Is there no legal action that can be taken here? I’m well past lies being spewed on Fox on a daily basis.

To that end, how do politicians like Byron Donalds and John James align themselves with this crowd?

Man who openly advocated for a sitting President to be executed posthumously receives Presidential Medal of Freedom. There’s your lead-in, MSM.

Yep, it’ll stay relatively hidden on BlueSky and some niche left-leaning media. Won’t see the light of day on legacy MSM.

"*I* turned at the right time" will certainly make Kirk's family and friends feel better ...or, maybe it will? I honestly don't understand that cult.

My hope is this gets more coverage than Politico, Rawstory, BlueSky and niche left-leaning sources. But my faith in legacy MSM has been really drying up.

I mean, "Grab 'em by the P" was widely overlooked and barely a speed bump for Trump.

She's a dope representing Michigan's ruby-red 'thumb', so no.

I remember a brief moment in time where I legit thought Biden was picking her for his running mate.

Oh cool. I‘m so glad to be kept regularly informed of Elon’s expensive toys.

Even Hitler’s ghost said that creating cute little nicknames for concentration camps is going a bit too far.

Hoping DTW (Detroit) isn’t running it.

We need a fresh Bingo card of Fox/Maga go-to phrases. Woke, Antifa, Soros, Terrorists, and so on.

Even a typically dry, standard health report has to have that gushing North Korea state media flavor to it.

The “wins” do feel few and far between. Even during Biden it felt like MAGA controlled the narratives.

Natural results of a far-right regime controlling all 3 branches of government, owning SCOTUS, and gobbling up legacy & social media one by one. Quite frankly it’s hard not to often feel defeated.

Nothing and no one will stop them, and they (correctly) know that.

Was never a big fan, but I miss the 90s/00s Kid Rock-Joe C days where he was just about debauchery and everyone having fun. Instead of some Church Lady codger bellyaching about people looking “different.”

I believe we'll still get to physically "vote," but with gerrymandering, voter intimidation (I assume key precincts will have camo-clad guards there for 'protection'), Dominion being sold to a right-winger... lots of tactics to will tilt things toward MAGA.

And the differences between Bondi and Garland are just so extreme. One is boorish, aggressive and cultish loyal to POTUS, on TV every day. The other was feckless, quiet and afraid to emerge from the shadows.

On Jimmy Kimmel's return show, he mentioned he and his family have received death threats over the years. Assuming he's being truthful (and I see no reason why he wouldn't be), why isn't Bondi investigating and holding a press conference about it?

Does the word "terrorist" even have meaning anymore? It's lost its entire definition. They throw it around so casually in every news clip describing anyone they 'don't like' (along with woke, socialist, etc.).

I feel so much safer with her off the streets. So, uh, have they ventured into any 'scary' neighborhoods and caught any hardened criminals and gangbangers yet, or nah?
