Nice CK.

Trump’s ‘love’ of the military is worse than phony

What an idiot journalist..... can we please get some decent journalists back in America?

Was a matter of time before the antagonistic right promoted that.

No chance.

You just posted an anti-Trump ad. This ad is asserting that the Republicans didn't hold a fair Impeachment trial in the Senate, under Sen. Mitch McConnell's guidance, because the Republicans refused to call any new witnesses, such John Bolton or Igor Fruman. The House of Representatives doesn't hold the trial, the Senate does.

Democrat Congressional Candidate Urges Twitter Followers to ‘Report’ Trump Supporters

Nate McMurray, the Democrat candidate for New York’s 27th Congressional District, urged Twitter followers Wednesday to “report” Trump supporters.

“When you see fake videos, when you see racism, when you hear support for Trump, do not roll your eyes, do not play nice, do not worry about hurting someone’s feelings, CALL IT OUT — REPORT IT — FIGHT IT,” he wrote:

Thursday, immigration lawyer Matthew Kolken shared a screenshot of McMurray’s tweet and said, “This is a dangerous chill of 1st Amendment freedoms”:



Democrat House Candidate Urges Followers to 'Report' Trump Supporters

It's so funny, in discussing the First Amendment, when people who have no idea what they are talking about repeat comments from people who also have no idea what they are talking about.

Are you talking about EL posting up all those garbage tweets from Twitter ?

Not an ad ..... it's a meme. It's a dig at the stupid Democrats bad behavior. Schiff holding impeachment hearings in the basement & dumb stuff like that.

I'm curious, is anyone gonna defend CK for his dumbassery on this one?

 

[ajvol01]

That didn't come from my head, genius. Can you read? That came from Thomas Jefferson... one of the men who was canonized on Mount Rushmore, in case you didn't know.

Uhhhh

With all of the contempt that Donald Trump has shown for the press since taking office, and considering that he is spending Independence Day at Mount Rushmore, I think this quote from one of the men on that mountain, is fitting:

 

[BowlBrother85]

Uhhhh

Uhhh, I was obviously referring to Thomas Jefferson's quote which you didn't include in your reply. I'll say it again:

"... were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter..." - Thomas Jefferson

 

[ajvol01]

Thomas Jefferson believed in a free press. Jefferson viewed a free press as an essential check on governmental power, and the corruption that too much centralized authority can lead to. Since taking office, Donald Trump has attempted to place limitations on the freedoms of the press, and he has aggressively sought to suppress free speech, whenever this speech is critical of him, including a book authored by his own niece, Mary Trump. Also, Donald Trump has taken vindictive action against the owner (Jeff Bezos) of a newspaper (The Washington Post) which has been critical of him. Suffice to say, Thomas Jefferson did not consider the press to be the "enemy of the people". Only corrupt politicians, such as Richard Nixon and Donald Trump, think that way.

The funny part is you’re serious

The funny part is you’re serious

The funny part is that you seem to think that you are more enlightened as to the importance of a free press servicing as a check against public corruption, than Thomas Jefferson was.

Do you believe Thomas Jefferson could watch CNN now and still believe that they are serving as the gate keepers he was talking about ?

Looks pretty good, IMO

And I was obviously referring to what you said before the Jefferson quote

Only someone with an IQ less than 80 would think the press was serving as anything beyond a propaganda wing for their chosen party.

This looks awesome!!!

Yes, please!

I'm watching the Fox YouTube stream much better than the broadcast version.

I don't think TJ foresaw the free press taking political sides.

 

[Delmar]

Looks pretty good, IMO As missing as his leadership has been, the only thing he deserves to be on is on a milk carton. Besides, the orange paint they’d have to use would just wash off the rock so it would never work. Just ludicrous that anybody would dare to compare that despicable moron to the 4 great men on Rushmore. Write it down. He is going to go down as the worst and most disliked President in the history of this country and I doubt seriously that will qualify him for Rushmore.
