How would the news media handle the murder of protesters if it came out the person was "Antifa" or a Biden supporter versus how they're handling the murder of protesters from a Trump teenager is ... sure a thing to see.

 

Charlie Baker has a higher favorability rating among Mass dems than Warren or Bernie.

 

its like Wahl just thought of every black stereotype possible to throw in there. “Oh they’re poor and black from Detroit? I bet they have outstanding warrants and unpaid credit card debt!”

 

The First 6 Things Microsoft Should Do

I agree with this a lot

 

lol not enough flags

 

isn’t this guy definitely running in 24

 

Already knew this after 9/11, but the executive branch is so undemocratic. It needs to be completely reformed with more checks/balances, accountability, and I would even go as far as saying we need to expand the presidency itself to multiple elected positions instead of just a single pres/vp ticket. One person having the power to appoint his donors/supporters to so many critical positions is so gross.

 

thinking bout this a lot this morning

 

lol "Why won't you talk to my daddy in law who is a racist that publicly shits on you all the time" is a FUCKING MOOD.

 

not much more depressing than "voters are cool with a thousand people dying per day whateves"

 

hurricane Laura ....,,,.,...

 

A 5 point PV loss, in a normal country, would lead to those 5 million or so people demanding a change.

 

Republicans being seen as better on the economy when literally every metric we have says differently will be something that makes me angry forever.

 

this is the right thing to say tbh even if it’s not correct. “No they shouldn’t do that but people have a right to be angry” is about it the most palatable message you’ll get for the idiot voters out there

 

It’s proof that right wing propaganda works, and it sucks so bad. People just assume hey lower taxes and less regulation means a better economy! And...NO! No it doesn’t! *tears hair out of scalp*

 

Yeah, it's the exact message that raised his polling numbers a month or so ago. While Trump is saying "Biden wants all the violence" his messaging has been pretty consistent. That video he released on it yesterday has like 3 million views or something I think. I saw Dave Weigel wonder if it was a Streisand effect from all the Fox "he didn't condemn it!" lies.

 

What's the point of being a billionaire if you don't buy Fox and shut it down?
