CBS will cave after 1 phone call.
Then the others will quietly follow in the middle of the night after their big strong public stand in defiance of "He Who Must Be Obeyed".

There is simply no equivalent, not even close, of this anywhere on the center or far left. There is no ‘both sides’ here, media.

"Together, the messages reveal a culture where racist, antisemitic and violent rhetoric circulate freely — and where the Trump-era loosening of political norms has made such talk feel less taboo among those positioning themselves as the party’s next leaders."

Can't call them fascists?

Of course they object to fact checking.
If they always got fact checked they would never win another election. They would never get appointments confirmed.
We would never have a dictator!

You're delusional. Vrabel was NEVER a dirty player. Not in Pittsburgh, not in New England. He was just damn good, on BOTH sides of the ball!

Putin's screwing with him. He knows it's for 2024 and trump wasn't in office. He's just rattling the monkey cage.

No. The key has been left under the mat.
We're not supposed to notice the comings and goings.
It's nighttime. It's dark out. And getting darker by the day.

Obviously they'll stand for anything.

If I were a Congressman from either party, I wouldn't stand for any of it!

maga is against antifa. So that must mean they're for fascism.

America fought WWII to stop fascism.

Apparently, according to maga, all the allied troops during WWII were terrorists.

I'm getting despondent trying to rationalize their thinking.

maga is a hypocritical, gaslighting sack of fascism!

MAGA wants to redefine anti-fascism so they can have a blanket term to "justify" murdering and kidnapping everyday Americans that question the Trump regime, call out its numerous criminal actions, and / or ask for the release of the Epstein files.

We are officially living out the part of history books that make school kids ask, "Why didn't anyone do anything to stop this?"

Steven Cheung displays his ignorance.
trump was not in office in 2024.

Also, trump does NOT have the "heart of a humanitarian".
He is a cruel, merciless, inhumane, uncompassionate, greedy, self-centered, egoistical, unsympathetic, inconsiderate, thoughtless, lying, gaslighting sack of fascism!
