I don't really know about Dominion voting machines, but how would we root out an issue (or learn enough to dismiss it as nonsense) if it can't be discussed.

Is Shapiro really considered a “Trump supporter”

He has been more than a little criticism of the president

Sort of to your point: I can think of some examples of the media being told to keep quiet about matters regarding the Left:

Hunter Biden
Joe Biden’s health and gaffs
Kamala’s career
Kamala’s accusations against Biden
BLM/Antifa violence this year
The hypocrisy of mass protests and COVID spread

Should I also be silenced for not copying and pasting what our media over lords have told us?


would you quit TD if a mod told you to shut up about a particular topic?

I get your point but these companies should have cencored Democrats for 2-3 years during the Russia lies, at least be fair

I didn't say it was equivalent to the OP.

You brought up if you should be silenced for a particular reason.

I just asked a question about that point.

it really depends what Levin, Shapiro et al are discussing on the airwaves. the directive in the OP states that the election has been decided and stop talking about paths around it.

discussing general improprieties of an election is not the same as discussing paths around an already decided election.

either way, the radio station is the employer and has the right to set guidelines.

That’s what you morons said when Twitter was censoring. In comes Parler. Now they aren’t allowed to exist. Height of anti-trust. Height of dishonesty and disingenuousness from you. You should be ashamed. When is the next book burning?

It’s the lemmings on here that I consider “the left”. The useful idiots that support things they would normally be appalled about. But they now support because OMB.

polling is showing that most republicans and some democrats think that there was some irregularities in this election.


Some irregularities does not equal overturn the results.

If Trump and the GOP were saying let's tighten up election irregularities for the future elections, there would not be this push back.

Instead they use language like stolen election. They chose to go down this path. And they chose to stroll the path with grenades instead of tasers.

I know not one reasonable person who believes the election was stolen. I know shite loads who believe it was business as usual. And none of those people feel great about it. But "stolen" ???

No.

Odd that every media outlet is saying this because a Democrat won, but when Trump won in 2016 we spent two years investigating "Russian Influence"; the same media was ok with it then, but not now..hmmm.

This is highly unlikely unless you live in an echo chamber. I have several liberals friends that think some major stuff went down, but they don't really care

Yeah, I remember in 2016 when Hillary refused to concede, Obama refused to allow the transition process to commence, they both ranted and raved on Twitter for 2 months about a stolen election, nearly the entire Dem House caucus objected to certified electoral counts from certain states, and a liberal mob stormed the Capitol Building in hopes of disrupting the democratic process and in the process at least 5 people lost their lives.

Totally the same thing.

baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Remember the impeachment talks starting immediately after he was elected? I do.

Remember the Capitol being "stormed" during the Kavanaugh hearings? I do.

You're a fricking sheep that cannot think for yourself. It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.

And while we're remembering violence, remember the leftist that attempted and almost succeeded assassinating Steve Scalise? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
