coming from journalists who supposedly have ethics and standards (code of ethics / canons of journalism)
    In the good old days with the newspapers, an event would be front page headline news, many times taking up the first 5 pages, then once the hysteria has died down and reporting was proven to be less than accurate, if the paper may have written an apology, it is usually the size of a postage stamp buried deep in the paper between the jobs wanted / deceased listings. Spreading lies without consequences - doesn't apply to politicians or news stations, never has, never will

    IMO the worlds worst invention has been the smart phone -the most anti social device ever invented
    who hasn't been out somewhere and seen a family of i.e. 4 sitting at a table and each persons eyes glued to their phone. they probably SMS or email eachother instead of talking

    with Justin lamenting the invention of the internet - when will the 1st edition of the BHOD magazine be hitting the shelves?))

    She got what she deserved, I am just stating how it is in todays crazy world.

    She no different than Trump a clown show.

    Watching JD Vance on Rogan this morning I wonder what he would be like if we could see the real JD Vance. Not the one who has to pander to Trump and the maga clowns. We all know Vance can’t stand Trump and I believe he’s taking one for the team. It’s just nice to hear someone talk in complete sentences, can articulate what he wants to say and come across with a bit of common sense. His stay in your zone comments were spot on.

    Trump is just a clown show at this point, he nearly fell getting into that garbage truck, the die hard maga supporters are clowns, he’s going to lose to Kamala Harris who finished LAST in her primary race. Any other candidate the GOP puts up walks away with this election, but no gop put up this clown. Looks like even Vance can not save it.

    Trumps a clown, good job maga
