Facts and evidence? Sorry Jeff. MAGA’s are ‘factose’ intolerant. In fact, they are generally intolerant.

You and everyone else who can write should (yes that means me too) be excoriating this sad sack pile of shit media for turning into whores that gives real whores bad names. They have become one with the enemy, because the enemy has all the money and I ain't sayin' that they gold diggers, but they ain't messin' wit' no broke...

It's the media that will elect this fascist psychopath president again. The lead on every broadcast, whether mainstream or cable, and in the print media, is this mfkr. There's no escape. It needs to stop.

I tuned into Bret on Fox...they are offering a raffle to the "lucky winner +8 guests" a chance to go to the GOP debate! WTAF will that be? That lucky winner better watch out, they might actually be on the debate stage.

So what all the media is trying to do from cable to NYT is get that political $$ flowing. And the fake excitement that no one feels. The only "show" anyone wants is in a Feder

Please do take on the media. They’re not the least bit interested in the boring story of the rule of law. For them, it’s all about personality. Maybe we need a superhero called “Marvel: The Rule of Law!” Nah, might as well talk about the Magna Carta.

Of course not. In a Corporatocracy like ours, only the bottom line matters. Outrage and misdirection, whataboutism and flagrant lies are lucrative.

I did read the indictment. Holy shit, reading it gives one much more knowledge than snippets on the tv, but you also realize just how awful and deep this scheme really ran.

When your parking garage lawyer goes on two networks and confesses to one of your alleged crimes, you might want to check out the bargain bin lawyer section at Dollar Tree. You’d probably find better representation.

Mainstream media has made it their goal to both sides every argument. That saddens me because I have always valued the free press and thought it was their job to inform, not disseminate misinformation. Well, it is what it is.

I canceled my sub to the Grey Lady yesterday. I actually canceled it because they're jacking the rate up five bucks a month and I'm cheap as a can of off-label cheez whiz, but reading this today just affirms the correctness of my decision. 😀

Following MAGAt logic... if Trump wins the election in 2024, Biden can deny this and override the election. And after Biden passes away, Hunter Biden can become President.

These people ARE fucking idiots.

It’s overwhelming every day having to confront the anti-think tank GQP and all the money grubbing enablers (media, etc.) who continue to promote the most monstrous scum-bag with the orange anus face while he is allowed to walk freely. These enablers are sucked so far into the cesspool that they can’t find a way out even though there has been one blinking exit sign after another. They can’t tolerate the possibility of admitting that they are hypocrites, liars, power mad, dupes that have supported a disgusting sociopath that most of them hate.

The media only wants circulation and ratings. It's retail news, and whatever they think will rake in the money, that's what they will put out there.

We need to create a scale for just how far (well, low) his chorus of weasels are willing to go. A point system for glib bullshit buzzwords he’s decided his army of imbeciles have a Pavlovian reaction to. I’ll start: Rubio is at the top for me today.

Why must we be plagued with having to listen to these unwitting or, in some cases, witting Republican pawns play into Donny's grand con to steal as much as possible from the American public by whatever means possible. They all know he is genuinely an incompetent administrator that was an ineffectual and grossly corrupt President and would be even worse in a second term. While I believed months before the 2016 election that Donny was going to win (never underestimate the stupidity and ignorance of the American public) it is hard to imagine that he could win another lifetime term, yes it will be lifetime, as President. We have to believe that however many stupid, ignorant, and gullible millions of Americans there are that there are much more that see this narcistic, pathologically lying, incompetent, morally challenged individual as the lifetime con man and grifter that he as been all along.

Very well stated. It's scary as hell that 80% of the GOP still subscribes to this insanity and refuse to do the right thing. We can only hope that justice and/or the 14th Amendment will stop and put this repulsive tangerine malignancy where he belongs.

It is a pleasant thought just like he is miserable from his own actions. I heard he found it irrating or actual anger that he was being addressed as, "Mr Trump:" haha...just another bum. Just another swinging D, that of course can't stop stepping on it.

On his 2nd term he will die in office but Stalin-like no one will say anything or do anything. Maybe spray the walls with a little ketchup to keep up appearances.

Disappointed in the New York Times. Maggie Haberman strikes again. It’s bad when she writes a piece about Joe Biden not acknowledging a granddaughter. Nasty piece of work, but it’s an opinion piece, so whatcha gonna do? This is different. With democracy on the line, a reputable newspaper has a responsibility to NOT feed into the false narrative of free speech vs Donald J Trump. Stupid anal licking politicians will do that. Newspapers shouldn’t even hint at it.
