Biden earns “Bottomless Pinocchio” from WaPo fact checker

Anonymous
Same WaPo hacks who make the worst endorsements in local DC races from the comfort of their Bethesda and Chevy Chase homes?

Color me shocked.

Exhibit B re: why many people are turned off by the Democratic Party.

I'm sure this person feels mighty fine with herself after making this video, but her preachy "know it all" tone is not going to connect with anyone.


And right here you have the classic Republican "logic."

"OK fine, you may be right and I may be completely wrong but you made me feel bad by telling me I was wrong so instead of voting for what's right I'm going to act like a petulant child and double down on being wrong. Also, no snowflake, no snowflake, YOU'RE the snowflake!"


She is so very convincing! Please do have her continue to make more videos.

Signed,
A Republican

Translation: I don't care that you're right, it hurts my feelings to point that out.

If they clear both of them out for someone like Newsom they look like racists / ableists. They've dug their own grave.


Newsom is too slick and fake to win a general election. A rich, entitled Californian white dude with slicked back hair is not winning states like Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

The problem with Dems is that they just don’t have an impressive roster of up and coming presidential candidates. DeSantis, Youngkin, and Lake have a much better chance of winning the presidency than Harris, Newsom, Buttigieg or anyone else the Dems have in the wings and it has nothing to with their politics. They are just more personable candidates. The Dem establishment is so out of touch that they have been trying to sell Beto as a national politician and he can’t even win elections in his own state.


Sure, it’s a problem that dems to have a rockstar like Obama up and coming to inspire the world. But it’s a far larger problem that republicans endorse fascism. I will take a party of principles over a party with an autocratic “face” any day.


Fascism is when government and large corporations collude in an authoritarian state. So, forcing everyone to take a vaccine produced by multinational corporations and getting people banned from social media for being skeptical of it is fascism. So is colluding with social media companies to ban dissenting opinions from social media.

Do you know what fascism means?


Thank you. Liberals throw around this word and associate it with Republicans. Pure projection on their part.

Right. Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham could really teach her a thing or two about charm and humility, couldn’t they?


https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ylmkVh-vCRw


Imagine any MSNBC host being confronted like this by a random, slightly threatening stranger. What would there reaction be? Tucker is actually very humble and self aware for such a rich and influential media figure.


Cool. Now do Paul pelosi being “confronted” by an extreme right winger. Or maga nuts storming there Capitol to hang Nancy pelosi and execute Mike pence.

Also I’m glad tucker Carlson is able to live in peace despite the hatred he angrily spews on air every night. Doubles down on what a hack he really is.


I can’t even begin to address what you’re saying. PP said Tucker wasn’t humble. How humble is it to offer fly fishing advice to a random crazy person filming you while you’re out fishing in Central Park with no security on your lunch break? That is several layers of humility.

And speaking of threats, Tucker had to move from DC to rural Maine after an Antifa mob threatened his wife and kids at his house and tried to bang down the door. What are you even talking about?

This and the attempted assasination of a Supreme Court justice don’t count as political intimidation and violence in your book I guess.


Are you referring to the “assassin” that self-reported himself before actually attempting any assassination? Must be exhausted walking around with that cross all the time. So afraid of people who are so incompetent they don’t even attempt a shot.

DP. Let's recall that this wacko traveled across country to carry out his plans. He turned himself in once he saw law enforcement guarding K's home.
Good thing the governor of MD. made sure the Justices were protected since our current AG didn't see any urgency.

It’s people like this that will cost the election for dems. Do you realize you’re MAGA but the dem version?

There’s a difference between a protest at your door, and violent murders breaking into your home.

And even if he is humble, which he isn’t, BIG DEAL! He is still a lying hack who has contributed to poisoning this country.

"Turned off by the Democratic party" = defensive b/c you know she's right.

Also, the description of her "tone" reeks of sexism.

Nah. The problem is and always has been that Dems are not a monolith and don't vote for party only. GOP voters will vote straight ticket no matter what a lying, grifting, treasonous POS is on the ticket. Dems are more critical of their candidates.

The other problem, is the extreme cheating and gerrymandering by GOP to win elections. They wouldn't win a fraction of the elections they do if they didn't do those things.

Facts.

Who cares? Pretty much every American should.
He has told so many lies that many of us discount anything he says anymore. He says he is doing "everything to bring down gas prices." Then, turns around and tells some environmental nut "No more drilling."
When you cannot believe what a person says to be true, you begin to doubt everything that comes out of his mouth. And, that is where we are.
And, I'd be surprised if our allies didn't do the same.


What is wrong with you? Did you not go to school?

Biden is not the liar. Trump and the Whole Republican party are.

Today they are already screaming the "election is compromised" mean while it hasn't even happened yet.

Maga is so stupid.

It was a fact that the 10 year old was raped. Only Glenn “Caping for the GOP” Kessler couldn’t see it. He never admitted he was wrong either. And he was wrong, and not only wrong but arrogant. Same thing here.


No, he simply waited until all the facts were in rather than relying on one person’s claim. What kind of journalist *wouldn’t* do that? I guess the kind you prefer - a biased one. It’s so weird you think he should somehow be biased in your favor. Only liberals would make that kind of ASSumption.

No, I don’t wonder about that because I don’t have trouble being taken seriously.

So nah, I am still waiting for Kessler to give himself a "Bottomless Pinocchio."


Uh - no, he did not. He said he was simply waiting for more than the one source to speak out about the case. As he put it, "journalism is an accumulation of facts," which it is. But it's so good of you to lie, again.

Link to his mea culpa then.


He should apologize for doing HIS JOB - that is, verifying leads, sources, stories?? You people are crazy.

Lol. He was wrong when he claimed that there was no ten year old rape victim who had to travel across state lines. He didn’t do his job that time, just as he isn’t doing his job this time.

The choice is the politics of the party of Joe Biden. The Democratic Party offers decency, thoughtful policy and DEMOCRACY. The Republican Party offers immoral criminals, corruption, projection, treason and sedition, zero policy and FASCISM. Covering these two entities as if they’re the same isn’t good journalism, it’s giving the GOP a leg up. It’s journalistic malpractice.

And you have no idea about any of this as evidenced by the fact that you couldn’t even follow this strand of the thread.


That you think the “job” of ANY journalist is somehow boosting one party over the other is beyond telling. No, twit. The job of a journalist - one with integrity, anyway - is reporting substantiated facts. He was not going to confirm or deny until he had the facts to back it up. It’s sickening that you don’t get that.

I have a feeling you don’t know the meaning of the word integrity.
