Trump Interviews Get Deleted and He Is Furious (OAN) - Christo Aivalis



Donald Trump's effort to promote his lies took a major hit because OAN is being removed from almost all coverage in the country, losing most of it's revenue. This channel was essential for Trump's false claims.

from the television as well. That's a tall order to ask, because they have bottomless sources of financing available to them. They're certainly no less guilty of disseminating false propaganda than OAN. They just have deeper pockets.

How's everything on your side of the state, Rhiannon? We're getting about 2 inches of snow an hour. We've gotten 10 - 12 inches already, and by the time Izzie is finished we'll have over 2 feet, guaranteed. ❄❄🥶❄❄

Old man winter is full of piss and vinegar tonight. He's flexing his muscles. Now if he'd only flex them again and get all of his handiwork out of my driveway. 😉

Stay warm!

And they were a couple of women I liked, but I haven't felt the same way about them since. I would love if it would disappear, too, but you know there would be an uproar. These people actually believe it's "news."

And it started snowing here after 10 last night, right on schedule, and it's still snowing. It's been down to the single digits the past few days, but this is even worse. I live on a side street off of a side street that's among the last to be cleared and so there's no way of telling how the main roads are. I'm supposed to open a meeting up in Lake George at 7 and I already made plans in case we have to cancel. I as really hoping it would miss us, but I heard on the news yesterday that this storm is supposed to affect 85 million of us.

I guess I shouldn't complain since it's not nearly as bad a winter as last year - when the first storm of the season dropped 34 inches! I had a doctor's appointment that day and tried to call to cancel, but no one answered. Turns out no one could make it to the offices and they finally called me to let me know that they were closed since no one could make it in. The joys of a New York winter. Stay safe out there!

The results of last year's initial storm:

Cancelled it Friday. Our office had a fire so I would have to drive at least 25 miles. Eye specialist. Had laser surgery, success.

Stay safe and warm. That is a bad storm.

I'm supposed to open a meeting up north at 7 tonight, it's only 10 miles, but it's mountain roads so I already made plans to cancel it if the snow continues, which it looks like that's the forecast. We've ben lucky so far this winter here in Northeastern New York so I guess we were due, but that isn't much consolation if you can't get out. It's been in the single digits for most of the past week, but this is even more frustrating - but I've lived in this area for most of my life so I should be used to it. Except when we were kids, if it snowed we were always hoping they'd close schools. *sigh*

Stay safe and warm!

As a Kid I would spend the winter in Upstate NY and I hated to shovel snow...I was so glad to come back to live in California, where you only get snow in places like Lake Tahoe.

Here in Southwest Ohio, maybe an inch, more as you go east.

Anyone tried the new electric snowblowers yet?

Stay safe and be careful. I’ve is bad.

are alright for 1-5 inches of snow, but they wouldn't put a dent in the amount of snow we have here now, and are expecting for the rest of the day. I have a Troy-Bilt 2 stage gas snow blower with a 24" width, and I'm going to have trouble keeping up with the snowfall. I'll probably have to do the entire driveway three times today, just to keep up with it.

The snow started here around 8:00 pm yesterday, and since then it's been non-stop, 2-3 inches per hour. Buffalo has been getting snowfall of 4 - 5 inches per hour.

Bottom line.....electric snowblowers would make great paper weights, but totally useless for snow removal in stuff like this.

So understand your feelings. We have gone through them all including a snow plow blade on the Tractor.. I even once had an electric shovel.

Today I pick up the phone, call my lawn care guy. But for the last few years we have never had over 4 or 5 inches, usually less.

The last 2 foot snow was 15,20 years ago.

But still stay safe. The new blowers are rechargeable.

Here in NE Ohio we got about 10 inches overnight. It is also blowing and drifting.

Oh, and fuck OAN as well as Noisemax and Faux Noise.

I would bet that the lake impacted it but we are technically not in the “snow belt”. Usually Lake County and Geauga County get hammered more than Portage County. Think may have been one of those storms that blasts down out of Canada. I didn’t pay a lot of attention to the origin when they first brought it up on the weather as I just get annoyed when they talk large accumulations.

Oh, well…

We have about 12-14 inches. My accountant who is in Madison up by the lake has 26 inches.

As previously stated I hate winter.

My dog who is part husky looked at snow this morning and was like “are you nuts?” when I tried to let him out.
