  • From the telegraph article:

    Imran Khan has been granted bail by a Pakistani court for one of the cases against him but the ex-prime minister is likely to remain in jail because of a host of other charges.

    On Wednesday, Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb, of the Islamabad High Court, accepted the former cricketer’s bail plea in a trial relating to alleged illegal sale of state gifts.

    But there was “no chance” of his release because of at least eight other charges against him, Pakistan’s information minister said.

    “Release for him is not possible; there are many other cases he needs to secure bail in,” Attaullah Tarar told Pakistani media.

    Mr Tarar added that the eight other charges related to the “mayhem” of May 9 2023, when Khan’s supporters rioted and stormed the Pakistani army’s headquarters in response to his arrest.

    Seems like something brewing behind the scenes after the US election considering they were stalling all these cases since August last year.




  • Poor soul thinks said corporate media somehow exists completely outside of the scope of the DNC as if the DNC itself isn’t just a convention for corporate donors to show up and throw in their demands in exchange for campaign funds and lobbying money.

    I mean I’m sure the headline NYT article about Clinton having a 91% chance of winning was totally some next level corporate funded psyop and not a one of the many thousands of advertisements paid for by the DNC. /s

    No, it’s totally the corporate media that’s after her and has absolutely nothing to do with the candidate that dropped the entire uncommitted movement worth of constituents for $100 mil in corporate AIPAC money. /s

    Wasn’t there a recent conspiracy theory that the establishment doesn’t want Trump (hence the assassination attempts) because he’s an easily manipulated loose canon who doesn’t follow orders like a good shill should lol?

    Point being that dems lost this election because they are inherently more pro establishment and have been for a while.
