Isn't this extremely similar to the motivation behind the Sharon Tate murder? Make it look like black people did it to start the race war?

Most likely. There are genuine race/religion-baiting false flag ops going on by the Right as they get antsy.

This feels a little embarrassing to ask, but what specifically did Joe Lieberman do that everyone hates him? I live in CT and it seems like literally everyone in the state despises him.

Trump is a rich white guy who for years has had to rely on foreign investment for his business dealings. The IC won't give that the same amount of scrutiny as a major civil rights figure but they'd absolutely be keeping tabs on it, and when he announced his candidacy he'd be a very high priority for them to dig in to. If they don't have thousands of pages of info on Trump (and thousands more on the rest of his hosed up family) I'd be truly amazed. They have hundreds of pages even on small time cult leaders most people have never heard of. They're going to have tons on actual people who matter because it's their job to do so.

The question isn't about what intelligence they have, it's about whether they'll act on it, and if they do, to what extent. I highly doubt the FBI or CIA will treat Trump the same way they treated MLK.

I feel more comfortable eating at places that have calorie counts and am more likely to eat there than those that don't. I measure how many calories I eat roughly and decide what is and isn't a good tradeoff. I can easily avoid getting fat at fast food restaurants and from home cooking, but those sitdown places will getcha, even if they claim to be healthy. Don't know what you're getting, or how much of it

Sit-down places are never good places to eat if you wanna be sure you're healthy.

It is not a surprise that companies lie their asses off about calorie counts.

At this point, I'm not sure that's tinfoil territory. Hannity is probably gonna be fired anyway. His daily presser can be held on his nationally syndicated radio show where he has mute buttons and can yell at the reporters while they can't defend themselves.

An atheist Japanese salaryman, in the moment of being murdered, is confronted by a self-righteous entity he refers to as "Being X" who condemns the man for not believing that "Being X" is God and sentences him to be reborn in a world that is similar to WWI Europe mixed with early aspects of World War II and magic, in an empire torn apart by countless wars with all nearby countries. The salaryman is reborn as a girl, Tanya Degurechaff. According to "Being X", if she's not able to die a natural death, or she refuses to have faith in Him, her soul will leave the circle and be sent to hell for the countless sins that Tanya has committed in her previous life. In search for an escape, Tanya decides to enter into the Empire's Mages Division and fight in the world war, hoping to reach a high enough rank as fast as possible to remain far from the battlefield and in this way avoid the risk of being killed. Even if she's now forced to speak with a young girl's lisp, Tanya soon turns into a ruthless soldier who prioritizes efficiency and her own career over anything else, even the lives of those beneath her, especially those that get on her bad side.

I remember it being okay.

No, if Ossoff loses, that is bad for democrats. This district is the exact kind of district they need if they plan to retake the House, traditionally red, but with changing demographics that was already luke-warm on Trump. Its the most expensive House race in US history, the democrats need to win this.

code:
2000 	President 	George W. Bush 68% - Al Gore 32%
2004 	President 	George W. Bush 70% - John Kerry 29%
2008 	President 	John McCain 62% - Barack Obama 37%
2012 	President 	Mitt Romney 61% - Barack Obama 38%
2016 	President 	Donald Trump 48% - Hillary Clinton 47%
This district HATES Trump, and if the dems cant capitalize on that, then they are hopeless (or atleast extremely likely to get hosed in 2018)

I have no faith in the democrats to not gently caress it up somehow. It's already looking like he will lose, which is the death knell.
