I’m not at all a believer in the supposed liberal media bias. However, there is one huge bias they have, which is to whatever narrative they’ve decided on. When General Kelly became the COS, they started talking about the “Kelly Effect.” The White House was suddenly very disciplined, according to the media, even…

We’ve had some pretty giant demonstrations and protests. People are mad. If you straight up take the democracy away, if they have no hope of getting rid of this man, I think it will start turning violent.

According to Comey’s statement in July of last year, explaining why he didn’t recommend prosecuting her, what she did was technically illegal. The espionage act does technically cover purposely handing over classified information as well as doing it by accident. So she did definitely break the law. The reason that he…

In 2012, Democrats got more votes for the House, by over a million votes, and the Republicans won more seats. The Dems did 1% better in votes, but the Republicans got 6% more seats. That’s fucked up. In 2016, the Republicans did eek out a slight edge. But they got significantly more seats for it.

The thing about gerrymandering is that it weakens you to a wave election. If it’s 52-48, you can keep power forever only getting that 48%. But, in order to do that, you are making a bunch of strong opposition districts and a bunch of districts where you have a slight majority. But right now, the generic ballot is…

Nothing they’ve done compares to stopping the election so you can maintain power. They’ve done horrible things, but nothing compares to that. That would send the signal that they have just taken power and destroyed the democracy. There would be riot. Their party wouldn’t survive.

I will admit, the lengths my fellow liberals went to to dismiss the seriousness of Hillary’s server was disturbing to me. It wasn’t as bad as the Republicans made it out to be, but it was serious. She was guilty of a federal crime (mishandling classified information) and she lied repeatedly about it. If it were a sane…

I think Trump is destroying the GOP. It just doesn’t happen quickly. Now they have a large group of voters who are utterly loyal to him, and distrustful of the party, and another group of voters who hate him, but voted for him to stick with the party. That’s not a good situation to be in.

Yeah, I saw that and it is scary as hell. If that happened, there would be riots. Thankfully, even the GOP leadership wouldn’t sink that low. It would destroy their party.

That statement applies to the entire GOP, these days. They have done everything in their power to stop people from voting, and to make sure their votes don’t matter. When you think about the fact that they are trying as hard as they can to stop Democrats from voting, and the Democrats still get a majority of votes for…

That’s been the most depressing thing for me. It’s not that I expected much from the Republicans or their allies in the media, but that pivot is still pretty low. All this time it was “nothing happened, and it’s insulting that you would accuse someone of something so horrible.” Now it’s “it did happen, but there’s…

I hope so. At this point, though, all we need is for Mueller to officially say that Trump’s actions constitute obstruction of justice. At that point, I don’t see how the Republicans fail to impeach. Especially considering they have realized that their plan of using him to get things done is doomed. He hurts their…

For a while, I was a little scared about the Russia investigation not going anywhere. There was a ton of circumstantial evidence, but nothing that could get a conviction. I was really afraid that Trump would serve out his full term.

I can kind of get it at rallies, because it’s his brand, but who the fuck wears a baseball cap while wearing a suit?

Don’t forget the Cornerstone Speech, in which the VP of the Confederacy said:

Okay... How is that the same? He thinks Martin Luther King Jr. is as offensive to whites as the Confederate flag is to blacks (or really all Americans, as it is a symbol of treason)? Even if he hadn’t casually thrown out the racial slur, there would be no doubt that he is a racist.

Again, I agree the wording was bad. However, I think it would pass legal muster, because they never actually directly tie her to accusing him. The word basically is a good way of muddying the water, and they only refer to her as making accusations (which she did) and then pivot to the other women, who have accused CK.…

The wording is definitely bad there, but it doesn’t actually say that. It says she leveled allegations, which is true, then pivots to other female comedians, and then it says they “basically” say that he did this. As long as other female comedians have made this allegation, they should be fine legally, as that wasn’t…

That’s kind of incredible. I’ve been thinking about whether it could have been an accident, and I don’t think so.

If you are accurately reporting an allegation, you aren’t going to get sued, at least not successfully. The important factors are if the person said it, and if they accurately reported that it was this person saying it, and that it was an allegation.
