The surprising thing is that people would fly in a private plane with or eat the same food as someone who publicly went against Putin a few weeks ago.

Apparently a bunch of Wagner leadership was on board, including Dmitri "Wagner" Utkin, Prigo's #2 and the guy who allegedly founded Wagner in the first place. Utkin has the distinction of looking more like a nazi than anyone besides Goebbels.

Fox plans to digitally insert Trump into the Republican debate tonight. They are going to play statements and video clips by Trump, ask the other candidates to respond, and play clips of Trump criticizing the other candidates as "rebuttal" responses after they answer questions. https://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/1694383289480393026 quote:Donald Trump, the Republican 2024 frontrunner and quadruply indicted former president, will show up during Wednesday night’s GOP presidential primary debate—but there’s a catch.

I hope it works out as well as that time they were going to have Clint Eastwood hector and berate a hologram of Obama but the tech failed so he just yelled at an empty chair for like an hour.

Doug Burgum has also reportedly tore a tendon during a basketball game and can't stand. It's not clear how this is going to impact his participation in the debate. Edit: He says he's not sure if he will participate or not. But, if he does, then he won't take any pain meds that could alter his "cognitive abilities." https://twitter.com/DanaBashCNN/status/1694423443012202770 Leon Trotsky 2012 fucked around with this message at 19:58 on Aug 23, 2023 |

We regret to inform the country that the servers containing President Reagan's Holograms became corrupted and the backups lost, we will start the inauguration of Vice President Tupac as soon as Chief Justice Chuck-E-Cheese gets done playing guitar at a 7 year old's birthday party.

When you thought the chair was empty, it was goons sitting on Obama's behalf instead. Or something. Is there any way to see the pubbie debate outside the US? I don't think Fox would give me a trial sub for their streaming service without me spoofing a US postal address or some nonsense like that.

Jethro posted:That worked so well I was today years old when I found out there was supposed to be a holObama I'm with you. Is the holObama thing real or was it just them trying to save face after an embarrassing presentation of Old Man Yells At Chair? Zwabu posted:No, because if the right wing media complex continues to exist he will be memory holed even more quickly and completely than Reagan and GWB are right now, who were at least two termers. Reagan wasn't and still hasn't been memory holed. Whitewashed, yes, but he's very much still the Modern Republican Messiah. It helped that he lingered for a while with his acting skills fully intact which kept him photogenic even if the Alzheimer's had stripped much of his ability to even know what day it was. Dubya is definitely Mr. Memory Hole of course. Everyone on both sides wants him to just stay on his private residence and paint his pictures.

Bar Ran Dun posted:I dunno how’d Bobby Jindal do? Bobby Jindal, the first non-white person to ever be elected governor of Louisiana, a deep-red southern state? I think he did pretty okay for himself. He did pretty poorly in the 2016 GOP primaries, granted, but so did a dozen white guys. He dropped out before the first primary even happened, but so did Scott Walker, Lindsey Graham, and Rick Perry, three white Christians who (like him) had held statewide positions when they started their runs. Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:Fox plans to digitally insert Trump into the Republican debate tonight. This is sad, pathetic, and humiliating for everyone involved (except Trump). For Fox, it's an obviously desperate move. For the other candidates, it robs them of crucial screentime and puts a big spotlight on how irrelevant they actually are. I can't imagine anyone's happy about this except Trump.
