    Key takeaways: The border issue has been a thing, for like, forever. They want to focus on the root cause which is what they should do. A wall doesn't fix the border issue.

    I think they will have all these states that they are recertifying the election in, come out and say it was a landslide victory for Trump. I cannot fathom that anything substantive will actually happen but it will be a disrupting force moving forward as 30% of the population who believes anything Trump says now has the "evidence" to prove the election was stolen. That is when the fun begins.

    Nice. We are probably a mile from you. Trails in the Experimental Forest are amazing. They legit are. I'm liking them more and more and especially because some of our favorite hikes in RMNP got burned out. We did Backscratch last weekend and the loop the other day. Had a crazy experience in there last year when a wicked wind storm blew in and started dropping trees all around us. Several cars had to get out and help remove trees from the road to get out of the park.

    I am. We got in on the 12th and leave at the end of the month. Just saw our first bear by the house. Tons of Moose this year (cause the fires?). Had a pine marten literally peak his head into the back patio yesterday. I love this shit.

    Yeah, but have you heard of the Burnt Orange Media Conspiracy?! Aggies have been mistreated and misunderstood all because Texas owns the media.

    Would it make you feel better if I was? Is that what you measure yourself against to boost your ego?

    One channel that at one point had almost as much viewers as MSNBC and CNN combined. It's since dropped post Trump. Regarding Russia, again educate yourself. Russia has and is involved in messing with our government and elections. An investigation ensued because someone benefited from it. I'm sure you had the same criticism about all the Benghazi investigations. Poor Hillary, right? But I need to think for myself. Go felate yourself in a corner to feel better about your ignorance, snowflake.

    Educate yourself on this. It's another common lie not based on reality. Fox News is the number 1 cable news station. A lot of local news is owned by very conservative media. Satellite radio? Owned by a Trump donor. Twitter and Facebook (and now Parlor) have been dominated by right wing personalities. Your concern is with moderation on those sites (sounds familiar). They decided to take on misinformation, which you conflate with liberal censorship. Think about that for more than 2 seconds.

    You mean they worked to actively limit the fake news that Russia and our enemies (including Trump) propagated on their private platforms? The horror. You should direct your rage at the sources of the misinformation, not the platforms trying to limit it. It just so happens that your "team" lives and dies (literally) on that misinformation. *bolded: where are you getting that info other than from your ass?

    You know..... Maybe this God fella is starting to finally pay attention over here with today's news

    Someone who allows you to eat all the body and drink all the blood of Christ you can handle. Here's her advertising the new diet blood of Christ with Sprite. The 7 and 7 of Trumpers.

    Hiking this morning was dicey as this weather moved in. One of the employees at Safeway had a Texas longhorn mask on. This is burnt orange country.

    It's still mind blowing that the only thing they think they pay taxes for is for the salarys of those in congress. If only they realized they are advocating for defunding the police.
  17. SmokeyTheBear
    Cool. Then view me as a type of troll and put me on ignore. Maybe you'll stop engaging with me just like you want me to stop engaging with others.......on a message board. Yours and my prerogative.
  18. SmokeyTheBear
    You have your way of dealing with them, I have mine. Feel free to put me on ignore as well if it is such a problem for you.

    Rented a house on the side of a mountain in Colorado for 6 weeks to take the fam. Covid or not, we're socially distancing out into the (semi)wild.
  20. SmokeyTheBear
    I just don't view everyone with an opposing view as a troll. I see these people in my family and out in the wild regularly and they just live in a different world. Do you leave them be or engage? I tend to want to engage. You may not. Good for you. But here we are on a message board, a place to engage, so I will. I don't think GR is a troll in the context of what message he is trying to sell, but maybe in the way he is trying to sell it.
  21. SmokeyTheBear
    Fair, at a level. I'm not looking to reach those, I'm looking to challenge them for those that are lurking and trying to understand issues. There are those who would buy into the troll narrative if the troll narative goes unchecked.
  22. SmokeyTheBear
    The objective truth is that one party has been working to suppress the vote for decades because they know their base is too small to win elections. Also, stacking the courts by breaking precedent they themselves set. All things to control the government outside of winning elections.
  23. SmokeyTheBear
    Here's the thing, I don't think he is a troll. They really do just believe these crazy things. They bought into the Fox News narrative years ago and that set millions of people to go down a certain path where "both sides", "whataboutism", "identity politics", "fake news", racism only against whites, etc are the prisms they view every issue thru. I've seen this same behavior in family members who are otherwise very intelligent and capable. But once you really challenge them, their arguments fall apart because they are solely propped up on feelings and paranoia they've been taught to embrace; not some objective truth.
  24. SmokeyTheBear
    So if Dems did it in the last election, are you saying Russia could have done it in the previous in favor of Trump?
  25. SmokeyTheBear
    Oh you see it regularly on here. Did you think Russia had some involvement in our politics in the past few years? Oh, well then whatever you say is completely invalid. (although Russia was involved and there is evidence of some sort of pee tape, but who really gives a shit? It was a funny side story)
