The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Since we're posting just for the record, I'll keep it short.

You mean by having current CIA employees collude to deny things like Hunter's laptop? Or launch multiyear conspiracy theories designed to distract an administration and lead to bogus impeachments? Or prosecuting political opponents? Or how about just declaring your political opponents terrorists?

Hunter's laptop is irrelevant. Hunter isn't president, nor is he running for president.

Muti-year conspiracy theories is Trump's thing. Recall the "stolen election"? People have gone to prison and lost their law licenses over that. Also - projection, the Trumpist's favorite tool. Because Trump does it, they think everyone does it.

Impeachment? I'm still waiting for the Biden impeachment. Surely we should have that by now. It's been promised for years. That's the bogus impeachment. As to Trump's, there were a majority of Senators voting in favor of both, including Republicans both times. That's not the mark of bogus impeachments.

Prosecuting political opponents is a Trump promise, not Biden.

The only political terrorists I know of fought police, broke into the Capitol building and rioted inside and on the Capitol grounds.

Project 2025 is exactly as I described it. We've been over that in a long thread already.
