All they are doing is making a martyr out of him. They must know this and you should be concerned about that.
I can't tell if these people are fucking stupid, or if they are clever, and the general public is stupid. Time will tell.
They think they're "sending a message", but people will understand the real message is not "don't mess with us", and is instead "next time don't bother with words or requests, just go all the way because they've made it clear that this is war".

These people are arrogant and stupid. Look at the overcharging of that Rhoades guy in J6 sham trials. They think they're "sending a message", but people will understand the real message is not "don't mess with us", and is instead "next time don't bother with words or requests, just go all the way because they've made it clear that this is war".
This man isn’t the sort of candidate you’d vote for lightly. Trump’s voters meant it. It’s hard to see his support as anything less than a gesture of supreme repudiation, the political assertion of an insurgent and highly mobilized public reacting to a stifling left-wing orthodoxy intent on either erasing or replacing everything from merit and our shared sense of history to free speech and biological dimorphism, essentially rebuilding Western thought from first principles while racializing everything. In the face of such idiocy, many Americans rightly balked. “Make America Great Again” was just as much about nostalgia and stopping the Left from bulldozing the country as it was a call to sweep away the ruling order. ...
I don’t think 2016 should have been as shocking as it was made out to be. In many ways it was unexceptional; the U.S. was following in the footsteps of other countries during the same time period. The populist movement driven by white working and middle classes in America joined its counterpart in Great Britain, with the Brexit vote; Marine Le Pen’s Front National, in France; and the Alternative für Deutschland party, which threatened Angela Merkel’s centrist coalition in Germany. One way or another, they all represented a reaction against globalism and elite rule. (Note by Patrick - against The Empire) ...
For starters, it certainly helped that the Clinton campaign was entirely comprised of educationalist elites who had no idea how to talk to the wider American public, and who had no desire to make any overtures to the white working class. These hyper-educated morons believed big data was more important than public opinion and common sense. An algorithm nicknamed “Ada” was said to play a role in virtually every strategic decision Clinton aides made. Clearly, this computer algorithm, which “the campaign was prepared to publicly unveil after the election as its invisible guiding hand,” was a proxy for the public as the elites wished it to be rather than the grotesque, unclean masses. ...
Somewhat luckily, he stepped right into an institutional vacuum, using Twitter to bypass the traditional gatekeepers of information and communicate directly with the public. Ever media savvy, the Bad Orange Man w/ Mean Tweets knew that as “a peacock among the dull buzzards of American politics,” he could elevate himself above opponents. At one point in The Art of the Deal, Trump states:
One thing I’ve learned about the press is that they’re always hungry for a good story, and the more sensational the better . . . The point is that if you are a little different, or a little outrageous, or if you do things that are bold or controversial, the press is going to write about you.
Trump remains a master manipulator of sensationalist air time. Despite his campaign spending far less money on advertising than Clinton or his Republican opponents, he received far more media coverage. There’s no doubt that this will be the case again in ‘24. On May 25, MSNBC and CNN mentioned Trump 399 times between 6:00 AM - 4:00 PM. ...
Reflecting on the reaction to Trump’s win is instructive, if only because it underscores how forces on the Left turned morality-injected mainstream media coverage into an exercise in doctrinal enforcement. When Trump won in 2016, they insisted that he had subverted the election with Russian help. When he lost in 2020, the electoral process miraculously regained its vestal purity. But if he wins in 2024, we can expect his victory to be once again attributed to any number of malevolent forces Extremely Dangerous to Our Democracy™, and for the ruling class to withdraw into another defensive crouch...
The flurry of media content on this subject matter is easy to explain. If fake news had tricked the ignorant masses into electing Trump, and if shadowy Russians were behind this deluge of fake news, then the mainstream press and ruling class were in effect absolved from doing any soul-searching or critical thinking. ...
The elites and their Democratic handmaidens were obsessed with cancelling the 2016 election results, and, much like today, desperately wanted the pre-Trump status quo back. They were willing to sacrifice their own standards to try and make it happen, abandoning any pretense of serving the entire country. ...
Needless to say, this does not portend well. For those who convince themselves that they’re not up against normal political opponents but Literal Fascism™ led by Hitler 2.0 — which it’s no exaggeration to say is a core tenet of contemporary Democratic party politics — then it is not only expected but even rational to embrace authoritarian tactics to stave off this existential threat. Political parties that don’t believe they can win the old-fashioned way will seek to criminalize their adversaries, as criminality renders justifiable any subsequent acts of repression.
And if that doesn't work? Use your imagination. “Democracy is on the ballot” = It’s okay to cheat because the ends justify the means. This includes the “pre-cheating” that the Left boasts about as “election fortification,” i.e. changing the rules in advance in ways that favor Democrats and hurt Republicans, especially in swing states. But these people who’re absolutely convinced that Trump presents an unprecedented Danger to the Republic™—you know as well as I do that they wouldn’t have a problem looking the other way as a few boxes of ballots fell off some trucks near vote-counting headquarters. Americans would never know the difference. It’d be a repeat of 2020: On election night it’ll look like Trump has won, and then overnight the close states will tip to Biden as all the mail-in ballots are “counted.” ...
And we haven’t even mentioned the FBI, which for all intents and purposes has become a rogue agency whose fidelity extends only to the port side of the political spectrum. The Bureau has interfered in the last two elections in very serious, consequential ways. You think they won’t meddle in the 2024 election if Trump is the Republican nominee? That they’ve been properly chastened by the Durham report and will no longer operate as if their counterintelligence remit extends to “election integrity”? That they won’t subvert democracy to “save” it?
It truly should not matter whether you’re a Democrat or a Republican: What we know about the extent to which the FBI has interfered in the previous two elections should be concerning, to put it mildly. This kind of stuff really is extremely dangerous to democracy. But the point I’m trying to make is that if you don’t believe that powerful figures might intervene to stop Trump from becoming president again, you’re high.
Be very careful in underestimating your enemy. Don't just think "oh, these people are STUPID" - why do you think that? We don't know what they are attempting to do. MAYBE they are trying to set us up to literally be the 4th Reich. We're kind of there in a lot of ways anyhow.
The HuffPo/Fartbook/Alphabet people don't know any hardship worse than Sushi Wah being closed early or the Cafeteria running out of Acai Berry Drink. And frankly, many of the officer class in the military and most Mid-Senior Admin people.
Want to know, at least in part, what ACTUALLY happened in WWII? Listen to David Irving. The only people worth listening to are banned, and not all banned people are worth listening to either. Alex Jones is banned, he's worthless.
Back in the 70s, he supported the EU and said Der Juden were against the EU since Jews were suspicious of a "Master Race" arising from a united Europe. Decades later, "Corbyn is a very fine man" in reaction to his anti-Israel stances. He was anti-semitic long before he began his "Holocaust Research"
That's why I hate whenever these guys are deplatformed. Their bullshit is usually exterminated faster than a Polish Village after an Einsatzgruppen Death Squad
It's important to listen to extremes, but it's also important to realize they aren't correct just because they oppose the general census, either.
It's pretty simple - if you're not allowed to discuss it, it's because you're over the target
My experience is that only lies are protected with censorship, not the truth. Truth doesn't need any protection.

Many cranks claim to be totally censored - and they might be in some places and some times, but not all of them - the real reason is they get their clock cleaned when their claims are held up to scrutiny. So they pretend to be truth martyrs. Seen this over my life for decades on many subjects.
Again, you claimed Irving was "anti-Semitic" - can you show this not by what people CLAIM he has said, but by what he's said?
That's exactly what GIYUS and Zionists in general are like. They are complete bullies, they will try to intimidate you, they will even physically attack you. They want to shut you up, they don't even want to entertain MAYBE what they are doing is gravely immoral.
What's diesel exhaust?
2.16: Fumes from a diesel engine are not toxic enough to kill people.
(This claim is made with regard to the death camp of Treblinka – see file with ruling of German courts on this. In other death camps, gasoline engines were used. The method of killing was simple – people were crammed into the gas chambers, and the exhaust of powerful engines was pumped into them).
Nonsense. In a closed chamber, of course diesel fumes will kill. There was actually a study on this, and its results are reported in “The Toxicity of Fumes from a Diesel Engine Under Four Different Running Conditions”, by Pattle et al., British Journal of Industrial Medicine, 1957, Vol 14, p. 47-55. These researchers ran a few experiments in which various animals were exposed to diesel fumes, and studied the results.
In the experiments, the exhaust of a small diesel engine (568 cc, 6 BHP) was connected to a chamber 10 cubic meters (340 cubic feet) in volume, and the animals were put inside it. In all cases, the animals died. Death was swifter when the intake of air to the engine was restricted, as this causes a large increase in the amount of carbon monoxide (CO) that is emitted. (See, for instance, “diesel Engine Reference Book”, by Lilly, 1985, p. 18/8, where it is stated that at a high air/fuel ratio the concentration of CO is only a few parts per million but for lower ratios (25:1) the concentration of CO can rise up to 3,000 ppm. It is very easy to restrict the air intake; the British researchers did so by partially covering the air intake opening with a piece of metal.)
Even in cases where the CO output was low, the animals still died from other toxic components – mainly irritants and nitrogen dioxide.
Now, the diesel engines used in Treblinka were much larger – they belonged to captured Soviet T-34 tanks. These tanks weighed 26-31 tons (depending on the model) and had a 500 BHP engine (compared to a mere 6 BHP in the British experiments). The volume of the extermination chambers in Treblinka is, of course, a factor. But the chambers’ volume was about 60 cubic meters (2040 cubic feet); this is 6 times more than those in the British experiments, but the difference in the size of the engines is much larger than a factor of 6.
It should be remembered that what matters in CO poisoning is not the concentration of CO, but the ratio of CO to oxygen. In a small room, crammed full of people, oxygen levels drop quickly, thus making death by CO poisoning faster. As noted, other toxic components in the fumes further accelerate mortality.
The SS was aware of the fact that cramming as many people as possible into the gas chamber, thus leaving no empty spaces, would accelerate mortality. This is evident, for instance, from a letter regarding “gassing vans” (used in the Chelmno extermination camp and other locations) sent to SS-Obersturmbannfuehrer Walter Rauff, 5 June 1942. The letter is quite long (more of it is reproduced in the file of original Nazi documents), but here is the relevant part (Nazism, document 913).
“2) The vans are normally loaded with 9-10 people per square meter. With the large Saurer special vans this is not possible because although they do not become overloaded their maneuverability is much impaired. A reduction in the load area appears desirable. It can be achieved by reducing the size of the van by c. 1 meter. The difficulty referred to cannot be overcome by reducing the size of the load. For a reduction in the numbers will necessitate longer period of operation because the free spaces will have to be filled with CO. By contrast, a smaller load area which is completely full requires a much shorter period of operation since there are no free spaces.”
Another gruesome testimony to the “science of gassing” developed by the SS is the letter from Dr August Becker to SS-Obersturmbannfuehrer Rauff, 16 May 1942 (Nazi Conspiracy, 418)
“The application of the gas is not undertaken correctly. In order to come to an end as fast as possible, the driver presses the accelerator to the fullest extent. By doing that the persons to be executed suffer death from suffocation and not death by dozing off as was planned. My directions have now proved that by correct adjustment of the levers death comes faster and the prisoners fall asleep peacefully. Distorted faces and excretions, such as could be seen before, are no longer noticed”.
If you can show extraordinary evidence that Irving isn't a lifelong Hitler Apologist and Anti-Semite, I'd be happy to listen.
Irving is free to publish, sell, debate, etc. in the USA and elsewhere.
All Liberation Groups behave that way.
You know as well as I do you can't prove a negative.
Happy USS Liberty day - by the way, it was yesterday.
They do this ALL THE TIME. GIYUS is nothing more than an Israeli government program to prevent ANY criticism of Israel, no matter WHAT they do.
Like when Rachael Corrie
Yes, but I need to be arsed to discover more.
The old "Muh Hitler dindu nuffin wrong" has been debunked countless times.
For example, the badge removal during the Beer Hall Pusch Days; Irving completely twisted the original sources to be what it wasn't - Hitler WANTED party members to wear their badges when socialistically terrorizing private property. Irving makes it sound like Hitler punished somebody for behaving like an Antifa rioter.
Let me know when you have evidence, not utterly unbacked speculation of a non-accidental motive.
The USS Liberty was more than a half-century ago, before Disco, before Nixon, before the VCR.
What college did Rachel Corrie attend?
Was she standing up or lying down?
Was Rachel Corie a humanitarian, or a useful idiot Socialist, the same kind who claim Maduro was duly elected?
Don't make a claim you cannot support.
OK, source?
The motive has beengivenasserted or speculated upon several times, to draw the US into a war against Egypt by framing Egypt for the attack.
Yeah. So what. The Holocaust was more than 75 years ago, before Israel existd, before Rock and Roll, before Eisenhower, before Civil Rights, before desegregation, before Elvis, before Count Folke Bernadotte was murdered by order of Yitzhak Shamir when he was one of the triumvirate of Lehi. I guess we can just forget about then. Finally!
Who cares? Was she purposely killed or not? Again, we couldn't find out because of GIYUS twats. You aren't allowed to discuss anything Israel does, unless you do it in secret. I'm not kidding either.
It's to protect...
(FILL IN THE BLANK)
The most absurd thing is the Presidential Records Act has no crimnal penalty in it..
There's no way they can charge Trump with violating the Espionage Act, which is entirely different.
This is really a dumb move by Biden/DOJ to slow down political opponent while having similar documents with Biden (perhaps Obama/Bush/Clinton etc).
It's to protect...
(FILL IN THE BLANK)
Let's do that : with suspicions of USS Liberty motives, and assertions that Epstein worked for Mossad.
Is anyone else just getting numb to this shit?
There are legit incriminating things from past presidents and others.
at this point I think the witch hunt is just a waste of time.
Fact is the Dems need to find an actual candidate
Covid is over. I don't think mail in ballots will be as much this time around.
The Dems don’t need a candidate, As long as they have a RINO/Trojan horse globalist schill like DeSantis or Chris Christie they win even if they lose.
Here you go: The content creator compares Irving's claims to the Primary Source Material, and finds Irving added and distorted what was reported, per Evans, who testified for the Defense at Irving vs. Penguin Books. Irving lost, by the way, with the Court deciding it was reasonable to call him a Holocaust Denier.
https://youtu.be/VsLW7VrOpA8?t=39
Walks viewer right through it, and asks the viewer to note the claims being made by Irving, and then compares them to the quotes made by participant of the event in question.
Fact is the Dems need to find an actual candidate.

The Wall Street Journal reported that the grand jury is part of the investigation conducted by special counsel Jack Smith. It's separate from a Washington, D.C. grand jury that's been hearing testimony in the documents case.
People close to the investigation said Smith was trying to tie up loose ends before a possible indictment.
NBC News confirmed that a grand jury was meeting in Florida.
"Why prosecutors are using multiple grand juries, and whether they are ready to seek an indictment in either jurisdiction is unknown," the NBC News report noted. "The Justice Department declined to comment on the investigation."
On Monday, attorneys for Trump met with officials at the Department of Justice to argue he should not be indicted.
