aaand still more.
Honey BoeBoe demonstrates CRT in action.

One of the co-conspirators of Trump's attempted bloody coup objects to a song that refers to peaceful protest marches and ends with:

Lest our hearts drunk with the wine of the world, we forget Thee;
Shadowed beneath Thy hand,
May we forever stand,
True to our God,
True to our native land.


It makes sense in a twisted way.

Hannity admits it: He knew Trump lied as legal earthquake rocks Fox News empire

A New York State appeals court rejected Fox News’ attempt to shut down a multibillion-dollar defamation suit against the network. The company that brought the case, Smartmatic, accuses Fox News of spreading lies that the voting-technology company helped rig the 2020 election in favor of President Biden. The decision comes as Dominion Voting Systems’ wages a similar $1.6 billion lawsuit against Fox News. MSNBC Chief Legal Correspondent Ari Melber reports on this developing legal story.

Carlson is just such a fucking douchebag fuckface useless waste of a human life...i hope they find not only fox guilty as hell, but carlson, hannity, ingraham et.al....All of them knew what they were doing, all of them spoke to each other about it, all of them knew they were lying, and decided to destroy a company so their company wouldn't be destroyed, so their ratings wouldn't fall behind...
Fucking subhuman filth.

It's not the government suing them, it's another corporation for damages they caused, 1st does not apply.


Attorneys for the cable news giant argued in a counterclaim unsealed Thursday that the lawsuit is an assault on the First Amendment.

The first amendment doesn't protect slander or libel....
The real question is who will trump's hand picked perjurers on the supreme court side with? Because that is where this will end up.

If they do America will be "fact free", Trump demonstrated the destructive social effects of lying, if anything the courts should ensure public integrity as much as possible. They are not neutral in the matter of truth and lies, nor are they supposed to be, its why people swear oaths in court and go to jail if they lie under oath. Foxnews knowingly lied to the public about these companies and thus damaged them, they did it for money.

All true...But also true that I and many others have ZERO faith in the court after trump corrupted it...Racist, misogynist, perjurous religious zealots fill five of the seats...So who the fuck knows where their loyalties lie, or what they'll do? All i count on them for now is disappointment and a source of outrage.

i like the idea of the Lincoln project, but they kind of preach exclusively to the choir...
If they really wanted to get through to republicans, they would be making very different videos,
with someone who looks like Beau, espousing republicans beliefs at first, and then sort of self discovering that those beliefs are lies.
Shouting at the enemy that they suck, and their leaders are shit, hasn't ever been a very effective propaganda strategy.

They are about drumming up money from their "base too", one of their functions is to arouse democrats and speak to independents because some of them are persuadable. They are doing good IMHO, there is fascism in America and it needs to be pointed out and attacked any way you can.
