America & World IV: Trump's Taxing Day

I can't imagine the heartbreak of having your child murdered in a school mass-shooting, but to then have someone with a show say to listeners that they believe it was a hoax and make money from those shows.

That's what Alex Jones has done and he's being sued by the parents of the victims of the Sandy Hook school shooting.

Naturally, without his audience to perform to, he's floundering when questioned in court, especially when he's claimed that ne never texted about Sandy Hook, then the prosecutor reveals he was accidentally sent digital copies of all his texts from the last two years proving that he has lied in court.

I saw the judge also laying into him for lying in court and for calling the judge out on radio, thus 'discussing the case' outside of court.
Ive also just read Jones has had 12 lawyers defending him in this case, sacking one after another.
I don't know much about this guy, but he sounds like a ****ing idiot.

The WHO and China are the reason I've been wearing a mask for the past 2 fing years. The WHO is China's bitch.

Like most if not all of these YouTuber who rise to fame by talking crap about tragic events. But do you know what? Seeing him squirm in court is very entertaining

We can't mention Alex Jones without referencing his Mega CD game.

Also I'd love to know what his normal voice sounds like.

The fat ****er looks like he might drop dead any minute. Visibly hypertensive with heart problems.

China escalates its tantrum

China escalates its tantrum

They must be furious at all the media, globally, talking about Taiwan right now.

Even mentioning the place around Chinese nationals is bizarre. A famous streamer was fired a while back merely for opening a webpage which mentioned it onscreen (a segment of the company's Chinese fans went berserk).

People sometimes talk about states that have strong secessionist leanings, like Catalonia, or hell, even Scotland - but you can't even compare that sort of thing to just how furious Taiwan makes the Chinese government, to the degree where a normal person will literally, if asked about Taiwan, just say "sorry, I don't hear you", and if you ask again, and again, they'll repeat "sorry, I don't hear you".

Then again there are cities in China which literally track, via cameras and face-reco, every single movement of every person, catalogue what they do, who they associate with, and will influence their lives in tons of shadowy ways based on their behaviour to mould them into better citizens. It's terrifying.

It's amazing some leaders still pursue the dictator avenue because... it rarely ends well

They have stopped cooperating on environmental issues? When did they ever?

Rarely ends well? I don't think it has ever ended well. All dictators end up in the **** eventually.

Anne Heche in the news today. Crashes her car into someones garage, tries to flee the scene at high speed but hits a curb, crashes through someones house destroying it and setting it and her car on fire. A crane had to be used to drag the wreckage out and Heche is now in hospital in critical condition with severe burns. Miraculously no-one else is injured
