Republican Romney asks how can Americans side with Putin? Treasonous for Trump and supporters to believe Putin propaganda over US intelligence. They are misguided to see Putin as a defender of traditional values because of his opposition to globalism, multiculturalism, modernism and liberalism.
And it will continue.

Russia (their government and ruling class) is our political, moral-social, and economic adversary, since post-WWII, so I agree with you.
Siding with the propaganda from the other side may not rise to the level of actual treason but in this case it's damn close. Traitorous at the very least.
I have no respect for such people.

The CIA conducted a sham vaccination program in Pakistan to try to find Bin Laden to collect DNA from people in the neighborhood where he was hiding and now it’s resulted in a bunch of Polio cases and the murder of legit vaccine workers.
True or false?

True, but I can’t seem to find where the the vax program was the direct cause of the increase of polio cases. Unless the increase was caused by mistrust in these vaccine programs.

It is worse than I thought, I think I think it's raining here but what do I know, I'm not a meteorologist Do you 'guys' know the definition of the word 'woman'
Like what Jason Whitlock said when he quoted Voltaire; "Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities."
A Supreme Court nominee refuses to define the definition of a woman. Such a simple question. Such an absurdity!!
The next Hitler is waiting in the wings.

"What is a woman" has become a controversial question because of GOP hysterical push for anti-transgender laws that seek to solve a virtually non-existent problem. Under 0.1% of population is transgender. Judge Jackson replies that she isn't a biologist. Her answer accurately reflects current legal practice. Law isn't always black and white. Science says there is no simple answer. Different biological markers don't always align such as genitals, chromosomes, internal structure, hormone ratio and secondary sex characteristics.

Republican-controlled states have higher murder rates than Democratic ones: study
YAHOO NEWS -
Republican politicians routinely claim that cities run by Democrats have been experiencing crime waves caused by failed governance. But a new study shows murder rates are actually HIGHER in states and cities controlled by Republicans.
A new study from the center-left think tank Third Way shows that states won by Trump in the 2020 election have higher murder rates than those carried by Joe Biden. The highest murder rates, the study found, are often in CONSERVATIVE, rural states. The study found that murder rates in the 25 states Trump carried in 2020 are 40% higher overall than in the states Biden won. (The report used 2020 data because 2021 data is not yet fully available.) The five states with the highest per capita murder rate — Mississippi, Louisiana, Kentucky, Alabama and Missouri — all lean Republican and voted for Trump.
Broadly speaking, the South, and to a lesser extent the Midwest, has more murders per capita than the Northeast, interior West and West Coast, the study found.
Those findings are consistent with a pattern that has existed for decades, in which the South has had higher rates of violent crime than the nation as a whole.

Criminologists say research shows higher rates of violent crime are found in areas that have low average education levels, high rates of poverty and relatively modest access to government assistance.
Those conditions characterize some portions of the American South.

“They are among the poorest states in our union,” Ortiz said of the Deep South. “They have among the highest rates of child poverty. They are among the least-educated states. They are among the states with the highest levels of substance abuse. All of those factors contribute to people engaging in criminal behavior.”

This seems intuitive at least in terms of violent crime.
What I rarely see reported is the prevalence of other crimes.

Covid-19's real death toll may be nearly 3 times higher than reported, WHO data suggests
CNN - About 14.9 million people around the world died as a direct or indirect result of Covid-19 in the period between January 1, 2020, and December 31, 2021, according to new estimates from the World Health Organization -- nearly 3 times more deaths than were officially reported.
There were 5.4 million Covid-19 deaths reported to WHO during that timeframe, resulting in an excess mortality estimate of 9.5 million more deaths than what was reported.
"Excess mortality is the difference between the number of deaths that have been recorded and those that would be expected in the absence of the pandemic," said Samira Asma, assistant director-general for the Data, Analytics and Delivery for Impact Division of WHO.
