This is hilarious

Corporate media journalists and left-wing activists took to social media on Wednesday to spread claims that Republican Rep. Louie Gohmert of Texas is in favor of inciting insurrection. “Here’s a quote. ‘I just don’t even know why there aren’t more uprisings all over the country, and maybe there will be,’” Gohmert said on the House floor during the impeachment debate. While Gohmert specified that what he was saying was a quote, taken directly from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s previous statements encouraging uprisings, journalists and activists quickly twisted his words, publicly speculating and claiming he was calling for increased political violence around the nation. “Louis Gohmert: ‘I don’t know why they aren’t more uprisings all over the country,’” Blake News, a Politico editor tweeted.” Louis Gohmert: "I don't know why they aren't more uprisings all over the country." — Blake News (@blakehounshell) January 13, 2021 “Louie Gohmert calls for more violent uprisings claims Nancy Pelosi is destroying the American experiment and quotes the History Channel in about two minutes,” tweeted Sarah Reese Jones, a managing editor and columnist at PoliticusUSA. “Louie Gohmert literally asked for Trump supporters to commit violence on live TV prior to the insurrection. Why is he even there???” a KTVU Fox reporter asked on Twitter.

CNN: Gohmert uses Pelosi quote without context and without her permission in an effort to incite violence and sedition.

When he’s up for re-election, the dems will be running ads with a clip of his statement without providing any context to establish that he was quoting that

Sounds like normal politics. Not a lot of difference when it comes to the left and right.
Some on the left act like they want gun control for votes.
Some on the right act like they don’t want gun control for votes.
This is the case for almost everything.
Both sides lie and are more alike than people realize. Most people on this board know this to be true.
People on the far left like AOC and far right like Boebert are different, but they are dangerous.

They don't care. They're like locusts that move on to destroy the next thing. I appreciate keeping a log of their errors, but to expect them to show any humility is beyond their capabilities.

You can barely read. This thread is about the media coverage of politics.

No it won't.
Their followers are already there in lock step suggesting that Gohmert was taking Nancy out of context and changing the subject to avoid the fact that these idiots all ran with a completely false story.
And of course, Twitter will leave it up and there will be no Fact Checkers reporting to label them misinformation.
