The determination of journalists to be unbiased is endangering American democracy. Journalists should not be impartial about whether America's current form of government, and with it the free press, survive.

I only voted for him because he said immigrants were eating pets and poisoning the blood of our country…how was I supposed to know he’d act like a dictator?

“Obama and Biden did the exact same thing!!!” they lied, apparently unaware that we were alive and lucid when they crapped on Obama and Biden for not doing these things.

Either way, our political press can’t be bothered with context or prior statements. Unless they’re going after Democrats—then they suddenly rediscover investigative journalism.

I’m old enough to remember when MAGA cropped this photo and declared Biden an authoritarian dictator.

It’s unfortunate that our press can’t seem to remember anything Republicans have ever said or done that may otherwise expose the hollowness or frailty of GOP positions.

It’s really something to live through Reagan Democrats, factory workers wanting to have a beer with W, Joe the Plumber backing McCain/Palin etc. only to watch the press cover Trump’s working class support as if it’s a novelty.

One of the strangest features of American politics is how we’ve expected to pretend that the people who voted for this somehow didn’t.

And this is where you’ve lost.

I said you can compare it to countless other atrocities. You CHOOSE the Holocaust. And that’s born of an antisemtism that you’d prefer we just ignore.

And as for 2 similar events, at one point in the Holocaust the Germans killed 14,000 jews a day. For 90 straight days. And jews hadn’t killed a bunch of Germans at a concert or taken Germans hostage.

You like these events because of antisemitism and it’s enough already.

Rep. Steven Woodrow @woodrowforco.bsky.social · 1d

I’m sure you could draw from countless other historical examples of mass killings and atrocities that don’t involve comparing jews to nazis.

You choose it intentionally.

That you refuse to ask why is what has lead many jews to deeply distrust the Left.

Working class voters chose W— because Gore was too elitist and W was “someone they could have a beer with.”

Maybe you should try being less antisemitic and not compare Gaza to the Holocaust. It false and bigoted.

MAGA are the folks who thought we should nuke Vietnam.

I often wonder what the last 25 years would’ve been like had Gore won and we had focused on climate change instead of starting wars in the Middle East.

Whenever I see a clip of Laura Ingraham mocking liberals this image pops into my head.

It was to protect slavery.

It’s been used to shield a lot of terrible nonsense supported by a geographically dispersed minority.

We need a public option.

High speed rail.

7 million new affordable homes.

An amendment to get money out of politics.

A huge investment in trades.

Trump and the GOP could do all of this now instead of sending troops to Portland, redoing the WH ballroom, or renaming bodies of water.

You should say that while looking into the mirror. 😂😂😂

It’s kinda laughable to claim we’ve been too progressive on climate change, housing, gun violence, and healthcare.

Dems couldn’t get things done because people demanded we compromise with Republicans ala Joe Manchin.

The media’s job is to make you think that the people who want to give you healthcare are just as crazy as the people trying to take it away.

Trump doesn’t want the Epstein files released because they would show he’s the most innocent person ever and other people would just get jealous.
