Detox's political thread

Biden looks healthy today. He only fell three times going up the stairs. 

Do people on the left know that their fellow Democrats are still rioting in Portland? 

Or are they unaware because they only know what the news feeds them?

Those aren't democrats. They're anarchist. They've against all politicians including Democratic Mayor Ted Wheeler and Democratic Governor Kate Brown. In all fairness, they both suck so....

@StumpTownStu

 Yep, left or right everybody hates Wheeler 

The two political highlights of last summer were  Wheeler getting pepper sprayed by Antifa and that fat chick who bum rushed Carpenter In Wisconsin 

I haven’t heard any prominent Democrats mention the riots or heard any mention of it from the media? 

I wonder why. 

Surely the Democrats wouldn’t have a problem calling out anarchists with no affiliation to the Democratic Party? 

The problem is that they are Democrats. They most likely support Bernie and voted for Biden. Democrats can’t win if they lose that group. 

Axios has PHOTOS inside an illegal immigrant detention facility.

They're pretty bad.

Democrats are silent.

Why are they silent? Because they’re frauds. They use migrants, kids, black people, Hispanic people, g ay people, sexually abused women and poor people as pawns to push their political agendas. And the political agendas they’re pushing are usually end up hurting migrants, kids, black people, Hispanic people, g ay people, sexually abused women and poor people. 

Democrats are a nasty nasty group of people.

Why is the Biden Administration denying the press access to border operations? 

Where are all of the Democrats that were speaking out against this sort of thing for the previous four years? 

Democrats are frauds 

@I_Need_A_Detox

 Most of those motherfuckers don't vote at all and definitely wouldn't vote for a "southern" style democrat like Biden. I'm sure there are some who made an exception this past fall but I think it is you who are just repeating what you've heard in the media.

As far as the stuff about the border and democrats being frauds, I agree 100%.

Leftist Bernie supporters that voted for Biden and Democrats are afraid to call them out. 

All facts. 

Several members of President Biden’s White House staff have ties to companies with major stakes in the administration’s positions on cybersecurity, antitrust and other policy areas.

 Trust me. The motherfuckers destroying shit don't support any politicians. Maybe Bernie and Warren but definitely not Biden. And Portland isn't the hell hole some national media outlets try to make it out to be. Even this summer, when I would go into downtown, it was never as bad as I would prepare myself for. There was a stretch where it hot pretty nuts and there were riots pretty much every night so there was some truth to the reporting but the point i'm making is that all media spins. The left is spinning by omission. "We just won't cover it. We won't talk about riots. We won't talk about kids in cages." The right is spinning be exaggeration. "Oh my god, Portland is hell on earth! Protect your grandmother! They're canceling Dr. Suess!"

I’ve seen Portland with my own eyes. The place is a complete dump. 50% of the people there are cracked out zombies. 

They’re leftists. 

Democrats are afraid to say anything bad about them because they need their votes. 

All facts. 

When Mnuchin blocked the release of Trump's tax returns, it was the first time the IRS ever failed to turn over tax returns to Congress.

Maybe Mnuchin's taxes should be reviewed as well.

You're full of shite. What part of Portland? When? 50% of people cracked out Zombies? I'm calling bullshit.

The Democrats being afraid to say anything bad about them is real but it's the same with Republicans and the Capitol stormers. Everyone panders in politics.

Spent some time in Portland in 2015. It was restaurant week in March I believe. The only thing downtown had going for it was the food. Lots of “homeless” college aged white kids sleeping on the sidewalks. Saw some goofy folks practicing tai chi while wearing jeans near the Columbia river, that was comedy.

The city definitely isn’t for me but it’s surrounded by natural beauty for sure. I went to my first recreational co-op across the river in Vancouver, Wa. Got stoned and went to Voodoo doughnuts. Not bad but definitely overrated IMO 

@Doja45

 The surrounding natural beauty is the draw. The city is "meh". I used to love it. It's decent. Has both tree-lined, bucolic neighborhoods and hip, funky neighborhoods with cool bars and restaurants. It has gone down the shitter in recent years but the media portrayal is a little overblown. I live out in the sticks and it's flippin' wonderful. Rivers and streams and trees and mountains. Nice and respectful people.

You probably saw them practicing Tai Chi by the Willamette River. Can't think of any reason you would've been near the Columbia unless it was when you were in Vancouver.

@StumpTownStu

 You’re probably right. You could see the Trailblazers stadium from there

I went to Portland last summer. Absolutely disgusting place. You walk around that dump telling Democrats that you won’t buy them a meal and in the back of your mind you always think a Democrat is going to reach out from one of their tents and grab your ankle. 

Do cracked out zombies actually vote? I doubt they're even registered 

Democrats probably hand out hits if you register and come back with an I Voted sticker 

Nasty nasty group of people 

@I_Need_A_Detox

 Why did you go last summer when all the shit was going down? Are you an investigative journalist? Julio Rojas, is that you!!??

I needed to see it with my own eyes
