The Wild East

Submitted by ub on

The Wild West was awesome, but that's not to say it was as attractive as some video games, television, and films make it out to look.

There's a lot of false facts about the old west out there in the wild, and we're here to run 'em down, tie 'em up, and leave 'em on the train tracks, like the dastardly myth-busters we are.

Prepare for the wild east, and more specifically, The Big Apple firearms circus, because SCOTUS has ruled that NY gun laws are restrictive.

Following the fourth hearing, there was the same number of takeaways. Four strikes and Donald Trump should be out and locked up.

Trump and his team:

Public statements: Americans are giving us so much evidence of election misconduct...  

Private conversations: We’ve got lots of theories. We just don’t have the evidence required.

Joe Biden is old and in shape. But Donald Trump is old, fat, and a traitor.

On June 17 1972 a break-in at Democratic headquarters led by Republican crook Richard Nixon ended with his resignation on 8/5/74.

It was nearly 50 years ago this day, that Tricky Dick showed the GOP to prey on Democracy and the rule of law our founding fathers had meticulously crafted to avoid the circumstances we face today from the Republican Party and the dirty trick they continue to play.

We The People of The United States of America, and Vice President Mike Pence were able to stop Trump’s stealing our 2020 election.

The Bipartisan select committee investigating the Capitol insurrection detailed how Trump tried to pressure his vice president to join in his failed attempt to overturn the presidential election. Thanks to Mike Pence's refusal, the VP put his life at risk as rioters called for his hanging on January 6, 2021.

Trump's Campaign to Influence Pence

The January 6 Committee holds its third public hearing focusing on former President Trump’s efforts to convince former Vice President Pence to not certify the 2020 election results.

Throw any adjective at it Criminal, brazen, shocking, outrageous, unprecedented, treasonous… etc. None are enough to capture the enormity of what he did to American democracy.

50 years ago, Republican dirty tricks caused the resignation of GOP POTUS Richard "Tricky Dick" Milhous Nixon to resign.

Fifty years after the break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters at Washington's Watergate complex, we are still piecing together the story of a crime, and a coverup, that brought down a presidency.

There were several shootings this weekend and unless Republicans stand up to the NRA, it will be a long hot Summer.

Nearly a dozen reported mass shootings in the USA since Friday following several back-to-back massacres in the past couple of weeks. In Philadelphia, three people died and 11 others were injured over the weekend after gunfire rang out at a popular entertainment district, officials said.

Putin is the only one who thinks he is a tough guy and who is winning his invasion. 100 days later he is the only one shrinking.

He is so short that he has to stand on a stool to make himself appear big and strong, among his shrinking military brass. Meanwhile, reports continue surfacing about him dying of cancer.

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has entered its 100th day, and intelligence reports indicate none of Russia's original strategic objectives have been achieved.
