- I do hope they have Safe Space facilities and a Creche.Morning_star
- what no PJW?Bluejam
- If this whole thing isn’t a big safe space for bigots, then I don’t know what is.monospaced
- I'm subscribed to some of them. Doesn't mean I agree with them always but I like to see different views and not be stuck in an echo-chamber.********
- As a left leaning guy what pisses me off mostly is how the left gets triggered and acts like the right-wingers did during Bush/ Cheney years.********
- Meaning: Being super aggressive and not giving dialogue & discussion any chance but just flat out calling for censorship, violence, name-calling, etc.********
- you're literally like an echo in a chamberFax_Benson
- It's interesting to watch, in real time, Europe becoming the new Middle East. I don't think posters and speeches do much though...robotron3k
- How come the only alternative you can imagine to the left are people like this?yuekit
- It's quite tedious actually, the left has some issues so let's go back to being social conservative reactionaries.yuekit
- I like how m01kkk always has to state "as a left leaning guy..." yeah ok. okkona
- Europe isn't becoming the Middle East Robo. Islam isn't taking over. It's a backwards religion, like every other Abrahamic faith.PhanLo
- Robo's been watching and believing what Fox News tells him again.fadein11
- @kona. It's because everyone here thinks as soon as you don't completely agree with everything left = automatically right-wing or even alt right.********
- `Robo, please tell us how you are watching Europe in "real time". what news channels, youtube channels, blogs etc just a few examples will do.lowimpakt

"Historically, immigrants were given special rights to take Native land. If Trump says we are no longer a nation of immigrants, that has consequences"
- interesting as is a thought experiment. would make a good high school law essay.Gnash
- Timothy Snyder is brilliant. Big fan of his work.mandomafioso

- That Aunt Lydia joke on Sarah Fuckabee ... lolRamanisky2
- "Congratulations guys, it's like when a #metoo works out." HAHAHAHAHAnb
- "Trump is the one pussy you're not allowed to grab..."nbq
- “I don’t know what to call Sarah Huckabee Sanders, what’s Uncle Tom for white women who disappoint other white women?” lolwhatthefunk
- Oh the outrage! Suck it up Republitards.BusterBoy
- They panned her but she was "Rosanne style" funny...robotron3k
- Anything that makes Huckabee Sanders and Conway squirm is OK in my books.BusterBoy
- Burn.sofakingback
- why didn't trump attend? weak.inteliboy
- her delivery was shaky at times but overall not bad at all.renderedred
- Trump won’t attend another dinner where anyone can make fun of him to his face, like Obamacare did years ago. Hes still burr hurt about that.monospaced
- Everything Michelle said not only true, but also hilarious, proving this administration of hypocrites also has no sense of humor.monospaced

Always nice to see one of these awful fuckers get their comeuppance. Of course being sent to the back benches is nothing compared to the distress and hurt she and that witch of a Prime Minister have caused for so many people.
But I do wonder if Amber Rudd wishes she'd lost that recount on election night? Just a couple of hundred votes the other way and she could be at home now killing foxes, kicking orphans or what ever Tories do with their spare time.
- She didn't seem too bad compared to others in the cabinet - May certainly owes her a pint or two.Fax_Benson
- Well she was either a liar or incompetent (it's definitely liar btw), both of those make her unsuitable for that level of office and responsibility.Wolfboy
- Bluejam2
- I worked with a young man who loved all those guys. His anxiety was so bad, he'd have to be driven to the workshop. He was too scared to leave his front door...PhanLo
- but immigration was hurting him. He also wanted private health care (in the UK), even though three generations of his family were on NHS medicine.PhanLo
- He was quite intelligent and I enjoyed speaking with him. But I think the Youtube videos were his window into a world he knew nothing about.PhanLo
- Loving this turn Vic Burger has had, realised a ton of his subscribers watch this shit. now loosing them in swathes.kingsteven
- this vid is no different than the ones warning of the islamic take-over of europe. so much hyperbole.Gnash
- both sides need to take a holiday in the sunGnash
- Prosecutors in the Quebec Mosque shooting are taking a particular interest in Mr. Shapiro and his brand of internet fuckwittery.face_melter
- highlighting that domestic terrorists are directly influenced by household name american broadcasters. it's the same how exactly gnash?kingsteven
- vic burger has a huge following on youtube. in terms of target audience he's going to reach more kids with this than any traditional media.kingsteven
- it's the same level of hyperbole. grouping a bunch of curated sound bites together does not enlighten anyone.Gnash
- the other side of the spectrum does the same thing. they end up just talking to themselves. does nothing to change anyones thinking. just entrenches beliefsGnash
- I have no issue with making vids for the lolz and YT hits, but to suggest that they in any way further knowledge is pretty naive.Gnash
- whos ben shapiroCygnusZero4
- I get you Gnash, but within the context of the departure of tone from Vic Burger's usual work (he's chosen this style deliberately) for impact.kingsteven
- and within the context of the popularity of his channel, subversive nature of his content and age group of his viewers i think it's a really strong statement.kingsteven
- I'm not familiar enough with Vic's work to notice a difference, but that makes sense then -- that he's ripping the alt-right style for effect.Gnash
- hence why it seemed so similar!Gnash
- Bluejam5
- Clearly they should have booked Ben Shapiro to host the correspondent's dinner. That would have been hilarious.ben_
- It's good he can earn a living with that voice. Good for him. Poor guy.PhanLo
- whitest voice EVER. you can tell this clown is that guy who cowers whenever a black man is present. lmao little turdCygnusZero4
- @Cygnus hahaha. :-)PhanLo
- I thought shapiro was anti-snowflake? yeah until they joke about your pro-life views. what a hypocrite.inteliboy

I know Macron has a thing for older women, but he needs to hide it a bit better than this!

The SDNY is sitting on the mother lode of evidence and Rudy has given them the connection between purported legal fees and payments by Cohen to third parties.

"Ukip has confirmed its apparent slide into political irrelevance with a disastrous performance in the local elections in England, prompting a senior official to compare the party to the Black Death."

- they're taking the dead cat strategy too far nowFax_Benson

“My favorite meat is hot dog, by the way. That is my favorite meat,” he told a gathering of supporters as they joined him recently for a casual dinner organized by his campaign. “My second favorite meat is hamburger. And, everyone says, oh, don’t you prefer steak? It’s like, I know steaks are great, but I like hot dog best, and I like hamburger next best.”
If you're from the States, you know who this is immediately. lol

Melania Trump unveils her platform, tells kids to 'Be Best'
https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/07/p…One can only hope that Melania is using the hypocrisy of standing up against cyber bullying - when her husband unleashes the most vile and ignorant attacks on even his mildest critics - to draw even more attention to the disgraceful, hateful conduct of the President.
The only way any sane individual could take her seriously on this is if she included in her platform a denouncement of her husband’s inappropriate use of Twitter and his mouth to disparage others. It is almost unfathomable that she would choose this as her platform for activism. Every day feels like I’m reading fiction.
- maybe it's a subtle message to her husband. I would think she hates him more than all qbners combinedzaq
- lol!kona
- QBN logo contest, please.ben_
- you can't beat the logo she had behind her.capn_ron
- Rip of the day.
https://slate.com/ne…BusterBoy - Be best? Nobody had the heart to fix her broken English? What does that even mean? Not everyone can be the best. Maybe their own best.monospaced
- It's a shitty rip of Michelle Obama's "Be Better" speech from a few years ago, which worked.kona
- Be better works at least.monospaced
