I've literally been reiterating on my initial comment yet somehow I'm strawmaning using whataboutism? You clearly don't have a grasp of those definitions. I guess I should just use a lot of buzzwords and make no attempt to argue my point like you are...

this is only an own in you're ageist.

You're cherry picking a 10 second clip to make you point when in reality she was giving daily pressers and spoke eloquently on the issues. You're irrationally angry about this.

Don't worry about them, worry about yourself and try to defend what the point you're trying to make instead of deflecting.

In any case, a 10 second clip is your evidence? It's a tall show involving communication between a host and a guest and anything can go wrong. For all we know she wasn't sure if she was on the air or not and was genuinely confused.

When she was majority leader she gave daily press conferences in front of cameras and the media. An out of context YouTube clip is hardly evidence of anything, I'll take the daily pressers where she exhibited extreme prowess as a much more accurate indicator.

Why do you highly doubt it? Because she's 83? I work with people in their 80s daily and they're as sharp as anyone else on my team.

She's old but clearly cognitively with it and extremely effective as a leader. I'm all for people having mini strokes and cognitive impairment issues leaving government but this isn't the case with Pelosi.

Just don't go HAM and give up your citizenship.

What's wishy washing about advising people to listen to health experts?

It's not the regular labor day BBQs they're interested in. It's being deployed specifically to monitor parties and parades connected to J'Ouvert and the West Indian Day parade. Every year there's a spike in violent crime related to these events and they're trying something new to hopefully keep things more peaceful.

These events are mostly attended by people of color so I doubt the NYPD is going to say they're specifically targeting these gatherings but they are.

When I saw the image I thought it was a prototype. That's pretty funny.

It's impressive how quickly this dude's campaign crashed and burned. Fuck em.

That's because Trumpism turned it into a domestic terrorist group.
