This it the ed page that purposefully lied (years after the facts were known by all) about Palin having prompted the Gifford shooting in response to a leftist trying to kill congressional Republicans.



Yep, the infamous bullseyes were used as "obvious proof" that Republicans are dog whistling hit jobs on opponents

TMObile has stopped advertising on Tucker Carlson's show...that's completely appropriate for a company who wants to sell phones to minorities to do.

Tucker has been spitting fire on this issue the past couple weeks. Only appropriate for people who don't want to actually look at the real issue going on

You can't argue with such people.

Their ideology lacks intellectual merit and consistency, so they disavow the concepts of merit and consistency as tools of white supremacy, the patriarchy, etc.

He doesn't. And people like him are worse than the people that do this shite unapologetically. At least those people have the balls to pick a side.

China definitely has the USA targeted for subversion. The USA is the only thing keeping China from becoming the world's strongest nation.

I can’t decide if it’s a good thing the left has become unmasked or I’m just staring into the start of our future.

James Bennet wasn't fired over a headline, he was fired due to his employees pitching a fit about publishing Tom Cotton's op-ed about using active duty military against protesting civilians...it was an irresponsible decision and a viewpoint that shouldn't have been given the light of day by a reputable news organization.

Why? Because you say it's insensitive?

Also, it's completely dishonest to say he wanted to use the military against "protesting civilians". He pointed out an option that should be used, in his OPINION, to stop the destruction and rioting that was going on. Protesting is fine. Destroying property and assaulting people is NOT.

He's the same kind of person that would move from CA to TX because of high taxes, too much regulation, cost of living, etc then vote for the same policies in TX because it's "the right thing to do". It's a mind virus.

It's cute that the same group of people who say things like "play stupid games win stupid prizes" every time police brutality is in the headlines.

Are now crying and melting over cancel culture. I guess the stupid prizes are only okay when it's the prizes you agree with.

The gloves are off - anyone who believes that there is a “moderate” wing of the Democratic Party that wields any real power is kidding themselves.

Yeah

It's a cult. It has all the signatures of a cult. You must repent. You must isolate yourself from your grandma who voted for Trump. You can commit violence in the name of the cult. You can create your own rules and social mores within the confines of the cult.

It's unhealthy

But there are a lot of allies who are going to get knocks at the door and I'm going to laugh my arse off.

They will come for him, as well one day. Now matter how much virtue he has deposited into the SJW bank account. He’s just too blinded by Trump to see it.

You think mmmmmmmbeer has done anything remotely close to Drew Brees?
