    Wow,...a foreign Govt congratulated the newly elected President....I don't think that's ever happened before.....

    Sorry you can't accept the facts, the Obama CIA had the intel that they favored Clinton, and buried it.

    Cannot fact check one side and NOT fact check the other. Twitter is going to have to hire a whole lot of checkers..

    Well, they've now censored Trump, so it's a whole new ball game.

    Bye-bye Twitter.

    I wonder how many folks actually understand that the content they deliver on Twitter isn't their property anymore? Like all those pics, and movies, all shared to the world....

    Total fail on your part. The report does not find gross misconduct. Quite the opposite. It finds no documentary or testimonial evidence of ANY intentional misconduct. That report says the opposite of what you claim.

    You also claimed that the IG found evidence the Russians supported Clinton. Fail. The IG said no such thing. Your second link is a report that one guy thinks that documents that will be declassified might show support for Clinton. That’s not even close to what you claimed and it is hardly evidence. At best it’s double hearsay. But it hasn’t been backed up by any actual evidence.

    It’s really pathetic what Trump supporters have become. Make **** up to support Trump. Just make it up. I’ll give you credit for actually providing links and trying to bluff your way through, but those links did not support your position. In fact one of them proved the opposite of what you were claiming.

    False. Your link was a guy providing his prediction on what documents that had not yet been declassified might show.

    But hey, if there are declassified documents that show the Russians favoured Clinton, please link to those documents. Not some commentary but the source documents themselves.

    Betcha can’t.

    You don't know what you're talking about. IG Horowitz admitted premeditated fraud was committed on the FISA court and that exculpatory evidence was altered when questioned by Sen. Cruz. The IG said he got no satisfactory explanation as to why all the 'mistakes' went against Trump, but said he wouldn't rule out political bias. That missing documentary evidence was recently found in the Flynn case where the FBI memo asked if their goal was to basically frame Flynn or get him fired.

    I'll let uber liberal Rolling Stone explain it to you: https://www.rollingstone.com/politi...t-steele-dossier-collusion-news-media-924944/

    Note the IG Report verifies the long derided Nunes Memo.

    "Horowitz ratifies the oft-denounced “Nunes memo.”

    Democrats are not going to want to hear this, since conventional wisdom says former House Intelligence chief Devin Nunes is a conspiratorial evildoer, but the Horowitz report ratifies the major claims of the infamous “Nunes memo.”

    As noted, Horowitz establishes that the Steele report was crucial to the FISA process, even using the same language Nunes used (“essential”). He also confirms the Nunes assertion that the FBI double-dipped in citing both Steele and a September 23, 2016 Yahoo! news story using Steele as an unnamed source. Horowitz listed the idea that Steele did not directly provide information to the press as one of seven significant “inaccuracies or omissions” in the first FISA application.

    Horowitz also verifies the claim that Steele was “closed for cause” for talking to the media, i.e. officially cut off as a confidential human source to the FBI. He shows that Steele continued to talk to Justice Official Bruce Ohr before and after Steele’s formal relationship with the FBI ended. His report confirms that the Steele information had not been corroborated when the FISA application was submitted, another key Nunes point.

    There was gnashing of teeth when Nunes first released his memo in January, 2018. The press universally crapped on his letter, with a Washington Post piece calling it a “joke” and a “sham.” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi slammed Nunes for the release of a “bogus” document, while New York Senator Chuck Schumer said the memo was intended to “sow conspiracy theories and attack the integrity of federal law enforcement.” Many called for his removal as Committee chair.

    The Horowitz report says all of that caterwauling was off-base. It also undercuts many of the assertions made in a ballyhooed response letter by Nunes counterpart Adam Schiff, who described the FBI’s “reasonable basis” for deeming Steele credible. The report is especially hostile to Schiff’s claim that the FBI “provided additional information obtained through multiple independent sources that corroborated Steele’s reporting.”

    Yours is the most recent post that mentions Devin Nunes and Twitter, so I'll use it to update the world on his awesome Cow lawsuit.

    Spoiler alert - He seems to be losing, to no surprise to anybody

    SNIP
    Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) has apparently milked attempts to punish anti-Nunes parody Twitter accounts long enough.

    Twitter also refused to reveal the identities of the account holders. Virginia Judge John Marshall has not ordered the company to do so — making suing those people virtually impossible, complained Nunes’s attorney Steven Biss.

    “We’re trying to figure out who they are, and we read the comments on Twitter — as painful as it is — we do that every day,” Biss said. “But we’re at a dead end.”
    ENDSNIP

    https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/devin-nunes-cow-lawsuit-dead-end-042704996.html

    Laughable that reading every Twitter comment is somehow going to help you identify the posters.... I think they're a little more savvy than that..

    But the best line of the article, after discussing how Nunes cannot identify the human owners of the parody accounts:

    SNIP
    Devin Nunes’ Mom and the cow could not immediately be reached for comment.
    ENDSNIP

    I cannot find any Devin Nunes lawsuit threads, so I'll use this Twitter thread.

    Twitter found safe again

    SNIP
    Rep. Devin Nunes cannot sue Twitter Inc. over users — including a fake cow — who mock him, a judge ruled Wednesday.

    While the ruling throws out the case against Twitter, lawsuits against the individual accounts remain.
    ENDSNIP

    https://www.marketwatch.com/story/d...dge-rules-2020-06-24?siteid=yhoof2&yptr=yahoo

    And so it begins.... I cannot really use my cow humor yet, but Devin Nunes' Cow will soon be roaming free range as well...

    All conservatives, dump Twitter and move to Parler. It is absolutely exploding. All of the conservatives that were banned are there.

    Mark Dice is on Parler.
    Sargon is on Parler.
    Zero Hedge is on Parler.
    The Epoch Times is on Parler
    Eric Trump is on Parler
    Carpe Dunktom is on Parler (just kicked from Twitter because of his viral babies tweet)
    The Republican Party of Florida is on Parler

    All conservatives are on Parler and none of the progressives. It is a slice of heaven. None of the vicious mean-spirited America hating vitriol. Get everybody you know to dump Twitter and move to Parler. Loads of conservative politicians are on Parler and more are moving every day. Hopefully the President comes on over. FREE SPEECH AT LAST.

    Check it out, Laura got 125,000 views in 2 hours. The place is popping!

    I agree. Please for the love of humanity. Quarantine this idiocy on Plarler.com

    Where the right can bask in a place where they are the majority and cheer about the number of bot upvotes. Enjoy the echo chamber, we won’t miss you.

    Yes we are. Parler added 0.5 million users in the last seven days. They aren't going to ban you for savage memes that go viral. They are near critical mass, if Trump jumps to Parler, Twitter is focked. You have to know that the entire MSM will follow him there like Pavlov's dog.

    But it acts as a message board and the owners like here moderate the post. Now I don't want to get into an argument of whether Twitter is bias'd or slanted or whatever one thinks positive or negative, I'm talking about the principle here. Moderators moderate here sometimes I agree with their decisions sometimes I don't, just ask them :worship:. If the same principle is applied here because they exercise editorial and content control and someone could sue them because of something someone posted here...........................:police:.

    And as a disclaimer while I do have a Twitter account I don't use it personally when the RSS feeds all got cut and things like state Business Developement Council's went to Twitter for new plant and other business announcements I opened an account. I don't even think I have ever Tweeted a Tweet. So I have no vested interest in Twitter.

    They are paying liberals to join and also ban false “rumor”. I don’t think it will work out on there either after they get a large enough base.

    Seems no one wants them!
