Le Pen is reportedly accused of wrongfully diverting $5 million in funds earmarked for the European Parliament to staffers of her nationalist, xenophobic party, the National Rally, over a 12-year period.
I hate soft worded journalism. She isn't reportedly accused of shit. She was found guilty.
I was thinking the exact same thing. If you pay a bunch of people to have a political opinion, it must be natural to think that everyone who has a political opinion is being paid.
I... I didn't know you could do that.
Honestly not the best alibi, seeing that it's completely plausible to go out and commit arson in the time it takes between late game Civ turns.
Gipple? Loleola?
Someone just told me they're trying to spin it as not being as incompetent as the Afghanistan pullout.
I swear to God, Republicans are incapable of going "my bad, that was my mistake." Instead they just spin spin spin and attack attack attack.
Instructions unclear. Penis now covered in white board marker.
On a somewhat related note, there's a documentary on Netflix called Mr. McMahon that follows the story of Vince McMahon as he founded the WWF and was eventually sued for sex trafficking and all sorts of shit.
It's worth a watch. Also makes it all the more crazy to see his wife as the new Secretary of Education.
The Daily Show did a pretty good segment yesterday highlighting the absurdity of their response about how this data didn't count as being "war plans":
It's absolute insanity that they're trying to spin this as not being classified or even sensitive info.
This has me dying - nice job!
Update from this post yesterday: https://sh.itjust.works/post/34622756
Trumper has since scrubbed her Facebook page of all things political, including pictures of her husband in a MAGA hat. She is now claiming to never have made political posts.
Transcript:
I'm posting this not to start a debate over politics but just for a generalized statement so please do not come at me or try to start a debate. I do not nor have I ever talked politics for the sheer reason that everyone has an opinion and is absolutely entitled to that opinion; that's why we vote and I am not about to go at it with someone because our beliefs arent the same. I have recently had too many people flooding my text messages or DMs forcing their opinion. I even had one friend end our friendship because I politely stated I do not talk politics and I was not going that rabbit hole with her.
The fact of the matter is like it or not the president is who it is. I have worked for the federal government for 15 years and it is a scary thing right now. [Redacted] also military and we don't know what our jobs will look like in the future. We're rolling with things as they come out and will adjust as needed but a lot of things I receive or read from a lot of posts have somewhat taken me by surprise and do not wish to be apart of it.
I can honestly say I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as a federal worker.
Right now I'm working on my resume. I'm open to work, preferably in finance as I have my accounting degree. If you know of anyone hiring please let me know.
As I have mentioned before, please do not post your political beliefs as I am not interested in debates or opinions. During this time, please remember that government employees are workers at risk of losing their job. It's scary as most of us have dedicated our careers to government and government operations is all that most of us know and now will be forced to look outside for other options and start over. No matter which side everyone is one, no one wants to lose their job so please be mindful of this. Remember that government employees are humans too and it is a very scary time for most of us and our families.
It's absolutely disgusting how people become addicted to Fox News. It's like misinformation crack.
You really never hear of a person who just watches 15 minutes of Fox News. It's either someone that doesn't watch Fox News intentionally - or it's running 24/7 at their house.
