Discuss Henry Cavill

A thread for MI6.

While discussing the sixth film in the franchise, "Mission: Impossible — Fallout," at CinemaCon on Wednesday, Cruise detailed one of the film's action sequences, in which Cruise's Ethan Hunt jumps from a plane at nearly 30,000 feet to catch Henry Cavill's free-falling character.

To get the three shots that he and director Christopher McQuarrie (who returns after directing "Mission Impossible — Rogue Nation") wanted, Cruise jumped out of a C-17 plane 106 times.

Many died of COVID-19 because of Trump. And the economic crisis is also his fault. So every American should vote for Biden. But Biden is allegedly a pedophile. What a conundrum. Trump is a misogynist and allegedly into incest.

I think they should vote for Kanye West. laughing

18 Revelations From a Trove of Trump Tax Records

The New York Times has obtained tax-return data for President Trump and his companies that covers more than two decades. Mr. Trump has long refused to release this information, making him the first president in decades to hide basic details about his finances.

Mr. Trump paid no federal income taxes in 11 of 18 years that The Times examined. In 2017, after he became president, his tax bill was only $750.

10/03/2020 Eamon Javers, Washington Correspondent for CNBC, covering the Trump White House
An odd note was just shared with the White House press pool by an anonymous official, which seems to be opposite in tone from what we just heard from the president’s doctors...
... A source familiar with the President's health says on background: "The President's vitals over last 24 hours were very concerning and the next 48 hours will be critical in terms of his care. We are still not on a clear path to a full recovery."
To be clear for people who don’t know how this works: the source spoke to the press pool on condition of anonymity. Those reporters know the identity of this person. The reporters made a judgement that the person is reliable and passed comment along to the wider WH press corps.

The White House lied? I thought gay hags are the only ones spreading fake news. rofl

Trump’s crazy arse made politics interesting. The train wreck he created is THE reality show to follow online. I don’t want to follow it because it’s awful. People died and are dying because of that fool. But I just can’t stop following it. Yesterday, he left the hospital for a drive-past. He endangered the Secret Service staff inside the car, because it’s hermetically sealed against chemical attack, said Dr James Philips from the same hospital where he's being treated.

I also rolled my eyes when I heard he got COVID-19. I’m surprised the son of dog didn’t get it sooner with all those rallies. I guess his old, obese arse has a better chance of surviving now. The novel virus isn’t so novel anymore. Doctors know a little more about it now. They know which drugs to use to treat some symptoms. And most importantly, they can treat you with antibodies.

Oops! Hilarious. And the gay hags will turn only gay fake news into fact without checking the source. Actually, they only get excited about gay news, because they left a nice piece of non-gay news unspread. It’s not even a rumor. Anybody can find it online. I expected the threesome lovers to come from out of the shadows and start rumors about threesome, HC isn’t into them, his family doesn’t like them, they had a fight, they’re gold digger, they’re attention seekers etc. Maybe coordinating and synchronizing consume all their time. laughing

Fake rumors always start on hate pages when there are no real private news. Those old hags waste time on BS while there’s something real that they could speculate about. BTW, one of the hate pages is gone. One of the stalker ones that followed people with the surname Cavill. lol

A simple Google search won’t do anymore. Haters stalk everybody linked to HC. Fans want to see HC and know what he does while haters want to know about HC’s family and everybody connected to him. laughing

I wonder if it could be work-related. It's strike two now in a very short time. The last one was completely out of the “blue”. HC’s probably up to something. thinking

BTW, did you notice the new childish strategy of the usual suspects? I rolled my eyes and almost swear. I mean, really? The other team? And the snitch was right again. There was a huge error followed by lots of new info. rolling_eyes

And there was also the fun little game from a known but not usual suspect. Red flag! They might know more than they’re letting on. But not revealing much was obviously the fun part. rofl

BREAKING: JOE BIDEN WINS

Joe Biden will be the 46th president of the United States, CNN projects, after a victory in Pennsylvania puts the Scranton-born Democrat over 270

https://twitter.com/CNN/status/1325116047297572869

So I was wrong. The Keeping Up With Baby Trump reality show isn’t coming to end any time soon. He’s yelling FRAUD and suing everybody. This is hilarious. Things like people who don’t exist voted, dead people voted and ballots could have arrived from Mars are just a few of the crap that people who lost, got caught or made a mess say to feel better. laughing

Trump made a huge mess and got caught lying many times. So he’s just another big old man with no balls engaging in childish games. Unfortunately for ball-less baby Trump, the Democrat voters do exist, are alive and they’re from Earth.

Anyway, the Democrats shouldn’t celebrate yet, though. Trump thinks that the Supreme Court can make him the winner. He could win if the Supreme Court has the power to say that the counting should have stopped x days ago. astonished

These pics are beautiful.

Biden should step down (a month after being president) and let Kamala Harris be president. He’s making the Democrats look bad, because they’re the supporters of #metoo and #timesup. But in this article you can read about the women who have spoken out against Biden.

Metoo is about believing women when they tell their stories. Timesup is about stopping men in power from getting away after doing something bad. Now the Democrats have giving more power to an old perv. They also question those who accused him. Hypocrites? All this to get another old perv and lunatic out of the WH. rofl

BBC News

Joe Biden assault claim: What does 'believe women' mean now?

The debate over what it means to "believe women" - the rallying cry of the #MeToo movement - has escalated in recent weeks [2018] over a sexual assault allegation lodged against Joe Biden.

arrow_right Side note: "I don’t know why after 27 years all of a sudden this gets raised," said Biden.

arrow_right Side note: In 1991, Biden was at the helm of perhaps the most infamously botched treatment of a sexual-harassment allegation—the Senate hearing on Clarence Thomas’s nomination to the Supreme Court. Biden was then the chairman of the Judiciary Committee and directed the hearing; his handling of Anita Hill’s allegations looks worse year after year. Biden failed to call witnesses who could have corroborated Hill’s allegations; he also allowed Republican senators to attack her relentlessly; they asked her, among other things, if she was “a scorned woman.” On Sunday, Reade told Fox News that seeing Biden and other senators mistreat Hill deterred her from reporting her own assault to the police in 1993.

The accusation by a former staff assistant, Tara Reade, raises uncomfortable questions for Democratic voters who previously said women's complaints should be listened to and treated as credible.

The expression "believe women" - and its sister phrase: "believe survivors" - rose to prominence in tandem with the #MeToo movement […]

"The reason that became a mantra was because interwoven so deeply in our culture was the idea that women and survivors were lying," said Fatima Goss Graves, president of the National Women's Law Center. Their concerns were deemed "so inherently suspect they were not worthy of being treated seriously".

Less than a year later [2018] the phrase gained momentum when, in the midst of his confirmation to the US Supreme Court, Justice Brett Kavanaugh was accused of sexual assault by Christine Blasey Ford when the two were in high school [1982]. MeToo movement founder Tarana Burke led a national walkout in solidarity of Blasey Ford three days before her testimony, with participants using the hashtag #BelieveSurvivors.

It became a refrain among high-profile supporters of Blasey Ford and a number of high-profile Democrats pushing for further investigation of her claims, including Joe Biden.

arrow_right Side note: Biden did not ask why after 36 years all of a sudden Blasey Ford is accusing Kavanaugh.

Biden 2018 statement: “For a woman to come forward in the glaring light of focus, nationally, you've got to start off with the presumption that at least the essence of what she's talking about is real” [“whether or not she forgets facts, whether or not it’s been made worse or better over time. But nobody fails to understand that this is like jumping into a cauldron”].

[…] saying months later in an interview for PBS, that "women should be believed".

arrow_right Side note: The memories of Hill’s mistreatment in 1991 made Biden vowed “to see to it that we basically change the culture in this country, where a woman is put in a position that she is disbelieved.”

arrow_right Side note: Biden called for an FBI investigation into Blasey Ford's claims before the Senate voted on Kavanaugh's confirmation.

Now, facing allegations of his own, Biden has been heavily criticised for an apparent about-face.

arrow_right Side note: Last Friday [2020], MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski read back to Biden his own statement from 2018 […] Brzezinski asked whether that means Reade should be believed now. Biden responded that “believing women means taking the woman’s claim seriously when she steps forward, and then vet it. Look into it.” Biden may still have to account for his previous endorsement of a “presumption” in an accuser’s favor, which goes against the presumption of innocence on which he may implicitly rely now. Complicating the situation for Biden, on Wednesday, Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos issued Title IX regulations requiring that campus sexual-misconduct proceedings use a “presumption of non-responsibility,” turning away from Title IX reforms that Biden himself led. He will, of course, be called upon to condemn DeVos’s regulations, but in doing so might suggest that his own accuser’s claims shouldn’t be subjected to rigorous questioning, or that other accused people shouldn’t benefit from the thorough examination of an accusation’s credibility that might help save his candidacy.

arrow_right Side note: Biden openly invited reporters to investigate, pointing to "responsible news organizations" that "should examine and evaluate the full and growing record of inconsistencies in her [Reade] story, which has changed repeatedly in both big and small ways." However, he has not called for an FBI investigation into his allegations as he did for Kavanaugh.

arrow_right Side note: Though Biden says he is completely open to an investigation, he would not commit to allowing access to his University of Delaware Senate records collection, expressing concern some contents may be "taken out of context" while he runs for office. He also questioned who would be tasked with filtering through the records. Reade has said she believes her complaint or separation letter may be stored there […]

"'Believe survivors' never meant that was the beginning and the end of the inquiry," Goss Graves said. "What it means is that you take it seriously."

To some, the definition of "believe women" has expanded and contracted to suit the political needs of the moment. Reade's claims invited a rush of appraisals of high-profile Democrats - especially women - weighing their response to Biden against past comments directed at Brett Kavanaugh.

"It's difficult for survivors to see that a woman who has more corroborating sources than most survivors have in similar situations is being tossed aside and actively being weaponised by cynical political actors," said Shaunna Thomas, a founder of women's rights advocacy group UltraViolet, of Reade to the New York Times.

Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Senator Amy Klobuchar and Stacey Abrams - all high-profile Democrats, all reportedly short-listed as Biden's running mate - were asked if they would still support the former vice-president.

Abrams, like the other Democratic women asked to speak up for Biden, was charged with a political two-step: appearing to champion Blasey Ford while abandoning Reade.

"Why are many people still refusing to believe Reade?" wrote Kate Manne in The Nation. "Among the primary reasons... sheer political inconvenience."

For anyone who wants Trump out of office in November, "admitting the credibility of Reade's claims at this moment is painful and inconvenient indeed", Manne said.

Still, the burden of defending Biden will surely fall to his vice-presidential pick, who he has pledged will be a woman - adding a stumbling block to the coveted job offer.

[…] in November, American voters will be handed ballots in which both major party candidates [Biden and Trump] have been accused of sexual misconduct.

"How can you support this person who's going against the standards you set for somebody else? At the end of the day, this is what voters are left with," said Amy Walter, national editor of the Cook Political Report on NBC News. "How they battle this cognitive dissonance. And usually partisanship is what breaks the tie."

arrow_right Side note: Last year [2019], seven women came forward to describe demeaning conduct by Biden, including unwanted kissing in public. In response, Biden described himself as “a tactile politician.” He added, “That gets me in trouble as well, because I think I can feel and taste what is going on.” If Biden were a male student or professor who had touched and sniffed women on a college campus in the ways he has been repeatedly captured doing on camera, he would likely be in deep trouble as a disciplinary matter, in large part because of reforms that Biden himself led. Although many have resisted calling his behavior sexual harassment, that is how an allegation of that pattern of behavior would likely be treated by today’s campus policies and culture. This raises the question of whether it makes sense that Biden may receive the Democratic nomination for President, while a student or professor who engaged in the same conduct would be disciplined on a campus reformed under Biden’s efforts. Or, for that matter, that Biden has the support of Democratic senators, including Kirsten Gillibrand, who led the charge in pressuring Al Franken to resign his Senate seat two years ago, without an investigation, for alleged conduct that was less serious. (Franken himself might well have been a 2020 Presidential contender.)

It's an uncomfortable calculation for Democrats, for whom support for Biden is not so much an endorsement of their candidate and as it is a guard against Trump's re-election.

"We cannot have Trump in office a day longer than his current term," said Clara Masters, a political organiser in upstate New York […] "My only option is to vote for Biden."

"I feel like a hypocrite now, but too much is at stake."
