"I just learned of absolute incontrovertible evidence of North Korean boats delivering ballots through a harbor in Maine, the state of Maine," Stone said. "If this checks out, if law enforcement looked into that and it turned out to be true, it would be proof of foreign involvement in the election."

(19,093 posts)filled to the brim with ballots, and delivered in person by Hugo Chavez. That's what some very fine people are saying.

(6,486 posts)They have no morals, they have no bottom, they have nothing worth while to say or do. Unfortunately, the media continues to be hungry for stories. I can't imagine what it will be like after January. What the media will report as news stories will be even more horrific.

(7,715 posts)"absolute incontrovertible evidence" and "if this checks out" are contradictory. Try again, big boy.
Roger the Dodger strikes (out) again!

Didn't we used to send out the men in white coats with nets after people who stood on street corners and said shit like this?
Admins! We really need a smiley for "bat shit crazy"..."crazy" by itself just isn't enough for these guys.

Does N. Korea even have ships capable of going this far?
The unfortunate thing is that there are millions of people that believe this fantasy they're spewing every day.

(3,262 posts)SpaceX picked them up at sea while doing their own rocket launch and transferred them over to another ship for the 'last mile'.
The ship had to dock in Mexico due to engine issues. The ballots ended up being sent over The Wall by trebuchet and smuggled via Amazon packages to a port in Georgia, where they were finally put back to sea and sent up to Maine.
Their was a bit of a issue though, Amazon mixed up a couple packages and well... a Couple bundles of ballots got replaced with Colombian Snow. Thankfully a deal was made with someone in Canada, and replacement ballots were delivered via trained geese.
...And sadly, if I could recite all this with a straight face I'm sure someone would believe it.

(12,479 posts)I'm waiting for the moment when the convoluted stories, the expanded fantasies explode and believers wake up and realize the shit they've been fed for the last 4 years. Even children have their limits for flat-out lies and fantasy. When I answer a question from my son's 8-year old stepson:
"How old are you?"
And I reply, "Hummmm. I'm about 1000 years old."
Jax will giggle and say, "Nooooo. You're making that up."
Stone is talking to adults, presumably. Claiming the North Koreans dumped canisters of Biden ballots through a harbor in Maine is equivalent to me saying I'm 1000 years old. It's purposely absurd, ludicrous.
Even children have a better handle on reality.

(82,849 posts)Have Donald and Kim fallen out of love? Let's all shed a tear for the end of the line for those crazy kids and their impossible dream. I'm doubly sorry that we had to hear about this from Roger Stone. Donald is probably just prostrate with grief, hiding in his room with Eric Carmen cranked to the max.

(3,427 posts)How did any of them ever keep a straight face? I understand this has become one of the all time great camp movies. A couple years back, one of my students saw someone who reminded him of Gene Wilder, and couldn't remember Wilder's name. He referred to him as "the guy with the funny hair in Young Frankenstein." I, of course, responded with the correct pronunciation of "Frankenstein" and we were off and running. And this kid was about 16.
If I had the power to bestow immortality on anyone, it would be Mel Brooks.

(14,485 posts)Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein were both released in 1974, and my dad took a little, 12-year-old LudwigPastorious to see them both.
Thanks, Dad.

(3,427 posts)Obviously a man with a great sense of humor. My sister and I went to see Blazing Saddles when it was released. She said her husband wouldn't take her because she would laugh so hard it would him embarrass him. I was laughing too hard to notice if she did.
Can you even imagine Blazing Saddles being made today? I saw an interview with him years ago in which he said he had gotten "director's cut" rights, so he had the final say. The censors wanted a bunch of stuff out (racial stuff mostly, but Lily VonSchtup pushed the envelop, too). He said he listened to them, said "Uh-huh" and then did what he wanted. Love him.

(11,767 posts)He is a CONVICTED liar and his whole career has been political dirty tricks.
1. It WON'T check out, because it is bull shit.
2. Trump has NO friends. Kim, Putin, and others just use Trump for their own gains. To have friends, you have to have the ability to fell, share, and trust. Not one of the 3, especially Trump has those abilities, therefore no friends.

Why would he be looking to get rid of him?
And why the hell would anyone believe Roger Stone about anything. He plead guilty to lying to the Justice Department?

(8,790 posts)If the evidence is absolute and incontrovertible, is it also, by definition, already "checked out"?
