  1. I wish I agreed that was coming, I really do, because I literally can't imagine a good future for our society if this dual reality shit continues unabated. But I just don't see 1A getting rolled back like that, not in this country. And even if there was some kind of fairness or bullshit doctrine imposed to regulate disinformation on broadcasts, FNC would just have their sheep streaming it over the net in no time. There are just no frameworks in our laws and our information technology to deal with this garbage.
  2. That's what's I find mindblowing; not that Fox News is so good at pulling wool over eyes, but the abundant willful ignorance that's required to fuel it. I just can't get over how fucking insane it is living in this post-truth era, especially that it's taking place in a time where nearly infinite (true) information is a couple clicks away for almost everyone.
  3. Another lie they're going to stick to is that Colorado has stricter voting laws then Georgia. This Pirro clip was the first time I've heard them get into specifics by saying that CO requires photo ID to vote. Which, of course, they don't. Somehow it still surprises me that a major "news network" just blatantly lies to their viewers without any compunction. It's amazing that they get away with it in a day and age when everyone has a computer in their pocket that can easily debunk their nonsense.
  4. He's like an advanced iteration of Tucker, after he finds the answers to all the questions and mysteries that make him perpetually appear confused.
  5. The line would be crossed around the time you start making plans to detain the accused (conspiracy to kidnap). The LARPing defense likely won't fly.
  6. But looking at this loser's vexatious abuse of the courts for years on end, you have to admit that it's a disgrace this guy hasn't been disbarred. Which I think is more what @Fudge Nuggetsis getting at.
  7. Kangaroo courts aren't illegal...they're just frowned upon, like masturbating on an airplane. I don't know of a particular law either, but as we know, there's a federal law against more or less everything. I'm sure they could cook something up.
  8. Seems like they could have obscured the name, but whatevs. Also kind of weird that they didn't ID the girl because she turned 18 a few months before the incident. I guess there's a grace period after turning 18 before the media will identify your hooking. So unless I'm missing something, with the venmo we don't have Gaetz dead to rights on an underage girl just yet. I'm guessing the Beast doesn't know the ages of the other two girls yet?
  9. The best part is that he preemptively sued the bar displinary cmte members even before they made a recommendation on his punishment. Then they issued a 200 page analysis of all his shenanigans and somehow reasoned against disbarment, but recommended 33 months suspension. And he for some reason gets 3 months. After 3 decades of this shit he finally gets suspended for 90 whole days.
  10. Does Daily Beast have receipts/screenshots? A little curious why I've not seen the smoking gun itself yet.
  11. These assholes are almost always the guys born on third base who've always gotten away with all kinds of shit because of daddy's money and power. Then they eventually go a bridge too far. Being in Trump's orbit probably reinforced that mindset bigly.
  12. Gaslighting is one of the very few things they are sorta good at. The others are ratfucking, obstruction, and voter suppression.
  13. I believe they take an extremely dim view of even conspiring to do such a thing.
  14. What's concerning though is that Trump stumbled onto a playbook for how to easily manipulate and rile up 40% of the country. And the secret's out that you can bring the government to the brink of collapse by, inter alia, installing a puppet AG, ignoring all norms, and shamelessly weaponizing your cult, twitter, and Fox News to the maximum. Now that playbook, the cult, and the GQP are just waiting to be exploited by the Uberdrumpf. And the rednecks were certainly not the most effective paramilitary in this coup attempt, but maybe they've learned some things too.
  15. Check out his wiki. This loser has been begging for disbarment for decades.
  16. Imagine being an old bastard like Larry and spending your precious little time left on nonsense like this. Actually it's apparent from his wiki page that he's wasted most of his life on similarly pointless bullshit. What an embarrassment. And it's a total joke that he hasn't been disbarred.
  17. I have to say again that despite having a terribly low opinion of the average American, I had no idea such a large swath of our country would be so easily enchanted/cowed by a blatantly moronic figure and vacuous movement. It's terrifying to imagine what would have happened if Trump's despotic designs were matched by anything approaching competence and shrewdness. Or what will happen when the next demagogue is so equipped.
  18. The right is all id; they have no ego or superego. They don't feel embarrassment or shame.
  19. Lolz. This clown should never been called on again.
  20. Why do you doubt it's the dumbest in history? I can't even imagine what dumber than this looks like
  21. Who could have possibly foreseen this?
  22. If they unbundled, I highly doubt the overall price would go up for me. What's the absolute maximum ESPN could expect to get enough people to pay per month for all their channels...$25? I'd just need that and FS1 and maybe CNN. I'd guess I could get those for under $75. Anyway, how do you figure QVC is subsidizing my cable? I'm wondering whether you meant home shopping viewers, as just a random example, or is there something I don't know about home shopping channels (very likely)?
  23. This passing would really piss me off.
  24. True. Perhaps this was just the most efficient interview ever.
