Please don't forget that they operate out of a pizzeria in Washington and they also cannibalize their victims. Wait, I've noticed Trump has been packing on the pounds. Hmmm...


Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, Pizza :droop:


I've been to Comet Pizza, since I live within driving distance of DC.
Granted, this was probably 7 years ago, so Obama and Hilary were probably more adept at hiding the trafficked toddlers in the basement.
I'd just like to report that while it was pretty good brick oven pizza, it wasn't spectacular. Also, in a MAJOR disappointment, no pineal gland toppings were available.

Never has there been such hard evidence of political corruption against a presidential candidate.

Sharing fraudulently created fake evidence is the behavior of a troll. You don't seem to care whether false "facts" are real or not, because you post them without any concern.

Please tell us you're not trying to be a troll.

This is why I started blocking them because they live in an alternate reality. I am done dealing with stupid. I am not saying reps are stupid I know quite a few that nice people and we have civil conversation that make them think once they are presented with facts. These are people that learned critical thinking skills and to read several sources. Most of the trump supporters here are just that trump supporters no matter what the fact may bear out

Does Putin know something about the likely outcome?


Like BiBi. Putin reads polls.


Putin accomplished his goals.

1. Keep Clinton out of WH
2. Have Trump sow division and chaos.
3. Gets to laugh in our faces

If Putins goal was to sow division and chaos then why did you do its bidding this entire time with bull investigations and bull Impeachment? You are what you think we are Wingo.

And sure why wouldn't Russia want a President who pours mega amounts of money into a depleted military and makes America much stronger economically. Your theory Putin wanted Trump doesn't make the least bit of sense

The source doesn't change what Biden is heard saying on the phone, and how it's corroborated by the timing of the firing of the prosecutor.

Keep deluding yourself that Biden created a family dynasty as a career politician honestly.

A big misstep Trump made was labelling Biden Sleepy Joe, when he is one of the most duplicitous politicians in power.

OMG! Doubling down on the behavior that is just like that of a troll.

Calling fire hot isn't groundbreaking; it's fact.

I, for example, presented you with several relevant sources in the previous thread about how it's likely more republicans that would vote against the resident vs. democrats voting against Biden after you simply said I was completely wrong, and I am still awaiting your response. No response from you means that you are doing exactly what you claimed from the previous poster - you're just pooping on everything.

I've posted many links on how the Democrat party is losing Black and Latino voters there was no need to do so yet again.

What do you mean by "calling fire hot?" That doesn't make the slightest bit of sense.

I mean that trollish behavior should obviously be trolling. Just like calling fire hot is obvious.

And posting links from sites like Breitbart, Daily Caller, or OAN is not valid. I thought this was already established. Please use sites that are not extremely biased and also, spreading false information.

CNN And MSNBC do have their bias as well and they should not be your sole place for information.

This is why when finding sources, you don't just look at one link. For example, look for information from the AP, Reuters, BBC, NPR, or even scholarly journals, for example, to see if they can corroborate.

But CNN and MSNBC are nowhere close to Fox in terms of bias, let alone Breitbart or OAN

There is no equivalent to Fox News on the left, and the closest thing to OAN or Breitbart is probably TYT

Every news source has a bias, but not every source is equally biased. It's really not that hard to understand, but some people feel the need to oversimplify this stuff so they can "but both sides" to make themselves feel superior.

This is Brian Stelter's (CNN Reliable Sources) summary of how the Wall Street Journal wouldn't buy into the Trump campaign's attempt to "launder" their false email story through the WSJ. I've quoted the pertinent part below, but if you look at the orginal by clicking the URL below, you'll see links to supporting information.

I've got to say I'm glad the WSJ didn't sell their soul the way the NY Post did.

The WSJ newsroom v. the opinion section...

Ben Smith's Monday media column in the NYT reveals how Trump allies tried to launder an anti-Hunter Biden narrative through the Wall Street Journal, but Michael Bender and other WSJ reporters "wouldn't buy it." Indeed, the Journal newsroom deserves credit for doing its "due diligence," as Smith puts it, and debunking some of the key allegations against the Bidens.

The piece elicited a lot of reaction on Sunday night. To be sure, it’s a fascinating backstory in how the far-right smear machine works (or tried to). And it’s a real peek behind the curtains of how conflicted the Rupert Murdoch media world is. It was the Murdoch machine that whipped up this anti-Biden storyline to begin with. The Murdoch-owned NY Post published the "emails" story while the Journal was vetting it. Fox News and its sister outlet Fox Business obsessed over the allegations (and continue to do so) and attacked other media outlets for exercising caution. The Journal's opinion section contradicted the Journal's newsroom, and were co-conspirators in the smear campaign. As a PR exec said to me Sunday night, "The WSJ, like Fox, had to rewrite through their news divisions what their opinion folks peddled as fact first in an effort to influence the election." But Fox and the Journal's opinionistas are barely mentioned in Smith's column, and should have been called out far more.

There's a whole second part of the column that had many mouths agape. Smith argued that the relative dearth of "Biden emails" coverage across the media proves that "the old gatekeepers, like The Journal, can still control the agenda." He used this as evidence that many media leaders have learned their lessons since the 2016 election. He said "it turns out there is a big difference between WikiLeaks and establishment media coverage of WikiLeaks..." Which is true... But he also admits to "deep ambivalence about this revenge of the gatekeepers." Smith ever-so-briefly noted his decision, almost alone in the media world, to publish the Steele dossier while he was running BuzzFeed News in 2017, but, as more than a few people observed, his column didn't reckon with the consequences of that act. Looking back with 2020 glasses, the reckless release of the dossier damaged not only BuzzFeed’s reputation, but others, too. So it's mighty interesting to read him wrestling with the role of gatekeepers now...
