To deal with troll, use picture. Will have to keep that in mind.
(PS, is it just me, or does that tiny popsicle make Mr. Trump's hands look Really small?)

So when is the best time to tune in?
7th-8th CET ?
The vote counting starts when?

They usually don't start announcing exit polls (which are typically pretty reliable indicators) until the polls have closed on the West Coast. So.. starting about 8pm -ish PST, and likely having a good indication within 2 hours or less, maybe 3 if the election is close.

Considering that the Attorney General Loretta Lynch has just plead the fifth, your chosen candidate is keeping some rarified company.

I already wrote this over at Alex Jones, I'll just c+p it here:

TRUTH RATING: FALSE
Ms. Lynch has not invoked her Fifth Amendment rights (this time). Senators Rubio and Pompeo wrote a letter to Ms. Lynch demanding that she answer questions regarding their inquiry into the Iran deal, during which they used the phrase "essentially pleading the fifth" as a figure of speech. Link to their letter: http://freebeacon.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/28OCT16-Letter-to-DoJ-re-Initial-Iran-Payment-Letter.pdf

Additionally, there's a pretty epic Trey Gowdy speech where he denies the validity of a previous instance of Ms. Lynch attempting to invoke the Fifth Amendment.

TL;DR: No she hasn't, Rubio and Pompeo were being asshats, but it'd behoove Ms. Lynch to answer their questions.

Duly Noted.

Thanks for the accurate information. I edited my post to reflect the mistake I made.

Other than a couple of recent videos that have really blown up, I haven't really followed Alex Jones. I don't normally use the DailyMail for a first or second source of information - but I've found it handy for getting a lot of details on big news items without rooting through a dozen news sources that all use the same abbreviated AP press release for more.

I hadn't previously noted that the DailyMail (which is definitely on the sensationalist side of journalism) to be factually incorrect on news I've run across there before. This isn't to say they haven't been wrong before. To me, they've always seemed more of a news aggregator that didn't try to save space by editing down, rather than a primary investigator of information.

I will have to add that site (DM) to the list of those that shoot from the hip too soon and occasionally miss the mark.




Oh - and I'd be remiss if I didn't post the latest Rabbit Wormhole (for fun):

Re: AI

"Does this affect our plans?"

Ironically, I had an error, too: Pompeo is a Representative, not a Senator; should have said "Congressmen." :P

You missed critical context in that email; the message was essentially

Does this effect our plans?

With Teddy right now! He thinks no but is going to look more closely and give us an answer. He thinks AI may be more 2020 than 2016.

Still spooky as fuck. Still DKIM verified.

Sir.

I have detected that this comment is going against the narrative we are paid to push.

Please redact this comment and post a new one.

Both candidates are inarguably garbage.

An example of the left attacking freedom of speech. TL;DR: They are saying a difference of opinion is fine, but disagreeing on the facts isn't.

Regarding the Internet: "We are going to have to rebuild within this wild-wild-west-of-information flow some sort of curating function that people agree to... There has to be, I think, some sort of way in which we can sort through information that passes some basic truthiness tests and those that we have to discard, because they just don't have any basis in anything that's actually happening in the world."
— President Barack Obama, 13 Oct 2016

That's the President saying the internet needs (democratically controlled) censorship. Covered by InfoWars? Nope.

And Trump is a racist.
