I don’t know what is funnier your twisted logic or the Instagram reel I just posted of an owl standing at a front door holding an envelope. You so want this to be true you are discounting the fact if this was a verified video of what you are claiming its about it would be all over cable news, especially Fox News and that Newsmax who live for stuff like this when it involves someone from the left. As far as I can tell it hasn’t been which means even Fox News and that Newsmax aren’t buying that it’s a legitimate unedited video. And that is not a deflection from your fact checker rant but the simple truth. On that note I will leave you with this Instagram Reel. www.instagram.com/reel/CwiO6goKLBq/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==Nothing twisted about my logic, at all. I know nothing about Newsmax, but it was on Fox. Now, if he is NOT doing what we SEE him doing in the video, the fact checkers would be all over that. So, where are those fact checks? Finally you answered the question about Fox so I googled it and found this… link”Video of President Joe Biden, 80, apparently pretending to “nibble” at a little girl while in Helsinki, Finland, is circulating on the internet this weekend. However, the source of the video remains unclear. While Fox News, The New York Post and The Independent all reported on it, none specified where it originally came from. The Independent shared a Twitter post of the footage from Breaking 911, which in turn shared it from an account called Conservative War Machine. Comedian Chad Prather also shared the video and said in a comment: “This clip was apparently recorded by @armalite15ou812. Great job,” referencing an account that frequently posts anti-Biden memes.“ Note two things. 1. They don’t know where this video came from. 2. But then they determined it may have come from the guy bolded. Check out his twitter site. So once again how do you know this video is legit?

I am not going to dispute you because we do see what we see, and the kid was certainly not totally onboard. Kind of like all those videos of parents putting kids on Santa’s lap or some Mascot or Disney figure and the kid not loving it, while there are plenty who do. That is just not that particular kid’s thing.
Probably gone are the days of kissing babies at political rallies, or from the pope, or whatever, and President Biden and others will have to remember this…including Trump (have you seen some those awkward kid kisses and kid interactions 😬😆) as we certainly don’t want to scar our kids for life. But to try and make this a whole pedophile moment by President Biden is pretty much over the top IMO.
I wish that there were more people who could see what they see and hear what they hear without all the conspiracy theory, ignoring, or not really looking into what you (general you) think you are seeing. Seems to be a shit ton of that going on, and that certainly isn’t helping our country or the divide in it. You are certainly free to call my post gaslighting but it is my opinion.

Which fact checkers? It seems to me that if it wasn’t talked about on other reputable sources, the fact checkers probably already determined that it was fake and didn’t show it. There are a lot of fake videos out there and they don’t have time to debunk every one. That could be a full time channel just doing that. And it doesn’t really seem like Fox has fact checkers so there is that. If he did do what the video shows, I do think it’s weird. He seems like one of those people who get just a little too close for my comfort even though they have good intentions and just really genuinely like connection with others. I don’t see any nefarious or sexually inappropriate intention with him. That’s very different than what Trump said publicly about Ivanka or even women in general.

… I didn’t say either of those things. If you want to be snarky, at least do try to be accurate. I didn't say you did. If you're going to correct me, at least do try to be accurate. So what we can take from your non-response is that you’re aware that Republican politicians also kiss babies but it’s somehow pedophilia or senility (not sure of your claim) if a Democrat does it.

We can all read the implications. But she didn't say those exact words. 🙄 This is all a terrible game to her, I fear. She never argues *for* anything. She never makes any declarative statement of exactly where she stands on any issue. She just tries to poke holes in what everyone else says. When you try to read between the lines and make a comment about what she's implying she says, well I never said that. It's constant dancing around.

It seems she is an agent of chaos like another Republican we know...She is purposely obtuse and derives joy from stirring up a tizzy, not a game I want any part of. I have limited energy and prefer to use it procrastinating on pre-cleaner cleaning.

OP genuinely believes she is superior and has a more joy in her life than the rest of us. That was quite the leap she made. 🙃 As far as “why is she here?” I don’t think we’ll hear from her (under this ID) again for a good long time, if ever.

And it doesn’t really seem like Fox has fact checkers so there is that. Nope. Here's where your theory falls apart... It was, at the very least, on Fox and in Newsweek. The fact checkers DID fact check a version of this video. One that was clearly edited by adding a loud sniffing sound so they could try to falsely claim he was sniffing her. They didn't bother to debunk THIS unedited version, because it's NOT a fake video.

I never said it, never "stepped around it", never "danced around it", never alluded to it it any way that you could even twist into saying I was insinuating it, never even thought it. Gennifer is the one who completely fabricated what I said, for seemingly the sole purpose of having something to condemn me for. If you read the thread, it's clearly there for you to see the reality of how this went down. Instead you chose to run with an obvious lie. The bottom line is, if you have to lie about what I said in order to condemn me, I'm not the one deserving of condemnation. Nope. This dishonest and desperate need to demonize anyone with a different opinion and/or facts you don't want to hear at the expense of honest, rational debate is why most conservatives don't participate anymore. The hostile, dishonest pile-ons are what causes conservatives not to bother. The need to silence opposing facts/opinions is overwhelming.

Mea Culpa. gar and MichyM I’ve interacted and “liked” the photos taken by the OP. Because I really, for the most part, stay out of the political threads (such as this one), I truly had no idea of her political stance. I have been a member of this board for almost 24 years. During that time, I have tried to extend kindness and grace to all members, even though I know I fail miserably at times. In the original version of the 2 Peas photography board, I was a relatively active participant. I miss it. When Refugee Peas post pictures, I one of the many that respond. I was not aware of the political stance of the OP. Frankly, I don’t keep a spreadsheet, so except for the vocal few, I only know the political affiliation of a small number of our members. Sometimes liking a picture is just that, liking a picture.

But generally I will positively interact with peas whose politics differ from mine on threads that are for lifting others up in some way, because I'm a member of this board first and a political pea second. I am least patient on political threads with those who come here to fight and never or very rarely contribute anything positive, funny, or supportive to the board. Just personal preference.

Restless Spirit - as Merge said, that was a prod at the OP calling many of us joyless etc etc and generally looking down her nose at those who engaged on this/her thread, not a dig at you. My point was that she didn’t look down on them when she solicited admiration for her photos…they were offering praise and that was different presumably.

More evidence Trump is losing it and becoming more unhinged. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/10/01/trump-gop-alternative/The media obsession with finding fault with President Biden or fanning “but he’s too old” chatter (worse: “But he wears sneakers”) not only renders a disservice to voters facing an existential threat to democracy but also misses the real “they should be panicked” storyline: Republicans’ growing realization that the MAGA cult cannot be weaned from a candidate who might well be convicted in one or more criminal cases by Election Day 2024.
Republicans are left with a putative standard-bearer who is increasingly incoherent (e.g. electric vehicles that zap you in water, windmills that kill whales, Jeb Bush’s Iraq War) and whose streak of legal losses suggest his criminal trials are far more formidable than his supporters imagine. The alternative is a list of challengers so hapless and unlikeable that the debates have come to resemble the “Star Wars” bar scene.www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2023/09/26/trump-gaffe-bush-george-jeb-2016-campaign-sot-ip-vpx.cnnwww.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/sep/26/trump-whale-wind-turbine-renewable-energy-misinformationDonald Trump has launched a lengthy and largely baseless attack on wind turbines for causing large numbers of whales to die, claiming that “windmills” are making the cetaceans “crazy” and “a little batty”.

So, we're good enough when she needs accolades, but otherwise we just don't measure up to her standards. Sigh. OP's photos threads now read as nothing more than attention seeking now that she's shared her true thoughts about all of us. Her interactions with us have been disingenuous.

Trump mixes up Obama and Biden again and talks about Jeb Bush deploying troops. With slurred speech, the former guy talked about if he would prefer to be electrocuted or eaten by a shark. But Biden is in a cognitive decline?
