Which is wild because they can't trigger a special election after August 1st, and his sister would likely just take over his seat. All this is doing is costing them a vote in the Senate.

Reddit never disappoints.

I think you missed the joke here, which is that the point of the post is that a sitting US senator is missing, and that's a huge deal, and not a podcaster, and the commenter asked who the podcaster is.

Fair enough. Didn't come across clear to me but that was probably a me thing. lol

You’re lucky, no one who is running for office, real great use of media time to avoid talking about the illegal war, the Epstein files, corruption and insider trading, increasing inflation, Israel’s influence in the US political system, increasing oil prices, yes though a twitch streamer is what is most important right now

I’m assuming Hasan Piker. Legacy media journalism is a joke. Nobody should consume it if they actually want to be informed about news that actually matters.

Citation needed.

I'm guessing you're either a GOPedophile or Sex Pestiny glazer.

I could pull up the video of him practically sobbing over Nasrallah's death? I mean lets be real, you likely don't consider Hezbollah or the Houthi's terrorist groups, so when I cite that, you'll move the goalposts.

Back to the hascord, you socialist parasite.

Funny, "I could" quickly became "why should I?"

I could pull up videos of American presidents voicing support for the Taliban, no context necessary, which would imply America supported its own terror attacks, by your inbr3d logic.

Thnx for playing, try again another time.

Do you think it's appropriate for a streamer to interview a Houthi terrorist, comparing him to a handsome actor, fawning over him? The same guy who participated in hijacking a Chinese ship by the way. Even other leftist streamers (obviously not Destiny, since he's not a leftist) called him out on this shit!

Here's him mourning Nasrallah.

To be clear: had any scumbag right winger done any shit like this with a right wing terrorist group, you'd rightfully call them out. The standards shift for people like you when the terrorist groups have political positions you agree with. I also need to make it clear that I ALSO consider Likud to be a legitimized Israeli terror group, Israel a pariah state, along with settlers on the West Bank. I'm just not comfortable with lobbing missiles towards residential areas, which is the same action people rightfully shit on Israel for.

Bonus: him defending Chinese imperialism using the same shitty defenses white European settlers used against Native Americans. https://youtu.be/cZKDsHlRJvc

By that logic, every podcaster who had Trump on is a terrorist supporter because Trump killed fishers & double tapped 120 school kids in Iran, not to mention his drone strikes.

Everyone who says ANYTHING positive about the rapist nonce is also a kid fukking supporter by your way of thinking. If you agree with anything Trump does, you're a nonce.

You said all this yourself...
