True or not - how can these sweeping, generalized headlines be permitted to be posted ina Publibly-funded forum? This is beyond the pale...

This is one defunding mission I wholeheartedly endorse.

Defund NPR, our tax dollars cannot be used in this way.

It's amazing to compare rhetoric around two things in today's culture
For example, any claim relating to Trump and the election on Wiki will include "dishonest" or "proven false" or something like that, no ambiguity.
Then go to something that is blatantly false, like, for example, the ahistorical Cleopatra thing, and it's all soft language like "Egypt contests Cleopatra's portrayal as black" and proceeds to go on to say how most historians have traditionally believed her mostly greek and Persian, but how there is ongoing debate.
They are able to layer this stuff so thickly that it's harder and harder every year to succinctly explain how they're lying. And eventually, people who know the truth and have authority to speak about it - even on mundane things like Cleopatra's skin color - won't be here anymore.

NPR represents a certain feminine , calming, polite Progressive aesthetic. The people who consume this see it as a baseline. NPR is the baseline. It’s essentially true/fair//good just in its very existence. . Issues about the philosophical wisdom of having taxpayers pay for highly biased opinion journalism that is 95%+ in the service of one political party and the forces of cultural Progressivism doesn’t even occur to them. It is just easy listening for educated ladies of The Left.

Here's one notable example: Sexual Orientation If you recall, Merriam-Webster changed their definition shortly after this clip aired.

It is true though. His claims about the election have been proven to be false. He lashed out about his court issues.

Nothing is DEBUNKED as quickly and unanimously as the truth.

he lied 15 times.
She only asked him 10 questions.
the only people butthurt about accurate reporting are trump fans.
they still pretend to believe Trump, who said Obama is Kenyan. people say you know. some people say so...
Kenya? Rwanda. Madrassa.

When you define the word “lie “ as objecting to Democratic Party/Corporate Media consensus, then you have made a lie of the truth.
Posted on 5/12/23 at 9:02 am to Lsupimp
when you just lost a jury trial for finger fricking a stranger and then you claim the suit is b.s. because you were not even there! you will get sued again.
that particular lie is going to bite him for another million. its George Santos level liars poker.
the interviewer should have asked why he didn't testify under oath about not being there.

These people also think NPR is government funded. Imagine how pissed they will be when they realize Anheuser Busch contributed more..

some just cannot be proven true. and some assertions do not stand up to inspection by logic. such was the claim made about Arizona that it was somehow impossible. that was the next day after. I defeated that one myself.
AG Barr reviewed the issues raised by partisans and found them all wanting. all just b.s. to be specific.
the past few days I've invited posters to specify instances of stealing 2020 elections. they assert the steal in vague terms like AS WE ALL KNOW.
no we don't.
Sidney Powell made up her stories.
Q made up stories.
mail is legal.
even mass collection of ballots is legal where legal.
the fact of local-regional pandemic created the mass mail opportunities and I agree that that made the difference. now trump is for mass collection and mail where legal.
he's also calling for the end of mail by states.

I think plenty are false and clearly so, while others might be true or partly true.
But regardless, the press does not go around real-time fact checking politician claims in describing them. It's completely insane.

There is no philosophical difference between Trump “ losing a jury trial for finger fricking a stranger than a black man being convicted of a crime in front of a white jury in the Jim Crow south. If you read the facts of the case you know they are both travesties of justice and weaponized judiciary. Which ironically, in both cases, are a Democrat- run enterprise. Criminalize the opposition . Can’t get him in criminal court? Impeach him ! If he lives…Give him Civil- litigation or give him death, right?
But look, if you want that crazy lady to be your 2024 “ Muh Rape “ standard- bearer, I will only encourage you. It’s a YUGE win for The Bad Orange Man that is Bad. It’s a BIGLY win. Just not for Democrats.

might be partly true but AG barr said no issue rose to the degree it would change anything.
the only unresolved matter is 2022 Lake gov Arizona in which 300k ballots will be reviewed. lake needs a net improvement of 17k.
this is signatures.
my guess is no two signatures perfectly match and 200k of the 300k are challenged and the review takes weeks. net change 2.
to do this right they should contact each voter and get them to sign and state thats their ballot instead of quibbles lake will try how the t was crossed.
