However, contrary to your claim, they are not "actively suppressing this story." They are indeed reporting on it. They are just reporting on the facts, not on the fake news, Which is what journalists SHOULD do. Quote As for that POS Hirono, I can come up with other slurs if you like. I am sure you can. But you called her a cunt, because she's a woman, and that's the right's go-to attack for any woman who disagrees with them. It's a way to marginalize them by reducing them to their genitals. Something similar is happening with Kamala Harris. She is now being called a whore, which is a way to marginalize a woman by reducing them to a thing men have sex with. Bravo. And you wonder why women are turning away from the GOP? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Women with brains are a severe challenge to white men are not used to cognitive challenges to their world order. There seems to be an exception however. A place where populism, where Murdoch and his disinformation spinning media empire loses to facts. "Labour’s historic win delivered Ardern a second term while voters punished politicians who embraced populism ...“A huge reason that our politics is not so extremely polarised and so far out there is because we no longer have Murdoch-owned press in New Zealand, and it’s never taken a foothold,” said David Cormack, the co-founder of a public relations firm" But its nor fair to blame Murdoch for the _______ of trump's base. They choose to go back to websites that can't find advertisers because they peddle b.s. They choose to go back to their sources of information even though they get proven wrong and wrong again.

wmw999 2,545 #131 October 23, 2020 If you meant cant (a noun), then you used it incorrectly, as a modifier to Mazie Hirono there was no reason whatsoever to asteriskize it other than to make us think you were saying cunt Better wording would have been "that annoying, hypocritical cant that Mazie Hirono used" It would have clarified your actual meaning.

Until he actually provides any solid evidence, it's still just words. Well known Liberal Bastion the WSJ reviewed the documents he supplied and their sub-header reads: Former vice president says he had no involvement; corporate records reviewed by The Wall Street Journal show no role for Joe Biden. Wake me up when your next fabrication hits, yeah? Quote I can say that the Biden/Russia thing <appears> to be a case of highly unethical conflict of interest and influence-peddling for personal gain, but that's just the way it looks. Maybe it's not the case, but can you imagine if it was Trump Jr involved with this? If? Trump Jr is involved with this. All the major Trump kids are involved with this. Christ alive, Hunter accompanies a Biden grandkid on one trip and the right goes nuts. The Trump spawn are invited to multiple international conferences and work in the White House in an official capacity while they are still actively running Trump's business and consult with him on said business on a regular basis and the right couldn't give a shit.

There probably aren't any. It's likely to me that she's talking about Twitter. I've seen a couple of sites which make their bank from Twitter by forwarding some of that traffic. It isn't just this situation. McGowan has been consistent when it comes to pointing out the BS and hypocrisy on all sides. I respect her because she never wavers, no matter who is in her sights. True liberalism, not just leftist twaddle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you're talking about McGowan, you'd be wrong. I put her in the same class as Bill Maher. He annoys me from time to time but although I can't always agree with his point of view, he's almost always on the side of true liberalism, which I fully respect.

Except Islam, of course. We know the slurs you've said about it. I'm not a fan of any religion but your hypocrisy is quite obvious.
