Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party wins Canada’s election. (https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/10/21/20926201/canada-election-results-2019-justin-trudeau-wins)

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party has won the 2019 Canadian federal election, according to a projection from the Canadian Broadcasting Company. While the Liberals lost seats in parliament, controlling only a plurality of seats rather than an outright majority, they still have enough to keep control of government.

President Trump compares impeachment inquiry to 'lynching.' (https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-impeachment-lynching-twitter-republicans-ukraine-scandal-inquiry-a9166251.html)

Trump has compared the impeachment process against him to being lynched in an incendiary tweet that sparked outcry on Tuesday morning. “So some day, if a Democrat becomes President and the Republicans win the House, even by a tiny margin, they can impeach the President, without due process or fairness or any legal rights,” the president wrote. “All Republicans must remember what they are witnessing here – a lynching.”

[Horza]

Update: White House says Trump’s ‘lynching’ tweet unrelated to ‘dark times’ for African Americans. (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-impeachment-inquiry-live-updates/2019/10/22/40959fb0-f454-11e9-ad8b-85e2aa00b5ce_story.html)

White House spokesman Hogan Gidley insisted that Trump’s reference to lynching was not comparing his treatment during the impeachment process to what happened to African Americans in the South during “dark times” in U.S. history.

It also further desensitizes the target audience. That was for the alt-right folks and especially the younger set who grew up on the internet. The race-baiting has been dude's bread and butter since well before he took office. It is pretty obvious that SHOCK AND OUTRAGE will happen.

There is a plus side to it, and it has been a slow-mover until somewhat recently: The more progressive of the GOP are beginning to peel away from the mob. Unfortunately though, it does play into the white supremacy groups who have been grooming young people for quite a while now.

Trump's top Ukraine envoy testifies about deep-seated push for Ukraine quid pro quo. (https://www.politico.com/news/2019/10/22/william-taylor-ukraine-testimony-trump-054259)

Taylor’s statement described “how pervasive the efforts were” among Trump's allies to convince Ukrainian officials to launch an investigation targeting former Vice President Joe Biden and another probe centering on a debunked conspiracy theory regarding the 2016 election.

Taylor also described the extent to which military assistance to Ukraine and a potential White House meeting with Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart were tied to those investigations, the source added.

Many Republicans are done trying to defend President Trump after he said he was the victim of a lynching. (https://www.politico.com/news/2019/10/22/congress-reaction-trump-lynching-tweet-054387)

"That's not the language I would use," said House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.). “I don't agree with that language, pretty simple."

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) also expressed his disapproval. "Given the history of this in our country, I would not compare it to a lynching," he told reporters. "That was an unfortunate choice of words."

“Inappropriate. That’s not appropriate in any context,” said Senate Majority Whip John Thune (R-S.D.).

Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) called on Trump to delete the tweet. “We can all disagree on the process, and argue merits. But never should we use terms like 'lynching' here. The painful scourge in our history has no comparison to politics, and @realDonaldTrump should retract this immediately.”

Tulsi Gabbard is getting a boost from right-wing conservatives online. (https://www.axios.com/tulsi-gabbard-right-wing-conservative-social-media-boost-7fc331ea-842f-4dca-9c3f-047d00ba24b9.html)

Gabbard went from receiving 162,500 mentions across many social platforms measured (Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Reddit, Gab, 4Chan) in the first week of October to over 338,000 between Oct. 8 and 15. Comments by Gabbard condemning members of her own party have garnered her lots of attention from far-right figures, which explains some of the increased attention she is receiving on platforms like Reddit, 4chan and Gab.

"First of all let, me make this clear: I do not agree with many of the things Tulsi Gabbard stands for or espouses, but I give credit where credit is due," said Fox News host Tomi Lahren. (https://www.foxnews.com/media/tulsi-gabbard-hillary-clinton-russian-asset-biden-warren)

Fair question.

The way I experience the word 'lynch' just means 'being unfairly admonished by a group of others'. Thats trivial. But for someone to argue "when you said, 'you were being unfairly admonished by a group of others' you were implying 'your persecution is worse than a bunch of mob murdered black men'" then to me it looks like its the second person who is projecting the racism into the first speaker's words.

But now its been explained to me that the phrase 'lynch' isn't used as a trivialised figure of speech in the states I can see I lost something 'in translation'.

Trump used a poor choice of words by calling it a "lynching". "Anal impalement" would have been a more accurate term, on many levels.

He’s not being persecuted. He’s being prosecuted. There’s a difference, namely the act of withholding aid to Ukraine based on a personal vendetta against an opposing political candidate. We aren’t Hungary; a nascent democracy backsliding because of an ass hole populist. We are the nation that ended Communism, the nazis, ISIS, and have done more to eradicate disease, global poverty, and other melanic bull shit shit than any other country in human history.

He might actually be that dumb though. He might not understand the racial overtones. I honestly don’t know. I think it’s more in line with his “witch hunt” type of thinking than outright racism. He thinks he’s a god and if anyone pushes back against him their criticism is illegitimate. This is why I voted republican for so long, because if you tell poor people to raise their sons and stop selling drugs, they cry “you’re mean.” It’s very weird for me that republicans became this way. I’m contemplating a run as a third party candidate on a platform of killing anyone who complains or frowns in public

House Republicans stormed a closed-door hearing Wednesday morning to protest Democrats' impeachment inquiry process, breaking up the deposition of a top Defense Department who was testifying about President Trump's dealings with Ukraine. Dozens of Republicans, including some members of leadership, barged into the secure hearing room in the Capitol basement where Laura Cooper, the deputy assistant secretary of defense for Russia, Ukraine and Eurasia, was set to provide private testimony.

Yes, pure coincidence that the Administration brings on a new Attorney General (Who has written his opinion that the President cannot be charged with anything), who immediately brings the investigation to a close, preempts the release with his own summary that is inaccurate, and then sits on the investigators to make sure that they can't explain themselves. The one peep we do manage to get out from under Barr's fat ass is that the investigators found evidence, but the congress would have to impeach to bring it to fruition because the DoJ won't let them. Guess what's happening now?

The Manhattan DA subpoenaed eight years of Trump’s tax returns from his accounting firm, Mazars USA, as part of a probe into hush money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels in exchange for her silence about an alleged sexual encounter with Trump.

Federal Judge Victor Marrero threw out Trump’s suit seeking to block the subpoena, finding his “extraordinary” claim to be immune from criminal investigation was not supported by the law.

The August exchange between Bolton and Lighthizer over the trade matter represents the first indication that the administration’s suspension of assistance to Ukraine extended beyond the congressionally authorized military aid and security assistance to other government programs.

They want to pay people low wages but expect professional performance. I'll never understand this logic.

Another example is UPS drivers now have trackers on their trucks that detect how long they're away from their truck. So if they're not back to their truck by a certain time they get in trouble.

Yeah corporations bottom line don't care about the employee. :(

My son was a nurse before he was a CRNA. He got reprimanded for pushing a female coworker, who pushed him first, by a manager who was watching camera footage on the unit. They were messing around and joking about a fat patient apparently, but this entire interaction took maybe 30 seconds and yeah, I guess someone is watching footage 24/7

As an aside, I’ve never understood how I, as an engineer, made / make more than nurses and teachers. Seems to me that nursing should be one of the most lucrative professions

Armenian genocide resolution could soon pass House. (https://news.yahoo.com/in-rebuke-of-erdogan-armenian-genocide-resolution-could-soon-pass-house-141938175.html)

As soon as next week, Democrats could ratify a measure recognizing the Armenian genocide, moving it out of committee and to the chamber floor, where it is likely to pass. Though lawmakers have long promised a resolution recognizing the Armenian genocide, they have been hampered by Turkey’s role as a critical ally whose significance has only increased with the rise of violent extremism across the Middle East.

The Republican Party isn’t supposed to be a cult of personality. It’s supposed to resist whining pussies who believe they are entitled to wealth that they haven’t earned. Somehow, this has been reversed and now trump is allowed to break the law, embarrass America, and I’m supposed to be excited. If I were born in this country, I’d honestly consider a run

If you have generated more wealth than you were given, you have generated wealth. I know plenty of people that have had a mentor that invested into them heavily and it paid off. The republican party is the supposed to be the freedom party. Freedom to express yourself financially, ethically, and any other way you can think of.

Your civil rights have been violated for quite some time regardless of the party and been orchestrated illegally. Don't think it's a left or right thing. I think it is you who has reversed and fed into some of the propaganda. Only one party advocating gun control. Only one party advocating social stimulus or forced healthcare. Only one party whining about social status and racial division constantly. I'll let you guess who that party is.

The thread already speaks for itself. If you were to count up the Republicans that have popped in (multiple different people of 20 or more) vs the same vocal majority of the left that has reposted page after page. Literally like 4 pages back it was all leftists arguing amongst each other.

If you do research, you'll realize that even in most games, Trump is a reoccurring meme to the younger generation as a way to say fuck you to people like Horza, troll or not.

Beto sank himself through some stupid desperation comments(Guy went way too far for my tastes and most Texas center/center-left in general), but it's still just a matter of time. Austin-San Antonio-Dallas(not FW)-Houston-El Paso is really all that is needed to flip the state given another 5-10 years of immigration and education. Small town Texas is currently withering on the vine.

I've been to/through the majority of towns over 2k or so people in this state at this point thanks to my work and it's just sad what's happening as these places collapse in on themselves. Meanwhile the major cities are undergoing major population booms that are overwhelmingly Dem favored and the valley is growing with a vastly hispanic majority. Not hard to see where it goes from here. It's funny because Hispanics are imo a natural voter base for conservative ideals, but the Reps just won't stop poking them in the eye.

I think the GOP could buy themselves some time in Texas by legalizing at least medicinal pot here, getting rid of the real loonies like Paxton etc and not bending the knee to the Evangelical puritan lobby that has them by the stones, but they won't. So when the dam breaks, it's gonna be a flood.

I think you'd be surprised at how many hispanic's vote Trump. Some of the most republican people I've met were either black or hispanic.

I'd counter with liberal policies have ruined Texas and most people realize that. I'm from Austin. I'm sure you've heard that we now allow the homeless to set up camp under the bridges here. They are lined with drugs, tents, trash and there was a murder at the camp last weekend near the highway down the road. People complain about it every day at work and even people from the left are contemplating voting right just to clean it up.

There are a ton of gun owners in Texas. Behind IL for NCIS checks, Texas is number 2. Texas is really number 1 because in IL you must apply for a NCIS check every time you are stopped by the police and a carry holder. When you openly have people advocating for bans on weapons when 5% of the state has concealed licenses, that's not including people who never apply for CHL (probably 30-40%). Take that and the recent video from the hispanic sheriff in El Paso telling people Beto and the likes are dumbasses.

Democrats need a worthy candidate first. Hillary was atleast able to prime herself for the position and the DNC went all in. They aren't going all in on someone this year and every democrat is so split due to the identity politics, it will scare off voters who are always Gabbard, always Beto, always Bernie, always Biden, always Warren and so on and so on.

I am also from Austin and I won't disagree with you that the Californian takeover of the city has caused some real problems (I had to do some work on 6th during Pecan Street - it was wretched). I'm not a Republican (although I voted Kasich happily last primary season) but I'm also no fan of the cali coup. Unfortunately there isn't really a good candidate for where I stand - Beto was alrightish enough to support (Because I really cannot stand Ted Cruz, the man is a snake) but he drove himself over the cliff for strange reasons trying to go for President.

With that said, Hispanics/Blacks for Trump are basically just a very, very outspoken tiny minority. And a lot of the Hispanics in my experience will do it just to play up their 'One of the Guys' factor to try and mix in with their white contemporaries - this is usually the 40-50 year old age bracket, and also seems to often coincide with a concept of them needing to fall in with the herd or be driven off. I can sympathize with those people, but they're far from a majority.

You're definitely right about the candidate - none of these will do it. But I didn't expect them to anyways, that's why I say 5-10 years out. But eventually the choice is going to come down to a referendum on the evangelical grip on the state and that's going to pop Texas blue IMO.

Agreed but the definition of a mandatory buyback is crazy and what poked the sheriff in El Paso to say, that's stupid and there were more defensive uses of firearms than offensive crimes committed with firearms. Also pointed out that going door to door would cause more issues than good.

It's hard to define a buyback if it isn't mandatory otherwise you'll get results like you did in New Zealand where only 10% were obtained, which out of 400 million guns here isn't really a dent.

Not to mention they are attempting to buyback your gun with your own taxpaying money is just stupid.

If I remember right, the reason the New Zealand buyback failed is because they offered hilariously small amounts for the weapons, almost pennies on the dollar. I would bet that if, and it's an incredible if, something like that happened in the States the dollar value offered per weapon would be stupid high. But honestly I don't see us progressing past a database/mandatory background checks.

In more positive news, Mexico is about to go full recreational marijuana. I'm hoping that ends up being as major of a blow to the cartels as everyone hopes it is.

That wouldn't help with the loophole of where people are creating homemade weapons and using the government to buyback 3D printed lowers or 80% lower, home-made guns, I mean if you are buying back guns, I've got about 300 3D printed lowers or 80% lowers they can buy.

[BallzDeep]

How am I advocating for violence? You're the idiot that would resist the legal buyback of your illegal firearms.

It would violate the second amendment. Never said I would resist, said I wouldn't give them. That doesn't disclose anything, you're just the dumbass that made the leap because you are advocating a violent outcome.

You realize that Chicago has a 30% murder solve rate. The El Paso sheriff said anyone in the state of Texas would be fired with the 30% solve rate. The reason why it's 30% is because no one has faith in the police. They believe that 12,000 officers cant control around 3 million people. People who can defend themselves and not have to worry about being shot when they can't own a gun, is a problem. They get scared to go to the police. Hope this clears up any confusion you might have because if it was anti-gun America, I don't see you as a guy standing up for yourself against someone with an illegal gun.

So yeah, I'd say standing up for civil rights is important just as it was when slavery was a thing, the civil rights movement was a thing and so on. Your the backwards idiot claiming it's okay to violate peoples right, even if they aren't a criminal and use violence to do so.

3D Printed guns are a whole other ballgame and will take a completely different set of legislation - but probably 10 years after regular gun control so that we have enough legislators who actually understand what 3D printers are.

I wouldn't be surprised if they became highly illegal however.
