The stripes that are showing don't match either the US or the Liberian flag as depicted here. The tweet image had a red strip abutting the blue. Both of the real flags shown here have a white stripe abutting the blue.

Conclusion: It wasn't meant to accurately represent the US flag.

SNOWFLAKE • 10 months ago

YET, the Repubs used it to promote July 4th.

Just_Drew • 10 months ago

It's part of their master plan to mass exodus the US and take over Liberia. This was their first signal to prepare to leave.

Consistent attention to historical detail ain't exactly a Republican strong point.

Jennifer A. Nolan • 10 months ago

This is a fun little teapot πŸ«– tempest β›ˆ, but it won't last, and it won't keep the yahoos from voting Repug, or the cop-out artists from failing to show up. We need to do better than this online street theater. πŸŽ₯

"Independence" Day is ironically titled given the fact that the US and UK are more strongly tied together today than they were in 1776. Look at how the US requires the UK to help persecute Julian Assange. And then there is the Five Eyes military intelligence consortium, the core of the Anglo-American empire. UK's MI-6 has been heavily involved in Washington's proxy war against Moscow.

LOCK THEM UP!! LOCK THEM UP!! LOCK THEM UP!!

The cognitively impaired are no longer institutionalized in the US.

Jamie B Testudinidae • 10 months ago

Isn’t the White House an institution?

Sophia Sadek • 10 months ago

Especially under Secret Service "protection."

Germaine • 10 months ago

Well, that gets understatement of the week award: ⭐

SNOWFLAKE • 10 months ago

Who? The Liberian's?

Germaine • 10 months ago

Who? Silly question. Whoever needs to be locked up, of course.

SNOWFLAKE • 10 months ago

THAT could be anyone. Ask Germaine to be the final arbiter, and see where this takes us.

Germaine • 10 months ago

Hm, sounds like a good topic for a wonderful post, Who Would Germaine Lock Up? That could get the brain juice flowing.

Just_PrimalSoup (aka Susan) • 10 months ago

I’m staying out of this one [runs and hides]. 😲

Germaine • 10 months ago

Bwahahahahaha!

SNOWFLAKE • 10 months ago

Are you tempting me to try it??

Germaine • 10 months ago

Bwahahahahahahahahahaha! Cough . . . cough . . . .

SNOWFLAKE • 10 months ago

Someone got caught in the spam filter on your channel, and I cleared her comments and added her as trusted user.
It was Peachy, someone trustworthy ;)

Germaine • 10 months ago

Thanks.

Flying Junior • 10 months ago

Maybe the poster thought it said the Libertarian flag?

tracey marie • 10 months ago

But of course they did. Eyeroll

Just_PrimalSoup (aka Susan) • 10 months ago

Well, I wouldn't get all bent out of shape about it. Artistic license is what I'd chalk it up to. I'm not so "flag obsessed" that I'd complain about it. I guess the liberals are giving the GOP a dose of their own medicine. Pick at something, anything, to get attention. (see Gym Jordan)

"DeSantis is evil." "DeSantis is public enemy number one." "No one is more dangerous for the White House than Ron DeSantis." "DeSantis assault on leftism is totalitarianism in disguise."

This ad was created by DeSantis campaign team. Ad is supposed to convince you to elect DeSantis for president, but it's an condemnation of DeSantis. Somebody flattered him into thinking that the ad was saying nice things about him!

De-Klan-tis

While taking up the unfinished work of Anita Bryant, (Breakfast without orange juice?), is terribly important to the anti-woke crowd, it's his work in banning books and attempting to rewrite American history that made me christen him thus.

Freeze Peach πŸ‘ • 10 months ago

That's a good nickname. Somehow this guy gets a lot of nickname, can't imagine why.

During the early days of COVID it was Governor Deathsentence.

Freeze Peach πŸ‘ • 10 months ago

I remember that.

My family migrated out of Florida after Katrina. Since then, I watched the news about Florida as closely as I could.

Kind Guy , Me Alright • 10 months ago

For some reason Desantis reminds me of Bush Jr.

Flying Junior • 10 months ago

I don't think that is fair. The sin of the Bush administration was Operation Destroy Iraq. Perhaps this was the greatest blunder in modern history. GWB did not publicly espouse or proclaim racist or anti-LGBTQ issues whatsoever to my knowledge.

Jamie B Testudinidae • 10 months ago

IIRC one of the first things he did after 9/11 was to remind Americans that it wasn’t all Muslims or Middle Easterners who were responsible. Not that it helped, as people were angry and some were idiots.

Just_PrimalSoup (aka Susan) • 10 months ago

Being mean and negative is the current zeitgeist. Why? Because it works.

The Trump Campaign Asks You to Support Our (Russian) Troops

e_monster • 10 months ago

Those look like MiGs.

Freeze Peach πŸ‘ • 10 months ago

Article says MiG-29. So yes, you are right.

e_monster • 10 months ago

I'm not a warplane detail fanatic but the silhouette didn't look right.

SNOWFLAKE • 10 months ago

I didn't get it at first till I read your link:

Running any kind of political campaign is hard. You've got a bunch of temporary workers (and volunteers) who will all go back to their normal lives after Election Day. Everything's a rush, and there will be mistakes.

And then there are mistakes. Someone in President Donald Trump's reelection campaign decided to run a fundraising ad suggesting that voters could Support Our Troops by donating to his campaign war chest. They bought a stock photo and added the donate links. Then, boom, it was out the door and onto the internet.

No one who approved the ad noticed that the troops in the photo were getting buzzed by a Russian MiG-29, but the image quickly went viral once it appeared online.

Trump hires only the best.

Kid Chaos • 10 months ago

I mean, from a certain angle it looks kind of like an F-15, so... πŸ˜…

Freeze Peach πŸ‘ • 10 months ago

It was kind of creepy because there had just been a big fuss about mystery troops in DC and Portland during BLM demonstrations.

dubious • 10 months ago

Because no challenge is to great for the GOP!

Where are his hands?

StrontiDog • 10 months ago

They're there. You may need a magnifying glass.

They got one correct out of two!

Dan T • 10 months ago

One correct out of to.

tracey marie • 10 months ago

Is this really what he posted, a decades old pic calling himself the president?

dubious • 10 months ago

It was his Official Inauguration Poster,
released on day ONE of his admin.

A harbinger of what to expect (quality wise), for sure.

Jamie B Testudinidae • 10 months ago

He obviously didn’t send it to the designer himself, so who the heck did? I guess it does explain their view of education as nothing more than a money making scam, and teachers as convenient political punching bags.

Just_PrimalSoup (aka Susan) • 10 months ago

I say, covfefe too that! [sic]

What a dumb sob... and, who had access to war strategies (of which he and Jared likely shared with MBS for $2,000,000,000). "I don't know it for a fact, I just know it's true," a la Bill Mahar.
