We knew it all along from its founding in1996 that Faux Propaganda Channel was as phony as a $7 bill, but seeing it in black-and-white on the page in the Dominion lawsuit filings really puts things in a different perspective, on a different level of reality. So, allow me to congratulate Faux Prop for following up their public exposure that they knowingly lied to their audience about the 2020 election with a demonstration of knowingly lying to their audience about the insurrection on January 6, 2021.
As much as I have hated Rupert and EVERY cretin on the show since inception, I fear that the truth comes too late. I have seen no indication that anyone has changed course since the Dominion revelations. Seems that Fox still won’t tell the truth about their lying to their own viewers. For people who watch nothing else, it’s business as usual. Will the MSM be listened to. Not likely …
On target Jeri. When corruption has corrupted the inner core of a person, there is not a lot left, except malice, lying, and more corruption. Look at the core persons around Hitler (it pains me to use the name........) shiny and spiffed up in their uniforms on the outside pure darkness on the inside.......
THAT, is the key point, Karen. There are plenty of meek Repubs that are scrambling to moondance backwards from their obsequious worship of Fox News. I have talked to plenty of them during phone banking.
But what you have said is what We the People must prioritize…..no matter the vision of MTG with the gavel or Tuckems with his fake news remake vid of the insurrection or any number of affronts to decency and democracy from the MAGAts.
But of course all these revelations about Fox’s duplicity means nothing to the millions who eagerly watch the crap they hurl at their viewers like monkeys in a cage at the zoo. If anything, all that confirms their bias that the libruls who control the lamestream media are the greatest threat to their ‘Murikkka and Fox Noise is doing their patriotic duty in exposing all these threats to Fearless Leader and their beloved country…nothing will convince the 70+ million idiots who will vote for trump in a heartbeat in 2024 that they’ve been had. The GQP has shackled themselves to a dead hooker and they’re stuck with it as the stench gets stronger…
Exactly! 25,000+ were at Madison Square Garden for a Nazi rally ( or Amerikkkans for isolation and killing Jews) right before Hitler declared the 1,000 year Reich of the Aryan.
There will always be a % of fuckwads in this country who trade "safety" ( well just for white folks) for freedom and equality.
Maybe, maybe,maybe sweet,, baby blue eyed, blond haired jesus the fucking lazy msm, will cover FUCHS like they cover a local demolition derby. Tell us only when one of those asswipes dies.
Sending wishes for peace, strength and miracles big and small. May all concerned find blessings in each and every day. It's a damned heartbreaking path to be walking through. Hugs. ❤️
Ellen- I totally get it- was in the position myself in the beginning of the year. I hope you can find the space to care for yourself as you care for your loved one.
Another winner, TC. I just hope you are correct that all that is coming out that shows Faux "personalities" lying and all the rest will prove difficult for the GOP. They keep "getting away" with this cra!. Onward. What is clear is the Faux folk are false, false, false and they are going to continue to be false, false, false. There is no shame there. I hope that Dominion crushes them to tiny bits.
And the people who listen to Fox News will not hear, nor do they care to hear, about the truth. They have been corrupted to their soul, and nothing is going to bring them back. 
The real question is whether the mainstream media, and the elite news outlets, will finally acknowledge that Fox News is just a propaganda arm of a political movement that sees no value in having a representative democracy on the North American continent.  I’m not holding my breath.
This deserves mockery because it is a lame and transparent effort on the part of the 20% to 25% of the population (and their Fox News cheerleaders) which endorses and supports the insurrection to repackage their degenerate values as a kind of evidentiary breakthrough. The insurrection was traitorous and disgusting; clumsily edited video of an insurrectionist putting back upright a flipped over chair is hilarious because it’s so stupid. We should treat it as such.
Also, as Lawrence pointed out tonight, all of Fucker Carlson's "new" video proving no attack comes to a whole FOUR MINUTES.
This is hopeful news— maybe we can get the Justice Department to rule that media can’t distribute false information as “news”—wouldn’t that be lovely and kill the Murdochs with a huge loss of money which is what they can’t live without. Huh???
It's futile to try to get the magas and Fox fans to consider facts or reality. They are happy knowing they don't have to because they have found their dim and likeminded. All we can do is try to keep others from being lured into the abyss. I will do what the comedians are doing, pointing and laughing...especially at the churchies who led their congregations into that nether world.
I’m hopeful. I feel the tide turning…but also remain wary.
And then there’s the “ blogger bill”. Maybe I’m naive, but I don’t believe it has a snowball’s chance in Florida of passing. But if it does…maybe TC could bail us out as he’d be required to report anyone who “paid” for the post. Or maybe we would need to bail TC out? as the “ lobbyist” ? I’m confused!!
As if all of the above isnt enough to tick you off - heres a little information thats really scary:
What worries him most is that these plastic-contaminated Andean condor populations live in protected natural areas, relatively far from human populations and, therefore, far from garbage dumps. “This worries us even more, because condors are at the top of the food chain. Finding evidence that they are contaminated with plastic means that the links below the condor are also contaminated,” Gamarra says.
This is likely to come back and bite them..... Of course, some of the "insurrectionists" were non-violent - out of a crowd of tens of thousands, you will have people who just got caught up in the moment and went into the Capitol to look around. Many of them had never been to Washington and really were "tourists" in their own minds, there to "peacefully protest.' They are the ones being charged and convicted of simple trespass - because they did not do anything else once they were in the building. And God knows how much footage there is of people walking through the Capitol rotunda taking selfies and photos of the place - Tucker Carlson will show as much of that as he can. But we also saw the true insurrectionists, the ones who went up the steps in assault breaching formation, hands on shoulders in tactical gear and camo, the ones who led the violent attacks on the House chamber and got into the Senate chamber - the ones who desecrated our national house of government. Tucker won't be showing any of that - but Jack Smith will, and that is our hope. Bring on the 'Spirit of Torquemada' tour bus..... May your wish for 2024 be a blessing.....
I should comment here that for all the justified criticism of the DOJ and Garland for dragging their feet to get started on this investigation, his choice of Jack Smith will redeem them. I think Smith has decided this is the time to clean house, and I would not be at all surprised if he went after Trump, everyone in his administration who was involved, and even members of the House and Senate (lookin' at YOU, Chuck Grassley) who took part in the actual organization and planning for the insurrection - several members of Congress have been accused of leading "tours" of the Capitol days before the assault, including basement areas and passages that would have been of great use to the attackers during the insurrection.....
Why isn't it pointed out, each time the "tour" led by Rep. Loudermilk is referenced, that tourist visits *were not allowed* during two years of the pandemic. The Capitol wasn't opened for tours until March 22, 2022 and then *only* for member-led or staff-led tours, reservations required. The Loudermilk "tour" was on Jan. 5, 2021. The Senate, only, was allowed to reopen to limited tours in Dec. 2021, more than 11 months after the Jan. 6 invasion of the Capitol but areas allowed for visit were very limited and required to be escorted by a Senate staff member.
From NBC News (12-13-21): "The Senate sergeant-at-arms has relaxed its pandemic policy on public tours in the Capitol, saying some guests can once again visit the building.
The new guidance allows small staff-led tours in a limited area on the Senate side. Two tours of up to six guests each will be open to visitors every half-hour between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Monday through Friday, according to a memo circulated to Senate offices and obtained by CQ Roll Call.
The tours are limited to 30 minutes and will be allowed to include only the Crypt, the Rotunda and the Brumidi Corridor. Areas like the Capitol Visitor Center, the Old Senate Chamber and the Old Supreme Court Chamber will remain off-limits."
From ABC News (March 28, 2022): "The U.S. Capitol finally reopened its doors Monday after being closed for nearly two years due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
It will be a limited reopening that will involve member-led and staff-led tours of up to 15 people as well as school groups that have registered in advance, according to a statement from Maj. Gen. William Walker, the House sergeant-at-arms, and Dr. Brian Monahan, the Capitol’s attending physician."
So how was Rep. Loudermilk allowed to lead what appears to have been a wide-ranging tour of the Capitol building during a period when tourist visits were banned? Where are the records of who was on said tour given the requirement for advance notice? Where did said tour actually go and who took photos of what? I dearly hope this is something that Jack Smith has included in his investigations.
There is very clear surveillance footage of Loudermilk's "tour" and it was entirely bogus - the footage I have seen was taken in the basement, in corridors that are never open to the public. Members of the "tour" were seen taking photos of security stations, corridors, stairs, etc., all of real interest to future "tourists" who wanted to know how to navigate the less-known passageways in the Capitol. I would certainly hope Mr. Smith goes to town on Washington.....
Well, Mark Meadows does not impress me as someone who would gladly sign up for 20 years in the sneezer just to protect the likes of Donald John Trump, and Meadows absolutely was at the very center of the whole conspiracy - his cellphone will have all the messages from all the others who contacted him - including many in the government agencies who may have wiped their own phones. Give him complete immunity (he has no political career left anyway) and force him to sing like Pavarotti. The whole house of cards will come down as the other miscreants head for the plea bargain tables like rats off a sinking ship..... Letting Meadows skate could result in getting 20-30 others in the loop, not a bad ROI indeed.....

I hate to say it, but I think you're right.
The assholes can enforce what they want but they won’t shut any of our mouths.

I am in care giving mode, so haven't posted much lately. But I read all your comments and echo them with DITTO.
Care giving comes first. May you find the strength you need to give the comfort and care needed. Peace.
Thank you. It's cancer.
So sorry to hear that. Please take care of yourself as well. Been there.......
Yes, take care Ellen. My heart is with you❤️
...and mine.
Sending wishes for peace, strength and miracles big and small. May all concerned find blessings in each and every day. It's a damned heartbreaking path to be walking through. Hugs. ❤️
Ellen, Grateful you can have a little “respite” with TC et al. Caregiving is certainly a journey…💙
Ellen- I totally get it- was in the position myself in the beginning of the year. I hope you can find the space to care for yourself as you care for your loved one.

Josh Marshall at TPM has good advice:
This deserves mockery because it is a lame and transparent effort on the part of the 20% to 25% of the population (and their Fox News cheerleaders) which endorses and supports the insurrection to repackage their degenerate values as a kind of evidentiary breakthrough. The insurrection was traitorous and disgusting; clumsily edited video of an insurrectionist putting back upright a flipped over chair is hilarious because it’s so stupid. We should treat it as such.
Also, as Lawrence pointed out tonight, all of Fucker Carlson's "new" video proving no attack comes to a whole FOUR MINUTES.
And “stupid” is a choice.
I cast a vote for taking Josh Marshall’s advice. It has worked powerfully for me.
Salud, TC.
