    That may make supporting Trump easier, but it's a horribly destructive path in general, one often adopted by oppressive regimes, and directly contrary to much of tte text found in our constitution.
    What on earth on you talking about?

    In part I think you must have slept through the "media lies" thread. But I still don't know what you are talking about.

      You are right. It sounds like oxmixmudd is presenting some weird humor here.

        How can you accuse Twitter of using liberal fact checkers when their head of "site integrity," Yoel Roth, the person in charge of their fact checkers, has written the following:

        I’ve never donated to a presidential campaign before, but I just gave $100 to Hillary for America. We can’t [veiled f-bomb] around anymore.


        I'm just saying, we fly over those states who voted for a racist tangerine for a reason

        Yes, that person in the pink hat is clearly a bigger threat to your brand of feminism than ACTUAL NAZIS IN THE WHITE HOUSE



        He's obviously a cup overflowing with the cream of impartiality. He can be completely trusted to be a neutral, nonpartisan judge.

        I'm always still in trouble again

          I should have said I parphrase for the sticklers here, but the point is the same.

            There is a very large amount of disinformation spread around the internet, often with the intent of supporting the uber conservative agenda, and that is exactly the sort of thing that would fit under this banner. The anti AGW rhetoric being a good example. But also the majority of the covid misinformation. Facts stated and spun out of context to support a falsehood. Biden should own it and explain it.
            They may have grasped it had Biden spoke in their own language, i.e. 'truth over alternate facts'.

                That doesn't make him a liberal, it just makes him perceptive.

                  Right, you "paraphrased" it into something he never actually said.

                        Right... apparently in your world, responding point-by-point equals "running away".

                          Here's a picture of some of the actual Tweets.

                          The clipped word in the tweet about McConnell is "farts"
                          So he called him a "personality-free bag of farts -- which is actually kinda funny




                          I'd do them myself but I'm having trouble using the snipping tool on Windows 10.

                            It sure does.

                            Or are you prepared to point me directly to the exculpatory evidence from the Flynn 302s etc etc.

                                Or... maybe, just maybe, you should quit concocting counterfeit quotes which are nothing more than your jaundiced opinion and pretending it's what someone else said.
