We Are Snopes Now

I just realized that we’re not just the news now – we are OFFICIALLY the fact-checkers. And DISSENTER by Gab is why.

Hat tips to Q, Andrew Torba, and our own thinkthinkthink.

Here is where it started.

Well, follow that link….

Just read this article and you can see why it raises eyebrows:

DAVIE, Fla. – A Tesla that crashed and caught fire Sunday afternoon in Davie caught fire again after it was towed away, police said.

The driver of the 2016 Tesla Model S, later identified as Omar Awan, overcorrected and lost control of the car, which traveled across three lanes on Flamingo Road, struck several trees in the median and caught fire, Davie police Sgt. Mark Leone said.

Awan, who was “burned beyond recognition,” was pronounced dead at the scene, Leone said. 

Witnesses said the Tesla was traveling anywhere from 75 to 90 mph when it crashed.

Early the next morning, the Tesla reignited and caught fire again at A Superior Towing from a ruptured battery, Leone said.

“We’ve been out here three times already,” Davie Fire Department Battalion Chief Robert DiFerdinando told Local 10 News.

Tesla released a statement about the crash Monday, saying the company would cooperate with investigators.

“We understand that speed is being investigated as a factor in this crash, and know that high speed collisions can result in a fire in any type of car, not just electric vehicles,” the statement read.

SO – we have one OMAR AWAN who dies in BROWARD COUNTY – home district of one DEBBIE WASSERMAN-SCHULTZ – of a strange ONE-CAR ACCIDENT in a SPEEDING VEHICLE that goes OUT OF CONTROL and then BURNS UP. And the guy is BURNED BEYOND ALL RECOGNITION.

Almost sounds like it can’t be real. And yet this is local news – normally trusted for stuff like accidents and whatnot.

There is another link to an earlier article with MORE details.

DAVIE, Fla. – A driver was killed Sunday after crashing his Tesla into a tree along Flamingo Road in Davie, authorities said.

https://wqth.wordpress.com/2019/02/28/dear-maga-20190228-open-topic/comment-page-2/#comment-86165The crash caused the Tesla to burst into flames.

Paramedics pronounced the driver dead at the scene. Witnesses at the scene said the Tesla was traveling at a high rate of speed before the crash.

“There was just no way anybody could have saved whoever was in there,” witness Mark Dodds, who lives nearby, said.

Police closed a portion of the southbound lanes of Flamingo Road near the crash.

In May, two teenagers were killed when their speeding Tesla crashed into a wall in Fort Lauderdale. The crash caused the car’s electric battery to catch fire.

The National Transportation Safety Board found that the Tesla’s lithium ion battery, which was the source of the fire, reignited twice — as police transported the car away from the crash scene and again when investigators tried to remove the battery from the burned-out remains of the vehicle.

Tesla has defended its electric-powered cars, saying high-speed collisions can cause fires in both gas and electric vehicles.

SO – the real question for me was whether this guy was THE Omar Awan, or just ANY Omar Awan.

A quick search of the name and the location led me to THIS article:

A DOCTOR you say?

Yes. Almost 50 years old. Definitely NOT “The” Omar Awan.

physician and father of five was killed Sunday afternoon when he lost control of his 2016 Tesla Model S sedan and hit a tree about two miles from his home in Davie, police said. The Tesla was engulfed in flames and later, while in a tow yard, reignited and burned several times.
After speaking with the Davie police department’s traffic homicide investigators, the NTSB decided not to investigate the crash, Christopher O’Neil, chief of media relations, said Tuesday. The NTSB investigates all aviation crashes but not all automotive incidents.

At that point, I went back to The Q Tree with the happy news.

Different guy. Interesting coincidence, IMO, unless it’s some kind of REALLY FAKE news.

And then I got to thinking more about things.

I could use my Dissenter browser extension to go BACK to the two articles above, where WHICH Omar Awan was not answered, and WARN people that this wasn’t “The” Omar Awan.

Which I did.

Then I decided to get fancy and say something at the article that I used to solve the problem:

Notice that NOBODY can remove these, except Gab, which is severely disinclined to do so.

That’s when it hit me – WE were now SNOPES, and nobody can stop us.

With those thoughts, I went back to The Q Tree and bragged some more!

This is where I started getting downright giddy with the idea of replacing the EVIL Snopes!!!

Now THAT was when I began thinking of my favorite misleading news site, Cloverfield – whoops – I mean THE CLOVER CHRONICLE.

Surely they would have this story – right? OH HELL YEAH!!!

https://cloverchronicle.com/2019/02/26/omar-awan-dies-in-fiery-tesla-crash-in-broward-county-fl-body-is-burned-beyond-recognition/

Notice the frigging link at the bottom! Fox News!

But is it a link to an actual story? NO! Of course not. It’s a link to the Fox News homepage – just BULLSHIT to give an “official-looking” link.

Still, there’s value because of a graphic video of the burning wreck.

So what do I do? I am FINALLY able to TALK BACK TO CLICKBAIT!

“Browardstan”! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Hey – you ought to hear my made-up names for redneck and hillbilly towns and regions – I’m an equal opportunity joker! And it’s JUST A FRIGGIN’ JOKE.

Ya Democrat MAROONS! 😉

So where was I?

Yes. We are NOW the news – and MOAR.

“WE. IS. SNOPES.”

Oh, how I love that.

And we can leave TIPS for each other, DEBUNKS for each other, and all kinds of USEFUL stuff, too.

We may not LOOK like Snopes…..

……but frankly, I think we look more respectable…..

…..although, I just had to entertain the idea of having fun with our future.


Enjoy the future, people. We appear to be the early adopters.

Just ask Q.

Dear MAGA: 20190214 Open Topic

This wonderful VALENTINE’S DAY Open Thread is VERY OPEN.

You can say what you want, comment on what other people said, and so on. Keep it civil. Rules much like the Old Treehouse, except of course Q discussion is not only allowed but encouraged. A couple of other important things to consider. This here link….

https://wqth.wordpress.com/2019/01/01/dear-maga-open-topic-20190101/

….contains some general guidelines for things that are really, really not kosher to post here. Avoid those things, and we’ll have a GREAT TIME!!!

Also consider Wheatie’s Rules (as amended by SteveInCO):

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
  4. No shooting at the nuclear warheads.

Yeah. No shooting at the nukes. LOL!

Remember – this is a free speech zone. Barring the few minor things that can get this site closed down, you ain’t gonna get banned.

The current plan for Dear MAGA threads is to switch to a format where people have ONE NIGHT A WEEK that they take care of the thread. For example, Wheatie will put up the SATURDAY thread on FRIDAY NIGHT.

  • Wednesday – Wolf
  • Thursday – Wolf
  • Friday – Wolf (but this Friday, SteveInCO)

If anybody else would be interested in being a Dear MAGA author one night a week, feel free to let me know.

Remember that our greatest gift to President Trump is PRAYER!

WE ARE PRAYING FOR YOU!

And let us pray YET AGAIN for an end to the slaughter of the unborn, particularly when they have almost made it safe and sound into this world, and are being cruelly cut down just before birth by those who profit on their deaths.

Let us further pray that INFANTICIDE never again appears on this planet as an acceptable practice!


Hope you had some FUN seeing these pictures of POTUS and FLOTUS!

House of Saddam Doubles Down

They’re nuts. The House of Commies, also known as the House of Jihad, or collectively as the House of Saddam, continues it’s psychotic slide into both secular and religious communism.

Ocasio-Cortez Defends Rashida Tlaib Calling Trump ‘Motherf**ker’: ‘I Got Your Back’

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/01/05/ocasio-cortez-defends-rashida-tlaib-calling-trump-motherfker-i-got-your-back/

I don’t know, people, but there is something about these chicks. THE EYES.

So anyway, they’re doubling down.

Finer ears should turn back now. VULGARITY ENSUES.


Other than the massive leftist distortion of facts…….

…….I’m sorry, but describing tried-and-true lovemaking techniques in shockingly crude brevity is neither “admission” nor “sexual assault”, “Sandy”……..

…….AOC’s tweet is actually on point regarding the basic idea of hypocrisy.

However, she fails to connect her fine mind to the absolutely wrong LEVELS of outrage.

If Trump’s “locker room talk” was just that, then I would say the response of Republicans to Tlaib’s own locker room talk was just about pitch perfect.

However, thanks to pussy-grabbing (all 57 genders) leftist FAKE OUTRAGE, Trump’s “g-‘e-b-t-p” comment – WHICH HE HIMSELF DID NOT STATE PUBLICLY, BY THE WAY – was treated as something close to “world-ending” for two weeks. And Tlaib? Yeah. She got some outrage on Twitter for a day. I mean, “c’mon!” (in Jeb quotes).

Methinks the leftists doth protest too much AT ALL TIMES.

Seriously – they seem NUTS.

Tlaib is a criminal, by the way – easily checked out online. All sorts of fraud. The woman is a huge security risk. THAT is what people should really be talking about, when she’s not advocating for the destruction of Israel.

Hmmmm. Maybe that’s big, too.

As for AOC……

Yeah.

Just sayin’. Keep this one away from the red button.

AYE-YI-YI. Just another day in Commietown, D.C.
