Local? Didn't the RNC as a whole drop out of the debates? Voted unanimously to shut it all down because bi-partisan debates are just too biased for them?

US parties don't work like that. The national party provides fundraising, support, and endorsement for the 50 state level parties (plus the DC parties and those in the territories), but they are not in command. The RNC cannot command anybody to go or not go to a debate.

I think they threatened to block them from their own sanctioned debates if they went to unsanctioned debates without permission. They can't force them, but they can threaten to cut support.

We knew it was bad when they let that AIDs profiteer Fauchi not only keep his license, but also take charge of the CDC, and when the CDC refused to believe that diseases could be transmitted through the air. Nobody can be this incompetent accidentally, so it makes sense that they're intentionally killing people off. "Weirdly", the change started happening when the numbers showed the disease mostly killed off old, poor, disabled, and non-white people.

If I haven't seen them in these forums so many times before, I would have assumed that was some sort of bot.

I'm getting a security warning from that link too.

This isn't the first time I've seen Iduno express similar sentiments, so my assumption is that he's been drinking one brand of kool-aide or another.

@Iduno
Was Fauci involved in AIDS profiteering? More than others? Most doctors also accumulate market equity in medical supplies and treatments because they invest like any other speculators, in what they know.

- I would understand it if he was borderline involved in aids profiteering due to market speculation.
- I would also understand if his name was put on an "aids profiteer" list, simply because he worked in some of those companies.
- And I would also understand if some conservative black-PR group found this older info during the Trump/Fauci conflict and began to use it for black-PR, saying "those liberal gay rights people called him an aids profiteer, you know it must be true" (the typical either-way-is-a-win-for-us fulcrum of "if the other side said this was true, then either it is true now or the other side was lying then").

I currently suspect there has been Covid profiteering and test fudging with covid treatments, but I expect less of it since Covid is easier to transmit, so more people care and they verify and judge more often. I certainly would not judge Fauci's CDC Covid response on a foundation of "look at this prior criticism of Fauci".

There is something to be said about, if the stakes are as high, maybe reconsider your certitudes. One has to be aggressively allistic to feel entitled to be able to trust. But it won't happen to me, my bit doesn't count etc etc... Just saying, after my recent experiences I couldn't trust the public if I wanted to. People got their risk assessment neurons rotten and replaced with game theory. Folks walk around like fat turkeys taunting the world to slaughter them.

They rolled out more or less the same comment about two months ago, according to the thread search. It's more or less spurious, as near as anyone seemed to be able to tell.

Alex Jones, under pressure of orders to pay defamation damages for Sandy Hook, has driven his various corporate entities into filing for bankruptcy.

Infowars may be liable to $1...10million, but estimates its available assets as only $0...50k.

What a pity.

He's burying all his assets "out of his control" and then filing bankruptcy in order to dodge his lawsuit damages because he technically doesn't have the money personally.


Which is extremely illegal to do after a lawsuit's been filed, and the plantiff's lawyers are already calling him on it in court.

I think if you look at the various things Alex Jones has profited from in the last, oh, 10 years, I think you'll notice a distinct lack of appreciation for legal niceties.

So I'm glad he's continued that trend. Sounds like he's given them reasons to look even deeper into his books now.
