Bringing up dumbass Kavanaugh stuff again, for fucks sake.
Now it turns out the entire premise of the New York Times article, which they took from a book, PURPOSEFULLY left out the fact that the women who was alleged to have been the victim says it didn't happen. Just another day in your enemy of the people media. These things aren't accidents.

Not accidents at all. The Rag has become nothing more than all-out left-wing propaganda.

Never, EVER thought I'd say this, but I miss practically every president prior to Trump in my lifetime. Obama, Clinton, the Bushes, Reagan ... all of them. They didn't play angry armchair quarterback on social media, any virtue signaling they did was more impersonal, they didn't feel the need to respond and quarrel with every notable voice that disagreed with them, and frankly, they appeared to know the difference between an ideological adversary and an evil villain.
In summation, they acted like adults. Holy fucking Moses, where have the adults gone in politics?
I blame Newt.

It wasn't the Atlantic (because the Atlantic is trash), but there was a good podcast episode about this from some other podcast. It was a pretty neutral take on it too.

Holy shit these House Impeachment hearings are going to a new level of circus.
Rep. Sheila Jackson just got done yelling at Lewandowski "AND THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE!!!!"
LMFAO....Pelosi was right - this is tremendous fodder for Trump's campaign.
This might be the best comedy on tv right now. Unbelievable.
posted by gutSo is Biden really leading everyone because people are convinced he can beat Trump? Or is he leading because all the other candidates are so awful?
Probably a bit of both. He's a more moderate dem, compared to the rest of the field, which plays well to all but the 10-20% farthest to the left AND he's not Trump, which plays well to a lot of people, even if he is, at heart, the same sort of senile gaffe machine that Trump is.

Agreed; what a clown show. Winning back the House is getting easier.
Jesus.......its just embarrassing that our elected politicians stoop so low to waste their time by listening to a 12 year old from 1/2 way across the world as some sort of expert on climate change.
How about they invite some 12 year old from south Chicago and talk to them about helping them from the violence that they live in.

The credibility of The Atlantic notwithstanding, Gingrich was too Machiavellian to be blamed for the infantile nonsense in politics. That dude was an ass that shouldn't be trusted not to sell his own mother, so if you'd want to point at him as one of the major reasons for corruption, I could see it, though.

Lol a 16 year old with multiple psychological/ mental issues, who is being pimped out by her parents. And the left eats it up like she’s the climate savior. My God people.

For the left it is now only about either preying on emotion or diving into personal destruction. I can no longer recall an honest discussion emanating from the left involving real facts, numbers, and ideas. Sad, sad commentary.

The look-the-other-way-and-blame-Trump-for-something loophole ……..just as they did for the VA governor.

I saw a blue checkmark defend him saying, essentially, who didn't do stupid shit in high school, let he who casts the first stone, yada, yada.
The problem with that is that Fidel Jr was 29 at the time.
I saw a couple using that convenient moment to ask whether or not the outrage movement has gone too far.
I heard 2 liberal news outlets make an excuse for him already......"Well it was 20 years ago" and " He did come out and apologize"
But when Kavanaugh did NOT do something 30 years ago, well ……

I don't really care if the media wants to exploit her for some hysterical tear-jerker piece.
But I can't believe she's testifying before Congress - she's a 16-yr old autistic girl with no life experience and no education in science. What a colossal waste of time simply to generate campaign soundbites.

If you let your kid skip school for this politicized bullshit, you’re a terrible parent.

I hope exploiting children to shame people about climate change is the tipping point on the propaganda being pushed by the leftwing media.
But maybe destroying faith in science and the media isn't an outcome that concerns the globalists - if no one has the credibility to challenge you, you can say whatever you want. Next best thing to actually controlling speech.
