Remember when #Hillary called some #Trump supporters
#deplorables? It got HUGE coverage as compared to Trump calling his enemies #vermin, like #Hitler did? #MediaMatters report:
-Broadcast TV: 18 times more coverage than Trump’s vermin remark
CNN, Fox News, & MSNBC mentioned deplorables nearly 9 times more than vermin
Print: Clinton's comment 29-to-1 Trump's vermin https://www.mediamatters.org/donald-trump/major-news-outlets-gave-much-less-coverage-trumps-vermin-attack-then-they-did-clintons
#Clinton later expressed regret for the comment, but Trump DIDN'T. AND his supporters AGREED with him!

“Chicken hawk Football coach turned Senator, who took orders from Trump during the insurrection, blocks military appointments to make nation’s military weak”

That’s your headline

There was a lot I was supposed to do this morning. But I learned that my county supervisors plan to approve license plate reading cameras in the county tomorrow, so I dropped everything to write this emergency comment to say HELL NO.

It's also now a Techdirt post:

Super-petty from Sunak, but the BBC framing a Greek opining that historical treasures appropriated from his nation should be returned as a "row" is rather telling, too. Making the integrity of our colonial treasure house a diplomatic stumbling block is not a good look for my homeland.

Who will be incarcerated first, Trump or his attorneys? LOL.

Oh, The Irony! Trump Attorney Alina Habba and Her Husband Owe Millions in Tax Liens and Warrants https://www.politicalflare.com/2023/11/oh-the-irony-trump-attorney-alina-habba-and-her-husband-owe-millions-in-tax-liens-and-warrants/

When they say “working with” the Republican Party means that we asked the White House for comment on a story (that is actually very critical of Biden lol)

But it’s so funny how the right continues to call me a TikTok content creator (I am!) but never mention that I am also a columnist for The Washington Post, which is where this reporting appeared https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2023/11/24/bigmac-price-tiktok-biden-economy-inflation/

Erica Lafferry is the daughter of the principal killed in the 2012 Sandy Hook massacre

She was diagnosed with cancer and had to resort to crowdfunding her treatment as her insurance denied her claim

That was after the Alex Jones verdict

A verdict he was ordered to pay $1.48B in defamation charges

An amount he hasn’t paid while spending $90,000/mo to support his lifestyle

His victims are now asking for 6% of what he owes

This system is set up for one group and one group only

Paris mayor Anne Hidalgo leaves Twitter 🐦

“Why I am leaving Twitter.

I have made the decision to leave Twitter.

Twitter, far from being the groundbreaking medium that initially made information accessible to the greatest possible number of people, has in recent years become an impressive tool for destroying our democracies”

Conservative men have made themselves unfuckable with their abhorrent views, but somehow this is a problem liberal women should solve by lowering their standards.

Make no mistake. Trump wants to TERMINATE healthcare for millions by gutting the Affordable Care Act.

Listen to Univision anchor Jorge Ramos. He charged that his network gave too friendly an interview with Trump, and in so doing it “put in doubt the independence of our news department.” Ramos added that Univision cannot “offer Trump an open microphone to broadcast his falsehoods and conspiracy theories." Let it be a warning to all news media.

A Fresno woman was jailed in LA for shoplifting. A month later, her mother got back a decaying corpse.

This is a hard read, and it was hard to write:

Israel is also the only country that routinely puts children on trial in military courts (which have a dubious conviction rate of up to 99%).

According to the UN report "Children in Israeli military detention":

"It is understood that this is the first and only juvenile military court in operation in the world."

@sleepfreeparent @JoshuaACasey @marcelias Don’t strain yourself shoveling that garbage. No one’s going to pay attention to it. Dems aren’t doing any of the things that you’re saying they’re doing.
