Tbh it was on Fox News, but they were framing the thing like "-admitted he was aware the call was leaked" like HE was the criminal. The projection and deflection from this is just amazing. | 1State Anger

This is what is so wrong with the media.
Kids go to journalism school and learn all the basic principles of good professional journalism.
They then get jobs on biased media platforms and are forced to ditch most of those rules.
Rules such as give a balanced account of what happened, focus on the facts and check them thoroughly, avoid selective reporting or overly simplistic reporting, go where the facts take you not where your proprietor's prejudices demand you go.
In an ideal world, journalists are there to highlight the wrongdoings of those in power, regardless of their party and to hold them to account.
They have an important job. Ultimately, they are there to protect freedom and democracy.
They are not there to suppress inconvenient truths and misrepresent or distort what is happening. When they do stuff like that, they inflict on democracy enormous damage. | 0Trait Anger

Shannon Bream on Fox News tonight said something about how "the media" is portraying the call as Trump demanding Georgia find more votes for him but that she "heard something very different" when she listened to the call. She then played a bunch of clips of people on CNN saying that what Trump did in that call was completely inexcusable, etc. but at no point did she play any actual parts of the call or explain what it was that she "heard differently." | 1State Anger

They deleted so many threads of this in r/conservative 🙄
I literally read pages of conservatives bemoaning how bad this made trump look then poof, half a day later gone.
They whine about "brigading" all day even with their fruity mandatory flaire and discord interview system. Utterly ridiculous
It'll bite them in the ass when all they hear and see is the undeleted stuff while half of conservatives actually aren't insane and are done playing the game seeing how everyone's a loser and there's no spin other than to just delete | 2Anger Expression

> Were it not for McConnell’s efforts to rally big Republican contributors behind Trump, there probably wouldn’t be a President Trump. Never-Trump Republican operative Stuart Stevens, a former George W. Bush and Mitt Romney adviser, calls McConnell “Trump’s Franz von Papen,” the German politician who dissolved the Weimar Republic.
> Now McConnell supposes he can turn all that off. He’s telling Senate colleagues not to reject the electoral college results on Wednesday — not because it’s an inherently authoritarian act but because he doesn’t want Republicans to face a “terrible vote” — either against Trump or against constitutional democracy. He told them the Jan. 6 vote would be “the most consequential I have ever cast.”

Mitch is just the figurehead.
All the senators who allow him to remain in power are complicit, and it's honestly surprising that people continue to allow the guy to serve as a lightning rod for EVERY. SINGLE. (R)EGRESSIVE. SENATOR.
It would take a total of THREE republican senators to cross the aisle during a vote tomorrow and replace McConnell as Majority Leader. None of them do, because they're all criminals. What kind of dirt do US adversaries have on dozens of top-ranking US legislatures? People should be way more worried about that than some old, leathery turtle. | 0Trait Anger

The **SENATE** will not do enough. Stop pre-blaming Biden when we know where the actual problem is.
Biden would do twice as much as the senate if the Democrats win Georgia, let alone if they lose. Being further left of Biden only matters if the Senate would pass something left of Biden. | 1State Anger

To paraphrase Elizabeth Warren: "Right now you're filthy stinking rich, if you elect Democrats you'll *still* be filthy stinking rich, you'll just pay slightly higher taxes."
(In this case "slightly higher" means an additional $4 trillion, but that amounts to pocket change for these folks.)
Yep, if you're a capitalist the Democrats are a good party for you! Lots of government spending, stable, rational economic policy, investments in education, infrastructure, and research and development, sane foreign policy, reliable economic growth, lots of job creation.... like, if getting rich is your goal, Democrats are a better bet than Republicans are.
Seriously, slightly higher taxes and a few more regulations don't undo the incredible good Democrats have done for the American economy over the years. Maybe you pay an extra billion in taxes, that sucks, but you also make an extra one point five billion in profits, that seems like a fair trade to me. | 2Anger Expression

Moderates are generally pro-corporate on both sides.
Its why Biden never had to answer any hard questions about his unyielding support for unfettered capitalism and his promise of no real change.
Right-wingers and left-wingers both fielded strong populist leaders. That was why Trump could beat Clinton. And its why it was so risky to field Biden in 2020. | 0Trait Anger
