[thread] A small round up disassembling this desperate bullshit from Michael Gove
It's well written btw - deliberately so
"Scottish independence would break up our family… and families are strongest when they stick together"
A reminder: Over 100,000 dead due to the incompetence of Boris Johnson, Michael Gove and an entire government of sycophantic cronies
"THIS terrible pandemic has brought home to us all the importance of family. "
This is like when Stanley Johnson said that the UK only took coronavirus seriously when Boris Johnson got infected.
No - it didn't take a pandemic to remind me of the importance of family.

The GOP got rid of the SCOTUS filibuster so they could jam through three fringy right-wing Alito clones, including one right before the election, but sure thing, bud.
“Uh, actually, they got rid of the SCOTUS filibuster because Harry Reid did it first for something totally different! I am very smart!”
No. Knock it off.
Here’s the thing about the “But Harry Reid...” excuse:
1. McConnell was holding up Obama nominees, some *for literal years* without a vote.
2. Had he *not* done that, Trump would have inherited *even more* vacant seats.

1. There is a preponderance of evidence that the C C P were involved influencing the outcome of the US 2020 election. The details are available to those who wish to look.
I cannot be convinced that the Military didn’t watch all of this, in real time.
2. I cannot be convinced that DNI Ratcliffe isn’t investigating this matter exactly as per the 2018 Executive Order on Foreign Interference in an election.

I cannot be convinced that Biden will ever get a security clearance, even as a visitor to the WH.
3. The eyes of the world are now on the US Military and the Supreme Court (SC).
People are talking of war, cyber-terr0rism, treas0n, Chynese Military troops in Canada and US Naval ships off the coast lines.
Remain calm.
A counter-insurgency must involve the nation's citizens.
4. The importance of US Military law and the role of the SC reminded of that intriguing (almost scripted) interview between Sen. Lindsay Graham and SC Judge Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearing.

5. Firstly, Graham invoked the heartstrings by reminding everyone of the 9/11 tragedy AND then got Kavanaugh to confirm that the US was still legally at war, due the Authorization for Use of Military Force resolution of
