yea she pisses the dipshits like him off because she's, ya know, an actual Communist and not some white 'comrade' cosplayer and talks about the history of the movement especially in her part of the world and all.

Also isn't she the one Vaush told that her family getting bombed by the US proved the US was 'superior' or something?

Vaush exists to bring in impressionable young people, push himself as a "leftist" and then attack anyone who is doing any real work or anything good. He's 100% paid to discredit the left.

Also I'm sure having access to very young adults or underage kids is just like a fringe benefit for him.

because he literally constantly inserts himself into anything he can and has a large audience of faux-left freaks who defend him to the death. Like, you can just say 'I don't really do Twitch poo poo who is this' and that's fine but this is 'a thing' constantly because this big human wrecking ball constantly dives into any leftist discourse to be all 'ACTUALLY MARX WOULD HAVE VOTED BIDEN YOU STUPID loving ASIAN SLUT' and a horde of pasty perverts follows suit.

the very first time i heard of this vaush guy it was for being an idiot and every single time since that he’s appeared on my twitter timeline it’s someone going “look at the dumb poo poo this clown said” it’s funny to learn he has a massive twitch fan following and debates people online because he has never in my experience appeared to have a good point

it is funny (in an infuriating way) that their excuses shifted from “we can do good things as soon as we beat the orange man!” to “we can do good things as soon as we beat the turtle man!” to “well gosh if only we had decisively beaten the manchin man last year oh well hands are tied until at least 2022 at this rate” and their shitlib stans diligently switched over to parroting each new excuse

personally if someone constantly changes their reasons for not doing the job i ostensibly paid them for i start to think i’m being played for a sucker, i guess liberals think they’re too smart for that

If we believe the assertions in the article that people within CBP staged the "migrants crossing the border" video then I really don't think it's a bridge too far to assume that the photos from inside the facility could be similarly staged- all it takes is some rear end in a top hat with a badge shouting at scared people that they need to gather up in a place and then snapping a quick photo of it. None of that is to excuse the existence of the facility in the first place, the resistance to letting press or elected officials into the space, or any of the other steps that led to this point, but the answer to the question of "would someone really stage something like this?" is a resounding "YES!", so trying to frame people asking for you to wait a day or two for a deeper dive on the photos (or for the questions at the Thursday conference) before you internalize the photos as the unassailable truth of the matter really is not that much to ask. They disbanded ACORN with similar bullshit, they have pulled like 5 similar scams with Planned Parenthood and such and got caught out doing it in the intervening years, there is absolutely NO reason to take the equivalent of a Fwd:Fwd:Fwd email as the truth.

I understand the urge to change things RIGHT NOW, especially when there is so much bad poo poo happening at once, but there are only so many hours in the day and fixing the problem requires contract to be signed and money to be distributed and documentation of the reason for firing the people responsible, it was never going to get done in the amount of time that we want it to be. Just as Trump couldn't fire the whole EPA or DoJ, Biden can't fire the whole CBP or ICE, the rules apply whether they are defending good people or bad. The statements going out are certainly discouraging, but the statements going out about the stimulus bill were also discouraging, and then it passed with no cuts to the total dollar amount, so let's give it to the end of the month, just like we gave the stimulus bill until the second week of March, and if nothing has happened by then myself and at least one or two other posters have stated that we will flip our outrage switches right along with you - it's not some unknowable length of time where we just have to "wait and see", it is one more week.
