Faux News slogan should be: “For those who can’t handle the truth.”

Absolutely!

By the last week of December, The Times had almost 8.8 million subscriptions. Nearly 5.9 million were for digital news, more than two million were for the other digital products, and a shade under 800,000 were for the print newspaper.

Maher is 1000% wrong here: in what world is a nutjob with a gun caught by a SCOTUS home NOT in the NYTimes wheelhouse?

ESPECIALLY after a bunch of elementary kids were mowed down. And its made ever MORE perfect because they went after Kavanaugh.

That story is rubbing Republicans' nose in the dog-poo. It's just about the perfect story from the NYTimes..."See!! We TOLD you that guns and mental health are a problem....do you get it now that one is going after someone on YOUR team?"

The editorial "problem" is that he didn't hurt anyone. If it bleeds, it leads. Maher is simply wrong here.

Right Wing morons freak out over Faux News transgender story. These hateful bags of sh*t aren't really part of the human race. The human race is much to good for their inclusion.

‘Big Lie’ Vigilantism Is On The Rise. Big Tech Is Failing To Respond.
The dummied-up flyer bore the hallmarks of a real WANTED poster. A grainy photo of a woman outside an election office in the suburbs of Atlanta stamped with the word “WANTED.” An image of a sheriff’s badge and the phone number for the Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Office. The implication was clear: The woman was being sought by the local sheriff for voter fraud.

The flyer was fake, and though the sheriff’s office eventually called it out, the false poster went viral, amassing tens of thousands of shares, views and threatening comments on Facebook, Twitter and TikTok and raising fears that harm could come to the unidentified woman.

Stolen-election activists and supporters of former President Donald Trump have embraced a new tactic in their ongoing campaign to unearth supposed proof of fraud in the 2020 presidential race: chasing down a fictional breed of fraudster known as a “ballot mule” and using social media to do it.
The Big Lie and the ONE MAN at the top of the fetid heap that perpetuates it, are a major cancer on our nation...
