Yes, Susan, I want Faux News to pay so much they have to declare bankruptcy! Then we could save our democracy by them not lying about everything, and blaming corporate price gouging on President Biden.
Unfortunately, there only a very small number of independent journalism outlets these days, when the radical right has bought all the major newspapers and TV stations.
I did some quick Googling and cant find a date. I thought it was going to happen the first quarter of 2024. It's a big amount of money though...like 2.7 Billion Dollars, so maybe thats why. I found this, though: "Lead attorney for Dominion Voting Systems, Davida Brook, reports that Dominion has lawsuits are now pending against Newsmax, One America News (OAN), Mike Lindell and his MyPillow Company, Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Powell's law firm, and former Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne. Those cases, says Brook, are “all proceeding towards trial.” The first lawsuit is expected to reach trial in the fall of 2024. Smartmatic has a similar list of lawsuits pending and their case against Fox News is likely to take some time."
these companies cant be expected to consider other than their own econ interests -- begs: how the fuck did it come to be that privately held companies control data in our elections?
Diestel, the brand carried by Whole Foods, probably in his bejillions $$$$ neighborhood. From Diestel’s website: “Using regenerative agriculture, fresh pine-wood shavings line the barns, natural and organic cleaners, and generous spaces for the birds to roam. Global Animal Partnership Step 5 rating.” Nobody, absolutely nobody, has to pay that price.
Those turkeys live way better than most fox watchers. Did he just assume that because his high-end, whole foods bird was $115, everyone else's Butterball must be around $90? What a jerk.
Wait, so that dickhead buys a "liberal" turkey and is complaining about the price? Let him go out and shoot one himself! What a smooth brain. WTF? Asshole.
wow -- he's paying a small fortune to eat a turkey that doesnt consume pesticide-laced grain, live in a shithole factory (literally) on grounds riddled with herbicides and fungicides and all the other lovely cides -- is he a climate crank? or, god forbid, an environmentalist? likely not given his espousal of monsanto -- i guess he's cool with us plebes getting poisoned, so long as he can buy safety we cant afford -- douche extraordinaire
Bought from a farm in the "People's Republic of California"...That guy is a joke (and he doesn't even know it"...) Also, the price tag showed $114... Did he get a Elist former House member discount?
The very dunce who abruptly left office under some shady circumstances and unpalatably bad whispered stories. No wonder he could only be welcomed at Fox Propaganda. Even the lobbyists couldn't stomach him for a cause.
On the MSM news I’ve heard that turkey prices are down, inflation is down and several other commodities are down. The only places where they’re not down is households where they watch Faux. Stores are making sure those people pay higher so they can bitch and complain. Thanks, Joe!🙄
I would like to know what MSM stations you listen to! I haven’t turned on my TV in months! MSM is so biased towards the right, because they are owned by the wealthy! After the GOP, who takes bribes from them, has made them millions extra since 2017! The rest of us? Not so much! We have become the working poor! That is why I can’t understand, why we don’t band together against the Wealthy AND the GOP! They are the true enemies of the workers! Vote Blue!
My favorite comment on Twitter: “And, let's not forget - IT'S A WOKE TURKEY -- YOU bought a WOKE turkey from a WOKE farm! Whole Foods-esque - 100% Vegetarian Fed, Raised w/out Antibiotics, no preservatives....”
what the fuck is a WOKE turkey? Turkeys are such stupid birds anyway. What, will it leap off the table and recite the Gettysburg address before being knifed?🙄
Yeah, that’s what the commenter refers to: The climate wokeness of sustainable practices, and the animal rights wokeness. Those are all important to me, but to the GOP they are, ahem, red meat issues.
Happy Thanksgiving to all the wonderful people on this post-especially you Jeff! I assume you will take tomorrow off-as you should! Meanwhile-I’ll be eating a turkey-that didn’t cost much at all and I’ll be sleeping due to the tryptophan by 7 pm! Have a nice holiday everyone!
The Republican Faux News blames the dead turkeys on Biden. The Republicans have blamed everything on the Democrats since 1951 when I got here. Inflation is so high, the economy is terrible, the American people are suffering. That is the Republican mantra.
Listen, the Hope Walmart has pallets of Black Friday stuff blocking the aisles. They have people guarding the pallets because shoppers are trying to help themselves to tomorrow's "bargains".
Watch and see how the big retailers report record sales over the weekend. Sure sounds like suffering Americans. Maybe they are desperate. Working people don't get big income tax refunds and have to pay more in thanks to the last guy. The last guy is such a pissant that he did anything he could to screw over the American people. It's the Republican Way.
Ignore them and have a blessed Thanksgiving for all the right reasons.
I did almost the same at Meijer last week, but with my Mperks, I got $1.00/gal off! :D Gotta love this "horrific" economy that's allowing us to get all this stuff cheaper than last year. :D
I don't get the point of lying about the prices of stuff. If Fox has news of a $90 turkey but no one else can find one anywhere, what would that even prove? "We said we paid $90 for a turkey but none of you did so Biden bad!"?
Trying to understand what these people call thinking hurts my head.
It proves they’re idiots for spending that much. I only made turkey one time for Thanksgiving, total pain in the ass and too much left over. I make a nice roast chicken.
There are two people in my house. I got a 3-pound Butterball boneless turkey breast for $11.99 at Aldi. Stove-top stuffing (cornbread! Mmmm), whole cranberry sauce, and we're done. Leftovers for a day, maybe, and no need to drop out an oven rack to cook it. Perfection!
It is remarkable that Fox ‘News’ admitted lying to its viewers and yet, people still tune in. It’s like “we know they are lying, but their lies validate what I think on those occasions when I attempt thought.
Notice how they haven't been talking about the price of gas. They don't want you to notice how much less it is. Or the abundance of inexpensive ham.? And can I mention that poultry prices have been high this year thanks to a very bad bird flu that required culling of flocks? Yeah. I'm not sure you can replace all those turkeys on a dime. Haven't they noticed the chicken wing shortage all year? And they call themselves "news" people. That's not what I call them.
This is a crime being committed that nothing is done about. Intentional lies, misleading stories, damaging rhetoric. We need to constantly point out that the greedy money hoarders are the ones putting money behind this lie machine.
Maybe the multi-billionaires running the Faux Fairytale station should ensure that those without gifts can get them by the wealth hoarders paying their fair share of taxes. (As ANY “good” christian would do)…cough, cough.
For someone so “sleepy,” President Biden sure gets a lot done: traveling the globe like an anti-Santa being sure we can’t afford a Thanksgiving dinner, negotiating hostage release and supplies to Gaza without a mention of his name from legacy media except to tell us lefties we all hate him for not doing more. It boggles the mind that such a sleep guy gets so much done without even a thank-you (for the good stuff, of course, although Faux Noise probably thinks suffering is good).
Please Uncle Jeff, make the lawsuit from Smartmatic coming up make Faux News pay eleventy skillion dollars. 🤞
Uncle Jeff; you hit my laugh and cackle button big time this morning!
Yes, Susan, I want Faux News to pay so much they have to declare bankruptcy! Then we could save our democracy by them not lying about everything, and blaming corporate price gouging on President Biden.
Absolutely... I truly believe Fox and their constant propaganda fuels the divisiveness we’re experiencing. So, long live independent journalism!! 👏👏👏
Unfortunately, there only a very small number of independent journalism outlets these days, when the radical right has bought all the major newspapers and TV stations.
True that. But we have Jeff and Jay and Joyce! ✌️ have a great day tomorrow!🦃🦃
The same to you! I had a great time yesterday, hoping to repeat it soon. 🦃🦃🦃❤️
Haven’t heard about Smartmatic for months! When’s the trial?
I did some quick Googling and cant find a date. I thought it was going to happen the first quarter of 2024. It's a big amount of money though...like 2.7 Billion Dollars, so maybe thats why. I found this, though: "Lead attorney for Dominion Voting Systems, Davida Brook, reports that Dominion has lawsuits are now pending against Newsmax, One America News (OAN), Mike Lindell and his MyPillow Company, Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Powell's law firm, and former Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne.

Smartmatic has a similar list of lawsuits pending and their case against Fox News is likely to take some time."
Thanks! You worked harder than I did to find something. Much appreciated!
Happy Thanksgiving.
You as well....grab a second piece of pie for me! 👍😂
Oh, please oh please!!!
Fingers crossed
Eleventy skilion billion .
Ooooohhh..... Charlie! I'd have to take my shoes off to count that high! I sure as hell hope so! Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving Susan.
Same to ya! Gonna be a nice quiet lazy day. (Enjoy your pork roast!) 👍
I will.
these companies cant be expected to consider other than their own econ interests -- begs: how the fuck did it come to be that privately held companies control data in our elections?
Agree! I was disappointed!
Oh yes I hope so too!!
Amen. I think a great public trial and a bigger award from the jury sounds about right?
The lawyers were employed by Dominion to get what they could get for the corporation. WE were never considered.
Chaffetz's $90 Turkey was an locally raised artisanal bird hand-reared and fes, with massages every afternoon. Yeah, man of the people that.
I know. he tweeted about it here: https://twitter.com/jasoninthehouse/status/1727017369460252782
Diestel, the brand carried by Whole Foods, probably in his bejillions $$$$ neighborhood.

THAT is a perfect observation. I love the twitter responses with receipts for turkeys that cost nothing in comparison, $36 for a 22-pound bird.
I hope keep it up...such bs
Because they are WORSE THAN S-T-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-P-I-D ! They assume their followers are dumber than they are.
Wait, so that dickhead buys a "liberal" turkey and is complaining about the price? Let him go out and shoot one himself! What a smooth brain. WTF? Asshole.
I’m sure he’d love the taste of a wild turkey that roams on the side of highways throughout the USA or Canada.
That turkey is WOKE!!!
wow -- he's paying a small fortune to eat a turkey that doesnt consume pesticide-laced grain, live in a shithole factory (literally) on grounds riddled with herbicides and fungicides and all the other lovely cides -- is he a climate crank? or, god forbid, an environmentalist? likely not given his espousal of monsanto -- i guess he's cool with us plebes getting poisoned, so long as he can buy safety we cant afford -- douche extraordinaire
Totally-such a dick
Diesel meats aren’t cheap.
No. But it's once a year. Our local store allows people to donate for the people who can't afford it. They raised a lot.
Yes, I’ve donated turkeys and complete sides before. Worth every penny to make someone’s Thanksgiving special
Bought from a farm in the "People's Republic of California"...That guy is a joke (and he doesn't even know it"...) Also, the price tag showed $114... Did he get a Elist former House member discount?
The very dunce who abruptly left office under some shady circumstances and unpalatably bad whispered stories. No wonder he could only be welcomed at Fox Propaganda. Even the lobbyists couldn't stomach him for a cause.
And wanted members of congress to get a housing stipend.
wait -- that's socialism -- trump gon git em
Well, fed, but you get the idea
On the MSM news I’ve heard that turkey prices are down, inflation is down and several other commodities are down. The only places where they’re not down is households where they watch Faux. Stores are making sure those people pay higher so they can bitch and complain. Thanks, Joe!🙄
And Andrea Mitchell, commentator mummy and woman incapable of not adding to every story, “but Joe Biden...” sad face.....
She needs to go. I'm tired of her and her depressed face and inability to get a statement or question out coherently. I refuse to watch her.
She used to be competent. Time to retire
She's 77. I'm 66 and can't wait to retire. And she's married to Alan Greenspan, it's not like they need the dough.
I retired 3 years ago, a little ahead of schedule and zero regrets.
Ditto!
Long long ago
Television pundits just read the newspaper to people who don't. It's not much, but maybe better than nothing.
Well look at she married!
Mrs.Elmer Fudd.
And talk about some people needing to retire...
Those “commie, socialist, antifa, store owners” are in cahoots with sleepy Joe! lol I always enjoy your comments Kay! Happy Thanksgiving!
Lisa
Thank you and back at you Lisa!
Opportunistic retail and not 'inflation'.
I would like to know what MSM stations you listen to! I haven’t turned on my TV in months! MSM is so biased towards the right, because they are owned by the wealthy!

For general evening news I watch NBC, for politics MSNBC, for “print” type news (though I’m all digital these days), AP and The Guardian.
My favorite comment on Twitter: “And, let's not forget - IT'S A WOKE TURKEY -- YOU bought a WOKE turkey from a WOKE farm! Whole Foods-esque - 100% Vegetarian Fed, Raised w/out Antibiotics, no preservatives....”
what the fuck is a WOKE turkey? Turkeys are such stupid birds anyway. What, will it leap off the table and recite the Gettysburg address before being knifed?🙄
Organic, free range, sustainable practices. IMHO.
Yeah, that’s what the commenter refers to: The climate wokeness of sustainable practices, and the animal rights wokeness. Those are all important to me, but to the GOP they are, ahem, red meat issues.
Quadratic equations.
Do you know, turkeys are so dumb, the drown themselves looking upwards in a rain storm? No such thing as a woke turkey, they are all stupid!
look -- at least he wasnt gonna eat woke crudite.....what the hell does that shit cost these days?
“Crudités” is a woke word, signaling liberals and that got Dr. Oz in his snack dangles.
It got him, THANKFULLY!!!
so all crudite is woke -- and use of the word, even, is woke
fine by me -- bc i hope im woke -- i try anyway
Me, too. I work on woke.
Happy Thanksgiving to all the wonderful people on this post-especially you Jeff! I assume you will take tomorrow off-as you should! Meanwhile-I’ll be eating a turkey-that didn’t cost much at all and I’ll be sleeping due to the tryptophan by 7 pm! Have a nice holiday everyone!

Darrell-I’m with you. Don’t repeat what THEY want us to repeat.
I’m in the middle of Michigan and just filled my gas tank for $2.89 a gallon. Thanks “Sleepy” Joe Biden!!!
I did almost the same at Meijer last week, but with my Mperks, I got $1.00/gal off! :D Gotta love this "horrific" economy that's allowing us to get all this stuff cheaper than last year. :D

Better yet, I visit people who cook, or order ready-made🦃
Yep! I had surgery a few weeks before Christmas one year and no way was I cooking. I bought a complete meal from a local store. Delicious.
I don't care for turkey. I do pork roast.
Enjoy!!
Fox is nothing but propaganda. Just ask Dominion and Smartmatic. Or just watch 5 minutes of Bartiromo.
god these columns irritate me I don't know why I read them keep them coming.
Hahahaha! Honestly, ditto!
😂😂
Postscript: I loved that Brooks smackdown. Even Taco Bell at airports cost a bazillion dollars
Exactly! Who the hell eats at an airport anyway unless they're in some stage of starvation?
Captive audience.
Thanks Jeff!
