    Louise Mensch is a British blogger and former Conservative Member of Parliament that absolutely no one should pay the least bit of attention to.  However, the so-called "Resistance" fawned all over her last year because she's vociferously anti-Imbecile and was one of the first to go all-in on the Russia conspiracy stuff (despite having no real evidence at the time to support it).  Here are a few of her notable hits:

     

    During and after the 2016 US presidential election, Mensch's political commentary has promoted conspiracy theories about the Russian government, Donald Trump and people in Trump's circle.[91] Mensch claims she has evidence that Vladimir Putin had Andrew Breitbart murdered to make room for Steve Bannon at Breitbart.[92][93][94] She has stated that the 2017 Istanbul nightclub shooting was a Russian false flag operation, with Russia posing as ISIL;[84] that "Bannon and his team" were behind bomb threats to Jewish community centres; and that Russian intelligence planted Hillary Clinton's emails on Anthony Weiner's laptop.[4] Mensch has also accused numerous people and organizations of being Russian "shills", "moles" and "agents of influence," including founder of Facebook Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel,[95][96] Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and elements of Mossad (Israel's intelligence service).[97]

     

    Mensch stated that President Obama should have responded with "precision bombing raids" and "massive cyber war" in response to Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections.[4]

     

     

    So she's a British Alex Jones... moving on.

    I watched all three morning shows on broadcast TV and they all put it into context and also showed that he answered a question after the claim that he was ending questions. In addition to that, the ABC reporter who asked the question was on-air on GMA and said there was no confusion or loud noise; he clearly was looking at her and answered her question.

    Sarah Sanders would resign if she had an ounce of actual integrity. "Woman of faith" my ass...

    I had the same thought process. 

     

    I have found that trying to give Donald any benefit of the doubt is like taking Lucy's word that she won't move the football this time.

     

    Like with everything else, they take advantage of any attempt by people to be reasonable. Sanders bold faced, gas lighting lie was said with confidence so as to convince those who don't followup on the initial back and forth.

     

    Even if this administration was promoting things and issues I liked, I think I would still despise them for their dishonesty. As has been said before, it's not just that they're dishonest, they have shifted the very idea that honesty is an ideal that one should aspire to.

     

    And they legit think everyone is a sucker. Trump learned all of this from Roy Cohn.

  4. Here's the scarier thing... I was talking to a friend of mine today and he said if Trump is a Russian asset, we're basically fucked. The amount of info that Trump has access to that he could pass along, especially in an unmonitored two hour meeting is staggering. If he is a traitor, we are well and truly fucked and I'm legit nervous. More nervous than I was after 9/11. This is an EXISTENTIAL threat to the country.

    I think the issue is ScarJo may not want to help fund the project because without her starring in it, it’s earning potential is significantly lower. From a public image point of view it’s probably good to keep the film alive and say some “this is a story that needs to be told” bs. But I don’t think she needs that. She’s one of the stars of the MCU. 

    Bingo. Although she could conceivably still participate and help the movie get made.  The irony is there isnt a trans actor out there that could get a film like this made.  I assume it had a decent budget. Instead of taking her ball and going home she should stay on as a producer in name only, and see if she can help the film get made and repair her image a bit.

  6. I'll check Source Code out the next time it's on cable or something... I remember it being similar to Deja Vu? I actually liked that movie a lot. Moon, I saw a couple of times... it's not bad. Just underwhelming considering the hype it got. At least to me. I thought it was a great effort for a first time though and looked forward to films from him in the future and have been disappointed.  I follow him on Twitter and he seems like a cool guy though.

    Hahaha yeah, that's the one with Jake Gyllenhaal. Jones' direction really elevates a pretty mundane screenplay into a really good (but not great) movie. Moon is better but Source Code is good.

     

    Maybe both are due for a rewatch for you? :p 

    Na, I thought both were decent but not amazing. Didnt see Warcraft and Mute was pretty bad.
