While it IS politically motivated, they are/were still legitimate charges.

Now of course his immunity as the president, from what I understand, should make the whole things drop faster than the Habs in the standings so it will be all moot down the line.

I still would like it to go to appeal court to see other judges take on this whole thing.

Pat, he got a clean sweep. Not just the electoral college, but the popular vote, won the senate, won the house. He received a full on mandate. We might not like it, but it is the will of the majority of Americans. It is what it is.

oh I'm not arguing against that, I just find the whole thing is incredibly dumb and absurd.

Lol, agreed. Much of it was media driven though. I think we will see a change in the way media covers news. I think people are tired of the sensationalistic approach in news coverge. I know I am. I miss the old boring news... lol

Honestly, they don't have a choice. Mainstream news is on life support as it is.

That's what I think as well, but Trump totally broke these guys. It's crazy. So hard to find the actual truth with all the narrative pushing.

yeah, Putin is probably a good guy too, we've just been blinded all along.

I follow both sides on social media. I do however avoid the sensational tribalistic ones. When a person's opinions and feelings affects the way news is portrayed, it's no longer news, it's opinion pieces at best, or outright propaganda and fear mongering at worst. People have started seeing through that I think.

"Trump said he's gonna put Liz Cheney in front of a firing squad"
"Trump said there's gonna be a bloodbath if he's not elected"
"Trump called Nazis very fine people"
...come on Pat. You really think they're just reporting news ?

yeah, I get what you're saying but I don't have the same impression at all, hopefully you're right.

I'm pretty much doing the same thing. Always happy when I see a community note with actual evidence that debunks bullpoop.

dude, it isn't because there was sensationalism against him that he isn't a crook and a rapist, you aren't going to convince me otherwise, just like I won't convince you to think like me.

Just don't get the whole "Putin is a good guy"...everyone knows the medias are pushing narratives. Why even say something like that ?

J'ai comme l'impression que tu veux juste te pogner pour te pogner...calme toi un peu.

Yeah, I love community notes. They are really unbiased, and I have seen them rip people a new one on both sides. They can be devestating to the original poster at times...lol
