So this guy got banned yesterday after 18 years on freep for speaking a little too much truth.

quote:

To: Pearls Before Swine
He was in business with Roger Stone and he worked with Trump for nearly thirty years. He's been in business with unsavory tyrants all over the world. Many of them laundered money through New York City. There is a great deal of suspicion that up to 1600 apartment owned by Trump were used to launder Russian mafia money. Mueller most likely can get Manafort to give him Roger Stone. Stone is suspected of being the go between for Wikileaks/Putin(the GRU)/Team Trump for the hacked emails and information used to target certain voters. Remember, we're in a place where Trumpian propaganda and talk show hosts presenting sophistries no longer matter. Attacking others as Never Trumpers when you hear things you don't want to hear doesn't work in courts. Witches are going on the endangered species list. For Mueller, there are these felony convictions: 1) Mike Flynn 2) George Papadopoulos 3) Rick Gates 4) Michael Cohen 5) Paul Manafort.
Principled and thoughtful conservatives must ask themselves these questions. Why did we trust Trump? Why didn't we see that he had a sordid biography? Why did we decide that character did not matter? Why do we still pretend that everything is fine?

Trump's pick of Manafort was identified immediately as a dangerous act. None of this was unforeseeable. We need to see with our eyes and act like the truth still matters. Or allow Trump to ruin the conservative movement. The rule of law still matters. Trump's tweets won't save him.

From this manafort thread:

https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3687560/posts?q=1&;page=1

e: Apparently freep had it's own Lewinsky QAnon

quote:

To: JME_FAN
“Who was ‘Quidam’ at FreeRepublic..?”

I remember when the total number of different threads at FR over the course of an average day was maybe just 20 or 30:

FreeRepublic really, really started pulling into high gear during the Monica Lewinsky imbroglio; we gained very many new members and Drudge linked to us (though the link was pulled a number of times, usually for understandable reasons).

People were marveling the way that Monica was for MONTHS still a story embargoed by the MSM and that 95% of the American public had never heard of her at all.

Here at FR we had scores of Monica experts; her personal phone number was even posted here, and many called it, just to hear her voice.

A guy calling himself Quidam, claiming to be a DC insider, made numerous cryptic promises about the future course of the Monica Matter:

Quidam said “The Grey Suits are about the walk up that hill..!”

The implication was that important DC people were going to talk to Bill, and he was going to have to resign.

Quidam had many adherants here at FR, and they were very emotional about his (her?) many pronouncements.

You just re-arrange a few things and the Quidam story mostly works for Q, as now.

Oh, of course there is the small matter of WJC never resigning from office, of course.

When nothing he said came true, Quidam simply disappeared.

Freep has a very definite caste system based on reg date deciding what an individual Freeper is allowed to get away with. Freepers with pre-9/11 reg dates are more or less immune to mod action unless they do something beyond the pale like blaspheming the Golden One.

For content have Freepers making GBS threads their pants in rage over an Oil Industry PR stunt on Climate Change.

Rex Tillerson of Exxon fame was a big oil guy. What changed him was Exxon's acquisition of a huge portfolio of natural gas resources which Exxon pretty much just lucked into.

Tillerson figured that "global warming" was a good way to market natural gas. So overnight Tillerson went over to the other side and became a "global warming greenie". It was cynical as hell. It was a marketing ploy to peddle natural gas.

Freep is pretty more insufferable than ever because every 4th or 5th post is either about kavanaugh or ford and holy poo poo are they pissy.

I think I need to take a break until something else actually happens, they are 'slut shaming' pretty good in almost every thread.
