FEC (Federal Elections Commission) fined Hillary Clinton, personally, and the DNC as an entity for lying about paying for the false Russia dossier.

True, only a token $8,000 for her and $105,000 for DNC, but at least it's on the historical record that she cheated.

I don't think complaining about a biased media helps but I'm going to keep complaining anyway. Over the last 4-5 years, Think of the very long list of "bombshells," "the walls are closing in," and "the beginning of the end" declarations based on "anonymous," "off the record," or "sources inside say" information that were total fabrications yet the media slobbered over those stories endlessly. No facts, no problem. Yet, any story that contains factual credible information that might shed light on the corrupt dealings of their own party (yes, most media works for the democrat party) gets ignored.

Don't click on (or otherwise use) those sources. They get some money (somehow) when you do. Refuse to use them and visit others. Vote with your dollars. That's the best min effort / max impact thing you can do to help kill the beast.

Just in case anyone was willing to give him another go, this should wrap things up....Trump Casually Suggests Returning to Afghanistan at Michigan Rally (thedailybeast.com)

Oh brother....a simple statement meant to rile up the crowd subsequently spun by the media....nothing to see here (same old playbook either right or left leaning)

So the so called news agencies that banded together to suppress and discredit the Hunter Biden Laptop story have now admitted it is a real story and not "Russian Propaganda."  This week it was reported the investigation has heated up and Hunter is likely to be indicted soon.  As of this morning it was reported the panel (I am assuming grand jury), asked "who is the big guy."  Will be interesting to see what comes of this and how the die hard liberals on here will react.

Hunter might ask or think, well, pardon me??? 

Talk about an ethical dilemma for his dear ole Dad...on multiple fronts nonetheless...not an enviable big guy

All those intel chiefs who definitively stated the laptop was propaganda should be banned from government service ever again.  They are permanently discredited.

For real? Like no shit?

*If* this is the case, there needs to be a massive come to Jesus with regard to how our media apparatus functions. That's already true, but this should make it obvious for everyone, regardless of which side of the isle you're on.

I view "Hunter getting indicted soon" the same way I viewed "Trump getting indicted soon". I'll believe it when someone actually files charges.

Trump had his AG launch appoint a special counsel to investigate the fake “Trump Russian Collusion”.  For some reason I doubt Biden will do the same for his financial involvement with his son’s corrupt financial dealings.

[brickhistory]

Biden:  I don't know anything about my son's financial or business interests.

Also Biden:  I know Hunter didn't do anything wrong (other than lie on an ATF 4473, do crack, got kicked out of the Navy on day one due to testing positive for cocaine, etc, etc, etc).

Also Biden:  I guess I did write a letter of recommendation for the son of one of Hunter's business partners.

Also Biden:  Pudding!

[Guest LumberjackAxe]

Lol we've already established that the president and their family is immune from actual legal prosecution, outside of congressional grandstanding. I'll believe it when it happens, until then, "it is reported that..." is basically the same as a Qanon fantasy.

8.5% inflation reported (I’m sure the real number is much higher)…and Biden and the Dem’s focus is on higher taxes, more government spending, and more regulations on energy.  Oh, and making sure kindergartners are being taught about gender identity.

I can't see how they're expecting anything short of slaughter on the mid terms....

I’m not exactly sure of their strategy?  Maybe Nsplayr can give us an honest opinion? 
 

I truly think it’s just that the far left wing of their party (AOC types) are controlling the agenda and message.  AOC has literally said the key their success is the party going further left.

She also claimed that all major medical associations agree that these treatments are the “best practice” and are “potentially life saving” to children identifying as transgender and therefore should not fear that their parents or medical professional could be imprisoned for “helping them and loving them.”

Pure fucking evil.

And this was a WH strategy to keep the dementia patient from stepping on himself.

White House journalists widely regard Hays, the administration’s director of message planning, as responsible for limiting press access to Biden at public events over the past year.

 

You work hard in school, you pay your dues in various political jobs to land at the White House...and you're the bunny lady.

Nice.

Last Friday, Special Counsel Durham dropped court filings that state that five Clinton campaign staff have invoked 5th amendment regarding the Russia collusion matter while Durham is charging one lawyer already.

In addition, court documents contain findings from the CIA, from early 2017, that the machine language supposedly between Trump, et al, and a Russian bank, was "user created," i.e., phony and manufactured by somebody.

The indicted lawyer, Sussman, says he didn't lie to the FBI when he said he wasn't working for any client.

Fusion GPS, hired by Clinton campaign, and the Clinton campaign itself, are trying to have the documents thrown out due to "attorney client privilege."

So which is it?  No client or attorney-client privilege?

I still hope for some perp walks before I'm dead.

I hope Elon puts a knee to the Twitter leadership's neck and exposes the "algorithms" they have been using.  Here is a little hint of how the big tech oligarch's think and how "fair" they are when it comes to free speech.

The title says employee donations. Most employers/large corporations donate vigorously to both parties. While the tech companies you listed do tend to favor Democrats in their contributions, I would suggest a site like opensecrets could paint a clearer picture. Personally, I don’t think it’s healthy for large corporations to donate to political parties & that Citizens United was one of the worst rulings in the history of the Supreme Court. But I am curious as to why you think Twitter should be required to be “fair” and/or why they should be constrained by the concept of free speech? The Nike store will probably kick you out if you enter the property wearing a sign protesting child labor. Why would/should an online venue act any differently regarding speech they consider damaging to their business?
